Hong Kong variety show: I can boost loyalty, the most generous boss.

Chapter 145, Section 144: The Safe House Isn't Safe, and the Foreign Police Officer's Shock!

Even with his good temper, Raymond Chow couldn't help but lose his temper. This film, "The New Legend of Shushan Swordsman," will cause Golden Harvest to lose at least ten million yuan, putting the company's cash flow in trouble and affecting Golden Harvest's position in the industry.

Currently, Giant Interactive, Golden Harvest, and New City Films form a three-way power balance in the film industry. New City Films is the weakest, as it does not have its own cinema chain and can only survive by relying on Lei Jun's Golden Princess Cinemas.

Giants Films and Golden Harvest Films were the biggest competitors. Sammo Hung and Lung Chan were the right-hand men of Golden Harvest Films, and they made many classic films in the 80s, which established Lung Chan's position as a kung fu superstar.

However, this disastrous failure of Golden Harvest could very well cause it to fall behind, which naturally makes Raymond Chow very angry!
Inside the safe house, James looked at the fully armed English police officers and still felt uncertain!
"Commander Jack, are you sure those Chinese people can't find this place?"

Jack was dressed in civilian clothes, with an M1911 pistol hanging from his waist. This pistol was much more powerful than the revolver that was standard issue for the police force.

Jack is in his forties, with a typical white appearance. He served in the military in his early years and later transferred to the police department as he got older. He is an experienced sharpshooter.

"Don't worry, even if the thugs find a safe house, we won't let them harm a single hair on your head!"

"Brothers, don't you agree?"

"Yes, as long as they find this place, we'll beat their asses to a pulp."

"Haha, just a bunch of gangsters. Do they really think we're those useless cops?"

The eight English police officers inside the room started joking around. Most of them had served in the army and were later specially trained for security work. They were all sharpshooters with excellent marksmanship.

They were all in plainclothes, but their weapons were quite impressive: an MP5 submachine gun, three Remington shotguns, and the rest were M1911 pistols. They were also equipped with body armor, making them one of the best-equipped units in the police force.

Jack patted James on the shoulder and said with a smile:

"Hey buddy, don't be so tense, have a sip of beer~"

"Everything is under control. You'll be safe after tomorrow!"

After appearing in court tomorrow, James will be escorted to England, Yang Jun's criminal gang will be wiped out, and everything will be over!
"It's pouring rain outside, and there's no one around. Let's have a drink!"

Jack opened two cans of beer and handed one to James, intending to calm him down.

The surveillance video inside the house shows that it is raining heavily outside, and there are only a few people with umbrellas on the road. It is clear at a glance.

"Bill, how's it outside?"

Jack asked Bill, who was on duty outside the door, through the walkie-talkie.

Bill hunched his shoulders, glanced at the torrential rain outside, and cursed:
"This is terrible! I should be cuddling a little girl in this weather, not working here!"

"Haha, you guys get two days off after tomorrow~"

Bill stood under the eaves, smoking, taking a drag every now and then.

"Holy crap! What's that?"

Three SUVs stopped, and a group of more than ten burly men wearing black raincoats walked into the street, each carrying an automatic rifle.

This group of people hid their faces in the rain, revealing only their hungry, wolf-like green eyes.

"Fuck! Someone found this place?"

Bill was so startled that he dropped the cigarette from his mouth and hurriedly reached for his gun at his waist, but he wasn't fast enough.

boom.
Bill was shot in the forehead and slowly collapsed. Before he died, he couldn't understand how the other person's marksmanship was so accurate.

Bill was wearing a bulletproof vest, yet he was shot dead by the other party, which clearly shows that the other party was prepared.

"Damn it! Something really bad has happened!"

Inside, Jack put down his beer, leaned over to the monitor, and saw Bill lying on the ground. He then used the walkie-talkie to call Bill outside.

"Bill, respond if you hear me!"

"Damn it, someone's here!"

Jack discovered through the surveillance video that about a dozen men in raincoats rushed towards their safe house. One of the men, who was leading the group, even fired a shot at the camera, and the video went completely black.

"Fuck, the surveillance cameras are all destroyed!"

Unable to see what was happening outside through the security cameras, Jack shouted:
"Load your bullets and prepare for battle!"

The eight Englishmen inside were all well-trained. They reacted immediately, took out their guns, loaded bullets, and stood ready for battle.

Meanwhile, a police officer named Bob immediately contacted police headquarters.

"Hello, hello, hello! I can't get through on the phone~"

In fact, all the telephone lines in this area have been cut, so they have no signal at all when making calls, whether it's a mobile phone or a landline.

Panic began to spread, and James, pale with fright, said in a trembling voice:
"You said the safe house was safe, you liars!"

Jack made a shushing gesture and calmly said:
"Don't worry, our door is very secure; ordinary people can't get in..."

Before he could finish speaking, the door was blown open, and a huge shockwave swept towards the people inside. The foreign police officers lost their footing and were knocked to the ground.

Before he could even finish speaking, reality slapped him hard in the face!

They carried solid explosives and smashed open the iron gate? Jack was dumbfounded. Were these ruthless bandits so capable that they could even get their hands on such high-explosive bombs?
"shot!"

A cloud of dust filled the air at the entrance, making it impossible to see if anyone was there.
Bang bang bang.
Da da da da da da.
Jack took the lead and pulled the trigger, firing at the gap, but after firing for a while, he didn't hear any screams.

"Something's not right! Wait a minute, they haven't rushed in!"

Since the surveillance video was no longer available, Jack and his crew couldn't see what was happening outside, so they just fired randomly, wasting bullets in the process!
The gunfire stopped, and they realized there was no one at the door.

"Wait a minute, shoot anyone you see, don't let them into the house!"

Jack gestured to the officers inside the building, and everyone hid behind cover, their eyes fixed on the doorway.

This safe house has no windows, only an iron door, so the only way for the thugs to break in is through the door.

As soon as these thugs show their faces, they open fire together, ensuring that all the thugs who come in are killed!

"Don't be afraid! The advantage is with me!"

"If we can hold out for just ten minutes, the surrounding residents will definitely call the police, and backup will arrive within ten minutes."

What Jack didn't know was that the phone signal in this area was being jammed, making it impossible to call the police.

Unless there happened to be a police officer patrolling nearby, but given today's heavy rain, the chances of any officers patrolling were slim. James hid under a table, silently praying to God. He began to regret believing John's lies and becoming a witness for the prosecution!
It was quiet outside, like the calm before a storm!
A round object rolled into the room. Jack and the others were engrossed in their work, so of course they saw it.

"Grenade!"

Jack and the others instinctively crouched down, and a bright white light shone down, blinding them.

A deafening roar shattered Jack's ears, his head throbbed, and he was so dizzy he couldn't stand.

"Fuck! This isn't a grenade, it's a stun grenade!"

A stun grenade, also known as a flashbang, is a non-lethal weapon typically used by special forces in Europe and America.

Jack had seen it once before when he was serving in the army. The sound waves were incredibly powerful, and if you weren't prepared, you would lose your fighting ability in an instant.

How did they get their hands on this? It's not like they're just a bunch of triad members. Damn intelligence agencies, why would something like this appear in Hong Kong?
Jack and the others lay on the ground convulsing, their pupils dilated, and white foam involuntarily dribbling from the corners of their mouths.

His eyes rolled back, foaming at the mouth, and he lay motionless on the ground. Although he was still conscious, he could only watch helplessly as a group of masked thugs rushed into the doorway.

Jack reached for the gun next to him, but a foot landed on his hand, and a scream rang out!

"Ahhh~"

"Don't move, or I'll kill you all!"

Wang Jianjun's cold voice came from above, pointing a gun at Jack's head, while the other foreign police officers were also taken into custody.

They lost already? Jack could hardly believe his eyes. His elite troops had been so easily taken down!
The entire army was wiped out! The enemy was completely unharmed!
Impossible! These people are not ordinary thugs, nor can they be gang members; they are more like a well-trained special forces unit.

Jack looked up and saw that the group of people were dressed in black combat uniforms, combat boots, goggles and earmuffs, wearing bulletproof vests and tactical vests, carrying MP5 submachine guns, and with pistols and tactical knives at their waists. They were armed to the teeth!
Holy crap, who calls this a club? I'll beat the crap out of him right here and now!
"Who are you?"

Jack asked the question that had been on his mind, but no one answered him.

Wang Jianguo compared the photos one by one, inwardly complaining:

"Damn, these foreigners all look like they were made from the same mold, it's so hard to tell them apart!"

Chinese people often suffer from face blindness when looking at foreigners. They can't tell who is who among all Europeans and Americans, and all white people look the same!

Finally, they pulled James out from under the table, dragging him off by his hair. Wang Jianguo compared the photos and nodded, saying...
"That's him! Mr. James!"

James was terrified and cried, yelling at Jack and the others.

"Help me! You said the safe house was safe!"

Wang Jianguo pulled out his pistol, pointed it at James's chest, and fired. With a bang, James fell to the ground, spitting blood.

"Fuck! If you can trust the cops, pigs will fly!"

James regretted it! He believed the police's lies and ended up dying tragically in the so-called safe house!
Bang. Another shot rang out, and James was hit in the head again, falling to the ground motionless.

"Who exactly are you people? The police will definitely catch you."

Jack continued his frantic shouting, but Wang Jianjun and the others ignored him, responding only with a cold, curt remark.

"You bunch of trash? Maybe in your next life!"

Wang Jianjun disregarded these elite British troops and addressed the special forces soldiers beside him:
"Take the weapons, remove the bulletproof vests, take everything!"

Although the special forces have no shortage of bulletproof vests, these things are quite valuable. The Russians sell them to them at a high price. If there are free bulletproof vests, of course they don't need to be polite!

"Let's go! Retreat!"

They retreated back to back. Wang Jianjun did not kill the police officers; it was his boss's order to eliminate the tainted witness.

All the weapons and bulletproof vests were confiscated. Jack and his men were unarmed and powerless, and could only watch helplessly as Wang Jianjun and the dozen or so others left.

The entire operation took only three minutes. At that time, the Hong Kong police probably hadn't even received the news yet. Wang Jianjun and his entourage boarded the car and sped away in the pouring rain.

"Brother Jun, this stun grenade is really useful!"

"It's really bad for my ears! My ears are still ringing!"

Wang Jianguo touched his ears, which were still throbbing slightly. If he hadn't been wearing goggles and earmuffs, he would have rolled his eyes like Jack and the others.

This stun grenade is hard to defend against and has a wide blast radius; it's really a great item!

Wang Jianjun, who was also using it for the first time, said with a smile:

"Tell the boss to find a way to buy a few dozen more!"

Half an hour later, when Joseph arrived at the scene, he was stunned by what he saw. A section of the wall had collapsed, and inside was a group of disheveled police officers, all of them unarmed and without even a baton.

"Where are your guns? They're nowhere to be found!"

Joseph was dumbfounded when he saw the disheveled state of Jack and the others, and the tainted witness lying in a pool of blood!
Good heavens! The safe house was wiped out in one fell swoop. Are Mr. Yang's men really that ruthless?
"Sir, we were attacked by a group of professional mercenaries. They used stun grenades to knock us unconscious and killed the tainted witness."

Jack figured that the group of people they had just met must be mercenaries, and only the top-ranked mercenary team would have that kind of fighting power, otherwise he wouldn't have been wiped out.

"mercenary?"

Joseph gasped, finally realizing the danger of the case. What if he angered Yang Jun? Would he kill him too?
There's no need for me to offend Yang Jun any further because of this case; there are other ways to bring down Li Junxia.

"Sir, two bodies have been found at the scene. One is a colleague from the witness protection team, and the other is James, the tainted witness!"

Ma Jun, who was in charge of investigating the scene, was furious. These ruthless bandits were too arrogant. They not only killed a witness but also killed an English police officer.

"Sir, I suggest we interrogate the plane immediately and find out who's behind it!"

Ma Jun looked serious. This was practically a declaration of war against the entire Royal English Police system, and they had to be severely punished!
Joseph's lips twitched. "They're all Englishmen who died, and I'm not worried. Why are you, a Chinese person, so anxious?"
This Chinese inspector is quite loyal, but he's not very bright. No matter how loyal you are, you won't get promoted under the English system.
"This case is closed. Release the plane!"

Ah! Ma Jun's eyes widened, his expression one of disbelief.

However, since Assistant Commissioner of Police Joseph had already given the order, Ma Jun had no choice but to comply!

Without a tainted witness, there will be no evidence to prosecute the other party when the trial starts tomorrow. It would be better to just release them and give Mr. Yang face!

Joseph wasn't stupid. Yang Jun's power in Hong Kong was already unstoppable. He couldn't possibly act recklessly and try to stop a chariot with his bare hands!
