The Hunter's Path: Starting as a constable, ascend to the Old Ones.

Chapter 82: Entering the Scene, Attacked, and the Femme Fatale

"Wow, what a luxurious lineup! Real estate tycoons, power giants, stock market moguls, foreign consuls, and superstars—if terrorists were to take them all down, Hong Kong would be shaken to its core."

Sitting in his car, Chen Jiaju watched as one "distinguished guest" after another entered the Grand Hotel with their invitations, and couldn't help but sigh.

Although the invited tycoons are not among the very elite of Hong Kong, they are still the backbone of Hong Kong society. If anything major happens, it is guaranteed to cause an uproar in public opinion across Hong Kong.

"Ah Ming, do you think there might be terrorists targeting this jewelry exhibition tonight?"

He turned to look at Lu Ming, who was sitting in the passenger seat with his eyes closed, resting.

"The gathering of so many celebrities is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for criminal groups, but news has already spread that the political department is interfering with security. I wonder if the criminal groups will still dare to come."

Lu Ming opened his eyes and smiled.

He said he was resting with his eyes closed, but he was actually investigating the whereabouts of the ruthless female bandit Fei Fei.

It can be confirmed that Fifi is at the Cointreau Hotel.

But he couldn't guarantee that the doctor and his gang would continue with their robbery plan.

After all, the Special Branch has already intervened. Normal criminals would generally choose to back down and wait for another opportunity when they see the police enter the scene.

However, the doctor is a ruthless and insane criminal, and no one can guarantee that he won't do something outrageous.

Therefore, he and Chen Jiaju applied to their superiors to stand guard on the street outside the Grand Hotel so that they could immediately report and handle any situation that might occur.

The superintendent, considering that the Grand Hotel was located within the jurisdiction of their Shenhuan Police Station and that they also bore responsibility for the incident, readily approved Lu Ming and Chen Jiaju's application.

"Li Jie, did you notice anything unusual when you entered?"

Lu Ming looked at Li Jie walking towards them and casually asked a question.

"Everything is normal, there is nothing unusual."

Li Jie had just escorted Long Wei inside when, due to the lack of an invitation, he could only stop at the entrance. However, it was clear that the Jundu Hotel was operating normally.

"Come in and have a seat, and while you're at it, keep an eye on things for us."

Chen Jiaju warmly invited Li Jie to accompany them to keep watch. Since the explosion at the film set, he had already realized that Li Jie had an unusual identity and was very likely someone from his hometown.

Thank you!

Li Jie didn't stand on ceremony and sat directly in the back seat.

"I wonder if those doctors will abandon their plans for tonight."

Lu Ming pondered to himself, then took out a two-way pager and typed out a message: "Mr. Longwei, please remember to inform us immediately if there are any unusual situations at the jewelry exhibition."

"I will."

Soon, his pager received a reply.

Chen Jiaju chuckled at Lu Ming's move. "We can't get in, but our people can. Lu Ming, you're a genius! You actually got Long Wei and the others to be our spies."

"Longwei has just been threatened with an explosion, and he's worried about being assassinated, so naturally he won't refuse our request."

Lu Ming smiled. Earlier in the day, they had approached Long Wei and Li Jie, asking Long Wei, his father, and his assistant to act as undercover agents for them, so that they could keep track of the situation inside the exhibition.

"Hey, isn't that a news reporter from Asia Television? How did she get an invitation to the jewelry exhibition?"

At this moment, Chen Jiaju suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

Lu Ming looked in the direction of the sound and saw Asia Television reporter Yue Huizhen leading producer Idiot Li through the verification door.

He seemed to be deep in thought. This jewelry exhibition was a private event, and theoretically, reporters would not be invited in.

How did Lok Wai-ching, a mere news reporter, manage to get in?

"Everyone must stay at their posts and not leave their duties without authorization. Report any situation immediately."

Inside the venue, Zhou Wenjian scanned the celebrities and tycoons present, and used a walkie-talkie to instruct the political department agents stationed at various key locations.

This time, their political department sent a small team to work with the security company staff for joint security.

Most of the security work is handled by the security company, and their political department only has two agents stationed at key locations.

"Commander Zhou, there's really no need for such a fuss. Our security company can handle this. We've been established for so many years and have never made a mistake."

Chen Liming, the head of the security company, smiled and assured Zhou Wenjian.

"Mr. Chen, I'm just following orders." Zhou Wenjian shrugged and said, "Our political department suspects a group of thugs are trying to take advantage of the jewelry exhibition. Don't be careless."

That's what he said, but he didn't really care.

His superior had long ago said that this joint security operation was nothing more than a political show for the higher-ups, mainly to demonstrate the political department's work attitude in front of these social elites.

In this way, even if they ultimately fail to catch the terrorists, they can still leave people with a good impression of actively investigating and working hard, and won't be pushed out to take the blame.

The general manager, beaming, complimented, "It's a blessing for us ordinary citizens to have such dedicated police officers like those in your Special Branch on Hong Kong Island. The peace and tranquility of Hong Kong Island depends entirely on you."

"This is the result of the efforts of all my colleagues, not just our efforts."

Zhou Wenjian felt relieved and waved his hand modestly, a rare occurrence for him.

Among the crowd, the doctor who had infiltrated the exhibition with a forged invitation watched Zhou Wenjian and his two companions flattering each other and secretly gave Feifei a look.

Feifei immediately understood. Taking advantage of the darkness and everyone's attention being focused on the three pieces of Tsarist jewelry, she quietly left the venue and, disguised as a waitress, made her way to the monitoring room.

In the monitoring room, besides the security personnel from the security company, there was also an agent from the political department.

They were responsible for monitoring the entire surveillance screen, and naturally they saw Fei Fei acting alone. However, seeing that Fei Fei was dressed as a service worker, they didn't pay any attention to her.

"Gentlemen, our general manager instructed me to bring you coffee. Thank you for your trouble."

Feifei knocked on the door of the monitoring room with a tray carrying two cups of fragrant coffee. The political agents and security personnel inside saw that Feifei was the only beautiful "frail woman" on the monitor, and immediately relaxed their vigilance.

Little did they know that this woman was a femme fatale.

The detective opened the door with a beaming smile, "Your general manager is too kind, it's such a pleasure to have such a beautiful lady like you bring us coffee."

"How could it be troublesome? You work so hard for our safety, it's my honor to bring you coffee."

Feifei's beautiful face always had a charming smile that made people involuntarily let their guard down.

"Coffee should be drunk while it's hot."

She handed the coffee on the tray to the agents and security personnel, and then, as the two men picked up their coffees, she pulled out a pistol from under the tray and, under their terrified gazes, killed them with two muffled bangs.

Click~

The coffee cup fell to the ground and shattered, the two people staring wide-eyed in death.

Feifei fired two more shots to make sure the two were dead, then pulled out her internal walkie-talkie and said, "Rabbit, I've taken care of the monitoring room. Proceed according to plan and don't let anything go wrong."

"Hehe, got it!"

A casual laugh came through the walkie-talkie.

Feifei put down the walkie-talkie, stuffed the dead bodies of the security guards and agents into the metal cabinet, and looked up to see the doctor's brother, Rabbit, leading his gang to kill the security guards and enter the underground garage. They closed the garage door and planted three trigger bombs to prevent anyone from breaking in.
