Hong Kong Storm: The King of Jobs

Chapter 364, Section 141: The Big Roundup
Aunt Zhuang was still chewing her gum, her bright eyes scanning her surroundings.

This fishing boat has been modified to be a sightseeing boat specifically for anglers to go out to sea for fishing. After all, a yacht trip would cost HK$8,000, but this kind of modified sightseeing fishing boat costs only HK$200 per seat, making it cheap and winning by volume.

These modified sightseeing fishing boats are even like fish rafts, with kitchens to process the anglers' catch. Of course, the anglers often come back empty-handed, so the boat owners need to cast their nets to catch fish so that everyone can have lunch.

Mingming stood in front of Aunt Zhuang, coughed lightly, took out a cigarette case from his handbag, and lit one for himself.

They've been friends for a long time, so of course they knew the information in that cough. Sister Zhuang reached into her handbag, turned on the locator, took out a piece of chewing gum from her mouth, and stuck it onto the locator.

Once everything was ready, she crouched down, pretending to adjust her high heels, and secretly pressed the locator into the gap in the ship's deck.

"Go into the cabin, go into the cabin, don't block the way. There's some herbal tea prepared inside. Before you go to the island, chew some gum. If you offend the owners, you can forget about earning tips."

The guy with the legs standing on the deck told the girls on the deck not to block the way and to all roll into the cabin.

It's December now, and nobody likes standing on the deck feeling the sea breeze, so the girls from Malan go into the cabin in groups of three or five.

Peach Blossom Girl followed behind the main group and was the first to enter the cabin. After installing the locator, Sister Zhuang did not stand up. Instead, she secretly moved a few steps, sat on the deck, and adjusted her high heels.

"Holy crap! Are you kidding me? You messed up at the crucial moment, stop this now!"

Mingming pretended to be dissatisfied, spoke in Cantonese with a Chaoshan accent, then squatted down and reached out to help Aunt Zhuang fix her shabby high heels.

"If you want to do it, go inside the cabin. There are chairs there. Don't block the way. Pick that star!"

When Leg Bro saw that Ma Lan Mei was blocking his way and didn't take his words seriously, he got angry and cursed a couple of times, telling the two bastards in front of him to get into the cabin.

"Why are you being so fierce!"

She retorted, but seeing Brother Leg's fierce look, she shrank back and helped Sister Zhuang into the cabin.

After everyone had gone into the cabin, Leg Bro glanced back at Tseung Kwan O, which was getting further and further away, chuckled smugly, then closed the door and went into the cabin.

"We have milk tea here, freshly made, one cup per person, and pineapple buns, one per person as well."

"Let me tell you, once you get ashore, there won't be time to eat. The bosses are all impatient. They've spent money to go out partying, and everyone wants to be the first one out. If your bodies can't handle it, don't blame me for not warning you girls from Malan."

On the table inside the cabin were sealed bottles of milk tea and steaming, freshly baked pineapple buns.

After giving his instructions, Leg Bro took the lead, picked up a cup of milk tea and a pineapple bun, walked out of the cabin, crossed the corridor, and went into the captain's cabin to chat with the captain.

The girls from Malan, who had worked all night, were all hungry. They all stood up, went to the food trays, picked up the free morning tea, and ate a pineapple bun and a milk tea at the same time.

Peach Blossom Girl, who was sitting in a chair smoking, keenly sensed that Leg Bro, who had brought her and the other girls from Malan onto the ship, was secretly watching them from the captain's cabin. She immediately realized that there was something wrong with the milk tea and pineapple buns.

She threw the cigarette butt on the ground, stomped it out with the sole of her shoe, stood up, walked to the dining table, picked up a cup of Hong Kong-style milk tea and a pineapple bun, returned to her seat, and pretended to drink it.

"Damn! This is so fake. If someone's watching, you should act properly. Eat half, drink half, and put the rest in your handbag and throw it in the toilet."

Sitting to the side, Aunt Zhuang had her feet on the chair, showing no ladylike demeanor whatsoever, and was eating the pineapple bun in her hand with gusto. Not only was she eating, but she also drank all the milk tea in her hand.

There's clearly something wrong with these milk tea and pineapple buns; Sister Zhuang is an experienced informant, she couldn't possibly not see it.

Seeing Tao Hua Mei's puzzled expression, Mingming immediately whispered, "Don't learn from Sister Zhuang. Anyone who does will die. This bastard has a metabolism that's three times faster than normal. You eat three meals a day, but Sister Zhuang eats six."

"It's not just the upper body that eats; the lower body eats even more. Before Zhuang Lao got married, he was broad-shouldered and burly, standing at 1.8 meters tall, with an imposing presence. But after marrying Zhuang Sao, he is now pale and thin, as thin as a stick!"

A middle-aged woman making lewd jokes—not to mention a young woman like Peach Blossom Girl, even two greasy, lewd middle-aged men couldn't resist.

Peach Blossom Girl also gave up. She took a bite of the pineapple bun, and then, when the others weren't looking, spat it into her palm and put it into her handbag.

Even so, her double eyelids grew heavier and heavier, and through her blurred vision, she saw several girls from the northern part of the village who could no longer hold on and collapsed to the ground.

Aunt Zhuang was still drinking her milk tea when she saw Mingming and Peach Blossom Girl had already fallen to the ground, so she reluctantly lay down on the ground as well.

Leg Bro walked out of the captain's cabin, glanced at the time on his wrist, and thought, "These stinky old women, they've been chattering away, giving me a headache. Now, they're all quiet."

Several crew members came in and gestured in sign language to Leg Brother, waiting for his next command.

[Do this: strip them naked, leaving only their underwear, clothes, shoes, and handbags; throw them all into the sea.]

Leg Brother gestured with his hands to get the deaf and mute crew members to do things.

The crew rushed in and, as before, stripped all the women of Malan naked. They first searched the women for all their money and put it aside, then threw their clothes, bags, and shoes out of the cabin windows into the sea.

After stripping them naked, the crew used duct tape to bind the mouths, hands, and feet of the women from Malan.

After drinking the professor's potent sleeping potion, even an elephant would sleep for several hours.

Leg Brother sat in a chair, smoking and crossing his legs, watching the deaf and mute crew members do their work.

After the clothes were taken care of, the crew carried out bamboo baskets from outside. They put the girls into the baskets and tied them together with wire.

Nine girls from Malan were turned into geese waiting to be slaughtered in a basket in less than an hour after boarding the boat.

It would be best to just sleep it off like this, so you don't have to suffer twice!

Seeing that the crew had finished their work, Brother Leg stood up from his seat. Without looking at the banknotes on the ground, he gestured a few times and told the crew to divide the money among themselves.

The deaf-mute crew members immediately scrambled for the banknotes on the ground. One of the tallest and oldest boys stepped forward, grabbed all the banknotes from everyone's hands, counted them, and divided the money equally among the people.

Leg Bro ignored the unfortunate crew members. He simply stepped out of the cabin, stood on the deck, and continued to gaze at the sea. The sightseeing fishing boat was now moving at full speed, and in less than two hours, it would be back on the island. This was the last shipment of the year; there was a huge pile of unsold pork on the island.

The professor has already said that once this batch of pork is delivered to the family, everyone will take their annual leave and go back to Hong Kong for the New Year.

Guo Guohao and others also boarded the marine police's destroyer and are using their radar positioning system to search for targets.

The destroyer was more than twice as fast as the fishing boat, so it had to leave the coastline and sail in an area ten nautical miles away from the shore.

Helicopters were also parked on the destroyer's helipad, ready to take off immediately and drop a whole squadron of Flying Tigers as soon as the target reached the island.

Guo Guohao's eyelids twitched, and he was restless. He stood on the deck, looking at the turbulent sea, wondering if he had overlooked anything.

"Guo sir, three signal sources have been lost. It should be because the locator was thrown into the water and the battery short-circuited."

Lan Xin walked over to Guo Guohao and updated him on the real-time situation.

Hearing that only three signal sources had been lost, Guo Guohao breathed a sigh of relief. At least one signal source was still working, and the target had not been lost.

This is the vast ocean. If the signal source is lost, finding it again will be like looking for a needle in a haystack. Even if we know the direction the sightseeing fishing boats are sailing and send out helicopters to search, it will still be difficult to find them.

These sightseeing fishing boats are small and can easily hide in the reefs. Once the radio is turned off, they can be completely disappeared.

"Blue Sir, I'm starting to regret it. I should have caught them on the shore and tried to get them to talk."

"Once we got to the sea, we became completely blind!"

On shore, with the support of the intelligence department and the criminal intelligence department, tens of thousands of men can be mobilized at a moment's notice, and they can attack whomever they want. Even the large-scale number gang has to bow their heads and admit their mistakes.

But once they reached the open sea, the balance of power shifted, and no one knew how many henchmen the professor had kept on the island.

Guo Guohao was a little regretful, because now it was easy to return empty-handed and end up with nothing.

"There's no going back in this world. On the bright side, the tourist fishing boats will definitely come to the island. Once we find out the professor's hideout, we can take them all down in one fell swoop."

To be honest, Lan Xin was also very worried about whether this operation would succeed. However, the professor had been active in Hong Kong for many years, selling tens of tons of pork to Hong Kong every year, not to mention using Hong Kong as a transit point to export goods to other Asian countries.

Blue blood has a high purity, and fellow cultivators all like this high-end stuff.

Taking down a professor, even if it's just destroying his entire base, is an inspiring victory.

Once the professor's golden image is shattered, his failed partners will begin to doubt his ability to manipulate the market.

The collapse of criminal groups is invariably due to internal strife.

Just as Guo Guohao and Lan Xin were comforting each other, a female detective in a white marine police uniform walked out of the command room, quickly walked up to the two men, and saluted: "Officers, we just received a telegram, here are the details."

Guo Guohao took the telegram from the female marine police officer and read it. The information on the telegram was very simple, only a dozen or so words long.

The arrest operation has begun; boxing champion Sheng has already left his cell.

After reading the telegram, Guo Guohao handed it to Lan Xin beside him for him to read, while he turned his head to look at the Hong Kong boy behind him.

The weather on Kowloon Island is great today; the dark clouds that had been hanging over it for days have been blown away by the sea breeze.

But this had nothing to do with the boxing champion Sheng, because he was detained for a full forty-eight hours without bail. When the time was up, the cops couldn't find any new dirt on him, so they released him.

Following behind the lawyer, he walked out of the Mong Kok Police Station. The sunlight was so bright that he raised his hand to shield his eyebrows, giving himself time to adjust.

Zombie Bao, standing across the street, saw that King Sheng had come out unharmed. He spat on the ground with glee, cursed inwardly, and then put on a fawning smile like a bastard. He quickly walked up to King Sheng and offered his sunglasses with both hands.

"Brother Sheng, you've finally come out! A lot of people have been asking about you lately. I told those bastards to relax. Brother Sheng, you're a lucky man, and I guarantee you'll turn bad luck into good."

Listening to Zombie Bao's nauseating flattery, Boxing King Sheng snorted coldly, snatched the sunglasses from the scumbag's hand, wiped them with Zombie Bao's clothes, and said with a sneer, "I know who the good brother is and who is here to take advantage."

"Baozi, you're a good boy, you even knew to come pick me up. I'll buy you a commendation certificate later, after all, you're the best boy!"

After wiping his sunglasses clean, Boxing King Sheng put the zombie-themed sunglasses on his nose and looked at the lawyer beside him.

The lawyer knew what the boxing champion meant, reached into his pocket, and handed his car keys to his employer: "Mr. Yin, the luggage is in the trunk!"

Boxing King Sheng took the key, nodded, looked at the zombie bag, and said softly, "You go pick up Ah Bin first, I need to go to Lao Ding."

After saying that, without giving Zombie Bao a chance to speak, Boxing King Sheng got into the lawyer's car and drove away.

The dog, who had been secretly keeping watch, quickly started his car and quietly followed behind, picking up a walkie-talkie in one hand: "The fly has regained its freedom and should go find some fresh dung."

"Brother A, you can make your move now!"

"Roger that! I'm catching the other two flies now."

A-zai answered, hung the walkie-talkie back on the radio, and waved his hand, signaling the team members behind him to take action.

The entire Kwai Tsing Building has been sealed off, all exits have been blocked, and there are uniformed guards. Not even a fly can get out, let alone a person.

“Brother A, it’s confirmed. That scoundrel Tatsa entered the Kwai Tsing Building early this morning and is hiding in his film company. Tatsa’s good-for-nothing little brother, Peanut, is also up there.”

A-Zai's top lieutenant, the three-man gangster with ten years of experience in solving cases, spent the entire night watching over Tatsa, filming the whole distribution process. They stayed at the Kwai Tsing Building, taking turns even to relieve themselves there.
