Hong Kong variety show: I Am a Tycoon

Chapter 529 Shallow Water King 8

At this moment, inside the West Kowloon Police Station.

After getting his wound bandaged, Lü Mingzhe returned to his office with a gloomy expression.

The fact that a hostage was killed by bandits in front of him is something that even a qualified police officer would find hard to accept.

Although he knew who the perpetrator was, he had no evidence whatsoever and could not convict him.

Although he always said that rules are rules, when he was alone, Lü Mingzhe had thought several times about just going to Cao Nan's house and shooting that bastard to death.

Inside the office, the officers were investigating the gang of criminals.

They wanted to identify several people by using numerous closed-circuit television cameras inside the house.

After searching for a long time, they found two robbers.

One was apprehended by the police, while the other escaped.

As for the main culprit, Cao Nan, we haven't even been able to find him.

Lu Mingzhe sat in his office for a while, then took Cao Nan's photo and went into the police officers' office area.

When the police officers saw Lu Mingzhe approaching, they all stood up to greet him.

After all, these days, the educational requirements for police officers are getting higher and higher, and they no longer have the same drive as before.

Having a boss who leads by example instead of hiding in his car is already a rare thing.

The police officers under his command all respected Lu Mingzhe greatly.

Lu Mingzhe waved his hand, then posted Cao Nan's photo on the blackboard: "Cao Nan is suspected of five robberies, and has appeared in court twice as a defendant! Once, a witness suffered amnesia, and once, a witness was hit and killed by a car! He even deliberately countersued us!"

"Listen up, everyone! I need this person, this look, in this car! I need evidence, evidence that can be used in court! Understand?"

Upon hearing Lü Mingzhe's words, everyone busied themselves again.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Lu Mingzhe opened the door to the office area and saw an unexpected person.

This person is Cao Nan!
Lu Mingzhe hadn't expected that this bastard would dare to come and provoke him, and his eyes immediately sharpened.

Cao Nan smiled and said, "Excuse me for bothering you, I was running errands on the street and just happened to find this! I wonder which officer left it behind."

As he spoke, Cao Nan picked up his police officer ID.

And this police officer was one of the officers who had previously fought a shootout with the criminals!

This guy deliberately sent the documents over to provoke Lü Mingzhe.

"Thank you!" Lu Mingzhe said to Cao Nan, suppressing his anger.

Cao Nan, however, went a step further and said, "This is the responsibility that we good citizens should fulfill."

However, when he looked at the other officers in the Major Crimes Unit, he noticed that each of them had a photo of themselves in one of their own pictures, and he immediately exclaimed, "I didn't expect I'd be so famous here!"

"Quite famous!" Lu Mingzhe laughed along.

Cao Nan nodded: "You've really worked hard. Being a superior isn't easy!"

After saying that, he smugly said to the officers from the Major Crimes Unit, "Good luck! Bye-bye!"

Watching Cao Nan's departing figure, Lü Mingzhe's face immediately darkened.

……

The next day, at a tea restaurant in the early morning.

Chen Jiajun was enjoying his morning tea while reading the newspaper.

A moment later, Li Wenbin appeared in the tea restaurant.

Looking at Li Wenbin, who had grown a beard, Chen Jiajun said with a smile, "You're a father now, even growing a beard! When are you planning to get married?"

Li Wenbin shook his head and said, "I guess we'll have to wait until things calm down after this busy period!"

Chen Jiajun asked curiously, "What have you been busy with lately?"

"It's all about South Asians. There are more and more undocumented South Asians, and these people are starting to get involved in organized crime. They're constantly fighting with local Hong Kong gangsters for territory, and the two sides are locked in fierce battles!" Li Wenbin shook his head and said, "My men are working like donkeys, constantly complaining to me!"

Chen Jiajun nodded: "The police officers on the front line do have a very tough job."

Li Wenbin sighed and said, "I originally thought things would improve after Huang Yuanbin left, but I didn't expect things to remain the same!"

Chen Jiajun said with a smile, "Another promotion to senior superintendent has been blocked?"

“It’s not just about promotions,” Li Wenbin said, clenching his fist. “Some people just like to hold us back, which has prevented us from bringing suspects to court several times!”

Chen Jiajun said calmly, "It's normal for the police force to have so many spies planted by the British. But the good thing is that after the establishment of the 30th and 43rd Bureaus, your police force is under the jurisdiction of the Security Bureau, so at least they won't dare to go too far. As for the rest, you'll have to rely on yourself!"

After all, it's not so convenient for Chen Jiajun to do some things now that he's back.

Li Wenbin nodded, his eyes resolute, and said, "I will persevere!"

"Okay, let's not talk about that anymore. How's the investigation going?" Chen Jiajun asked.

Li Wenbin handed a document to Chen Jiajun and said, "You said the person who robbed the armored truck is very likely this guy! Cao Nan!"

Chen Jiajun opened the file bag, and Cao Nan's photo immediately appeared in front of him.

Li Wenbin continued, "This guy has been incredibly arrogant lately. He's the mastermind behind several robberies! The police have arrested him several times, but he's always been acquitted due to insufficient evidence or the lack of witnesses in court!"

"However, this guy is already on the police's radar! My colleagues at the West Kowloon Police Station are keeping an eye on him, but there's nothing they can do about him for now!"

"I heard that after hijacking the armored truck, this guy deliberately sent the police ID that had fallen off the scene to the police station. My colleagues in the West Kowloon Major Crimes Unit are furious!" "I understand!" Chen Jiajun nodded, his eyes sharp, and said, "You police need evidence when you investigate cases! But while you police do, I don't! Last time we wiped out all the gangs in Hong Kong, so doing it again is no problem!"

Cao Nan was incredibly audacious; after provoking the police, he prepared to continue his robbery.

However, after the police had an informant, they quickly located the hiding place of Cao Nan and his group.

Lu Mingzhe equipped his forces with sufficient firepower and prepared to launch a surprise attack on their stronghold.

However, Cao Nan was cunning enough to have already installed surveillance cameras inside the building.

The police were discovered immediately after entering the building.

As a result, the two sides engaged in another fierce battle.

This time, Cao Nan even used explosives, causing heavy losses to the Major Crimes Unit.

However, the Major Crimes Unit did not come away empty-handed.

At least one of Cao Nan's accomplices has been caught.

The robbers who appeared last time were killed by Cao Nan and their bodies were left in the wilderness.

However, this time the police caught a survivor.

That same day, Lü Mingzhe conducted a surprise interrogation of the robber and obtained the results.

So, once outside the interrogation room, Lü Mingzhe immediately perked up and said to his men, "Prepare to arrest them!"

This marks a breakthrough in Lü Mingzhe's investigation of Cao Nan's case after such a long time.

So without thinking too much, they went straight to Cao Nan's company.

After finding Cao Nan's employee downstairs and confirming that the guy was still at the company, they immediately went to the door to arrest him.

"Mr. Cao, these police officers..."

Before the female secretary could finish speaking, Lu Mingzhe's deputy said directly, "Mr. Cao, we have reason to believe that you are involved in an armed robbery, murder, and several other attempted murder cases. Please come back with us to assist in the investigation!"

Cao Nan was practicing calligraphy at that moment. Upon hearing Lu Mingzhe's deputy's words, he took out his phone and said, "Wait a minute, two minutes!"

Now that the person was already here, Lü Mingzhe wasn't in a hurry.

While sending a text message, Cao Nan said to the police officers, "Officers, it's been a long time!"

The deputy said coldly, "Wait a minute, we just saw each other! But you just like to cover your face! Call a lawyer? Find a top-notch one!"

"Lawyers?" Cao Nan said dismissively, "You can't trust anyone! When I was in the army, my company commander told me he only trusted guns! When I was in business, my business partner said he only trusted money! Now my friend who's a thief says he should trust the law!"

"Because the law only considers evidence, and the law has no choice but to protect law-abiding citizens like us!"

As he spoke, Cao Nan pointed to his calligraphy and said to Lü Mingzhe, "I'm giving you these four characters. When you die, hang them in your funeral hall so everyone can see them. These four characters represent your entire life: 'Upholding the law and serving the public.' How glorious that is!"

Just as Cao Nan was sneering and provoking Lü Mingzhe, Lü Mingzhe's deputy suddenly received a text message.

Upon seeing the text message, his expression immediately changed.

Lu Mingzhe coldly said to Cao Nan, "Time's almost up. You may remain silent, but what you say can be used against you in court!"

Cao Nan calmly said to Lü Mingzhe, "Don't worry, he definitely has something to say to you!"

As he spoke, Cao Nan turned his gaze to the deputy standing next to Lü Mingzhe.

The deputy said a few words to Lü Mingzhe with a grim expression, and Lü Mingzhe's face also darkened.

After a moment of silence, Lü Mingzhe said to Cao Nan, "Excuse me, I've disturbed you!"

Cao Nan waved his hand in a very generous manner and said, "Don't be shy, come visit anytime!"

Lu Mingzhe paused, then forced himself to suppress his anger and turned to leave.

Lu Mingzhe and his group returned to the police station, where the deputy said to a policewoman with great displeasure, "Explain clearly what happened!"

The policewoman said helplessly, "Blind Dragon insisted on calling back to his hometown, saying he would only sign a statement after speaking with his wife. After he finished the call, we ordered takeout for him, and suddenly he swallowed the evidence and jumped off the building!"

"Why did you make him make the call?" the deputy asked, frowning.

The police prosecutor, looking speechless, said, "In Hong Kong, everything revolves around human rights!"

The deputy, left with no other option, turned to another piece of evidence: "The surveillance footage from the Funing Building?"

“Those buildings are about to be demolished, just for show. There are no CDs, no hard drives!” another police officer said helplessly.

Then the police officer who was investigating Tao Chengbang came in: "We've checked. Tao Chengbang is the one who hit someone in the head with his car. He has an alibi!"

"So, Cao Nan got away with it again?" the deputy said, extremely unwilling.

But faced with this situation, none of the people present could do anything.

"Where the mountain is low, monkeys hang; where the water is shallow, turtles leap!"

Chen Jiajun snorted coldly and said unhappily after seeing the information his subordinates had sent him.

Chen Jiajun has seen people who exploit legal loopholes to exonerate themselves.

Even the lawyer Du Housheng, who had previously gone mad, was eventually arrested.

Most importantly, this guy seemed to be specifically targeting him, based on multiple police intelligence reports.

Chen Jiajun's businesses were among the targets of their actions.

If Chen Jiajun doesn't give some response soon, people will think that he, the "King of Hong Kong," is finished! (End of Chapter)
