Hong Kong News: Police Talker

Chapter 710: On the Selection of Deputy Director of Operations

There was no way. Li Wenbin had never experienced such pressure from public opinion before. It was even more tiring than fighting the bandits with real guns and swords.

That kind of pressure was almost suffocating. After he saw the newspaper in the morning, he became furious and went out with his men to find the person who slandered him behind the scenes.

He had no clues and could only arrest those who sold newspapers. However, these people had received money in advance and understood that if they told the truth, the money would be gone. This kind of ill-gotten gains would be confiscated.

In addition, although Li Yonglian and his team found 500 people, they did not let them go to the factory. Instead, they sent people to deliver newspapers to relevant places by car and then let them distribute them. These newspaper sellers did not know where the factory was, so they could not say anything even if they wanted to.

So after a busy day, he was like a headless fly, running around everywhere, trying to find the person who slandered him, but until now, he has not gained anything.

He did not return until he heard that the West Kowloon Police Station had found the newspaper printing factory and arrested many people.

Li Shutang looked at Li Wenbin and said slowly: "Remember everything that happened today. On your way to the top of the mountain, you will encounter countless difficulties. Compared with the difficulties you will encounter in the future, the difficulties you encountered this time will be nothing in the future."

"And your performance today really disappointed me. You were filled with anger. Tell me, what did you do today?"

Hearing this, Li Wenbin lowered his head in shame.

Li Shutang said in a deep voice: "When encountering a major event, the first thing to do is to calm down and think about solutions, rather than running around like a headless fly. Do you think you can find the person behind the scenes if you go out like this?"

"And you and I both know that the people behind this are Li Yonglian and his gang, so I used my power as director to directly send people to arrest them all and give them a good lesson. Even if I can't find evidence, I will make them pay the price."

Li Wenbin said in surprise: "Dad, if this is the case, you yourself..."

Li Shutang raised his hand to stop him from speaking, and said, "I will retire at the end of the year. Before I retire, I must let those people understand the price of angering a police chief."

"After what happened to you this time, it's unlikely that you'll be promoted to deputy director of operations. You can only wait a few more years."

Hearing this, Li Wenbin lowered his head in disappointment, and after a long breath, he said, "Then will Huang Bingyao take over the position of deputy director of operations?"

Li Shutang nodded and said, "There are three people competing for the position of deputy director of operations. Cai Yuanqi is now seriously injured and lying in the hospital. He is old and may not recover in a few months."

"You have been involved in something like this again. Although you can say that the other party is slandering you in the end, your reputation as the strongest second-generation police officer has spread throughout Hong Kong Island. You are not suitable for promotion now."

"The only one left is Fatty Huang. In addition, he just led the West Kowloon Police Station to find the place where the newspapers were printed and arrested some people. This is a very great achievement. According to his merits, he should be appointed as the Deputy Director of Operations."

After a pause, Li Shutang suddenly said, "Although I cannot let you be the deputy director of operations, I can still give you the position of assistant director."

"You are only in charge of the Organized Crime and Triads now, which is not enough. After all, the Assistant Director can be involved in various major cases, and you can only be responsible for some cases related to the triads."

"There are a large number of triad members in Hong Kong Island. Now they have penetrated into every household. They are impossible to wipe out. If we knock down one society, another will stand up."

"You used your position as the commander of the Organized Crime and Triads to compete for the position of deputy director of operations. You were already at a disadvantage. I just took this opportunity to push you to the position of assistant director."

After listening to everything, Li Wenbin nodded silently and said, "Okay, I understand." After a pause, he said, "Thank you, Dad!"

Li Shutang smiled with relief. Everything he had done was enough just to be called Dad.

Watson lay at home, but he influenced the fate of many people.

While many forces were fighting each other, A Zu and his brothers set foot on the land of Hong Kong Island again.

"Wow!" Several people jumped onto the shore excitedly and cheered to each other.

Although they had not been away from Hong Kong Island for a long time, they felt as if a long time had passed.

Wei Jixiang brought people to personally greet A Zu and others.

"A-Zu!" Wei Jixiang called out, then walked over with a smile and open arms.

A-Zu immediately opened his arms and the two hugged each other.

"Brother Jixiang, I didn't expect you to come pick me up in person."

Wei Jixiang smiled and said, "Watson is injured, otherwise he would want to come pick you up in person. By the way, A-Zu, you should go home and see your parents first. After that, I will send someone to pick you up when it gets darker, and then we can start the operation."

The images of his parents immediately appeared in A-Zu’s mind, and a deep feeling of longing suddenly emerged.

Huobao, Liu Tian and others also heard this, and they could no longer suppress their longing for their parents.

After A Zu slowly exhaled, he said, "Okay, Brother Jixiang, let's go home to visit our parents first, and we will gather on time at eight o'clock in the evening."

"Okay, I'll notify Wang Jianjun and Tian Yangsheng and the others, and I'll send someone to pick you up at eight o'clock." Wei Jixiang said in a deep voice, and as he spoke, he suddenly looked at the ten black-clad gunmen who got off the boat.

A Zu followed his gaze and immediately whispered, "These ten gunmen are all Koreans. They can be used as cannon fodder when the time comes."

Wei Jixiang nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll take them to rest first, so as not to affect your reunion with your parents."

A Zu immediately walked over and spoke something in Korean to the ten gunmen, asking them to follow Wei Jixiang and leave, and to start the action at night.

The two sides separated at the dock. A Zu and others went home to see their parents, while Wei Jixiang left with ten Korean gunmen.

At this time, Wang Jianjun, Tian Yangsheng and others were also preparing for the evening's action.

Especially Wang Jianjun, he had an automatic rifle, two pistols, a Mitsubishi bayonet, etc., all ready, and he also changed into combat uniform. He had never changed before, always wearing casual clothes, and sometimes even wearing a cloak, which looked very handsome, but in fact, when the real fight started, it would hinder his performance.

In order tonight's operation, Wang Jianjun simply threw away all the inconvenient things.
