Reborn in 1993, Dark Sea

On the way back, An Xiaohai frowned.

The feeling of Haixi Province is completely different from that of Haidong Province, or rather, the feeling of Nancheng City is completely different from that of Shenhai City.

In general, the Haifoye organization is more discreet than the Feibiao Gang, and there is no one similar to Zhu Polong in the entire Haixi Province. In Haixi Province, the Haifoye family is the only one in power. On the surface, it is relatively harmonious, but the darkness and cruelty inside is much more serious than in Haidong Province.

Why do I say that?

In Shenhai City, many people know about individuals or organizations such as Zhu Polong, Gui Laoqiang, Hu Haikong, the Chen brothers, and Haiyaozi. They are almost open about their activities, but Hu Haikong, Zhu Polong, and Haiyaozi are too well hidden to be easily caught.

But the Chen brothers and the foreigner Qiang are actually under control. The police and the security department keep a close eye on them, and if they dare to show their faces, they will suffer a terrible death.

That's why the Chen brothers took turns going to prison; the foreigner Qiang had a list that Xu Congzhou knew all about.

Zhu Polong, Hu Haikong, and Haiyaozi were able to evade justice for so long entirely because the Shenhai City Public Security Bureau had been so heavily infiltrated.

But Haixi Province is different. An Xiaohai has already given a clear indication, and despite the full investigation by the Haixi Provincial Security Department, they still cannot find any suspicious points about Xu Chonghua, which is a bit strange.

An Xiaohai did not believe that this was entirely due to the dereliction of duty by the Security Department, or that the Haixi Provincial Police had been infiltrated too much. It was more likely that the two were very different in terms of organization and methods.

According to the information provided by Xu Tianyou, Hai Foye had a lot of connections with the police. An Xiaohai estimated that at least 70% to 80% of the corrupt police officers were already on the list.

These corrupt police officers are also significantly different from those in the Shenhai City Public Security Bureau:

In the Shenzhen Municipal Public Security Bureau, the main problem was that spies were planted at the higher levels, and not many of the lower-level police officers were corrupted and controlled. However, in Haixi Province, the situation was completely the opposite, with a large number of lower-level police officers being corrupted and controlled.

One thing is certain now: both Hai Foye and the Flying Bird Gang are secretly controlled by An Zhehao, or rather, they were created by him.

The main functions of these two organizations are to amass wealth, to gather intelligence, and to do things that An Cheol-ho or the Abyss Organization cannot do themselves, such as killing people or controlling officials.

There is a deeper reason why Ahn Cheol-ho chose to create two drug trafficking organizations to do these things, which stems from his antisocial and inhumane personality.

Drug trafficking organizations are extremely destructive to society and their harm is far-reaching. It is precisely because of these characteristics that Ahn Cheol-ho chose to join a drug trafficking organization.

If it's solely for the benefit of the Abyss Organization, then Pig Dragon's method is the best choice—it's faster and safer to make money.

Since both the Haifoye organization and the Flying Bird Gang are controlled by and serve An Zhehao, why is their behavior in Haixi Province so different from that in Haidong Province?

The reason is most likely that it lies with Zhu Polong, or rather, with that woman named Jiang Ting. And Jiang Ting is confirmed to be a member of the Abyss Organization, so the root cause lies with the Abyss Organization.

Having clarified this relationship, An Xiaohai can draw a conclusion: the Abyss Organization intervened in Haidong Province, created a "Pig Dragon," and controlled the underground banks and casinos in Shenhai City.

An Zhehao likely doesn't have complete control over the projects run by Zhu Polong; the real control lies with the Abyss Organization. The Abyss Organization sent Jiang Ting to manage this area, and Jiang Ting is ostensibly under An Zhehao's management.

The Flying Bird Gang is likely an organization that Ahn Cheol-ho privately controls or established. Therefore, the Flying Bird Gang and Pig Dragon are not completely interconnected; there are certain connections and cooperative relationships between them.

It is precisely because the Abyss Organization has intervened in Haidong Province that the underworld of Haidong Province has become much more flamboyant. This is consistent with Jiang Ting's personality; her living in a mansion and driving a luxury car is the best proof of this.

It is clearly foolish for a member of a spy organization to be so ostentatious.

If it weren't for An Zhehao keeping her in check, Jiang Ting might have been even more outrageous.

Jiang Ting, this woman, is very likely unaware that the Flying Bird Gang is an organization controlled or created by An Zhehao. This woman has always been manipulated by An Zhehao.

The underground world of Haixi Province was created by An Zhehao, which is why it exhibits its current characteristics: outwardly harmonious and secretive, but inwardly even more brutal.

Xu Chonghua's dual nature within Haixi International Group is so thoroughly divided that it's difficult to detect.

This is more like An Zhehao's style; this is the root cause of the slow response of the Haixi Provincial Security Department.

Looking at the timeline, the development of the Haifoye organization was much later than that of the Feibiao Gang. In fact, it could be said that the Haifoye organization only began to develop or truly emerge after Xu Tianyou joined.

If everything proceeds according to Ahn Cheol-ho's plan, the following situation will occur:

Xu Tianyou controls the entire Haifoye organization and the entire underworld of Haixi Province; while An Xiaohai takes over the Feibiao Gang and controls the entire underworld of Haidong Province.

In this way, the underground world of Haidong and Haixi provinces was completely under An Zhehao's control.

In this process, Xu Tianyou had a relatively smoother time, mainly because Haixi Province was already under An Zhehao's control. As long as Xu Tianyou eliminated all the enemies within Haifoye's organization, he could smoothly take over power.

At that time, Xu Zhijie will control Haixi International Group, becoming the positive side, while Xu Tianyou will control Haifoye Group, becoming the negative side. The pattern is very clear!

And what about Haidong Province? If it weren't for An Xiaohai, what would An Zhehao's original plan have been? Who did he arrange to control the entire underground world of Haidong Province?

An Xiaohai mentally went through everyone he had met or heard of in Haidong Province.

There isn't a single person like that! It's also unclear who An Zhehao wants to take over the underworld of Haidong Province. It seems that there's only one possibility left: the candidate is very likely An Zhehao himself!

Following this line of thought, many things that happened in Deepsea City became clearer.

The reason why the entire underground world of Deepsea City appears so vibrant may be due to An Zhehao's deliberate actions. The reason why Hu Haikong, the Chen brothers, and Gui Laoqiang can keep running around is because An Zhehao is indulging them.

Why would Ahn Cheol-ho tolerate them? There are only two possible reasons:

First, it was to confuse the public and hide the Flying Bird Gang in the shadows; second, it was to deal with Jiang Ting, or rather, to take the spoils without alerting the Abyss Organization.

Hu Haikong, the Chen brothers, and the foreigner Qiang were the scapegoats chosen by An Zhehao.

Among these, Hu Haikong's relationship with Jiang Ting and Zhu Polong was likely the one that developed, while An Zhehao merely tacitly acknowledged it. Therefore, Hu Haikong was most deeply entangled with Zhu Polong, and Zhu Polong's downfall directly led to the collapse of the entire Haikong Group.

The Chen brothers and the foreigner Qiang got a share of the profits in Shenzhen, but they weren't attacked by An Zhehao. It's highly likely that they were there to cover for each other if something happened.

If Jiang Ting gets into trouble, An Zhehao only needs to step in and wipe out these two groups to give the Abyss Organization an explanation, and at the same time, he can also obtain most of the wealth and territory of Zhu Polong, the Chen brothers, and Gui Laoqiang.

Then, through the Flying Bird Gang, An Zhehao completed his control over the entire underground world of Haidong Province.

It is precisely because of this that the Chen brothers are often suppressed. They are local bullies in Shenhai City, and if they are allowed to develop freely, they will easily become too powerful to control. Therefore, every once in a while, An Zhehao will find a way to strike them down.

We cannot let them be too weak, but we also cannot let them be too strong.

As for the foreign power, he is, after all, an outsider, and no matter how much he develops, he can never defeat the local power.

Moreover, the foreigner Qiang was also involved in political struggles, which was a death sentence. It is possible that this is why the security department was watching him, which is why An Zhehao did not take action against him.

However, to An Zhehao's surprise, An Xiaohai rose to prominence in a short period of time, disrupting all his plans.

"No, no! I didn't disrupt his plans. In his view, everything is still under his control!" An Xiaohai gritted his teeth.

An Zhehao chose to control Haidong Province, and it was originally An Xiaohai who did it! An Zhehao has also been using his own methods to pressure him and Xu Tianyou.

Xu Tianyou was beaten while buying medicine for his mother, which led to Lan Caiwei's death. It was Gui Liu who was responsible. Gui Liu is a member of the Flying Bird Gang. An Xiaohai accidentally killed someone. It was Jian Long who secretly fueled the fire. Jian Long is also a member of the Flying Bird Gang!

An Zhehao has been using his methods to destroy everything beautiful around An Xiaohai and Xu Tianyou, trying to make them resent society and the world, and ultimately turn them into demons like him!

He just didn't expect that An Xiaohai and Xu Tianyou had been on the opposite side of him from the very beginning!

Xu Tianyou chose to play along, pretending to submit and change, while secretly accumulating his strength and preparing to resist with the determination to die.

Xu Tianyou once told An Xiaohai that he would end his life after he avenged his mother. This was not his true intention. If he really wanted to commit suicide, he would not have waited until after he had avenged his mother.

He's already avenged himself, what reason is there for suicide? Lan Caiwei practically burned her own life so that he could live well. How could Xu Tianyou face Lan Caiwei if he committed suicide?

Xu Tianyou did not intend to commit suicide, but was resisting with the determination to die.

An Xiaohai, on the other hand, exceeded An Zhehao's expectations both times.

The first time, An Xiaohai was completely defeated and became a useless pawn; but this time, his speed of attack was too fierce, and his crazy and effective attack caught An Zhehao off guard.

The reason for the stark contrast between An Xiaohai and Xu Tianyou is quite simple:

Lan Caiwei's poor health caused Xu Tianyou to suffer most of the time. His resilience was much stronger than that of the original An Xiaohai, which is why he was able to turn the tables on her.

Chen Shuifen was in good health and had always protected An Xiaohai well. In addition, An Xiaohai had hyperthymesia and had always been a prodigy who had hardly experienced any setbacks since childhood. So when the huge blow came, he completely broke down.

An Xiaohai's outstanding performance this time was not because he was better than Xu Tianyou, but because this was his second chance!

"An Zhehao!" An Xiaohai clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.

After analyzing this, An Xiaohai suddenly understood why An Zhehao kept switching the babies. Ultimately, it was to extinguish their last glimmer of hope at the crucial moment!
