Hong Kong Film Intelligence King

Chapter 151 Kowloon Police Station Gains Fame
When Le Huizhen returned home, her expression was strange:
"Honey, have you heard something?"

"A very horrific case happened today."

"The professor and his gang raided a high-end bar in the Hong Kong Island district, killing a senior inspector and killing and injuring many passersby in the process."

"The governor's face turned green, and he ordered the head of the Security Bureau to solve the case within a specified time."

Wang Dao chuckled lightly:
"In Hong Kong, do you know who has the best connections?"

Le Huizhen thought for a moment and said:
"Police?"

Wang Dao smiled and shook his head:

"No no no!"

"The truly well-informed people aren't the police."

Le Huizhen didn't understand:

"Who is that?"

The answer was revealed by the kingly way:
"Young and Dangerous!"

Le Huizhen's mouth dropped open:

"what?"

Wang Dao explained:
"To obtain information, your intelligence source must first have access to that information."

"Of the five million people in Hong Kong, more than four million are gangsters."

"Or people with a background in organized crime."

"They are distributed in all aspects of Hong Kong society."

"Where can't we find them?"

"They are almost everywhere, so they can receive all sorts of intelligence."

Le Huizhen exclaimed in astonishment:

"so smart?"

Wang Dao nodded:
"of course."

"Otherwise, why would the police station have informants planted in the triads? Isn't it because the triads are well-informed?"

Le Huizhen nodded repeatedly as she listened:
"I see."

This can be considered as solving one of her mysteries.
"Honey, shall we eat at home or go out to eat today?"

Wang Dao shook his head:
"Can not Go Out."

"Who knows what the professor is going to do tonight?"

"I already ordered takeout, let's eat at home."

"These next two days, unless someone asks you to work overtime, we won't go out."

Le Huizhen said with a smile:

"work overtime?"

"What's so great about working overtime at the TV station right now?"

Wang Dao smiled mysteriously:

"That's not necessarily the case."

Lok Wai-chun assumed he was just being mischievous.

Just as Le Huizhen had expected, nothing happened that night.

Le Huizhen wanted to show off her driving skills and have a good sparring match with Wang Dao when her phone rang.

She was very disappointed.

However, after receiving the call, Le Huizhen was somewhat surprised:
"It's Zhong Ge calling!"

Wang Dao sighed:

Looks like you're going to have to work overtime.

Le Huizhen received the call in a daze; Chen Guozhong's excited yet exhausted voice came from the other end:

"Ah Zhen, I have an exclusive news story."

"The professor has been arrested."

"Would you like to be interviewed?!"

Le Huizhen said in a shrill voice:

"want!"

"where is it?"

Chen Guozhong smiled and said:
"Just come to the Kowloon Police Station."

"Bring the film crew!"

Le Huizhen hung up the phone and screamed in alarm:

"Honey, you're a prophet!"

"You really knew I'd have to work overtime?"

“I need to call my team and get them all back to Wutai Mountain.”

Wang Dao shrugged:

"Okay, go ahead, I'll take you there!"

Le Huizhen hurriedly called her team members—she was serious about getting the news!

Wang Dao drove his Mercedes from her to Jade Terrace, and then took his team members to the Kowloon Police Station.

He stopped the car and followed Lok Wai-chun's film crew into the police station.

Chen Guozhong was already waiting for them, and was surprised to see Wang Dao:
"Wang Sheng and Le Nu are such a loving couple, personally picking them up and dropping them off so late?"

Wang Dao shrugged:

"Women are my own, and if I don't treat them well, it will give others an opportunity to take advantage of me."

Chen Xinjian instructed Chen Guozhong:

"Ah Zhong, why don't you accompany Wang Sheng to his office for a while? Reporter Le will be busy for a long time."

The two returned to the office, and Wang Dao took out Marlboro cigarettes and handed them to Chen Guozhong:

"Is the matter resolved?"

Chen Guozhong took a deep drag on his cigarette.
"solved!"

You have no idea how exciting this is.

"After the police chief reported the information you provided, the top officer clearly didn't believe it!"

"However, this was within our expectations."

"The rest of the time is spent waiting."

"The news came around noon that Inspector Gao from Interpol had been beaten to death, and the professor had taken one of his arms."

"Others only think the professor was venting his personal anger, but I believe..."

The Way of Kings (or the Way of the Lord)
"The professor's target from the very beginning was Inspector Gao's severed arm!"

Chen Guozhong nodded:

"Yes, that's a key."

"The key to joining Interpol."

“We quickly reported this information, but the top leader still didn’t believe it. But now he had no choice but to believe it.”

"Order martial law immediately."

"But there has been no news of the professor's activities for a long time."

"The top leader called again and gave the boss a good scolding."

Wang Dao's expression became quite strange:
"Didn't that top dog send someone to Interpol to investigate?"

Chen Guozhong gave a thumbs up and said:
"You rock!"

"How do you know the professor is already with Interpol?"

Wang Dao shrugged:

"It's not that I'm good at it."

"Instead, I put myself in the professor's shoes."

"It's clear that the professor is facing a dead end."

"Not leaving Hong Kong means death, leaving Hong Kong without taking 20 million means death, and leaving Hong Kong without returning to the United States within the stipulated time also means death!"

"The result is obvious; the professor only has one path to take."

He had no other way out.

"After the top leader issued the warning, Interpol was not attacked, so there are only two possibilities."

"First, the professor didn't come, abandoning the plan to attack—which is obviously impossible."

"Secondly, the professor has been in Interpol for a long time."

"Don't forget, by the time the news of Inspector Ko's shooting reached the Kowloon Police Station, quite a considerable amount of time had passed."

"This period of time is enough for the professor and the others to take action."

Chen Guozhong clapped his hands and said:

"Ado, you really do have the talent to be an intelligence agent."

"That's right, that's how we analyzed it too. The boss then summarized the analysis results and gave them to the top leader."

"The top leader sent someone to investigate, and they were stunned—"

Wang Dao sighed deeply:
"Given the ruthlessness of the professor and his associates, there must be no one left alive in Interpol."

Chen Guozhong said expressionlessly:

"Yes, all twelve members of the Interpol team are dead."

"The professor and his associates transported all twenty million dollars of embezzled funds out of the country in a very open manner."

"If the boss hadn't reminded them, Brother Yi and the others would have made a huge fool of themselves."

Wang Dao sneered:
"He's a big joke now."

"It's even escalated to the international stage."

"The entire Interpol team was wiped out. How big of an event is this?"

"Does he want to distance himself from the problem?"

"He's so beautiful!"

Chen Guozhong nodded slowly.

"There's nothing we can do about it, even though we've already compiled the intelligence a long time ago."

"But because of the previous incident, they won't even bother to respond to our intelligence."

Wang Dao smiled and said:
"I even doubt whether the top leader has forwarded the intelligence reported by the boss."

Chen Guozhong's expression shifted, and he immediately felt that Wang Dao's guess was very reasonable!

Given the nature of foreigners, they are absolutely capable of doing something like that.

The intelligence gathered by Chen Guozhong and his team was entirely based on conjecture, without any evidence whatsoever. Even the most plausible conjecture, even intelligence gathered by intelligence personnel.

Because of the joint mobilization by the local police station chiefs, Brother Yi felt that his "dream of getting rich" had been thwarted, and naturally he harbored resentment towards these chiefs.

And that's when things started to get complicated.

After the Kowloon Police Chief has compiled the intelligence, what will the Chief Executive think?
Will he take this intelligence rationally?
of course not!

"Those bastards are definitely after my money!"

The $20 million in embezzled funds has become a rift between the top dog and the regional bosses.

No matter how alarming the information provided by the bosses was, in Yi Ge's eyes it was all "alarmist talk" intended to stop him from getting rich!
The top leader really won't leak this information.

Chen Guozhong sighed heavily:

"Poor guys from Interpol."

Wang Dao shook his head and said coldly:

"They chose to side with the foreigners, so they have to bear the consequences now."

Wang Dao has no sympathy for the Interpol officers' plight.

They wanted to use a small investment to gain a large return, and they wanted to command the police station to be used by Interpol.

That's wishful thinking. What was their mindset when they came up with this plan?
Didn't they think about the consequences of the situation?
Didn't they consider how much upheaval their decision would cause in Hong Kong?
They didn't!

Then they deserve to die!

Wang Dao showed them no sympathy whatsoever.

"and after?"

Chen Guozhong steadied himself and said:
"The professor's actions have confirmed the accuracy of our intelligence; even the top leader can't ignore it now."

"He quickly gathered the section chiefs, and called the boss, Commander Chen, and me to headquarters."

"He was flushed and demanded that we come up with a plan to pinpoint the professor's location."

Wang Dao coldly snorted:
"You can imagine that scene."

"With Interpol completely wiped out, if the top officer doesn't produce some results soon, he'll probably be dismissed and sent back to Chongqing."

Chen Guozhong sneered:

"So we dropped a bomb on them."

"How exactly did the professor leave Hong Kong?"

Wang Dao laughed heartily:

"Those guys at the police station have basic professional skills; they can easily get the right answer to these kinds of crucial questions."

"But that was the beginning of another big problem."

Chen Guozhong nodded:

"Correct!"

“You weren’t there, and those foreigners’ faces turned completely green.”

"They said it before we even had a chance to tell them the correct answer!"

Wang Dao said in a low voice:
"Military aircraft stationed in the area?"

Chen Guozhong nodded:

"That's right!"

"With the airport under full surveillance by special police, it was absolutely impossible for them to escape with 20 million US dollars."

"But they can only leave by plane, otherwise they will miss the transaction date."

"If that happens, we'll surely die!"

"The answer is easy to deduce, but verifying it is another matter..."

"It's not easy."

Wang Dao laughed heartily.

It's not that easy to see ghosts.

That's the garrison in Chongqing!
The highest-ranking military commander in Hong Kong.

"What should we do about the number one guy?"

"If he keeps nagging, the professor will run away!"

Chen Guozhong said easily:

What other options were available at the time?

"On the one hand, I have to offend the garrison, and on the other hand, I have to end my career on the spot. I have to choose one of these two poisoned drinks."

"It's even possible that the garrison won't offend them at all."

"Perhaps the one who sheltered the professor was not the commander of the garrison at all."

"In the end, the number one guy decided to take a gamble."

"He didn't even go through the Security Bureau's own plan before ordering the boss to take on the task and bring the professor to justice no matter what."

"No matter life or death!"

The Way of the King: Deep Thought

"The top leader is just shifting the blame."

Chen Guozhong was taken aback:
"what?"

Wang Dao explained:
“I even doubt whether the top leader believed our intelligence. Under those circumstances, his insistence that the boss lead the team to the garrison base was nothing more than a desperate gamble.”

"And incidentally, to smear the garrison."

Chen Guozhong was suddenly puzzled:
"Throwing mud?"

Wang Dao shrugged:

"It's almost a certainty that the professor has the protection of the military stationed behind him."

"But how do you know that the professor will definitely be at the base right now?"

"This is not a 100% probability event."

"If it's really for safety reasons, the professor could have entered the plane closer to takeoff."

"But that's exactly what the top leader did back then."

"I suspect the utilitarian goal of diverting attention is indeed real."

Chen Guozhong frowned and said:

"It's actually true?"

Wang Dao casually remarked:
"You think so!"

"The top leader is now facing a huge problem - the entire Interpol team under his command has been wiped out, and he bears unshirkable responsibility no matter what."

"To completely absolve this responsibility, we need someone with enough public attention to take it on."

"The garrison in Chongqing...is it big enough?"

"Given their rank, even the Governor wouldn't be able to find out what they've done, would he?"

Chen Guozhong suddenly realized:
"The top brother is so cunning!"

Wang Dao shrugged:

"For people like them, fighting has become instinctive, and non-stick pans are a basic skill."

"But that's none of our business. We just need to do our own thing."

He asked with concern,

"How did the struggle inside the plane go today?"

"No one was hurt?"

Chen Guozhong smiled and said:
"no!"

“We didn’t think about all the twists and turns at the time; we headed straight for the plane.”

Wang Dao gives a thumbs up:
"Brilliant!"

"They directly avoided the question of who was protecting the professor and went straight to arresting him..."

"Brother Zhong, you've got a knack for fighting!"

Chen Guozhong's face flushed slightly:
"Stop joking."

"We didn't think that much about it at the time."

"I went there purely because of the professor."

Wang Dao smiled and said:

"Brother Zhong is lucky. If he really wants to expose the big tiger at the airport, then he's fallen into Brother Yi's trap!"

Chen Guozhong pursed his lips and said:

"My position is still not high enough!"

"If I were in a higher position, things would be much easier."

Wang Dao chuckled and said:

"Could Brother Zhong be given another chance to improve after this incident?"

Chen Guozhong shook his head:

"Only God knows about that!"

Wang Dao laughed and said:

"I do hope you can get a promotion, so that we won't be so constrained in our work as we are now."

Chen Guozhong sighed:
"I hope so. I do hope I can go further."

"Promotion is always a pleasant thing."

Wang Dao laughed heartily:

“Brother Zhong, you’ve never been one to crave officialdom.”

This is the truth. What Chen Guozhong cares about is whether justice can be served. If it cannot be served, he will serve it himself.

The title "King of Assassins, Seraph" is no joke.

He only kills those who deserve to die, and he never takes money.

No one would do such a thing without a reason; Chen Guozhong is pursuing the fulfillment of justice.

This is a very special policeman.

He can break the law knowingly, just so that justice can be served.

He's not stubborn.

When faced with opponents they cannot match, they wisely give up.

Just like dealing with Johnny Wang's problem, Chen Guozhong himself smashed a lot of hard drives, which were full of videos of Johnny Wang meeting with certain foreigners.

It wasn't that Chen Guozhong was protecting the foreigners, but rather that he knew that in Hong Kong under foreign rule, such a hard drive would magically disappear even if submitted.

Not only that, it will bring trouble to the Kowloon Police Station.

Chen Guozhong is very combative and knows how to protect himself.

His requirement for Wang Dao on his first day of work was "Intelligence is secondary, your safety is primary." If you can't survive, any kind of justice is laughable.

For this reason, Chen Guozhong never cared about the size of his official position.

However, he is now seeking change.

He wanted to advance further; he wanted to seek a higher position.

Wang Dao said softly:
"Hong Kong is now under the control of foreigners, and most of those criminal gangs with powerful connections are related to certain high-ranking foreign officials."

"This only treats the symptoms, not the root cause!"

Chen Guozhong's expression was grim, and he repeated himself:
"I need to promote myself."

Wang Dao immediately said:
"Don't forget our promise, I will do everything I can to help you."

Chen Guozhong nodded slowly.

In fact, when Wang Dao first proposed that idea, Chen Guozhong didn't think much of it.

Achieving justice is enough; why climb higher?
As the cases he handled became increasingly large, he began to feel overwhelmed.

That's right!

It's just that I feel powerless.

As a senior inspector of the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau (OCTB), he has too many things to consider.

Many things are beyond his capacity to handle in his current position; they require a higher position and more power to resolve.

The desire to climb higher and seize more rights becomes an intrinsic motivation.

The two exchanged a glance, smiled simultaneously, and tacitly changed the subject, starting to chat about everyday things.

This isn't the usual place; it's Chen Guozhong's office. Some things should be left unsaid.

Wang Dao was naturally not afraid. After entering the police station, the mini-map was always lit up, allowing him to clearly sense whether there were people outside the office.

As an undercover agent, protecting his identity became second nature to him.

The two chatted and laughed, and it took Chen Xinjian quite a while to come over:

"Ah Zhong, go and be interviewed by Miss Yue."

Wang Dao clapped and said:
"I just heard Inspector Chen recount the case; it was absolutely brilliant. I never imagined that the professor would end up hiding inside a military aircraft of the Chongqing garrison."

"Officers, does this mean we'll have to take things a step further?"

Chen Xinjian laughed heartily:
"I think a promotion is impossible in the short term, but Ah Zhong could potentially reach the same rank as me if he makes a few more contributions!"
