Chapter 013, Liu Sir: Opportunities are earned through one's own efforts.
"Godfather, that's true, but I think Daozaipiao really doesn't know what's good for him!"
What is his status now? A stray dog. If it weren't for the Wo Shing Pharma, he would have been trampled to death by these big shots in Tsim Sha Tsui in the blink of an eye.
"Godfather, you've kindly hosted a banquet and given him plenty of face, yet he still dares to act arrogantly in front of you and raise his voice at me. This kind of person has no heart and is not worth your time, Godfather!"
After all that, Dongguanzi was still worried that Lin Huaile was betting everything on Chen Piao, and couldn't help but mutter to himself again.
Starting the vehicle, Dongguanzi saw Lin Huai Le give a faint smile in the rearview mirror.
Then Lin Huai Le spoke up: "This time, in the struggle for leadership with Big D, your Uncle Ding Quan and the Tai Po gangsters both contributed a lot."
I won't offend anyone by ignoring them. Dongguan boy, you haven't been around long enough. Don't worry too much about things in Tsim Sha Tsui. Just do as I say!
"OK, Godfather!"
……
After leaving the Treasure Seafood Restaurant, Chen Piao did not return to his residence.
He knew all too well that feuds in the underworld could be resolved in an instant. He had beaten Dilu into such a wretched state and then extorted over 300,000 from Han Chen. If Han Chen wanted to maintain his foothold in Tsim Sha Tsui in the future, he would have to avenge this grudge that very night.
So he hailed a taxi on the main road and had the driver take him through the cross-harbour tunnel. Twenty minutes later, he arrived at a residential area in Wan Chai.
This is a middle-class area, but even so, the apartment buildings here are worlds apart from the public housing estates in Kowloon.
After getting off the bus, Chen Piao sat on a flower bed in Apartment Building A, lit a cigarette, and waited for someone to arrive.
Time ticked by, and just as the fifth cigarette in Chen Piao's fingers was about to burn out, a white Toyota finally pulled up in the parking lot at the entrance of the residential area.
Upon closer inspection of the license plate, Chen Piao immediately threw away his cigarette butt; the person he was waiting for had finally arrived!
The Toyota was turned off, and a handsome man in a black suit got out of the car.
The first thing he did after getting out of the car was to pull off the blue and white tie around his neck and stride toward the apartment building.
"Liu sir, working overtime so late?"
Chen Piao suddenly emerged from the shadows of the flowerbed, startling the man who was just about to go home.
This man was none other than Liu Jianming, the mole Han Chen had planted in the intelligence department. At this moment, his eyes were not so melancholy, but still carried a hint of arrogance.
During this period, various departments of the police force have been keeping an eye on the Ni family case in Tsim Sha Tsui. As a key member of the intelligence branch, Lau Kin-ming obviously recognized Chan Piao.
He instinctively reached for his waist, lifted his shirt, and revealed his gun holster.
"Isn't it all because of the Ni family that people are working overtime? Daozaipiao, you're not here to avenge the Ni family, are you?"
I'm warning you, if I don't drag you to jail, you should go to the Tin Hau Temple right now and properly offer thanks to the gods!
"No, not at all. Actually, there's something I'd like to ask Inspector Liu about!"
Chen Piao stopped five steps away from Liu Jianming and then scrutinized Liu Jianming for a few moments.
Seeing that Chen Piao didn't seem to have any hostility, Liu Jianming simply put down his clothes and snorted coldly.
"Sorry, I'm not interested in answering your question!"
After saying that, Liu Jianming was about to leave when Chen Piao blurted out a sentence that startled him so much that he stumbled and almost fell to the ground.
"Inspector Liu, would you prefer me asking a cop a question as a gangster, or as an undercover cop asking Han Chen, the mole, a question?!"
"What...do you mean?!"
A strong sense of suffocation surged into Liu Jianming's heart. He almost instinctively stopped in his tracks, turned his head almost ninety degrees, and stared wide-eyed at Chen Piao.
Three years ago, Han Chen selected a bunch of moles to apply to the police academy. Among them, only Liu Jianming went the furthest.
After graduating from police academy, he entered the intelligence department within two months thanks to a tip provided by Han Chen. In the past two years, thanks to the various bombshells revealed by Han Chen, he has risen through the ranks like a rocket and is regarded by his superiors as a rising star in the intelligence department.
Once the Ni family's case is closed, he'll immediately be able to get a senior inspector position!
In the past few years, because Han Chen was not too conspicuous, Liu Jianming sometimes forgot that he was an inside man.
In his subconscious, he saw himself as a promising underdog.
Now that his identity had been suddenly exposed by Chen Piao, he felt as if he had been awakened from a carefully woven dream, and looking down, he saw nothing but a bottomless abyss...
"Liu sir, there's no need to be so nervous. It's just that Han Chen was too careless and let me see the phone recordings he had collected."
By the way, I made a copy of this recording. You don't want me to hand it over to your intelligence department, do you?
As Chen Piao spoke, he took a few steps forward and patted Liu Jianming on the shoulder.
Only he himself knew that he didn't actually have any copies or recordings of Liu Jianming and Han Chen.
He was merely a prescient strategist, deceiving Liu Jianming.
But he was certain that Liu Jianming wouldn't dare gamble that he was being deceived; it was an unsolvable scam, and Chen Piao believed that Liu Jianming knew how to make the right choice.
goo-dong-
Liu Jianming clearly heard himself swallow, shook his somewhat dizzy head, and forced himself to stand up.
"You're saying you're an undercover agent in the police force?"
Chen Piao didn't answer. Instead, he picked up the mobile phone hanging on his waist and dialed a number.
Shortly after, the phone was answered, and Huang Zhicheng's voice came through the receiver.
"Feed?"
"Officer Wong, Han Chen's men are plastering my name all over the streets!"
"You idiot, you only have yourself to blame for going too far. I told you to join the Wo Shing Pharma, why did you have to go and mess with Han Chen?!"
"Aren't you implying that I should infiltrate the inner circle of Wo Luen Shing?"
"I haven't provoked Han Chen, so why should the Lian Sheng side trust me!"
"Then don't forget who you are. Let me remind you again, you're a cop, not a gangster!"
Huang Zhicheng was clearly annoyed, but in order to calm Chen Piao down, he tried his best to keep his tone calm.
After a long pause, Huang Zhicheng let out a long sigh on the other end of the phone.
"You should lay low for a while. We'll start work tomorrow, and my team and I will work out a plan to keep Han Chen quiet for as long as possible!"
"Thank you very much, Inspector Wong!"
After saying that, Chen Piao hung up the phone and looked at Liu Jianming with a playful smile on his lips.
"Now, you should believe me, I wasn't lying to you, right?"
Liu Jianming felt a sudden dizziness.
He, the mole, was caught red-handed by the undercover agent. The thought that all the glamorous things he had been living were about to vanish like smoke filled him with a hysterical frenzy.
But this madness lasted only a moment before vanishing, replaced by a desolate sense of annihilation.
"I had no choice in the matter; I really wanted to be a good person!"
"Well said, I'll give you a chance to be the good guy!"
Chen Piao's words instantly gave Liu Jianming, who had been in despair, a glimmer of hope.
His eyes widened even more, and his gaze towards Chen Piao was filled with disbelief.
"You...you're really willing to give me a chance?"
"Opportunities are earned through one's own efforts. Since you want to be a good person, then I'll play the bad guy!"
"Officer Liu, would it be convenient for us to speak privately?"
