The Chief Detective Inspector is dead. I'm now the top police officer in Hong Kong!

Chapter 151 One punch failed to land, but punches kept coming (22)

Qiao Jingxing understood Lin Tiansheng's meaning: "If Su Long is too successful, even if we can break up Xinji, the benefits for us will not be significant."

"On the contrary, when two tigers fight each other and are torn apart, it is much easier to control."

Lin Tiansheng nodded: "Although we don't need to collude with gangs to make illicit gains, the more gangs we control, the more political influence we have."

"We don't depend on them, so we can let them live or die as we please!"

Qiao Jingxing gave a look of agreement and asked, "What do you plan to do?"

"Next month, once Su Long's men become the head of the Wan Chai district, we'll simply have someone take action and eliminate Fen Zai Cheng directly." Lin Tiansheng flicked his lighter, lit a cigarette, and remained expressionless.

Huang Qixian's eyes changed slightly, and he looked at Lin Tiansheng with a hint of wariness: "Are you really going to make the Xiang family childless?"

Fortunately, Lin Tiansheng is one of our own; otherwise, offending him would have led to dire consequences.

Lin Tiansheng flicked his cigarette ash, nonchalantly saying, "You still have a son and a daughter, how can you expect to die out your lineage? We haven't killed them all yet!"

Qiao Jingxing's face stiffened slightly as he gently advised, "Every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt its debtor. It's better to kill them all than not. However, Fenzi Cheng and Da Zhuang Wei are both seasoned criminals. Once they take the position of acting leader, their life or death is not up to them."

“I support Asheng’s idea.”

Killing Fenzi Cheng, regardless of whether the New Bureau can find the real culprit, will definitely intensify internal strife. Whether Lin Jiang holds Su Long accountable is one thing, but will Su Long sit idly by and wait for Four-Eyed Dragon to return and settle scores?

Huang Qixian, with his low standards, raised his hand and said, "That little pimp won't live long anyway. Let's send him to be reincarnated as soon as possible. Consider him lucky."

“Okay.” Pu Yongshi said calmly, puffing out his cigar.

Chan Ka-lok, the newly appointed senior inspector of the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau (OCTB) in Wan Chai District, arrested Sapi Ma, a red-hot member of the New Triad Bureau, under the pretext of avenging Leung Chun-pong, immediately winning the favor of the foreign commissioner.

Tong Anze, who was in charge of the operations department, knew perfectly well that Chen Jiale was not one of his own. But faced with the united hatred of his colleagues, he could not stop them and quickly helped Chen Jiale gain a foothold.

With the Sapi horse incident and Chan Chi-ming's meritorious service, the competition for the Wan Chai gang leader came to an end. The person who ultimately took the position was none other than Chan Chi-ming's younger brother, "Chi-fai".

At the end of the month, in the New Territories, inside a Buddhist temple.

As acting leader, Fanzicheng personally held an inauguration ceremony for Chen Zhihui, making him a "red stick" in Wan Chai, occupying the lucrative area, and leading three thousand followers.

However, Fenzi Cheng did not stay for the banquet. Instead, he hurriedly left with Lin Jiang, Liu Yuan, Tuen Mun Tiger Lai Chi-keung, Hung Hom Tiger Mak Ko, Walled City strongman "Iron Bull," Tsim Sha Tsui White Tiger Yuen On, and others. The gangsters and triad bosses, having witnessed the leader not supporting his subordinates, looked at each other in bewilderment, suddenly realizing that the internal strife within the New District had reached a fever pitch, with no pretense of respectability whatsoever.

Chen Zhihui, dressed in a suit and holding a bottle of liquor, walked up to Su Long, indignantly saying, "Today is my big day, and the acting leader didn't even offer a toast before leaving. Does he have no respect for his brothers?"

Although some of Su Long's disciples had reservations about Chen Zhihui's easy rise to power, everyone, including Axe Jun, Li Yutian, and Niu Jie, respected the rules.

Su Long, dressed in a black training robe with rolled-up sleeves and a jade pendant around his neck, looking like a martial arts master, raised his wine glass and said, "Your brothers are all by your side, don't get angry over irrelevant people."

Chen Zhihui nodded and said, "Yes, everyone here is my fellow disciple, not the group that left!" In the Bentley, Fenzi Cheng took a deep drag on his cigar, held his breath, and looked on with enjoyment. After a long while, he slowly raised his head and exhaled the smoke.

Lin Jiang, dressed in a blue shirt, sat in the back row. Just by smelling the cigars, he knew they were mixed with marijuana leaves. He said, "Acheng, smoke less."

Fenzi Cheng shook his head, his eyes unfriendly, and said impatiently, "I know, Uncle Jiang, save your breath and say less."

Lin Jiang sighed and advised, "What happened today was a bit undignified. Even triads need to be politically aware. We need to fight without breaking apart, so our reputation won't be affected. If outsiders know we're not united, even more will dare to come and challenge us."

"Am I being undignified?!"

"As the top leader, he can't even decide the position of a minor hall master. What's the point of being a leader?" Fenzi sniffed and cursed.

“Uncle Jiang, even those peasants from the Big Circle gang dared to detain my father. If we don’t take down Su Long, the gang will have to change hands sooner or later.”

Outsiders know that Su Long and Lin Jiang are vying for power, but they don't know that Four-Eyed Dragon's investment in the mainland has increased from the initial 80 million to 500 million.

From a simple garment factory, it has expanded into steelmaking and infrastructure projects. The garment factory and steelmaking are doing relatively well, as they have export markets, which are essentially investments.

Lin Jiang has been extremely busy lately, as he's been helping Four-Eyed Dragon sell off his assets, convert them into gold, and plans to transport them to the north.

Even with his seasoned experience, Lin Jiang felt powerless and sighed, "Instead of hiding, we should fight."

The young master's first punch failed to land a blow, causing the situation to deteriorate rapidly. Now, the situation is unfavorable, and the only way to break the deadlock is to fight and carve out a niche for themselves.

Fenzi Cheng straightened his tie and said, "It should have been done a long time ago, Uncle Jiang."

After dropping Lin Jiang off at his doorstep, Fenzi Cheng did not return to the mansion. Instead, he ordered the car to be driven to Portland Street, intending to find his friends for a party.

One-Eyed Hui, leading a group of men, had been watching Fenzi Cheng for two days. When he saw the Bentley parked in front of the Starlight Nightclub, he patted the driver on the shoulder and said, "Good place, let's get to work."

Two police officers in suits, dressed in black, followed One-Eyed Hui out of the car. The driver rolled down the window and asked, "Brother Hui, are you going to call for help?"

When One-Eyed Hui saw that there were New Triad henchmen checking customers at the door, he took the gun from his waist and threw it into the car window: "Come pick me up at the back door."

"receive."

Then One-Eyed Hui led the two to the door, opened his arms, and looked at the henchman with disdain: "What kind of bar is this, daring to search its customers?"

The henchman, who had originally planned to search the place from head to toe, hesitated upon hearing this and apologized, saying, "Sorry, we have VIPs in the store. Drinks are discounted tonight. It'll be a lot of fun, boss."

With the gang leader present, security is definitely necessary. But we still need to make money, so it's best to avoid provoke the high rollers. One-Eyed Hui, cigar in mouth, said coldly, "That's more like it."
