Reborn in 1970, I thrived in Hong Kong.

The bad premonitions of "Flour" Ma, Yan Tong, and others came true one by one after they borrowed Lei Luo's house phone to call home:

Damn it, all the money they've made over the years by committing the heinous crime of having sons born without an anus has vanished just like Rello's Mane!

This caused the Ma brothers, Limpy Hao, Yan Tong and others, who were originally gloating over Lei Luo's money being stolen, to become anxious and angry!

This is money they've earned over many years. Regardless of whether the money is clean or not, going from being a millionaire with tens or hundreds of millions in cash to being back to square one overnight is something no one can accept.

Therefore, without Lei Luo needing to speak, the on-site case analysis immediately began:

……

Lan Jiang:

"The fact that they were able to steal everyone's money at the same time means it was definitely a group crime, and a large one at that! We must pay close attention to the various theft gangs in Hong Kong!"

Yan Tong:

"You're right, but don't forget one thing: when it comes to digging tunnels, no one can compare to those bastards in Kowloon Walled City. They're better at digging tunnels than rats!"

……

Lei Luo:

"Ah Hao, tell Kowloon Walled City that I came to the basement a week ago, no, five days ago, and the things were still there. Tell them to give me a list of people who have left Kowloon Walled City in the past four days!"

Tell them that if they dare to cheat, I'll raze their Kowloon Walled City to the ground!

After saying that, Lei Luo shook his head, rubbed his temples with his right thumb and middle finger, and sighed.

"Alas, what a pity. Everyone considered that this money could not be exposed to the light of day, so they all exchanged it for old bills with non-consecutive serial numbers. Otherwise, as soon as the other party dared to take out the money to spend, we could immediately solve the case and recover our money."

Yan Tong and the others shook their heads with bitter smiles. They had exchanged all their illicit money for old banknotes with non-consecutive serial numbers so that it would be easier for them to spend it. Who knew that it would make it easier for the people who stole their money to spend it?

Just then, the short, chubby piglet who had crawled into the tunnel to investigate emerged from the tunnel entrance:

"Brother Luo, there's no way to go past the tunnel after going about twenty meters in. The other side collapsed the tunnel when they left."

Also, the earth blocking the tunnel is leaking water, presumably because the other side poured water into the tunnel.

Upon hearing this, Lan Jiang's eyes immediately lit up:

"Quickly, get someone to check the water meters of nearby residents! See who has been using significantly more water these past few days!"

Upon hearing this, Lei Luo and the others immediately realized what was going on.

After discussing it, Lei Luo finally decided that everyone should split up and take action. The Ma brothers, Yan Tong, and others should go home first, while everyone else would dig deeper into the case and gather all their clues with him.

Just as everyone was preparing to leave Lei Luo's house and split up, Lei Luo received calls from several high-ranking British officers in the Hong Kong Police Force, which made things even more serious!

Ten minutes later, the retired Lei Luo was temporarily appointed by the British as the chief commander of this major case. Because it was to investigate the stolen and illicit proceeds of corruption and bribery, the case had to be codenamed "Hong Kong 2.24 Case".

Starting that day, both the Hong Kong underworld and legitimate organizations set up checkpoints throughout Hong Kong for three consecutive days, conducting a city-wide search!

However, it was all for naught. Although Lei Luo and his group found out where the tunnel entrance was, all the people who rented the buildings above the tunnel entrance had been dead for several years, and they had rented them from people who had also passed away many times.

As for the first "dead man" who rented the building above the tunnel entrance from those landlords, Lei Luo and others found out that it was the same person named Dong Zhiwei, who had been dead for two years. It was obvious that someone was impersonating him.

As for what kind of transportation the other party used to transport so much money, only the tire tracks of a truck were found near the tunnel entrance, and nothing else was found.

At this point, all leads to the case were exhausted, and the February 2.24th case became an unsolved mystery.

In the blink of an eye, it's already March 18th.

This was the day of the University of Hong Kong's independent admissions exam.

Early in the morning, just as dawn was breaking, Brigitte Lin rushed over and checked Li Huai-ren's exam documents, stationery, and other necessities several times, completely transforming into a devoted wife hoping her husband would succeed.

She even considered asking for leave from school to accompany Li Huai-ren to the University of Hong Kong for his exams, but Li Huai-ren dissuaded her.

"If you come with me to the University of Hong Kong for my exam, what if I get distracted just thinking about you waiting for me outside the exam hall?"

Upon hearing this, Brigitte Lin immediately gave up.

At six o'clock in the morning, Li Huai-ren, who had already eaten breakfast, bid farewell to Lin Qingxia, Deng Lijun, and Ye San Niang, who were seeing him off at the villa gate, and drove to the University of Hong Kong in the Western District of Hong Kong Island to participate in this year's entrance examination.

Li Huai-ren drove to the Star Ferry Pier and was queuing to board the ferry when he suddenly heard someone knocking on the left window of his Mercedes. He turned around and was immediately stunned:

The person knocking on the car window was none other than Bai Suzhen, Zhao Yazhi! At this moment, she was covered in sweat and panting heavily.

Li Huai-ren quickly rolled down the left window.

Zhao Yazhi immediately poked her head in, handing over a card and a stack of Hong Kong dollars:

"You gave me the wrong card before the New Year. I just saw your car at the bus stop ahead and came over to return the card and money to you!"

By the way, I wish you success in getting into the University of Hong Kong!

Li Huai-ren was taken aback:

How did you know I was taking an exam at the University of Hong Kong today?

Zhao Yazhi blushed and stammered:

"I... I overheard it from someone. Well, Qingxia asked Director Li for leave yesterday, and I... I accidentally overheard it."

Seeing that the cars in front of him had started moving, and noticing that Zhao Yazhi was about to throw her Phoenix Plaza free pass and money onto the passenger seat, Li Huai-ren immediately said to her:

"Come over here, I have something to tell you."

Zhao Yazhi originally intended to throw the card and money onto the passenger seat, but when he called her over, she thought it would be better to hand them over to him personally, so she withdrew her hand holding the card and money and walked around from the back of the car.

Just as she circled around to the right side of the Mercedes, Li Huai-ren suddenly leaned out and shouted at her:

"I'll leave the card with you. If I need anything in the future, you can buy it for me."

After saying that, he stepped on the gas, and the Mercedes-Benz immediately sped off.

Zhao Ya was taken aback:

"What does he mean by saying that? He'll leave the card with me and buy whatever he wants for him?"

"Tch, I'm not your wife, why should I keep your card safe or buy you things?"

Thinking about this, she suddenly understood something, her eyes narrowed into crescent shapes, full of smiles!

Looking up at Li Huai-ren's car as it boarded the ferry, Zhao Ya-zhi's smile deepened. Finally, she couldn't hold back any longer and covered her mouth, laughing out loud.

"Woo-woo-woo," the ferry's whistle sounded.

Suddenly, Li Huai-ren appeared on the ferry deck. He waved to Zhao Ya-zhi, then cupped his hands to his mouth and shouted:

"Ah Zhi, let's go back quickly. The sun is a bit strong today. I don't want to get a tan!"

Zhao Yazhi smiled sweetly.

Her smile was so happy, so radiant, so carefree.

At this moment, the gloom between her brows had completely dissipated, and she was beaming with joy.
