Chapter 474: Black and White Battlefield

At Long Laosi's home, his subordinates, the "Four Heavenly Kings," had all arrived.

Aside from Pite Zai, who was not qualified to sit at the table, Xin Ni, Bomb, and Coffin had already been sitting in the courtyard for a while.

Long Laosi's wife came over to ask if they wanted to eat anything, but no one spoke.

It was evident that this Big Brother's woman was not a tactful or perceptive person.

After Long Laosi's wife left, Bomb could not help but speak up: "If someone wants to kill you, there has to be a reason, right?"

Coffin continued, "We've been running legitimate businesses all these years; how could we have enemies when we don't meddle in anything?"

Xin Ni also chimed in: "Fourth Brother, what did the Police tell you?"

Long Laosi scanned the group and then said: "He said I've retired, but I'm still holding onto that 120 million in public funds."

The group looked at each other, and then Xin Ni spoke first: "Someone wants to take this money?"

"We all run legitimate businesses, how could that be?" Coffin, the oldest, said indifferently.

At this point, anyone who wasn't a fool would not admit to wanting the public funds; otherwise, they would be the prime suspect for being the mastermind who hired the hit.

Bomb, being very cunning, simply threw the question back to Long Laosi: "Fourth Brother, what is your take?"

Long Laosi smiled and sat down, addressing the three: "I don't want to touch the rights and wrongs of the underworld anymore! I invited you all over today because I want to discuss something with you."

"I've been a bit tired these past two years, so I plan to wash my hands of this life! To avoid trouble, let's just split this public fund... everyone take a share! My own territories will also be divided among you all!"

"However, I want to get everyone's consent to give an extra share to Peter!"

Hearing Long Laosi's words, all three stopped what they were doing. Xin Ni, in particular, was the most dissatisfied and said coldly: "He gets one too?"

Bomb followed up: "What? Him? What has he ever done?"

"That doesn't matter much," Coffin said with a smile. "Peter is Fourth Brother's godson and a talent! But he's still very young right now; if we give him a huge sum of money, the brothers won't be convinced! Fourth Brother, why not let me keep his share for safekeeping? Once he has some achievements, I'll hand the money over to him!"

"We're all thousand-year-old foxes, what kind of ghost stories are you playing with me?" Xin Ni said unhappily. "What qualifications do you have? I have the most brothers, the most territory, and the most hardware. I contributed the most to this 120 million in public funds, so logically, I should be the one to get an extra share!"

"Hahaha, hahaha!" Long Laosi laughed out loud. "I've always said you are my good brothers! But as soon as we talk about splitting money, everything changes... You want more, and you want more? Because your contributions are great? Then am I still your Big Brother?"

Hearing Long Laosi's words, Xin Ni's expression immediately turned gloomy.

"Fourth Brother, don't be so hot-tempered when you speak!" Coffin also lost his composure and retorted to Long Laosi.

"I'm hot-tempered? Who is making me this hot-tempered? It's you lot!" Long Laosi slapped the table and said: "I'm not splitting the public funds anymore!"

Xin Ni had long been dissatisfied with Long Laosi and said coldly: "Then why call us over to talk? You're the boss, you make the calls!"

Saying this, Xin Ni stood up, buttoned his jacket, and said: "I have an appointment with a client to talk business. If there's anything, call me, and I'll be there immediately!"

As he spoke, he walked over to Peter, who was beside Long Laosi, and said in a flippant tone: "How lucky, your Godfather dotes on you so much; I should go find one too!"

Watching Xin Ni's back, Long Laosi sneered: "This man is truly ungrateful! He has already forgotten that he used to be the underling who parked cars for me!"

Since they had already fallen out, Coffin and Bomb also stood up, preparing to leave.

However, this matter clearly would not end so easily.

Everyone present was harboring ulterior motives, and each was greedier than the last; Long Laosi was very clear on this point.

But to pave the way for his son, whoever jumped the highest would be the first one he dealt with!

The affairs of Hongyi were not for outsiders to interfere with.

A fierce look appeared in Long Laosi's eyes.

"Heh, Hongle, Changyi, and the 14K—each one is more restless than the last!"

Chen Jiajun sneered as he looked at the information handed over by Laoyu.

During this time, Chen Jiajun not only had Laoyu keep an eye on the situation at Hongyi but also paid attention to matters in the underworld.

As the time for the handover drew closer, these societies in the underworld became increasingly frantic.

Some even began to ignore Chen Jiajun's ban and started selling No. 4 in Hong Kong.

In other words, these societies that couldn't go clean were now trying to squeeze every bit of value out of this land of Hong Kong.

Once they got enough money, they would decisively run off to foreign countries.

Therefore, even with Chen Jiajun's deterrence, they didn't care much anymore.

"Which bastard is selling the most No. 4 right now?" Chen Jiajun asked coldly.

Laoyu pointed to a file in front of Chen Jiajun and said: "It's this guy! Ou Wangui, nicknamed Menggui!"

"What's his background?" Chen Jiajun asked with a frown.

"He used to be with the Big Circle, but he quickly left them to set up his own shop!" Laoyu shook his head and said: "So this guy is working solo now. He carved out a territory in Chaguoling and specializes in recruiting those South Asian refugees as Majai. In the underworld, he can be considered to have a certain amount of power!"

"South Asians?" Chen Jiajun frowned and said: "Where is the refugee camp?"

Laoyu nodded and said: "That's right, it's the refugee camp. This bastard is very smart; he hides in the refugee camp where no one dares to provoke him. He has trained quite a few South Asian blade-wielders, and even the Police can't get in!"

"Sounds a lot like a miniature Kowloon Walled City!" Chen Jiajun said with a smile.

"Exactly, that's the idea!" Laoyu nodded: "Now, the Police don't even want to go to that hellhole! Those South Asian refugees have worthless lives to begin with; no one wants to trade one-for-one with these people!"

Chen Jiajun stroked his chin and said: "Sounds very tricky!"

"It's not just usually tricky. Last time, this guy snatched a shipment of goods from the 14K, which provoked Huxu Yong of the 14K to personally lead men to have a shootout with him. In the end, both sides actually fought to a draw. The 14K lost over a dozen men, and it just ended up being swept under the rug."

Laoyu said mysteriously: "I heard this guy also has a team of people who work specifically for him that are very sharp. They've eliminated quite a few of his competitors. The reason he can make a name for himself in the underworld now is largely because of this trump card!"

Chen Jiajun immediately laughed: "Interesting. Have the Information Department look into that mysterious trump card of Menggui's!"

Laoyu nodded: "By the way, Boss, over at Hongyi, Long Laosi has fallen out with his subordinates. I estimate that a conflict will break out before long!"

"Very good. What about Long Laosi's son?"

"Found him. The kid is called Fazai! But all these years, he's just been practicing boxing and playing with guns with Achai; he doesn't understand anything else. He's just a dim-witted kid!" Laoyu shook his head: "If Long Laosi really lets him take over, I reckon many of his subordinates won't be convinced."

Chen Jiajun sneered: "Not convinced? Believe it or not, those who aren't convinced by this kid will eventually be killed by Long Laosi! Forget it. Since he's just a blade-wielder, I assume he isn't very smart either. Once Long Laosi deals with his own subordinates, just let the Police take him out!"

"You go find someone to take out the oldest one, Coffin, then frame it on the other two. Remember to find Vietnamese gunmen; don't use our own people!"

Laoyu looked puzzled and said: "Why! Only if our own people do it will it not leave any flaws!"

Chen Jiajun said irritably: "I *want* to leave flaws! You bastards kill like ghosts; the Police can't even investigate it. Who would know who did it? What I want is to frame them!"

Lao Yu suddenly realized: "I understand, Boss!"

"It just so happens that in a few days it will be Guancai's mother's birthday; with many people and eyes around, that is the time to make a move!" Chen Jiajun tapped the table and said.

……

A few days later, it was the birthday of Hongyi Hall Master Guancai's mother. A crowd of Hongyi Majai arrived at the hotel early to show their support.

Long Laosi arrived a little late, and as soon as he entered the door, he greeted Guancai.

It was as if the falling out at his house a few days ago had never happened.

At the main table, Xin Ni and Zhadan looked at Long Laosi's back and sneered, saying: "That matter caused such a big scene, and he only brought two bodyguards? Is he that bold?"

Xin Ni said indifferently: "There are two that can be seen, but as for those that cannot be seen, who knows how many there are!"

Xin Ni was not wrong at all, because besides the two bodyguards at Long Laosi's side.

A Chai brought Long Laosi's son Fazai, along with several blade-wielders, who also mixed into the banquet to act as Long Laosi's shadows.

If anyone dared to make a move on Long Laosi right now, they would surely die more miserably than a pig.

On the other side, Guancai and Long Laosi sat at a mahjong table.

Long Laosi lowered his voice and said: "Did you find anything?"

"My men told me that several Thailand assassins have already mixed in, and they have found a contact to get Handguns!" Guancai looked around and also whispered to Long Laosi.

It was very clear that when they had the falling out at Long Laosi's house that day, only Guancai had not taken it seriously.

He was even secretly helping Long Laosi investigate news of the assassins.

Clearly, Guancai was just putting on a show for the other two.

Long Laosi continued to ask: "Do you know where the people are?"

Guancai shook his head and said: "I'm not sure, but I have already let the brothers go look for them!"

"Don't be too flashy; we have already retired, just capture them alive," Long Laosi instructed.

Guancai nodded and said: "I understand, there are Police outside monitoring, the most important thing is to find the mastermind!"

"What a good brother, you are practically the roundworm in my belly!" Long Laosi said with a smile.

Guancai also smiled and said: "I'm afraid this roundworm was put into the belly by myself."

"Hahaha, Hu!" Long Laosi laughed and tipped over his mahjong tiles.

A birthday banquet is just inviting friends and family to have a meal, and by the way, collect some gift money and such.

After all, hosting banquets is also an excellent way for these Hong Kong bosses to rake in money.

Ordinary people, as long as they have a normal brain, would not come to cause trouble at this time; after all, causing a scene at Guancai's banquet would be failing to give the host face.

But there just happen to be people with abnormal brains, such as Gui Ge from Yuen Long.

This guy went to A Chai's small shop to cause trouble last time and was beaten up fiercely by Fazai, so he was still feeling resentful.

Seeing this group of people at the birthday banquet, he immediately rushed over to cause trouble! "Country bumpkins, you've entered the city? If you're smart, hand over the girl!" Gui Ge brought his underlings and said with an arrogant face: "Otherwise, you definitely won't make it home alive!"

Fazai was just about to make a move, but was tightly held back by A Chai.

A Chai said with a fawning face: "Gui Ge, can you give the host some face? Whatever the matter is, let's talk about it tomorrow!"

"Bastard, when is it your turn to speak!" Gui Ge was the type who typically bullied the weak and feared the strong.

Seeing that A Chai and his group were a bit cowardly, he immediately climbed all over them.

But at this moment, a wine bottle smashed fiercely onto his bald head, and then Peter rushed over with a group of people, saying viciously: "It's Brother Guancai's mother's birthday, and you come here to cause trouble? If you want to play, I'll play with you!"

"I'm sorry! Brother Peter!" After A Gui saw clearly who it was, he immediately said in a low voice.

"Drag him into the restroom!" Peter said coldly, then quickly left with his underlings.

Such a small interlude did not affect the progress of the banquet at all.

After the banquet, Long Laosi and Guancai went to the underground parking lot to prepare to go home.

But just as they were exiting the parking lot toll, they were suddenly stopped by guys wearing security uniforms.

"Sir, I'm sorry, our system seems to have a small problem," a security guard wearing a uniform apologized hurriedly.

But at this moment, Long Laosi, sitting inside the car, suddenly heard a burst of rapid footsteps.

Then he saw another security guard wearing a uniform appear behind the car, and in his hand, he was holding a Sanjiaqiang.

"Boom!"

After a loud explosion, countless steel pellets attacked the vehicle, immediately riddling the car's windshield with holes.

Long Laosi dodged relatively quickly and avoided this wave of attacks.

But the driver and the bodyguard in the front seat did not have such good luck.

A cloud of blood mist exploded from their chests on the spot.

The remaining bodyguards and Guancai's underlings reacted very quickly and immediately drew their Handguns to exchange fire with the opponents.

But the bodyguard who had previously been blocking the front of the car also took out a submachine gun and sprayed both cars with gunfire.

Under the pincer attack from left and right, Long Laosi and Guancai were beaten without any power to fight back.

Both of them were men who had been bosses, and this kind of thing was not something they hadn't encountered before.

Taking advantage of the time when the security guards were exchanging fire with the underlings, they took their guns and quietly got out of the car, only returning fire after confirming it was safe.

Although the opponent's firepower was fierce, they couldn't withstand the fact that Long Laosi had more people here, and reinforcements would arrive soon; they only needed to stall for time, and the longer they dragged it out, the more advantageous it was.

Very quickly, Guancai's underlings rushed over and shot dead both assassins who were pretending to be security guards.

Only then did Guancai walk out from behind cover: "Damn it, these lunatics!"

An angry Guancai picked up his Handgun and prepared to whip the corpses of the two assassins.

Long Laosi had just wanted to speak up to warn him, but at this moment, a huge gunshot rang out from afar again.

Subsequently, Guancai himself fell to the ground in response, and his underlings were also wiped out by the powerful firepower in one wave.

At this moment, the only person left alive at the scene was Long Laosi; he tried hard to lower his presence so as not to make a sound, waiting for his own underlings to rush over.

The killer began to check the corpses one by one, and just as he was about to reach the place where Long Laosi was hiding, a burst of dense footsteps suddenly came from the fire escape, and the killer immediately turned and ran.

After the killer had run off, Long Laosi finally ran to the side of Coffin: "Coffin, Coffin!"

At this moment, Achai finally arrived with Fazai and his group: "Brother Si, are you alright?"

Seeing that Coffin could no longer be saved, Long Laosi said to Achai and the others: "I'm fine, you all leave quickly, the Police will be here soon, follow the original route and lead them away!"

Afterward, Long Laosi checked the killer's corpse and discovered that he was not from Thailand, but rather... from Vietnam! (End of chapter)
