Reborn in 1993, Dark Sea

"In my understanding, Captain Wang is a person who appears loyal on the surface but is cunning on the inside! You also hate those rules and regulations, but due to your position, you have to abide by them."

You must also make sure that everyone around you follows it.

Actually, that's not what you really think, am I right?

"You're wrong, I'm a law-abiding citizen!"

"Give me a break! Do you think I don't know you? You dare say you've never done anything illegal? What nonsense are you spouting? Let's not even talk about the distant past. Didn't you ask me to have someone beat up that playboy, the eldest son of the Liu family, the other day? What? Have you selectively forgotten?"

"Alright, enough of that. We're running out of time. Let's get back to the main topic. Do you have anything to report to me? How's the investigation going?"

"Stop it! We were just getting into the conversation, and you pulled this stunt again. What a spoilsport!" Kite rolled her eyes and slumped back onto the sofa.

"There's nothing worth reporting lately. Things are peaceful in Haidong Province, but I've heard that things are quite turbulent in Haixi Province. It's said that a giant Buddha has appeared in the sea, and the light it emits can cover the entire Haixi region. As long as you burn incense and kowtow to it, you can be safe and sound."

"What do you mean?" Wang Tiejun frowned.

"What I mean is that recently a person or organization called Hai Foye has appeared in Haixi Province. This organization is very powerful and has established an unshakeable position in the underworld in a very short time."

It is estimated that this organization has now almost completely taken control of the entire drug trafficking network in Haixi Province.

"Damn it, we haven't even seen the Sea Hawk yet, and now this Sea Buddha has appeared!"

"Yes, that's why we have to work even harder! ...Any other news?"

"That's all. You asked me to investigate Guo Xiangshui's secret network of connections. I tried, but it was very difficult. The other party is quite vigilant. I was afraid that if I continued to investigate, something bad would happen, so I stopped."

All the information I found is here; go back and study it at your leisure!

The kite tossed a crumpled cigarette box to Wang Tiejun. Wang Tiejun took it but didn't open it immediately. Instead, he nodded and stuffed it into his pocket.

"You did the right thing. Guo Xiangshui's lead was hard-won, and we must not easily alarm them."

Okay, if there's nothing else, let's call it a day. You really like sneakers, right? I bought you a pair; see if you like them.

As Wang Tiejun spoke, he handed a shoebox to Fengzheng.

"Okay! Let me see!" Kite took the shoebox, opened it, and his eyes lit up.

"Wow! Not bad! It's even my brother's! But Captain, don't buy these designer brands anymore. Your salary isn't even enough to buy a few pairs of shoes. Save it!"

"Isn't it because you like it?"

"Captain, you might be mistaken. What I like isn't the shoes, but the shoelaces," Kite said as she tried on her foot.

"What do you mean? Shoelaces?"

"Yes, shoes need laces to stay in place. If the shoes stay in place, they won't fall off easily when you run, which increases your chances of escaping."

So, you really don't need any designer brands; as long as the shoelaces are tied tightly enough, that's fine.

Kite's words stung Wang Tiejun's heart. One can only imagine what kind of life Kite has been living all these years!

Wang Tiejun then noticed that the shoes Fengzheng wore were always lace-up; he had never seen him wear slippers, not even once!

"Thanks anyway, it's great, it fits perfectly!" Kite said after standing up and stomping her feet.

The kite's shoelaces were indeed tied very tightly, so tightly that it was heartbreaking to see.

"I'm sorry, it's my fault!" Wang Tiejun gritted his teeth and lowered his head.

"Captain Wang, what's wrong with you today? Why are you so sentimental? This isn't like you. But thank you anyway for talking to me for so long today."

If you didn't come and chat with me every now and then, I think I would have gone crazy long ago.

"sorry……"

"Please don't be like this, my dear Captain Wang. While your encouragement was important in what I did, the main reason wasn't because of you, but because of my own beliefs."

Kite smiled and said, "Besides, I finally see some hope today. That child you mentioned might be the one who can help me escape this misery sooner."

This inhuman, ghostly existence might be coming to an end soon!

"You tell me, with all these merits I've accumulated, if I went back to the police force, wouldn't I be able to become a captain, dangdang? Haha!"

"That's for sure. I wouldn't have any problem giving you my captaincy."

"Come on, I can't be your team leader! Investigating cases is one thing, but having to deal with those boring superiors all the time. Forget it, I can't do this!"

"Where are you talking about boring leaders? You're not referring to Zhou Zhengguo, are you? Old Zhou isn't like that; you don't really know him."

"I'm not referring to anyone in particular, just generally, do you understand? Alright, it's almost time, let's go, I need to go back too, people will get suspicious if I disappear for too long."

"Yes, we can't linger here any longer. I'll leave now. I'll go first; there are two drug addicts on the sixth floor of this building. I'll go over and take care of them. You should use this time to leave quickly."

"Understood. Be careful, Captain Wang."

"Stop thinking about me all the time, you're the one who needs to be careful!" Wang Tiejun said, then stood up and walked towards the door.

"Hey Captain Wang, wait a minute!" Just as Wang Tiejun reached the door, Fengzheng suddenly called out to him.

"What's wrong? Is there anything else?"

"I'm serious, let's stop making things difficult for that child. Whether he caused the explosion or not is irrelevant; what matters is the outcome!"

The First Prison must be in complete chaos right now because of this incident. Those demons and monsters hiding in the shadows are probably trembling with fear!

That's enough!

This kid is something else! He killed several birds with one stone!

In doing this, resolving the crisis brought about by Li Yong and Ma Xiaowei was merely a side effect.

More importantly, those behind the scenes must have had their plans completely disrupted by this move, leaving them in a state of chaos and unable to deal with him in the short term.

In addition, he can also establish an unbreakable and unquestionable identity for himself in the underworld.

Now, who would dare doubt that he's a police informant or an undercover agent? If you hadn't told me all this, I wouldn't have believed it!

Therefore, he is a genius!

Captain Wang, you are a talent scout. What you need to do is not to stifle a genius, but to provide him with a stage that is big enough and free enough!

That's what you should be doing.

Moreover, this incident didn't harm any other innocent people, right? So I really admire this kid!

Didn't you say that when doing good, we should judge by the actions, not the intentions; when doing evil, we should judge by the intentions, not the actions?

As long as the child's actions lead to a good outcome, what does it matter how they achieve it?

That's what I think.

"Did I say that?" Wang Tiejun looked up at the roof, and after a moment he nodded. "I think I did say something like that, but you seem to have reversed my words! Evil is judged by its actions, not its intentions!"

"Does being positive or negative really matter?"

"Isn't it important?"

Does it matter?

Wang Tiejun stood at the door, staring at the kite for a long time, before finally sighing and waving his hand: "I'm not arguing with you anymore, I'm leaving! You're starting to talk like him more and more!"

"You people still call me Captain Wang, just like him? Is this really necessary?"

"Why does he call you that too?"

What do you think?

"Hehe, that's great! I'm actually becoming more and more interested in him now. I think we get along really well!"

"Sure, you might see him soon. I estimate he'll be out in about six months."

"Six months? Didn't they say there was still a year left?"

"Hmph, kid, just you wait and see!" After saying that, Wang Tiejun stood at the door, listened carefully to the sounds outside, opened the door, and slipped out.

Watching the door close gently, Kite stroked his chin thoughtfully.

"Kid... this kid must be An Xiaohai... This guy's been making waves in the underworld lately! He even saved Third Brother's life. He might be able to stand on equal footing with me when he gets out..."

Damn it, comparing yourself to others is just awful! I should have started from the First Prison too...

Shenhai City No. 1 Prison

The explosion site has been sealed off, and officers from the Criminal Investigation Division of the Shenhai City Public Security Bureau are carefully examining the scene.

The leader was actually a woman, none other than Cao Yingying, the renowned and resilient policewoman of Shenhai City and the captain of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the Shenhai City Public Security Bureau.

Standing next to Cao Yingying was Yang Yuanbing, who looked completely at ease. In the crowd behind them was a man wearing a trench coat and brown sunglasses.

The man didn't say a word from beginning to end and blended in inconspicuously into the crowd. He was playing with a Z brand lighter in his hand, which made a soft "ding" sound every time the lid was opened.

However, the noise at the scene was so loud that no one noticed.
