Hong Kong Movie: At the beginning, Big Boss B asked me to draw the death lottery

Chapter 104 A mere 800,000 to buy the life of a foreigner in the Political Department is a very good deal.

The roar of the yacht engine gradually subsided, and Chen Jianan looked at the approaching dock with some confusion.

"Mr. He, what brings you here?"

His response was a whistling gust of wind from a punch.

boom--

Ahua delivered a powerful punch straight to Chen Jianan's face, shattering his glasses.

With Chen Jianan's cry of pain, several henchmen immediately ran out of the cabin, carrying ropes, and without saying a word, they put them around Chen Jianan's body.

"What are you trying to do? Is there no law anymore...?"

Chen Jianan was terrified, and before he could finish speaking, his mouth was firmly sealed shut.

The yacht docked, and two henchmen carried a sack full of pupae towards the warehouse's cold storage.

Snapped--

The lights in the cold storage room were on, and the frost-covered air vents were spewing out piercing white steam.

A henchman took a jacket and draped it over He Yaozong's shoulders.

"Ahua, turn off the air conditioning first."

Taking the chair from Ah Wah, He Yaozong sat down in front of the constantly churning sack, then gestured to the henchman behind him to untie the sack.

Chen Jianan was utterly horrified, shaking his head frantically as if trying to say something.

After calling the rest of his men out, Ah Wah retrieved a fish knife from outside and then slammed the air-conditioned room door shut.

"Chen Jianan, I don't care how you cheat and swindle people in Malaysia."

But I'm very unhappy that you came to Hong Kong Island and dared to set your sights on me.

Now I'm giving you a chance. Tell me, who ordered you to sabotage the Lok Fu Estate project? If you even shake your head, I'll have someone stab you!

"woo woo woo woo--"

Chen Jianan nodded quickly, his face turning red in an instant.

He ripped the rag out of his mouth, and before he could catch his breath, Chen Jianan spoke.

"It was...it was Superintendent Henry from the Political Department who sent me to find you. He wants to win you over..."

But they weren't afraid you wouldn't agree, which is why they asked me to talk to you.

There are advantages to working with the British, at least... ah!!

Before he could finish speaking, He Yaozong gave Ahua a wink.

Ahua immediately raised his knife and slashed at his arm.

"I'll talk, I'll talk!!"

The knife sliced ​​off a chunk of flesh from Chen Jianan's arm, terrifying him to the core.

He Yaozong simply shook his head in displeasure.

"I'll give you a hint, don't think I know nothing."

"The Political Department needs to tell me exactly what they're going to use against me. If you say one wrong thing, they could cut off your arm!"

Chen Jianan nodded hastily and quickly replied.

"Here's the thing, the political department wants you to help me get Hassan sorted out."

However, Hassan had already been placed under surveillance by their men. They were just waiting for Hassan's men to finish their work before they would arrest them and take them to the political department's safe house for interrogation.

"Once they get a confession, they'll kill you to cover it up, using it as leverage against you!"

Stimulated by the pain, Chen Jianan was able to speak more fluently.

After saying that, he glanced at He Yaozong again, and seeing that the other party did not speak, he quickly added.

“I was tricked into coming here by him, Mr. He. They have dirt on me, and I won’t make any profit from this deal!”
This has nothing to do with me, it really has nothing to do with me!

He Yaozong took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, took a deep drag, and then continued to ask.

"Since we're talking about cooperation, why not be more honest?"

Chen Jianan, you said the Political Department has dirt on you. Can you tell me what kind of dirt it is?

"I founded Hong On Properties 15 years ago, but due to a misjudgment of the situation at the time, I went to Malaysia to develop the real estate business."

Over the years, through Henry's family connections, I've been looking for scapegoats in Southeast Asia to carry out unfinished pre-construction housing projects.

Henry helped me with the connections in Southeast Asia. When I first started working with him, I would send him a copy of all the financial records to gain his trust.

But I never expected him to send me to Hong Kong Island to deal with you. Please let me off the hook, I was forced into this situation..."

At this point in his speech, Chen Jianan suddenly burst into tears.

I really don't know what kind of creatures these bastards are being kept by the Political Department.

He Yaozong reached out and snatched the fish knife from Ahua's hand, then slapped it onto the cold floor.

"Alright, tell me, where are all the ledgers you and Henry have kept over the years?"

Since we're going to cooperate, we should all be open and honest with each other, right?

"Mr. He, how could I leave such a mess to cause future trouble!"

"So, all your dirt on you is in the hands of the Political Department?"

Chen Jianan simply nodded tremblingly, not daring to say anything more.

He Yaozong chuckled, put the cigarette he was holding in his left hand into his mouth, then picked up the fish knife and wiped it on Chen Jianan's body.

"Listen carefully, call Henry in a bit, and do exactly what I say."

After the call, we'll leave each other in peace. Go back to Malaysia and don't let me see you in Hong Kong again!

Chen Jianan agreed repeatedly, and his anxious heart finally felt a little more at ease.

He Yaozong immediately got up, told Ahua to keep an eye on him inside, and then went out of the air-conditioned room to make a phone call.

The call was to Liu Jianming.

The call connected, and Liu Jianming's voice came through the receiver.

"Which one?"

Is it convenient to talk?

"convenient!"

"Liu sir, listen carefully. If you do one more thing for me, I will return the dirt on Han Chen to you."

"real?!"

Liu Jianming's voice suddenly rose several decibels, and it was clear that he was extremely excited.

"I won't lie to you, let's talk about serious matters."

I'll give you a phone number in a bit. You need to hurry and arrange for the intelligence department to wiretap it.

Remember, about an hour later.

If your superior asks why you were tapping this phone, just say you received a tip that someone is planning something that could cause a diplomatic incident in Hong Kong!

"it is good!"

After finishing his phone call with Liu Jianming, He Yaozong finished the cigarette in his mouth, then threw away the cigarette butt and turned to walk towards the cold storage.

Wan Chai, Police Headquarters Building, Intelligence Section office area.

"Quick! Quick! Contact the telecommunications department immediately and tell them that our intelligence section has an emergency and we need to contact them to handle it!"

Liu Jianming went downstairs for a stroll, then went outside to have a bowl of herbal tea to calm his temper. Finally, he returned to the office area and immediately called on several staff members to get things done.

A female clerk asked, puzzled.

"Liu sir, what's going on? You looked radiant when you came back from outside. Is there some big case involved?"

"Whether it's a big case or not, you'll find out when you come to the communications room with me."

In short, I received an anonymous tip that someone is plotting a major case in Hong Kong that could endanger diplomatic relations. We must not let our guard down!

As Liu Jianming hurriedly made arrangements, the several technicians from the intelligence department, without suspecting anything, quickly followed Liu Jianming toward the communications room.

Following the number provided by Ho Yiu-chung, and through communication with the telecommunications company, Lau Kin-ming finally received a radio message from that number twenty minutes later.

"Liu sir, the signal source seems to be in international waters."

"Ignore it, start listening!"

Liu Jianming put on his headphones and signaled to the staff member taking notes to get ready!
Time ticked by, and all that remained was a long wait.

Finally, a few minutes later, the female staff member in charge of locking onto the signal source spoke up to remind them.

"The call has been made. Please prepare to take notes!"

"Recording is ready!"

"The records are ready!"

"OK, don't say anything!"

As Liu Jianming spoke, a hurried voice came from the listening device.

"Hello? Mr. Henry, have you arrived yet?"

"I've arrived. Where are you?"

The Cantonese spoken with a British accent surprised the intelligence team.

That voice... it sounds familiar!
"I'll be there soon, but did you bring all those things?"

"Don't worry, I promised you. As long as you can handle what I asked you to do, I'll return the item to you." "So you didn't bring the item? Henry, the person you're asking me to kill is from the Kuala Lumpur Investigation Bureau!"

If you don't help me clear my name, how can I trust you?

"So, are you going to do this or not? Hassan is at the Grand Hyatt Hotel. If he dies, I'll immediately help you destroy this dirt!"

Upon hearing this, a hint of panic flashed across Liu Jianming's face.

It seems that besides him, there are quite a few other people in this world who are also held hostage by negative rumors...

There was a long silence from the listening device, and then the next sound made the entire intelligence team drop their jaws in astonishment!

"Superintendent Henry, I'm warning you!"

If you dare to expose my secrets, you won't get away with it either!

I will expose everything you've done over the years, including your attempt to frame me and kill Malaysian investigators!

This statement was said somewhat deliberately, and not only the officers in the intelligence department, but even Henry's side was slightly taken aback.

"You recorded it? Are you trying to use it to threaten me?"
I'm sorry, but Hong Kong Island is a place that upholds the rule of law. Recordings cannot be used as evidence in court.

Thomas, I advise you to calm down. Guess whether the judge will believe me, a police officer, or you, a con man who's been under investigation in Kuala Lumpur for three years!

At this moment, the female clerk in charge of the frequency check turned to look at Liu Jianming, her expression slightly dazed.

"Liu sir, shall we continue the wiretapping?"

Several clerks responsible for taking notes also looked at Liu Jianming in unison.

Although he didn't speak, his eyes were clearly asking Liu Jianming if he should reconsider and avoid causing trouble for the intelligence department.

Fortunately, the phone call ended just as Liu Jianming was in a dilemma.

Everyone in the room breathed a sigh of relief.

"Inspector Liu, do we need to send all these... all these recordings up for review?"

"Stop the investigation! Go and notify the security department immediately. Have them take some people to the Grand Hyatt Hotel and find that Malaysian investigator first!"

Liu Jianming's experience proved invaluable; he knew that the most urgent task was to protect the investigator from Malaysia first.

As long as it doesn't involve a diplomatic incident, everything else is a family matter behind closed doors!
Their intelligence section doesn't have three heads and six arms, and they're not qualified to question the political department's officers.

As for these recording devices, we'll just send them to the security department and let those bosses who sit in their offices reading newspapers all day have a headache!
At this moment, in Sai Wan Mei, a small cruise ship is moored by the pier.

Henry stared at the phone in his hand, puzzled, and couldn't help but ask Fang Ya'an, who was sitting across from him.

"How exactly did you explain this to Thomas? This guy is acting strangely today."

They insisted on meeting me, but I haven't seen them show up yet?

Boom——

Just as Fang Ya'an was about to respond, an explosion suddenly occurred at the bottom of the cruise ship.

The explosion wasn't particularly powerful, but it completely tore the small fishing boat to shreds.

The oil in the hull burst into flames, and in a raging inferno, Henry Evans, along with his loyal sheepdog, died instantly!

……

Tread-tap-

A police superintendent from the security department strode quickly and pushed open the door to Liu Jianming's office.

"Liu Jianming!"

"Li sir, what's the matter?"

Liu Jianming stood up, saluted the superintendent, and then asked.

"What is it? Something big has happened at the Political Department!"
Just half an hour ago, Superintendent Henry of the Special Branch was attacked by a bomb on a cruise ship in Sai Wan Mei!
The police chiefs have completely lost their minds, questioning whether our security department is employing a bunch of incompetent people and whether we should consider sending them to guard the reservoir in Yuen Long!

Liu Jianming was startled for a moment, but then gradually calmed down.

He didn't say anything, but simply opened the drawer of his desk, took out a cassette tape, and handed it to his boss.

"What's this?!"

"Li Sir, take this to Chief Executive and let him listen carefully. Maybe it will help him regain his senses."

With some skepticism, Liu Jianming handed over the cassette tape, which was then inserted into a recording and playback device.

After listening to the two-minute recording of the phone call, Liu Jianming's expression gradually became strange.

"Li sir, according to the information I have now, the Political Department may be up to something shady again."

As a result, someone killed him to silence him. What do you think you should do now?

"What else can we do? We can't wash our dirty linen in public!"

Go and speak to the evidence department immediately. Tell them the accident was caused by a boat engine malfunction. Under no circumstances should we give those meddlesome media outlets anything to talk about!

"Should we dig this person out?"

"Let's talk about it later and see how Brother One and the others explain themselves!"

Liu Jianming's superior felt a throbbing pain in his head. He pulled out the cassette tape, waved at Liu Jianming, and then quickly walked towards the boss's office.

……

Ah-Wah, who had finished his business on the high seas, had returned to report to Ho Yiu-Chung at the Wo Tai Tea House.

"Brother Yao, Chen Jianan has been sunk at sea, and the ship has been burned."

The cleanup was done very well; nothing was left behind.

He Yaozong nodded: "What's wrong? You don't seem very happy?"

"It's alright, I'm just heartbroken about that ship. We bought it from those smugglers for 800,000, and now it's burned. It really hurts!"

He Yaozong smiled and said, "What's there to feel bad about? It's already worth it!"

Eight hundred thousand for three lives, one of which belonged to a foreigner in the Political Department—it's a steal by any measure!

Ahua Zhong asked with some concern, "Brother Yao, we killed that foreigner, won't we get into some trouble because of this?"

"I have no idea what you're talking about. Wasn't that foreigner in the Political Department taken down by Chen Jianan?"

Ah Hua suddenly realized: "That's right, this Malaysian is also arrogant, he actually dared to come to Hong Kong Island to kill the British!"
In the end, he even managed to escape without a trace. Those Hong Kong police officers are truly incompetent!

"That's right, but you can rest assured."

After such an embarrassing incident, the police department will only try to cover it up.

Let's not worry about that, but there's something else I need to tell you.

"What's up, Yao-ge?"

He Yaozong tossed a cigarette to Ahua, a wicked smile creeping onto his lips, before giving his instructions.

“Go tell Fly to take some men to North Point to find Fat Lai, and then take him to Sally's Photography Studio in Cheung Sha Wan.”

I booked him a private room over there. Doesn't he like selling risqué magazines? Tomorrow I'll find him some different sales channels; I guarantee his weekly will sell like hotcakes!

Ah Hua scratched his head: "Why did you ask Fly to do this? It's Hung Hing's territory. I'm afraid he won't be able to handle things properly and will make a big mess of things, which would alert people like Chiang Tin-sang!"

"This matter must be handled by Fly; it needs to be a big deal!"
You don't need to worry about what Chiang Tin-sang might say. I already spoke with him beforehand; not killing Fatty Lai is already giving Hung Hing face!

"it is good!"

After being greeted by He Yaozong, Ahua didn't ask any more questions.

He immediately picked up the phone and dialed Fly's number.

"Hey, fly, have you been bored out of your mind lately?"
It just so happens that Brother Yao instructed you to go to North Point and make a name for yourself.

Listen up, in a bit, arrange twenty minibuses to take people to North Point and drag Fatty Lai from Hung Hing to Sham Shui Po. Brother Yao has other plans!

……

It was evening, in North Point, inside Fat Lai's magazine office.

Fatty Li remained seated in his boss's chair, pondering for a long time without finding a solution.

How could the powerful figure I finally managed to latch onto suddenly disappear like that?

The cruise ship's engine malfunctioned and, coincidentally, ignited the oil drums on board.

Now that the political department's backer is gone, should he continue running his newly founded gossip magazine?

If I try to secretly photograph those popular movie stars again, will I get killed by their backers?

Fatty Li felt increasingly uneasy.

bang-

Just as he was feeling agitated, a violent smashing sound suddenly erupted outside his office.

At the same time, an arrogant voice came from outside.

"Don't set it on fire! Don't smash Fatty Li's printing press!"
"Don't make things difficult for the editorial department. They're all cultured people; just let them stay put!"

"Hey kid, where's your boss hiding?!"

Fatty Lai immediately felt a chill run down his spine. This was bad; it was definitely the Wo Shing Wo people coming to his door…

Just as he expected, as he hurriedly went to the door to lock it, the door was suddenly kicked open.

Immediately, an arrogant face that Fatty Li would never forget appeared before his eyes.

"Fatty Li, what are you doing hiding here?"

"Your gang's people are really a bunch of idiots, not a single one of them can fight!"

Fly, carrying a cup of iced lemon tea, led a group of fierce-looking thugs into Fat Lai's office.
