Chen Zhichao, Lan Gang and Han Sen were sitting together drinking tea.
They put in a lot of effort tonight, helping Ding Yongqiang conquer the Kowloon Walled City in one fell swoop. It's almost eleven o'clock now.
The three of them had ups and downs in their minds, so they met here to drink tea after leaving the walled city.
"To be honest, I didn't expect that the attack on the walled city tonight would be so smooth." Lan Gang said, "I thought I would have to fire a few shots and lose some troops or something..."
"Yeah, I didn't expect it to go so smoothly." Han Sen, who has always been taciturn, picked up the tea cup and took a sip and said, "As the saying goes, people move together. It seems that our police's concerted action this time scared the other party."
"I don't think so." Chen Zhichao smoked a cigar and said, "Tonight can go so well tonight. In addition to having Liang Jiashu and others to support us internally and externally, the army led by Colonel Smith is the main reason. Tanks, armored vehicles, these are very oppressive.
Once the exciting things come out, not to mention just one Kowloon Walled City, even two or three more will not be enough to see!"
Lan Gang and Han Sen nodded in agreement after hearing this.
Indeed, the troops led by Smith put in a lot of effort tonight. Those gangsters in the Kowloon Walled City have always been known to hold AK47s and hang grenades on their waists, but in front of armored vehicles and tanks, they are nothing more than little ants?!
"In addition," Lan Gang hesitated and said, "when I was interviewed by the TV station this time, I felt an indescribable feeling in my heart——"
Chen Zhichao and Han Sen looked at each other and then towards Lan Gang.
"Anyway, I feel very awkward! I have been interviewed on TV before, and was hailed as the nemesis of crime after catching a gangster, and was praised in the newspaper for handling a bank robbery, etc... But today I feel different
, I feel like a good person!”
Chen Zhichao stopped talking and took a long puff of his cigar.
Han Sen also immersed himself in drinking tea slowly.
They can understand Lan Gang's mood, because they feel the same way.
In this world, no one is born wanting to be a bad guy, especially those police officers who are determined to report to the police academy, eliminate evil and promote good and uphold the rule of law. From the beginning, they are awarded the title of hero, which represents the rule of law and justice.
Unfortunately, the general environment of this era does not allow them to be truly just police officers. If you are not corrupt, you will not be gregarious, and if you are not gregarious, you will not be able to get along. So in the end, they deviated from their original ideals and became representatives of bad guys.
But after they conquered the Kowloon Walled City tonight, they were praised by countless citizens and inspired by them. For the first time, they felt what "police" and "honor" were!
If nothing else, let’s just say that they are having a party in this teahouse tonight. The teahouse owner and the teahouse clerks worship them as heroes. There are even some customers who saw them and chased them for autographs, completely treating them as idols.
and stars.
This kind of honor makes them a little ashamed, but also makes them intoxicated.
After all, who would want to be bald if they had hair? Who would be willing to be a thief if they had money?!
"Think about the fight to the death between me and the four detectives of yours. It's really ridiculous!" Chen Zhichao spit out smoke, breaking the silence in the private room. "At that time, everyone was fighting for a place in the police force. It was really dog eat dog!"
"Yes, it's worse than dog biting dog!" Lan Gang took over, "At that time, Brother Luo and Yan Xiong fought first, and finally Yan Xiong was defeated by Brother Luo, and then Brother Luo fought with you -"
"I'm on par with him!" Chen Zhichao said with a smile, "I even beat him several times. If Shi Zhijian hadn't been helping him behind the scenes, maybe he would be my subordinate now, and I would be the number one police officer.
guy!"
Lan Gang and Han Sen smiled, looked at each other, and then looked at Chen Zhichao: "Isn't it great to be the number one police officer?"
Chen Zhichao flicked his cigar and said, "I used to think that I was very powerful. I could at least outdo the four detectives and show off my power to the entire police force. Even those ghost guys looked at me. But now I realize that being the second best is actually a big deal."
It’s pretty good. At least I got the first shot. Lei Luo helped me bear a lot of pressure like now--"
Lan Gang and Han Sen gave a thumbs up together: "Great! You see clearly!"
Chen Zhichao shook his head and said with a wry smile: "It's not that I see clearly, but it's forced by the situation - now the Independent Commission Against Corruption is staring at us with no way out, maybe we will go to jail together!"
"Don't say such depressing words!" Lan Gang leaned back on his chair carelessly, "The three of us are heroes now. Even if the Independent Commission Against Corruption wants to attack us, we have to take a look at the situation first - how can we be like today?
A hero will be imprisoned tomorrow? If this is the case, Shangfeng will lose his face!"
Chen Zhichao nodded: "You're right! So the three of us would like to thank Shi Zhijian. He had predicted that we would do this. If we didn't help Ding Yongqiang, we wouldn't be able to get the chance to shine in front of TV interviews, and we wouldn't be heroes.
, If you don’t become a hero, you will lose your gold medal to avoid death, and you might have been invited to have coffee by the Independent Commission Against Corruption!”
Chen Zhichao's words made Lan Gang and Han Sen nod their heads.
Indeed, everything that happened tonight was planned by Shi Zhijian.
Lei Luo invited them to dinner, hoping to isolate Ding Yongqiang and make Ding Yongqiang fail to attack the Kowloon Walled City.
But Chen Zhichao and others know very well that tonight is the best chance to gain fame and get a gold medal to avoid death. If they can help Ding Yongqiang win the city in one fell swoop, they will undoubtedly transform into heroes!
With the aura of a hero, even if the ICAC gang wants to touch them, they have to think twice.
"So among the many tycoons in Hong Kong, the one I admire the most is Shi Zhijian!" Chen Zhichao said in an admiring tone, "See far, calculate accurately, and recruit wisely!"
Lan Gang and Han Sen said in unison: "Yes! Yes! Sometimes we even wonder if he is a ghost? He can strategize and calculate everything!"
"There are two people I still admire," Chen Zhichao continued, puffing on his cigar.
"That's Lai Hao and Yan Xiong. I don't know if they were lucky or if they saved the country in their previous life, but they met a great benefactor like Shi Zhijian and came ashore to clear their names collectively!"
"Look now, the lame man has now become a justice of the peace. He goes out to do good deeds every day. He also invested in Shi Zhijian's health care product business. He is justifiably making money!"
"As for Yan Xiong, it's even more amazing. He was crushed by me and was on the same level as you. Even at the worst time, his house was ransacked and he was almost imprisoned. But because of his shameless spirit, he always followed Shi Zhijian to do things. Slowly
He slowly became Shi Zhijian's confidant, and now he has not only been cleared, but has also become a veritable arms tycoon. It is said that all arms in Asia now have to be handled by him, which is extremely powerful!"
Lan Gang and Han Sen were deeply touched by Chen Zhichao's words.
It can even be said that they are more envious and jealous than Chen Zhichao in their hearts, and they also have a little regret! Because Shi Zhijian had given them such an opportunity before, letting them and Lei Luo give up everything in front of them and come ashore to do legitimate business.
It's a pity that at that time, like Lei Luo, they were blinded by power and interests. They thought they could make more money by becoming Inspector Zonghua and getting a higher official position. But now they know that these are all false and cannot stand up.
If the Independent Commission Against Corruption investigates carefully, maybe all the property gained in this life will be confiscated, and I will have to go to jail!
How do you say that, fame, fortune and wealth are all just a dream!
Just when Chen Zhichao and the others were filled with emotion, they suddenly heard that they were rushing up the stairs to do business, and there was a noise in their ears: "I'm sorry, Brother Xijiu, you can't go in! Superintendent Chen and the others are -"
"Get away! I have something urgent to do with them!"
There was a noise outside, and then the door of the private room was pushed open. Take a closer look, who could it be if it wasn't Chen Xijiu?!
Chen Zhichao and the others frowned when they saw that the person coming was Chen Xijiu.
Chen Xijiu is Lei Luo's confidant, and the three of them usually give him face. However, Chen Xijiu is so ignorant tonight that he breaks in alone. What does it mean?
"It turns out to be Brother Xijiu! What brought you here?" Chen Zhichao asked unhappily, "Could it be Brother Luo who knew we were drinking tea here and complained that we didn't give him face, so he asked you to come here to punish us?
"
Chen Xijiu ignored Chen Zhichao's strange voice and gasped: "Brother Chao, Brother Gang, Brother Sen! Brother Luo is in trouble, please save him!"
"Uh, what do you mean?" Chen Zhichao and the others were stunned.
At first they thought that Chen Xijiu was sent by Lei Luo to cause trouble. After all, they found various reasons to leave after Lei Luo invited him to help Ding Yongqiang attack the Kowloon Walled City. This matter was even shown on TV, and they could hide it even if they wanted to.
Can't help it, in their opinion Lei Luo will be very angry when he finds out, but now -
Chen Xijiu didn't care much. She picked up the cup of herbal tea that belonged to Chen Zhichao on the table and took a few sips. After wiping it with the back of her hand, she explained in detail what happened at Lei Luo's house.
"That's the specific thing. Now Brother Luo has been invited to have tea by the Independent Commission Against Corruption. Look at the threatening attitude! As you know, those people are all meticulous people and will never take action easily without real evidence! Also!
Yes, even Lard Boy was invited by them, and he might have to be interrogated overnight——"
Chen Xijiu poured out all the words in his stomach in one breath, and felt his mouth was dry again. He picked up the tea cup again and wanted to take a few sips, but found that the cup of tea had been drained by himself. Lan Gang picked up his cup and handed it to him.
In the past, Chen Xijiu took the drink and took a gulp of wine, gasping for air.
Look at Chen Zhichao, Lan Gang and Han Sen at this time, you look at me, I look at you.
"How can we help?" Han Sen spread his hands. "We can't even protect ourselves now!"
"Yes! Are we supposed to go to the Independent Commission Against Corruption to ask for someone?" Lan Gang frowned, "Wouldn't that mean we're throwing ourselves into a trap?"
Chen Zhichao took a deep breath: "Brother Luo was taken away, Lard Boy was taken away——" Then he looked at Chen Xijiu: "Then, may I ask, why are you still fine?"
"Uh, what do you mean? Brother Chao, do you doubt me?" Chen Xijiu's eyes widened with an angry look on his face.
