After ten years undercover, I'm giving up.

Not long after, Johnny's men delivered the message.

"Boss, there are two groups of people who want to buy goods from us now."

"On one side is Wu Shaoxiong."

"On the other side, his name is Hong Jipeng."

……

West Kowloon Police Station.

Inside the office of the head of the serious crimes unit.

Ma Zhichao was sitting behind his desk, looking through several documents that Liang Xiaorou had just brought in.

Board Members and Shareholding Structure of Mingxin Hospital

Interior architectural floor plan of Mingxin Hospital

Background Information on Mingxin Hospital

Recent Personnel Transfer Records of the West Kowloon Police Station

The first set of equity documents clearly stated that Johnny Wang indeed held shares in Mingxin Hospital.

The fourth transfer record is the personnel list that the previous head of the Major Crimes Unit took with him when he left.

The former team leader's name was Peng Xinjian.

He was just transferred to the Sham Shui Po District Police Station, one of the branches under the West Kowloon Police Department, yesterday, to serve as Deputy Commissioner.

Before leaving, he also took a few people with him.

Ma Zhichao recognized two of the names at a glance.

Cheng Silin.

Yuan Haoyun.

"Isn't this the same team behind 'Hard Boiled'?"

Ma Zhichao raised an eyebrow slightly, and an idea immediately popped into his mind.

He picked up the phone on the table and dialed Liang Xiaorou directly.

"Xiaorou, when Superintendent Peng was transferred, did he leave his computer in his office?"

Liang Xiaorou quickly replied, "Inspector Ma, when Commander Peng left, he took the computer with him."

"Okay, I understand."

Ma Zhichao hung up the phone, a slow smile creeping onto his lips.

Clearly, Peng Xinjian did not want him to know about the existence of the undercover agent, A Lang.

Judging from this, the other party most likely still wants to continue pursuing Uncle Hai and Johnny Wang's arms line.

As for a formidable general like Yuan Haoyun, Superintendent Peng also had no intention of keeping him.

Why wasn't Chan Ka-kui taken away with them?

Either it's because Chan Ka-kui is too much of a troublemaker, or Peng Yan-kin doesn't want to take on this hot potato.

Either Chen Jiaju has Raymond and Uncle Biao behind him, so Peng Xinjian can't lead him even if he wants to.

Ma Zhichao continued flipping through the documents on the table, his gaze quickly returning to the files from Mingxin Hospital.

"The next step is to investigate the morgue at Mingxin Hospital."

"First, we need to confirm whether that place is indeed where Johnny's Island is hiding weapons."

To investigate such a place, you need to find someone who is both bold and meticulous.

"Xiao Rou".

Ma Zhichao dialed the phone again.

Liang Xiaorou immediately answered, "Officer Ma, what are your orders?"

Ma Zhichao said, "Check if any bodies from recent cases have been sent to Mingxin Hospital."

Liang Xiaorou was taken aback: "Huh?"

"Do as instructed."

"Yes, sir!"

……

……

the other side.

The Peninsula Hotel.

Edmund, the foreign director of the West Kowloon Headquarters, was having lunch with his deputy director, Philippe.

Steak, pasta, salad.

The food on the table was beautifully presented, clearly indicating it was expensive.

The two ate slowly while chatting.

The person they were talking about at that moment was Ma Zhichao.

Edmund gently swirled the red wine in his glass, his tone tinged with disdain: "This Ma Zhichao, he's got some nerve."

"He just got promoted and he dares to offend both Director Cai and Director Smith at the same time."

Philip smiled and said, "In my opinion, he probably didn't get his position through normal means. He must have used the evidence he had to force his superiors to make concessions."

"Young people are always so ignorant of the rules."

"They even dare to talk back to their superiors."

Edmund and Philip exchanged a glance, and a meaningful smile appeared on their faces at the same time.

Just last night, they received hints from senior police officials.

The meaning is very clear.

Keep Ma Zhichao in check.

So this morning, Chief Edmund didn't even go to the police station.

No one was arranged to greet Ma Zhichao at the door.

This is actually a statement to the entire West Kowloon Police Station.

I don't like this new guy, Ma Zhichao.

Once Commissioner Edmund makes his stance clear, Ma Chi-chiu's life within the West Kowloon Police Station will naturally become less comfortable.

Edmund picked up his glass, watching the wine swirl gently inside, and asked with a smile, "Philip, how long do you think this Inspector Ma can last?"

"When will they finally slink out of West Kowloon in disgrace?"

Philip smiled faintly: "Young people are bound to have high aspirations."

"But as time goes on, if the case remains unsolved and his prestige cannot be established, his subordinates will naturally realize that he is just an empty shell."

"At that point, everyone in the police station will gradually ostracize him."

"Given his personality, he probably won't last long."

After saying that, Philip casually added, "Besides, does he really have the ability to solve major cases?"

"Hahaha!"

The two of them burst into laughter.

Neither Edmund nor Philip believed that a gangster who had been lurking in the underworld for ten years could have any real ability to solve cases.

experience?

No.

Foundation?

No.

Management skills?

No, there isn't.

How did he solve the case?

Should I bang my head against it?

So at this moment, the two of them even felt a little hopeful.

They were waiting to see Ma Chi-chiu isolated by the West Kowloon Police Station and then make a pathetic exit.

……

……

in the afternoon.

In the office of the head of the serious crimes unit.

After Ma Zhichao finalized the general direction of the Johnny Wang project, he began to openly slack off.

Minesweeper on PC, start!

[Emotional value from Chen Jiaju: +1.]

[Jin Da Zui's emotional value +2.]

[Wen Jianren's emotional value +11.]

Ma Zhichao: "???"

What's going on with Wen Jianren?

Is the emotional value being given so obviously?

It seems this guy has a lot of grudges against him.

Time flies, and it's almost time to leave work.

Ma Zhichao decisively shut down his computer, dusted himself off, and left the police station.

He had barely stepped out of the Major Crimes Unit when the group of people in the office area immediately surrounded Liang Xiaorou, the newly appointed secretary to the unit leader.

"Xiao Rou, what did Officer Ma do today?"

A group of people had eyes that gleamed like gossip reporters.

Liang Xiaorou said helplessly, "Brothers, I have to keep this a secret for Inspector Ma."

"but……"

After thinking for a moment, she revealed a little: "Inspector Ma is probably investigating a major case."

"A major case?"

"Is Inspector Ma going to start taking action so soon?"

"Isn't that a bit too hasty?"

"Is he any good? Didn't he have little experience in handling cases before?" Jin Dazui couldn't help but mutter.

Liang Xiaorou immediately glared at him: "Fine, Jin Dazui, you dare to talk bad about Ma Sir behind his back, I'm going to report you."

"No, no, no!"

Jin Dazui was so frightened that he almost raised his hand to slap himself.

"I'm sorry, I'll buy you milk tea!"

That mouth of hers.

Why is it that he has no self-control in front of Liang Xiaorou?

Chan Ka-kui immediately chimed in from the side, "We all heard that, if you're going to invite someone, invite them all!"

The other officers joined in the laughter and joking.

"That's right, please invite them all!"

"If you don't invite us, we'll all report you!"

Jin Dazui: "..."

Grass!

These old guys.

I wonder how much gossip you all said about Inspector Ma behind his back today.

Now look at them, all pretending to be law-abiding citizens!

Family members, does anyone understand?

……

Ma Zhichao had just left the police station when he received a message from Hong Jipeng.

The arms deal with Johnny's Island has been scheduled for three days from now.

"Three days later..."

Ma Zhichao's lips curled up slightly.

A major arms trafficking case was solved in three days.

That makes perfect sense, doesn't it?

After thinking for a moment, he sent another message to Hong Jipeng.

Ask the other party to inquire about Wu Shaoxiong's whereabouts.

Let's see if there's a chance to catch this former Inspector Wu as well.

After sending the text message, Ma Zhichao stopped by the flower shop on his way.

I bought a bouquet of roses.

He then drove to ATV (Asia Television).

Go find Fang Siwei.

To be honest, he was indeed a little tempted.

……

Downstairs from Asia Television.

Fang Siwei had just finished get off work and walked out of the building.

Today she wore a floral dress, the hem of which just reached her knees, revealing a pair of fair and shapely calves.

She had just stepped out when she heard several colleagues around her suddenly start whispering among themselves.

"Hey, isn't that Ma Zhichao?"

"Is that the one who went undercover at Han Chen Group before?"

"He's not an undercover agent anymore; he's a senior superintendent now."

"He's holding roses in his hand. Who is he looking for?"

"So handsome! He's so cool and stylish!"

"I think he's even more handsome than Anthony Wong and Chow Yun-fat!"

Fang Siwei's heart skipped a beat when he heard his colleagues excitedly looking outside to see what was going on.

"Ma Zhichao?"

She instinctively looked towards the side of the road.

really.

Ma Zhichao was leaning against a car, holding a bouquet of beautiful roses in his hands, smiling and waving at her.

"Xiao Wei".

The moment Fang Siwei saw him, her first reaction was to turn around and walk in the other direction.

"Don't go!"

Ma Zhichao immediately chased after her and blocked her path in a few steps.

"Get out of the way!"

Fang Siwei glared at him fiercely.

Last time on Lamma Island, she was completely bewildered by Ma Zhichao's "affectionate offensive".

For the next day or two, she really couldn't let go of this man.

But after calming down these past few days, she felt more and more that something was wrong.

I wasn't actually moved at all.

He clearly got a huge advantage over us!
