After ten years undercover, I'm giving up.

Ma Zhichao hung up the phone immediately.

He snorted coldly.

Fang Jiexia usually speaks to him in a sarcastic or gritting tone. When has she ever been so gentle and considerate?

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon.

There's definitely something wrong!

Ring ring ring~~~

The phone rang again.

Ma Zhichao hung up without even looking at it.

Ring ring ring~~~

It rang again.

Keep hanging.

Trying to trick me?

No way!

……

……

Police Department.

Public Relations Department.

In Brown's office, Brown, the head of the Public Relations Department, and Cai Yuanqi, the head of the Operations Department, were waiting for Fang Jiexia's results.

Knock knock~~~

A knock came at the door.

Fang Jiexia pushed open the door and walked in.

Brown immediately looked up and sat up straighter: "So? When is Ma Zhichao coming?"

Fang Jiexia lowered her head, her tone somewhat stiff: "Sorry, sir, Ma Zhichao didn't answer my call."

Brown's face immediately darkened.

"Didn't you say you and Ma Zhichao had a good relationship?"

"Last time, the political department reported that they saw you and Ma Zhichao shopping together at The Landmark in Central."

Fang Jiexia felt a wave of despair wash over her.

Is our relationship considered good?

That's not a normal relationship at all!

She quickly tried to salvage the situation, saying, "Sir, please give me one more day. I will definitely find a way to get Ma Zhichao out."

At this point, Cai Yuanqi had lost patience to listen any longer.

He said coldly, "No need."

"If they can't handle it, then find someone else."

After saying that, he got up and left the office.

Brown's gaze turned colder as he looked at Fang Jiexia, and he said rudely, "You can leave now."

Fang Jiexia: "..."

She wanted to explain a few more things.

But seeing Brown's cold face, she could only swallow her words and turn to leave the office.

After returning to her seat, she had barely sat down when she heard Liang Ziwei next to her answer a phone call.

"Is the section chief looking for me?"

"Okay, I'm coming over now."

After hanging up the phone, Liang Ziwei quickly tidied her clothes, picked up her notebook, and hurried towards Brown's office.

Fang Jiexia: "..."

It’s over.

I think I may have really met my match this time.

Last time, she was promoted to superintendent because she seized the opportunity to perform meritorious service in advance.

Liang Ziwei not only didn't gain anything, but was also demoted in her police rank.

But this time, if Liang Ziwei succeeds, she might actually be able to catch up again.

What's more troublesome is that Liang Ziwei is younger than her.

Her looks are just as good as hers.

And that bastard Ma Zhichao...

Damn it!

Just thinking about this made Fang Jiexia's chest ache with anger!

……

……

An hour later.

Leung Tsz-wai arrived at the West Kowloon Headquarters Major Crime Unit office.

Here, she met Ma Zhichao, who was dressed in a police uniform, had a calm demeanor, and was so handsome that it was almost impossible to look away.

That overwhelming masculine charm is something that ordinary men simply cannot match.

After hearing her explain her purpose, Ma Zhichao raised an eyebrow slightly.

"So you mean I should step in and lure Wu Shaoxiong out?"

He appeared calm.

I almost burst out laughing inside.

He was worried about how to "reasonably" bring Wu Shaoxiong into his life.

Unexpectedly, the police department proactively delivered the pillow.

Since the police department took the initiative to bring this up, don't blame Mr. Ma for setting a price.

This time, if he doesn't force out a Chief Superintendent and a Deputy Commissioner, he won't be considered utterly despicable...

cough.

That's not the name of the righteous and awe-inspiring Ma Zhichao!

……

An hour later.

Police Headquarters.

Ma Zhichao finally arrived.

However, he didn't beat around the bush and went straight into the office of Cai Yuanqi, the head of the operations department.

As soon as he entered, he got straight to the point: "I know you want me to step in and lure Wu Shaoxiong out."

"Can."

"I have no objection."

"As a member of the Hong Kong Island Police Force, I bear the honor of being a police officer on my shoulders. This is my duty!"

At this point, Ma Zhichao puffed out his chest, his expression full of passion and fervor.

He looked as if he could risk his life for the police force at any moment.

Cai Yuanqi: "..."

I don't believe you for a second!

Last time you were just as righteous and awe-inspiring, but then you turned around and forcefully knocked out a senior superintendent's position!

Just thinking about it made Cai Yuanqi feel a tightness in his chest, and he almost had a heart attack.

He initially thought that Ma Zhichao lacked management experience and would make mistakes sooner or later after joining the Serious Crimes Unit.

I can easily find any excuse to suppress them again.

The results of it?

Ma Zhichao went to the Serious Crimes Unit, and instead of failing, he performed exceptionally well all the way.

He cracked two major arms trafficking cases in succession, firmly securing his position as the head of the serious crimes unit.

It's absolutely infuriating!

Suppressing his disgust, Cai Yuanqi said coldly, "Since you're willing, then this task is yours."

Ma Zhichao nodded: "No problem."

"However, Director, there are some things that need to be made clear beforehand."

"After all, this is risking one's life."

"Everyone can clearly see what happened to Chief Superintendent Scott and Chief Superintendent Smith."

"Wu Shaoxiong is a treacherous and ruthless man with a cunning mind."

"If I'm not careful, he could blow me to bits."

Cai Yuanqi had long anticipated that he would make demands.

So he wasn't too surprised to hear this, but he suppressed his anger and asked, "Just tell me, what do you want?"

Ma Zhichao extended his hand, his tone very calm.

"My request is very simple."

"Chief Superintendent."

"Plus the Deputy Commissioner of the West Kowloon Police Station."

"impossible!"

Cai Yuanqi's expression changed immediately, and his voice rose several decibels.

"That's absolutely impossible!"

Ma Zhichao spread his hands: "Then there's nothing to discuss?"

"I risked my life for this, and I have to be absolutely certain of it."

"Think about Scott, and then think about Smith."

"They were both dead, and what happened?"

"How many people still truly care about them?"

"Has their legacy already begun to be divided up?"

Cai Yuanqi's expression changed slightly.

Although Ma Zhichao's words were harsh, they were nonetheless a reflection of reality.

This era is in chaos.

In four years, they will leave Hong Kong Island.

So-called order, decency, and morality have long been torn apart.

Nowadays, many people only care about power and money.

When people like Scott and Smith die, countless people are eyeing their assets.

heritage?

I am a kind-hearted official and cannot bear to see orphans and widows crying. Giving you even a little bit is already the most benevolent thing I can do.

Why aren't you kneeling down to express your gratitude?

Ma Zhichao sneered, "If I die, my fate won't be much better than theirs."

In front of Cai Yuanqi, he didn't even bother to pretend to be a gentleman anymore.

Anyway, none of them are any good people.

They both knew it perfectly well.

Cai Yuanqi shook his head with a stern face: "Impossible."

"Don't you know how difficult it is to be promoted to the rank of Chief Superintendent?"

"Is the position of deputy director something that can be taken so easily?"

Ma Zhichao said calmly, "I was originally a senior superintendent."

"Given my current police rank, it is perfectly reasonable for me to concurrently serve as deputy commissioner."

Cai Yuanqi almost laughed out of anger.

"Have you forgotten how you got your position as Senior Superintendent?"

"That's money you extorted!"

Ma Zhichao said with a serious expression, "Director Cai, please don't slander someone's innocence out of thin air."

"That's reasonable compensation from the police."

Cai Yuanqi: "..."

He almost fainted from anger.

To smear someone's innocence?

Do you, Ma Zhichao, still have any innocence to speak of?

Why would someone like you need others to slander you?

Cai Yuanqi gritted his teeth and said, "In short, these two conditions are impossible to agree to."

Without saying a word, Ma Zhichao patted his clothes and stood up.

"Then there's no need to discuss it."

After saying that, he turned and walked out.

Cai Yuanqi's expression changed, and he quickly called out, "Ma Zhichao!"

"Even if we don't push you into the limelight, given Wu Shaoxiong's vengeful nature, you'll be his next target sooner or later!"

Ma Zhichao didn't turn his head, speaking casually, "Then I'll just stay in the police station from now on and not go out."

"Let's see who gets anxious first."

Cai Yuanqi: "..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ma Zhichao's figure disappeared around the corner of the corridor.

Cai Yuanqi sat there, so angry he almost wanted to smash the cup.

But in the end, he forced himself to endure it.

A moment later, he took a small recorder out of the drawer and pressed play.

"Sizzle sizzle..."
