Chapter 3 is about identity, but more importantly, it’s about timing!

Chapter 3 is about identity, but more importantly, it’s about timing!
According to the address provided by Sister Mary, Liu Jianming came to the Yau Ma Tei fruit market the next day.

On the surface, this is the largest fruit wholesale market in Hong Kong Island, but before the Bay Area's nightclubs and gambling stalls became lucrative in the 90s, this was a battleground for Hong Kong Island's underworld groups.

Among the dozens of social organizations in Hong Kong Island, the one with the most fierce competition and the most killings is Yau Tsim Mong.

Yau Tsim Mong is the general name for Yau Ma Tei, Tsim Sha Tsui and Mong Kok.

He Liansheng, one of the three major social groups in Hong Kong Island with tens of thousands of followers, had the loudest slogan in the leadership election more than ten years later: "Take over to Tsim Sha Tsui".

Yau Ma Tei is even more chaotic and full of bloodshed than Tsim Sha Tsui.

At the Yau Ma Tei fruit market, thousands of tons of fruit are brought in and out every day, and loading and unloading requires a large number of strong laborers.

There is a large population flow and a great demand for strong labor, so this is the easiest place for Vietnamese people without identity cards, Thai elders, and the Big Circle Gang to hide.

The British Hong Kong government couldn't send the British or South Asians to move the fruit, so it turned a blind eye to this area.

Liu Jianming bought a Monkey King mask at the fruit basket market, and then entered the rental house where the big circle leopard was hiding.

The stairs made a creaking sound as he stepped on them, but Liu Jianming did not try to hide it.

Wearing the Monkey King mask, Liu Jianming pushed open the door. The room was simply furnished and faced with the black muzzle of a gun.

"Brother, if you want to perform monkey shows, you've come to the wrong place." There was only a shirtless burly man sitting in the room.

Although he was wrapped in bandages from his shoulders to his ribs, his strong muscles and dark skin did not make him look weak due to his injuries. Instead, he gave people a sense of danger like a cheetah, ready to prey on anyone.

It is worthy of being the future Criminal Police Corps of Guangdong Province, and now the "violent gangster" Big Circle Leopard.

Liu Jianming ignored the threat of the big leopard's gun, moved another chair into the room, and sat down opposite the big leopard.

"I don't like having a gun pointed at me. If you're brave enough, shoot me. Otherwise, put it away."

"You are a guest from afar, so I forgive you for pointing a gun at me once, but only this time."

The Big Circle Leopard wanted to hear Liu Jianming's intentions, so he placed his gun on the table beside him, but within a second's range he could grab the gun and shoot.

"I have no ill intentions. We came here today because we each have our own difficulties, but we can work together!"

The big leopard thought he had guessed your intention and said, "Have you committed a crime and are trying to escape to the mainland?"

Liu Jianming smiled and said, "I don't need to run away, and I know you won't be back in the short term, right, Officer Shi?"

Frightened by Liu Jianming's sudden address, Big Circle Leopard instinctively wanted to pick up the gun on the table.

But this time, Liu Jianming's Browning was pointed at the Leopard even faster. "I said, I only forgive once, so don't even think about drawing your gun."

The righteous face of the big leopard sculpture was naturally good at hiding his emotional fluctuations. He asked in a cold tone, "Who are you? How do you know my identity?"

To show his sincerity, Liu Jianming also put away his gun and said: "At this moment, I am still a gangster with a gang background, but in a few days, I will become a member of the Royal Hong Kong Police."

The big leopard was stunned. The man in the Wukong mask was too frank. He asked in confusion, "You called me Officer Shi. Are you planning to surrender yourself to me?"

Liu Jianming shook his finger. "Who do you think will die first, my boss or me, if I confess to those British Hong Kong police officers?" Liu Jianming then pointed north and said, "I know Officer Shi is from the mainland. I want to contact Officer Shi to file a report."

This is the solution Liu Jianming came up with.

For the gangster Liu Jianming who took on the "undercover police mission", even if he later killed Han Chen and other undercover agents from other gangs in the police force.

If he kills everyone who has listened to the tape in the future, he will not be able to realize his wish of "being a good person". This is a dead end!
If he refused Han Chen's mission, he had already met the other six undercover agents. In order to prevent him from leaking secrets to the police, Han Chen would now send all his subordinates to hunt him down.

So is it possible to secretly surrender to the Hong Kong police and then become a "double undercover" for both sides? Yang Jinrong in "Infernal Affairs 3" tried this approach, and ended up being shot in the head.

Liu Jianming's solution was to establish connections with the mainland before becoming Han Chen's undercover agent in the police force. With the support of the North, he would be able to navigate the police force and the underworld without being liquidated.

Of course, the deeper reason for searching for the giant leopard in the first place was also because of the inner cry inherited from Liu Jianming's previous life: "I am patriotic!"

Liu Jianming suddenly spoke his mind, and Big Leopard was stunned. He then sneered, "Who are you? You also said that you are just a mole sent to the police force by the boss and will only be a black cop in the future. What right do you have to talk about patriotism?"

Liu Jianming leaned back in his chair and said calmly, "Identity is important, but timing is even more important!"

Liu Jianming certainly understood what the big circle leopard meant. If it were still the new century and the overall situation in the north had been determined, then only the leaders of the community would have the capital to "talk about patriotism."

Other gangsters have no right to surrender except to change their careers or be swept up.

But compared to identity, what is more important is timing. It is now 1991.

"There are still six years until the big day. These are the six years that Imperial Britain has been desperately trying to discredit the North and stir up trouble in Hong Kong. And during these six years, the North has been unable to openly operate in Hong Kong."

"So compared to a traitor who has climbed to a high position and then talks about fake patriotism after the overall situation has been determined, it is more important for a young person under 20 to talk about true patriotism during the most difficult times."

Liu Jianming's words once again stunned Big Leopard. He became even more curious about the young man hiding behind the Wukong mask. He understood the subtext of Liu Jianming's words.

In the past two years, the British Empire has used the media to continuously discredit the North, which has led to a rise in the resistance of Hong Kong residents to exclusion. This is the low point of the North's influence in Hong Kong.

On the other hand, Big Circle Leopard came to Hong Kong Island to accept an important mission, but when he was disguised as a robbery, he accidentally encountered the PTU patrolling Hong Kong Island. Not only was he injured, he was also wanted.

If the Big Circle Leopard is formally arrested, he will have no choice but to return to the North in disgrace. Not only will he fail to complete his important mission, but his future will also be bleak.

So although the young man in front of us has a low status, the "opportunity" for cooperation at this time is indeed rare.

"How do you want to cooperate? Do you want me to acknowledge your identity and work for me in the future? After 97, I will give you proof?"

Liu Jianming shook his head: "I'm not working for you, I'm the organization behind you, so we're working together as equals."

"Let's agree on a code name, and we'll maintain intelligence exchanges for the next few years. If you're in any danger here, I'll rescue you."

"As for the future, if I need to reveal my identity and tell you my code name, you just need to endorse it for me."

The big circle leopard asked, "What code name do you want to use?"

Liu Jianming pointed at the mask and said, "Just [Wukong]!"
