Hong Kong Film Intelligence King

Chapter 80 Ah Zhong, have you hired an intelligence organization outside?
"What do you think of Chen Guozhong?" Wang Dao asked Li Jie.

Before leaving, Wang Dao asked Li Jie a question—did he want to bring the doctor to justice, or did he want to take revenge himself?

After thinking for a long time, Li Jie finally replied that the doctor should be brought to justice.

He certainly wanted to take revenge himself, but as long as the doctor was brought to justice, that would be revenge for his wife and children.

Li Jie has been waiting for three years, and he can't wait any longer.

After thinking for a moment, Li Jie replied:
"Inspector Chan is a pure cop with a strong sense of justice."

Wang Dao nodded slightly.

"Yes."

"That's the kind of person he is."

"So, do you want to take revenge yourself?"

Li Jie's eyes widened:
"Is that okay?"

Wang Dao shrugged:

"You just said that Chen Guozhong is a very righteous person, but what you said is not right."

Li Jie was taken aback.

Wang Dao chuckled lightly:
"For Chen Guozhong, justice is inviolable, and even his identity as a police officer cannot restrain him."

Li Jie shook his head.

The Way of the King:

"not understand?"

Li Jie nodded:
"not understand."

Wang Dao said calmly:
"You used to be a SWAT officer, did you convict everyone you arrested?"

"I'm talking about those guys who have enough evidence to prove their crimes."

Li Jie shook his head:
"How could they all be convicted?"

"There are so many great lawyers in Hong Kong."

Wang Dao said calmly:
"Is it?"

“Our Inspector Chen is thinking of convicting all criminals.”

“Even if those 'instant noodle hair' types in the court don’t care, this Inspector Chan will find a way to bring them to justice.”

Li Jie was taken aback.

So, Chen Guozhong is doing something wicked in a righteous way!
Wang Dao laughed and said:

“If it were someone else in charge, they probably wouldn’t have let you participate in this operation targeting doctors.”

Li Jie was pleasantly surprised:

"Brother Dao, do you mean that Inspector Chen will let me participate in the operation?"

Wang Dao looked at him with curiosity:
Do you know the tactics of a special operations company?

Li Jie shook his head.

Wang Dao sighed:

"Don't even think about joining the operation."

Li Jie's mood was visibly low.

Wang Dao sighed:

"What on earth are you thinking about?"

"Even Chen Guozhong would never allow someone to participate in an operation with the special agents. Why do you think you can?"

Li Jie thought about it and agreed.

Even a police inspector like Chen Guozhong couldn't be associated with secret agents, so his request was truly wishful thinking.

"However, although we cannot act together with the Special Agent Company, we can act together with Chen Guozhong."

what? !

Li Jie was stunned.

Wang Dao smiled and said:
"You've really been out of the police force for too long; you can't even understand their procedures anymore."

"The Special Agent Company claims to be a faction, and even the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau (OCTB) cannot possibly infiltrate it."

"But there's no rule that says the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau (OCTB) can't get involved in cases that the Special Agents Company is involved in, right?"

Li Jie exclaimed excitedly:
"In reality, such cases are often handled by the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau (OCTB), and the Special Operations Company will only participate in the operation after the OCTB requests it."

“In that case, I could really get involved in this case.”

Wang Dao shrugged:

"Then let's just wait patiently."

Li Jie said in astonishment:
"Shouldn't we contact Inspector Chen?"

Wang Dao said softly:
"Ah Jie, you're just letting your concern cloud your judgment."

"Have you forgotten? Chen Guozhong is going back to the police station to ask his superiors for approval of his plan."

"Who has time to deal with you and me right now?"

"Let's wait another half hour, then we'll contact Chen Guozhong again. Who knows how much trouble Chen Guozhong is in right now."

Li Jie immediately realized that this made sense.

Chen Guozhong immediately approached Chen Xinjian, whose eyes widened in surprise:

"what?"

"A group of doctors?"

"Is that the doctor gang with hundreds of lives on their hands, the one whose members we can't even find out what they look like?"

Chen Guozhong nodded vigorously:

"That's them."

Chen Xinjian frowned and said:

Where are they aiming now?

Wang Dao had told Chen Guozhong this, so he reported the matter directly:
"The doctors' gang had their eyes on the Russian jewelry that was to be transported to Hong Kong for exhibition."

"This batch of royal jewels is worth thirty million US dollars."

"If the doctors' gang succeeds, it will be enough for them to retire on the spot."

Chen Xinjian asked in astonishment:
"Is the news true?"

Chen Guozhong nodded repeatedly:
"true."

Chen Xinjian frowned and said:

"So we have to wait until the exhibition opens to make the arrangements?"

Chen Guozhong shook his head:

"No."

Chen Xinjian asked in bewilderment:

"why?"

Chen Guozhong smiled wryly:

"This batch of jewelry is a gimmick, a promotional prop for the opening ceremony of a large hotel."

"On the opening day, the hotel will invite one hundred Hong Kong celebrities to the banquet."

"In this way, the hotel's reputation will be established."

Chen Xinjian's expression changed drastically:
"One hundred Hong Kong celebrities?"

Chen Guozhong sighed:
"That's not the most troublesome part. The troublesome part is that these celebrities don't come on their own; each of them can invite three people."

"That means there will be more than 400 people attending the banquet."

"If we had made a move then, don't say it wasn't our home turf."

"Even if it's our home turf, how should we decorate?"

"Extremely troublesome."

Chen Xinjian frowned and said:

"Have you confirmed it?"

Chen Guozhong frankly stated:

"I've confirmed it."

The information provided by Wang Dao indicated that there were no counterfeit products, and it turned out that every single one was absolutely genuine.

Based on Wangdao's past reputation, Chen Guozhong did not hesitate to vouch for him.

Chen Xinjian patted his forehead:

"So what's your plan? Infiltrate beforehand?"

Chen Guozhong asked, puzzled:

Why did we infiltrate beforehand?

Chen Xinjian explained:

“Those are a hundred celebrities from Hong Kong. If anything happens to them, the Governor will definitely turn our police station upside down.”

Chen Guozhong quickly said:

"No, why would we let them rob the hotel?"

Chen Xinjian was taken aback, and looked at Chen Guozhong, saying:
"Then what do you mean?"

Chen Guozhong felt baffled:
"Sir, the doctor and his gang are trying to rob the hotel. Let's stop them from doing it."

"I have already investigated the details of the doctor's gang and have specifically requested the Flying Tigers to be dispatched."

what? !

Chen Xinjian was shocked:
"Did you ask the intelligence agencies for help?"

"They even managed to find intelligence on the doctors' group?"

"Do you know how long our paparazzi team has been looking for this guy?"

How did you find it?

Chen Guozhong said speechlessly:

"Sir, this joke is not funny."

Where am I supposed to find intelligence agencies?

He paused suddenly at this point.

You know what, Wang Dao's intelligence network is incredibly efficient; it's like he has an intelligence agency behind him.

He hadn't even noticed these things if Chen Xinjian hadn't brought them up.

Chen Xinjian was genuinely surprised:
"They really contacted intelligence agencies?"

Chen Guozhong came to his senses and said:

"How can this be?"

Chen Xinjian nodded:

“I told you it was impossible.”

"You don't know, this group of doctors committed quite a few cases in previous years, one of which involved foreigners from the 30th and 43rd Bureaus."

"The top leader was furious and ordered the paparazzi to investigate thoroughly, even if it meant digging three feet into the ground, to find these people."

Three years have passed in the blink of an eye, and there hasn't been a single word from them.

Chen Guozhong clenched his fists secretly. Are the lives of foreigners precious, but the lives of Hong Kong people not precious?
Wang Dao is right; to uphold justice, one must climb the ladder.

Chen Xinjian said excitedly:

“Ah Zhong, I told you before that you could get promoted if you could bring Johnny Wang to justice.”

"I don't think it will take that long. As long as the doctors' gang can be brought to justice, I can still get promoted."

"At the very least, a senior inspector."

Chen Guozhong collected his thoughts and quickly said:

"Thank you sir!"

Chen Xinjian gave him a strange look:
"What are you thanking me for?"

"This is what you deserve."

"Crazy line!"

"Alright, get ready, I'm going to see the big boss. By the way, how many people are in the doctor's group? What kind of equipment do they have?"

Chen Guozhong said expressionlessly:

"There were forty-one of them in total, all fully armed, with firepower comparable to the Flying Tigers."

Chen Xinjian gasped:
"so many people?"

Chen Guozhong's expression was unusually serious:
"Not only that, they also have strict military discipline."

Chen Xinjian, on the contrary, did not find it strange:
“We had already obtained their profiles from other cases.”

"Not surprisingly."

"Okay, get ready. I need you to be with me on this and do a good job."

Chen Guozhong said solemnly:

"Thank you, sir." He understood that Chen Xinjian was giving him a chance.

He certainly wanted to seize this opportunity.

Meanwhile, Wang Dao and Li Jie were on their way.

Li Jie looked at Wang Dao, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopping himself.

Wang Dao was very puzzled:

"What's your expression?"

"Don't keep things to yourself."

Li Jie began by saying:

"Brother Dao, aren't you very well-informed?"

Wang Dao shrugged:

What kind of intelligence do you want to see?

Li Jie quickly asked:

"What about information about the doctor?"

Wang Dao laughed and said:

"I do know a little bit about it."

Li Jie smiled wryly:
"Brother Dao is so modest?"

“I investigated the doctor myself for three years, and I didn’t even know what he looked like.”

"Let alone doctors, we don't even know who the doctors' gang is."

"It's not just me, the police station is the same."

Wang Dao glanced at him and said...

"I'm lucky, and of course you're lucky too."

Li Jie couldn't help but ask:
"I have a question I'd like to ask you..."

Wang Dao thought for a moment, and suddenly understood what Li Jie wanted to ask:

"What you want to ask is which fuse in the bomb the doctor made was the life-saving fuse, right?"

Li Jie's fists were clenched so tightly they turned white:

"Correct!"

The Way of Kings is straightforward:
"Whether it's a red line or a blue line, neither is a lifeline; they are all deathlines."

Li Jie's mouth gaped open:

"what?"

Wang Dao explained:
"The doctor is a master at manipulating people's hearts."

"You come from a special police background and are a renowned bomb disposal expert."

"But the situation you faced at the time was very complicated."

"Your wife and children are being threatened with a bomb, which leaves you with no extra time to consider the bomb situation. It's already difficult enough to grit your teeth and make a decision under the pressure of the countdown, let alone having a doctor misleading you."

Li Jie was taken aback:
"Was the doctor misleading people?"

"no?"

"He just told me... the most important thing is for a person to rely on themselves."

Wang Dao said calmly:
"That statement is misleading."

Li Jie was stunned, staring at Wang Dao in disbelief:

"Is this statement misleading?"

"how is this possible?"

Wang Dao sighed:

“I know the truth, and it’s easy for me to say it, but no one would react easily in that situation.”

"The detonation device made by the doctor is very ingenious."

"It looks like he gave you two lines to cut."

"One red line and one yellow line, a one-in-five chance, right?"

Li Jie's voice trembled as he asked in return:

"Isn't that right?"

Wang Dao nodded slightly.

"Of course not!"

Do you remember what happened back then?

"Aside from the bomb, the doctor and his team have already retreated."

Li Jie nodded solemnly:

"Correct."

Wang Dao countered with a question:
"This is not the first time such a timed detonation device has appeared. Before you, many bomb disposal experts have defused bombs made by doctors."

"Was there a single success?"

Boom.

Li Jie was stunned:

"No."

Wang Dao sneered:
Is it because their technology is immature?

Li Jie shook his head:
"impossible!"

“Bomb disposal experts are all experienced professionals; if their skills were not up to par, they would have been seriously injured or killed long ago.”

Wang Dao then asked:
"Is it because the doctor's skills are beyond your comprehension?"

"Let me put it clearly: is it that the bombs the doctors made are ahead of their time, leaving you helpless?"

Li Jie shook his head:
"Less likely."

"I examined the detonator he made carefully afterward, and it was quite ordinary."

Wang Dao sighed:

"But you can't solve this fairly simple device?"

Li Jie's pupils contracted; Wang Dao's words had hit a nerve.

That's right, it's this seemingly ordinary bomb that I couldn't unlock myself.

Not only that, even the police's bomb disposal experts were helpless.

This is inherently illogical.

Surely not all bomb disposal experts are that unlucky?

The kingly way has revealed the answer:
"The answer is simple: neither of those two lines, whether red, yellow, or blue, are living lines."

"Those two lines were left there on purpose so you could cut them."

"Time was of the essence, and with the doctor putting pressure on you, so..."

"You have to choose one of the two lines to cut."

Li Jie frowned and said:
"But traditional bombs must have a lifeline to control their explosion."

"If it's not one of the red and yellow lines, then what could it be?"

Wang Dao said in a deep voice:
"Beyond these two lines, there is a thin metal line that you would definitely notice under normal circumstances."

"But in that situation, your vision is completely occupied by the red and yellow lines."

"The metal wires, which are usually not noticeable unless you look closely, were even less likely to be discovered under those circumstances."

Li Jie exclaimed in shock:
"This...is this true?"

Wang Dao said calmly:
"This matter can actually be argued by working backwards."

"The doctor is very arrogant. Anyone who saw his true colors or those of his accomplices in the cases he took on is dead."

"So what was the purpose of leaving behind a timed detonation device?"

"He had those two lines cut. Wasn't he afraid that someone might get incredibly lucky and find the lifeline?"

"With one life and one death, a 50% chance is already quite high."

"What if the doctor makes a mistake?"

"Hasn't he gotten himself into a crisis?"

"Under such circumstances, the only option is to ensure that the bomb detonates at the correct time."

"The safe approach is that no matter which wire the bomb disposal expert removes, it will detonate the detonator!"

Li Jie clenched his fist tightly:

"I see!"

"I finally understand!"

For the past three years, he has often returned to that moment in his dreams, facing a decision almost every few days, but he has never succeeded.

I didn't understand the reason before, but now I finally do.

Neither of the two lines he chose at the time were viable!

Wang Dao patted him on the shoulder:

"This is not your fault. I learned this from various cases."

"No one would bother looking for the third thread if they didn't know beforehand that there was such a bastard as the doctor."

"This doctor took advantage of people's inertia and deliberately led us in the wrong direction."

Li Jie's eyes were bloodshot:

"I'm going to kill him."

Wang Dao looked at him and said:

"Don't worry, the doctor is definitely going to die tonight."

"If the Flying Tigers can't kill him, I'll take care of him myself."

Li Jie said gratefully:
"Thank you, boss."

Wang Dao rarely takes action, leading many to believe he is simply a sunny boy with a constant smile.

But only his three underlings knew just how powerful Wang Dao really was.

Neither Chen Guozhong nor Liang Kun knew Wang Dao's true strength.

With the promise of benevolent rule, the doctor is doomed!
Soon, Wang Dao brought Li Jie to see Chen Guozhong again:
What are you two doing here?

Wang Dao doesn't play riddles with Chen Guozhong:

"My brother, I want to join you on this mission."

"As for me, I'm just here to see what it's like."

Chen Guozhong frowned and said in a low voice:
Do you think this is children playing house?

"That abandoned construction site is right across the street. We have no idea what's inside. If the medical team finds us, we'll all die here."

Even so, Chen Guozhong still said to Li Jie,

"Just this once, never happen again."

Li Jie repeatedly expressed his gratitude:

"Thank you, Inspector Chan."

Chen Guozhong said to Li Jie:

"Although you come from a special police background, you've been away from the team for three years. The special police tactics have been updated a long time ago, and the instructions are very different from before."

"Even if we let you participate, we won't let you fire a gun."

"Most of the time, I'm just bearing witness."

Li Jie said he understood.

How could he not know that this was the case?

Things are different now; he is no longer a special police officer, but a member of the Hung Hing Mong Kok branch.

Chen Guozhong allowed him to participate because he recognized the doctor's identity as a victim in the case.

Li Jie naturally wouldn't push his luck.

However, the path of the king is different; he truly went too far:
"Inspector Chen, please let me participate as well."

Chen Guozhong's pupils contracted, and he whispered:
What are you doing, making such a mess?

Wang Dao shrugged:

"I didn't cause any trouble."

"Let me show you my sincerity first."

Chen Guozhong exclaimed in astonishment:

What other sincerity do you have?

Wang Dao smiled and waved, and a person quietly approached from a distance.

Chen Guozhong's eyes widened, and his jaw almost dropped:
"Reporter Yue, what brings you here?!"
