Reborn in 1993, Dark Sea

"Lu Guoliang, stop saying these useless things!" Zhou Zhengguo's voice came again.

"Yeah, he's useless, I can't be bothered to talk to him!"

……

"After I returned to work at the bureau, I found that the work environment had changed drastically. The location had changed, a new building had been built, the departments were becoming more and more complete, and the division of labor was becoming more and more detailed."

Most importantly, each department now has its own office.

This is uncomfortable.

In the past, everyone worked in one place, and the bureau could hardly keep any secrets. As long as you paid attention to what people were saying, you could collect all kinds of information.

But by then, that was impossible.

The bureau's various rules and regulations are being improved, and everyone's treatment has been greatly improved. After several crackdowns, the social atmosphere has also improved a lot.

Times have changed, everything is changing.

In those days, it seemed inappropriate to simply take money to someone's home and bribe the police, as was the case in the past.

The way the Waterbird Gang operates has also undergone tremendous changes.

If they continue to operate openly as before, they will definitely face certain death. The processing, transportation, and distribution of drugs have undergone tremendous changes and have become increasingly complex.

When I first returned to work, I was clearly struggling to keep up with both tasks.

The armed police are also making rapid progress, with increasingly strict controls, making it more and more difficult to smuggle drugs in.

With Wang Tiejun and Zhou Meng working tirelessly to combat drugs, our situation is becoming increasingly difficult.

I told that person all of this, and not long after, he brought me some listening devices and asked me to find a way to install them in the station.

To be honest, I was terrified when I saw those listening devices. They were so advanced that it was impossible for a drug trafficking organization to acquire them.

But that person told me that technology is advancing very rapidly, especially abroad, where progress can be described as rapid and ever-changing. Those listening devices aren't considered very advanced overseas; you can buy them as long as you know the channels.

I was anxious for a long time, and even called Amei to ask her to check over there and see if I could buy something similar on the market.

Thankfully, Amei managed to buy some. While not as advanced as the ones I had, they were about the same. Only after confirming this did I dare install the listening devices at the station.

"You mean you installed these listening devices in the department ten years ago?!"

Yes, to be precise, it was nine years ago.

However, the equipment back then was much more rudimentary than it is now, and it had to be connected to an external power source. I didn't dare install many of them, and only installed them in a few important offices.

That was really tiring!

I lived in constant fear, afraid that someone would discover these listening devices. At that time, the listening devices had to be monitored in real time, and I was afraid of missing some important information, so I had to leave early and return late every day.

I'm so tired!

And you, you think I'm dedicated to my job, that I keep working despite my illness, and that you rate me as an advanced worker every year.

Haha! A half-grade raise every year, a few trophies to bring home every year, who cares about this junk!

I was thinking to myself, these trophies are displayed in every office, and everyone treats them like their own lives, they cherish them so much. If I could put listening devices in these trophies, that would definitely expose us.

To my surprise, this wish came true very quickly.

Technological progress is indeed advancing rapidly. In the 90s, the latest type of listening device arrived. It was small in size, did not require an external power supply, could monitor in real time, record audio, and even be wirelessly controlled!

Now I'm finally free.

From then on, I tampered with almost every trophy, and soon there were no secrets left in the organization.

During this period, the Waterbird Gang's organizational structure continued to evolve, with increasingly detailed divisions of labor. By 90, I no longer needed to worry about anything else; I only needed to focus on collecting information from the bureau.

However, I know almost all the members of the Waterbird Gang in Deep Sea City. That person couldn't keep it from me. If I didn't know the Waterbird Gang members in Deep Sea City, I wouldn't be able to keep a close eye on them.

"Now, take out your pens, I'm going to start listing the members of the Waterbird Gang..."

The next scene shows Lu Guoliang listing the members of the Waterbird Gang in Deep Sea City one by one.

Lu Guoliang provided very detailed information, including the names of these people, their social backgrounds, the time they joined the Waterbird Gang, and their division of responsibilities within the Waterbird Gang.

An Xiaohai listened attentively, and Zhou Zhengguo would occasionally offer some explanations to him in a low voice.

Lu Guoliang spoke for a full half hour before he finished explaining the identities of all the members of the Waterbird Gang.

To An Xiaohai's surprise, Guo Xiangshui's status in the Waterbird Gang was not very high. On the contrary, Li Maocai, who was by his side, had a much higher status in the Waterbird Gang than Guo Xiangshui. He was even one of the candidates for the next generation of Sea Hawks in Deep Sea City!

As for Gui Liu, he is not one of Lu Guoliang's men. Gui Liu is the man in charge of maritime transportation, Haiyaozi.

Recalling the details of his interactions with Guo Xiangshui and his gang, An Xiaohai couldn't help but feel a little scared.

Only by truly understanding the organizational structure of the Waterbird Gang can one truly appreciate how dangerous it was back then! Sitting in front of the TV listening to Lu Guoliang recount the list is a completely different experience from what I actually went through.

An Xiaohai's small doubt was also resolved with Lu Guoliang's explanation. His encounter with the Big Circle Gang outside the First Prison and his subsequent rescue by Guo Fang was most likely orchestrated by Li Maocai in secret.

Guo Xiangshui wouldn't use Guo Fang to set a trap, but Li Maocai had absolutely no such psychological barrier.

Lu Guoliang is right, they are all pawns!

"Have you confessed everything?" Zhou Zhengguo asked in the video footage.

"Of course not, not at all!"

More than 20 years have passed; it's not something that can be explained in just a few words. So much has happened in 20 years...

However, I don't think you'll be interested in these things. I've already told you everything you most wanted to know. The rest are just minor details, and they're from a long time ago...

Honestly, I often feel confused myself. Sometimes I can't tell whether something just happened or it happened many years ago.

I don't even understand it myself.

Hurry up and arrest them! Time is running out. If you're any slower, we'll have wasted our time. Go! Hurry up and arrest them all! Catch the Waterbird Gang members and wipe them out in one fell swoop!

This is good for you, and good for me too.

Lu Guoliang fell silent, and the sounds on the screen became somewhat noisy, presumably Zhou Zhengguo and Wang Tiejun in the interrogation position beginning their operation.

An Xiaohai, who was watching the interrogation video, originally thought that the interrogation had come to an end, but to his surprise, Lu Guoliang spoke up again.

"Director Zhou, please wait a moment. There is something very important that I haven't told you yet, but I want to talk to you alone. Please ask the others to leave first."

Zhou Zhengguo had clearly agreed to Lu Guoliang's request, and after a period of noise, the scene became completely quiet.

"Speak, now that it's just the two of us here, is there anything else you want to say?"

"There is another very important situation."

Three years ago, the Seahawks, responsible for maritime transport for the Waterbird Gang, established a crucial transport hub. Since then, almost all drugs in Deepsea City have entered the city through that hub.

Where is this transportation hub located?

"Apojiao Village refers to the marine environmental observation station located on the beach of Apojiao Village."

After saying this, Lu Guoliang turned to look at the camera. And so, through the television screen, Lu Guoliang's eyes met those of An Xiaohai, who was watching the recording.

"An Xiaohai, you've already discovered this transportation node, haven't you? You should have already discovered it. When you appeared in front of me just now and threatened me with the lives of my whole family, I understood that you must have already discovered it."

I didn't do it. It was all done by Haiyaozi, who was in charge of maritime transport. Jianlong was also one of his men.

The sea hawks, responsible for maritime transport, had long had an agreement with that environmental organization. They were responsible for finding the location and purchasing the land, while the environmental organization was responsible for handling all the formalities. Together, they established a marine environmental observation station.

Furthermore, it was agreed that each party would have half of the right to use the marine environmental observation station.

They've got their eye on your location. They've set up a marine environmental observation station there, so they can use horizontal directional drilling rigs to create temporary underwater tunnels to transport drugs.

They went to your mother, but she absolutely refused to sell the house, which led to what happened next.

Zhou Tie harassed your girlfriend at Jian Long's instigation, choosing the day you came home for vacation. Their goal was to get you and Zhou Tie into a fight so they could injure him and force your mother to sell the house.

This way, everything will seem perfectly reasonable and won't attract anyone's attention.

The knife you used to stab Zhou Tie was given to you by Jian Long. It was all part of a setup.

I've said it before, we're all pawns, and you're no exception. Stop being a pawn, stop being used...

Zhou Tie was the illegitimate son of a powerful figure, a fact we only learned later; it was just an accident.

sorry!

I apologize to you. Although I didn't do any of this, I was aware of it from beginning to end. I just hope that telling you the truth now will help you.

I beg you, I beg you to spare my family, please don't kill them all, I beg you!

You can take all the wealth I've accumulated; it's all yours! Show this video to Amei, and she'll give you all the money.

Please, spare them! Spare my wife, spare my son!

On the television screen, Lu Guoliang slammed his head heavily onto the table with a loud bang.
