Chapter 199: Jiang Tiansheng Takes Action

A few days later, Hui Gou and Sheng Fan returned to Gangdao.

However, although Hui Gou took several lives, he still managed to kill Li Fu.

Sheng Fan, not knowing whether his mind was broken, went out in broad daylight on the street and attacked Liao Zhizong with his men.

The result was predictable: not only did he fail to kill Liao Zhizong, he was injured himself and put on the wanted list by the Wan Island police.

Fortunately his luck held out; in the end he was still able to return to Gangdao alive.

During these days, the San Lian Bang's assassinations of Great Prosperity's leaders also did not cease.

Several big shots were again targeted for assassination.

However, everyone had taken precautions, always keeping many people around them.

The San Lian Bang's several assassination attempts all returned fruitlessly.

For the mutual assassinations between Great Prosperity and the San Lian Bang, the most troubled are the police of Gangdao and Macau.

Whether Jingkun or Ding Yao, both received police warnings, hoping the two sides could sit down to negotiate.

However, during this sensitive period, Ding Yao dared not come to Gangdao, and Jingkun was unwilling to go to Macau.

The negotiations could not take place at all; the police warnings were treated as nothing.

"Mo Ge, the situation is a bit off."

At high noon, Ahua rushed into Chen Mo's office, sweating profusely.

"What's happened?"

"Take a look at this, it's from Huang Ziyang."

Ahua took out his pager and handed it to Chen Mo.

The pager is now the most mainstream personal communication device; not everyone has a mobile phone.

The message on it, sent by Huang Ziyang not long ago, read: "The police station is taking action; prepare in advance."

Since the last time he was caught on video, under Ahua's combined pressure of threats and monetary temptation, Huang Ziyang has become Ahua's inside source at the Mong Kok Police Station.

This kind of message would not be sent without purpose.

Chen Mo frowned at the message and asked, "Did you call Huang Ziyang?"

"His phone went unanswered; I had someone pose as his family to contact him, and the police station said they have a confidential operation, asking us not to contact him for now."

"Mo Ge, could the police station be planning some big move against us?"

Ahua's tone was full of worry.

"Alright, stop worrying; at most we just run a few gambling stalls, collect some protection money—how big a deal could that be?" Chen Mo said calmly.

Chen Mo thought Ahua's reaction was the Triad Society members' instinctive fear of the police.

On his turf, besides a few gambling stalls, protection fees, and the ladies in the venue, there were also counterfeit liquor.

Beyond those, there was no other illegal activity.

Even if caught by the police, it's just a matter of paying a small bail; nothing serious.

"Go back first; don't tell anyone about this for now, wait until I find someone to investigate."

After sending Ahua away, Chen Mo stroked his chin.

Now Huang Ziyang and Ahua are like grasshoppers on the same rope; his message is certainly not a joke.

Since there's a confidential operation, it prevents him from sending messages outward.

Anyway, for the messages Huang Ziyang can't send, Chen Mo can turn to Huang Bingyao.

"Who?"

"Buy a horse!"

"Boss, the number 9 horse is in the best condition today; do you plan to buy three thousand or five thousand?"

"I don't want the number 9 horse; I want the number 6 horse!"

"The number 3 horse is also good; would you like to buy the number 3 horse?"

"I also don't want the number 3 horse; I only want the number 6 horse."

"Ah Mo, you haven't called me in a long time; is there any good news for me again?"

Huang Bingyao's voice remained sleazy.

"None. This time contacting Chief Inspector Huang is to ask you for some information; is that convenient?"

"Dammit, you deadbeat, what are you thinking! I'm the Chief Inspector; would I betray the police station's intel?"

Before Chen Mo could say what information he wanted, Huang Bingyao immediately refused.

"My subordinates recently uncovered several of your police informants; do you think I should clean them up?"

When the Triad Society discovers police informants, what should they do? Of course, eliminate them!

Chen Mo is using the informants' lives to threaten Huang Bingyao.

"Damn, you think I don't understand you! You're not that kind of person; you can't threaten me."

"The few karaoke singers you ordered in my venue last time seem to have charged my account; should I ask my sister‑in‑law to collect the money back?"

"Speak up, what information are you after?" Huang Bingyao, startled, was caught at a soft spot by Chen Mo.

"Hehe." Chen Mo laughed twice, then asked, "Is the Mong Kok Police Station planning some big move?"

"Damn! How did you know?" Huang Bingyao was shocked.

"Is it really happening? Then why didn't you tell me and wait for me to ask?"

"This was arranged by the headquarters; they have seized Jingkun's drug‑smuggling route, planning a sudden attack."

"You don't traffic drugs, so this has nothing to do with you; why would I tell you?"

"Don't tell me you also take part in drug smuggling!"

"Damn, am I that kind of person?" Chen Mo said irritably, "Alright, that's it."

"Don't hang up!" On the other end of the line, Huang Bingyao said anxiously.

"You're the boss now; give me some more info so I can earn some merit!"

"No, I'll let you know if I get any later."

Having said that, regardless of Huang Bingyao's reaction, Chen Mo hung up directly.

After learning that the police's target was Jingkun, Chen Mo's first reaction was that Jiang Tiansheng had made a move.

Chen Mo would take this opportunity to get rid of Jingkun's mother and pin the blame on the Three United Gang.

Could it be that Jiang Tiansheng wouldn't do that?

He could completely take this chance to eliminate Jingkun and likewise blame it on the Three United Gang.

During the months when he wasn't the Dragon Head, Big B, Uncle Xing, and Jingkun's mother were taken out one after another; if he doesn't return to Great Prosperity now, he may never have another chance to do so.

The police's move against Jingkun is probably Jiang Tiansheng's attempt to completely eradicate Jingkun's forces.

Assuming nothing unexpected, the timing of the police operation should be about the same as when Jiang Tiansheng moves against Jingkun.

Moreover, Jingkun now places great importance on his own safety, always surrounded by many protectors wherever he goes; taking him out won't be easy.

Having figured this out, Chen Mo immediately summoned Shen Guodong.

"A Dong, take a few brothers and keep close watch on Jingkun's movements. If someone moves against Jingkun, don't intervene; just keep an eye on the person who made the move.

Do you understand?"

Uncle Xing and Jingkun's mother are already dead, Chen Hao Nan's whereabouts unknown, and the opponent we face is again the Dragon Head of Great Prosperity.

Jiang Tiansheng's usable forces certainly won't be those out in the open.

Chen Mo has long wanted to uncover the hidden manpower Jiang Tiansheng keeps concealed; now he finally has a chance to do so.

"Right, bring Ahua; if anyone moves against Jingkun, have him record it."

After Shen Guodong left, Chen Mo also gave instructions to his personal secretary Li Li.

"Li Li, notify them to drop what they're doing and come here for a meeting."
