328. Chapter 328: Ether Society

On the other side, the mysterious Luo Wen had been visiting Su Xingbai frequently lately.

Besides supplying goods to Su Xingbai, he was also subtly trying to win him over.

"1982 Lafite, how is it?" In a high-end Restaurant at the Peninsula Hotel, Luo Wen took out a bottle of fine wine and handed it to Su Xingbai: "Consider it a celebration of your complete victory."

Su Xingbai took a sip of the red wine, then said to Luo Wen: "I have to thank you for the goods you supplied me for that. But you certainly know how to enjoy yourself. 1982 Lafite, this stuff isn't cheap."

Luo Wen smiled and said: "Money is meant to be spent. Isn't it the same for you, Mike? High-end suits, luxury sports cars; you don't look like a Thug boss at all."

Su Xingbai smiled and said: "I'm not like those Thugs with such poor taste."

"Well said." Luo Wen laughed and said: "I really didn't misjudge you. High education, good taste; you are just like us."

Su Xingbai's heart stirred: "Us?"

"Of course, you didn't think I was working alone, did you?" Luo Wen said with a smile: "This batch of goods in your hands is top-tier stuff from South America. Provided by our organization. Unique in the world."

"What organization is so powerful?" Su Xingbai asked curiously.

Luo Wen smiled faintly: "Ether Society, ever heard of it?"

The name Ether Society was not widely circulated, but Su Xingbai had actually heard of it.

However, it was only through a rough understanding from Chen Jiajun; he just hadn't expected the Ether Society to come and win him over personally.

"Heard of it, an international criminal organization, I've heard they have quite a background." Su Xingbai nodded and said.

Luo Wen smiled and said: "So, are you interested in joining our Ether Society?"

"Join the Ether Society? What are the benefits?" Su Xingbai said indifferently: "Although you are rumored to be very powerful, I don't know anything about you."

Luo Wen smiled, lowered his voice, and said: "After we interact more, you will know the benefits of joining the Ether Society. As a welcoming gift, we intend to help you take down the position of Yifeng's leader. What do you think?"

"Damn it, you kid are wicked enough. Isn't this too underhanded?"

In a noisy Bar, Han Bin heard Su Xingbai's plan, immediately spat out the beer in his mouth, and laughed while patting Su Xingbai on the shoulder.

Su Xingbai said helplessly: "That old fox Mo Yilie is watertight, and my foundation is very shallow. If I don't go all in, how can I help the Boss settle this matter?"

"And don't look at how I have the upper hand this time; there are very few people in the entire Yifeng who support me, while there are plenty who support La Jiang. If I keep fighting him, who knows when I might get taken out by La Jiang."

Han Bin nodded and said: "Alright, what did you want to do by finding me today? It's not just because of this matter, right?"

Su Xingbai said with a serious face: "Help me tell the Boss, I intend to make a move on Mo Yilie."

Han Bin frowned and said: "Why so anxious? Because of the pressure La Jiang is putting on you?"

Su Xingbai shook his head and said: "It's not just because of that reason. It's also that Luo Wen is a member of the Ether Society. He intends to help me take the Yifeng leader position and then recruit me into the Ether Society."

Hearing Su Xingbai say this, Han Bin's expression immediately turned serious: "Are you sure it's the Ether Society?"

"Luo Wen told me himself." Su Xingbai nodded and said.

Han Bin rubbed his chin: "Good, I will notify the Boss about this immediately."

After finishing, Han Bin took out his phone and told Chen Jiajun about this matter.

Chen Jiajun was also very surprised after hearing it. He had thought the Ether Society would be quiet for a while, but he didn't expect them to still be stubborn. This time, they had actually changed their tactics and set their sights on a small gang like Yifeng.

After pondering for a moment, Chen Jiajun said: "Tell Su Xingbai, since the Ether Society has delivered themselves to his door, use them as needed. Don't worry about so much. After Mo Yilie is dealt with, I have my own arrangements for the Ether Society."

After Su Xingbai received Chen Jiajun's affirmative reply, he immediately intended to get to work.

Such a good opportunity, only a fool wouldn't use it.

In the following period, Su Xingbai was very active in contacting the people from the Ether Society.

How to obtain the position of Yifeng leader.

It must be said that the Ether Society is deep and unfathomable; they actually found out that La Jiang is an Undercover Police officer.

After some thought, Su Xingbai decided to keep this leverage to use at a critical moment.

The most important thing now is to deal with Mo Yilie.

The gigolo Su Xingbai found was also capable; he soon had Ding Min wrapped around his finger.

It even made Ding Min have thoughts of eloping with him.

At the same time, her attitude toward Mo Yilie became increasingly cold, and she also saw clearly that she was just a pawn in Mo Yilie's hands.

Hearing the gigolo return to report to him, Su Xingbai immediately smiled and said: "The timing is just about right."

Baodeng said with some worry: "Boss, is it a bit rash for us to make a move on Mo Yilie like this? Just relying on Ding Min won't be enough to deal with this old fox."

Su Xingbai said confidently: "Of course I know that, but Ding Min controls Mo Yilie's warehouse. As long as something happens to the warehouse, do you think Mo Yilie will stand by and watch? That's tens of millions worth of goods."

Baodeng reacted quickly: "Boss, you want to cooperate with the Police?"

"Of course, reporting drug trafficking is the duty of every Hong Kong citizen." Su Xingbai said with a smile.

"Then what should we do next?" Baodeng asked.

"Since all the conditions are met, we just need a fuse." Su Xingbai sneered and said: "We need to stage a car accident."

In a luxury shop in Central, Ding Min was chatting with the gigolo.

Ding Min had already decided that after helping Mo Yilie move this batch of goods, she would take her savings and fly away with the gigolo.

Just as the two were imagining their future, a commotion came from outside.

Ding Min discovered that the car she was driving had been rear-ended, and the entire trunk was damaged.

This immediately made Ding Min panic; one had to know there was a batch of goods in her car.

If this attracted the Police, she wouldn't be able to clear her name even if she jumped into the Yellow River.

So Ding Min hurriedly hung up the phone, intending to drive away.

But at this moment, the man who hit the car walked over quickly and said: "Sorry, I hit your car. How much money do you want, I'll pay you."

Ding Min wanted to leave here quickly at this moment and said casually: "It doesn't matter, small thing. I have something to do and need to leave."

The man insisted: "It's better if we clarify things. You sign a paper stating we've reached a settlement. Otherwise, there will be trouble."

Ding Min said impatiently: "I said it's not necessary."

The man blocked the front of Ding Min's car and said, "It would be better if we cleared things up."

Just as Ding Min intended to shake off this man's entanglement, a patrol car suddenly drove over from the side of the road.

Two patrol officers walked over and said, "What's going on here?"

Ding Min had never seen such a scene; her heart panicked, and she slammed on the gas and bolted out.

In her panic, Ding Min immediately wanted to call Mo Yilie, but who knew the call wouldn't even connect.

Looking ahead, the police had set up a roadblock; Ding Min knew she couldn't escape, so she could only grit her teeth and get out of the car.

But she soon discovered something was wrong; the people setting up the roadblock in front of her didn't seem like police at all, but rather like street thugs from a triad.

After they stopped Ding Min, a van rushed over, and they dragged Ding Min directly into the vehicle.

Ding Min immediately screamed, "Who are you people? Why are you grabbing me?"

"Sister Min, don't you know who we are? Brother Lie asked us to send you his regards." The two thugs sneered and prepared to lay hands on Ding Min.

Upon hearing the two men's words, Ding Min felt as if she had been struck by lightning; she never imagined Mo Yilie could be so heartless.

He had discovered a hint of something wrong and intended to kill her to silence her.

Just as Ding Min was in despair, a car suddenly came charging over and slammed hard into the side of the van.

It flipped the van over, and the people inside were thrown into a chaotic mess.

At this moment, a person stepped out of the car and took the semi-conscious Ding Min away.

When Ding Min regained consciousness, she found herself in a room, and the person guarding her side was none other than her lover, the gigolo.

"Ah Min, are you alright?" the gigolo asked with a look of concern.

Ding Min immediately cried out to the gigolo: "I almost died. I didn't think this guy would be so ruthless, wanting to kill me to silence me."

The gigolo said deliberately: "Since he is heartless, let's just go all the way. You should just report Mo Yilie's drug storage location to the police, and then we can use the police's witness protection program to escape abroad."

"This..." Ding Min clearly still had some reservations.

But the gigolo's next words moved her: "Think about it, since Mo Yilie has already made his move, even if you pretend nothing happened, will he let you go? It was just lucky that I happened to come looking for you today; otherwise, you wouldn't even know how you died."

Hearing the gigolo's concerned words, Ding Min finally gritted her teeth and decided to turn against them.

"Boss, it's done. Ding Min revealed where Mo Yilie hides the drugs." Baodeng said excitedly: "Now this woman intends to go to the Police Station to report it with the gigolo."

"Good." Su Xingbai clapped his hands and said: "Spread this news and tell Mo Yilie."

Baodeng nodded and said: "I'll do it right away."

Less than two hours later, Mo Yilie received word that Ding Min had actually gone to the Police Station to file a report.

This immediately made Mo Yilie nervous: "What on earth is that bitch thinking? Has she gone crazy?"

Mo Yilie's trusted aide, Tank, said: "Boss, what do we do now? Ding Min is definitely under police protection now. If she exposes the big warehouse, our entire triad will suffer."

Mo Yilie immediately stood up and said: "Take the men, go to the columbarium, and move our goods immediately."

Tank nodded and immediately mobilized the men to follow Mo Yilie.

Arriving at the columbarium on the cemetery hill in the Wong Tai Sin District, Mo Yilie immediately had his men clear the area, then prepared to move the Ketamine hidden in the columbarium with his men.

But what Mo Yilie didn't expect was that the police's speed was clearly faster than they had imagined.

After obtaining the intelligence from Ding Min, they immediately began sending people to set up surveillance on the cemetery hill.

Especially the CIB, who had been watching Mo Yilie for a long time, so they mobilized quite a few men.

As soon as Mo Yilie entered the scene, the police side immediately began their operation.

But what the police didn't expect was that Mo Yilie, this old fox, also knew how to play the "Infernal Affairs" game, having left a mole in the police CIB long ago.

This kid was Mo Yilie's godson; his father was a sworn brother of Mo Yilie, and he had been receiving Mo Yilie's financial support to attend the police academy.

Now that Mo Yilie was in trouble, he disregarded the risk of being exposed and sent intelligence to Mo Yilie.

Suddenly, the men Mo Yilie brought clashed with the police.

Since they dared to go out and deal drugs, these trusted aides of Mo Yilie were all desperate men, fighting the police recklessly, and for a moment, the police couldn't even lift their heads.

As for Mo Yilie himself, he had long since changed his clothes and, under the protection of his trusted aide Tank, snuck down the hill through a secret passage in the columbarium.

"Damn it, how could so many things happen all of a sudden?" Tank cursed.

Just now, even he and Mo Yilie were almost discovered by the police; his heart was about to jump out of his chest.

Mo Yilie said with a gloomy face: "There must be a mole in Yifeng. After I go back, I will definitely find him and tear him to pieces."

Just as the two were talking in low voices, a voice rang out: "No need to look, am I not standing right in front of you?"

Hearing this voice, the two were shocked and looked toward the tunnel entrance, discovering that Su Xingbai had already brought people over.

"Mike, it's you."

Seeing Su Xingbai appear, Tank was both shocked and furious: "I knew you weren't a good thing from the start."

Mo Yilie said with a gloomy face: "Everything was arranged by you behind the scenes? You should know that you also sold Ketamine; if you cooperate with the police, won't you have to go to jail?"

Su Xingbai spread his hands and said with a look of contempt: "Who told you I was cooperating with the police? Mo Yilie, everyone says you are cunning, so how could you ask such a stupid question? Where did that cleverness you had when you promoted me to balance out La Jiang go?"

"You..." A look of surprise appeared on Mo Yilie's face: "You have such great ambition, but don't forget, even if you drag me down, La Jiang still exists in Yifeng."

Su Xingbai smiled and said: "Still don't understand when you're at death's door? Actually, the undercover in Yifeng is La Jiang. He is a CIB inspector."

"La Jiang is an undercover?" Hearing Su Xingbai's words, Mo Yilie was even more surprised.

He knew he was at a dead end now, and there was no need for Su Xingbai to lie about this.

Su Xingbai waved his hand and said: "Alright, stop guessing. My Boss's status is beyond your imagination, and from the moment you started importing Ketamine from Thailand into Hong Kong, it was already your death date."

"Enough nonsense, it's time to send you on your way."

As he spoke, Su Xingbai gave a look, and his men grinned as they closed in on Mo Yilie and Tank.

Tank whispered to Mo Yilie: "Boss, you'll have a chance to break out in a moment."

Tank was a thug with no brains; he was able to sit firmly in this position in Yifeng by relying on his loyalty to Mo Yilie.

Even at the end of his rope, he was still thinking of Mo Yilie.

Upon hearing Tank's words, a complex emotion appeared on Mo Yilie's face, and then he slowly nodded.

Tank let out a roar, immediately grabbed the Handgun in his hand, and fired wildly in the direction of Su Xingbai.

He hoped to open a path for Mo Yilie.

Perhaps in ordinary times, such a desperate method might have had some effect.

After all, Su Xingbai's subordinates were never known for their martial prowess.

But today was different; the people Su Xingbai brought were not his previous useless subordinates.

They were a group of Beastkin Infantry brothers given to him by Chen Jiajun.

These bloodthirsty Beastkin Infantry were still wearing heavy bulletproof vests and didn't even know what it meant to dodge.

Facing the charging Tank, they protected their heads with their hands and slammed directly into him.

"What kind of monsters are these?" Tank was dumbfounded on the spot, gritted his teeth, threw away the Handgun that had run out of bullets, and drew a Machete to slash at the nearest Beastkin Infantry.

Unfortunately, the Beastkin Infantry didn't even dodge, caught the Machete in Tank's hand with their bare hands, grinned, and delivered a headbutt to Tank's face, leaving the number one fighter of Yee Fung dizzy and disoriented.

Mo Yilie was filled with despair on the spot; such combat power was simply not something he could resist.

He could only watch helplessly as Tank was hacked into a pulp, and then stabbed in the abdomen by a Beastkin Infantry with a blade.

Su Xingbai was also witnessing the strength of Hung Hing fighters for the first time, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Someone like Tank, who could hold his own even in a large triad, couldn't even last three moves in the hands of Hung Hing fighters.

No wonder Chen Jiajun had no interest in the triad's business anymore and left it all to his subordinates to manage; with Hung Hing's strength, wanting to unify Hong Kong was simply too easy.

Hearing the sound of footsteps coming from afar, Su Xingbai signaled his men to leave immediately.

With Mo Yilie dead and the warehouse raided, there was no one left to block his path.

The next day, the Police Force reported a major breakthrough.

The news of the death of Yee Fung boss Mo Yilie spread immediately.

Although Yee Fung was a small triad, it had been doing very well with Ketamine recently, which had made it famous in the underworld; no one expected Mo Yilie to collapse so quickly.

This made other triads eye the vacant drug market with covetousness.

And within Yee Fung, there was already a chaotic argument.

La Jiang thought Mo Yilie's death was his best chance to rise to power, so he bribed a few uncles to support him during the meeting.

But just at this moment, Su Xingbai spoke up to stop him: "Slow down. This matter is not that simple."

La Jiang immediately bristled: "Kid, with so many uncles speaking, where is it your turn as a junior to interrupt? Is there no sense of hierarchy left?"

Su Xingbai sneered and said: "Brother La Jiang, don't try to pressure me with seniority. Anyone can sit in this seat today, but not you."

"You!" La Jiang glared, looking ready to fight at the slightest disagreement.

At this time, the highly respected Fu Ye in the triad said: "Michael, if you won't allow La Jiang to take the position, you must give a reason. After all, La Jiang has been in the triad for a long time; in terms of seniority and strength, he is qualified to compete for the position of boss."

Su Xingbai sneered and said: "Fu Ye, I'm afraid you don't know that Brother La Jiang has another identity, do you?"

Hearing Su Xingbai's words, La Jiang immediately slapped the table and shouted: "Don't you go around slandering people here, kid."

Su Xingbai spread his hands and said: "I haven't even said anything yet? Brother La Jiang already knows I'm slandering him?"

"You!" La Jiang saw Su Xingbai's confident demeanor and suddenly became a bit nervous.

Although he had been an Undercover in Yee Fung for many years, even within the Police Force, not many people knew his identity.

But because he had been helping Mo Yilie distribute goods recently, his superior Gong Jiapei had already started to suspect him.

If his identity were truly exposed, it would be very troublesome not only for Yee Fung but also for the police side.

Seeing the two slapping tables and chairs, Fu Ye said impatiently: "Michael, if you have something to say, just say it directly; don't keep beating around the bush."

Su Xingbai smiled triumphantly: "Since Fu Ye asked me to speak, then I will. I received word that our Yee Fung's Brother La Jiang is an Undercover from the CIB, a needle planted inside our Yee Fung."

"Nonsense." La Jiang immediately retorted loudly: "How many years have I been in Yee Fung? How many great contributions have I made for the triad? How long have you been in Yee Fung? I say you are the one who looks like a police Undercover."

"Before, you were with Liu Zhanglu, and Liu Zhanglu had bad luck; then you were with Mo Weili, and Weili also ended up in the hospital. Why don't you say you have a problem?"

La Jiang was also very eloquent, and his series of counter-attacks made the uncles of the triad nod secretly.

Su Xingbai said indifferently: "Fine. Then let's start an investigation. But before that, it's best to leave the boss's seat empty; otherwise, if an Undercover becomes the Yee Fung boss, everyone will be in trouble."

Su Xingbai was not anxious about this matter at all; in any case, his main goal now was to prevent La Jiang from taking the boss's seat, which would buy him more time to take La Jiang down.

Hearing Su Xingbai's words, the uncles also felt it made sense.

After a long silence, Fu Ye finally spoke: "What Michael said is not unreasonable. Now that A-Lie's body is not yet cold, it is indeed not the right time to choose a boss. Let's discuss this after A-Lie's seventh-day funeral."

Hearing Fu Ye's words, the uncles all chose to support him.

Now La Jiang had no choice but to stare fixedly at Su Xingbai with sharp eyes.

The murderous intent in his eyes could no longer be contained.

However, Su Xingbai was not very afraid of La Jiang now, not to mention the Chen Jiajun behind him.

Even the Ether Society that was courting him could easily put La Jiang to death; La Jiang's threat was now dispensable to Su Xingbai.

This meeting ended unhappily, and as La Jiang left, he said viciously to Su Xingbai: "Kid, this isn't over between us."

Su Xingbai did not show weakness and said: "Brother La Jiang, you scared me with that talk. You'd better pray that I don't lose a single hair during this time, otherwise, your identity as an Undercover will become real even if it isn't."

"Hmph." La Jiang snorted coldly, took his underlings, and turned to leave. (End of chapter)
