Hong Kong Variety Show: From Little Brother to Big Boss

Jiang Tiansheng waved his hand gently, interrupting Chen Yao's words with an unquestionable attitude:

"We at Hongxing have a lot of businesses in Fusang. Proper exchange of favors is like a lubricant for us, and it brings us a lot of benefits."

His eyes revealed a farsighted light, "Besides, this time we are just asking for help to find the traitor."

"Even if the brothers and sisters in the martial arts world knew about this, it would only be a topic of conversation after dinner, harmless."

Seeing this, Chen Yao knew that Mr. Jiang had made up his mind, so he swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

He shook his head helplessly, turned and walked out of the door of the main hall's reception room, and began to contact Shen Shuishe's headmistress, Jing Ma, to seek her assistance and support.

On the other side, on the way back to the boxing gym, Tian Yangyi drove the car steadily. His eyes occasionally swept across the front, but he did not forget to turn his head to ask Liu Xu who was sitting in the passenger seat:

"Brother Xu, you were clearly planning to use those sixteen people to drown Sun Dong alive, right? Why did you suddenly change your mind?"

His tone was a mixture of curiosity and confusion, and he was obviously quite surprised by Liu Xu's sudden change of decision.

Even Tian Yangsheng, who was sitting in the passenger seat, couldn't help but prick up his ears quietly, waiting attentively for Liu Xu's answer.

Hearing this, Liu Xu's lips curled up into a meaningful smile, and his eyes looked out the window, where the scenery was rapidly receding and life was unpredictable.

He spoke slowly, his voice steady and powerful: "Life is like a game of chess, each game is new. Originally, I did want to kill the opponent directly, but the variables cannot be ignored."

Tian Yangyi scratched his head with one hand and looked at Liu Xu with confusion, obviously finding it difficult to understand what he was saying.

"Brother Xu, can you please make everything you say clear and direct, so that it's easier to understand? We are all Xia people, I don't think we should play charades or beat around the bush."

Seeing this, Tian Yangsheng patted Tian Yangyi's head with a bit of blame and helplessness.

"Can you please focus on the road and stop being distracted? Brother Xu meant that there were strangers present at the time and it was inconvenient for us to act rashly."

Liu Xu nodded slowly in agreement with Tian Yangsheng's explanation.

"Yes, just as Ah Sheng said. You two are our own people, and everyone in the water plant, whether they are chosen by me or not, are pawns in this game."

He paused, his eyes becoming more profound.

"In this situation, when someone suddenly breaks in who is neither one of us nor a pawn in the game, we naturally need to change our original strategy."

"Murder is a secretive and shady business that can only be carried out with one's own people or without anyone else."

"Once exposed to the sun, it is likely to backfire and burn itself."

Liu Xu's words revealed a calmness. Tian Yangyi and Tian Yangsheng listened silently, and their understanding of Liu Xu increased a little more.

After returning to the boxing gym, Liu Xu instructed Tian Yang and the other man to deal with Tian Yangsi's financial matters, and then he went into the bedroom alone and began his daily meditation practice.

With the continuous improvement of his spiritual attributes, Liu Xu's investment in meditation has been refined from the initial lengthy two hours to just half an hour today.

He concentrated his mind and calmed his breath, his thoughts flowing like water into the depths of his heart, his eyes closed, immersed in the deep world of meditation.

As Liu Xu sank into the spiritual world, in a dark corner of Tsim Sha Tsui, the moonlight seemed to be swallowed up by the heavy shadows, unable to reach this hidden place.

At this moment, a low and complex conversation sounded quietly, containing extremely sensitive information.

A middle-aged man who had long been hidden in the shadows was carefully examining the back of the person who came, as if he did not want to miss even the slightest fluctuation in the air.

Although he saw that there was no one behind him, he still felt unsure. With a hint of tentativeness and caution in his tone, he confirmed with the man in front of him:

"Hideo, are you sure you're not being followed by anyone?"

Upon hearing this, the man named Hideo simply nodded, his expression as cold as ice, with a hint of displeasure and doubt in his tone:

"Night Cat, why don't you contact me directly by radio? You should know that my big brother is now an important figure in the underworld of Hong Kong Island."

"Influenced by him, every time we go out, we may become the focus of everyone's attention and be closely watched by countless eyes."

The man named Night Cat frowned slightly when he heard this. He knew very well that Hideo's current situation was indeed delicate and sensitive, but the urgency and importance of the mission did not allow for any slackness.

At the same time, he also keenly captured a hint of dissatisfaction and rejection from Hideo's seemingly calm but sharp words.

He gently patted Hideo's shoulder, with an indescribable meaning in that action:

"Your elderly parents, gentle wife and lovely children far away in your hometown are all well taken care of by the department."

"Now, the country needs you to stand up. You won't back down at this time, right?"

Hideo's expression looked even darker under the dim light, but he answered without any hesitation, and continued with Yemao's words in a very natural tone:

"Of course not. I'm just dissatisfied with the way you act. You knew that as an undercover agent, every action I take is treading on thin ice, but you still took the risk to ask me out."

"This is a blatant disregard for my life. We could have communicated via a safer, more secret radio station."

Yemao stared at Hideo's eyes closely. Seeing that he didn't notice anything unusual, his face relaxed slightly, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his tone became a little more relaxed:

"For minor matters, or information that does not involve sensitive British affairs, there is naturally no problem in using the radio to convey it in Hong Kong Island."

"But this mission is of great importance. It involves not only the conflict of interests between the two countries, but also the direction of negotiations between major powers."

Upon hearing this, Hideo couldn't help but frown slightly. He asked tentatively, "You mean to say that this mission is related to the negotiations between Britain and the northern powers on the ownership of Hong Kong Island?"

Yemao nodded gently, and the look on his face suddenly became unusually serious, as if an invisible pressure was looming between the two of them:

"Our spies in the northern country sent back news that the negotiations between the two countries have made substantial progress."

"If there is no external interference, the results of the negotiations between the two countries will be finalized and announced by this time next year at the latest."

"So, the task assigned to us by the headquarters is to stir up chaos in the Hong Kong Island community in order to disrupt the negotiations between Britain and Xia Country on the ownership of Hong Kong Island."

"This is a war without the smoke of gunpowder. We must go all out and never let Xiaguo and Britain successfully reach an agreement to take back Hong Kong Island."

"Has the cabinet formulated a detailed action plan?" As soon as Yemao finished speaking, Hideo asked a question, his eyes revealing a concern that could not be ignored.

Night Cat smiled softly, and said confidently, "Of course, everything is under control."
