Chapter 417: God of Gamblers? You really think he's a god!
Hong Kong, Sham Shui Po.
This place is considered Hung Hing territory, only Hung Hing hasn't managed it much after taking it over.
Because the people in Sham Shui Po are mostly xenophobic, it's practically the same as the Walled City.
Previously, this place was managed by Jing Ma of Hung Hing, and later Jiang Tianyang managed it on her behalf.
Jiang Tianyang's influence is mostly in Thailand; Sham Shui Po is just managed on the side, so he doesn't pay much attention to it.
This has also given many other gangs the opportunity to come in and find a way to make a living.
However, in Hung Hing territory, as long as you don't look for trouble, the Zha FIT Rens are still quite easy to talk to.
So, all kinds of gray businesses are emerging one after another, and there are even several loan shark companies.
At this moment, Gao Jin is hiding in a hotel in Sham Shui Po.
He had previously lost his memory after accidentally hitting his head, and only recently did he recall some things.
After pondering carefully for a while, he discovered that he had actually been betrayed by his own cousin, Gao Yi.
With no help anywhere and only a small-time crook named Knife to help him, there was no way he could compete with those people.
In desperation, he thought of his former Boss.
Fortunately, he still has a bit of face in front of Chen Jiajun, and Chen Jiajun agreed immediately to send people to help; all he has to do now is wait for the support from Hung Hing to arrive.
But what he doesn't know is that when they went to the loan sharks to rescue Chan To-chai earlier, they had already exposed their tracks and were discovered by Gao Yi.
This guy Gao Yi was originally just a lackey by Gao Jin's side, and all his power was given to him by Gao Jin.
Now that he has seen the outside world, his ambitions have grown.
Taking advantage of Gao Jin's disappearance, he used all his assets to secretly buy the betting odds against Gao Jin, planning to make a fortune.
But when he discovered that Gao Jin had reappeared, he immediately panicked.
If Gao Jin were to win against Chen Jincheng, all the assets he had accumulated over so many years would go down the drain.
So he went directly to find Chen Jincheng's top lieutenant, a Singaporean gangster named Anan.
He planned to join forces with the Singaporean gang to make Gao Jin disappear completely, or at least ensure he could not appear at the gambling tournament.
"Gao Jin really is blind, to actually trust a loser like you!" Anan looked at Gao Yi with disdain.
Although he is a gangster, he despises scum like Gao Yi the most! Gao Yi, feeling no shame but rather pride, said, "Sigh, do you think it's easy to be a successful loser?"
"So what? Now everyone outside is saying that Gao Jin has disappeared!" Anan didn't want to get involved with such scum, because someone who could betray his own cousin Gao Jin today could betray him tomorrow.
Gao Yi sneered and said, "As long as Gao Jin isn't dead, will your boss Chen Jincheng be at ease? What's more, I have already found his whereabouts!"
"Where?" Anan immediately became nervous.
This time, for the gamble between Chen Jincheng and Gao Jin, the Chinese gang in Singapore put in a great deal of effort.
They don't even know how many resources they've used; if they lose, he will be the first one to suffer.
"As long as you cooperate with me, we can take him down! How about it?" Gao Yi said with a smile.
Anan said with disdain, "What do you have?"
"Isn't it enough that I have Gao Jin's whereabouts?" Gao Yi sneered and said, "How about this, I will personally deposit two million US dollars into your account right now. I provide the money, you provide the muscle. If Gao Jin dies, you can vent your anger, I lose a thorn in my side, and Mr. Chen loses an enemy! This is a chance to kill three birds with one stone! Nan Ge!"
After thinking for a moment, Anan pointed at Gao Yi and said, "I can give you the men! Where is the address!"
"Right in Sham Shui Po!" Gao Yi said with an insidious smile.
At this time, in the Regal Hotel in Sham Shui Po.
Gao Jin is hiding in the hotel with Chan To-chai and his underling Wuya.
Because they messed with a loan shark earlier, there are people looking for them everywhere outside.
They don't dare to go out and can only let Chan To-chai's girl go out to get some food.
"Chocolate! Do you think we should run away!" Chan To-chai said with a depressed look.
Gao Jin didn't speak and could only continue to play the fool.
After all, you can know a person's face but not their heart; his identity cannot be exposed yet.
However, he said to Chan To-chai, "I think it's better to hide here!"
"Always hiding here isn't a solution!" Chan To-chai said gloomily.
As the two were chatting, Gao Jin's ears suddenly twitched, and he heard the sound of dense footsteps coming from outside the door.
And they were moving rapidly toward their room.
Gao Jin's expression changed instantly; he grabbed a vase and hid by the door.
Chan To-chai was stunned for a moment, then his face changed drastically: "What's wrong with you? Is there someone outside?"
Gao Jin nodded and then made a gesture for silence.
Chan To-chai also immediately grabbed a chair, ready to act at any moment.
The moment the room door was opened, Gao Jin acted first, smashing the vase directly onto the head of one of the gunmen.
Then he reached out and snatched the handgun from the opponent's hand.
Chan To-chai followed up, and the chair smashed hard onto the second person's head.
With two people injured in a row, the gunmen knew they had been exposed, so they simply aimed directly at the room and opened fire.
Facing the hail of bullets, Gao Jin immediately pulled Chan To-chai to run.
Fortunately, the hotel environment was complex, and with Gao Jin firing back from time to time, the opponents couldn't catch up for a while.
However, Chan To-chai took a long breath and said, "Boss Cheng isn't that petty, right! We just beat him up, and he actually sent gunmen to kill us? Is this guy crazy?"
Gao Jin said coldly, "I'm afraid these people are here for me."
Only then did Chan To-chai react: "Chocolate, did you remember things from before?"
Gao Jin didn't waste words with him, but pulled him along to keep running: "Shut up, if you don't want to die, follow me!"
Chan To-chai was very unaccustomed to the changes in Gao Jin, but seeing how Gao Jin had taken out one person with each shot just moments ago, he still shut his mouth and followed behind him.
After the two of them exited the hotel guest room, they ran straight toward the underground parking garage.
Ten minutes had already passed since he made that phone call; at the speed of Hung Hing, it would take at most another five minutes for people to arrive.
Therefore, Gao Jin prioritized hiding while taking Chan To-chai with him, cautiously observing the situation around them.
However, Gao Yi had brought many men this time, and after a thorough search, they quickly found the hiding spot of Gao Jin and Chan To-chai, and then the gunmen swarmed in.
The vehicles in the underground parking garage were the ones to suffer, getting riddled with holes.
Gao Jin had also snatched guns twice to hold out until now.
As for Chan To-chai, he was nothing but a burden.
Just as the two were about to be forced into a desperate situation, the reinforcements from Hung Hing finally arrived.
The person who came was Datian Er; since the Headman of Sham Shui Po, Jiang Tianyang, was not in Hong Kong, he could only have Datian Er, who was closer, come to put out the fire.
Watching his gunmen being taken out one by one, Gao Yi panicked immediately.
He dared not engage in a firefight with Datian Er's men, so he simply sold out the men under Anan and snuck out of the hotel himself.
After dealing with these gunmen, Datian Er smiled and said to Gao Jin, "Brother Jin, are you alright?"
Gao Jin sighed and said, "I'm fine, I just got bitten on the hand!"
During the firefight earlier when he snatched the guns, Gao Jin had been hit in the arm, and now that he had relaxed, he began to feel the pain.
Datian Er nodded and said, "We have a doctor, we'll take you there now!"
Watching the few of them prepare to leave, Chan To-chai became anxious: "Hey, what about me?"
Gao Jin glanced at him and said, "It will be dangerous if you follow; hide for a while! I will come find you when I have time." Chan To-chai still wanted to say something, but Gao Jin had already boarded Datian Er's car, so he could only shut his mouth.
He was now even more curious about Gao Jin's identity.
……
In the car, Gao Jin closed his eyes, pondering the things that had happened recently.
If his fall and memory loss were just an accident, then being hunted by gunmen could not be explained away as a mere accident.
After arriving at the private clinic, the doctor removed the bullet from Gao Jin's arm.
Gao Jin then said to Datian Er, "Where is Mr. Chen?"
"The Boss is likely still in the United States right now, he should be back very soon." Datian Er asked curiously: "How did the dignified God of Gamblers end up in such a state?"
Gao Jin shook his head and said, "I'm still completely confused!"
"Who are the people hunting you?" Datian Er asked with a dangerous look in his eyes.
Regardless, Gao Jin had once served Hung Hing; as long as one was a Headman of Hung Hing, they could not tolerate people hunting others on their turf in Hong Kong.
Gao Jin frowned and said, "It should be Chen Jincheng's men!"
"Hmm? That Gambling Demon Chen Jincheng who intends to gamble against you on the High Seas?" Datian Er frowned and said: "What is this guy trying to do?"
Gao Jin sneered and said, "Who knows? Perhaps he isn't confident in beating me and plans to use some underhanded tricks! The betting odds for this match were opened by Singaporeans, and it just so happens that Chen Jincheng is a Singaporean!"
Upon hearing this, Datian Er nodded: "No wonder there have been so many new faces in Hong Kong lately; so it's these bastards! I'll mention it to the leader later; I doubt they can stir up any trouble in Hong Kong!"
"Many thanks!" Gao Jin took a deep breath and then said to Datian Er: "Please take me to the Mid-Levels Villa later; my woman and quite a bit of luggage are still at the villa."
"No problem!" Datian Er nodded.
After the wound was treated, Gao Jin took Datian Er and the others back to the villa that Shangshan Hongci had gifted him.
But just as he entered the door, Gao Jin saw his cousin, Gao Yi.
"Brother Jin, are you alright? You've finally returned." Gao Yi said with a smile, though his eyes were full of wariness.
Gao Jin said with some surprise: "A-Yi, I'm fine. By the way, where is Janet?"
Upon hearing this, Gao Yi immediately wore a sorrowful expression on his face, acting as if it were real: "Brother Jin, I've let you down!"
Gao Jin's expression changed instantly, and he hurriedly pressed: "A-Yi, what on earth happened? Tell me quickly!"
Seeing his cousin's expression, Gao Jin immediately had a bad feeling.
Gao Yi said in a low voice: "Ten days after you went missing, I looked for you everywhere! I left Janet alone in the villa. One day, when I returned, I saw that all the glass on the balcony had been shattered! There was a pool of blood left on the floor, and Janet had gone missing!"
"Brother Jin, it's my incompetence for not looking after your wife well; please punish me!"
Gao Jin froze completely, unable to speak for a long time.
He walked silently into the villa, sat alone on the sofa, covered his face, and remained silent.
After a long while, Gao Jin said to Datian Er: "I want to ask a favor of you all."
Seeing Gao Jin in this state, Datian Er said directly: "Don't worry, I will mobilize the people of Hung Hing to help you find your wife."
"Many thanks!" Gao Jin nodded, then said to everyone: "I need to be quiet for a moment now."
Datian Er nodded: "I'll leave men outside the villa and notify you once the Boss returns!"
Gao Jin nodded, then walked into the room to emo by himself.
Gao Yi had not expected Gao Jin to have such a deep connection with Hung Hing, to the point that even a Headman would leave men to protect him.
It was absolutely impossible to make a move now; he would have to pay with his own life before he could even kill Gao Jin.
However, fortunately, Gao Jin had not yet discovered his betrayal, and Gao Yi felt he still had a chance.
Thus, after leaving the house, he went straight to find Anan.
Upon meeting, this Singaporean gangster gave Gao Yi a fierce beating.
He hit Gao Yi until the corners of his mouth bled, and the pain left him unable to stand straight.
Anan cursed in frustration: "You punk, you've caused me such misery, and you still dare to come see me!"
The twenty-plus gunmen under his command were arguably the most elite men he had brought to Hong Kong; he had not expected that not only would they fail to kill Gao Jin, but they would be completely wiped out.
What Anan feared most was that it would only be a matter of time before these gunmen were traced back to him.
The people of Hung Hing were not kind-hearted souls; as outsiders causing trouble on Hung Hing's turf, they would certainly be taught a harsh lesson.
Therefore, Anan vented this foul anger directly onto Gao Yi.
"Nan Ge, listen to me first! I really have a way to make money." Gao Yi was not angry even after being hit, and said directly to Anan.
But Anan did not buy it; the underworld is most skilled at dealing with these kinds of scammers, so he grabbed him by the collar and said viciously: "Where is the two million US dollars you promised me?"
"I will definitely give you the two million, but you have to deal with Gao Jin first!" Gao Yi spread his hands and said.
Anan snorted coldly, grabbed Gao Yi by the collar, and prepared to take action: "You never told me that Gao Jin had a connection with the people from Hung Hing. Now that he is being protected by people from Hung Hing, who can touch him! Are you trying to send me to my death, you bastard?"
Just as Anan was preparing to teach this lowlife a good lesson, a person's voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Anan, don't take action yet!" Chen Jincheng walked in from outside and stopped Anan immediately upon seeing this scene.
Anan clearly held Chen Jincheng in high regard and let go of Gao Yi: "Mr. Chen!"
Chen Jincheng found a sofa and sat down, adopting the posture of a big boss, and said to Gao Yi: "I want to hear what kind of method you have!"
Gao Yi laughed immediately: "Mr. Chen, you are still the best; you understood my meaning as soon as you heard it! The gambling match between you and Gao Jin on the High Seas is being awaited by all the gamblers and underworld brothers in Southeast Asia! The outside betting odds are three to one that Gao Jin will win!"
Chen Jincheng snorted coldly upon hearing this, feeling quite displeased.
During the last God of Gamblers Challenge Tournament, Chen Jincheng had been forced out by the combined efforts of Shi Yijian and Wu Ming, and he had never actually faced Gao Jin; this was the point he found hardest to accept.
Therefore, he waved his hand and said coldly: "Don't talk so much nonsense."
Gao Yi laughed triumphantly and said to Chen Jincheng: "If I can make Gao Jin lose to Mr. Chen, would you say this is a way to make money?"
Chen Jincheng frowned and said: "What method do you have to make me win?"
Afterwards, Gao Yi took out the footage of Gao Jin's recent gambling and handed it to Chen Jincheng.
Then he went to prepare another trump card himself.
Very soon, Chen Jincheng spotted a flaw in Gao Jin from the footage and appeared very pleased.
Just right, Gao Yi had also finished preparing and called the two of them over.
Anan looked at the cards carefully and found nothing peculiar about them.
Gao Yi smiled slightly and took out a pair of glasses to hand to the other party.
Very soon, they were able to clearly see the marks made on the playing cards.
Gao Yi introduced: "This kind of chemical solution requires wearing these Liquid Crystal Imaging Glasses to be seen clearly, because the lenses contain cyanide components, and they must be purchased in the United States."
"I ordered a pair a long time ago; the surface is exactly the same as ordinary glasses, and the production cost is ten thousand US dollars!"
As Gao Yi spoke, he handed a pair of glasses that looked very ordinary to Chen Jincheng.
After Chen Jincheng put them on, he was indeed able to see the secret marks on the playing cards very clearly, and he immediately revealed a smile.
Anan thought for a moment and said: "It's still useless; such a big event will definitely involve someone checking the cards. If someone else also uses Liquid Crystal Imaging Glasses to look at them, wouldn't it be exposed?"
Gao Yi smiled and said: "That's right! Usually, for such a big event, someone will definitely check the cards! Mr. Chen, who will you ask to help you check the cards?"
Anan pointed to himself and said: "Of course it's me!"
"Exactly!" Gao Yi sneered and said: "Gao Jin will also ask me to help him check the cards! If you don't say anything and I don't say anything, who would know that the cards have been tampered with?"
"God of Gamblers? Do you really take him for a deity! Hahahaha!"
Hearing Gao Yi's words, both Chen Jincheng and Anan revealed smiles on their faces.
It has to be said that this kind of lowlife is actually quite useful. (End of chapter)
