Liu Baoqiang has always had difficulty coping with Zhou Xingxing's words.
"It's mainly related to the death of Xu Youcai. This guy has been able to establish himself in Hong Kong Island for so many years, so he must be powerful. Now that he dies, many of his younger brothers are clamoring to avenge him.
And the reason why they say they are headless is because these people can’t find out who killed Xu Youcai.”
There is a reason why Zhou Xingxing is so positive.
Liu Baoqiang told him that people from the ICAC were already targeting them. If they couldn't find a way to prove their innocence, the bonuses they had received before would be taken back by the ICAC.
For Zhou Xingxing, when the money is on his card, it naturally belongs to him.
Now that the people from the ICAC want to rob him of his money, it is even more uncomfortable for him than to kill him.
So he immediately initiated contacts and inquired about the current news.
As for why Zhou Xingxing was able to find out this information, this is his own guess.
After all, since someone wants to deal with Lu Zhilian and Liu Baoqiang at the same time, it is naturally because the matter is related to the two of them.
The only cases that Lu Zhilian and Liu Baoqiang worked on together were the Z Foundation and Jockey Club shooting cases.
With the imprisonment of Hu Zhiyong in the Z Foundation case, the rest of the matter has nothing to do with Liu Baoqiang and Lu Zhilian. If the other party really wanted to take revenge, it would definitely not be possible to spend such a high price just to suspend them.
After excluding this case, the only remaining case was naturally the Jockey Club shooting case they handled before.
Although on the surface, the killer in that case had been killed by Zhang Pin, the man behind the scenes was actually not caught.
However, on the night when he killed the killer, Liu Baoqiang also deliberately took away a witness, Li Li. After the other party testified, they all knew that there was a person in Hong Kong who was responsible for receiving some illegal peripheral betting businesses.
The person in charge is an old man named Shen Huashan.
During this period, Liu Baoqiang and Lu Zhilian cooperated for the purpose of finding evidence of Shen Huashan's crime.
Shen Huashan was also aware of this, and the other party also brought in a group of dirty rats from there, which eventually caused quite a stir. As a result, Miao Zhishun is still in trouble.
Although Liu Baoqiang and others also participated in the gunfight that night, because the incident occurred outside their jurisdiction, they had little impact on them.
The main reason why Lu Zhilian and Liu Baoqiang did not act even though they knew that Shen Huashan was the mastermind behind the scenes, the main point is that Hong Kong Island is a society governed by the rule of law, and Shen Huashan is a rich man.
If it were a single condition, either Lu Zhilian or Liu Baoqiang would not only not be able to cooperate harmoniously, but would have been wary of each other, and would have arrested Shen Huashan first.
But the combination of these two conditions gave them a lot of worries.
Shen Huashan has been operating in Hong Kong Island for many years. He is able to dominate the peripheral handicap business, so he is naturally superior in his own right.
Apart from anything else, at least based on Li Li's confession and some flimsy evidence they had, they couldn't even let the news out, let alone arrest Shen Huashan.
Because these evidences cannot directly point to Shen Huashan, at least in front of well-known lawyers in Hong Kong Island, they will certainly not be valid.
For example, Li Li testified that the company she worked for was Hongxin Group, which is a mainland organization and has nothing to do with Shen Huashan.
Coupled with the other party's bad record in the past, it is impossible for the jury and judge to believe what she said.
The reason why Liu Baoqiang and Lu Zhilian persisted in chasing the dirty rat's clues was naturally because they wanted to get some directional and practical evidence from the other party.
Who would have expected that they hadn't taken action yet, and now they were being tricked by the old fox Shen Huashan.
"He must have done it. Twelve million. If you have so much money, just give it to me. I have stopped investigating it a long time ago. Now it can only be turned into stolen money and turned over."
Lu Zhilian didn't pay too much attention to Zhou Xingxing's story, but he was still worried about the fact that he was framed.
He never thought that one day he would be so valuable that it would be worth twelve million just to stop him from investigating a case.
The reason why Lu Zhilian said that the twelve million would not have much impact on him was naturally clear in his heart.
This amount of money was so crude and there was no cover-up. Naturally, the ICAC would not be easily fooled by this kind of investigation.
As the L team investigator who asked him to leave said before, it is impossible to convict him based on this transfer alone.
"What's the use of talking so much? You haven't been suspended yet. You'd better pray that we can deal with each other as soon as possible. Otherwise, if the delay continues, you may not be able to explain clearly."
Liu Baoqiang didn't pay attention to Lu Zhilian's complaints and turned to look at Zhou Xingxing.
"Have you ever found out who Xu Youcai's main supporter is? This guy was so hidden. If he hadn't died suddenly, no one would have thought that he actually occupied at least 30% of the money laundering market in Hong Kong."
After Liu Baoqiang read the information brought by Zhou Xingxing, he quickly discovered the key problem.
According to the police's investigation of Xu Youcai, it was discovered that there were many physical enterprises and stores under his name.
The business of these stores and enterprises has exceeded everyone's expectations. Judging from the tax registration turnover alone, the profits are better than more than half of listed companies.
What is inconsistent with such huge profits is that the actual places where these stores operate, and the number of employees who pay taxes under their names, are not of this scale at all.
Before that, because Xu Youcai had registered through different individuals and used other cover, neither the police nor the tax department noticed this.
It wasn't until the other party died that some of the original store managers wanted to take the money and abscond, while some of Xu Youcai's subordinates also wanted to fish in troubled waters. In the end, there was internal strife between the two parties, and the police finally got hold of the evidence.
"As far as I know, Xu Youcai has had a close relationship with an old society called Guixing over the years. Guixing is responsible for safety issues in most of his business."
"The strange thing is here, for example, Xu Youcai's largest dry cleaning shop, I heard that Guixing also has a stake in it, but on this matter, Xu Youcai's subordinates are jumping up and down, but there is no movement at all from Guixing."
When Zhou Xingxing talked about this matter, he obviously had some doubts.
After all, as far as he knows, when something like this happens, the ones who make the most noise are usually the members of these societies.
"Guixing, why haven't I heard of this club?"
After realizing that his complaints were not responded to by others, Lu Zhilian finally calmed down.
Although he is currently suspended, he obviously doesn't care about anything because he doesn't want to.
You will hear the discussion between Zhou Xingxing and Liu Baoqiang, and he also wants to participate.
But he was good at investigating corruption. When investigating a case like this, he didn't understand the facts of the case. He didn't even understand some of the information given by the two men.
For example, he had never heard of the club called Guixing that the two mentioned.
"Many Hong Kong communities can trace their origins to Hongmen."
"When times changed and the general environment was different, the original large societies began to disband and split. Some people felt that harmony was the most important thing, so they added the word "和" to the prefix. The most famous one is of course He Lian Sheng."
"The other part of them doesn't agree with the ideas of the older generation. They think that if they show off, they will get rich and prosperous, so they will add the word "Xing" to the name of the association. The most famous ones are Hongxing and Dongxing."
"As for this one called Guixing, as far as I know, it was also established by the same group as Hongxing and other societies."
"However, this society has not developed as well as Hongxing Dongxing. Therefore, although it has been established on Hong Kong Island for a long time, its territory is not large."
"Of course, although the territory is not large, due to its seniority and the fact that the founder of Guixing is still there, it is somewhat thin on the road."
Upon hearing Lu Zhilian's inquiry, Liu Baoqiang explained to him.
"I see. In that case, Xu Youcai should be Guixing's card, right? Then why is there no movement at all from Guixing when something happens to him?"
Liu Baoqiang has been working in the anti-gangster group in Wan Chai for so long, and he has been addicted to gambling for a while, so he knows a lot about Hong Kong's top clubs.
"The more this happens, it means Guixing must know something. Let's go, if we have time, we can go meet their talker."
Sea Lobby.
A dessert shop with a very contemporary name.
"Uncle, long time no see."
When Liu Baoqiang and the other two entered, the place was almost full of people. However, there was no sugar water placed in front of these people's tables, and judging from their dress, they did not look like serious customers consuming sugar water.
When they saw Liu Baoqiang and others, these people stood up one by one with evil eyes.
However, Liu Baoqiang turned a blind eye to the fierce looks of these people. Instead, he looked directly at an old man with gray hair in the middle of the crowd, and then greeted him with a smile.
The white-haired old man is naturally the talker and founder of Guixing.
His name carries Gui Zi, so when he split off and became independent, he named the association Gui Xing.
Hearing Liu Baoqiang's shouting, Uncle Gui looked up and saw Liu Baoqiang. He was not surprised. The two were obviously familiar with each other.
As Uncle Gui raised his hand, the person who had stood up in the store sat down again.
Liu Baoqiang turned a blind eye to this scene. He made a look at Lu Zhilian and Zhou Xingxing, and then walked towards Uncle Gui.
"Wow, are you not afraid of diabetes if you eat something so sweet?"
Liu Baoqiang took the initiative to sit next to his uncle, who was drinking a bowl of sweet water and looking at the thick layer of condensed milk on it. Liu Baoqiang was not in a hurry to explain his purpose, but wanted to talk about home affairs first.
But Uncle Gui didn't have such a good attitude toward Liu Baoqiang.
He scooped up a full spoonful of condensed milk, put it directly into his mouth, and then said without changing his expression: "What are you afraid of? I'm over eighty. Eat less once."
Hearing Uncle Gui's words, Zhou Xingxing couldn't help himself.
"Xu Youcai is dead. You don't look sad at all. You are so open-minded. How come I heard that he was so kind to you and brought all the good things to your house during the holidays? Compared to you abroad.
My son must be kind to you."
After hearing Zhou Xingxing's words, Uncle Gui couldn't help but stop drinking the sweet water, but soon he continued to scoop up the sweet water and put it into his mouth with a normal expression.
"Traffic accidents are something no one wants."
Uncle Gui spoke calmly, but the sugar water that was brought to his mouth shook, and some of the sugar water spilled onto the table.
"Besides, what about the traffic accident? Is it fun to lie to yourself? Tell me, who did it?"
Liu Baoqiang saw that Zhou Xingxing was getting straight to the point, so he simply stopped pretending and asked directly about his purpose.
Boom——
"Hey, it's your police's duty to investigate cases. The notification I received was about a traffic accident. Can you all agree on the situation and then come out and notify the victim's family?"
This time, Uncle Gui threw away the spoon and refused to wipe the sugar water from his mouth.
"Xu Youcai died so tragically. You acted so nonchalantly and were still in the mood to drink sugar water. Now you have the nerve to call yourself his family member. It's a bit too shameless."
Lu Zhilian caught the loophole in Gui Shu's words and intervened.
"I think the person who did it must be too aggressive. I can't afford to offend him as a bad old man, so naturally I can only pretend that he doesn't know what to do."
Zhou Xingxing looked at Uncle Gui with disdain.
"Xu Youcai is also a fool. He is a man who comes out to fool around. He is so filial and loyal. He has promised you a share of any business. It's a pity. Look at him now. He died in such a miserable way. He didn't even leave his body behind. Maybe he is still alive.
Burned alive."
Liu Baoqiang on the side also followed suit and directly took out the photo where Xu Youcai's body was found and placed it on the table.
Clang——
When he saw Xu Youcai's unrecognizable body, Uncle Gui swept his hands and swept the sugar water on the table to the ground.
"Oh, I was eating, and now I have no appetite."
The sugar water cup fell to the ground and smashed into pieces.
A waiter next to me immediately brought a pot of tea with a hint of discernment, and then lowered his head to clean up the broken pieces on the floor.
"I'm still in the mood to drink tea. Xu Youcai is determined to die with his eyes closed."
Zhou Xingxing saw that the other party was going to get the tea cup, so he spoke in a sinister tone.
Bang——
Upon hearing his words, Uncle Gui slammed the table and sighed.
"Now, I heard, I heard, I don't know the source of the news. Recently, a big fisherman came to Hong Kong Island. He just came back from the Netherlands. He is powerful and ruthless. I heard that the other party is very aggressive towards Ah Cai.
I’m a little interested in my business.”
In one sentence, Uncle Gui heard several words, obviously trying to distance himself from the relationship.
"As for the details, I really don't know anything. But after Ah Cai's death, a lot of business was taken over by other parties, especially the customers. Even I didn't know about these account books. Ah Cai used to have a good look at them.
Tight."
"But actually, it doesn't matter to me. I'm over eighty. If I can only eat a bowl of dessert every day, I'm satisfied. As for the grievances and grievances in the world, I stopped getting involved many years ago. Hey."
After Uncle Gui finished speaking, he stopped drinking tea, stood up and walked towards the back kitchen of the dessert shop.
Seeing him leaving, Liu Baoqiang and others didn't say anything this time.
The three of them looked at each other, then stood up and left in unison. ()
