Chapter 447: 445 The Viceroy
"Your underling has completed a good deed in San Francisco +1..."
"Your underling has completed a good deed in San Francisco +1..."
"Your underling has completed a good deed in San Francisco +1..."
When Director Guan Zu arrived in the evening, he felt the system prompts popping up continuously, originally they were only in Chinatown, but they gradually expanded to San Francisco.
Obviously, Xiao Fu's side had already started 'offering rewards', no one could refuse USD.
"Must take it slow..."
"Can't rush..."
This is an operation that will last at least half a year for the Five Star Group to officially stand firm in San Francisco... very firm.
"Ring ring ring~~~"
"Brother Zu, late-night snack~~"
Situ Situ Jie said on the other side of the phone.
Director Guan Zu: "Alright, come to Causeway Bay, a new braised late-night snack stall opened here."
Half an hour later,
300 meters away from Director Guan Zu's house, on the next street, a braised late-night snack stall was located at the corner of the street, and the popularity was still quite high.
Under the lights, the boss was skillfully cutting various braised foods; duck necks, duck wings, pig trotters, and chicken feet were neatly arranged on the plate, emitting an enticing aroma.
More than a dozen tables and chairs around were full of people who came to eat late-night snacks, everyone eating braised food while talking.
When Director Guan Zu, Gong Wei, and Ah Xing arrived, they saw Situ Situ Jie had already found a table and was waiting.
Gong Wei looked at a Five Star underling, and that Five Star underling nodded to Gong Wei.
Seeing Director Guan Zu walking over, Situ Situ Jie hurriedly stood up to greet him.
After Director Guan Zu and the three sat down, they ordered a few plates of braised food and a dozen beers.
Director Guan Zu picked up a bottle of beer and clinked it with Situ Situ Jie.
"This time, you were implicated by me."
"No, no, you and I are allies, how can we say such things as being implicated? If it weren't for you, I would still be a Chief Superintendent."
Situ Situ Jie was still very grateful to Director Guan Zu, and besides gratitude, there was also awe, so he positioned himself very correctly.
Although this matter was indeed because of the conflict between Director Guan Zu and the Viceroy, he was implicated.
However, he would not think it was Director Guan Zu's fault.
In the year or so of cooperation with Director Guan Zu, he learned many things; Director Guan Zu's rapid rise and success stemmed from Director Guan Zu's series of excellent qualities: being good to subordinates, generous to friends.
Such an ally is hard to find in ten thousand!
As Director Guan Zu's friend, he was very relieved that Director Guan Zu would not treat him badly.
On the other hand, the interaction with Director Guan Zu had already influenced Situ Situ Jie's way of behaving, valuing subordinates more; if an event similar to "Raging Fire" really happened, he would definitely choose to protect his subordinates.
Director Guan Zu's energy field was constantly influencing the people around him.
Director Guan Zu picked up a duck neck and took a bite:
"You don't have to be sad either, the Criminal and Security Department is a real frontline department..."
"Commercial Crime Bureau, Criminal Intelligence Bureau, Financial Intelligence and Investigation Bureau, Narcotics Bureau, O-Unit, which of these departments is not important?"
"As long as the 'Fang Jiexia New Ordinance' is still there, promotion on the front line will be fast, and you can win over a large number of subordinates to become your direct line... by then, won't the police force be whatever you say?"
Situ Situ Jie was just a bit unhappy, and after being said so by Director Guan Zu.
Heh~
Makes sense!
Situ Situ Jie smiled: "Brother Zu is right, the 'Fang Jiexia New Ordinance' is good!"
Director Guan Zu picked up the beer bottle: "Toast to Fang Jiexia!"
Situ Situ Jie picked up the beer bottle: "Toast to Fang Jiexia!"
Bang~
Cheers!
Thinking of Fang Jiexia, the two of them laughed.
How could Fang Jiexia be a bad person?
You misunderstood her; she entered the game with her body and won half a game against heaven!
A new day,
Viceroy's Mansion,
Fat Peng listened to the report from Police Commissioner Dai Weisi, although he was dissatisfied with the Criminal and Security Department being held by Huang Bingyao, he didn't say anything.
And as for the Hong Kong Island District Headquarters being taken back, he was still very happy.
"Contact the newspapers and TVB immediately, and report on this Commander Zheng!"
"I want all Hong Kong citizens to know him."
"Only in this way can we wash away the traces of Huang Bingyao and Situ Situ Jie, and make Commander Zheng more convincing."
This is—the Viceroy's god-making plan!
Aren't you Director Guan Zu very good at using TV media to promote your teammates?
Then I will use the same method!
Dai Weisi was serious: "Yes, Viceroy!"
Very quickly,
Dai Weisi, through his connections, began to contact TVB and some newspaper bosses.
TVB sent reporters very quickly to the Hong Kong Island District Police Station for an interview.
Zheng Songren was naturally very happy; he wouldn't refuse such news, after all, it wasn't ATV news, but TVB news.
If it were ATV news, he might have to be vigilant.
At noon,
TVB news reported the news of Zheng Songren's transfer to the Hong Kong Island District Headquarters.
"Hello, audience friends!"
Fourth news...
"Yesterday, the Hong Kong Island District Police Station will welcome a new Commander, Assistant Commissioner of Police Zheng Songren is about to take office as the Commander of the Hong Kong Island District Headquarters."
"Commander Zheng Songren once served as the person in charge of the Headquarters Division of the Criminal and Security Department, Chief Superintendent, and demonstrated excellent professional quality and outstanding leadership ability in that position. Due to his outstanding work performance and rich experience, Mr. Zheng Songren was promoted to Assistant Commissioner of Police and will be transferred to be the Commander of the Hong Kong Island District Headquarters."
"Today, we specially interviewed Zheng Songren..."
Then the camera switched,
Zheng Songren was in a white police shirt, righteous and awe-inspiring, sitting on the office chair.
The appearance was excellent.
"I, Zheng Songren... feel the heavy responsibility and glorious mission..."
"In the upcoming work, I will lead the Hong Kong Island District police force to resolutely fulfill our duties. We will invest in the work of cracking down on crime with more firm determination, more rigorous attitude, and more efficient actions. For all kinds of illegal and criminal acts, we will never be lenient, never be soft, and let criminals have nowhere to hide in Hong Kong Island District!"
Powerful!
Resounding!
Hong Kong Island District Police Station, Commander's office.
"Good!"
Zheng Songren looked at himself on the news, extremely satisfied.
In the past, he had never been on TV, and this time being on TV made him feel very fresh, excited, and thrilled.
However, he quickly turned his face down again.
Last night, Situ Situ Jie invited more than half of the police station's police officers to dinner, which made him lose face and also made him realize a problem.
He was sidelined.
Now, although Situ Situ Jie has left, the remaining Deputy Commander (Chief Superintendent) Yu Suqiu is still influencing most of the police officers in the police station.
"I must build my own strength!"
Zheng Songren thought for a whole night last night and decided to start from scratch and pull up a team that belonged to him.
However,
Now the most important thing is not to pull a team, but to take advantage of this TVB report to promote himself well.
He called that TVB reporter and asked if they were still willing to interview?
TVB agreed very quickly.
Not long after,
Zheng Songren took TVB and wandered around Hong Kong Island.
Learning from Viceroy Fat Peng, he made approachable moves.
That evening, TVB reported this news again:
"Today, the new Commander of Hong Kong Island District, Mr. Zheng Songren, went deep into every corner of Hong Kong Island District to listen to citizens' needs for the police force..."
In the lens, Zheng Songren waved goodbye to the citizens and said to the lens: "Every citizen's appeal is the direction indicator for our improvement of work. Listening to the public is consolidating the foundation of the police force, allowing us to crack down on crime more powerfully and maintain social fairness and justice..."
Zheng Songren's home.
Zheng Songren finished watching the news word for word, with joy on his face.
I have to say, he is addicted!
He decided, he wants to continue to be on TV!
At this time, an airplane came from the United States and landed at Kai Tak Airport.
Cao Nan's leather shoes stepped on the land of Hong Kong again.
After a few months of probing, he found that the Hong Kong police force didn't go to arrest him at all; as one of the leaders of a shocking case, his company wasn't even investigated.
The only explanation is that the police force didn't know of this person's existence at all.
But thinking about it, it's reasonable; except for the first kidnapping, he didn't participate in other kidnappings, so it's normal for the police force not to discover him.
Thus,
Cao Nan is back.
This time, he decided to be more cautious and not mess around.
Kidnapping? 【447-
He stopped kidnapping and went into temporary hiding.
Read every single word without missing a single one!
On the other side, Zhang Ziqiang had been broke for three months.
Three months ago, he had lost all his money at the casinos in Macau.
Being broke was more unbearable to him than being killed.
His gambler's nature made him start preparing for another kidnapping. However, the annihilation of the elite bandit group had made him extremely cautious, which was why he hadn't made a move yet.
At this moment, another gang of bandits—the Lu Chengfeng gang—was watching the television news.
("Sky of Mong Kok")
"This Commissioner, on the newspaper every single day~~~~"
"Damn it, once I finish off that Le Wenhua, I'll kill you!"
Brother Feng said viciously.
Brother Feng used to be the leader of a drug trafficking syndicate and had a brother he trusted deeply named Le Wenhua (played by Andy Lau); he didn't even mind if his own woman kissed him, because he felt that brothers were more important than women.
During a drug deal, Brother Feng was betrayed by Le Wenhua and surrounded by the police; he only managed to escape by driving his car into the sea.
The thing he hated most was the police!
Returning this time, he wanted to take revenge on the police force and on Le Wenhua.
And first, he had to buy arms.
He had just returned to Hong Kong with a few lackeys and had no money at all.
So he went to the arms dealer, pretended to buy weapons, then killed everyone selling the arms and took the weapons for himself.
He had the guns, now he just needed bombs.
And tomorrow morning, he had an appointment with a group of foreigners to buy liquid explosives from them. ("Letter to Daddy")
They had agreed to trade in a shopping mall restaurant.
Brother Feng was poor now, so naturally: "I want the goods, but I don't want to pay the money!"
Heh heh heh~~~
A Waise Lee-style evil laugh.
A new day.
Sunday.
Since it was the weekend, Zheng Songren didn't have to work, so he went to a friend's restaurant and invited Fang Yihua on a date.
At noon,
He arrived at a stylish restaurant built of glass.
He was good friends with the owner of the restaurant.
Fang Yihua hadn't arrived yet, so Zheng Songren started chatting with the restaurant owner.
"You're always in the news lately, not bad."
"Just average, haha~~~"
"Congratulations, promoted from Chief Superintendent to Assistant Commissioner of Police, that's quite a big leap."
"It's alright, it's alright..."
"By the way, you're still chasing that woman... Let me tell you, thin women have the worst tempers, that's my experience."
At this moment, Fang Yihua walked over, carrying her bag.
"Speak ill of others, keep your voice down."
Bar owner: "............"
Scared, he quickly ran away.
He didn't know why Zheng Songren liked this cold, popsicle-like, stick-thin policewoman.
Fang Yihua sat down next to Zheng Songren, and the two drank.
Just then, a reporter from the *Oriental Daily News* happened to be there; seeing Zheng Songren, he ran over, interviewed him, and took a few photos.
Zheng Songren finished dealing with it happily.
Fang Yihua: "What's wrong? Are you very happy lately?"
Zheng Songren was happy: "I didn't expect I was so popular."
He thought it was his own capability, never imagining that the Commissioner had tipped off the media.
Just as the two were chatting,
At this moment,
On the other side, on the second floor of the glass house, a bomb deal was taking place.
Brother Feng was with his lackeys, facing a group of foreigners.
Brother Feng produced the cash, the foreigners verified the funds...
And by the fountain on the roadside outside the glass house, the foreigners brought out the bombs, and the lackeys inspected them.
Soon,
Another wave of masked lackeys drove in, aimed at the foreigners, and fired wildly; suddenly, a large group of foreigners fell...
Then followed a gunfight between the two sides, with both scrambling for the bombs.
Upstairs, the foreigners thought Brother Feng was causing trouble and cursed loudly; Brother Feng fired directly—bang, bang, bang~~~—killing the foreigners.
For a moment, gunfire erupted everywhere.
Zheng Songren and Fang Yihua's expressions changed drastically.
The reporter covered his head, hid under the table, and shivered.
All the citizens were terrified and screaming.
Soon, Brother Feng took the money, went down to the first floor, and prepared to leave, only to be spotted by Fang Yihua.
Brother Feng was unlucky; the PTU happened to be nearby, and after hearing the alarm, they rushed over quickly.
Other patrol officers and traffic police also arrived upon hearing the news.
Soon,
A group of bandits was blocked inside the glass restaurant.
"F*ck!"
"How did the police get here so fast!"
"Charge out!"
"Charge your mother, find hostages!!"
Soon,
The group of bandits started looking for hostages.
And Brother Feng looked around.
He locked eyes with Zheng Songren.
"Hey~~~"
"Aren't you that Commissioner who's quite popular in the news?"
"It's f*cking you!"
Brother Feng directly pointed a gun at Zheng Songren's head.
He grinned hideously!
"Commissioner Zheng, trouble you to be my hostage for a bit!"
Zheng Songren had ten thousand "grass mud horses" galloping through his heart.
And not far away, that *Oriental Daily News* reporter was extremely excited, capturing this scene, not even caring about the danger.

PS: One update today, sorry. I've been sick lately with sinusitis accompanied by headaches. Plus, an author passed away; he had said he would update heavily for the New Year, then died from Influenza A. This matter has made me a bit scared. So wait for me to recover these two days. I went to see a doctor this morning (second time, the medication isn't very effective).
