Hong Kong movies: Do you love your sister-in-law or gold?

Chapter 29: The Ni family and Dongxing are fighting?
Liu Jianming interrupted, "Inspector Ma, the three of us should be discussing the surveillance plan. You are responsible for observing and taking notes."

Ma Jun is a man with a hot temper and a strong desire for control. He obviously forgot the police academy's arrangement for this assessment task, as if he thought he was directing three young people to solve a major case.

Liu Jianming doesn't indulge him.

In this grouping, without Zhao Jiabao as the supporting actor, and Li Baiqiao being a relatively dull person, Liu Jianming had to handle it on his own.

"For our surveillance mission this time, mobility and camouflage are equally important."

"To ensure mobility, the four of us can't just have one car. I'll carry one on my motorcycle, and the other two will ride in the car. We can flexibly change the tracking vehicles in different areas."

Ma Ailin and Li Baiqiao both agreed with Liu Jianming's arrangement.

So Liu Jianming and Ma Ailin pretended to be a couple, with Liu Jianming riding a motorcycle with the lively girl, looking like the most fashionable gangsters on the streets of Hong Kong in the early 90s.

Ma Jun took Li Baiqiao and drove to follow Ni Yongxiao, and they maintained radio contact.

After two days of tracking, Li Baiqiao, while looking through Ni Yongxiao's information in the car, concluded, "I asked my classmates in North America to obtain Ni Yongxiao's transcripts and course attendance records in the United States."

"He didn't register falsely. For the past five years, he has been attending a full-time CPA program at a prestigious American university, and he got A+ on all his exams."

"Is it possible that Ni Kun is the type who leaves all illegal business to the core members of the gang, leaving his own children completely clean?"

Liu Jianming said, "Ni Kun is dead. The Ni family society is in a critical period of inheritance from father to son, or when powerful generals are promoted. He is the most active of the Ni brothers. Keeping an eye on him will definitely yield something interesting."

Liu Jianming then turned to Ma Jun and asked, "Inspector Ma, we filmed Ni Yongxiao interacting with two foreigners the day before yesterday. Have their identities been verified?"

According to the police academy's assessment process, the intelligence obtained by Liu Jianming and his team every day is summarized and reported to the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau by auxiliary instructor Ma Jun.

"O Ji replied that the information technology company where these two foreigners worked had business dealings with Ni Yongxiao's accounting firm in Hong Kong Island."

"The identities of the two foreigners have been verified. They have no criminal record and are not suspicious at the moment." Ma Jun did not tell Liu Jianming that the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau gave his intelligence on "two foreigners" a D rating.

That's meaningless junk information.

Li Baiqiao suggested, "Every night, Ni Yongxiao goes to the intersection near their villa to buy cigarettes. As the heir to the family, it's obviously unreasonable for him to go there in person every night to buy cigarettes!"

"Should we notify the CIB and focus on investigating the background of the cigarette vendor?"

Liu Jianming explained, "The Ni family's noodle business is so dominant in Tsim Sha Tsui that they couldn't possibly place a key figure in such a prominent position."

"Ni Yongxiao's late-night cigarette purchases are precisely his father's habit. By continuing some of his father's behaviors, he is conveying to the outside world that he is the heir to the Ni family and the leader of this generation."

Ma Jun recorded Li Baiqiao's proposal and Liu Jianming's judgment.

Ma Jun was originally particularly disgusted with this task of being a "police cadet nanny and a mouthpiece".

But during these two days together, Ma Jun became more and more interested in Liu Jianming. He had sharp judgment and a talent for undercover investigation.

This guy is perfect for undercover work! The three South Vietnamese brothers have always been so arrogant and even got themselves into the police band.

Would you consider applying to assign this guy to the South Vietnamese gang?
When Ma Jun thought of this, the sound of Liu Jianming's cell phone ringing came from the radio.

Liu Jianming answered the phone and found out it was Zhao Jiabao calling from a public telephone booth.

"Brother Ming, we're in trouble here. It feels like something big is going to happen!" "Our group is following Han Chen's boss, Dilu. Today, his little brother Shaqiang invited him to a sauna."

"They went to a place in Mong Kok that was closed by Tung Sing Ba."

"Inside, we saw a group of cadets from Class D following East Star. They were disguised as guests."

"Then Dilu's little brother, Sha Qiang, said that the girls in the place were too ugly and turned him off, so he wanted to destroy the place."

"I ran out when the fight started, but the cadets from Class B didn't seem to fight back in order to avoid exposing their identities."

After listening to Zhao Jiabao's narration, Liu Jianming asked him to continue observing and not to rashly enter the Babi place.

Liu Jianming then contacted Ma Jun via radio: "Inspector Ma, that was a call from cadet Zhao Jiabao asking for help. Our two surveillance teams are stuck at the scene of the fight between Dongxing and Nijia."

"I think we should go provide support."

"No." Before Ma Jun could reply, Li Baiqiao objected: "We are accepting a secret surveillance mission. Each team has its own goals."

"Now that the other teams are in trouble but haven't been exposed, we can notify uniformed officers to rush to the scene. We should not take our eyes off our target, Ni Yongxiao."

Liu Jianming had already put on his helmet, started the scooter, and handed another helmet to Ma Ailin in the back seat:
"There's a disagreement in the team right now. Ailin, your vote will decide whether we go to support or stay here and defend."

Ma Ailin took the helmet and put it on, saying, "Ni Yongxiao isn't showing any suspicious activity at the moment, so monitoring him isn't urgent. On the contrary, our colleagues are at the scene of the gang fight, so that's clearly more urgent."

"I support the immediate support of my colleagues."

Ma Ailin's choice was within Liu Jianming's expectations. The moment he handed over the helmet, he started the motorcycle.

Liu Jianming drove his motorcycle quickly towards the parking lot in Mong Kok, and Ma Jun followed him in his car.

Liu Jianming and his three companions rushed to the door of Babi's sauna and found that not only Zhao Jiabao was there, but also Qu Sir, the assistant instructor of their group.

Liu Jianming asked Qu Sir, "What's the environment like inside?"

"First, it was Dilu's little brother Shaqiang who messed up the place. Who would have thought that among Shaqiang's little brothers, there was actually Chen Yongren."

"The D-class assistant instructor recognized Chen Yongren and told the cadets to pretend to be passersby and not resist."

"At first, Sha Qiang and his men were just showing off, but when we were pulling out, we saw a large group of knifemen from Dongxing arriving."

"This is Babi's territory after all. I'm sure Shaqiang and his gang will be beaten pretty badly."

Sir Qu's tone was a bit gloating. If there weren't a group of cadets and instructors from Class D inside, the police force would usually be happy to see an indoor fight between the two clubs.

Liu Jianming frowned slightly. It didn't matter how badly Sha Qiang was beaten, but if they fell here, Chen Yongren would probably be beaten badly.

Liu Jianming turned his head and stared at Ma Jun, who had been silent since getting out of the car, and said, "Inspector Ma, I'm going to take care of this matter today!"

Ma Jun immediately understood what Liu Jianming meant. This was not a question to the auxiliary instructor as a "trainee police officer under assessment", but Liu Jianming wanted to settle today's fight in his capacity as a police officer.

Army Ma said ruthlessly, “I’ll go in with you.”
