The Hunter's Path: Starting as a constable, ascend to the Old Ones.

Chapter 85 Charging In (Part 1)

"What? Everything's normal inside? We received false information?"

When the commissioner called back and berated him mercilessly, Chan Ka-kui was completely bewildered. "Commander, how could this be false intelligence? This message came from our undercover agent at the jewelry exhibition; it can't be fake."

"The Political Department has already called to confirm that there was nothing unusual about the jewelry exhibition. Are you saying the Political Department is lying to me?"

The director snorted coldly. He had just been ridiculed by Peter Li from the Political Department and was holding back his anger.

Lu Ming snatched the phone from Chen Jiaju's hand and said in a deep voice, "Director, the jewelry exhibition has definitely run into trouble. The people from the Political Department may have been taken into custody."

He couldn't believe that Longwei and his ilk would be so bored as to risk their lives to play such an international joke on him.

Moreover, the unusual behavior of the security personnel further corroborated the authenticity of this intelligence.

"Ah Ming, are you really sure?"

The director looked serious. If Chen Jiaju had said this to him, he could have disregarded it, given Chen Jiaju's numerous blunders. But since it came from Lu Ming, who was always steady and reliable, he had to think about it carefully.

"100%".

Lu Ming uttered three words softly.

I believe you.

The director took a deep breath. "I will report to headquarters immediately. You can see if you can gather more useful intelligence on site so that I can be more confident in persuading headquarters to dispatch officers."

If it really was a group of international terrorists with a large number of heavy weapons who kidnapped celebrities and wealthy people at the jewelry exhibition, their small Central Police Station would not be able to carry out a rescue operation.

They could only seek help from the General Administration of Customs while simultaneously shifting the blame to others.

"Yes, sir!"

Lu Ming hung up the phone and said to Chen Jiaju and Li Jie, "Let's go and test whether these security personnel have been replaced by the bandits."

He paused for a moment, then said, "Be careful later."

He was actually saying this to himself.

Chen Jiaju and Li Jie are destined to be protagonists, born with good fortune, so they're unlikely to encounter any trouble.

Unlike the two men who could be riddled with bullets from submachine guns and remain unharmed, Lu Ming was less likely to be taken down by a single shot from a bandit.

Skill: Eagle Eye!

Skill: Stealth!

When Lu Ming got out of the car, a slight fluctuation of spirituality rippled through his body. In an instant, he activated two skills, his vision soared into the sky, overlooking the earth. His figure swayed, as if fading away, greatly reducing his presence.

Li Jie paused, staring at Lu Ming's back. He felt a sense of disorientation, as if Lu Ming would disappear from his sight if he looked away.

He didn't understand why he had this strange feeling.

"Report: Two unidentified individuals are approaching the hotel. What should we do?"

Seeing Chen Jiaju and Li Jie approaching, Da Yan immediately told the rabbit upstairs via walkie-talkie.

-

"You handle it as you see fit; if they're in your way, just kill them."

The rabbit replied casually.

"I see."

"Please wait here, this is a private exhibition and is not open to the public at the moment."

As soon as Lu Ming and his group entered the Grand Hotel, they were immediately stopped. Chen Jiaju took out his police ID and said, "I am a police officer from the Central Police Station, badge number 7086."

He stared at the police ID in front of him, his gaze slightly narrowed, but he remained calm and said, "Sir, is there anything I can help you with?"

Chan Ka-kui got straight to the point, "The streets of Hong Kong Island have been unsettled lately, so we are conducting routine security checks."

Li Jie quietly observed the other people in the hall. Since they saw them arrive, these security personnel had unknowingly formed a formation that was ready to fire at any moment. At the same time, these people reached into the counter and other places, as if they were grasping something.

Didi!

Lu Ming entered the hotel with Chen Jiaju and Li Jie, but as he approached, his keen intuition sounded like an alarm, sending chills down his spine.

He looked at the security personnel in the hall, a chill running down his spine, meaning these guys were carrying weapons that posed a great threat to him.

#, Uzi submachine gun!

Lu Ming's eagle-eyed vision swept across the area and he suddenly noticed that there was an Uzi submachine gun hidden near each of the security personnel. This sent a chill down his spine. There was almost no cover in the hall. If these security personnel were to raise their submachine guns and start firing, even if he were made of iron, he would be riddled with holes.

With a smile on his face, Big Eyes said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "I'm sorry, sir, this is a private exhibition. Unless you have a search warrant, I cannot let you in."

"Where is your general manager? Tell him to come out and talk to me!"

When Chan Ka-kui saw that Da-yan was preventing him from going in, he became even more suspicious that something had gone wrong at the jewelry exhibition, and immediately told Da-yan to call out the general manager.

At this moment, Lu Ming suddenly patted Chen Jiaju on the shoulder and shook his head understandingly, saying, "Jiaju, they are just working people, there's no need to make things difficult for them."

hiss~

However, his action startled the group of thugs, including Big Eyes, who were disguised as security personnel. They gasped in shock, their eyes widening as they looked at Lu Ming, who had suddenly appeared, with suspicion and uncertainty.

In their eyes, only Chen Jiaju and Li Jie had entered, and they hadn't noticed Lu Ming in stealth mode at all. So when Lu Ming suddenly jumped out, he immediately startled them.

Upon hearing Lu Ming's words, Chen Jiaju immediately realized that Lu Ming had made some significant discovery, and this was a reminder for him to retreat temporarily.

"You want a search warrant, right? Just you wait."

He deliberately put on a stern face, gave a cold snort, and then stormed out of the Grand Hotel.

Lu Ming smiled apologetically at the security personnel, "I'm sorry, my friend has a rather fiery temper, I'm sorry for the trouble."

"Forehead!"

Before Da Yan and the others could recover from Lu Ming's sudden appearance, they watched helplessly as the three disappeared before their eyes.

"Was I seeing things? How many people actually came in?"

"I saw two."

"Me too."

"Then—where did the third person come from?"

They looked at each other, completely bewildered.

"Ah Ming, did you discover something that led you to order us to retreat?"

Once outside, the three of them turned into a corner, and Chen Jiaju couldn't wait to ask a question.

Lu Ming took a deep breath and said in a serious tone, "They were all carrying an Uzi submachine gun. If we had clashed with them just now, we would have been riddled with bullets in an instant."

He doesn't believe in any protagonist's halo.

"It seems that the jewelry exhibition has been taken over by this gang of thugs, and the people from the political department have already been taken into custody, which is why they lied and said that everything at the exhibition was normal."

Chen Jiaju felt heavy-hearted. Rather than saying he had brought them under control, it was more accurate to say that most of the political corps members had been eliminated.

Although he disliked the lackeys of the British in the Political Department, they were still colleagues.

The rabbit mourns the fox's death.

The thought of so many of his men dying at the hands of bandits made him feel suffocated.
