Hong Kong Variety Show: From Little Brother to Big Boss

The moment he caught a glimpse of the person watching him, Liu Xu's mood sank to the bottom.

The fair skin and brown hair swaying gently in the breeze, such striking features undoubtedly verified Liu Xu's guess that he was indeed a minion of the Hong Kong Island Political Department.

These people, like the dark forest in the night, are unscrupulous on the land of Hong Kong Island, relying on the support of others. Their figures are always closely connected with those unknown secrets.

For example, in the "Princess Kashmir" incident on April 1955, , this group of people was behind it.

Realizing that he was being followed by such a difficult group of people, Liu Xu showed no strangeness on his face. He kept his casual expression and walked towards the boxing gym.

In Hong Kong Island, without a sufficiently strong official background or prominent social identity to support oneself, once one falls into the hands of the Special Branch, it will be like a sheep in the mouth of a tiger, and it will be difficult to escape.

The Political Department of Hong Kong Island is similar to the intelligence agencies of other countries. They are omnipresent and pervasive. Any factors that may threaten "stability" will become their target for elimination.

Once someone is unfortunately involved, especially when it comes to sensitive issues such as national security, even those who want to lend a helping hand will be deterred by the fear of being implicated.

He returned to the gym and breathed a sigh of relief when he felt the sight behind him disappear. After sending away Scorpion Tail and Wolf Boy, he went to the meeting room on the third floor alone.

Liu Xu, who was sitting at the first seat, tapped the table lightly and lowered his head in thought: "On that day alone, Boss Lin went to countless bars, nightclubs and other places, involving a large number of people."

"They should have arranged surveillance not only here, but also in Tsim Sha Tsui, Yau Ma Tei, Mong Kok and other places where the big bosses of major gangs should have arranged surveillance."

"Add to that the four major families in Hong Kong who have acquired the other party's assets and myself. This round of investigation will take at least three months, right?"

Thinking of this, he suddenly regretted signing for Boss Lin’s water plant too early.

In Hong Kong Island when the white people were in power, water plants, power plants, telephone companies, television stations, etc. were all considered public utilities, and the Hong Kong Island government stipulated that public utilities were licensed and monopolized.

In other words, only bigwigs with close ties to the Hong Kong government, or people directly from the British country, can own companies in this area.

"I don't know how Boss Lin got the water plant license." Liu Xu was a little confused. It stands to reason that Boss Lin, who has such a relationship, would not be coveted by the hyenas in the Political Department.

Now, once the foreigners find out that the water company is under their name, they will have no chance to clear themselves even if they jump into the Yellow River.

Liu Xu didn't know that when Boss Lin handed the water company to him, he also took a set of protective measures and signed a series of agreements with the Huo family.

Although he signed the contract, the current water plant is not shown in the notary office under his name, but under the name of the Huo family. Only after half a year will the water plant be automatically changed to his asset.

When dealing with the assets, Boss Lin thought that the water plant would be a bit conspicuous. Therefore, he promised to sell the water plant to the Chinese in exchange for helping them share the attention of the foreigners.

Compared with the promise to hand over the water plant to the Chinese, the attention of the foreigners was nothing to the Huo family. After Mr. Huo found out that Boss Lin was unwilling to sell the water plant to him, he reached this agreement with Boss Lin on the spot.

With the identity of "red-top businessman", the foreigners can only add two more restrictions to the Huo family, which is insignificant.

With a deep sigh, Liu Xu felt that he needed to prepare more powerful weapons. If the other party really wanted to settle the score, having powerful weapons in hand would give him a chance to escape.

As the night fell and the stars disappeared, Liu Xu took advantage of the early morning to sneak out of the gym. His steps were as light as a forest in the night, and he shuttled through the streets where the noise had subsided.

He first went to the night market controlled by Zhong Xinyi and purchased a batch of sleeping pills and bones with meat scraps, then turned and rushed to the Repulse Bay villa area.

After arriving at the villa area, he used his extraordinary eyesight to find the target's house number.

First, he sprinkled the crushed sleeping pills on the bones and threw them into the yard. In an instant, a few rapid barkings of dogs broke the tranquility of the night. Then, the lights in the villa were bright and there were shadowy figures, obviously startled by the barking of dogs.

Liu Xu hid in the dark, patiently waiting, quietly observing the movements in the villa. Time passed by, and after repeated fruitless explorations, the lights in the courtyard finally dimmed and returned to peace.

Seeing this, Liu Xu acted quickly. He moved to a hidden corner, and with the cover of the night and the wall, he leaped vigorously and stood steadily on the top of the wall.

Then, he took a deep breath, adjusted his physical condition, suddenly jumped up, grabbed the eaves of the second floor with both hands, and then climbed up silently like a gecko.

Liu Xu moved like a ghost in the corridor on the second floor. His footsteps were light and silent, and each step was carefully calculated. He checked the rooms that were not lit one by one.

With his keen intuition and rich experience, he quickly locked on to his target.

Arriving at the door of the target room, he gently pushed the door and found it was locked. But he did not panic.

He quietly walked around to the back of the room, gently pushed open the window, and sneaked into the house silently. The whole process was silent, as if even the air had not been disturbed.

After entering the room, Liu Xu did not take out the weapon in the space, but used his gloved hand to gently pat the other person's cheek, with a gentle tone: "Uncle Hai, wake up. Wake up."

Uncle Hai slowly woke up from his dream. He saw that it was pitch black in front of him but someone was calling him. He could also feel someone slapping him on the face from time to time, and he immediately lost his sleepiness.

"Who?" Uncle Hai's voice was a little hoarse because he had just woken up, but it could not hide his surprise and vigilance. He reached under the pillow with one hand and waved the other hand violently.

With a "click", the lights in the room suddenly came on. Under the light, nothing could be hidden. Uncle Hai's eyes instantly locked on that figure - a person wearing a black robe and an exquisite mask was sitting quietly beside his bed.

Liu Xu was amazed to see how calm the other party was. "As expected of an old man, he was not frightened at all."

He pointed to the Hong Kong dollars beside the bed and directly stated the purpose of his visit. "Uncle Hai, there are two million Hong Kong dollars. I want heavy firepower weapons. At three o'clock in the morning, I hope to see weapons that are worth the money in the woods not far from your house."

Uncle Hai still had doubts in his heart when he heard this, but the pair of eyes that looked familiar through the eye holes of the mask made him relax his vigilance involuntarily.

Uncle Hai sat up slowly. Although he didn't know who the other party was and what they needed heavy firepower weapons for, he still agreed straightforwardly: "No problem."

"Haha," Liu Xu's smiling voice came from the mask, "Thank you, Uncle Hai. It's twelve o'clock in the morning now. I hope Uncle Hai can move faster. I want to go back and have an early sleep."

After that, Liu Xu unlocked the door and whispered to the room at the door: "I will wait in the woods until I receive the goods. Uncle Hai."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Xu's figure disappeared at the door.
