Chapter 43

"Listeners, this is Hong Kong Radio."

"According to the latest weather warning issued by the Hong Kong Observatory, it is expected that tomorrow morning, Hong Kong will be hit head-on by a Typhoon Signal No. 8, bringing strong winds and heavy rain, causing significant impact on citizens' lives and traffic."

"This typhoon is expected to start affecting Hong Kong tomorrow morning, accompanied by strong winds... Citizens are urged to take wind and rain protection measures, try to avoid going out, and ensure personal and property safety."

In the taxi,

Chen Yongren sat in the back seat, listening to the radio broadcast.

The typhoon hadn't truly arrived yet, but he could already feel the wind blowing the trees by the roadside, causing them to sway constantly.

Taxi driver Song Zihao glanced through the rearview mirror at the greaseproof paper file bag on Chen Yongren's lap in the back seat.

Then he sized up Chen Yongren.

"Sir, the weather looks like it's going to rain. Are you still going out?"

"..."

Chen Yongren looked out the window and didn't answer, remaining silent.

Song Zihao's attempt failed; he appeared calm on the surface, but his heart was churning.

Who is this person?

Why does the greaseproof paper bag in his hand have my and Ah Jie's names written on it?

Just 10 minutes ago, when Chen Yongren hailed his car, Song Zihao accidentally saw the names "Song Zihao" and "Song Zije" written on the greaseproof paper bag Chen Yongren was holding.

This shocked Song Zihao, making him suspicious.

He had only been back in Hong Kong from Taiwan for a few days after being released from prison, and today was his first day driving a taxi, so such a coincidence occurred.

This forced him to be cautious.

He wasn't afraid of something happening to himself; he was afraid of something happening to his brother, Song Zije.

Therefore, he really wanted to figure out the identity of this passenger.

3 minutes later,

Screech————

The taxi stopped at the entrance of the Yuehai Investment Building.

Song Zihao: "Sir, we're here."

"Thanks." Chen Yongren handed over the money, and Song Zihao lowered his head to give Chen Yongren his change.

Because Chen Yongren was preoccupied with heavy thoughts at this moment, he didn't look closely at Song Zihao; otherwise, with his keen observation skills, he would definitely have discovered that Song Zihao was the Song Zihao in the photo in the file.

But he didn't discover this.

Chen Yongren got out of the car and walked into the Yuehai Investment Building.

Song Zihao got out of the car quickly, put on his hat, lowered the brim, and also walked into the Yuehai Investment Building.

One after the other...

Rooftop,

The typhoon hadn't arrived yet, but the strong winds were already howling.

Wong Chi-shing arrived at the rooftop a step early.

When the rooftop door opened with a "clatter," Wong Chi-shing turned his head and saw Ah Ren walking over.

"Ah Ren!"

"This time, no matter what, you must find evidence of Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's crimes!"

"He's actually running for councilor!"

"We must bring him to justice before he succeeds in the election!"

Wong Chi-shing still thought Chen Yongren was the same Chen Yongren he had been fooling, so he spoke in a very direct, commanding tone.

"Evidence? How do you expect me to find it? He doesn't have any, how can I find it?!"

Chen Yongren looked at Wong Chi-shing with disgust.

Wong Chi-shing was stunned, only then realizing Chen Yongren's state was wrong: "Ah Ren, what's wrong with you?"

Then he suddenly realized,

"Do you want to return to the police force?"

"No problem, as long as you find evidence of Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's crimes and stop him from running for councilor, I'll transfer you back to the police force!"

Chen Yongren was irritable: "Didn't I tell you? He has no evidence of crimes; I can't find it!"

Wong Chi-shing: "It's impossible for there to be none... You haven't found it, which means you haven't reached the core. You can investigate from his confidants, that Ah Wah, and Gao Jin. Aren't you familiar with that Brother Wu Ying?!"

Chen Yongren said coldly: "Brother Wah is currently doing property management and filming movies... and Gao Jin is acquiring garment and shoe factories... How do you expect me to investigate?"

When Wong Chi-shing heard this,

Filming movies?

Garment factory? Shoe factory?

He was so excited he slapped his thigh!

"That's right!"

"This Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu is truly formidable, actually wanting to use this to launder money!"

"Ah Ren, you must investigate clearly; there's definitely a big problem here!"

"And, try to find evidence before the councilor election!"

Chen Yongren turned his head away in disgust.

Wong Chi-shing's face really made him very disgusted.

What money laundering?!

Chen Yongren had long known from Brother Wu Ying what Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu was acquiring these factories for—to provide jobs for the neighbors in Causeway Bay who had no way to make a living.

But when it reached Wong Chi-shing, it became a heinous crime.

Truly, people with dirty minds see everything as dirty!

"Wong Sir, I want to leave the police force!"

Chen Yongren said this sentence coldly.

He didn't want to endure it anymore!

Showdown!

"Ah??" Wong Chi-shing's excited expression came to an abrupt end, and he looked at Chen Yongren fiercely.

His face looked ugly!

"Why?!" "I just don't want to do it anymore!"

"If you don't want to be a cop, do you want to be a gangster?!"

"That's right!"

Chen Yongren's answer this time was very crisp!

If it were before, he would have hesitated, but now, he made this choice without hesitation!

"You're crazy! A perfectly good cop, and you want to be a gangster!" Wong Chi-shing said angrily.

"Yes, I'm crazy!"

Chen Yongren said angrily: "Wong Chi-shing, what did you tell me back then? Just because I have a father and a half-brother who are black, I couldn't be a cop! To be a cop, I could only be an undercover agent!"

"Is that what you said?"

Wong Chi-shing felt guilty for a moment, but on the surface, there was no flaw: "That's right, that's what I said... But what I said was the truth. How could the police force allow someone with a black family background to join? The only way was to be an undercover agent!"

After speaking, Wong Chi-shing became righteous.

!.

"Slap~~~"

Suddenly, a greaseproof paper bag slapped directly onto Wong Chi-shing's left cheek.

Wong Chi-shing felt a burning pain.

He touched it,

And discovered a shallow bloodstain on his left cheek; it was cut, and although not deep, it was oozing blood.

Just as he was about to get angry,

He heard Chen Yongren roar angrily with red eyes: "Look at this document! How do you explain a person named Song Zije, whose brother is a gangster, yet he was allowed to join the police force?!"

Hearing this, Wong Chi-shing's anger seemed to be doused by a bucket of cold water.

"How do you know about him?" Wong Chi-shing asked subconsciously.

"So, you do know him!" Chen Yongren was completely furious.

In order to return to the police force, how had he spent his undercover years? Either he was out hacking people, or on his way to hack people. He was afraid to even shout that he was a cop in his sleep, and he was often checked by police colleagues when he went out... He was truly neither human nor ghost.

And now, reality told him: he didn't need to be an undercover agent at all; he could have joined the police force directly.

All of this was Wong Chi-shing's doing!

Wong Chi-shing was angry: "How do you know about him?"

Chen Yongren sneered: "It was Brother Zu who said it. He said that in the future, he wants everyone's children to walk the straight path, to become lawyers, doctors, police officers, and civil servants!"

"At that time, I argued with him that a gangster's son couldn't possibly become a cop."

"That's when he told me about Song Zije."

Wong Chi-shing cursed: "Brother Zu? You call him Brother Zu? Do you know your identity is a police officer! I think you're crazy; you've been in Hong Xing for so long that you've forgotten your identity as a cop!"

"Damn!"

Chen Yongren was even angrier. Wong Chi-shing, even at this point, still wanted to change the subject.

"Wong Chi-shing!"

"Don't try to change the subject!"

Chen Yongren pushed Wong Chi-shing!

"Why did you stop me from being a cop!"

"Is it because I have a big brother named Ni Yongxiao!"

"You wanted me to go undercover beside Ni Yongxiao and find information for you!"

Wong Chi-shing bit his lip and refused to admit it: "No!"

"Damn!"

Chen Yongren really couldn't take it anymore; he was furious and swung a punch, smashing it into Wong Chi-shing's ugly face.

"Still trying to lie to me!"

"You owe me 6 years!"

"Give them back!"

"Damn you!"

He was too angry and kicked Wong Chi-shing twice.

On the rooftop of the building opposite.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu and Ah Wah held binoculars, watching the showdown between Chen Yongren and Wong Chi-shing.

"Well hit!"

"Wow, that kick is interesting!"

"Ah Ren, your strikes aren't ruthless enough!"

The two looked like spectators, cheering Chen Yongren on.

"Eh..."

Suddenly, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu saw a sneaky person, looking like Ti Lung, hiding not far from Chen Yongren and Wong Chi-shing, seemingly eavesdropping.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu was stunned.

"Who is this?"

At this moment, Ah Wah looked downstairs and let out a surprised sound.

"Brother Zu, look!"

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu looked downstairs, and an unexpected person appeared, rushing into the Yuehai Building.

"My god, why did he run here?!"
