Hong Kong Film Intelligence King

Chapter 86 He went to great lengths to pick up girls
Liu Jianming, dressed in military uniform, walked into a guesthouse in Tsim Sha Tsui.

If he could, he wouldn't want to wear a military uniform, but without one, he would be too easily exposed.

Furthermore, there are too many triads in Tsim Sha Tsui. If you're just passing through, everything will be fine; but if you stay in one place for too long, someone will come up and question you.

While plainclothes officers are convenient, they are also too prone to causing trouble.

We absolutely cannot let anything go wrong tonight; we must be absolutely certain of success.

Liu Jianming checked the gun he was carrying. It wasn't a service weapon issued by the gun company, but one that Sister Mary had bought on the black market. No matter how he checked it, he couldn't find the original owner of it.

After Liu Jianming finished his inspection, he nodded in satisfaction, straightened his clothes, and went out onto the street like a military uniformed on night patrol in Tsim Sha Tsui.

In this residential area, there won't be any police patrols for half an hour.

Liu Jianming didn't know how Mary had managed to win over the police officers at the police station. He figured it must have been through a deal or bribery, something a nobody like him shouldn't be thinking about.

Tonight, it was just an order given to him by Mary, the wife of his boss Han Chen.

Nobody knew that Liu Jianming wasn't Han Chen's man, but Mary's.

Thinking of Mary, Liu Jianming couldn't help but smile slightly. He didn't know how many nights he had spent thinking about Mary and couldn't sleep.

Unfortunately, Mary only had eyes for Han Chen.

Liu Jianming was not discouraged. He was still young. If he was given a few years, he would definitely climb to a position that Han Chen could only dream of. At that time, Mary would definitely have him in her eyes.
Actually, Lau Kin-ming wanted to stay by Mary's side, but Han Chen wanted to select several young men with clean backgrounds to work as undercover officers at the police academy.

Mary also recommended Lau Kin-ming, and when she asked for his opinion, Lau Kin-ming, not wanting to disappoint Mary, stepped forward.

Liu Jianming's love for Mary and his hatred for Han Chen were definitely not out of jealousy.

In his opinion, why should Han Chen, this shorty, have his goddess?
What tormented him even more was the thought that his goddess would be ravaged by Han Chen every night... it drove him mad.

Lau Kin-ming would do anything for Mary.

It's wrong for the police to kill people; if Mary needs it, Liu Jianming can do it.

Of course, he was just an undercover cop.

As Liu Jianming approached his target, he saw the kind-looking old man, who resembled a gentle, neighborly grandfather.

If he hadn't known the truth, he really wouldn't have believed that the old man in front of him was actually Ni Kun, the patriarch of the Ni family, who was feared in Yau Tsim Mong!

When Ni Kun saw him, his expression changed drastically.

Liu Jianming stared at him expressionlessly and kicked him in the back of the knee.

Pfft!
Ni Kun knelt down.

Liu Jianming chuckled inwardly. The underworld boss and the gangsters he usually arrested had the same weak knees; they could bend over easily.

The cold muzzle of the gun was pressed down on Ni Kun's forehead.

Ni Kun actually laughed:

"What goes around comes around."

Liu Jianming remained unmoved; he had no interest in talking to a man who was destined to die.

boom!
The gun went off!
Ni Kun fell backward in an instant, dead beyond any doubt.

Actually, he didn't need to go through all that trouble. He could have just opened fire when he walked up to Ni Kun.

However, Liu Jianming did not like this approach.

Ni Kun doesn't deserve to stand still and take his shot!

Execution by firing squad was his only fate.

Liu Jianming calmly put away his gun, even taking the time to tidy his clothes, before striding out as if he were on patrol as usual.

According to the plan, Ni Kun's bodyguards would return in fifteen minutes, and at the same time, news of Ni Kun's death would spread throughout the martial arts world.

This might cause a sensation in the martial arts world.

None of this concerned him; he was just a new recruit in uniform with a slight reputation in the police station.

Liu Jianming walked steadily into the darkness. He continued walking along the beach, and when he was sure no one was around, he wiped the butt of his gun clean with a handkerchief and then threw it into the sea.

Whether or not the gun is found is no longer my concern.

He suddenly realized how beautiful the night was; the waves seemed to be singing, and even the salty sea breeze had a unique sweetness.

Liu Jianming gently closed his eyes and revealed a satisfied smile.

He whistled leisurely and went home to sleep!

That's right, it's just sleeping.

At the same time, Yue Huizhen asked the king:
"Did you hear anything?"

Wang Dao countered with a question:
"what sound?"

"You farted?"

Le Huizhen rolled her eyes hard:

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

"I mean, did you hear a sound like firecrackers going off?"

Wang Dao was amazed by Le Huizhen's keen hearing; he certainly knew what had happened at that time:

"firecracker?"

"Perhaps it's the sound of gunfire."

Lok Wai-chun said regretfully:

"Oh dear, I missed something so important."

Wang Dao was utterly speechless at her occupational hazard:

"Pretty girl, are you stupid?"

"We'll be seeing Inspector Chan soon. If there really is a murder case, why don't you just ask Inspector Chan directly?"

"Isn't it much faster than other people's reports?"

Le Huizhen suddenly realized:
"Yes, I can just ask Inspector Chen."

"Concern truly leads to confusion!"

Even Wang Dao wouldn't deign to mention her.

Soon, Chen Guozhong appeared in front of the two.

Le Huizhen actually asked, and Chen Guozhong looked at her in surprise:
How did you know there had been a shooting recently?

Le Huizhen shrugged:

“I heard it. Ado said it might be a shooting.”

Was it actually a shooting?

Chen Guozhong complained about Wang Dao:
"You really go all out to pick up girls!"

"I suddenly realized that you're using a feint to cover up your true intentions while secretly pursuing your own agenda."

Le Huizhen's face turned red instantly.

"Inspector Chen, don't talk nonsense."

Wang Dao shrugged:

"You are judging a gentleman by your own petty standards."

"I'm here purely to help a friend."

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have come."

Chen Guozhong frowned and said:

Why are you here?

Wang Dao said calmly:
"I'm well-informed."

He changed the subject...
"Not only did I come, but Afghan people also came."

With a slight wave, Li Fu appeared before the two.

Chen Guozhong sized up Li Fu and nodded slightly. He had heard Wang Dao talk about Li Fu before. Li Fu was a failed assassin who only killed those who deserved to be killed, just like Chen Guozhong in some ways.

The Way of the King:

Did you bring what I asked you to bring?

Chen Guozhong complained:

"These things are really hard to find. It was quite a struggle to find the smallest size."

"If it weren't for the cold night, it would have been really hard to hide it."

Lok Wai-chun asked curiously:

"what?"

Chen Guozhong waved the bag in his hand, opened it, and inside was a small bulletproof vest.

Le Huizhen exclaimed in astonishment:

Why are you bringing this?

Chen Guozhong looked at Wang Dao in surprise:

"Didn't you explain the situation to reporter Yue?"

Wang Dao sarcastically remarked:
"Explain what?"

"In what capacity should I explain?"

"Should we tell her that we're teaming up to take down Johnny Wang?"

Le Huizhen was startled:
Johnny Wang?

"An arms dealer wanted by the police?"

She was incredibly excited.

"Do we have a secret mission?"

Lok Wai-chun was never a gentle girl. Although she looked gentle, she was wild at heart.

It's that kind of wild, untamed madness.

Wang Dao nodded:
"Correct!"

"Today's ghost-hunting incident is just an excuse."

Le Huizhen frowned and said:

"But TVB Jade has already contacted Ming Sum Hospital to conduct an interview."

Are we going to break our promise?

"Then I need to call them and explain."

Wang Dao waved his hand:
"We can't make phone calls; our destination is Mingxin Hospital."

Le Huizhen was dumbfounded:
"Aren't we supposed to be on a special mission?"

"Why do we still need to go there?"

Wang Dao spread his hands:
"Johnny's headquarters is right here at Mingxin Hospital."

Le Huizhen was greatly surprised:
"what?"

"How can this be?"

Wang Dao said calmly:
"Wouldn't you be even more surprised if you knew their base was located in a morgue?"

Le Huizhen couldn't help but cover her mouth, her eyes wide with shock.

Wang Dao picked up the bulletproof vest and gave the order:
"Raise both hands."

Le Huizhen exclaimed in surprise:
"what are you up to?"

Wang Dao rolled his eyes:
"What else can be done?"

"Of course, it's to put a bulletproof vest on you?"

Le Huizhen glanced at Chen Guozhong and Li Fu, who were watching the show, and suddenly became shy: "I'll do it myself."

Wang Dao asked in astonishment:

"Do you know how to wear it?"

Le Huizhen was speechless; she really didn't know how to wear this.

Chen Guozhong said at the opportune moment:

"Bulletproof vests need to be put on by professionals. The most important thing about the shield is that it can protect against bullets. If it is not worn properly, it is as if you are not wearing one at all."

Le Huizhen remained obediently still, letting Wang Dao do as he pleased.

After finally getting the bulletproof vest on, I put on a women's trench coat over it, which provided perfect cover-up.

Chen Guozhong pulled Wang Dao aside and began to criticize him relentlessly:
"Are you helping me get rid of Johnny Wang?"

"Are you trying to pick up girls?"

The king's way was silent:
"You really don't appreciate kindness."

"You're a soldier, I'm a thief, how can I help you?"

“If I directly tell Liang Kun that I’m here to help you, wouldn’t that just make him suspicious of me?”

"But if I say I'm helping Lok Wai-chun with her news coverage, will Leung Kwan suspect me?"

Chen Guozhong was dumbfounded:
"Is that even a valid reason?"

Little did he know that Liang Kun was a renowned fire-fighting expert, and he was never short of women around him.

This guy is also a well-known womanizer—it's not that if you're rich and famous, girls will flock to you unless you're super famous and rich.

Liang Kun is quite skilled at pursuing girls, and of course he doesn't forbid his underlings from doing the same.

Wang Dao coldly snorted:
"I always prefer to achieve win-win results in my work."

"Look, this isn't just about 'picking up girls,' it also helps build a good relationship with you. It's a win-win situation."

"You actually doubt my original intentions?"

Chen Guozhong was speechless.

How should I put this?

Although the kingly way is right.

But he always felt that the ultimate goal was to pick up girls.

This is just a feeling; he has no evidence!
Chen Guozhong put aside this thought and said to Le Huizhen:
"Tonight's operation is very dangerous; we're dealing with Johnny Wang."

“He has been running Mingxin Hospital for who knows how long, and there are surveillance cameras he has set up everywhere.”

Le Huizhen was taken aback and said:
"So the claim that someone felt monitored when entering the hospital wasn't unfounded?"

Chen Guozhong nodded slightly:
"Yes."

"A person with keen senses can feel that they are being investigated."

"That's not surprising."

Le Huizhen seemed to be deep in thought:
"So that's it."

Chen Guozhong continued:
"Don't worry, we've already spoken to the hospital. We'll go directly to the hospital director and then to the morgue."

Le Huizhen was taken aback:
"The morgue is the first stop?"

Chen Guozhong shrugged:

"If we're talking about paranormal events in hospitals, it's either the elevators or the morgue."

Aren't you curious?

Le Huizhen chuckled:
"I am indeed quite curious."

Wang Dao continued:
“Inspector Chen is here as your bodyguard, and Ah Fu and I are your staff.”

"Therefore, the two of us will not speak unless you need to."

"After we finish negotiating with the hospital, we will go straight to the morgue. You need to stay with Inspector Chan and don't go anywhere else."

Le Huizhen smiled and said:
"You seem to care about me quite a bit."

Chen Guozhong said solemnly:

"Johnny Wang is ruthless and has several lives on his hands. This mission is extremely dangerous."

"Have you considered withdrawing from this?"

Le Huizhen immediately understood the seriousness of the matter and composed herself, saying:

"Don't worry, Officer Chen, I'll definitely follow orders. I'm terrified!"

Chen Guozhong sighed inwardly. He would be a fool to believe that!

After making their plans, the group headed straight to Mingxin Hospital and successfully met with the hospital staff.

Johnny Wang immediately learned that Lok Wai-Ching and others were going to Ming Hsin Hospital to do a "ghost-hunting" program.

"Is TVB Jade going to do a ghost story here?"

Johnny Wang instinctively felt that things were not simple.

Why did she choose Mingxin Hospital instead of other hospitals?

The subordinate thought for a moment and said:

"Perhaps Mingxin Hospital has been generating a lot of buzz lately?"

Johnny Wang listened to his subordinates' analysis with a dark expression.

Is Mingxin Hospital very popular?

That's way too high!
Four top-tier martial arts masters from Dongxing, all at the level of Double Flower Red Stick, are lying in this hospital. Heroes from all over the martial arts world have come to watch the spectacle, and it's practically become the hospital's calling card.

The subordinate then said:

"The reporter said that some patients had reported feeling monitored at Mingxin Hospital, so they wanted to do a program about it."

Johnny Wang nodded slightly.

That makes sense.

There are always people in this world with exceptionally keen senses. For example, Johnny Wang, once he enters an unfamiliar environment, will instinctively look for positions where he can be sniped. It's normal for someone to discover that they are being monitored.

He thought for a while and asked:
"What was the procedure for that reporter?"

His subordinate complained:
"I thought she really wanted to find ghosts, but it was all staged."

"She said it mainly involves three places—the corridor, the elevator, and the morgue."

"Among them, the morgue is of paramount importance."

"Oh, right, that female reporter also asked the hospital to cooperate with the performance, like having the lights flash or something..."

Johnny laughed:
"This reporter is a thoughtful person."

His subordinate pursed his lips, clearly disappointed.

Johnny Wang said speechlessly:

"What the hell are you disappointed about?"

"This is a normal reporter; what he does is what TV stations often do."

"Think about it carefully. Aren't those three places she mentioned the most likely places to encounter ghosts in horror movies?"

His subordinate was taken aback, then suddenly realized:

"Oh, it really is like that."

Johnny Wang secretly breathed a sigh of relief:
"Let's just quietly watch them do their show."

The subordinate pouted again:

"I found out that the TV programs were quite interesting, but it turned out to be a lie."

"This is so boring!"

Johnny rolled his eyes:

"Isn't that obvious?"

"Who can take dozens of stab wounds and be covered in blood, yet still deliver a fatal blow to their opponent?"

His subordinates were disgruntled.

There's nothing I can do; he just loves watching gory movies.

Johnny asked:
"Is it over there already?"

The subordinates suddenly became excited:
"Yes, I just received a call from the detective. Huang Zhicheng and Mary's plan has succeeded. Mary has deployed an assassin, and you have absolutely no idea what the assassin is dressed like."

Johnny frowned and said:

"Assassin's attire?"

The subordinate chuckled:

"Yes, that assassin was wearing a military uniform!"

"The detective said it doesn't look like an act; it's very likely a real military uniform!"

Johnny Wang was stunned and said incredulously:
"Han Chen actually sent an undercover agent to the police station?"

"He really is a talent."

He immediately said excitedly,
"Tell the detective to hurry up and send the videotape over."

“With Ni Kun assassinated, the Ni family will inevitably be thrown into chaos. Han Chen is one of the five leaders and is very likely to take over. Even if he doesn’t take over, I can force him to take over.”

"Now that we have leverage over him, it's like we've got control over the Ni family."

"Even if we can only control a large part of the area, we can come and go as we please in Yau Tsim Mong."

The subordinate reminded him:
"But now people from TVB Jade are coming here to do programs."

Johnny Wang disagreed:
"Isn't that just right?"

"After the people from Jade Channel left, the detective came over under the name of Jade Channel."

"By the way, did the people from TVB Jade say how long they'll be filming here?"

The subordinate replied:
"They said they would film for two hours."

Johnny Wang frowned deeply:
"It's going to take this long to film?"

The subordinate shrugged:

"I heard that they're going to make a three-part documentary, and they still need to go back and edit it, so they'll naturally need to shoot more footage."

Johnny laughed:
"It seems they really came to film."

The subordinate asked blankly:
"Could there be fakes among them?"

Johnny Wang sighed inwardly. His men were loyal, efficient, and fearless, but they just didn't know how to use their brains.

They're arms dealers; you have to suspect everyone you can.

What's more, the person accompanying that female reporter today is Chen Guozhong, who has recently been making headlines.

The doctors' gang was much more ruthless than them, but they were still wiped out by Chen Guozhong.
Oh right, it seems that it was Lok Wai-Chun who reported on this.

Johnny Wang carefully watched the surveillance footage and noticed that Lok Wai-chun and the others were heading towards the morgue. He didn't dare to be careless and kept a close eye on Chen Kuo-chung. He noticed that Chen Kuo-chung was lagging behind and chatting with the hospital staff, only occasionally glancing at Lok Wai-chun and the others.

He didn't know any of the other people at Jade TV.

Johnny Wang secretly breathed a long sigh of relief; the air was quite fresh today.

Is the air fresh?

Johnny Wang had a bad feeling and turned around.

boom!
A bullet struck him between the eyebrows, and his consciousness instantly went dark; he knew nothing more.
