Hong Kong Variety Show: Let you eat melons, eat melons on your sister-in-law

Chapter 370 "370" Ether Meeting
Lin Yao hadn't expected that he would be even busier after returning.

He even suspected that his subordinates were secretly slacking off.

However, Hui Man-piu was busy with the Tsim Sha Tsui land deal, while Cheuk Yu was busy integrating the Eastern Telegraph Company and Hong Kong Telecom.

Jimmy was accompanying Coast and Zhou Chaoxian to discuss the arcade business, while Yang Siwen was secretly taking down those high-ranking executives of ATV.

Everyone was quite busy, so Lin Yao stopped complaining.

After several busy days, Leung Siu-tong finally returned.

He then reported his findings about Thompson to Lin Yao.

“Boss, this guy looks completely ordinary, just from a family with a little money!” Leung Siu-tong shook his head and said, “We can’t find anything out about him from Hong Kong!”

"Tsk!" Lin Yao looked at the information Liang Xiaotang had found and immediately laughed. "This guy is really quite interesting. Looks like I'll have to have Richard look into it!"

“Wait, boss, but Su Xingbo said he knows this guy and wants to talk to you!” Liang Xiaotang suddenly said.

"Mike?" Lin Yao asked, taken aback. "Wasn't that guy playing house with those people in Yifeng?"

Leung Siu-tong said, "I heard he's been working with a group of mysterious people lately and hasn't shown his face in a long time! After he reappeared recently, he contacted me directly!"

Lin Yao nodded: "I understand. When?"

“Just wait a bit, he’ll come to see you!” Liang Xiaotang said directly.

"Okay, I understand!" Lin Yao nodded.

Around noon, Lin Yao's phone rang; it was Su Xingbo calling.

Lin Yao arrived at the parking lot and met Su Xingbai.

"When did you start playing mysterious, kid!" Lin Yao said with a smile as he got into the car, sounding annoyed.

Su Xingbai spread his hands and said, "There's nothing we can do. We've really run into a tough opponent this time."

"Oh?" Lin Yao was somewhat surprised. A guy who could be called a ruthless character by Su Xingbai must be extraordinary!

Su Xingbo said directly, "A while ago, I had a fierce battle with Mo Yilie. That bastard Mo Yilie somehow got hold of a large number of 'happy powder' (a type of drug), and when I sent people to investigate, they immediately lost track of the leads!"

"I didn't give up, so I sent many groups of people to investigate Mo Yilie's suppliers from different directions, and then... one of them contacted me!"

"These people claim to be from the Ether Society and told me to abandon my investigation and cooperate with Mo Yilie!"

Lin Yao asked curiously, "The Ether Conference?"

“That’s right, I searched for a long time but couldn’t find any information about this organization! It wasn’t until I contacted a police informant and hacked into Interpol’s database that I found a clue!” Su Xingbo said with a serious expression, “This Ether Society is really not simple; it’s an international criminal organization!”

"They've been on Interpol's wanted list for a long time, and the things they've done are quite astonishing! Including, but not limited to, overthrowing the government of a small country, such as assassinating a tycoon of an international energy company. In short, their methods are quite ruthless!"

"Hiss!" Lin Yao exclaimed in surprise, "They're targeting you now?"

Su Xingbai nodded and said, "But this doesn't seem to be a bad thing! They didn't want to get rid of me; on the contrary, they think I suit their tastes better and are preparing to kick out Mo Yilie and have me replace him!"

"I think they have big ambitions. They probably want to use Hong Kong's excellent location to do something big!"

Lin Yao sneered, "They might have the ability to mess with some small countries, but what about Hong Kong?"

It's not that Lin Yao looks down on them; England, which hasn't completely faded into the background, is just so-so in their hometown.

If they really wanted to take action, the British wouldn't be able to hold onto Hong Kong at all.

If Englishmen are like this, then other people are even worse.

Su Xingbo shook his head and said, "They definitely don't have the guts, but boss, don't forget what kind of place Hong Kong is. It's a huge springboard that radiates to many regions!"

"If they cause trouble, it will make things very difficult for Hong Kong!"

Lin Yao said, somewhat speechless, "I'm just an ordinary rich man, and now I have to do the work of a superhero saving the world?"

Su Xingbo said with a smile, "It's not that bad, but since they've found me, I'd like to go check out the Ether Society!"

Lin Yao thought for a moment and nodded, saying, "But you have to be careful not to let them control you!"

Su Xingbai said with a sneer, "They can't control me, and I'm not willing to play Mo Yilie's role!"

"Oh?" Lin Yao looked at Su Xingbai with some surprise: "It seems you have big ambitions!"

Su Xingbo said with a smile, "I want to become one of them and figure out exactly how this mysterious organization works! So, there are some things I hope you can help me with, boss!"

"Tell me, what do you need me to do?" Lin Yao said readily.

“I need to take someone down. This guy is called Thompson, and he’s one of the members of the Ether Society. I heard he recently joined the Citizens Party, which is your party, boss!” Su Xingbo said directly.

"Oh?" Lin Yao was immediately surprised: "Are you sure it's that Thompson?"

"That's right, it's him!" Su Xingbo said directly, "It seems this guy came to Hong Kong this time to transport a batch of 'happy powder'!"

"Damn it, I knew this kid was weird! But I couldn't quite put my finger on it!" Lin Yao said with a sneer, "Looks like the case's solved!"

"I was even thinking of having Richard use MI5 to investigate this guy!"

Su Xingbai nodded: "This guy is indeed difficult to investigate, but now that he's on our turf, taking him down shouldn't be too difficult!"

Lin Yao said with a smile, "That's easy! Just have Liang Xiaotang cooperate with you! Just tell me what resources you need!"

"Thank you, boss!" Su Xingbai said with a smile. ...

Lin Yao treated this as a minor incident and didn't take it to heart at all.

If Su Xingbo wants to play, then let him have his fun.

However, Lin Yao did not expect that Thompson would set his sights on Guo Shirong.

A few days later, Lin Yao was at home watching TV with Fang Siwei.

Suddenly, Adi, one of Lin Yao's subordinates, called him: "Boss, something bad has happened!"

"What's the rush?" Lin Yao asked, frowning. "What happened?"

Adi said directly, "It's hard to explain over the phone, it's a big deal! I've already had the construction site sealed off, this is extremely troublesome!"

Adi is a very steady and reliable person, especially after he took charge of the construction and entertainment companies, he has done a very good job.

He said something big had happened and that the scene had been sealed off, so it must be something serious.

Lin Yao immediately told Xiao Fu to drive, and they quickly arrived at the construction site in Tsim Sha Tsui.

Then I saw Adi come straight over to greet me.

Lin Yao asked curiously, "What exactly happened?"

"Go and take a look!" Adi said hurriedly. "If I hadn't discovered it in time, everyone here would probably be in jail!"

Lin Yao followed Adi to a pile of building materials, and then Adi tore open some of the building materials.

Then Lin Yao saw the Happy Powder packaged in a plastic bag appear in front of him.

Lin Yao was completely stunned, then looked at Adi with a serious expression and asked, "How many?"

“This whole area is full of them, at least several tons!” Adi said with a headache, “These were discovered by the workers during construction!”

"Damn it!" Lin Yao couldn't help but swear.

The construction projects in Tsim Sha Tsui were already under tight deadlines, and now this kind of thing has happened.

If word gets out, won't the work be halted for a long time?

Lin Yao asked directly, "Where did these construction materials come from?"

“It seems so, it was provided by Boss Guo!” Adi said after thinking for a moment.

Lin Yao immediately picked up the phone and dialed Guo Shirong's number, asking him to come to the construction site as soon as possible.

Guo Shirong rushed over quickly, smiling as he said, "Ayao, what's the matter that you're in such a hurry to call me to the construction site? I'm watching my daughter's violin exam!"

Lin Yao said irritably, "If you don't come over soon, you'll only be able to watch your daughter perform on TV in prison from now on!"

"What's going on?" Guo Shirong asked, puzzled.

Lin Yao pointed to the pile of building materials and said, "Come and see for yourself!"

Guo Shirong was dumbfounded when he saw this bunch of happy fans in front of him: "What the hell is going on?"

Lin Yao also said directly, "I'm also curious, what the hell is going on!"

Although this matter is not a problem for people like Lin Yao and Guo Shirong.

Both sides have resources and connections that can clear themselves of suspicion.

However, the construction site in Tsim Sha Tsui cannot be stopped. If work stops, the two of them will probably have to pay a lot of money in breach of contract penalties.

Guo Shirong immediately summoned his men and roared angrily, "Investigate this immediately! Find out what's going on!"

His men quickly traced the route along the line of building materials.

However, Guo Shirong, hands on his hips and panting heavily, said, "What do we do now?"

"We have no choice but to call the police. It's hard to keep quiet about this kind of thing!" Lin Yao shook his head and said.

The large number of people on the construction site are not all Lin Yao and Guo Shirong's men; there are also people from Tang Judy's Million Group.

Even if the three of them work together to keep quiet, it doesn't necessarily mean that this matter won't be leaked.

Moreover, with so many happy fans, it's impossible to hide it from them.

Lin Yao had no choice but to pick up the phone and dial the police.

The police arrived at the scene quickly and were taken aback when they saw the crowd of happy fans.

Then he continued making phone calls and summoned more police officers.

Then the entire construction site was surrounded by police from various departments.

All those involved have been taken into custody.

"Mr. Lin, Mr. Guo, this matter is probably going to be difficult to handle! The reporters have all arrived!"

The officer in charge of the case said with a headache.
