Chapter 196: Jing Mom, Dead

The meeting ended, and everyone gradually left the main hall.

At the main hall entrance, Chen Mo held back Thirteen Sister.

"Sister, I reckon the Sān Lián Gang will keep targeting our Great Prosperity leaders. Should I arrange a few people to protect you?"

Although Chen Mo only gave Ding Yao three names, not everyone in the Sān Lián Gang follows Ding Yao's orders.

Chao Ge's death and Chui Shui Ji's injury show that all Great Prosperity leaders are their attack targets.

Chen Mo is confident they can't get the better of him.

Han Bin and Konglong always have quite a few people with them, so there's not much danger.

But Thirteen Sister is in a different situation; she has many female subordinates, but not many junior brothers, so she may not be able to protect her safety.

"Do you have enough manpower over there? I've been staying on Bowlan Street; it's not that easy for them to make a move against me."

Thirteen Sister knows Chen Mo has a group of bodyguards dedicated to protecting his women, but she also knows Chen Mo doesn't have many under his command; each of his women is accompanied by only a few.

Chen Mo replied through the channel: "We have plenty of manpower. How about this: later I'll send a team to find you."

The second batch of veterans that Shen Guodong arranged arrived a few days ago.

Over a hundred people, with twenty female soldiers.

The first batch of more than fifty veterans had long learned the Gangdao dialect.

When the second batch arrived, they were mixed into groups with the first batch, so no time was needed for them to learn the Gangdao dialect.

From the side, Han Bin stepped in: "Ah Mo, why don't you leave Thirteen Sister's protection to me? I'll personally lead people to safeguard her safety."

"To hell with you, what's it to you!" Thirteen Sister gave Han Bin a cold glance.

"I'm just being kind! You know my skills, and my junior brothers are fierce, not inferior to Ah Mo's!"

"Is that so?" Chen Mo gave Han Bin a skeptical look. "The people I send to Sister are veterans I specifically hired from the north, who've seen battle.

Are you sure your junior brothers can match up?"

"Huh? Big Circle Kid?" Han Bin was startled.

"Then forget it. My junior brothers are far stronger than those from other Triad Societies, incomparable to veterans."

Han Bin decisively gave up competing with Chen Mo for the task of protecting Thirteen Sister.

He only wanted to show some courtesy to Thirteen Sister, not to fight over anything.

Just as they were talking, a "Bang" gunshot rang out.

Everyone jumped at the sound and immediately scattered, looking for cover.

Thirteen Sister, Han Bin, and a few others crouched behind the car, cautiously peeking around.

Following his intuition, Chen Mo instantly spotted a tiny silhouette on a distant building, then silently gave it a thumbs‑up.

After the initial panic, hearing no second gunshot, everyone gradually calmed down.

Chen Mo straightened up and shouted, "Who fired? Is anyone injured?"

"What's happening? What's going on?" Jingkun rushed out of the main hall at that moment.

"Jing Mom—"

Uncle Bai's mournful wail reached everyone's ears.

Everyone looked toward the sound.

Not far away, Jing Mom sat in her car, the windshield in front shattered with a huge hole.

A bullet pierced Jing Mom's chest, leaving a fist‑sized void, blood streaming nonstop from the wound.

Uncle Bai was lying on Jing Mom, trying to cover the wound with his hands.

But the sniper round's fist‑sized perforation couldn't be covered at all.

In the breathless moment, many leaders and big‑bottoms gathered around, looking at Jing Mom's corpse, all feeling a wave of terror.

After the terror came raging fury.

At the Great Prosperity main hall entrance, a remote sniper killed a Great Prosperity leader—this is stamping Great Prosperity's face on the ground!

"Damn Sān Lián Gang!"

Sān Lián Gang: "Don't blame me, I didn't do it; go look for Tor."

Tor: "Don't blame me, you should go after Chen Mo; Chen Mo made me do it."

Indeed, Chen Mo ordered Tor to do it.

There's no way; Jing Mom usually stays holed up in her own territory.

Even Tor, Chen Mo can't guarantee he can take her out on Jing Mom's turf.

After learning of the Sān Lián Gang's assassination result last night, Chen Mo guessed there would be a meeting today.

To ensure Tor could eliminate Jing Mom, Chen Mo's email to him included Jing Mom's data, plus details about today's Triad Society meeting and her license plate, and suggested a remote sniping.

Chen Mo originally thought Tor would act on Jing Mom's way back to Shen Shui Bu.

Without much thought, Tor chose the main hall entrance as the spot to act.

If we weren't at war with the Sān Lián Gang now, Jing Mom's death would be directly pinned on them, and today this would have escalated big time.

"Never expected the Sān Lián Gang to be so ruthless, even using a sniper rifle—so damn scary," Thirteen Sister said nervously.

"Ah Mo, you should send your people over soon; I'm getting a bit scared now."

"Alright." Chen Mo nodded, turned to Shen Guodong and instructed, "Guodong, call Li Jie now, have him assemble a team, add two female soldiers, and wait at Sister's venue."

"Alright."

Shen Guodong replied, then stepped aside to call Li Jie.

"Sister, Brother Bin, we should leave quickly. This is Central, the assassin used a sniper, and soon the police will arrive.

If we don't go now, we might get into trouble."

"Right, right, let's go quickly."

After Chen Mo reminded them, several people hurriedly got into their own cars and left.

Chen Mo's voice was loud; besides Thirteen Sister, Han Bin, and a few others, many people around also heard it.

Besides the few people under Madam Jing's command, the rest also left quickly; no one suspected why the killer only killed Madam Jing and then stopped.

Returning to the bar, Chen Mo took out his phone and called Gao Jin.

"Ah Jin, it's been over a month; how is your kung fu consolidation?"

On the other end of the phone, Gao Jin heard Chen Mo's voice and silently smiled: "Mo Ge, I have basically mastered the use of dark energy."

"Is there anything you need me to do?"

"There's something; come to the bar first, we'll talk in person."

Several minutes later, Gao Jin came to Chen Mo's office.

"Mo Ge."

"Here. Sit."

The two sat on the sofa; Chen Mo didn't stand on ceremony with Gao Jin and got straight to the point.

"The Macau boss and the Shen Shui Bu boss—pick one."

With Madam Jing's death, the position of Shen Shui Bu boss also became vacant.

Gao Jin's options increased by one.

After driving out the Triple United Gang, the Macau hall will have two casinos; profits will surely be higher than those of the Shen Shui Bu hall.

But the Macau hall currently has basically nothing; future territory will have to be seized by ourselves.

Moreover, Macau is farther from Gangdao, and the triad relations there are more complicated, which will be troublesome later.

The Shen Shui Bu territory is much larger, but the entertainment industry is less developed than Macau's, so profits will surely be less.

But the territory is large; after Chen Mo takes over Jingkun's territory, there is an opportunity to connect the territories. Doing business on the territory will then be much more convenient.

Chen Mo himself didn't know what to choose for the time being; he could only throw this problem to Gao Jin, since whoever becomes the boss will be him.

As long as he chooses, no matter which, Chen Mo is confident he can help him secure the position.
