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

Chapter 240 Everything is turned upside down
Young Master Jin was so frightened that his face turned pale, but he still managed to say, "Su Hanze, how dare you touch me? Do you know who I am?"

"I don't care who you are." Su Hanze increased his strength and whispered, "But you have to remember that I, Su Hanze, am not someone who can be stepped on casually."

"Stop!" The bodyguard behind Jin Shao finally reacted and rushed over to attack. Su Hanze was quick-witted and picked up the wine bottle on the table and threw it at one of them. The mouth of the bottle hit the other person's forehead, and blood immediately gushed out.

The room was in chaos. The remaining bodyguards dared not act rashly and could only stare at Su Hanze nervously. Jin Shao's face turned pale and he finally couldn't hold it anymore. He shouted in panic: "Let go! I'll tell you! I'll tell you!"

"Why didn't you just say it earlier?" Su Hanze snorted coldly, threw him back on the sofa, crossed his arms and looked at him coldly.

Young Master Jin took a few breaths and said in a trembling voice, "This batch of goods... was left behind by the northerners. My people don't know if they have tampered with it!"

"Northerner?" Su Hanze's eyes flickered. "Who told you? Who handled the goods?"

Young Master Jin swallowed his saliva, hesitated for a moment, and whispered, "He's from Ludong Beer. His people recommended the goods to me, and I just took it because I thought I could make some extra money."

"Lu Dongbi." Su Hanze's voice was cold as he turned and walked out. When he reached the door, he stopped and turned back to Jin Shao and said, "Remember this. I'll keep the account for this time. If you dare to play tricks again next time, I'll make you lie in the hospital and eat liquid food."

Young Master Jin slumped on the sofa, his face looking as ugly as an eggplant hit by frost. Xiao Tan stood aside and couldn't help but say, "Young Master, you've gone too far this time, haven't you? Su Hanze is not someone you can easily mess with."

"Shut up!" Jin Shao roared angrily, but found that he didn't even have the energy to curse.

After Su Hanze left the nightclub, he led his men directly to Lu Dongpi's place. The mahjong hall in Mong Kok was brightly lit. Lu Dongpi was leisurely shuffling his cards. When he saw Su Hanze kicking the door open, his eyes changed slightly, but he soon returned to smiling.

"Hey, who made Boss Su so angry?" Lu Dongpi slowly put down the mahjong tiles in his hand and looked up at him, "Don't you need to knock to enter my place?"

"You dare to adulterate your goods, and you still have the nerve to play cards here?" Su Hanze said coldly, his voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.

"The goods are adulterated? What do you mean?" Lu Dongpi pretended not to understand and raised his eyebrows. "I'm just a spectator at the dock. Whose goods do I have the right to tamper with?"

"Stop pretending." Su Hanze sneered, "Young Master Jin has already betrayed you, do you think you can get away with it?"

Lu Dongpi stared at Su Hanze for a few seconds, then suddenly smiled: "Su Hanze, I'll give you a piece of advice. The world of Jianghu is not something that one person can handle. If you can't drink the water in Xiwan, spit it out as soon as possible."

"Then you try it." Su Hanze threw down these words, turned around and left, but there was an indescribable heaviness in his eyes.

The wind at the dock was colder than usual, and the fishy and salty smell coming from the sea mixed with a faint smell of diesel made people feel suffocated.

Su Hanze came out of the mahjong parlor in Mong Kok. The neon lights on the roadside flickered on his face, lengthening the shadow behind him.

His face showed no emotion, but every step he took was filled with a gloomy aura. He had attacked Lu Dongpi's place tonight, but he didn't get anything substantial. Lu Dongpi was an old fox, and he kept on saying "I don't know", as slippery as a loach in a frying pan.

A shabby van stopped by the roadside. As soon as the door opened, Ah Liu poked his head out, a look of nervousness on his face: "Boss Su, something is not right outside. I just received news that several warehouses in Xiwan were set on fire."

Su Hanze's face froze, he looked up suddenly, and his voice was as cold as ice: "Who did it?"

"It's not clear yet, but someone saw that it was the remaining brothers from the north who took action. They rushed in with gasoline barrels, and the fire has not been put out yet." Ah Liu's voice trembled a little.

"Northerners?" Su Hanze repeated in a low voice, his brows knitted into a "川" shape, his fingers rubbing the string of Buddhist beads in his trouser pockets. He had long expected that the wind in Xiwan would not stop so quickly, but he did not expect that the northerners would dare to light a fire at this time.

"The car is ready, let's go back to the dock." He opened the car door and got in, his eyes revealing a hint of murderous intent.

The van sped along, passing through one brightly lit street after another, heading straight for Xiwan. Before the car reached the dock, Su Hanze had already seen flames rising to the sky in the distance, black smoke rolling up into the sky, and the flames reflected half of the sea surface red, like an angry dragon. His face became darker and darker, and two words popped up in his mind: trouble.

The dock was in chaos, with workers running around, some shouting "fire" and others carrying buckets to throw water into the fire. The shrill sound of sirens could be heard from afar, and the whole scene was in chaos. Su Hanze kicked open the car door and walked straight towards the fire. The firelight reflected on his face, and his eyes were terribly gloomy.

"Who set the fire here!" Su Hanze shouted at the busy crowd.

"Boss Su! It was done by people from the north! I just saw a few familiar faces slipping away. They came quickly and left even faster." A worker rushed over, wiping the dust off his face, and said breathlessly.

"Damn, northerners are really crazy." Ah Liu cursed and punched the container next to him.

"A Liu, take some people to put out the fire, don't let the goods burn any more." Su Hanze gritted his teeth and ordered, then quickly walked towards a warehouse that was not on fire. As soon as he entered the door, he saw several boxes of goods that had not been moved away scattered on the ground, and several brothers were dragging boxes out.

"Boss Su, this place is about to catch fire!" a worker shouted anxiously.

"Take all these away! As for the other things, save as much as you can!" Su Hanze gritted his teeth. If this batch of goods was burned, not only would he have to pay a huge loss, but Xiwan's reputation would also be ruined.

Just as he waved his hand to call for action, there was a sudden noisy sound outside the warehouse, followed by several flashlights shining straight in, onto the cargo boxes and on people's faces.

"Police! Don't move!" A leading police officer shouted with a loud speaker. Several policemen behind him had already rushed in, holding batons and flashlights, and headed straight for Su Hanze and his group.

Su Hanze was stunned for a moment, then his face turned pale: "Why did the police come so quickly!"

"The fire is so big, how can we hide it?" Ah Liu was panicking, "Boss Su, what should we do?"

"Take your men out first and throw away the goods in your hands." Su Hanze lowered his voice, his eyes sharp, "I'll take care of the rest."

The police had already rushed in and several workers were pushed to the ground. The boxes in their hands fell to the ground with a clang. The lids of the boxes opened, revealing the fake goods inside.

"What is this? Industrial alcohol?!" The leading police officer glanced at the box, his face suddenly turned cold, and he raised his hand and pointed at Su Hanze, "Are you the person in charge here? Come back to the bureau with us!" Su Hanze's face was calm, and he raised his hand pretending to be calm: "I am Su Hanze, the person in charge of Xiwan Wharf. I don't know the situation here. Someone deliberately set fire to my place."

"Intentionally? Did the fire fall on you? You can't even explain this batch of goods clearly?" The police officer sneered and waved his hand to ask someone to take Su Hanze to the car.

Two hours later, the fire in Xiwan was under control, but the ruins and scattered fake goods left at the scene were still shocking. The police blocked most of the dock area, and the workers dared not speak out, and could only sigh in the dark. A few spies from a small gang stood in the distance, watching the chaotic scene at the dock, and whispered: "Something happened in Xiwan this time, Su Hanze might be in trouble."

"Who allowed him to step on everyone's faces to get to the top? Sooner or later, the situation in Xiwan will go wrong."

In the interrogation room of the police station, Su Hanze's hands were handcuffed on a chair, his face was gloomy, and the veins on his forehead were throbbing slightly. The police officer opposite him lit a cigarette and squinted at him: "Boss Su, who does this batch of fake goods belong to? Tell me clearly, so as not to suffer a big loss."

"I've already said that there's something wrong with my goods. I'll check it myself." Su Hanze said coldly, "This time, someone deliberately framed me."

"Framed?" The police officer sneered and flicked the ash on the table. "Everyone says they are innocent when they are arrested. Do you think I will believe it? The incident in Xiwan has caused such a big fuss, and you still want to distance yourself from it?"

"Do you have any evidence?" Su Hanze raised his head and asked back with sharp eyes.

The police officer stared at him for a moment, then suddenly sneered, "Don't be complacent. We have enough reason to detain you for 72 hours. Just wait and see what happens next."

The door of the interrogation room was closed, Su Hanze leaned back in his chair, but he felt like he was stabbed in the heart. The situation was completely messed up this time, whether it was the northerner's anger or Jin Shao and Lu Dongpi's secret disruption, they all made him the easiest person to be pushed out to take the blame in front of the police.

Three days is not a long time, but it is enough for the situation outside to change drastically.

At Xiwan Wharf, Ah Liu and the rest of the people stood outside the warehouse, looking at the blocked entrance, and couldn't help but punch the wall: "Damn it! Who set the fire? Boss Su is still in the police station, what should we do?"

"What else can we do? The boss is not here, and Xiwan's stall will be snatched away at any time!" A worker said with a frown, "Young Master Jin and the people from Ludong Beer are watching this place now. How long can we hold out?"

"We have to defend it even if we can't!" Ah Liu said fiercely, "No matter who it is, don't think of taking advantage this time."

At the same time, in the mahjong parlor in Mong Kok, Lu Dongpi sat in the main seat, listening to his subordinates' reports, and smiled from ear to ear: "I told you, the water in Sai Wan is too deep, Su Hanze will fall in too. This time, it won't be so easy for him to turn over."

"Brother Pi, Young Master Jin is also making moves. I heard that he has sent people to negotiate cooperation with the remaining small gangs, and plans to take over part of Xiwan's territory while the chaos is going on."

“He is Young Master Jin?” Lu Dongpi smiled and shook his head. “Let him make trouble. Everyone wants to take a bite at this time, but the one who can swallow it in the end is the one who laughs last.”

In the cold room of the police station, Su Hanze closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair, but his mind was racing. He knew that no one could predict what Xiwan would look like when he came out in three days.

But he also understood that in this chaotic situation, he had to find a way to fight back.

The chaos at Xiwan Wharf has subsided, but the charred ground still emits a burning smell. Yellow lines have been drawn around the warehouse, and the police are still walking around. Many workers are squatting in the corners, looking confused.

This sudden fire created a big hole in the place that Su Hanze had worked so hard to defend. Ah Liu stood aside, looking at the remaining brothers, pacing back and forth anxiously.

"If this continues, we won't be able to hold on to this place in Xiwan." A thin worker squatted on the ground and said with his head down, "The boss is being held by the police, and we can't hold on. Jin Shao and Lu Dongpi have already spread the word that they are coming to take over."

"Take over?" Ah Liu cursed angrily and kicked over the wooden box next to him. "If they dare to come over here, I'll show them what a tough guy is!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a noise at the entrance of the alley. A dozen people came towards this side with weapons in a menacing manner. The leader was Jin Shao's younger brother Xiao Tan, who was holding a steel pipe in his hand and had a playful smile on his face.

"Hey, Ah Liu, it seems like no one is watching over Xiwan?" Xiao Tan stood at the entrance of the alley, glanced around, and deliberately raised his voice, "Your boss Su has gone in, what are you still guarding? Be smart and get out of here as soon as possible, and Master Jin will give you some food."

"Get lost!" Ah Liu picked up a wrench, pointed at them and cursed, "Xiwan is our boss Su's territory, how dare you losers come here to take advantage of us?"

“Oh, they’re pretty arrogant.” Xiao Tan sneered and waved his hand behind him, “Brothers, knock them down!”

A dozen people rushed forward, and Ah Liu's face changed. He shouted, "Brothers, grab your weapons!"

The scene suddenly became a mess, with steel pipes, wooden sticks, and wrenches flying everywhere, and the sound of shouting and killing echoed throughout the alley. Ah Liu and his men fought desperately, but they were outnumbered and were quickly suppressed by Jin Shao's men.

"Let go! Damn it, if you have the guts, wait for Boss Su to come back and see who has the last laugh!" Ah Liu struggled and was pinned to the ground, with blood at the corner of his mouth, but his eyes were fixed on Xiao Tan.

Xiao Tan squatted down, smiled and patted his face: "Wait for him to come back? If he could come back, Xiwan would no longer be called Su. Listen, Xiwan Wharf will be under the protection of our Young Master Jin from now on, you better not make trouble."

"Pah!" Ah Liu spat out a mouthful of blood and phlegm, his eyes full of hatred.

Xiao Tan stood up and waved his hand: "Kick them all out. We will take over the goods in Xiwan."

In the mahjong parlor in Mong Kok, Lu Dongpi was leisurely shuffling the cards, listening to the reports from his men, his smile becoming more and more proud.

"Young Master Jin is quite quick. He took over the outer area of ​​Xiwan overnight." Lu Dongpi laughed while playing cards. "However, how long can he hold on to this place?"

"Brother Beer, why don't you take this opportunity to pick up some benefits?" The younger brother with black-framed glasses came over and asked in a low voice.

"What's the hurry?" Lu Dongpi glanced at him and threw the cards in his hand on the table. "Aren't we asking for trouble if we act now? That kid Jin Shao won't be able to stay alive for many days. When the police investigate further, Xiwan will be blamed on him."

"But if Su Hanze can't turn things around, no matter how much Young Master Jin makes trouble, Xiwan will fall into his hands."
