Hong Kong variety show: I wanted to be a lawyer, but I became a big shot.

Sham Shui Po, Changsha, inside a hidden industrial building.

The camel was taken into a safe house.

The house was small, with simple furniture, and all the windows were covered with blackout cloth. A single incandescent bulb hung from the ceiling, casting a stark white light.

After Black Phoenix's men dropped him off, they left, leaving only two people guarding the door.

The camel sat in a corner of the sofa, its face ashen and lips pale.

His suit jacket was nowhere to be found, his shirt was covered in dust and sweat stains, and he looked like he had just crawled out of a sewer.

Half an hour later, the door opened.

Shui Ling walked in.

She wore a dark long trench coat, a string of jade prayer beads around her neck, and black stilettos. She swayed her hips as she walked to the camel, her face serene.

But the camel knew in its heart that the calmer and more serene the water was, the more terrifying it was.

He stood up instinctively, his voice slightly weak.

"Marshal Shui Ling... about tonight..."

Snapped!

A loud, powerful slap landed across his face.

Shui Ling's hands looked soft and delicate, but when she slapped someone, she had tremendous force. One slap made the camel stagger two steps to the side, and blood immediately seeped from the corner of its mouth.

"you!!!"

The camel was both surprised and angry. It covered its face and stared at Shui Ling with wide eyes.

Shui Ling slightly raised her head, looking at him with icy eyes.

Do you know why I hit you?

The camel opened its mouth, as if to get angry, but when it met Shui Ling's gaze, it swallowed its words back.

He took a few breaths, finally lowered his eyes, and whispered:

"Know......"

Tell me about it.

Shui Ling walked over and sat down opposite him, crossed her legs, and looked at him as if interrogating a criminal.

The camel slowly sat back on the sofa, its head drooping, its voice hoarse.

"Tonight... I'm picking up a shipment at the Kwun Tong pier."

"What goods?"

"Flour".

He paused, then continued:

"Alan was originally supposed to pick them up, but the police had already spotted them. There were ambushes all around the dock, and Alan and his men were surrounded as soon as they went in."

"Did Young and Dangerous get arrested?"

"Yeah, and a few underlings too."

"And you? How did you get away?"

"When I realized something was wrong, I drove off... The police chased me for a while, but I took several detours before I finally shook them off."

"So you panicked?"

"You want to grab the high-explosive items and firearms, take out the cops and Allen who's arresting people, and then run away?"

The camel's face flushed red and then turned pale after his secret was exposed, but he finally nodded.

"I'm afraid Alan won't be able to withstand the Great Memory Restoration Technique and will implicate me too... If the police find out about Tung Sing, it's not a big deal if I'm finished... I'm just afraid of implicating the entire gang."

"Hmph! And then what? Where are you planning to run off to?"

The camel paused for a moment, then lowered its voice.

"Windmill Country..."

Shui Ling leaned back on the sofa, closed her eyes, and took a deep breath.

"Camel, you are the leader of Dongxing."

"But look at yourself now, you don't look like a boss at all!"

"When something happens, he thinks of killing someone to cover it up, and then running away alone."

"Have you ever thought about the tens of thousands of brothers in Tung Sing who still need to eat?"

"Have you ever considered what you, the boss, were doing tonight while we were fighting tooth and nail with Sun Kee in Tsim Sha Tsui, Causeway Bay, and Yau Ma Tei?"

"I'm very disappointed in you..."

The camel clenched its fists tightly, its chest heaved violently, and its whole body trembled violently with shame.

"I……"

"What do you mean, 'you'?"

"If it weren't for Black Phoenix's men acting quickly, you would already be cornered by the police at the dock."

"How are you going to explain all those boxes of flour to the judge then?"

The camel was speechless.

Shui Ling stood up, walked to the window, and turned her back to him.

"From now on, you will stay here and are not allowed to go anywhere."

"Tell the guy outside what you need, and he'll have someone bring it over."

"You'd better not do anything reckless until I get back."

She turned her head and glanced at the camel.

"Especially, don't do anything unnecessary, or I'll cripple your arms and legs and send you to Windmill Country to live as a rich man!"

That one glance sent chills down the camel's spine.

He nodded and didn't say anything more.

Shui Ling stepped out of the safe house, where Hei Feng was waiting in the corridor.

"Go and find out who tipped off the police about what happened at Kwun Tong Pier tonight."

"Also, ask Yin Feng about the current situation of Gu Huolun and the others."

Black Phoenix nodded.

"Yes, Marshal Dalu!"

......

Police Headquarters, O-Division Interrogation Room.

Crowd and his other henchmen were detained separately.

Gu Huolun sat in the chair, his hands still cuffed, staring blankly at the ground.

He wasn't too unlucky; he was shot while retreating, but the bullet only grazed his shoulder and didn't hit the bone. It just burned a patch of flesh, and he was in so much pain that he broke out in a cold sweat.

His mind is a complete mess right now.

This incident tonight has blown up too much. They were illegally transporting flour, resisting arrest with weapons, and even fired shots.

If he's convicted of multiple crimes, he could be sentenced to at least ten years in prison.

But he knew that the most dangerous thing wasn't any of that...

But the leader and the camel are still outside. If the gang decides that he will talk nonsense, he might die in detention before even going to court.

Just as I was lost in thought, the iron gate outside rattled.

"Greek, your lawyer is here."

A policeman opened the door and led him to the visiting room.

Yin Feng was already sitting there.

She was dressed in a dark suit, her hair was tied up, and she wore gold-rimmed glasses, giving her an air of shrewd aloofness.

When Gu Huolun saw her, he was initially delighted, but then became frightened.

Yin Feng gestured for him to sit down, then lowered her voice:

"Alan, everyone knows what happened tonight."

"Marshal Dalu is very angry."

Gu Huolun's Adam's apple bobbed, his voice dry.

"Yinfeng, I... I didn't expect it to turn out like this..."

"It's pointless to say these things now."

Yin Feng interrupted him, her tone not harsh, but her words leaving no room for argument.

"I will follow up on your case."

"You only need to remember one thing..."

"No matter how severely the police torture you, you must play dumb."

"But they arrested people on the spot, and there's evidence..."

"So your current task is to stall for time until 9 a.m. tomorrow."

Yin Feng pushed up her glasses and stared at him coldly.

"I'll come again tomorrow morning. If things don't work out by then, you'll have to take full responsibility!"

"The gang will find a way to bribe the judge to reduce your sentence. You can stay in there for a few years, but when you come out, the gang's white paper fan position will still be reserved for you."

"I will even personally deliver the resettlement allowance the community gives you to your family!"

Gu Huolun remained silent.

He knew he had no choice at all.

Yin Feng's words just now implied that her family members were still outside.

Thinking of Shui Ling's methods, a chill ran down his spine.

"I...I understand."

He lowered his head, his voice even hoarser.

"Silver Phoenix, please tell Marshal Dalu that I, Gu Huolun, am not a traitor, and I will not say a word tonight."

Yin Feng nodded slightly, her tone softening somewhat.

"That's right, the club won't mistreat its own people."

She stood up, and before leaving, added one more sentence:

"If the final verdict is reached, your family and community will take care of you."

Gu Huolun's eyes welled up with tears, and he lowered his head without saying a word.

When Yin Feng left the police station with her legal team, it was almost 2:30 a.m.

She stretched, quickly got into the car, picked up her cell phone, and dialed Shui Ling's number.

......

Meanwhile, at the villa in Repulse Bay.

Lin Bei sat on the terrace, holding a cup of coffee in his hand.

In front of him was a map of Hong Kong Island, with several places circled in red.

He had already guessed that Tung Sing would acquire three territories last night.

Even without Lao Xu's new work, Shui Ling's progress cannot be stopped.

He was mentally calculating his next move.
