Hong Kong Film: Short mules have no future, I am in charge of Hong Kong

Chapter 185 I Never Play Fake
Xi Mihua slammed the table and stood up, his eyes fierce: "Who dares to come to my place to cause trouble?"

Kanta put down the cards in his hand and said with a smile: "It seems that someone doesn't want us to play the game quietly tonight."

The noise outside the venue quickly escalated, and the sound of footsteps and shouts intertwined from the window into the gambling room, breaking the tense and restrained tension in the room. Xi Mihua turned his head to look at Chen Bing and whispered, "Who is making trouble outside? Have you found out?"

Chen Bing hurriedly leaned over to his ear and whispered, "Brother Hua, it seems that there are Su Hanze's people outside. I heard that there are several vans parked outside, blocking all our people."

"Brother Ze?" Xi Mihua frowned slightly, but soon relaxed. He picked up a cup of tea and took a sip, as if to hide the coldness in his eyes.

"Where is Brother Beer?" Xi Mihua looked around and found that Lu Dongbeer's seat was empty. The expression on his face suddenly became more gloomy.

"He was here just now. Could it be that Brother Pi sneaked out to watch the fun?" Xiao Wu said as he lowered his head and looked around, trying to find Lu Dongpi.

On the other side, Lu Dongpi appeared outside the venue. He was standing at the entrance of the venue, with his hands on his hips, looking at the vans surrounding the venue, and muttering: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, whose team is this? They put up such a big show, it's like they're shooting a movie."

Ah Quan followed behind him and whispered, "Brother Pi, is this Su Hanze trying to cause trouble for Brother Hua?"

"Trouble?" Lu Dongpi shook his head. "Brother Ze is not looking for trouble, he is looking for opportunities. In our underworld of Haojiang, how boring would life be without some drama to watch?"

In the venue, Kanta sat at the card table and watched Xi Mihua's reaction leisurely. He raised his hand and patted the table gently: "Brother Hua, this place is guarded by your people. If something like this happened, you don't even know the reason, right?"

"Kanta, stop being so sarcastic." Xi Mihua glanced at him and sneered, "Someone is making trouble, which means it's lively here. Unlike some people, the place is so deserted that even flies don't bother to come."

The eldest wife picked up the red wine glass, turned it gently, and smiled faintly: "Brother Hua's words are interesting. However, it is better to find out who is causing the trouble as soon as possible. The gambling game is in chaos, and no one can sit down peacefully."

"It seems that we can't play this card tonight." Kanta stood up and stretched. "In this case, Brother Hua, I think I'd better go back first, so that the water in the fish pond won't splash on me later."

Xi Mihua's eyes narrowed slightly, but a sneer was still on his face: "Want to leave? Kanta, this place belongs to me, Xi Mihua. You just leave when you say so. Don't you take me seriously?"

"Brother Hua misunderstood." Kanta said calmly, "I just think it would be more fun to come back and play after the troublemakers have finished making trouble."

The atmosphere of the gambling game completely changed. Everyone was trying to figure out the situation on and off the table. Chen Bing couldn't help but whispered, "Brother Hua, how about I take some people to smash those cars outside?"

"Smash the car?" Xi Mihua gave him a cold look and said, "If you dare to smash it, I'll smash you first."

At the same time, Lu Dongpi had already approached a van and knocked on the window. The window slowly rolled down, and a young man wearing sunglasses stuck his head out and looked at him coldly: "What are you doing?"

"Are you guys filming a movie or doing street art?" Lu Dongpi asked with a relaxed look on his face. "With such a big show, aren't you afraid that the traffic police will come and confiscate your license plate?"

The young man ignored him and slowly rolled up the car window. Lu Dongpi smiled and took two steps back, shaking his head and said, "How boring."

Ah Quan whispered, "Brother Pi, these guys don't seem to be joking. Should we go back and report it?"

"What news?" Lu Dongpi waved his hand. "We don't need to worry about this. Brother Ze's play is not so easy to unveil."

In the monitoring room of the venue, Su Hanze was carefully observing every detail on the screen. He tapped his fingers on the table and whispered to A Bing, "The people outside have almost finished their arrangements. Let them push forward one step."

"Brother Ze, do you really want to fight head-on?" A Bing hesitated. "If Kanta and Brother Hua's places collide, the fire will be very big."

"The bigger the fire, the more interesting the situation will be." Su Hanze smiled faintly, "Tonight's bet is not about cards, but about hearts."

The van outside suddenly started and slowly approached the venue. The people in the venue instantly became nervous. Xi Mihua looked at the screen coldly and raised his hand to light a cigarette: "My goodness, are you going to tear down the venue tonight?"

Kanta stood aside, still keeping his calm smile. He said slowly: "Brother Hua, if you can't even take care of the place, don't blame the brothers for looking down on you."

Xi Mihua flicked the ash off his cigarette, his eyes sharp as a knife: "Kanta, save this for later. It's still unclear who will get a swollen face tonight."

The convoy outside the stadium was getting closer and closer, like a sword hanging in the air, ready to fall at any time. Chen Bing stared at the monitoring screen, and sweat began to break out on his back. He couldn't help but whisper to Xi Mihua: "Brother Hua, these cars are coming over here, are we going to take action?"

"What's the hurry?" Xi Mihua blew out a smoke ring coldly, his voice so calm that it was hard to understand, "The fishhook has been cast, and you reeled it in without waiting for the fish to take the bait. Do you think I'm really here to watch the fun?"

Chen Bing listened to this, although he was still nervous, he could only grit his teeth and said nothing. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, and couldn't help turning his head to glance in the direction of the first wife, but found that she was still sitting dignified and elegant, and even sipping red wine carefully.

"Madam, aren't you worried?" Chen Bing couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

The first wife raised her head, her eyes swept over like knives, her voice gentle but chilling: "Chen Bing, worrying is useless. Don't you men just like these sword-fighting games? Why are you so nervous now? Just wait and watch the show."

Chen Bing was stunned by this and didn't know what to say. He turned to look at Xi Mihua and thought, "Has Brother Hua been seen through by the first wife?"

At the same time, Kanta sat aside, his fingers tapping on the table, looking at Xi Mihua with a bit of amusement in his eyes: "Brother Hua, I am most afraid of crowds, but tonight's place is so lively that I can't sit still."

"Can't sit still?" Xi Mihua's eyes flashed with coldness, but the corners of his mouth were still smiling, "Kanta, if you are not used to this atmosphere, you can leave now. The road at the door is wide enough for you to evacuate with your people."

"Brother Hua, what you said is not right." Kanta smiled slightly, "We are all people of the underworld. How can we just walk away from such a scene? But, Brother Hua, are you really sure about what will happen tonight?" Before Xi Mihua could speak, Lu Dongpi suddenly came back from outside. He pulled a chair and sat down with a bottle of beer: "Oh, Mr. Kanta, you sound like you are nitpicking. I say, in the underworld, isn't it the one who is steady who wins? Brother Hua is steady, why are you worrying about it?"

Kanta glanced at Lu Dongpi, smiled and shook his head: "Brother Pi is indeed the peacemaker in the place. He can still laugh so freely at a time like this."

"I don't have any other hobbies, I just love watching plays." Lu Dongpi raised his head and took a sip of beer, "It's a pity that the play tonight has a slow pace."

At this moment, the convoy outside the venue suddenly stopped. The doors opened, and a group of people got out of the car and stood in a row, each with a serious expression. When Chen Bing saw this, his heart suddenly tightened: "Brother Hua, they are about to move!"

"Don't panic, wait until you see it clearly." Xi Mihua's tone remained calm, even a little nonchalant.

Kanta also turned his head to look at the screen. His expression was still calm, but there was a flash of deep thought in his eyes. He leaned back in his chair and whispered, "This is quite interesting, but I still want to know who is behind this."

Just as everyone was staring at the screen, a figure slowly walked out from the back of the convoy, with an upright posture and a strong aura. Chen Bing looked closely and his eyes widened immediately: "Brother Hua, it's Brother Ze!"

Sure enough, Su Hanze came out from the back of the motorcade, his hands in his pockets, and walked steadily towards the main entrance of the venue. His appearance instantly made the atmosphere in the entire venue tense, and everyone's attention was attracted by the scene on the screen.

"Brother Ze came in person tonight?" Kanta raised his eyebrows slightly, seeming a little surprised.

"It seems he wants to take advantage of tonight to do something." The first wife put down her wine glass and smiled softly, "It's interesting. All three parties are here. This game is so lively that Haojiang has never seen it before."

Xi Mihua's face showed no emotion. He just stared at the screen and nodded: "Since you are here, please come in. If Brother Ze wants to talk, then I, Xi Mihua, will accompany you to talk."

Su Hanze sat down at the card table, his smile was three parts polite and seven parts calm. He looked around, his eyes fell between Xi Mihua and Kanta, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "You two, the underworld of Macao pays attention to clear accounts. Since you are all here tonight, why don't we talk openly about recent events."

Xi Mihua lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and looked at Su Hanze with a half-smile: "Brother Ze, you have revealed all your opening cards.

We haven't revealed our cards yet. Do you think it's appropriate to talk about it now?"

"That's right, Brother Ze." Kanta picked up the teacup and took a sip. "Whether you use your knife or your brain in the underworld, it's taboo for others to speak first. You suddenly showed up tonight, so the cards in your hand must be bigger than ours, right?"

Su Hanze was not in a hurry. He slowly picked up the teapot on the table and poured himself a cup of tea. He said calmly, "Brother Hua, Kanta, I don't have a big hand. I just think that sometimes the little things in the underworld are worth our attention. For example, the flow of goods in the East District has been a little strange recently."

Xi Mihua raised his eyebrows slightly, but quickly concealed it: "Brother Ze, do you think my men didn't do a good enough job, or do you suspect that Kanta's people have done something wrong?"

"I don't suspect anyone." Su Hanze gently put down his teacup and glanced at the two people. "But there have been problems with the flow of goods recently. I checked carefully and found that the problem lies in the diversion link. This diversion point happens to be the junction of the two territories. Don't you think it's a coincidence?"

Kanta laughed, put down the teacup in his hand, and picked up a toothpick instead: "Brother Ze, do you suspect that our two families are fighting each other? Or do you think that an outsider took advantage of the opportunity to attack?"

"Kanta, you and I both know who can enter and who can leave Haojiang's territory. It's unrealistic for outsiders to play tricks here." Su Hanze's tone was calm, but every word was like a bullet accurately hitting the key point, "The problem can only be with our own people."

Xi Mihua flicked the ash off his cigarette, his eyes gradually becoming sharper: "Brother Ze, my people follow the rules. Even if there is a problem at the junction, it can't be caused by my people."

Kanta twirled the toothpick in his hand slowly, with a hint of amusement on his lips: "Brother Hua is so sure, so he is saying that there is something wrong with my people?"

"I didn't say that." Xi Mihua's tone was cold and hard, his eyes confronting Kanta.

The atmosphere began to become subtle. Lu Dongpi suddenly laughed, stood up, and raised the beer bottle in his hand: "Don't be so nervous, Brother Ze is just talking about something at the border. Besides, I've heard from my brothers that the goods at the border sometimes don't even pass over the ground, but float on the water. Did someone's fleet accidentally miss a point?"

Xi Mihua and Kanta looked at Lu Dongpi at the same time, their eyes filled with three parts of helplessness and seven parts of regret.

"Brother Beer, what you said reminds me." Kanta said with a hint of sarcasm, "My fleet has lost cargo several times recently. I don't know if it's because your brothers in the East District robbed too much."

"Who did you say stole the goods?" Chen Bing stood up angrily and pointed at Kanta's nose. "Kanta, watch your mouth! We in the East District make a living by our own abilities. When have we ever stolen your things?"

"Chen Bing, don't get excited." Kanta sneered, "I'm just telling the truth. You're reacting so strongly, are you feeling guilty?"

Seeing that the situation was about to escalate again, Su Hanze raised his hand slowly and waved it gently: "You two, I'm here tonight to solve the problem, not to watch you quarrel. How about I help you check the problem with the goods?"

Xi Mihua and Kanta frowned at the same time, with a hint of vigilance and temptation in their eyes.

"Brother Ze, what do you mean by this?" Xi Mihua asked.

"It's very simple." Su Hanze smiled slightly. "Both of you should send someone to cooperate with me. I promise to find out the real problem of the cargo flow within a week. If it is found out, whoever is responsible will be held accountable."

"Brother Ze's proposal sounds fair, but..." Kanta deliberately prolonged his tone, "Brother Ze, don't blame us for falling out if the results are wrong."

"I never play fake games." Su Hanze said calmly and confidently, "Since this game has begun, I will definitely make sure it has a fair ending."
