(Ah Xian kneels down in gratitude!)

(Ah Xian will fill in the missing part between chapters 151 and 152 tonight!)

He broke his vow by speaking out, ruining nearly ten years of perseverance and causing all his efforts to be in vain.

Professor A made a few remarks, then fell silent.

"Present joy is not true joy; danger is not true danger; safety is not true safety. Why cut off flesh to create a wound? It is better to stick to the old ways and be safe."

Chi Mengli also sighed, "Even the most arrogant bookmaker will eventually come to an end. When you become world-famous, it's the beginning of your demise."

Black Widow, Pablo, Khun Sa, and others were no exception; the difference was whether they died of old age in their beds or died violently in the streets.

Very few bookmakers die of old age in their beds, but most die violently in the streets. For these bookmakers, being caught by the police and living in a tightly guarded prison is the best possible end.

Xizai, who was leaning against the truck, saw that Sheng Ge had arrived, so he quickly pressed the button and opened the door. Inside the cargo box, two coffins lay side by side.

"Life and death, in the cycle of reincarnation."

"After much consideration, a coffin is the most suitable for the two of you."

With a simple gesture, Chi Mengli climbed into the cargo box, moving with the agility of a swallow. She then walked to the two exquisitely crafted coffins made of North American sandalwood, specially made for high-end talents.

Construction has already begun on their own burial plot. Within three months, the park will be fully renovated, and then all ashes and coffins can be transported in. With the idea of ​​burial for peace in mind, Chi Mengli proposed building an underground burial plot specifically to store these valuable items.

Professor A and Song Ci also climbed up. Although they didn't know who the gangster in front of them was, there were only a few outstanding gangsters in Hong Kong, so they could guess who it was.

Now we are at their mercy, like fish on a chopping board. If the couple wants to live, they have to obey.

Wearing a mask, Xizai blindfolded Professor A and Song Ci, helped them into the coffin, threw in several bottles of mineral water and compressed biscuits, and then covered them with a coffin board weighing dozens of kilograms.

"Brother Sheng, the pit is dug! Shall we set off?"

Xizi didn't see Spinach Dong. You know, Sheng Ge and Dong Ge are inseparable. But since everything was settled, he asked Sheng Ge if things were proceeding according to plan.

"I trust you to do things right. Just remember to keep the ventilation openings open, don't let these two bastards suffocate. I'm looking for buyers recently, these two big treasures are worth a lot of money!"

Chi Mengli took off her sunglasses and mask, put them in her pocket, and gestured for Xizai to drive away.

Upon hearing the order, Xizai nodded, pressed the button to raise the rear door, turned around and got into the driver's seat, heading towards Shau Kei Wan.

Seeing a coffin first thing in the morning means I'm guaranteed to make a fortune today!
After not doing any serious work for several days, Chi Mengli planned to return to Tangkou Tuodi after waiting for Bo Cai Dong to start checking the accounts.

On the surface, he's a gangster, but regardless of his various identities in the shadows, protecting Yau Ma Tei is what he should do.

The news that Ma Wangjian had sent someone to kill Boxing King Sheng has already been passed on to Guo Guohao. As for whether Guo Sir can protect Boxing King Sheng, that is none of his business.

Sweating profusely, Spinach Dong ran into the abandoned park. Seeing that Chi Mengli was alone, he was a little dejected. After a busy morning, he still managed to let Professor A escape. What an inauspicious start!

"It's getting late! Let's go to Coco Tea Restaurant. It's been a long time since I've had curry beef brisket rice. We also happen to pass by Yuanji Dessert Shop. In the middle of winter, let's buy some mistletoe and lotus seed egg tea to take back and cool everyone down."

Chi Mengli's stomach was rumbling. Since she was in Hong Kong and near the University of Hong Kong, she naturally had to eat curry beef brisket rice at Coco Tea Restaurant.

Hearing Sheng Ge talk about curry beef brisket rice, Spinach Dong was also a little hungry, so he quickly nodded, walked out of the abandoned little park, found the van parked by the roadside, and drove away.

The sniper lying on the mountaintop removed his camouflage, put away his sniper rifle, and left in the opposite direction.

When I went to the clothes, I learned the name and the name.

But the sniper's thunderous roar startled the cops inside the Tung Wah Mortuary. They quickly surrounded the backyard and handcuffed all the gangsters lying on the ground.

When they saw the gorilla lying obediently on the ground, Ding Gou and Tao Hua Mei were also at a loss. When they learned that the gorilla could not move, they could only call an ambulance. It took six caregivers working together to lift the person into the ambulance.

"Brother Dog, we're late again! We're constantly being pulled around like this, do you think we can handle it?"

Peach Blossom Girl, a cigarette dangling from her mouth, looked at the motley crew of gangsters on the ground, feeling utterly helpless. Professor A was like this, and Professor K was like this too—it was truly unbelievable!
Ding Gou wasn't too emotional about the disappointing result. Initially, from the temporary command center to the cops and robbers themselves, no one thought Professor A would show up.

After all, a lot of people have already been arrested, so Professor A certainly won't risk showing up. Leaving Hong Kong is the best option.

The police were dispatched partly to kill two birds with one stone, hoping for an unexpected surprise. They never expected Professor A to be so skilled and daring, actually showing up at the Tung Wah Coffin Home. Unbelievable!
It’s amazing!
Peach Blossom Girl didn't say a word. She had just crawled out of a bloodbath and hadn't taken a single day off. She continued to throw herself into her work, hoping to see the professor's team caught. Finding them empty-handed was not a good thing for her.

Pineapple, holding the employee file, ran to Ding Gou and Peach Blossom Girl's side and flipped the Donghua Yizhuang employee file to the front: "The person who broke in kidnapped an old employee named Lan Sheng."

"This Mr. Lan was recommended by the Relief Department. He is a mute who was born the day after tomorrow and has been working at the Tung Wah Coffin Home for ten years. But this should be a fake identity because when I sent the information back to headquarters, I found that there is indeed such a person in the identity file, but the file is blank."

“This is a fake identity, but the photo is real. I have already asked the person in charge of Donghua Coffin Home to verify it.”

"And there's some news that you're sure to be interested in, Brother Dog: this Lan Sheng's parents are also buried in Donghua Mortuary."

Pineapple recounted all the findings of his investigation, making it very clear that the mute man was Professor A.

Although they didn't find the person, knowing Professor A's face was a great achievement. They quickly took the employee file from Pineapple and looked at it carefully, and indeed found many suspicious points.

"Fall back! Send all these bastards to jail, interrogate them one by one, and send the photos to the intelligence section and the criminal intelligence section. Let them investigate. The intelligence section and the criminal intelligence section are the best at this kind of thing."

"Peach Blossom Girl, what are we going to do after we finish? How about you treat me to some morning tea?"

Ding Gou ordered everyone to retreat. The mission was complete, and there was no reason to continue. They hadn't even had breakfast yet, so finding a rich guy to pay the bill was the most important thing.

Peach Blossom Girl threw the cigarette in her hand to the ground and said with a smile, "Not today. I've arranged to meet my best friend at Coco Tea Restaurant. My best friend is a beautiful woman who has just been promoted to associate professor. She's innocent and pure, and I absolutely can't let you lecherous guys see her."

"Alright! It's about time, I'm off."

Having dim sum with colleagues is nothing compared to having dim sum with my best friend. After dim sum at Coco Tea Restaurant, we went shopping in Central and bought a few outfits.

After finishing her sentence, Peach Blossom waved goodbye and left. She went to the parking lot, started her car, and found that the dashboard was covered in cigarette ash. She should wash the car. She thought she could find a car wash while shopping at the mall and not waste time.

At six in the morning, traffic in Hong Kong wasn't too bad. She drove to Sai Wan, parked in the open-air free parking lot next to the University of Hong Kong, locked the car, and then walked with her backpack to the Coco Tea Restaurant across from the parking lot.

Even though there weren't many cars on Xiangjiangzai Road at this time of day, the tea restaurants were already packed with people.

"Beautiful ladies, how many are there?"

"Both of you!"

Peach Blossom Girl looked around and found that there were no empty seats on the first floor. Just like when she was in school, the Coco Tea Restaurant was completely full.

"Miss, there are no seats available on the first floor, but there are seats available on the second floor. Please order upstairs."

The owner gave an embarrassed smile and invited the pretty female customer upstairs.

"Okay! Boss, make a call!"

There was a self-service telephone in the Coco Tea Restaurant. Peach Blossom Girl first took out her cigarette case, put a cigarette in her mouth, lit it with a Dupont lighter, then took out a coin, put it into the self-service telephone, and called the paging service.

I heard my pager go off while I was on a mission. It's really inconvenient right now. I heard that Motorola has released a black box that can make phone calls anytime, but it weighs over ten kilograms and is a bit heavy.

The car phone system from Bell Telephone Company is just too heavy, weighing a total of 18 kilograms. It requires a complete overhaul of the car interior, which takes eight days and is just too much trouble.

I really wish I had a telephone that I could take with me anytime and that didn't need a cord.

After giving her pager number and password, Peach Blossom heard the operator announce that her best friend had a team meeting in the morning and couldn't come or go shopping, but they had made time for her to go to the Peninsula Hotel for a French dinner in the evening.

After leaving a message for her best friend, Peach Blossom Girl hung up the phone and went upstairs listlessly.

Upon reaching the second floor, I spotted two familiar faces. What a coincidence! To see these two scoundrels in Sai Wan must be related to the big movie that was produced by Tung Wah Coffin Home.

The police officer's intuition told Peach Blossom Girl that there was definitely something wrong with these two scoundrels, so he ordered a bubble tea and a pineapple bun and sat down opposite Chi Mengli.

"Handsome Sheng, what a coincidence! You're not having breakfast at the Sheraton Hotel, but instead coming out to enjoy the local life and have curry beef brisket rice?"

Nowadays, all the gangsters in the underworld know that Handsome Sheng is rich and powerful. He doesn't even bother to stay in a villa; he just stays at the Sheraton Hotel. He's very impressive!

Peach Blossom Girl also took the opportunity to make a joke, then stubbed out her cigarette in the ashtray and looked at Chi Mengli with a half-smile.
