1038 [Framed and blamed! 】(1/2)
Comments and news in these newspapers all praised Mai Lihao, Bailiqu and others. Those former members of the Legislative Council, as well as the bosses of the Anti-Corruption Bureau and others, in their writings, turned into the ghost Bao Qingtian.
.
However, these compliments made ordinary people who went to tea houses to drink morning tea quite disdainful. There were some grumpy people who were so angry that they tore up the newspaper and threw it away: "Pu, your mother! Gui Lao Bao Qingtian? When will the medical staff be punished?"
The tea money that Huo Zhugui asked for and the throat opening fee that Huo Zhugui asked for have been cancelled. Let’s talk about the future! A bunch of idiots!”
"Gui guys are all protected by officials! This time, they can just do the same thing as last time and catch a few minions to work with them!"
"Every time we fight against corruption, we become even more corrupt! We ordinary people have no way out!"
These angry ordinary people dare not directly accuse the government, let alone those arrogant politicians, but they can still scold the newspapers for their nonsense in the teahouse.
Ordinary people in Hong Kong can only read Chinese newspapers, but the content of several English newspapers published locally in Hong Kong is different, among which the Hong Kong English "Tiger" is the main one:
"The ICAC has been established, and anti-corruption in Hong Kong is about to begin! Governor Dai Lingzhi has authorized Sir John Maliho to take full charge of the work of the ICAC, and requires all departments in Hong Kong, especially the British Army in Hong Kong, to actively cooperate! If there is any shirk, severe punishment will not be spared!"
The English-language "Tiger" newspaper was full of pictures and texts. It first confirmed the contribution of the future Governor of Hong Kong, Mark Mak, and then emphasized the independence and power of the Independent Commission Against Corruption. All departments must cooperate with its work, otherwise it will be dereliction of duty.
Be held legally responsible!
What does this mean?
It shows that the Independent Commission Against Corruption is not afraid of the Hong Kong police force, which is the most corrupt! Behind the Independent Commission Against Corruption, various departments support them, and even the military stands behind them.
…
Hong Kong noble villa.
Bailiqu stood in front of the window in the study, holding a glass of red wine in his hand, facing the moonlight outside, shaking the red wine in his hand.
The Independent Commission Against Corruption has been established and is now recruiting troops. According to what Mai Lihao said, he and Shi Zhijian are both the heads of the ICAC and have the power to place half of the people in it.
Bailiqu chose ghost guy Thomson. Thomson was from Scotland Yard and was an old subordinate of Bailiqu. Bailiqu intended to use this opportunity to help him rise to the top and directly appointed him as the chief anti-corruption officer of the Independent Commission Against Corruption.
Shi Zhijian took a different approach and even placed headshot detective Ding Yongqiang into the Independent Commission Against Corruption, making him the leader of the anti-corruption investigation team, slightly higher than Inspector Hua.
On the surface, Thomson is Ding Yongqiang's boss and can order Ding Yongqiang to do things, but Bailiqu knows that Shi Zhijian has made a clever move this time!
There is a Chinese saying that "the county magistrate is not as good as the current governor!"
Bailiqu didn't know the meaning of this sentence until Ding Yongqiang took office.
In terms of playing power, the young Shi Zhijian taught Bailiqu another trick called "drawing salary from the bottom of the cauldron"!
It is obvious that Shi Zhijian has arranged for Ding Yongqiang to be his spy, who can directly influence the arrest and investigation of anti-corruption. On the contrary, Thomson sits high and cannot visit the front line in person, which will delay many combat opportunities.
Bailiqu took a sip of wine and continued to think. Shi Zhijian did this just to protect his good friends and brothers, like Lai Hao, Lei Luo, Lan Gang and others!
These are all the same thing!
Especially the big tiger Lei Luo is the king of corruption. If you want to kill the tiger, you must set up a trap and wait for him to fall into it before you can take action!
Jingle bell bell!
A series of urgent phone calls interrupted Bailiqu's train of thought.
Bailiqu did not bother the butler, who had turned gray like himself. He walked to the living room and answered the phone: "Hello, I'm Sir Bailiqu."
"Lei Luo has gathered people to start taking action. In addition to suspending the collection of fees, he is also working hard to collect ledgers!" Chen Zhichao's voice was on the other side of the phone.
Bailiqu held the receiver in one hand and took a sip of red wine from the wine glass with the other hand: "What if we can find those account books first?"
"The people who manage the account books are people who are loyal to the society. They even risk their lives for the sake of loyalty. It's very difficult to handle!"
"Loyalty? I really don't understand what you Chinese people call loyalty!" Bailiqu said in a disdainful tone, "But I know that there are three things in this world that no one can refuse, money, women, and
that power!"
"Sir, what do you mean -"
"I don't care what method you use, you have to get those account books!"
Chen Zhichao was silent for a full two or three seconds, and then he said firmly: "Copy that! I won't let you down!"
The moment he put down the phone, Yan Xiong who was following him asked, "What did Sir say?"
Chen Zhichao did not answer Yan Xiong, but took out a cigarette from his arms, put it in his mouth, and then asked Yan Xiong: "Is there a fire?"
"Yes!" Yan Xiong quickly took out a lighter and helped him light the cigarette.
As the cigarette butt burned out, Chen Zhichao's eyes became vicious: "Master Xiong, we have to work!"
Yan Xiong felt something, and his heart thumped, "Do you really want to completely break up with Lei Luo?"
Chen Zhichao blew out a puff of smoke: "I have no choice! This time, either he dies or I live!"
…
Mong Kok Pier.
The night is dark and windy.
"Hey, Yutoubiao! Where is the ledger?!" Fighting Cock said forcefully, then inserted the knife into Yutoubiao's belly with a pop, pushing the wide-eyed Yutoubiao against the wall.
As Yan Xiong's subordinate, Douji Qiang actually hates doing this kind of work.
He is a plainclothes man and not a thief. He will feel guilty every time he stabs someone with a knife.
But the situation forced Yan Xiong to say that no matter what method he used, he would get the account book Lei Luo wanted!
The fish head logo in front of me is the most trusted horse boy of Lei Luo's lardboy.
On the surface, the fish head logo is a white paper fan belonging to Lai Kwok-wah, the boss of Hutchison, one of Hong Kong's four major social groups. In fact, it is the No. 49 boy who was placed by the lard boy who was in charge of Hutchison's accounts.
For Yu Toubiao, the ledger is his life. If the ledger is lost, he cannot survive!
"Kill me, Brother Zai will help me take revenge!"
"Are you talking about Lard Boy?" Fighting Chicken sneered, "You know, now Lard Boy and his boss Lei Luo can't protect themselves! Hey, now you have two choices, either take another blow from me, or surrender.
Show me the account book and I'll take you to the hospital!"
"Haha, we are here to hang out out of loyalty! All we need is a ledger, but our life is all it takes!" Yutoubiao said through gritted teeth.
"Okay! I'll make it happen for you!" The fighting cock pulled out the knife and thrust it into the belly of the fish head mark again!
Yutoubiao's whole body slowly slipped and fell to a sitting position. He lowered his head and glanced at his abdomen. The severe pain from the wound made him gasp for air, and his body was even trembling slightly: "Hiss! That's enough! Only two stabs? One more stab?"
Is it possible to make up three swords?"
Douji Qiang was enraged. He had never seen such a Jianghu person who was not afraid of death. He finally understood why Yan Xiong had that "helpless" expression when he gave the order.
The people chosen by Lei Luo are indeed hard-core!
Just when Douji Qiang wanted to stab the fish head again, the people around him couldn't stand it anymore——
"Brother Qiang, forget it! If you keep doing this, he will die!"
"Yes, what we want is the account book, not specifically human life!"
"After all, we are also police, we still have to leave some leeway when doing things!"
Douji Qiang did not expect that the people around him would oppose him, and said angrily: "What are you talking about? Are you talking for this guy? Then do you know what Master Yan will do to us if we fail to complete the task?"
The three plainclothes men fell silent.
Fighting Chicken snorted coldly, held the knife to the fish head mark's face, and said ferociously: "I'll give you one last chance, and I'll save the account book?"
The fish-headed symbol smiled and spat a mouthful of blood on Dou Chongqiang's face: "You want to know? Then say hello to your mother for me!"
"act recklessly!"
Fighting Chicken clenched the knife tightly and was about to put the fish head under the barrel when the siren sounded, but saw two police cars roaring towards them, stopping not far in front of them.
Douji stood up forcefully and used his hands to block the dazzling light of the car lights.
The car door opened and Lardboy got out of the car, still smiling.
"Wow, it's so lively! Are you having a meeting in the middle of the night?" Lardboy held his briefcase under his arm and walked towards Douji Qiang and the others. As he walked, he put his hands together to light a fire and lit the cigarette he was holding.
Seven or eight plainclothes men followed him, outflanking Douji Qiang and others from the left and right sides.
"Brother Qiang, what should I do?"
The three plainclothes men following Dou Chongqiang panicked.
Fighting Chicken Qiang's eyelids twitched, "What are you afraid of? We are also bad guys!"
Lardboy smoked a cigarette and walked up to Dou Chong Qiang with his briefcase. He glanced at the fish head logo leaning against the corner and smiled: "Brother Qiang, right? I remember right, you are with Yan Xiong!"
"Since you know, why are you still talking so much?" Fighting Cock raised the sole of his foot and wiped the blood from the knife on the sole of his foot with a look of disdain.
Lardboy smiled: "It seems you don't take me seriously!"
"I'm a plainclothes guy, you're just helping people..."
Before Dou Chongqiang could finish his words, he slapped him in the face! Lard Boy breathed on his face.
Dou Chongqiang was stunned. He didn't expect Lard Boy to beat him.
Bang bang bang!
Lardboy slapped him three times again!
