Hong Kong Storm: The King of Jobs

Chapter 694, Section 284: Bad Luck

"leave!"

"This is fucking exhausting!"

Da Ye didn't mind the saliva from the battery on the cigarette holder. He took a deep drag, and as the nicotine entered his body and took effect, he started puffing smoke from both nostrils and complained.

"Uncle Eagle, what's this?"

After recovering, Daye struggled to his feet, walked to the pile of large spheres, and tried to pick one up. He discovered that each solid sphere weighed at least twenty pounds.

Thirty-five spheres weigh seven or eight hundred pounds.

"Ninth Sister works in the pork industry, and pork requires chemical raw materials, so this should be the raw material."

If you were to ask the bald eagle to explain what those large spheres on the shore are, it really wouldn't be able to. It only went to elementary school and only knows multiplication, division, and recognizing characters. Asking it to understand chemistry is a bit of an overreaction.

Although he didn't understand chemistry, he knew that these were the ingredients the cook needed.

Upon hearing that it was raw materials, Da Ye had no interest whatsoever. They didn't have any cooks, and even if they had the raw materials, they would have to find someone else to cooperate with. Whether they could succeed was another matter entirely. If they were to be cheated, they would lose both their wife and their army.

In addition, this is a business led by a criminal organization. If the raw materials are lost, the organization will definitely pursue the matter, and everyone will have to run away. It's better to just work as a tout and make money.

"It's almost dawn, hurry up and get these spheres onto the truck."

Seeing that the mission was accomplished, Bald Eagle smiled and told Battery and Daye to hurry up and load the raw materials onto the truck. The closer they got to the last step, the more stable they had to be and not cause any trouble.

After saying that, the bald eagle picked up a large round ball and walked towards the back door.

Da Ye hadn't recovered yet, and someone needed to keep watch, so he let the battery do the work first while he finished his cigarette.

We're all good brothers, so when one of us is suffering from kidney deficiency, we should definitely lend a hand.

Without saying a word, Battery picked up the two large round balls and walked out.

Seeing that the bald eagle and the battery had both left, Daye sat on the sphere and continued smoking to regain his senses. When he reached the mouthpiece, he took the cigarette butt off and flicked it directly into the swimming pool.

Then he picked up his wallet and watch that he had left on the shore, hugged a large ball, and walked out.

Every move of the three bald eagles was under the watchful eyes of Peach Blossom Girl and the others. Ding Gou adjusted the camera, turned off the flash, and handed it to En Ge.

The distance was a bit far, so En Ge leaned forward two meters and took a picture of the bald eagle carrying its cargo.

They took eight photos in a row, capturing all three bald eagles who were moving the cargo, leaving no one out.

"Close the team!"

En Ge returned the camera to Ding Gou and said something softly.

Ding Gou took the camera, shook his head, indicating it was impossible, but a wicked idea quickly popped into his head, and he said, "Impossible. It's the rules of the Pink Guys. Once you start something, you have to go all the way."

"The more steps involved, the more likely things are to go wrong."

"I guarantee that Bald Eagle will definitely make contact with someone, otherwise his efforts tonight will have been in vain!"

"I'll be the bookmaker, betting on morning tea, I'll take any bet, no matter how big!"

Hearing Ding Gou say this with such certainty, En Ge smiled. Ding Gou, that stingy fellow, is usually the most frugal. When he visits, he always buys the cheapest Thai pineapples.

He won't gamble on things he's not sure about!
Since I'm paying for the dim sum anyway, I might as well just gamble with him. What Ding Gou said makes sense, but the odds are slim, and I have a better chance of winning.

"Alright! I bet there won't be any contact today. If I lose, I'll treat you two to Lotus Pavilion."

En Ge placed a bet on the morning tea at Lotus Pavilion.

Peach Blossom Girl, who was watching the excitement from the sidelines, also felt that Ding Gou had a better chance of winning. However, since the two big shots were betting, she, as a junior, should not get involved. Regardless of who won or lost, she would still get to have morning tea.

Thirty-five round balls were moved quickly. Bald Eagle hadn't done any strenuous exercise in a long time. He leaned against the front of the vehicle, panting heavily, his undershirt sticking to his back. This hard labor was more tiring than going to Malan ten times.

After this is all sorted out, I need to go to the bone clinic to loosen up my muscles!
The battery locked the carriage door, and the key was handed to Bald Eagle: "Uncle Eagle, all done. Shall we go back?"

"It's almost dawn. If we don't leave soon, it'll be easy for them to spot our secret!"

Bald Eagle took the key, put it in his pocket, and waved to Daye, who was wringing out his clothes: "You can't wring them dry. Go back and change into some new clothes."

"boarding!"

The goods have been received, and there's no reason for them to stay any longer. Bald Eagle beckoned his two trusted henchmen to get in the car and head back the way they came.

"The milk truck is on its way, waiting at the Ping Shan Road exit. Three groups of people will each follow for a short distance. Don't alert them; we're here to catch the big fish."

"One team enters the site, collects evidence, extracts fingerprints, and dismantles the CCTV camera."

Guo Guohao took the walkie-talkie, walked to the window, and saw the three bastards, Bai Tou Ying, drive away in their truck and disappear on the road. Only then did he raise the walkie-talkie and give instructions on how to handle the aftermath.

Bald Eagle is just a small fry; this time, their target is gold. Interpol and the International Narcotics Control Commission are paying close attention to gold and hope to bring this major player controlling Asian drug supplies to justice.

Then, they would seize control of the gold trafficking channels, unite with other regions in Asia, and arrest everyone involved in the entire network. But Sharpyson didn't care about the gold; he only wanted instant fame, to speak at the UN General Assembly on Drugs and become a new political star.

Playing fancy tricks well is a hundred times better than doing hard work!
Similarly, if he were to arrest the gold medalist under his leadership this time, he might not get the position of Chief Superintendent, but he would definitely be on the shortlist for Assistant Deputy Commissioner.

And obtaining the knighthood he so desperately desired, the highest-ranking Legion of Honour, was impossible, but obtaining the MBE (Member of the Order of the British Empire) was no problem at all.

"Close the team!"

Thinking of this, Guo Guohao smiled from the bottom of his heart, picked up the walkie-talkie, and announced that the team was to wrap up.

Xiao Situ least wanted to see Guo Guohao smug. After all, if the arrogant Guo Guohao became successful, he would have nowhere to go. There were only a few positions at the top, and if the arrogant Guo Guohao got to sit in them, he would have to wait.

Wait, damn it!
If you're slow on one step, you'll be slow on every step. Do you want to wait until your hair turns white before you start fawning over that arrogant big shot?
But Xiao Situ didn't dare to cause trouble, because he was the deputy commander-in-chief. If the case went wrong, he wouldn't be able to escape either. Besides, this case was too big, and the credit would be great, which would be very useful for his career development.

He couldn't cause trouble, he could only cooperate. Xiao Situ was furious just thinking about it. He stood up, snorted coldly, and turned to leave, not giving Guo Guohao any face at all.

"You loser!"

Guo Guohao cursed Xiao Situ in his heart, then turned to Zhou Budao and said, "Hong Kong's morning tea is famous all over the world. At this time, we won't be able to sleep even if we go back. Why don't we go to Luk Yu Tea House together?"

Let's chat about some gossip!

When someone invites him to dim sum, Zhou Bulai is naturally delighted and immediately agrees.

Downstairs, Ding Gou looked at the sun already peeking out on the horizon and felt helpless. He had always been lucky with his bets, but today it had failed him, and he had lost to En Ge, that loser.

You have to accept the consequences of your bets! Your character can be terrible, but your gambling etiquette cannot be.

"Lotus Pavilion! My bill! Let's go now."

Ding Gou put the walkie-talkie in his pocket and called to Peach Blossom Girl and En Ge to set off.

"Didi didi didi."

The pager, which had just been turned on, started vibrating. Ding Gou instinctively reached into his left pocket and pulled out the pager.

"Drip drip"

The ringing and vibration continued, but the pager in Ding Gou's hand did not light up. His expression changed, and he quickly reached into his right pocket and pulled out the constantly vibrating pager.

"Gentlemen, I'm so sorry! I really wanted to invite you to have tea and snacks at Lotus Pavilion, but I have a mission right now, so I'll have to postpone it to another day!"

After saying that, Ding Gou didn't give Peach Blossom Girl and En Ge a chance to reply. He quickly ran to his car and disappeared in a flash.

"That's pretty much what I thought!"

En Ge was all too familiar with Ding Gou's tactics. Judging from Ding Gou's expression, this bastard really had a case to attend to. No cop would lie about this, but that also meant that this tea break was completely hopeless.

"This is the perfect time for dim sum! I'm treating my new friends to Lotus Pavilion."

"Give me a chance, do me the honor?"

En Ge turned his gaze to Peach Blossom Girl, to see what she thought.

Facing En Ge's gaze, Peach Blossom Girl shook her head frankly and begged for mercy, "My mother made my favorite breakfast. If I'm not mistaken, my mother is already up and taking a minibus to the market to buy the freshest bok choy."

"She'll definitely be sad if I don't go home for breakfast."

"Besides, I haven't slept for thirty-six hours. I've already asked Brother Ding Gou for leave and I'm going to go back and sleep for twelve hours straight. I won't open my eyes even if the earth is destroyed."

"Boss, please let me go. Next time we meet, I'll treat you to some Carp Sect food."

Peach Blossom Girl spoke very sincerely; she really couldn't keep her eyes open anymore and was swaying precariously. If she didn't close her eyes and go to sleep soon, she would definitely have to go to the clinic to see a doctor.

"That's settled then. Sweet dreams!"

En Ge wouldn't force anyone to do something against their will; after saying that, he turned and left.

Peach Blossom Girl yawned, turned around and walked to the side of the road, got into her car and left, ready to go home and sleep.

Collecting fingerprints and evidence are complex tasks. Trainees do them, while experienced colleagues supervise them, so they don't need to be present.

All I need to do now is go home, eat, take a shower, change my clothes, lie in bed, and sleep soundly until dark.

After staying up for a day and a night, Ding Gou wanted to go home and get some sleep, but the messages on his pager kept him awake. He sped off towards Kowloon Island and saw a self-service phone booth by the roadside, so he slammed on the brakes.

“Crack.”

The car stopped precisely in front of the self-service phone booth. Ding Gou pulled out the woman's head, inserted it into the coin slot, and called the paging service.

The paging operator on duty 24 hours a day sounded exhausted.

The previously drowsy Ding Gou became completely alert after hearing the message relayed by the pager, and all sleepiness vanished from his mind!
