Chapter 20

"Ah Qiu, do you have a girlfriend?"

Causeway Bay, Lockhart Road, bustling with traffic; the sounds of cars, horns, pedestrians bickering, and chatting were endless...

Guan Zu walked along Lockhart Road with Su Jianqiu, patrolling. As Guan Zu, who always wanted to do good deeds, this was one way he looked for them.

Su Jianqiu smiled: "I do, Brother Zu."

Although he didn't want to admit it, he couldn't hide the girlfriend part; many people over at Wo Luen Shing already knew he had one.

Guan Zu nodded: "Having a girlfriend is good. As a man, you have to treat women well... How did you two meet?"

Su Jianqiu laughed: "A hero saving a beauty, you know..."

Under Guan Zu's curious questioning, Su Jianqiu explained that Yuan Keer was being harassed by thugs at the time, and Su Jianqiu stepped in to save her. Later, because he was handsome, the two got together.

Guan Zu smiled: "When are you getting married?"

Married?

Su Jianqiu was stunned for a moment. Being an undercover cop, was it really okay to get married?

Guan Zu patted Su Jianqiu on the shoulder: "If conditions allow, get married... Although we are thugs, a man still needs to have responsibility. If you both like each other, just get married... If you don't have money, I'll lend it to you. Low interest, you can pay it back in five or ten years."

Only Guan Zu knew what he was thinking.

Su Jianqiu couldn't help but be moved upon hearing Guan Zu's caring words.

However, this emotion was quickly suppressed by him.

Just then,

A lackey thug walked over quickly.

"Brother Zu!"

Then he whispered a few words in Guan Zu's ear, and Guan Zu's expression immediately turned ugly.

"When did this happen?"

"Not sure, but it should have been a long time ago."

"Lead the way."

"Yes, Brother Zu."

The thug led the way in front, and Guan Zu walked quickly with a dark face.

Su Jianqiu didn't know what had happened to make Guan Zu so angry, so he followed quickly.

Not long after,

Guan Zu and Su Jianqiu arrived at a relatively old building, at least one built in the 40s, already very old.

"Brother Zu!"

"Brother Zu!"

Some residents saw Guan Zu and hurriedly greeted him respectfully.

Guan Zu nodded in response.

Soon, they arrived at one of the households. The door was wide open, and the sound of a little girl crying came from inside.

Guan Zu and Su Jianqiu walked in. Inside was a living room, messy and dirty, clearly not cleaned in a long time, emitting a strange, unpleasant smell.

The living room had a sofa and a table. Sunlight shone in from the window, hitting a pile of syringes on the table.

Guan Zu's expression turned cold.

Su Jianqiu's expression changed; this was drug use.

And it was already in the late stages. Generally, drug users start by smoking, but as that stops satisfying them, they move to injecting, starting with veins... later, when veins fail, they move to leg arteries and neck arteries, but that has a very high fatality rate...

The syringes on the table indicated that this person was already in the late stages.

His gaze turned to a woman on the sofa, dazed, her hair clearly not washed in many days, covering most of her face.

Guan Zu ignored her and walked straight ahead into a room, seeing a man lying on the bed with several pieces of foil on it, his mental state suggesting he was in the stage of being high.

This man...

Guan Zu looked at Su Jianqiu; the two looked three-tenths alike.

Gu Zai?

So the woman outside was Ah Fen?

And the little girl was squatting in the corner, crying continuously.

"Ah Qiu," Guan Zu beckoned.

"Brother Zu," Su Jianqiu responded hurriedly.

Guan Zu said with disgust: "Call the police, drag these two drug addicts away for rehab... And as for this girl, you take care of her for the time being, I'll cover the costs."

Su Jianqiu was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Alright, Brother Zu."

Soon, the Wan Chai police arrived at high speed.

Coincidentally, it was He Wenzhan's squad again.

"Mr. Guan..."

"The situation is like this..." Guan Zu explained everything. "Drag these two away to rehab for me. As for this little girl, don't send her to an orphanage for now; I'll find time to buy an orphanage..."

He Wenzhan nodded and directed his subordinates to quickly drag Gu Zai and Ah Fen away without any hesitation.

At this time, the dazed Gu Zai and Ah Fen realized something was wrong and wanted to resist, but how could they? They were handcuffed and dragged away directly.

Before leaving, Ah Fen pointed at Gu Zai and cried: "He instigated me, I'm innocent... He was using drugs, I advised him not to, he said he couldn't quit, so I wanted to try it to prove to him that it could be quit..."

Gu Zai shouted: "No, you're lying..." The couple started arguing...

Guan Zu asked Su Jianqiu: "Tell me, between the husband and wife, who started using first?"

Su Jianqiu said: "The woman, her neck already has needle marks, while the man doesn't..."

Guan Zu nodded: "I think so too..."

Sure enough, Su Jianqiu was a talent with good observation skills.

The system sound rang out.

"You have dealt with a drug-using family and will receive a reward for good deeds..."

"You have gained +1 Body Strength."

This reward was not bad.

Guan Zu went downstairs, Su Jianqiu following with the girl. Perhaps because her father looked a bit like Su Jianqiu, she wasn't afraid of him at all, but rather a bit affectionate.

"Ah Qiu."

!.

"Brother Zu."

Guan Zu: "I'll give you a task for this period: investigate the charity orphanages in Causeway Bay, buy one, and you'll be the director."

Su Jianqiu: "????"

He was a bit dazed.

Wait, I'm here to be an undercover cop, how did I become an orphanage director?

But he couldn't exactly object, could he?

And, being an orphanage director was better than fighting and killing like other undercover cops, right?

"By the way, there's another task."

"Brother Zu, please speak."

"I don't allow anyone using drugs in my territory... You mobilize the neighbors, check who is using drugs, and report them all to me... Also, check who is moving drugs in Causeway Bay and report them to the Narcotics Bureau."

Su Jianqiu's heart skipped a beat.

Now, whenever he heard "Narcotics Bureau," he couldn't help but feel guilty.

Guan Zu looked sideways at Su Jianqiu: "What? Why are you dazed?"

Su Jianqiu hurriedly said: "Yes, I'll get it done."

Guan Zu patted Su Jianqiu on the shoulder: "Do your work well, you won't go wrong following me!"

Su Jianqiu nodded: "Yes, Brother Zu!"

Night fell,

Su Jianqiu's home.

Su Jianqiu wasn't as wealthy as he would be later, owning a villa; currently, he still lived in a tenement building.

When Su Jianqiu got home, he brought the little girl back. He had already given her a bath at the company and changed her clothes; although not beautiful, she was cute.

His girlfriend, Yuan Keer, had received Su Jianqiu's call two hours ago and was quite sympathetic toward the little girl.

Night, 11 o'clock.

Su Jianqiu received a call, went downstairs, and drove to the seaside in Chai Wan.

The coastline was quiet and deserted, filled with darkness, with only the sound of waves echoing and the lights of Lei Yue Mun across the sea reflecting over.

"Ah Qiu, over here..."

Behind a rock, Ma Haotian and Zhang Ziwei were waiting for him, along with beer.

"How is it? Is it dangerous over there?"

Ma Haotian patted Su Jianqiu on the shoulder, a bit worried.

Su Jianqiu shook his head: "No danger. Guan Zu still values me quite a bit, making me a Street Chief... Oh, a Street Chief is someone who manages an entire street..."

"By the way, I reported a drug user today..."

"And he let me take in a little girl..."

"He said he wants me to acquire an orphanage during this time and make me the director..."

Su Jianqiu explained everything that had happened over the past few days.

Ma Haotian: "............"

Zhang Ziwei: "............"

The two were silenced directly.

Wait,

Didn't you go there to be an undercover cop?

How come the things you're doing seem more positive than being a police officer?

Thanks to Feng Ren Kun Chicago for the 500-point tip!
