After ten years undercover, I'm giving up.

Chapter 107 The Rules of the Martial World Have Changed

overnight!

Investigate!

He's trying to steal the credit!

The more I think about it, the more I realize that such a great achievement would be a waste of material if it doesn't make the news tomorrow.

So, Ma Zhichao took out his phone and dialed Fang Siwei directly.

The moment the call connected, Fang Siwei's angry roar, tinged with morning grumpiness, came through the other end: "You damn bastard! It's almost one in the morning, what are you calling for? Don't other people need to sleep?"

Ma Zhichao cut to the chase: "I have some juicy tidbits, are you in or not? If you don't come, I'll pass the news on to that vixen, Yue Huizhen."

"You dare!" Fang Siwei instantly snapped to his senses, gritting his teeth as he said, "Thirty minutes, I'll be there!"

Ma Zhichao lazily added, "I'll be waiting for you in room 808 of the Cointreau Hotel."

"..."

Hey!

Fang Siwei was so angry he almost exploded on the spot.

Is this person's brain filled with nothing but that kind of dirty nonsense?

Just then, Stephen Chow knocked on the door and came in, just in time to hear the last sentence.

Stephen Chow: "..."

Hey boss, you make us stay up all night at the police station and lose our hair, but you're preparing to go to a hotel to meet your goddess?

Have some decency!

……

The next morning.

As if it had become a habit, all Hong Kong citizens sat in front of their televisions on time, waiting for the news to start.

In a breakfast shop.

A police officer named Ah Hui almost got caught at a brothel the first two times he went there. Last night was even worse. He had already paid the money, but before he could even get intimate with the woman, he was forced to jump out of the window and run away. He was furious.

So this morning, he ordered a few raw eggs and cracked them all into a cup.

Amidst the indifferent gazes of the surrounding diners, he tilted his head back and downed the entire gulp.

"belch--"

Just then, the television on the wall started playing TVB's morning news.

"I wonder what explosive news will break today."

"I heard that the West Kowloon Turtle Commissioner finally poked his head out last night. I wonder if Johnny Wong made a move."

"Should I watch TVB or ATV first?"

"Let's watch TVB for now, then switch channels later."

Soon, the news officially began.

Good morning, fellow citizens of Hong Kong Island.

"Now we have an important news to report."

"Last night, Officer Ma was having a late-night snack at a pork offal congee stall..."

The television footage showed Ma Zhichao sitting at a late-night food stall, drinking porridge.

The cheers and praises from the surrounding citizens were all captured on camera.

When Ahui saw this, his heart ached.

Because last night's operation was a joint operation between the West Kowloon PTU and the Ministry of Transport.

It's obvious that Ma Zhichao was the one directing things behind the scenes.

He himself spent money once again, but failed to accomplish anything of importance and was forced to flee in a sorry state.

awful!

However, one thing is one thing.

Although Ah Hui was upset, he still greatly admired Ma Zhichao's recent performance.

Ma Zhichao truly deserves the title of "police hero".

Soon, the scene cuts to the arrogant entrance of the Crow gang from East Star.

Then, Long-haired gangster cried and said he regretted joining the gang, while Crow cursed in public, acting arrogantly and conceitedly.

"I want to leave Tung Sing... I don't want to end up like Xiao Sang, taking the blame for you, serving five years in prison, and not even getting a resettlement allowance..."

"And then there's Big Guy... During that shootout with Hung Hing in Shek Kip Mei, his hands and feet were chopped off, his eyes were gone, his intestines spilled out, and his body was eventually thrown into a stinking ditch, so unrecognizable..."

"You swore an oath to follow me before Lord Guan, and now you want to leave just because you say you won't?"

Immediately afterwards, the camera showed the crow beating up the long-haired bird.

Finally, the crow even drew a machete, preparing to carry out its so-called family discipline in public.

The citizens were immediately enraged upon witnessing this scene.

"Damn it, these thugs are completely lawless!"

"They've always been this arrogant!"

"I almost ended up in the hospital because I accidentally bumped into a gangster once."

It's precisely because there are too many gangsters on Hong Kong Island, and they're too rampant and domineering.

The shadows cast by gangsters can be found in almost every corner of the city.

Many citizens have seen, experienced, or even been harmed by this.

So when they saw this scene, they were extremely angry and also felt a deep sense of empathy.

The next scene shows Ma Zhichao stepping forward and slapping the previously arrogant Crow repeatedly.

"good!"

"Well done!"

"Inspector Ma is so awesome! The other officers are all as spineless as shrimps. Tung Sing has been running rampant for so many years, and no one has ever touched them. They're utterly useless!"

At the breakfast shop, many diners couldn't help but clap and cheer.

The television cameras then cut to Ma Zhichao's speech from the previous night.

In my view, justice delayed is justice denied.

"Next, I will launch a large-scale operation to eradicate these social ills that harm the citizens!"

Ma Zhichao looks dignified and upright in the footage.

In addition to his handsome face, upright posture, and unwavering tone, he exudes a remarkable charisma.

"good!"

"Well said!"

"Well done, Officer Ma!"

Once again, cheers erupted from the breakfast shop.

Ahui watched TV, feeling both envious and admiring.

As a police officer with a modicum of sense, how could he not see that the Governor's Office was now adopting a laissez-faire attitude towards triads?

Ma Zhichao's words were practically a direct insult to the higher-ups.

You've got guts!

That's quite impressive!

The news broadcast ended quickly.

TVB started broadcasting other content, which was basically just rehashing old news from last night's 10 pm news.

"Boss, let's switch to ATV!"

The breakfast shop owner quickly switched to ATV.

I happened to hear the ATV host say, "Just last night, the West Kowloon Regional Mobile Force and Traffic Police, under the command of Inspector Ma Chi-Chiu, launched a raid."

"Police conducted raids on multiple illegal business premises and hideouts registered under the name of suspect Chen Tianxiong."

"Ultimately, the police successfully dismantled two drug manufacturing dens, seized a large quantity of contraband, and arrested several people suspected of illegal prostitution, drug trafficking, and soliciting prostitution."

"Now, please watch the live footage."

……

"Wow, Officer Ma's efficiency is amazing!"

"They arrested so many people so quickly?"

"Wow, that's amazing!"

"Look at how efficient Inspector Ma is. He caught Chan Tin-hung around 11 p.m., started sweeping the area at midnight, and the operation was basically over by 1 a.m.

"And look at the other cops, how many years have they been in this? They can't even handle a single triad!"

"Inspector Ma truly lives up to his reputation as a nemesis of crime!"

"If you ask me, Inspector Ma should just become the top cop!"

What is reputation?

That's reputation!

Ah Hui had clearly sensed that Ma Zhichao's influence was accumulating at an extremely terrifying speed.

It seems a super monster is about to emerge from the police force!

……

Early in the morning, Ma Zhichao rushed back to the police station from the Grand Hotel.

On the way, he bought a few newspapers.

Basically, all the major newspapers are reporting on his arrest of the crows at the late-night food stall last night, and the subsequent sweeping up of the crows' territory.

Unlucky as ever! Crow from Tung Sing runs headlong into Inspector Ma's gun.

Heroic police officers strike again, cracking down on organized crime.

"Tung Sing Crows Destroyed, Inspector Ma Sweeps the Place in One Night!"

"..."

It was almost entirely praise and flattery.

Halfway there, Tian Yangsheng got into the car and handed a stack of documents and several maps to Ma Zhichao.

These items are all evidence of Dongxing's crimes collected by Ma Zhichao's undercover agents who had been planted in various gangs.

"Oh……"

"We can launch a big operation today."

Ma Zhichao's eyes were slightly cold.

He is now the Chief Superintendent of Police and the Deputy Commissioner of the West Kowloon Police Department, which is considered a truly high-ranking and powerful position.

It was just cleaning up a club.

There's absolutely no need for any roundabout methods.

We'll just crush them with overwhelming force.

What kind of clowns are these? Crush them all!

The car drove all the way back to the police station.

"Officer Ma!"

He encountered several officers from the Major Crimes Unit on the road, all of whom stared at him expectantly.

They had already seen the operation last night in the news and newspapers.

envy!

regret!

I'd like to participate too!

Ma Zhichao arrived at the PTU Mobile Force office.
