A passing traveler through the heavens

Back at the police station, Ji Lin's previously calm mind instantly became active, and he prepared to start building his own team.

Huan'er was sent away by Ji Lin without hesitation to go and do counterfeit business with Jimmy.

When Ji Lin received the personnel list of the entire Yau Ma Tei Police Station, a hint of surprise and certainty flashed in his eyes as he quickly scanned the densely packed names.

Soon, his gaze settled on a few names: patrol officer Song Zijie, patrol officer Chen Jiaju, and plainclothes officer Li Ying.

Looking at Song Zijie's name, Ji Lin nodded slightly, already having a plan in mind. He felt that Song Zijie had a very good sense of justice, making him very suitable for handling some tedious paperwork, and he could also use him to complete the plot of "A Better Tomorrow".

The name Chen Jiaju brought a flash of admiration to Ji Lin's eyes.

After all, this guy is known as the God of War of the Furniture City. He can be sent to charge into battle in the future. As for Li Ying, because he doesn't know how to please his superiors and has no one to support him, he has always been in a plainclothes position and seems to be somewhat unknown.

However, Ji Lin was well aware of his value. Li Ying had extensive knowledge of people from all walks of life, which was undoubtedly a valuable asset that could play a significant role in solving cases and obtaining intelligence.

Ji Lin then immediately sent someone to notify these people to report to the Yau Ma Tei Police Station.

After all, Ji Lin was like a rising red star in front of Lei Luo at this moment. Almost everyone knew his current status, so no one wanted to offend him easily and was happy to give him face.

Before long, the three of them rushed to Ji Lin's office.

Immediately afterwards, the scene became tense, and Ji Lin went straight to the point and asked them if they were willing to follow him.

Ji Lin's lips curled up slightly, a confident glint in his eyes. He calmly said, "As long as you are willing to follow me, you can all be promoted to detective in the future, and even inspector is not out of the question."

Among them, Li Ying, the older figure, was well aware of Ji Lin's current status and had become quite shrewd over the years. Seeing that someone was willing to promote him, he immediately expressed his willingness to follow Ji Lin wholeheartedly.

As for Song Zijie, having witnessed Ji Lin's decisive and resolute performance when facing the Big Circle Boys, he was filled with admiration for Ji Lin and quickly expressed his willingness to follow him.

However, Chan Ka-kui was different. He said with a serious expression that if he were to follow him, then first of all, one must have enough strength to defeat him.

Chen Jiaju had long heard of Ji Lin's formidable reputation for conquering Kowloon Walled City, but he always felt that there might be a lot of exaggeration involved.

Then, he solemnly proposed to spar with Ji Lin. At this moment, Ji Lin was sitting leisurely in his comfortable office chair, with a faint smile on his face, as if everything was under his control.

After Ji Lin indicated that he could, Chen Jiaju's eyes lit up, and he charged over, brandishing his powerful fists with truly astonishing momentum.

Seeing an opportunity, Ji Lin spotted an opening and kicked Chen Jiaju to his knees. This was only because Ji Lin held back a bit of his strength; otherwise, Chen Jiaju would have been sent flying.

At this point, all three had been brought under Ji Lin's command.

Just as Ji Lin was overjoyed, a knock on the door was followed by a shout: "Brother Lin, Detective Wang wants you to come to his office. He says he has something extremely important to discuss with you."

Upon hearing this, Ji Lin was somewhat puzzled, but he immediately put down what he was doing, solemnly instructed the three people beside him to wait patiently for a moment, and then walked towards Detective Wang's office.

After he entered Detective Wang's office and learned about the details, he discovered that a shocking murder had suddenly occurred within the jurisdiction of the Yau Ma Tei Police Station.

The occurrence of such cases was like a bombshell, instantly causing a huge uproar throughout the entire police force, even enraging the usually arrogant foreign high-ranking officers.

It turns out that a real estate tycoon named Wang Dongyuan was assassinated without warning during the grand opening ceremony of his company, which he had been preparing for for a long time. The assassin's skill was evident in the single shot.

Subsequently, upon hearing this devastating news, many wealthy individuals expressed strong dissatisfaction and complaints to the police leadership, revealing their concerns and doubts about the security situation on Hong Kong Island. They claimed that Hong Kong Island had become unsafe, with various destabilizing factors spreading everywhere.

After receiving this pressure from all sides, the police leadership was furious and immediately lashed out at the Yau Ma Tei Police Station, ordering them to solve the case within a limited time. It seemed that they had placed all their hopes on the officers of the Yau Ma Tei Police Station, hoping that they could quickly find the real culprit and quell the storm.

Ji Lin sat quietly at the large desk, gently tapping his hands on the surface with a slight force, producing a dull sound. He frowned, trying hard to recall any memories related to a character from a Hong Kong variety show named Wang Dongyuan.

Ji Lin quickly remembered that this was the plot of the movie "The Killer", which is also a very classic Hong Kong film.

Ji Lin confidently assured Detective Wang that he would solve the case within three days, and then went into his office to begin strategizing.

Song Zijie went to find a church in a relatively remote place that was still under renovation, while Li Ying returned to the scene of the shooting to investigate clues about the killer.

Ji Lin and Chen Jiaju then entered Wang Dongyuan's real estate company together.

Wang Dongyuan's nephew, Wang Hai, was in his office, smugly directing his subordinates to systematically take over the vast assets left by Wang Dongyuan, a glint of cunning in his eyes.

Upon hearing his subordinates report that the police had arrived to investigate, Wang Hai's previously cheerful expression instantly froze, replaced by displeasure and impatience.

He frowned deeply, cursing these uninvited guests in his heart.

He then strode angrily toward the reception room, his heart filled with resentment at the police for interfering with his receipt of the inheritance.

Ji Lin sat on the sofa in the reception room, leisurely holding a cup of coffee, but his eyes were always fixed on the door. Not long after, he saw Wang Hai walk into the reception room cursing. He sneered inwardly.

“Mr. Wang Hai, we are from the Yau Ma Tei Police Station, here to investigate your uncle’s shooting case,” Ji Lin’s voice revealed an undeniable authority.

Upon hearing this, Wang Hai flew into a rage, shouting, "Damn you! Why aren't you looking for the murderer? What are you doing here?" His words were full of anger and provocation, as if he wanted to vent all his resentment on the policeman in front of him.

Ji Lin narrowed his eyes slightly, watching Wang Hai discreetly, already having made his plans. He secretly placed a number key on Wang Hai's body.

After an unpleasant conversation, Ji Lin and Chen Jiaju stood up and silently left the real estate company. Ji Lin asked Chen Jiaju to keep an eye on Wang Hai's every move at the real estate company, while he returned to the Yau Ma Tei Police Station.

Upon returning to the Yau Ma Tei Police Station, Ji Lin saw Song Zijie rushing back.

Upon seeing Ji Lin, Song Zijie rushed over and handed the documents in his hand to Ji Lin.

After receiving the document, Ji Lin stared intently at the slightly blurry yet highly recognizable photograph of the priest within it. In just an instant, Ji Lin knew that Song Zijie had come to the right place.

That church was a place frequently visited by the assassin Xiao Zhuang and his agent. The priest in the photo was none other than Xiao Zhuang's agent, Fourth Brother.

Ji Lin carefully examined the materials, and after a moment he made a decisive decision. He gently and carefully removed the photos of the priest's family.

Then, he turned to Song Zijie and said, "Zijie, go to the real estate company right now to help Chen Jiaju. There might be a new situation on his end that requires our support."

Ji Lin, on the other hand, was preparing to go to that church to meet the so-called "priest".
