Hong Kong Film: Night Cop

Chapter 521 Unexpected Turn of Events! Superintendent Liu is to be Transferred
Police senior officials also have great faith in Li Fei's abilities.

They knew he had the ability to resolve this terrorist crisis.

Therefore, the police wanted to take the opportunity to investigate Superintendent Liu and then insert someone into the team. If Li Fei really solved the terrorists, wouldn't the person in charge, as Li Fei's direct superior, be able to get the credit?

Of course, it's also possible that Li Fei might make a mistake and ruin the whole thing.

But that's not important at all.

Even if Li Fei messed things up, failed to catch the terrorists, and even let the terrorists bomb the school.

But it won't implicate the person who picks the peaches.

After all, Li Fei was in charge of this case.

We can just make him take the blame then.

Clearly, the person behind this has already planned everything.

Once you've achieved something, you can reap the rewards and say whatever you want.

If things go wrong, Li Fei will take the blame, and no one else will be implicated. After all, the person who's reaping the rewards is newly transferred. He can easily absolve himself of all responsibility by simply saying that he's new.

Ha ha!

That's a really nice idea.

Li Fei gave a cold laugh and then went to Superintendent Liu's office.

When the door was pushed open, Superintendent Liu was sitting there with a somber expression, holding a trophy in his hand. This trophy was the reward the police force had given him when he was young and had performed meritorious service.

"Sir, I miss my youth!"

Li Fei closed the door and chuckled, making a sarcastic remark.

"Haha, getting old," Superintendent Liu said, then put the trophy back and said, "Didn't you go to be my security guard? You need something?"

Li Fei pulled up a chair and sat down opposite Superintendent Liu, saying, "Sir, why didn't you tell me about being transferred?"

"You know," Superintendent Liu said calmly.

“What secrets could the police station possibly have? I just heard it from Mary,” Li Fei said.

"Yes! The police station is only so big, there are no secrets to speak of. I just never thought that I would be the subject of gossip one day." Superintendent Liu said with a self-deprecating laugh.

"Sir, I don't quite understand why you're being transferred here?" Li Fei asked.

A hint of sadness flashed in Superintendent Liu's eyes, but it quickly disappeared. He said happily, "Ah Fei, job transfers are very normal. There's nothing wrong with that. Besides, I've been transferred to the Regional Police Station this time. Although it's a lateral transfer, it's still a promotion."

Between Yau Ma Tei and the Regional Police Station, the Regional Police Station is definitely better.

Superintendent Liu was right about that.

It would have been better if the transfer had been delayed.

After all, once the terrorist case is over, almost everyone involved will get a promotion and a raise.

If Superintendent Liu is transferred after this incident, it won't be a lateral transfer, but a promotion.

Seeing that the matter was a fait accompli, Li Fei could not stop Superintendent Liu from being transferred, no matter how much he regretted it.

"Sir, I wonder who will be sitting in your seat?"

Li Fei wanted to see who had the audacity to be transferred here to steal credit.

As he spoke, a fierce glint flashed in Li Fei's eyes, thinking that he would give that person a surprise later.

“I’m not entirely sure, but I heard that the people transferred here are from the UK,” Superintendent Liu said.

“British mainland! How is that possible?” Li Fei exclaimed in surprise.

He wouldn't be surprised if a local from Hong Kong were transferred here.

But if people were brought in from the UK itself, that would be truly astonishing.

This is putting the cart before the horse!
1997 is almost here. Those foreigners in Hong Kong are all eager to make some money and return to their homeland to retire.

How could there possibly be any foreigners from the original organization being brought to Hong Kong to fill the gaps?

Unless, this person has offended too many people in Britain and has been transferred to Hong Kong to suffer the consequences.

"I was just as shocked as you were when I heard the news," Superintendent Liu said with a wry smile. He hadn't expected anyone in the UK to dare to take his position.

"I wonder if that foreigner who was transferred here was just unlucky or offended someone."

After hearing Superintendent Liu's teasing of the foreigner, Li Fei said, "I'm afraid he's offended someone. Most people probably understand the current situation in Hong Kong. Those foreigners in Hong Kong are racking their brains to escape back to the mainland to avoid being impacted when Hong Kong returns to China."

“Who knows? I’m just completely baffled,” Superintendent Liu said.

"Sir, do you have any specific information about that person?" Li Fei's heart stirred. If he did, he might be able to investigate and see what kind of trouble that person had committed in England to be transferred to Hong Kong.

Superintendent Liu thought back to what he had been told earlier, and it seemed that the foreigner's background hadn't been mentioned...

and many more.

Superintendent Liu seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes lit up as he said, "It seems that the person transferred here is not a foreigner, but a foreign woman."

"A foreign girl! A woman."

Li Fei was startled.

"Yes, they seem to have mentioned a female police superintendent," Superintendent Liu confirmed.

"No way! They're bringing in a woman? How old is she? If she's a superintendent, she's at least forty. What kind of people could a forty-year-old woman have offended in England? Could it be that she had an affair, and then her aristocratic husband sent her to this remote corner of Hong Kong?"

Li Fei speculated with the utmost malice.

If that's the case, that'll be interesting. We can gossip about it and see which new foreign girl can still stay in the police station.

She might have to stay home every day and be too afraid to come to the police station.

"Ah Fei, you can't spread things without evidence," Superintendent Liu warned Li Fei.

"understood."

Li Fei knew that Superintendent Liu was doing this for his own good. After all, if the ghost girl found out that he had messed with her, she would definitely not let him off the hook.

"Alright, if there's nothing else, you can get back to work!" Superintendent Liu seemed a little annoyed with Li Fei and waved his hand.

"Okay, sir."

Seeing Li Fei leave the office, Superintendent Liu leaned back in his chair with a dejected expression. To be honest, he didn't want to go to work at headquarters.

He rose through the ranks to become a police superintendent, and working on the front lines has always been what he wanted to do.

If he goes to headquarters, he probably won't be able to go to the front lines anymore. He'll just be stuck in the police station reading documents and drinking coffee. That's not the kind of life he wants.

Moreover, he didn't want to leave his team of subordinates.

However, he couldn't refuse the orders from above. He just hoped that if he went to work in the headquarters, he wouldn't be given an empty position.

After leaving Superintendent Liu's office, Li Fei planned to go see Inspector Zhuang again to see if Superintendent Liu could be transferred later.

But then I thought, even Inspector Zhuang probably couldn't do something like this. If he really could, he would have done it long ago.

Hey!
Li Fei sighed softly, then turned and left the police station to work as a security guard at the school.

Upon arriving at the surveillance point overseeing the school, and after changing into security guard uniforms, Li Fei asked Zhu Huabiao and the others who were staying there, "Did anyone enter or leave the school last night?"

"Apart from a few teachers, no one else comes in or leaves the school," Zhu Huabiao replied.

After listening to the explanation, Li Fei gave a few instructions and then left the stronghold.
