Hong Kong Movies: The Boss's Global Empire

Chapter 500: Amidst the flash of swords and shadows, Tenglong fell

Zhao Zi, the captain of the action team, sat in a dark police car, observing the gang members' movements. His brow furrowed, knowing that these gangs weren't just fighting for territory or money. He suspected something deeper.

Captain Zhao, should we go back now? Deputy Captain Wang Gang asked, looking at the police car that had already evacuated.

Wait a minute, I think something is wrong here, Zhao Yu responded, his eyes still focused on a group of gang members who were quickly cleaning up the scene.

Finally, Zhao Yu saw what he wanted—a gang member inadvertently revealed a small device hidden on his back.

See that device? Zhao Yu whispered, pointing.

"I see, Captain Zhao. Could they be connected to some high-tech criminal gang?" Wang Gang also became nervous.

I'm not sure, but we'll have to find out.

Back at the police station, Zhao Yu walked straight into the chief's office.

Director, I don’t think we can let them go like this. Zhao Yu spoke bluntly.

Oh? Do you have any new discoveries? The director raised his head and put down the documents in his hand.

Yes, I observed some unusual devices at the scene, and I suspect there is a larger conspiracy behind this.

Just as the director was about to speak, the door opened and the deputy director walked in.

I heard you want to continue the investigation? The deputy director looked displeased.

Yes, I think this matter is much more complicated than we thought. Zhao Yu insisted.

Complicated? Do you have evidence? asked the deputy director.

There are some observations and clues, but no definitive evidence yet. But my intuition tells me that we should keep digging.

The deputy chief shook his head. "Zhao Yu, you know the current situation. Police resources are limited. Besides, sometimes we really can't intervene in gang conflicts."

But what if our inaction leads to bigger problems? Zhao Yu asked in return.

We can’t act on intuition, we need evidence, the deputy director said coldly.

After listening to the opinions of both parties, the director pondered for a moment.

Zhao Yu, I agree with you that we cannot allow such things to go unchecked. But you also need to understand that we need more evidence to support your theory.

“Understood, Director. I’ll get to the bottom of it as soon as possible.” Zhao Yu nodded.

"Okay, in that case, go back and prepare first, but remember, be careful," the director added.

Zhao Yu left the office. He knew that he had embarked on a road full of danger and uncertainty, but he also understood that if he didn't dig deeper, it might lead to even greater hidden dangers.

The deputy director stayed in the director's office, his expression still somewhat gloomy.

Do you think Zhao Yu will find anything? asked the director.

I don’t know, but I think it’s a big gamble. The deputy director responded.

Sometimes, a gamble is necessary. The director sighed, looking out the window at the night sky, realizing more clearly that this complex chess game was far from over.

As night fell, the lights in the director's office remained on. The deputy director stood at the window, looking through the heavy curtains at the brightly lit city outside.

"Director, I think this is a good decision. Let them kill each other first. It won't be too late to take action when their strength is weakened." The deputy director turned around and said in a calm tone.

I just hope we can avoid unnecessary sacrifices. The director sighed and stopped the operation, asking Zhao Yu and the others to stop.

Understood, Chief. I will convey your instructions.

Huo Han had just picked up his phone when a message popped up. It was from the deputy director. He glanced at it, put the phone down, and a smile curled up at the corner of his mouth.

"I see. Looks like the police have suspended their operations for now," he muttered to himself.

A moment later, his phone rang. It was a bank transfer notification. Huo Han deftly made a few adjustments and transferred a large sum of money to the deputy director.

In a remote warehouse, Tenglong was tied heavily to a chair, in front of him were Huo Han, Li Yue and several other gang leaders.

Tenglong, you should consider reconciliation. There is no way out in your current situation. Li Yue said calmly.

Reconciliation? I would rather die than surrender! Tenglong sneered.

Why are you doing this? If you continue like this, both sides will suffer. Li Yue persuaded again.

Ha, both sides lose? To me, win is win, lose is lose, there is no middle ground.

Huo Han looked at Li Yue, a hint of disappointment in his eyes. He turned to look at Teng Long, "Are you sure you don't want to reconsider?"

I've said before, I'd rather die than surrender. Tenglong gritted his teeth.

Huo Han shook his head and said, "Then you just wait to face the consequences."

He turned and walked out of the warehouse, and the leaders of other gangs followed him out, leaving Tamron sitting there alone.

The deputy director received the transfer notification and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. But he also understood that this was only a temporary calm. His intuition told him that the operations team leader, Zhao Yu, was a ticking time bomb.

He picked up the phone and dialed a number. "It's me, Deputy Director." "I need you to temporarily withdraw Zhao Yu's investigation team. The situation between the gangs is quite complicated right now, and it's not advisable to intensify the conflict."

There was a brief silence on the other end of the phone, followed by a long sigh.

Okay, Deputy Director. I understand what you mean. We'll arrange for the immediate removal of personnel.

The deputy director hung up the phone and took a deep breath, knowing that this decision might have unpredictable consequences. But he had no other choice; he had to do this.

In this complex situation, everyone is doing their best to protect their own interests, but no one knows what kind of butterfly effect this storm, which seems to be about to subside, will trigger.

Night fell, the lights in the remote warehouse dim, illuminating only a faded wooden table and a few documents. Tamron remained seated in a chair in the corner, his eyes gleaming with unwavering determination.

Get ready to go, Lian Haolong wants to see you. Huo Han walked into the warehouse, followed by Li Yue and several of his men.

Tenglong sneered. Lian Haolong? He is truly a big shot.

Several men came over and untied his ropes, then tied him up again with another new rope just in case.

A black SUV slowly drove along a winding road, finally stopping in front of a more secluded abandoned factory. The door opened, and Huo Han and Li Yue stepped out, with Teng Long following behind, dragged by two of his men.

However, when they walked into the abandoned factory, Lian Haolong did not appear.

Where is Lian Haolong? Tenglong (Qian Wanghao) asked disdainfully.

You misunderstood, he's not dead. Huo Han smiled lightly. I just let him deal with you first to see how you would react. In fact, I understand your actions better than anyone else.

Tenglong's eyes were stern. What do you mean?

It's simple. I'll give you one day. If you still refuse to change your attitude within one day, I'll have no choice but to kill you. Huo Han's voice was low, like the night wind, cold and long.

Tenglong looked at the surrounding environment, then looked at Huo Han and Li Yue, and finally spoke slowly, "A person's faith and determination cannot be changed in a day or overnight."

Huo Han smiled slightly and said, "Let's wait and see. Where will you be and what kind of person will you be in one day?"

Huo Han and Li Yue walked out of the abandoned factory and got into their cars. Li Yue sat in the driver's seat and glanced at Huo Han.

Do you think he will change?

Huo Han took a deep breath. I don’t know, but I know that life is always full of choices and changes, just like this city, which seems calm but is actually full of undercurrents.

What if he really doesn't change? Li Yue asked.

I can't do anything about it, rules are rules. I gave him a chance, but he didn't take it seriously, so he has only himself to blame.

The car drove slowly through the night. Huo Han sat in the passenger seat of the 837, tapping the door with his fingers, as if tapping the pulse of time. He knew that the next day would be crucial in determining Tenglong's fate.

Huo Han pulled out his phone, checked the time, then turned off the screen and closed his eyes deeply. He knew that no matter what happened next, this day would be a watershed in the fate of him, Tenglong, and even the entire city.

The atmosphere in Huo Han's warehouse suddenly became tense. Although no one was present, any experienced person could feel the sense of crisis that permeated the place.

Tenglong seized the opportunity and used a hard object on his body to wear down the handcuff chain, finally freeing himself after a difficult half-day. Knowing he couldn't stay any longer, he quickly fled the warehouse.

Tam Long walked through the intricate alleys, trying to avoid the crowds and bright street lights, but what he didn't know was that the entire area was already densely covered with spies from various gangs.

"The target has been found, Tenglong is now on East Street." A man in black reported in a low voice over the phone.

Huo Han on the other end of the phone was about to speak (bcae), but was interrupted by Lian Haolong.

Don't wait, just go ahead and kill him. Double the bonus! Lian Haolong ordered.

All of a sudden, those gang members who were originally on the sidelines rushed out, with greed and blood in their eyes. After all, the bonus offered by Lian Haolong was an astronomical figure.

Tenglong sensed something was wrong, but it was too late. A dark shadow suddenly pounced on him from behind, and he couldn't dodge in time. He felt a tightness in his chest, and he had been stabbed with a dagger.

He struggled desperately to escape, but more dark shadows surrounded him, and Tenglong fell down amid the flash of swords and sabers.

Two hours later, an iron box filled with ice was brought to Lian Haolong, and inside it was the dead Tenglong.

Lian Haolong stood up, used gloves to avoid direct contact, opened the box and took a look.

It's finally over." He said lightly.

Huo Han stood aside with a complicated expression. Is it really over?

Lian Haolong glanced at him. This was the rule. He chose not to cooperate, so that was the only way.

Huo Han said nothing more, but he knew deep down that this chaos might just be the beginning. After all, Tenglong was dead, but the forces behind him were not, and the gangs might not truly unite because of this collaboration.

Lian Haolong sat back in his chair and began to attend to other matters, but his eyes would occasionally fall on the iron box, as if he were pondering some deeper question.
