Chapter 732
"I want to cooperate!"
Jones said loudly.
"Haha~~~ Good, I like people like you." Da Tou laughed loudly.
Jones: "How do I know you will keep your promise and give me money?"
Da Tou: "Don't worry about this... Two Governors, leaders of various government departments... who doesn't cooperate with us? Who doesn't know that we have a good reputation?"
Jones's heart shook.
Governor Chris Patten actually betrayed Great Britain.
At this moment, the last bit of relief in Jones's heart dissipated.
Jones asked the last question: "How do I get this money? I definitely won't be convenient with cash."
Da Tou waved his hand: "This is simple... Our general cooperation method internationally is a Swiss anonymous bank account. We don't handle the money in Hong Kong, but go directly from the United States to your account."
Jones felt it was not bad after hearing it.
Jones still had one last worry: "Now I don't have a bank account number. What if I tell you the intelligence and you don't give me the money?"
Da Tou thought for a while: "There is no way to prove my credit. However, killing you is of no benefit to us, because we still have opportunities to cooperate in the future. In addition, 1 million US dollars is not a big sum for us."
Jones was still hesitating.
Da Tou shook his head: "I understand your worry, but... don't be shameless!"
Directly took out a gun,
*Click click*~~~ loaded.
Aimed at Jones.
Jones was startled and shouted hurriedly: "Cooperate! Cooperate!"
At this moment, there was no way out, and there was 1 million US dollars in front of him tempting him.
Da Tou put away the gun and smiled: "That's right... Tell me, what did you come here for?"
"Don't try to hide it, because we have already caught the second person. When the time comes, if your statements don't match, both of you will die."
Jones shook his head hurriedly: "Don't dare!"
The last bit of luck was gone.
Soon,
He poured out the operation this time like beans.
Another sea area,
Dark night, on the boat.
Mitchell lay on the deck, bound, unable to move.
Laughing's voice was like a devil's whisper:
"You think your sacrifice is great? In fact, in the eyes of those big shots, it's like a dead dog, without the slightest pity. And Britain will not become better because of your sacrifice."
"Isn't your capitalist society all about money? You do it for money, what's wrong with that?"
"By the way, we also caught two other people. If you don't explain, some people will explain. So your persistence is meaningless."
"You can choose to sacrifice, or you can choose to take that 1 million US dollars. In the future, you can provide intelligence and earn more US dollars."
"How to choose, consider it yourself."
"Also, are you married? You are 35, you should be married, you should have a wife and children, right."
"After you die, will a man move into your house, spend your pension, sleep with your wife, and beat your children."
"If your child is a girl, that's even worse. She will face a demonic stepfather."
"Think about this picture..."
"It's just too brutal!"
Mitchell originally wanted to hold on, but after hearing this, he completely collapsed.
Because he really had a daughter.
He loved her like his life.
And his wife happened to be the kind of relatively open woman.
What this 'devil' said might really happen!
"I'll talk!"
"I'll talk!"
Mitchell also began to pour beans.
An hour later,
Jones and Mitchell quietly returned to the hotel without knowing about each other.
No words all night.
Returned to the hotel to meet up.
All personnel arrived.
Jones and Mitchell harbored their own thoughts, quietly observing their other teammates without a trace, wanting to see who was caught last night and took the money, and how much money they took.
But looking around... didn't find anyone with suspicious points.
Leader Harris continued to arrange tasks, completely unaware that his team had two more undercover agents.
Central Plaza, top floor, Director Guan Zu's office.
Da Tou and Laughing reported to Director Guan Zu.
Director Guan Zu pondered: "It was actually the Prime Minister who sent people over. Is it that he no longer trusts Patten?"
Da Tou was serious: "Obviously, this Prime Minister has started to become a bit impatient."
"I suspect that next, the other party will send someone to assassinate Brother Zu!"
Laughing nodded: "I think so too. This Major must have coveted the Five Star Group because of the parasitism plan. And the Five Star Group is too powerful, which will greatly affect Britain's interests, so at this time, the best way for them to solve the Five Star Group is to kill you, Brother Zu."
Director Guan Zu looked at Victoria Harbour through the floor-to-ceiling windows: "What you said makes sense. Notify the people planted at Cathay Pacific, and pay more attention to people coming from Britain in the future."
Da Tou: "Yes!"
Director Guan Zu: "Also, Da Tou, you shouldn't have gone personally last night. You are a senior leader, don't easily appear on the front line."
Da Tou lowered his head: "Yes!"
Soon,
May 30th, the Dragon Boat Festival is coming.
Victoria Harbour, Aberdeen, Stanley, and other sea areas began to hold dragon boat races one after another.
Some big, some small.
Among them, the international race in Aberdeen was the largest, with competitions from countries around the world, naturally attracting a large number of citizens to watch.
June 2nd, Dragon Boat Festival, a day off, the international dragon boat race officially ended on this day.
June 3rd, Saturday, Sha Tin District began to become lively.
The Five Star Group Long Zhoudui vs. Hong Kong-British Government Long Zhoudui mixed competition officially began.
A total of 58 teams, including the dragon boat team where Director Guan Zu was, and the dragon boat team where Patten was.
The competition is divided into 2 days:
First day, June 3rd, Saturday: 58 teams are divided into 16 groups, each group has 3-4 teams. Each group conducts a 500-meter straight-line speed race, the first place in each group advances to the semi-finals, deciding the top 16.
Second day finals: June 4th, Sunday: In the morning, 16 dragon boat teams enter the semi-finals, each group has 4 teams, deciding the top 4. In the afternoon, the top 4 decide the champion, runner-up, and third place.
On the morning of June 3rd, Sha Tin District was bustling with noise and excitement.
The sun shone on the Shing Mun River in Sha Tin, sparkling, colorful flags fluttered on both banks, crowds of people were bustling, and the air was filled with excitement and expectation.
The highly anticipated Five Star Group Long Zhoudui and Hong Kong-British Government Long Zhoudui mixed competition officially kicked off.
At 9 o'clock sharp, the opening ceremony was held grandly, with wonderful dragon and lion dance performances and energetic cheerleader dances, instantly igniting the enthusiasm of the audience.
At 9:30, 58 teams completed registration at the registration office one after another, drew lots, and began to wait.
10 o'clock,
The first batch of 4 groups of dragon boat teams were ready.
2 government teams, two Five Star Group teams.
"*Bang~~~*"
With a crisp gunshot, the preliminary round officially started.
For a time, dragon boats on the river flew like arrows, drummers beat the drums with all their might, crew members shouted in unison, and the paddles went into the water in a mess, splashing layers of water.
Soon,
The ICAC dragon boat team led by Lu Lu Zhilian turned, overturned the Five Star Property New Territories dragon boat team, dumplings...
The shore suddenly burst into laughter.
On the river,
Nine-Patterned Dragon's eyes looking at Lu Lu Zhilian were like this:
Really wanted to shout: "Lu Lu Zhilian, I'll die with you!"
Finally, the Five Star Group West Kowloon boat team won against the Electrical and Mechanical Services Department and got the qualification for the semi-finals.
Then,
The second group of competitions appeared. Director Guan Zu led the President Long Zhoudui!
As soon as Director Guan Zu appeared, cheers from both banks!
"Oh oh oh oh~~~~"
"Come on!!!"
The cheers like mountains and seas, the whole Sha Tin seemed to tremble for it.
This scene made Harris and others' faces change slightly.
Soon,
Director Guan Zu was the first to board the boat, standing at the bow, his strong muscles shining with oily luster in the sun, his shoulder and back muscles bulging like rocks, every line revealing the beauty of power.
A piece of drooling sound on the shore!
"So stylish!"
"So man!"
4 dragon boats boarded the boat.
Still 2 government teams, 2 Five Star Group teams.
"*Bang~~~*"
With a crisp gunshot, the drums sounded *dong long*.
22 men on the four dragon boats waved their paddles at the same time, and the moment the wooden paddles split the water, the dragon boat moved forward fiercely.
This dragon boat team of Director Guan Zu has many masters, each one is outrageous.
After mastering the direction and rhythm, the speed flew up all of a sudden.
"*Dong~~ dong~~ dong~~~*"
The drum rhythm roared.
"*Ha~~~*"
Director Guan Zu and others shouted in unison, the whole team raised their paddles at the same time, their arms swung round, their deltoids bulged high, and the muscle jungle composed of forty arms in the sun fell down in unison,
With a "*splash*", the river water was split into a big mouth.
The beauty of power and masculinity, under the sun, above the sparkling water, was embodied at this moment.
The dragon boat was like an arrow from a string, quickly surpassing other dragon boat teams.
Every time they paddled, they carried the momentum of overturning mountains and seas, and the sound of the paddles breaking the water was neat and uniform, as shocking as war drums.
The moment the bow finally broke through the finish line, the whole world seemed to stand still.
"Damn!"
"Damn!"
"Damn!"
Countless citizens on both banks were shocked and stunned.
What about the dragon boat teams behind?
They haven't even finished half of the race.
Next, the third group.
Governor Chris Patten appeared, and he greeted both banks.
Both banks gave face and cheered. It has to be said that a Governor who doesn't cause trouble is a good Governor, and this dragon boat rowing won Chris Patten a lot of affinity points.
Four dragon boat teams, one Five Star Group, three government teams.
"*Bang~~~~*"
With the gunshot, the four dragon boats began to slide.
One government team rowed very fast, but turned halfway, and then overturned.
Another team wanted to turn and hit another Five Star Group dragon boat team, but the Five Star Group dragon boat team also turned, went around all the way, and overturned the dragon boat of Chris Patten + various directors and high officials.
Citizens on both banks: "............"
Can only say... mighty!
June 4th,
Sunday,
19:00, ATV news reported:
"Dear citizen friends..."
"In the fierce dragon boat race that ended today for two days, the Shing Mun River in Sha Tin District witnessed a contest of strength and beauty."
Footage · Muscle Super-Man · avi
Women all over Hong Kong drooled one after another.
"After many rounds of tense competition, the awards were settled. The Five Star Group President Long Zhoudui successfully won the championship of this event, the government police dragon boat team performed equally well, winning the runner-up, and the Five Star Group West Kowloon Property Team harvested the third place..."
"It is worth mentioning that our Governor's boat was overturned in the first round~~~"
Governor Chris Patten, numerous directors, high officials, dumplings falling into the water · avi
Citizens all over Hong Kong burst into laughter one after another.
"During the competition, each team fully demonstrated the masculinity and the beauty of men's strength. The team members' muscles were tense, and they paddled with all their might. Every movement was full of power, interpreting the charm of dragon boat sports with strength."
"It is especially worth mentioning that the Five Star Group President Long Zhoudui ran an astonishing result of 1 minute and 35 seconds in the 500-meter speed project. This result far exceeded the 500-meter speed time of the International Dragon Boat Championship champion—1 minute and 50 seconds."
Citizens all over Hong Kong: "???"
Damn! No way!
Shocked!
"I believe this wonderful dragon boat race will leave everyone with deep and beautiful memories..."
"See you at the dragon boat race next Dragon Boat Festival!"
At this time,
A plane took off from Kai Tak Airport and headed to Great Britain.
The moment the plane broke through the clouds, the sunlight outside the porthole made Jones squint.
He looked at Hong Kong, which had gradually shrunk into the outline of an island, and his fingernails were deeply pinched into the leather seat. The anxiety of betraying the British Empire made him restless.
However, the feeling of pinching his fingers brought him back to reality.
Then he thought of the cold 1 million US dollars lying in the Swiss bank account, and his heart began to heat up again.
How did he get this Swiss bank account?
It was that he spent 4 hours, took a boat to Macau under the arrangement of the Five Star Group, put on makeup, opened an anonymous account, and 1 million US dollars was transferred to his account on the spot...
This service attitude simply made him flattered.
It was only then that he truly experienced: The Five Star Group really keeps its promises.
Actually, the Five Star Group got the intelligence and could have not given the money at all, but they still gave it, and the service was thoughtful!
No wonder Governor Chris Patten would choose to cooperate.
No wonder those high-level executives in Hong Kong would betray Great Britain.
At this moment, Jones was both ecstatic about the windfall and anxious about betraying Great Britain.
But fortunately,
He could also be considered an elite, and could hide his mood very well.
At this time,
Mitchell in the seat on the other side had a much more stable mentality.
Who doesn't want to seize the opportunity to change their destiny?
1 million US dollars, how many years to earn?
"Sir, do you need champagne?"
At this time, the flight attendant's inquiry interrupted his thoughts.
Mitchell nodded, and the flight attendant poured a glass of golden liquid and handed it to him.
Taking a sip, the moment the bubbles exploded on the tip of his tongue, Mitchell suddenly looked forward to the next transaction.
The numbers in the bank card made them taste the taste of freedom for the first time at 30,000 feet.
One day later,
10 Downing Street,
Prime Minister's Office,
The crystal chandelier cast cold white light on the walnut long table, and a heavy silence floated in the steaming coffee mist.
Harris, who returned to Great Britain, officially reported to Prime Minister Major after resting.
From Patten's consistent performance...
To the development speed of Director Guan Zu's Five Star Group...
Prime Minister Major tapped the table rhythmically with his fingertips, his brows already twisted into a "chuan" shape.
"Your views are very consistent. This Patten has betrayed us, right?"
"Yes, Prime Minister! However, we don't have any evidence."
"Evidence?"
Major shook his head.
He didn't really need evidence.
And, although Patten had expressed loyalty many times on the phone, in terms of results, he had indeed caused Great Britain to lose a lot of interests many times.
"What should we do?"
Major fell into deep thought.
This Five Star Group was already too powerful.
Patten and Chris Patten were corrupted one after another, and the government side must be riddled with holes.
Must be dealt with as soon as possible!
The plans that emerged during this period kept flashing through his mind.
Kill Director Guan Zu?
Or... kill Patten, and frame it?
