Hong Kong Movie: At the beginning, Big Boss B asked me to draw the death lottery

Chapter 22 I can’t help myself
He Yaozong gripped the phone tightly. "I wonder what Lawyer Chen needs me to do?"

“I will retrieve the files of these police officers as soon as possible. They have solved many major cases in the police force before.

Mr. He, what you need to do is to find the victims of these cases, or their families.

Convince them to find a time to accept a joint interview with the TV station.

Only by letting them create a lively atmosphere can the general public empathize with the people and the momentum of public opinion will grow stronger.

Once public opinion reaches a certain level, the Department of Justice will be forced to consider re-determining this case."

"Alright, Lawyer Chen, you don't need to explain so much to me. If there's anything you need me to do, just call me and tell me."

"Okay, I can immediately have someone prepare the relevant materials for this case.

As for funding..."

"Give me one more day, and I'll be there by the afternoon of the day after tomorrow at the latest!"

The two chatted about the progress of Datou's confession case and then hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, He Yaozong glanced at the clock on the wall. The two of them had talked for exactly five minutes, no more, no less.

If nothing unexpected happens, the cell should have finished roll call by now and entered the stage of preparing for bed at night.

"Big Head, after tonight, what you choose tomorrow will not be up to you."

……

Stanley Prison.

Datou pushed the mosquito needle that was fetching water for Sanghao in the bathroom, and then took the foot basin filled with hot water from him.

"Go and do your own thing. I'll fetch water for Brother Hao today."

"Thank you, Big Head Brother."

After sending away the mosquito needle, Datou couldn't help but sigh, then carried the foot basin and walked into the warehouse.

At this time, Sang Hao was sitting on the first bed at the entrance of the warehouse, with a cigarette in his mouth, chatting with the prison guard patrolling the door.

He had already rolled up his trouser legs, and by the time the prison guard said goodbye to him and went to inspect other cells, he had just finished smoking a Lucky Strike cigarette.

When I looked up, I found that Big Head had come to me with a basin of water.

"Lost! Where's the mosquito needle?"

"Brother Hao, let me wash you today."

After saying this, Datou naturally put down the foot basin and rolled up Sanghao's trouser legs.

Sang Hao couldn't help but sneer.

"Let me make it clear first, if you like washing other people's feet, that's your business.

But if you ask me for something later, I may not be able to agree to it!"

Datou's face looked a little ugly, but he still lifted up Sanghao's legs and dipped them into the foot basin.

"Brother Hao, no matter what you say, you have to take care of me this time.

I really can’t go to Lantau Island for the labor work tomorrow!
Please be merciful and let me do whatever you want from now on!"

Sang Hao couldn't help but grin.

"Damn it, they can go, why can't you go?"

“Killer Xiong told me this afternoon that Shuihuo from Tung Sing will also be going to Lantau Island to collect sand tomorrow.

I once crippled his cousin, and tomorrow when I go to work on Lantau Island, he won't let me go!"

The prisoners in the cell are never law-abiding.

Especially those who come from gangs, no matter what grudges they have outside, they will continue to deal with them inside.

Going out for labor work is the best opportunity for these grudges to settle their grievances.

It is difficult to talk about human rights in prison, as there are legal death indicators every year.

It is unknown how many prisoners die every year due to "accidents" while working on offshore islands.

Datou didn't want to die in prison in a confused state. Since he heard the news from Killer Xiong, he began to think about whether to accept He Yaozong's suggestion and bite Big Brother B.

After all, Big Boss B is unkind, so you can’t blame yourself for being unjust!
Being hunted down by Big Boss B in the future is better than dying on Lantau Island tomorrow. Sang Hao crossed his arms over his chest, his smile growing wider.

"The list of laborers for Lantau Island was set by Killer Xiong. Damn it, I'm going to start work tomorrow. Do you think I'm qualified to let you rest in the cell?"

When Datou heard this, he was stunned.

But Sanghao changed the subject.

"But seeing as you've been in jail for the past two years, you seem pretty smart.

I've decided to support you this time. If anyone gives you trouble tomorrow on the battlefield, I'll take care of it!"

"But Brother Hao, more than half of the people in Warehouse B are Dongxingzi!"

"What are you afraid of? Big Head, do you know why our number group, Zhongzi, has become increasingly destitute in recent years?"

"No...don't know!"

"That's because more than half of our brothers have been jailed by the police!

Outside, I don’t dare to say that I’m a big shot, but in the cell, no one can touch me.”

After saying that, Sang Hao raised his left foot and stepped on the edge of the foot basin.

She waved her hands in disdain: "Alright, alright, you don't look like you're fit to wash other people's feet.

Go get Mosquito Needle, he's a very good foot massager!"

Although Sanghao said that, Datou still felt uneasy.

That night he tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep.

This caused the person in the lower bunk to complain in a low voice in the middle of the night.

"Big Head, I have to go to the bathroom!

Don't keep me awake at night. I have to work as a coolie on Lantau Island tomorrow!"

……

The next day, Lantau Island Labour Pier.

Looking at the artificial sand field on the southeast side of the island, the machines roared and raised dust all over the sky.

Since the restoration of Hong Kong Island, real estate has always been a fertile land full of gold mountains during the decades of economic boom.

Sand is used in building materials, and its price has also risen sharply in recent years.

During the peak of Hong Kong's property market, ocean-going cargo ships were even used to transport river sand from Australia!
The lucrative real estate market has enabled many wealthy people to transform into tycoons, but the amount of money that leaks out of their hands is still very limited.

Using prisoners in the prison to work as laborers in the mines is the most economical and cost-effective method.

As long as the rich donate a small amount of money to the Correctional Services Department, the Department will immediately be able to recruit batches of strong men who are vigorous and have nowhere to vent their energy and put them at their disposal.

When they were getting off the boat and lining up, Datou stood at the edge of the team.

When Killer Xiong called out his name, he suddenly felt a cold gaze sweeping over him.

Turning his head, he saw Dongxing's Shuihuo standing in the team next to him. There was a poisonous snake lurking in his eyes, looking at him with resentment.

Big Head frowned and clenched his fists unconsciously.

He has thought it through clearly. If he can't escape this incident today, he will drag the water and fire down with him even if he dies!
"9026, 9031, you two will form a team and be responsible for transporting the gravel in Area 2!"

As soon as Killer Xiong finished speaking, Shuihuo from the team next to him immediately raised his right hand.

"Sir, I'm applying to perform labor work in Area 2!"

"AB9763, are you sure you want to go to the edge of the cliff, endure the scorching sun, and carry rubble?"

The prison supervisor of the neighboring team was a little surprised. Operation Area 2 was located next to a cliff on the southeast side of Lantau Island.

The labor work is not easy, and you have to endure the sea breeze and the scorching sun all day long, and it is difficult to find even a place to shelter from the sun.

He didn't understand why Shuihuo, this old hand, would volunteer to go there.

However, Shuihuo's answer was powerful and resounding.

"Sir, there's been too much oil and water in the cell these past few days, and my stomach is bloated and I can't digest it. I want to move around more to relieve the gas!"
