Hong Kong variety show: Hung Hing, are you contributing to society?

[Ding! You have rescued the innocent girl Su Xiaoxiao, earning a reward of 10000 contribution points and the reward 'Girl's Favor'.]

Ok?

With a thought, a semi-transparent system panel unfolded in Lin Yaodong's mind.

Rescue? He glanced at Su Xiaoxiao, who looked anxious outside the car. Was this considered rescue?

But what about this "favor from a young girl"?

It sounds like the passive skill that increases charm that I acquired before.

Will I get a 10,000 contribution points for saving Su Xiaoxiao?

This was somewhat unexpected by Lin Yaodong.

He remembered that the system was only a few hundred contribution points away from unlocking the second type of exchange item.

Lin Yaodong's thoughts shifted, and his gaze swept over the total number of contribution points, which had already accumulated to a considerable number: 10009200 points.

A system notification immediately sounded:

[Ding! Your contribution points have reached 10009200, unlocking the 'Reward Card' item.]

Sure enough, the contribution points exceeded ten million, unlocking new redemption options.

On the panel, below the previously isolated "Hong Kong Dollar" item, a second item has appeared:

1. Hong Kong Dollar. (Exchange rate: 1 Contribution Point : 1 Hong Kong Dollar)

Second: Prize redemption card. (You can choose the prize value based on the prize amount of any prize redemption card available on the market.)

Below is a smaller note: After the prize card is retrieved, it can appear in any form of prize-winning 'card' or 'ticket' available on the market (e.g., a winning horse racing ticket).

Lin Yaodong was somewhat disappointed.

Prize redemption card?

Isn't this still just exchanging money?

It's just in a different form.

He also hopes to unlock something more surreal and useful, such as skills or cutting-edge technology.

He tentatively used his mind to select a lottery ticket with a winning amount of HK$20.

[Do you wish to redeem a 'horse racing ticket' with a winning amount of 20? (Note: This is a bearer ticket. Once the host retrieves it, the ticket will automatically set the horse racing result to the day before.)]

Note: This prize redemption ticket is anonymous. After the host retrieves it, the ticket will automatically set the race result to the previous day.

Lin Yaodong's gaze lingered on this line of annotation for two more seconds.

The day before?

At first glance, this annotation seems a bit redundant. Normally, winning tickets are based on results that have already occurred; what if something that didn't happen happened?

Suddenly, a flash of lightning struck his mind!

and many more!

Choose the prize amount from the available prize redemption cards... Legal... Anonymous...

If... I use the lottery tickets to...

A bold idea emerged.

This thought made Lin Yaodong's heart beat slightly faster.

He had received horse racing tickets as a reward from the system before, but at that time he was of low status and only thought about making money for himself, without ever giving it much thought.

Now he is a leader of the Hung Hing Society, the top henchman under Boss B, and has begun to get involved in higher-level struggles.

Fighting and killing in the martial world is ultimately a low-level approach; true stability requires "friends," especially friends from the righteous path.

The newly appointed inspector of the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau (OCTB) is said to be impervious to reason and is worried about finding a way to break through.

If... if I could befriend him in such a way—a windfall, completely legal, and impossible to trace...

This isn't a lottery ticket.

This is clearly a master key that opens countless doors! It's an excellent tool for building a network of connections!

Now that my status has improved, it's time to expand my network of contacts.

This lottery ticket is practically a magic tool for "making friends"!

He's still a gangster at heart, and he's most afraid of the police investigating him seriously.

In particular, I heard that the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau (OCTB) has a special unit that cracks down on triads, called the Anti-Triad Unit.

Although Lin Yaodong's own businesses can be considered relatively legal, if the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau (OCTB) were to investigate seriously, none of them could withstand scrutiny.

Which cadre can withstand such a test?

But if you could use this lottery ticket to become "good friends" with the leaders of the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau...

Just as Lin Yaodong was immersed in this amazing discovery, the stalemate outside the car continued.

Seeing that Lin Yaodong remained silent, Gao Jin assumed that he had tacitly agreed to be driven away, so he got out of the passenger seat again and reached out to pull Su Xiaoxiao away without expression.

"I won't get off! I won't get off! Let me go!"

Su Xiaoxiao screamed, gripping the car door frame tightly. Her fingers turned white from the force, and tears welled up in her eyes, mingling with the dust she had picked up from the fall, leaving a disheveled mark on her face.

Lin Yaodong was pulled back to reality by her shouts.

He glanced at Su Xiaoxiao, who was disheveled but still clung to her last hope, and then thought of the "favor of the young girl" he had just received and the "prize card" with unlimited potential.

Perhaps keeping her around isn't all trouble.

"Never mind," Lin Yaodong said calmly.

Gao Jin stopped abruptly and looked at Lin Yaodong with a puzzled expression.

What's wrong with Dong Ge today? He usually hates this kind of messy and troublesome stuff.

He thought to himself: You...you don't really want to take it, do you? There have been so many already, can your body handle it?

Of course, he only thought these words to himself, his face remaining expressionless. He replied with a "Yes," then let go of her hand and sat back in the passenger seat.

Still shaken, Su Xiaoxiao gasped for breath, her eyes blurry with tears as she looked at Lin Yaodong, unable to believe that he had let her go so easily.

Lin Yaodong looked at her and said, "You can come with me."

Overwhelmed by joy, Su Xiaoxiao nearly jumped up, her voice brimming with the relief of surviving a close call: "Really!?"

"But you still have to do some work," Lin Yaodong said in a calm tone. "I'm not running a charity. You can start by working at the 'Heaven on Earth' bar in Causeway Bay."

"Heaven on Earth?" Su Xiaoxiao's smile froze for a moment.

That place holds some unpleasant memories for her—being tied up and humiliated.

But then I thought, compared to being sold to make movies or being homeless and harassed by Fei-hung's former underlings, those unpleasant things were simply not worth mentioning.

Being able to stay, have a place to stay, and have a job is already an incredible stroke of luck for her, who has been abandoned by the Chang Le Gang.

"Okay! I'll go! I'll do my best!" Su Xiaoxiao nodded hurriedly, afraid that Lin Yaodong would change his mind.

"Close the car door." Lin Yaodong moved further inside.

Su Xiaoxiao felt as if she had been granted a pardon. She quickly wiped away her tears and carefully sat in the spacious back seat of the Bentley, leaning against the door as far away from Lin Yaodong as possible.

The car was filled with the fresh scent of high-quality leather and the faint smell of tobacco from Lin Yaodong, a world apart from the environment she had just been in.

I didn't pay attention when I stole this car; I just wanted to sell it for a good price.

Looking at it now, the interior is truly luxurious.

The car started smoothly and merged into the traffic.

Su Xiaoxiao secretly glanced at Lin Yaodong, who was resting with his eyes closed beside her. His profile was cold and hard, and she couldn't guess what he was thinking.

She glanced again at Gao Jin, who sat like a stone sculpture in the front seat, and at the driver who was focused on driving.

What will the future hold? She doesn't know.

But at least for now, she is safe.

She clutched her handbag and the hem of her coat tightly.

Lin Yaodong, seemingly resting with his eyes closed, was actually immersing himself in the system once again, carefully studying the newly unlocked, infinitely potential "prize card".

A completely new picture of wealth, power, and the future is slowly unfolding in his mind.

Let's start with the top officer of the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau (OCTB)... or perhaps start with lower-ranking officers like Chief Superintendent or Senior Inspector...

To avoid personally getting involved and leaving himself vulnerable, Lin Yaodong always entrusted Xiao Fu with cultivating relationships with the police station.

However, Xiao Fu won't be back from New Zealand and Australia until tomorrow.

There are still too few people I can truly trust...

Lin Yaodong thought to himself, glancing at Su Xiaoxiao beside him.
