The film and television world begins with the battle for the throne in Kowloon

Chapter 392 A Room Full of Cash
Gao Jianbin felt relieved when he heard this. He regained his senses and became his usual superior, calm and wise self. He said in an official tone, "Well, that's good."

"Flying Tiger, let West Kowloon submit a report on tonight's actions tomorrow. I want to find out the cause and effect of the matter. How did the sudden earth-shaking change happen? What's the inside story? You need to find out, okay?"

Liang Feihu curled his lips in disdain, but said in a very respectful tone: "Okay, Director, don't worry."

"It's getting late now. Your health is important. Go to bed early!"

"Yeah," Gao Jianbin responded lightly and hung up the phone.

The crisis on Han Chen's side was resolved, and Gao Jianbin began to focus his attention on Shen Cheng. Overnight, the situation suddenly changed, and Gao Jianbin was thinking about various possibilities.

Although Gao Jianbin would naturally be able to learn the details as soon as tomorrow's report came in, that was provided by others. As a big boss of a faction in the police system, Gao Jianbin required himself to infer the truth of the matter with as little information as possible, rather than relying on a large amount of reports.

The struggle at the top level is a test of brains. Deep insight and clear judgment are the fundamental guarantee for all decision-making.

I must be better than Shen Cheng
Just like that, Gao Jianbin became drowsy and fell asleep without knowing when, while constantly thinking.

He completely forgot about his nephew Gao Xiaojun whom he had sent to Han Chen's villa to get some fresh air.
Han Chen would never know that he had brushed shoulders with death in advance!

At the scene in Dalangwan Village, after Li Yan sent Wu Changqing away, he saw that Shen Cheng looked unhappy, and wondered what he was thinking?
He did not comfort Shen Cheng anymore, but stepped forward to help up Lin Zhihui and the child who were knocked down by Ruan Xingwu's body. At this time, Ruan Xingwu's blood splattered all over Lin Zhihui's face.

Lin Zhihui was also frightened and pale. With the comfort of Li Yan, it took him a while to react. He looked at Ruan Xingwu who was dead under him, with his eyes wide open and blood on his head.

Unable to hold back any longer, she screamed loudly, then burst into tears as if to vent her anger, and held the child tightly.

Li Yan was helpless. He stretched out his hand and knocked on the back of Lin Zhihui's head. The world suddenly became quiet and Lin Zhihui fainted.

"Ms. Lin is too frightened and needs to rest. Send her to the hospital immediately."

After Li Yan gave the order, he held the child. Children are very easy to coax, and maybe because he was too frightened at night, the child had fallen asleep when he was in Li Yan's arms.

Shen Cheng also came up to check it out. Looking at the mess in the yard and the corpses scattered all over the ground, there was not a single survivor left, and he sighed.

Watching his police officers cleaning up the scene, collecting evidence, removing the bodies, and dealing with the whole matter, everyone was busy and happy, but Shen Cheng fell silent, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

At least the kidnappers were eliminated and the hostages were rescued safely. The case has developed to this point and it can be said that it has been very perfect. This time in the contest with Gao Jianbin, I can say that I have won a great victory.

However, the dead bodies at the scene and the phone call before the battle left Shen Cheng with some trauma, and he always felt that he had not accomplished his mission completely.

This case seems to be perfect so far, but there are only Vietnamese people at the scene. These kidnappers dare to stir up trouble in Hong Kong Island and commit such a big crime. Don’t they have support behind them? Whether it is the failure of several previous operations or the phone call before this operation.

All of this shows that someone at the top of the police force was involved. The way the gangsters died at the scene also illustrates this point, especially since they had instructed in advance to keep them alive for interrogation, but they still did what they wanted and brazenly issued the order to silence them.

Otherwise, grassroots police officers would not do this, and without the support of their superiors, they would not dare to disobey their orders.

But Shen Cheng also knew that the person behind this must be extremely powerful and had huge implications, so he might not be so easy to deal with.

Shen Cheng had never doubted Li Yan, who performed very well in this case. After all, if it weren't for him, the case would not have developed to this point and would have been almost solved.

But in the finale, Li Yan chose to turn a blind eye. There is no doubt about that. The members of the task force were all from his serious crime squad, who were handpicked by him. The team was led by his confidant and cheap brother-in-law Huo Qiqiang.

With Li Yan's scheming and intelligence, Shen Cheng believes that Li Yan can completely control the team members of this operation and control tonight's actions.

But he chose to turn a blind eye, or to take a neutral stance. On the one hand, he helped himself solve the case; on the other hand, he ignored the other party and carried out the finishing work.

Just now, Wu Changqing could have clearly shown mercy, but he used his power for personal gain and killed the last kidnapper. Shen Cheng didn't believe that Li Yan didn't see the problem?
But Li Yan didn't care about it. He even covered up for Wu Changqing and stopped himself from pursuing the matter further.

There was also the phone call that was made before the battle began. Shen Cheng believed that the person who reported the news was among the team members on the scene. Even if the phone was dealt with, he could find that person by just asking who left alone just now. However, Li Yan did not investigate.

This made Shen Cheng have to doubt that Li Yan didn't ask, which meant that he knew everything, so there was no need to do anything unnecessary.
This is Shen Cheng's evaluation of Li Yan, this sly guy. Perhaps this is the biggest compromise Li Yan can make.

He helped me solve the case, which actually offended Gao Jianbin and Liang Feihu. Now Gao Jianbin is seeking help, perhaps he has his own reasons. I can't make things too difficult for him.

Li Yan, who seemed in a good mood, as if the case had been completely solved, was directing the work on the scene and was very busy.

After thinking about it for a while, Shen Cheng smiled bitterly and shook his head. Li Yan must know something.

It seems that I will have to continue to exploit this kid in the future.

At this time, a police officer ran over with an excited look on his face and said excitedly: "Deputy Director, Team Leader, when we searched the scene just now, we found a compartment in the cellar. There is a lot of money in it!"

"It was all cash, including US dollars and British pounds, but the largest amount was Hong Kong dollars. It filled up the entire room. It was a spectacular scene!"

Shen Cheng and Li Yan came to the cellar. Huo Qiqiang was standing there personally, with several police officers waiting. When he saw the two officers coming, he hurried forward to lead the way and said excitedly: "Deputy Director, Team Leader, you see, there is nothing in this cellar except a cabinet that is as tall as a person. I think it's a bit strange, so I asked the team members to move the cabinet away."

"I didn't expect there was a small iron door hidden in the back wall. It was locked. I asked the team members to open it and saw that there was a room inside, which was full of banknotes."

Huo Qiqiang looked excited, as if he had accomplished something great, and he boasted excitedly about how he discovered this place.

Shen Cheng and Li Yan walked in through an iron door in the corner. The light in the cellar was not very good, with only a dim light. The police officers brought a searchlight, which illuminated the cellar as bright as day, and every detail was visible.

A narrow passage extended into it, and the other side was filled with cash from the ground to the roof. It looked shocking. Shen Cheng casually stepped on it and took a closer look. They were all genuine Hong Kong dollars, and the numbers were not consecutive.

Huo Qiqiang suppressed his excitement and said tremblingly: "I just made a rough estimate. If the room inside is as big as the one outside, there are about 500 to 600 million in cash here."

"Fuck"

Li Yan and Shen Cheng both took a deep breath. Like Huo Qiqiang, they had never seen such a huge amount of money appear in front of them in the form of cash in their lives.

It turns out that there is so much cash, five or six hundred million?
Of course Li Yan knew the situation and knew the existence of this place through Dilu's description. However, the Vietnamese were guarding it day and night, and the place where the money was hidden was inside the cellar with only one exit. Ruan Xingwu lived next door, so there was no chance at all.

Unless he was kidnapped by the Vietnamese, but if that were the case, the impact would be even greater.

Although Li Yan can also be considered a pseudo third-generation police officer, the key point is that his position in the police force is too eye-catching. A senior superintendent, deputy director of a region, and the leader of the serious crime squad were kidnapped by gangsters?

Let’s not talk about whether the Vietnamese would do such a thing. Even if they dare to do it, the people of Hong Kong Island will not be able to accept it.

If that happens, it will not only shock Hong Kong Island, but will probably shock the world.

What the hell is your police department doing?

Such a high-ranking police officer has gotten into trouble, and he is the head of the regional serious crime squad. We still expect you to protect us? Is this a joke?
If Li Yan made such a fool of himself, he would be a laughing stock and a laughing stock to the whole world. He would bring shame to the Hong Kong police and he would have no hope of getting a job there.
It's really not worth it for just 500 million yuan. Li Yan doesn't lack that little money now, so he didn't care.

I had hoped that no one would find me, and I would come back later. But I was found by Huo Qiqiang, and I thought to myself that it was bad luck. I lost 500 million or 600 million.

At the same time, she had to suppress her nausea and praise Qiangzi so that he wouldn't notice.

"Qiangzi, well done. You have made a great contribution. If it weren't for you, this huge sum of money would have been missed right under our noses."

"This must be the dirty money accumulated by these kidnappers over the past few years. It's really hateful!" Li Yan praised Huo Qiqiang's contribution with admiration, and Shen Cheng nodded with satisfaction.

Huo Qiqiang immediately smiled and raised his eyebrows at Li Yan. His meaning was very clear: Brother-in-law, even without you, I, Qiangzi, can still make great contributions. If it weren't for me, we would have missed out on this money.

"Qiangzi, you loser, this is all my money." Li Yan looked at the room full of cash and sighed with heartache, not wanting to see Huo Qiqiang's smug face anymore.
