After Liu Jianming parted ways with Sister Marry, he rushed to Huadi's office. Huadi was buried in a pile of documents, busy with work.

Ni Kun, a figure who has dominated Tsim Sha Tsui for decades, possesses deep-rooted power. He spent a fortune purchasing a villa decades ago, and the exact date of his involvement in drug trafficking is unclear. It's easy to imagine that the criminal records on Ni Kun and his family would pile up taller than a person.

Now, the police have finally resolved to launch a thorough investigation into Ni Kun, a daunting task. With so much to do, Huadi hasn't been home for days, much to the dismay of his wife, Jojo. However, Huadi is determined to become a successful police officer, and Jojo, knowing his ideals and ambitions, fully supports him, despite some resentment.

Although it was not easy to stay alone in an empty house, JOJO still endured it. However, she still decided to express her little dissatisfaction to Huadi. After all, it was not pretentious, but a small adjustment between husband and wife.

When Liu Jianming reported to Huadi about Sister Marry's request that he kill Ni Kun's bodyguards to eliminate future troubles, Huadi couldn't help but frown and asked, "You said Sister Marry asked you to kill Ni Kun's bodyguards to eliminate future troubles?"

"Yes, sir, if I'm not mistaken, Sister Marry bribed these bodyguards or one of them. Only in this way can we explain why his bodyguards were not there when I went to kill Ni Kun." Liu Jianming answered with certainty.

Huadi nodded thoughtfully, then asked, "Did you record it?"

Liu Jianming quickly responded, "I recorded it. It's right here." As he spoke, he took out a cassette tape from his pocket and carefully placed it on Huadi's desk.

Huadi picked up the tape and examined it carefully, as if studying a precious artifact. After a moment, he slowly asked, "What are you going to do next?"

Huadi naturally wouldn't let Liu Jianming be a mere subordinate who obeyed orders. He hoped to train Liu Jianming into a capable and independent person, so he attached great importance to Liu Jianming's ideas and suggestions.

"Commander, I think we can first capture those bodyguards without anyone noticing, and then let them listen to Sister Marry's recording, so that they can clearly realize that they are in a desperate situation and have no way out. Then, we will release them and let them go undercover to Ni Kun to help us collect intelligence." Liu Jianming suggested enthusiastically.

Huadi's lips curled up slightly, revealing an interested smile. He said, "Well, that does sound like a good idea. However, Liu Jianming, you don't seem to have completely gotten rid of your gangster mentality. You have to know that you are a police officer now, and police officers can't do things the way you say."

Huadi's words were like a bucket of cold water, instantly dampening Liu Jianming's enthusiasm. His face flushed crimson, as if he'd been publicly slapped. Although he felt his idea was sound, Huadi's disapproval meant there was definitely something wrong with it.

Liu Jianming wasn't the type to be self-righteous. He knew Huadi's wisdom and experience far surpassed his own. So, rather than being upset by Huadi's denial, he listened even more humbly to what Huadi said next, hoping to learn something truly useful.

Hua Di paused for a moment and then continued, "Think about it, if we really do what you said, arrest those bodyguards, make them listen to the recording of Sister Marry wanting to kill them, and then release these recordings to let Ni Kun know, these bodyguards will indeed become tainted witnesses because they are desperate. But have you ever thought about the consequences of doing so?"

Liu Jianming listened to Hua Di's words and fell into deep thought. He originally thought this was a good idea, but after Hua Di's reminder, he suddenly realized the possible problems.

Seeing this, Hua Di continued, "First, these bodyguards are all Ni Kun's men, and they are likely to retaliate against us. Secondly, even if they are willing to become tainted witnesses, Ni Kun will not sit idly by. He will definitely do everything he can to prevent these evidence from being made public. Moreover, once these recordings are released, our identities will be exposed, which is not a good thing for us."

After listening to Huadi's analysis, Liu Jianming suddenly realized that his previous thinking was indeed a bit too simple and impulsive.

Huadi looked at Liu Jianming and said earnestly, "So, I hope you will think carefully before making any decision. Don't just look at the superficial benefits and ignore the potential risks. I need a subordinate who can think independently and have his own opinions, not someone who blindly follows orders."

After listening to this, Liu Jianming immediately realized that he might have missed some important details, but he didn't hesitate at all. He said directly to his superior, "Commander, we can't wait any longer! Ni Kun will definitely investigate his bodyguards. If he finds any clues, he will definitely kill them without hesitation. If then, we will miss this great opportunity!"

However, this time, Huadi did not respond to Liu Jianming immediately as before, but looked at him quietly, as if thinking about something. After a while, Huadi frowned slightly, and he seemed to suddenly understand why Liu Jianming was so persistent.

Liu Jianming had always been quite intelligent, but today he seemed reckless and thoughtless. Huadi couldn't help but wonder why.

After some deep reflection, Huadi finally realized the truth. Liu Jianming's background had shaped his thinking and behavior. Coming from the bottom of society, without a good family background or a quality education, he had entered the complex world of organized crime at a young age.

In the gang, everything Liu Jianming heard and learned was about absolute obedience to the boss's orders, without the slightest disobedience. This concept had long been deeply ingrained in his mind, becoming part of his code of conduct. It could be said to be a form of subtle brainwashing.

Thinking of this, Huadi realized that in order to allow Liu Jianming to fully develop his intelligence and talents, he must break this long-standing mindset and stimulate his inner potential.

After making up his mind, Huadi took a deep breath, stared at Liu Jianming with sharp eyes, and said slowly: "You really don't think there is something wrong with my idea just now? Don't rush to answer, think about it carefully." His voice was low and serious, as if carrying an unquestionable power.

After saying this, Huadi did not look away, but continued to stare firmly into Liu Jianming's eyes, as if he wanted to see his true thoughts through his eyes.

Liu Jianming felt Huadi's gaze and hesitated for a moment before starting to think seriously. After a while, he finally spoke, "It seems a bit problematic, but getting the bodyguards to identify Ni Kun as evidence shouldn't be a problem. Besides, those bodyguards are desperate and have no choice but to act as witnesses. Otherwise, neither Ni Kun, Marry Sister, nor Han Chen will let them go. They'll be doomed."

After hearing Liu Jianming's words, Huadi let out a faint wry smile, a hint of disappointment in Liu Jianming. He slowly shook his head and whispered, "Have you ever considered your role in this? Haven't you ever worried about yourself?" His words betrayed a hint of helplessness and worry, as if he didn't fully agree with Liu Jianming's ideas.

Liu Jianming was shocked by Huadi's words and began to reevaluate his proposal. Huadi's words struck him like a hammer, making him realize that his previous thinking might have been too naive. He began to ponder the problems with Huadi's proposal, what role he would play in it, and what price he would pay.

Liu Jianming pondered silently, his mind racing through the various possible consequences. He considered the difficulties and dangers he might face if Huadi followed through with this suggestion. He couldn't help but feel a wave of fear, yet at the same time, he was filled with gratitude for Huadi's warning.

After a moment, Liu Jianming raised his head and his eyes met Huadi's. He gazed into Huadi's eyes and said sincerely, "Thank you, sir. I think I understand the flaw in this plan. I never imagined you truly treated me like a subordinate, like one of your own. Thank you very much." His voice carried a hint of guilt, yet also revealed his admiration and gratitude for Huadi.
