Chapter 544

Edward Swire is dead!

Those ruthless bandits had already quickly returned to the car, stepped on the accelerator, and drove away in a cloud of dust.

Only the wreckage of the Mercedes-Benz remained, lying in the middle of the road.

The whole road was in chaos, many cars stopped one after another, some making calls, some reversing......

After 1 minute,

The Flying Tigers' vehicles rushed over.

Instructor Jian jumped out of the car and looked at the tragic scene before him.

He slowly walked to the side of the car and looked at the bloody scene inside.

"Wow~~ so miserable?"

Soon, ATV and TVB reporters arrived at the scene, but were quickly stopped by the police and not allowed to enter the scene to take photos.

This time, even ATV was not allowed to enter.

A TVB reporter pointed at an ATV reporter and laughed: "Hahaha~~~ ATV, you have today too~~~"

Subsequently, the forensic team arrived, lifted the bodies onto stretchers, and would send them to the morgue on the forensic side.

The forensic team was busy flying today; the 23 bodies from the Ma Tau Wai gunfight 2 hours ago hadn't been processed yet, and now they had to receive 5 more bodies here.

19:00,

This was the news reporting time for TVB and ATV.

Without exception, the Ma Tau Wai gunfight became the focus of the two TV stations' reports.

ATV News,

Wen Huixin sat upright in front of the camera.

"Good evening, dear viewers!"

"This is ATV News, now bringing you major breaking news. At 15:00 this afternoon, an extremely vicious attack occurred in the Ma Tau Wai district of Kowloon."

"According to the police's preliminary report, just around 15:00 this evening, a group of foreign mercenaries whose identities have not yet been identified launched a sudden attack on Mr. Gao Jin, the boss of the Five Star Group and a Legislative Councilor, at an intersection in Ma Tau Wai."

Camera switches scenes......

In the scene, a large number of bullet casings, craters, cars turned into hornet's nests......

And a greasy-haired, middle-parted man, Bai Chi Li, standing messy in the wind, as well as the tattered Mercedes-Benz beside him.

"Let's focus on the situation at the scene. This heavy-firepower attack lasted for nearly 10 minutes, and the scene was so tragic that it was shocking."

"The police found a large number of bullet casings and wreckage of explosive devices at the scene, among which were 7.62mm sniper rifle bullets, fuses for M67 grenades, and even suspected tail fin parts of an RPG-7 grenade launcher."

"In terms of building damage, at least 12 cars were completely destroyed and unrecognizable. 36 cars were damaged in various ways......"

"The outer walls of 3 residential buildings were covered with penetrating bullet holes with a diameter of more than 30 centimeters, and there were more than 20 traces of explosions left at the scene."

"The police revealed that in this battle, there were a total of 23 unidentified international ruthless bandits, all of whom have been killed......"

"And the target of the attack, Mr. Gao Jin, is currently in good health, so citizens can rest assured......"

"And just an hour ago, the Police Headquarters held a press conference, and Senior Assistant Commissioner Huang Bingyao responded to this matter. He stated that according to various signs at the scene, it was preliminarily determined that these attackers were in two groups, one group was members of an international mercenary group, totaling 16 people......"

"One group was international assassins. According to the information provided by Interpol, the name of this international assassin organization is—Deadly Viper Assassination Squad."

"Currently, the police have launched the 'Organized and Serious Crimes Ordinance' and started cross-border investigations, striving to wipe out the forces behind this vicious incident."

"The following is an interview with the citizens of Ma Tau Wai......"

"(Citizen Grandma scene) I was at home at the time, hearing continuous explosions and gunshots, it was too scary!"

"(Citizen Grandpa scene) Never seen such a fierce gunfight...... What? It was an attack on Mr. Gao Jin? Good death, good death!"

"In addition, the police will release the faces of the ruthless bandits, hoping that all citizens will actively provide clues to trace the source...... The Five Star Group has issued a reward, and those who provide clues can receive a reward."

Mercenary......

"Next, is an interview with Mr. Gao Jin......"

In the camera, Gao Jin's figure appeared.

Wearing a hospital gown, lying on a hospital bed, waving at the camera: "Hello everyone, citizens...... I am currently in no serious condition."

Gao "Green Tea" Jin, online!!

Reporter interview: "Mr. Gao Jin, I don't know if you have any relevant guesses as to who sent the international mercenaries to assassinate you?"

Gao Jin: "Not clear, it's nothing more than damaging other people's interest cakes, that's why I was targeted and attacked...... However, I am dedicated to public welfare, for the country, for the citizens, and I have a clear conscience......"

With the news report,

Citizens in thousands of households were all boiling over.

"What a pity, such a good person as Mr. Gao Jin, and there are still people who want him to die!"

"Who exactly is it? To actually do such a thing!"

"I can't believe if Mr. Gao Jin really died in the attack, whether the Central Plaza project and the low-cost housing project could continue......"

"Who exactly is the murderer?"

Countless citizens were angry and speculated about who the murderer was.

Boss Li, who has the most grievances with Gao Jin?

And the many real estate bosses who do real estate?

And the Swire Group?

All have suspicions.

Li family villa.

Boss Li was eating dinner, along with Li Da, Li Er......

Steamed wild yellow croaker maw with three-knife fish, hundred-year-old wild ginseng stewed Australian sea turtle, Italian balsamic vinegar pork neck, Alpine three treasures with white sturgeon caviar......

On the TV,

ATV News was playing.

At the beginning, the news reported "a group of foreign mercenaries launched a sudden attack on Gao Jin" "various high-power weapons......"

The three Li bosses were all pleasantly surprised.

Hahaha~~~

Gao Jin, let you be arrogant, now you've met your retribution!

As a result, seeing the back, Gao Jin seemed to be completely fine, and suddenly almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

My mother!

What the hell!

Still international mercenaries? Are you guys trash?

This couldn't kill Gao Jin?

So weak, sitting at the same table as children!

Other charity organizations and real estate company bosses who had grievances with Gao Jin also experienced the same psychological journey.

First, they gloated, and then they cursed these mercenaries and assassins as trash.

23 people, and they couldn't kill Gao Jin!

Are you pigs?

Even if a pig went up to gore him, it could gore Gao Jin to death!

Still have the nerve to call themselves international mercenaries, international assassins?

Embarrassing!

Peninsula Hotel,

Gao Jin was eating with Fei Peng.

Then he received phone calls continuously.

"Thank you Brother Zheng for your concern, I'm fine......"

"Boss Lin, thank you for your concern, I'm really fine......"

Phone calls came one after another, all from people who heard the news and came to show concern, from the business world, from the police force......

Finally, Gao Jin couldn't take it anymore and handed the phone directly to Fang Ting, letting her answer it.

"Come...... Your Excellency, cheers to our second successful cooperation!"

"Cheers!"

Ding~~~

Happy cooperation.

This time, why cooperate with Gao Jin?

First of all, this Edward had to die. Gao Jin would definitely kill Edward, and if he didn't tell Gao Jin and let the police force protect Edward without authorization, then he would be Gao Jin's enemy.

He was afraid that Gao Jin would kill crazily and want to kill him.

Therefore, if he cooperated with Gao Jin, the money would be taken steadily.

Gao Jin: "30 million US dollars, logically I should take half, but the subsequent 15 million was added by Your Excellency based on your ability, so I won't take it. I only want my portion of 7.5 million US dollars!"

Fei Peng's eyes lit up.

Bright!

Heroic!

He was even happier.

He found that Gao Jin had a good point: he kept his word, could distinguish right from wrong, and was generous, making cooperation stable.

Although they were enemies, they could still become good partners for cooperation.

Fei Peng: "Thanks...... come, drink!" Gao Jin: "Cheers!"

At this time,

AIA Insurance.

Bai Chi Li was full of anger, leading TVB reporters and photographers, walking aggressively into the insurance company lobby.

Rushing all the way, he found the department director's office.

"You must give me an explanation today! Why won't you pay me the insurance premium? My car was caught in this Ma Tau Wai gunfight and is almost scrapped, but you guys are good, saying you won't pay, you won't pay!"

Bai Chi Li's eyes widened, shouting loudly, the veins on his neck bulging.

Today, after the gunfight, he survived, but thinking of his beloved car being full of holes, he still called the insurance company.

!

As a result, the insurance agent said they wouldn't pay.

It really pissed Bai Chi Li off.

Do you really think I'm an ordinary person?

Okay, I won't pretend anymore, I'm showing my cards, I'm a TVB executive, a person with connections!

So he brought TVB reporters and photographers to the headquarters building.

The director had a deep impression of Bai Chi Li. Because his car always had problems, he became a special customer, and even the director knew about him.

This time, he was even on TV.

"Sir, I know you're in a hurry, but don't be in a hurry first......"

"Our company's claims are strictly executed according to the insurance contract......"

"Then why was it okay last time? Why not this time?"

"That's because after last time, we made contract modifications for you, a special customer...... Mr. Li, you should be clear about your own situation. The car you drive often has various problems, and the frequency of your insurance claims is four or five times higher than other customers......"

Bai Chi Li: "............"

Damn it, I don't know why I'm so unlucky either!

England,

The time here is 10 am.

Swire Family Manor,

The 10 am sunlight gently sprinkled on the manor, the ancient buildings were plated with a layer of gold, quiet and peaceful.

Inside the manor, Adrian Swire was leisurely sitting on a rattan chair in the garden, reading the newspaper of the day, enjoying a rare moment of tranquility.

He is the fifth-generation member of the Swire family of the Swire Group, the current helmsman of the Swire Group.

And the previous helmsman was his brother, Anthony Swire.

Adrian had studied at Wellesley College, Eton College, and Oxford University College.

In 1986, he began serving as the Chairman of the Board of the Swire Group (Global).

"Ring ring ring~~~~~"

A burst of urgent phone ringing suddenly sounded, breaking this tranquility.

The butler took the phone, and after connecting, his expression changed.

"Master, something happened."

The butler walked over, holding the phone with both hands, to Adrian's front.

"Old Mr. Swire!"

"Woo woo woo~~~"

Fei Peng displayed the excellent qualities of a politician, crying as soon as he wanted to,

"Just now...... just now......"

Adrian Swire's heart sank suddenly.

"What happened? Speak quickly!"

"Old sir, Mr. Edward...... he...... just 30 minutes ago, unfortunately passed away."

Fei Peng finally struggled to spit out this cruel fact.

"What?!"

This news was like a thunderbolt, blowing Adrian's vision black.

Almost falling down!

Edward was his own grandson, with outstanding ability, and he had always wanted to cultivate him as his successor for the next generation......

As a result......

"No! This is impossible!"

Adrian clenched his fists tightly and slammed them heavily on the table beside him, the ornaments on the table jumped instantly.

"Speak, what happened?!"

Fei Peng: "I don't know the specifics either......"

Fei Peng explained his guess about the mercenaries attacking Gao Jin of the Five Star Group, then Gao Jin escaping, and finally when Edward was escaping from Hong Kong, he was intercepted by ruthless bandits on the road and shot to death......

"Because I don't know exactly what happened, the above are all my guesses!"

"Five Star Group? Gao Jin?"

Adrian was suddenly furious.

He knew about the mercenaries, and he knew even more about the Five Star Group and Gao Jin. Last time Merlin died, Gao Jin was one of the possible murderers.

"My dear Edward......"

Adrian was heartbroken, followed by infinite anger!

If Merlin died, he died, he was just a capable grand-nephew anyway.

But Edward was his own grandson!

He quickly made phone calls, and after a few orders, the Swire Group began to mobilize.

Subsequently, he called the Intelligence Service.

At this time,

On the side of MI5,

Jonathan, the person in charge of MI5 who regarded the Five Star Group as something in his pocket, was also paying attention to Edward's attack and death.

He was calling Riley, the person in charge of the Political Department, to inquire about the situation.

"In other words...... the security force around this Gao Jin is very strong?"

"Yes."

"It seems that our parasite plan will have a lot of trouble......"

"Director, we don't need to worry about this at all. Attacking is difficult, but we can poison him."

"That's a good idea...... By the way, what is the current level of those personnel from the Political Department who have infiltrated the Five Star Group?"

"Currently, they have reached the level of small supervisors."

"Let them speed up, show more ability...... Also, how many undercover agents have infiltrated?"

"83 people......"

"How is 83 people enough? Increase the intensity for me, get 200 people in!"

"No problem, Director!"

Director Jonathan had just hung up the phone, and the next moment ring ring ring~~~ the phone rang again.

Adrian of the Swire Group.

"Hi, Mr. Adrian!"

"Jonathan......"

The two had a deep relationship before, belonging to the kind where Adrian had helped Jonathan.

"I just received news that my grandson Edward is dead?"

"Yes, I just received the news too."

"Was it that Gao Jin of the Five Star Group who killed him?"

"Mr. Adrian, please calm down, there is currently no evidence to prove that Gao Jin killed him."

Jonathan felt that the Five Star Group was his, and Gao Jin couldn't die yet, he had to try his best to protect Gao Jin.

"I don't need evidence!"

"Mr. Adrian, you need to calm down...... First of all, you were the ones who made the first move."

"But, Edward is the direct heir of the Swire Group!"

"I know, but that Gao Jin went to the National Day banquet of the East on October 1st, do you understand what I mean?"

"I don't care! My grandson is dead!"

On the other side of the phone, Adrian roared angrily.
