Hong Kong Variety Show: From Little Brother to Big Boss

After finishing the food on the table, He Yu quickly glanced at the time on his watch.

The clock had slowly moved to half past eleven in the middle of the night. He once again carefully examined the signboard opposite, but the expectation in his heart still failed to manifest itself on it as he wished.

With a gentle wipe, the grease at the corners of his mouth was elegantly wiped away. He Yu then stood up, walked steadily out the door, and blended into the night.

Passing through the dimly lit Argyle Street, he soon stepped into his own sphere of influence.

His sharp eyes swept through the well-organized shops one by one, and he couldn't help but feel an indescribable satisfaction and pride in his heart.

Ever since he switched to He Liansheng's team, respected Liu Xu as his boss, and took over this once turbulent area, he has deeply experienced the benefits of having a solid backing.

The unrest of the past when it was still the territory of the United British Society, the weekly conflicts and the disturbances every other day, all seemed to have become a distant past.

This piece of land that he guards has not been invaded by other forces for more than a month. This rare tranquility makes him feel unprecedented peace of mind and comfort.

Even if there are occasionally a few idle people who don't know the current situation and try to take advantage of it,

After being warned and intimidated by his subordinates, he quickly suppressed his arrogance and left in disgrace.

Everything seemed to be going so smoothly, but it was disrupted by a sudden change - his undercover identity was reactivated.

He Yu sighed deeply, as if he was carrying a heavy burden. He shook his head slowly and walked heavily towards the dark and narrow alley.

As long as he passes through this deep alley, he can successfully reach Tuodi, the mahjong parlor named "Good Luck Fa Fa Fa".

However, at the moment when He Yu was about to step out of the alley, a hand holding a piece of cloth suddenly appeared in his sight like a ghost and covered his mouth and nose tightly.

He Yu only had time to open his eyes wide before he could make any struggle before his sight was quickly swallowed up by the darkness and everything fell silent.

Time passed quietly, and in the blink of an eye it was already the third hour since He Yu disappeared.

At this moment, the door of Liu Xu's room was suddenly knocked by a series of rapid and firm knocks.

"Brother Xu, there is an emergency that needs to be reported!" Outside the door, Scorpion Tail's voice carried a hint of fatigue and anxiety that was difficult to conceal.

In the bedroom, Liu Xu was awakened by the sudden knock on the door. He quickly jumped up from the bed, opened the door, and stared at the slightly haggard face outside the door with sharp eyes.

"What's the matter?" His voice was low and powerful, revealing unquestionable majesty.

"Brother Yu from Naluchen Street... has disappeared." Scorpion Tail reported very quickly, revealing his inner nervousness and anxiety.

Liu Xu frowned slightly, revealing a hint of displeasure and helplessness in his words: "Didn't I already tell you to send someone to keep a close eye on him?"

"How can a person suddenly disappear? Did he escape or meet with an accident?"

Regarding the fact that He Yu's behavior was "problematic", not only Liu Xu himself, but also Scorpion Tail in front of him and the other members of the Tianyang Seven Group knew it very well.

Facing Liu Xu's questioning, Scorpion Tail did not dare to be negligent and quickly responded:

"It must have been an accident. He went to Ah Quan's place alone to have a midnight snack, but he suddenly disappeared in an alley that he had to pass through. I sent people to look for him for an hour but there was no trace of him."

"That alley is not very long. If our people follow in, the risk of being discovered is too great. Therefore, that alley is a blind spot in our vision."

"In addition, the reason why we judged He Yu's disappearance to be a passive event is because our people found traces of dragging at the end of the alley."

Hearing that it was a forced disappearance, Liu Xu breathed a sigh of relief. Although this result was not satisfactory, it was at least within his acceptable range.

The traitor must receive the due punishment, and if it is confirmed that he is a traitor of Fuso, he must be put to death!

He nodded slightly at first, indicating his approval of Scorpion Tail's report, and then changed the subject: "Then have you found out the real purpose of his going to that food stall?"

Scorpion Tail nodded again, with a hint of certainty in his tone: "Through this careful observation and analysis, I can be sure that the other party should be receiving some kind of information."

"As for the location where the information was received, it was the small supermarket opposite the food stall. We have only found this information so far. The specific location and method of contact cannot be determined for the time being."

Upon hearing this, Liu Xu first closed his eyes and concentrated, carefully feeling his own state. Both mentally and physically, he felt that his state had been brought back to its peak.

So, he brought Scorpion Tail to the leisure area on the ninth floor.

He boiled a pot of fragrant tea, poured a cup for each of them, then slowly turned around, looked out the window at the neon lights and the night view of the city, and slowly said:

"Since it has been confirmed that the other party has a problem, there is no need to be too anxious about this matter."

After saying that, Liu Xu stood up and stretched his body. Looking at the slightly serious dark circles under the scorpion's face, he couldn't help but feel a sense of guilt as a capitalist.

He patted Scorpion Tail's shoulder and commanded in an unquestionable tone:

"Staying up late is bad for your health. Go get some rest first. I don't want someone to complain to her six brothers all day long, saying that I abused her boyfriend."

"As for the rest... I'll take care of it myself. I've been staying in the building for the past two days and I feel like I'm getting rusty."

A trace of embarrassment and helplessness flashed across Scorpion Tail's face, but more of it was gratitude for Liu Xu's trust. He nodded, quietly left the room, and headed for the office.

Scorpion Tail did not intend to disobey Liu Xu's orders. In order to ensure that his work could proceed more smoothly, he placed his bedroom in the back room of the office.

As Scorpion Tail left, Liu Xu drank the tea in the cup, found a bicycle downstairs, and headed towards the alley that Scorpion Tail mentioned.

Liu Xu rode his bicycle through the night and soon arrived at the entrance of the dim and narrow alley. He put the bicycle into the space and carefully observed the surrounding environment.

There were towering walls on both sides of the alley. The scene inside was pitch black without a flashlight, and the air was filled with a damp and musty smell.

Liu Xu took a deep breath and walked into the alley with steady steps. His eyes were like those of an eagle, and he could detect traces of the surroundings even in the dark.

When he reached the middle of the alley near the end, he found the dragging traces that Scorpion Tail mentioned. The traces were not obvious, but in Liu Xu's eyes they were like a beacon guiding the direction.

He squatted down and checked it carefully, confirming that it was man-made and it should have happened not long ago.

Arriving at the exit at the end of the alley, Liu Xu roughly estimated the distance and determined that if He Yu shouted for help, the younger brothers in the mahjong hall should be able to hear it.

And since the people in the mahjong hall did not hear any shouting, it must be that the person who kidnapped him must have knocked He Yu unconscious or drugged him before taking him away.

Thinking of this, he stood at the place where He Yu left traces and closed his eyes slightly, his thoughts flowing slowly in his mind. This alley was very narrow and there was no place for people to hide.

Suddenly, Liu Xu opened his eyes abruptly and quickly came to the middle of the alley.
