Ni Kun's meeting with his lawyer was brief, and their conversation was unusually concise. After all, they had worked together for years, and their tacit understanding had long since transcended words. Many things were tacitly understood, and the lawyer naturally understood the next steps. Ni Kun, on the other hand, knew he couldn't easily admit his guilt. The so-called "leniency for confession" might work for some criminals, but for someone like Ni Kun, confessing would only result in a harsher punishment. Ni Kun's crimes went far beyond drug trafficking.

As soon as the lawyer left the room, the police quickly took Ni Kun back to the detention room. Ni Kun will spend an unknown period of time here, and his future destination depends entirely on the lawyer's ability to handle the case and the attitude of the police this time.

However, Ni Kun's thoughts didn't stop even though he was imprisoned. He was racking his brains over what had gone wrong in this transaction. The police's appearance was completely unexpected, and they were clearly well-prepared. Ni Kun's men had already searched the warehouse before the deal, yet the police still appeared suddenly, like a force from heaven. There had to be something wrong somewhere. Could it be... there was a traitor?

Ni Kun was secretly pleased with himself, for he had long known that Luo Ji was the traitor, yet he had deliberately kept him by his side. He considered it a brilliant arrangement. Having an undercover officer lurking by his side for a long time was like having a reliable witness to the events.

What made Ni Kun even more satisfied was that in order to gain his trust, Luo Ji willingly helped him do many shady things. Although these things were shady, they made Ni Kun's trust in Luo Ji grow day by day.

What made Ni Kun happiest was that despite Luo Ji's numerous criminal activities, the undercover police officer hadn't managed to gather any solid evidence over the years. This undoubtedly gave Ni Kun confidence in his plan.

However, the only thing that displeased Ni Kun was that Luo Ji, an undercover police officer, was hacked to death by a few low-ranking dwarfs during a trivial gang conflict. This was ridiculous! Ni Kun felt that Luo Ji had really capsized in the gutter and deserved to die.

Ni Kun was extremely cautious about the time and location of this transaction, not sharing it with too many people. After all, it affected his personal interests and the success of the entire transaction. Only those he truly trusted were fortunate enough to learn this important information.

As for the people who were going to search the warehouse, Ni Kun only informed them half an hour before the transaction time. As a result, even if these people wanted to notify the police, there would definitely not be enough time for the police to make such a detailed deployment.

It can be said that the only person who truly knew the exact time and location was Ni Kun himself. Even his third brother only knew the time of the transaction in advance.

However, the development of the incident was completely beyond Ni Kun's expectations. He couldn't help but wonder if something had gone wrong with Khun Sa's people. But then he thought, that seemed unlikely. Khun Sa was a gambling king and warlord wanted by multiple countries! The police had long been keeping a close eye on him, so how could they let his trusted lieutenant go so easily?

According to common sense, the police should have arrested him and Adjutant Zhang in the warehouse red-handed. That would have been logical. But reality didn't work that way. Why? Ni Kun racked his brains, his head aching, but he still couldn't come up with a reasonable explanation.

So what was going on? All of this was a carefully orchestrated scheme by Hua Di. While Adjutant Zhang was real and indeed Khun Sa's man, this supposed deal was just a cover. The whole thing was a trap for Ni Kun.

Khun Sa, a name recognizable in the drug world, is a household name. Born Zhang Qifu or Zhang Qifu on February 17, 1933, in Nongzhang Village, Laimo Mountain, Shan State, Myanmar, Khun Sa is not only a notorious drug lord but also a Burmese warlord, having served as commander-in-chief of the Mong Tai Army (MTA). His immense influence in the heroin trade has earned him global notoriety.

In 1989, the drug trade in the Golden Triangle reached its peak, and Khun Sa controlled 80% of the drug trade in the entire Golden Triangle, his influence was astonishing. In the history of global drug trafficking, Khun Sa is undoubtedly a pivotal figure, and his name has almost become synonymous with drugs.

Because of this, Ni Kun never thought that there would be any problems with Khun Sa. However, reality ruthlessly gave him a heavy blow - Khun Sa really had problems, and he also severely cheated Ni Kun.

Although Khun Sa was at the height of his power in the Golden Triangle during the 1980s, everything has its ups and downs. In recent years, Khun Sa's influence has gradually waned. His subordinates have begun to harbor dissenting ideas, and even some have rebelled. After negotiations and coordination between various forces, Khun Sa finally decided to lay down his arms and surrender in exchange for his own safety.

Khun Sa knew that if he refused to surrender in such a harsh environment, he would soon face two outcomes: either being absorbed by other drug cartels or being wiped out by government forces. His glorious era had come to an end.

Just as Khun Sa was about to surrender, Hua Di cleverly arranged for Duan Long to meet with him. Together, they orchestrated an elaborate scheme. Ni Kun was the only unwitting loser in this scheme. Khun Sa successfully sold a large amount of overstocked goods from his warehouse to Ni Kun in a secure manner, receiving a substantial financial reward. Combined with his previous wealth from drug trafficking, this sum would provide him with a comfortable retirement.

More importantly, this transaction was completely safe and secure compared to previous ones. Furthermore, even the transportation of drugs from the Golden Triangle to Hong Kong was under the covert protection of the Hong Kong police. Faced with such generous terms, how could Khun Sa not readily agree?

Therefore, when Ni Kun tried to leave early, Adjutant Zhang expressed his firm opposition. After all, if Ni Kun escaped, how would he explain to the Hong Kong police? This was one of the important conditions for him to leave safely with the money!

This explained the confusion that had previously baffled Ni Kun. Only a handful of people in Hong Kong knew the details of this plan, and within the police force, only Commissioner Li Shutang, his son, Senior Superintendent Li Wenbin, and the initiator of the plan, Wah Di, knew the entire plan. The other personnel involved in the operation were only aware of the small part of the operation they were required to participate in.

Because of this, Ni Kun and the forces behind him knew nothing about the inside story of the entire plan, which led to them feeling confused and puzzled when faced with some situations.

As for letting Adjutant Zhang go and the large amount of drug money he would receive, Li Wenbin was initially very determined and could not accept such a move. However, with Huadi's patient persuasion, Li Wenbin's attitude gradually changed, and he finally agreed to this seemingly risky decision.

Wah Di was able to convince Li Wenbin because he revealed another more comprehensive plan to Li Wenbin. This plan made Li Wenbin realize that arresting Adjutant Zhang on the spot and detaining the drug money in Hong Kong, although on the surface it seemed to be the most direct solution, actually had many potential risks and problems.

Especially the drug money, if it is detained in Hong Kong now, those cunning Eagles will definitely try their best to get the money away. In comparison, the other plan proposed by Hua Di is obviously more stable and wise.

After careful consideration, Li Wenbin finally chose to trust Huadi's judgment and agreed to his plan. As it turned out, this decision was correct and the entire plan was successfully completed without any unexpected problems.

After sending Ni Kun to the detention room, Huadi finally felt relieved. However, he did not return to the office immediately, but went straight to the detention room where Huang Zhicheng was held.

Huang Zhicheng is still being held in a police cell and has not been referred to the Department of Justice for prosecution, which is clearly inconsistent with current legal provisions. However, Huang Zhicheng appears remarkably calm about this, knowing full well that this is a special measure taken by the police force to protect him.

When Hua Di arrived at the detention room and looked at Huang Zhicheng behind the bars, he asked directly, "Ni Kun has been caught red-handed. What are your plans next?"
