Hong Kong Tycoon: Starting from Delivering Dongfeng Express

Chapter 23 Infiltration
It was the middle of the night, darkness enveloped the earth, and the entire village was silent. There was no sound except the chirping of insects, and everyone had fallen asleep.

A figure poked out from Uncle Ren's house, looked around for a while, especially after seeing the pitch-black courtyard opposite, he strode out, completely unaware of the silent figure hanging behind him.

Ye Dongsheng followed the person in front of him through most of the village and came to a remote courtyard. Then he slid along the wall as nimbly as a cat.

He looked into the house with the help of the light and saw a man with his hands raised and a gun pointed at him. It was none other than Shadan!
"Ah Hai, what are you doing? Do you want to kill me and take it all for yourself?"

As Ah Hai searched him, he said, "You are so cruel that you even killed your own brother. I'm afraid I will be the next one!"

"Shadan" smiled disdainfully and said, "As a fool, it's a waste to live."

"Hmph! I don't care what your plans are, I want the money now! 750 million, not a penny less!"

"Silly" shook his head: "The money is in consecutive numbers and cannot be spent directly. Be patient and wait for a while."

"You told him the same thing before Ren died! I can't wait that long! Are we going to break up or not?"

"The police are keeping such a close eye on us. If we divide it now, it will be bad luck for everyone!"

Ah Hai excitedly put his gun to the head of "Shadan" and said, "I don't care! If you can't get the money, I will kill you right now! At worst, you can go to Stanley to spend time in jail, but that's better than being a poor ghost now!"

A moment later, two men came out of the house one after the other. "Shadan" carried a hoe and walked into the mountains, while Ah Hai followed him with a gun.

About an hour later, "Shadan" stopped under an old crooked tree and started digging with a hoe. After digging a hole about 1 meter deep, he lifted a large cloth bag from the hole.

Ah Hai shone the flashlight on the bag and was already excited when he saw it. He urged, "Open it, open it quickly!"

"Silly" looked up at him, then untied the rope on the cloth bag, opened the bag, and poured out stacks of banknotes directly from it.

Ah Hai was attracted by the money that was about to be distributed to him, and his face showed ecstasy. However, the next moment when he looked up, he saw "Shadan" taking out a pistol from the cloth bag.

"Bang bang bang!"

After three consecutive gunshots, Ah Hai fell to the ground and died.

"Silly" snorted coldly and put the money on the ground back into the cloth bag. Then he picked up the hoe and continued digging the hole. When he felt it was almost done, he kicked Ah Hai into the hole, buried him on the spot, and pulled some weeds and plants around to cover it up.

After cleaning up here, "Shadan" picked up the cloth bag and walked in another direction. After a while, he found a tree again, walked around it a few times, marked it, and then started digging again, burying the cloth bag inside.

After all this was done, "Shadan" wiped the sweat from his forehead and walked down the mountain.

Watching the disappearing figure of "Shadan", Ye Dongsheng appeared, walked under the tree, and raised the corners of his mouth.

Haha, that’s really interesting!
……

It was already noon, but "Shadan" was still asleep, after all, he had been busy almost all night.

But the next moment, he was awakened by a slap in the face.

He opened his eyes, covered half of his face, and looked at his uncle in front of the bed with gloomy eyes.

However, Uncle Ren was also glaring at him with a sour face at this time: "Let me ask you, you said you dealt with Ah Hai yesterday?"

"Yes, it's buried in the mountains. No one will find it."

Uncle Ren kicked him and said, "You're just as good as your brother! Word has spread throughout the village now. Someone found a body on the mountain!"

This time, "Silly" jumped up from the bed: "How is it possible?! It must not be Ah Hai!" How could such a remote place be discovered in just a few hours?
The two of them didn't care about anything else at this time. They walked out together and followed some villagers who came to join in the fun and ran up the mountain.

Uncle Ren was still cursing as we walked along the road: "You were so careless, that's why you brought the police to Lantau Island! Now you can't even bury a body properly!"

"Silly" let his uncle scold him, his mind completely on Ah Hai's body. He felt that there must be a mistake, and that the person found was definitely not Ah Hai. But the ominous premonition in his heart was getting stronger and stronger.

When they got to the mountain, they found that the area around the crooked old tree where Ah Hai's body was buried had been blocked by the police, and all the hope in "Shadan"'s heart was shattered.

Uncle Ren looked at his nephew's face and knew what had happened. He asked the most concerned question: "Where's the money?!"

"Silly" suddenly felt something in his heart and said to his uncle with a sad face: "The money is also there..."

"you!"

……

At the same time, Ye Dongsheng had sneaked into Uncle Ren's warehouse with Yue Guang and Amei.

"Hey, you guys really have to come with me?"

Yue Guang clenched his fists and said, "They accused us of making a false police report yesterday, but we won't swallow that insult. We must find evidence!"

Amei also nodded, but then hesitated and said, "Cousin, the police searched yesterday. Can we find anything now?"

"Perhaps, after yesterday's police search, they must have thought they were safe now, and if they let their guard down, they might reveal their true colors."

"Cousin, you are right!"

Upon hearing this, the two women's enthusiasm was unprecedentedly high, and they began to search everywhere. However, as time went by, their enthusiasm faded a lot after finding nothing. When they saw Ye Dongsheng approaching the long wooden box again, they all went over.

"Cousin, didn't you see this last night?"

Ye Dongsheng removed all the nails from the box. "I've looked for everything else I could, but I still think there's something wrong with this box. After all, I only saw a corner of it last night..."

As he said that, he opened the lid. The two women were originally excited by Ye Dongsheng's words, but then the hope in their eyes was replaced by disappointment:

"It's really just a plaster sculpture!"

Inside the long wooden box lay a nearly two-meter-tall plaster sculpture, similar to a full-length statue of an ancient Greek man.

"Don't you think this plaster statue is a little strange?"

After hearing Ye Dongsheng's words, the two women also looked at the plaster statue carefully.

The head of the sculpture is normal, but the lower part is extremely ordinary, with arms wrapped around the chest and legs together. Not only does the entire sculpture lack any posture or curves, it also gives people the feeling that the lower body is a half-finished product that is not completed.

Ye Dongsheng asked again, "Uncle Ren said last night that the sculpture has been completed and sealed, and someone has ordered it. But would you buy such an ugly sculpture and put it up for display?"

Both women shook their heads.

Moonlight murmured, "This statue isn't pretty at all. It doesn't look like a Western plaster sculpture at all. Why does it look like a mummy?"

Ye Dongsheng snapped his fingers: "Yes, that's it, the mummy!"
