Western District Police Station, Major Crimes Division Office.
Every team was given a set of information, and Zhuo Mingcheng's Li Ying's team was no exception.
Chief Inspector Huang Bingyang put his hands behind his back and walked up and down the office corridor in an official tone. He emphasized to the police officers who were standing neatly at the side.
"There will be a lot of country gentlemen and councilmen attending the Dragon Boat Race tomorrow. The information in your hands is the person you need to protect. Have a good rest tonight and be alert tomorrow. If anything goes wrong, you can hand in your resignation without me saying anything.”
“Yes，sir!”The people around him shouted in unison.
Zhuo
Mingcheng looked at the information in his hand. From the photo, he looked like a slightly wealthy middle-aged man.
"President of Dongyuan Corporation, Wang Dongyuan.”
Grandpa Zeng threw away the document in his hand and snatched the document from Zhuo Mingcheng's hand and threw it on the table.
"What's the matter? Why is your liver so angry?”Zhuo Mingcheng found it strange that even the good-tempered Grandpa Zeng would lose his temper.
"Do we need to protect such a person?”Grandpa Zeng seemed to be very angry. Li Ying looked a little embarrassed. He stood at the side and didn't dare to make a sound. After Grandpa Zeng sulked for a while, he felt that it was boring and walked away.
At this moment, Zhuo Mingcheng had the chance to ask,""Brother Li, how did this Wang Dongyuan offend Grandpa Zeng?”
Li Ying looked up at the door and said in a low voice,"This Wang Dongyuan is in close contact with the big drug lords in Central and South America. It's not a serious business."”
"Grandpa Zeng is already so old, but his sense of justice is still so strong.”Zhuo Mingcheng praised sincerely.
Li Ying looked at him for a long time with an expression that said,"Are you retarded?"
Zhuo Mingcheng was baffled.""Uh, is there a problem?"
"No, one of Wang Dongyuan's important businesses in the early years was to help those real estate tycoons buy properties.”Li Ying said softly,"Don't tell anyone that I said it when we get out. Grandpa Zeng doesn't like it when others mention it."”
"Take over the building?" Zhuo Mingcheng was still a little confused, but at this time, Li Ying was obviously keeping it a secret and did not say anything else.
He could only ask a few of his close colleagues to find out.
In the mid-1980s, some areas of Hong Kong began to be demolished and rebuilt. More than half of the top ten were engaged in the real estate business. However, one of the problems that the real estate industry had to face was demolition disputes. Some people who were more nostalgic were unwilling to move.
There was demand, supply, and timing. The industry of "building acquisition" came into being. It was all members of some clubs who used some underhanded means to help the employer acquire land and earn commissions.
Among the poor in Hong Kong, eight out of ten people were related to a member of the club. If they were forced to do so, it would not look good on everyone. Therefore, they had always been more restrained. When they encountered those who refused to be persuaded, they would be eliminated with a bold and decisive move.
This had already formed a unique industrial chain that was tacitly approved by many parties. As long as the modification plan did not stop and the government did not step in, they would continue to do so. Grandpa Zeng was unwilling to move out back then, but he suffered a huge loss in the end. If not for his special status, he would have been permanently disabled.
Naturally, he did not have a good impression of Dongyuan Corporation.
As
usual, Zhuo Mingcheng went to pick up Annie Annie after work. Then, the two of them sent Jenny home, and Zhuo Mingcheng sent Annie Annie back.
"This is for you." Zhuo Mingcheng passed the leather bag to Annie.
"What is this?" Annie opened it in confusion and saw that it was a mobile phone. She immediately rejected,"It's very expensive. I can't take it."
"Take it." Zhuo Mingcheng's tone was unquestionable as he forced Annie to take the call."Didn't you say you don't have a mobile phone? This way, you can call me anytime.”
Zhuo Mingcheng had bought this mobile phone with the prize money he had just received.
Annie lowered her eyes and didn't look at Zhuo Mingcheng. She didn't think that Zhuo Mingcheng would remember her words and send it over today.
"Then…I'll use it first." Annie said awkwardly.”
Zhuo Mingcheng smiled and pretended to ask casually,""Right, what's wrong with Jenny's eyes?”
"That was an accident." Annie looked scared at the mention of this.
"What's wrong?" Zhuo Mingcheng put his arm around Annie's shoulders and pulled her into his embrace.
"That was four or five months ago. There was a gunfight in the bar. Someone came in and killed a lot of people. Jenny was injured in the eye at that time. She could still see a little bit clearly at first, but now her condition is getting worse. The doctor said that if she doesn't get surgery soon, she will really go blind.”Annie's shoulders shook. Gunfights and dead people were nightmares for ordinary citizens.
"Then were you alright at that time?”Zhuo Mingcheng said anxiously. After he finished speaking, he laughed at himself as if he had asked a stupid question. If there was something wrong, was the person standing in front of him a ghost?
Annie smiled sweetly when she saw how worried he was."I was not feeling well for the past few days, so I took a leave of absence. Otherwise, I really don't know what would have happened.”
"Are you feeling unwell?" Zhuo Mingcheng frowned."Are you alright? Are you sick?"
"No need." Annie suddenly cowered in Zhuo Mingcheng's arms."It's just that…I'm not feeling well."”
“？”
Seeing that Zhuo Mingcheng was still at a loss, Annie said angrily,""Those few days every month!"
"Oh... Uh..." Zhuo Mingcheng suddenly understood, but then he felt a little awkward. F * ck, I was so busy thinking about whether I was sick that I forgot basic common sense.。。
"He's also a pitiful person..." He sighed and stopped. His intention was a little obvious when he asked again."I have some urgent matters to deal with tomorrow, so I might not be able to rush over.”
When he said this, his tone was a little solemn. He knew that tomorrow's dragon boat race would not be peaceful. If nothing unexpected happened, it would probably be the first time he and Xiao Zhuang met.
When he received the information during the day, he rejected the task of "Protect Wang Dongyuan". Just like what Grandpa Zeng said, why would someone like him be protected? Instead, he resolutely accepted the task of investigating the Darling Bar Murder Case.
The current mission progress had changed to "Capture(Kill Xiao Zhuang". Although he was smiling now, it was just a way to relieve stress.
Annie instinctively sensed that something was wrong from Zhuo Mingcheng's words.""Is tomorrow's matter very troublesome?"
Zhuo Mingcheng hesitated for a moment, but eventually nodded.
"I believe in you." Annie was smart enough not to ask any further questions. She only helped Zhuo Mingcheng tidy his collar.
Zhuo Mingcheng looked up at the moon, then looked down at the girl who was helping him smooth his wrinkles. His eyes were calm.
He had to come back alive, definitely, definitely!
