(Thank you to the boy who loves reading historical novels for your support! Thank you for your continued support! May you have a long and successful career, full of youthful vigor and unwavering strength! Wishing you joy every night!)

"Of course we should take action!"

"Otherwise, what are we doing in Tsim Sha Tsui? Eating seafood! This time, after we've won over the boxing champion Sheng, I'll host a few tables and treat everyone to lobster!"

"Follow me to arrest them!"

Ding Gou snapped his fingers, signaling his men to seal off all the exits, while he led his men upstairs to arrest the person.

The uniformed soldiers had already secured the elevators, and two PTU (Police Tactical Unit) uniformed soldiers carrying lion-nose slings were stationed in the stairwells from the fifth to the ninth floor, ensuring that there was absolutely no chance of anything going wrong.

Ding Gou, along with Hua Yaozi and two others, took the elevator to the eighth floor. As soon as the elevator doors opened, they saw two technicians using tools to pry open the door.

The small tool was inserted into the keyhole, and after fiddling with it a few times, a crisp sound was heard.

The dog with the lion's nose safety pin already off carefully entered the apartment, with Flower Waist Boy following behind, providing cover for the dog.

At the very back were the PTU mobile unit uniforms who should have been at the forefront. One person quickly squeezed through, raised his bulletproof shield, and his comrades behind him raised their shotguns, and they moved forward step by step.

The sound of running water came from the bathroom, and the boxing champion Sheng's jacket was thrown on the sofa.

Ding Gou gestured to the men who followed him in, indicating that the target was in the restroom and that everyone should be on alert.

"Ring ring ring"

The landline suddenly rang, drawing everyone's attention.

As the temporary commander, Ding Gou put his finger to his lips, signaling everyone to be quiet, and led the way back to clear the line of sight.

The sound of running water in the bathroom stopped, and the naked boxing champion Sheng walked out of the bathroom, but as soon as he appeared in the living room, he was tackled to the ground.

“Boxing champion Sheng, I suspect you are involved in a drug trafficking case. Please come back with me to assist in the investigation.”

"It's not necessary for you to speak now. You have the right to remain silent, but what you say can be used against you in court!"

He engaged the safety on the lion-nose gun, tucked it into its holster, and then reached out and threw the boxing champion's jacket at the scumbag's head.

"This is a search warrant issued by the Chief Executive. We are now going to search your apartment."

When Ding Gou saw that Quan Wang Sheng had raised his head, he took out the search warrant issued by the Chief Master, waved it in front of Quan Wang Sheng to complete the procedure, and then had the guys from the technical department start opening the safe.

This is a complete disaster!
It seems the cops released themselves to lure out the snakes, hoping they would expose their own secrets!
Boxing champion Sheng let out a wail in his heart, his face ashen, and he remained silent as he watched the technical staff inventory his safe. He knew that this time he was completely finished!

Seeing the defeated general lying on the ground, Ding Gou sneered. He wasn't gay and didn't want to see the wrecked body. He walked out of the apartment and let the forensic team in to count, register, move, and take photos.

These seven or eight safes must contain many secrets, and this time they should be able to bring many people to justice.

He pulled the boy aside and whispered, "Go and inform Inspector Guo that everything is settled."

Flower Waist Boy quickly nodded, made an OK sign, took the elevator downstairs, and went to use the car radio to notify Inspector Guo.

The mission was accomplished. Ding Gou took out a cigarette, put it in his mouth, looked out the window, and silently wondered how Peach Blossom Girl was doing.

If Peach Blossom knew that her team leader still cared about her, she would definitely be very touched, because her current situation is a bit bad.

The bamboo basket wasn't big, and people could only huddle inside it. Although their hands and feet weren't tied up, all their clothes had been stripped off, leaving them only in their underwear. The sea breeze howled, blowing directly onto their skin, leaving it bruised and purple.

Before going out, she checked the weather forecast. Today, the temperature in Aberdeen, Kowloon Island, and the New Territories was only twelve degrees Celsius. It would be even colder at sea due to the sea breeze, possibly even below zero.

Peach Blossom Girl shivered and curled up into a ball, hoping that her body could provide some warmth.

"Damn it! Don't move!"

A very soft voice came from the side; it was so quiet you wouldn't hear it if you weren't paying attention.

Peach Blossom opened one eye and looked toward the source of the sound, only to find that Aunt Zhuang had also woken up and was winking at her.

"Don't move, just hold on a little longer, we should be on shore soon!"

Seeing that no one was watching, Sister Zhuang whispered.

Peach Blossom Girl quickly nodded, then closed her eyes, using the warmth of her body to withstand the sea breeze.

"Damn it! Some are handcuffed, some aren't. These mute guys are unreliable!"

With a cigarette dangling from his mouth, Brother Leg walked to the ship's side, looked at the nine bamboo baskets on the deck, and frowned as he cursed.

But despite his cursing, he was unwilling to reopen the bamboo basket and tie the hands and feet of each person. They were all dying people, and touching them would only bring more bad luck, which he didn't want to do.

We're almost at the shore; all we need to do is unload the cargo.

With that in mind, Legs went into the captain's cabin and said to the bearded captain who was steering the ship, "Be at the shore at 10 a.m. sharp tomorrow morning. We have cargo to transport out."

"This is the travel money for this trip!"

After saying that, he took out a small stack of large gold bulls from his pocket and placed them on the dashboard. According to the rules of the underworld, payment was made on a per-transaction basis, with no debts owed.

The bearded captain reached out and picked up the small stack of large gold bulls. He pinched them between two fingers and knew exactly how much it was. He coughed and said, "Legs, the toll is going to go up. What you've done is too heinous. If the Dragon King knew, he definitely wouldn't protect me."

"100,000 per time. If it's less than that, come to me for drinking and womanizing. Don't even mention shipping goods by sea. I've ruined my brain from drinking too much, I don't remember any of our previous collaborations!"

This small stack of banknotes was worth at most 50,000 yuan. If it were a normal shipment of goods overseas, he would even be willing to lower the price by half to maintain the relationship. But the goods that the leg-man wanted to transport were too unethical. If the money wasn't in place, he would rather not do it.

"One hundred thousand! That's fine. Since you've asked for the price, Captain, I absolutely won't haggle."

"With several trips a month, plus the coastal route, there shouldn't be any problems."

The shipping cost of 100,000 yuan is not a big deal. Brother Tui can decide for himself. That's how business is. Do what you know, not what you don't. For this kind of job that could cost you your life, it's best to use people you know.

"Great! I recently caught a basket of three-eyed crabs. They weren't soaked in chili oil, so they're top-quality. Take them home and cook them. You can stir-fry them with scallions, ginger, and garlic, or make them in a typhoon shelter style. I guarantee they'll be incredibly delicious."

Seeing that Leg Bro readily agreed, the bearded captain also gave him a small gift. In this kind of relationship, it's about giving and receiving, and that's how friendships last.

Human relationships are like painting. You paint one layer on the wall, I paint another layer on top of that, and when everyone can no longer bear the sunk costs, the friendship will be passed on to the next generation.

"Thank you, Brother Beard!" "I'll be there at ten o'clock tomorrow. My boss doesn't like people who aren't punctual."

Leg Bro took the cigarette butt out of his mouth, flicked it with his hand, and it flew directly into the sea. It was time to get ashore; he had things to do!
Hu Zi sounded the ship's horn and turned the rudder to the left, trying to get as close to the shore as possible. But he had to be careful not to get too close to the beach, or the ship would run aground and he would have to wait for the tide to come in to get out of trouble.

As Leg Bro walked out of the captain's cabin, he stopped a mute boy and gestured for him to bring out his secret weapon.

The mute boy nodded quickly and ran to the warehouse, where he soon retrieved the rope-launching gun.

After fiddling with the rope-launching gun and finding that the propellant was intact, Leg Brother was relieved. Looking at the island that was becoming clearer in front of him, he smiled happily.

My good brothers are all on the island. The boat captain with the beard gave me a basket of three-eyed crabs. I can't make it in the typhoon shelter style because I lack the ingredients, but I have plenty of scallions, ginger and garlic in the mud box. Stir-fry the three-eyed crabs with scallions, ginger and garlic and they'll be delicious. It's just the right amount of time to have a drink with them.

I raised my hand, looked at the gold Rolex on my wrist, and found that the time was just right, even ten minutes ahead of schedule.

He took a firecracker out of his pocket, placed it on the gunwale, and lit it with a lighter.

The fuse of the firecracker burned out quickly, and with a loud explosion, the firecracker shot into the sky, then exploded into a dazzling firework in mid-air.

The signal has been sent, and my brothers should be showing up soon!

As the saying goes, "A single arrow piercing the clouds can summon a thousand armies to meet you!"

Leg Bro looked at the fireworks blooming in the sky and smiled from the bottom of his heart.

Just as the guy with the legs had expected, five minutes after the fireworks went off, three or five men appeared by the flagpole on the coastline, waving at the boat.

The brothers are here!
The man with the leg put his hand in his mouth and blew hard, the whistle echoing across the entire sea.

"call"

The men near the flagpole also gave a loud whistle in response.

"call out"

Leg Bro aimed the rope launcher at the vicinity of the flagpole and decisively pulled the trigger. Propelled by the black powder, the rope flew towards the island.

This rope launcher was specially made by the professor. The steel cable is only three kilometers long, so the distance needs to be measured carefully for each launch. If the distance is not enough, the plane will be too big, and it will have to be carried down one bamboo basket at a time.

Leg Bro, who does this often, is quite accurate; the semi-solid steel ball at the end of the rope landed precisely near the flagpole made of iron pipe.

The men near the flagpole quickly secured the steel cable to the flagpole and then waved the small red flags in their hands.

Seeing his good brothers' affirmative reply, Leg Brother took down the steel cable and hung it on the small crane on the sightseeing fishing boat. After securing it, he let the mute boys tie the nine bamboo baskets together with ropes.

All of this was done under the watchful eyes of Peach Blossom Girl, Mingming, and Aunt Zhuang. They witnessed everything, but they didn't say a word. Instead, they silently recorded the island's physical characteristics.

Today's mission is truly a death sentence!
There were just too many people on the island; the men near the flagpole alone were enough to keep the three of them busy.

Sister Zhuang sighed inwardly. She thought that if they could escape, they would do their best. If they couldn't escape, they would have no choice but to go to the underworld with these northern girls and sell salted duck eggs.

She had already guessed the ending before accepting the mission. Since she had already guessed the ending, why should she regret it?

Bamboo baskets were hung on steel cables, and due to the height difference and the pulleys, the baskets were quickly swung to the shore.

The girls from Beigu Malan inside the bamboo baskets were still asleep, unaware that they were one step closer to death.

Peach Blossom Girl, who was suspended by a steel cable, suddenly thought of the first time she rode a roller coaster when she was a child. She never expected that the steel cable and pulley would have such a similar effect.

In just half a minute, taking advantage of the elevation difference, he completed a 3,000-meter sprint.

The steel cable was sturdy, and the pulleys were also very strong. Two strong men caught the bamboo basket and gently placed her on the ground.

Seeing that all the bamboo baskets had been delivered, Leg Bro took off his socks and leather shoes, and put all the odds and ends, such as his pager, wallet, cigarettes, and lighter, into his backpack, along with tying the small net for the three-eyed crabs around his waist.

The boat captain with the beard was really generous this time; the three-eyed crabs in the fishing net weighed at least five or six pounds, enough for him to have a drink.

He took out a handheld pulley, hung it on the steel cable, took a few steps back, and with a boost, flew out.

The discovery of gravitational acceleration is one of the greatest discoveries of humankind.

However, Leg Bro didn't calculate his weight properly, and the roller skates stopped after he had only skated for 1,000 meters. He could only jump onto the beach as before.

The mute men on the fishing boat were untying the steel cable, while the men on the flagpole were also retracting the three-thousand-meter-long steel cable.

For the island, steel cables are a rare resource, but they are an excellent material for making protective nets and clotheslines.

However, two men ran to the beach, ignoring the fact that their pants were getting wet from the seawater, to greet the guy with the legs who had just arrived on the island.

The trousers he was wearing were high-end items that Leg Bro bought for three hundred yuan, but they were soaked by the sea, which made him a little heartbroken. However, when he saw his two good brothers walking towards him, he smiled happily and patted them hard on the shoulders.

"Da Niu, you've been clamoring to eat three-eyed crab! This time, you can eat until your stomach explodes!"

"That bastard with the beard, he finally got a chance to be generous, and you got off easy!"

Leg Bro took the three-eyed crab fishing net off his waist and handed it to his good brother Big Bull in front of him.

Hearing that there were three-eyed crabs to eat, Da Niu was very happy. He quickly took the crab, opened it, and found that the three-eyed crab was lively and jumping around. There were no red oil stains on the crab's body, which meant that it had been caught from the open sea.

"I got a bottle of whiskey, saying it was brought from my ancestral home. This time, I'm going to drink until we drop with Brother Leg!"

After Da Niu finished speaking happily, he helped Leg Brother walk ashore.

Once ashore, Leg Bro sat on the rocks, put his socks and leather shoes back on, and walked to the bamboo basket: "This time, the boss specifically instructed us to bring two more Malan girls."

"Is the vehicle ready? Take it back to the camp. Don't delay the boss's important business!"

The man with the afro looked around and, seeing that no one was saying anything, he had no choice but to say, "Brother Leg, the pickup truck on the island is broken. It's missing parts and can't be repaired."

"The boss has already ordered another one, which will arrive in ten days. This time, we'll have to push it out on a handcart!"

"We've brought over three handcarts; we can get it done in one go!"
