A passing traveler through the heavens

Chapter 27 Promotion to Yau Ma Tei Detective

After returning from the mountaintop, Ji Lin handed over the crucial recording to the police station without hesitation.

When the recording was presented to the police station, the entire station fell into a brief silence. They had thought that with the deaths of both uncles and nephews of the Wang family, the case would become a cold case.

But unexpectedly, Wang Hai turned out to be the murderer. Then, the long-suppressed excitement and joy erupted like a volcano. The foreign executives were all beaming with joy, as if they could see huge sums of money coming in.

They immediately decided to give Ji Lin the promotion he deserved and appoint him to the important position of Yau Ma Tei Detective Chief!

It should be noted that Ji Lin had only been in the plainclothes police position for a few days, yet he had already demonstrated extraordinary abilities.

Initially, he became an undercover officer simply because he was Lei Luo's savior, and then he successfully stopped a thrilling robbery.

Just two days later, he quickly solved another heinous case of hiring a hitman.

Well, this has made Ji Lin a rising star in the police force. In addition to his already renowned reputation as the "Killer of Kowloon Walled City," he now has the added honor of being the "Nemesis of Crime."

However, although it has been decided to appoint Ji Lin as the detective chief, in this day and age, being a detective still requires spending money on the foreign high-ups; otherwise, a verbal promise is just empty talk.

Although the official appointment order cannot be issued yet, this has in no way affected Ji Lin's authority at the Yau Ma Tei Police Station.

Through his skillful maneuvering, the entire Yau Ma Tei Police Station seemed to have become his stage. Apart from the foreign police chief who only cared about how much money he had, Ji Lin was basically the one who made all the decisions.

After about a week, Ji Lin's meticulously prepared Zhutian Company finally ushered in its grand opening.

Correspondingly, the counterfeit goods business was fully launched, and in just one week, it earned a huge profit of up to ten million.

Under the influence of Lei Luo's name, no triad member on Hong Kong Island dared to reach for this huge pie.

The next step is to expand the company's production lines to meet the growing demand for orders. If the production lines can be increased further, perhaps with the vast market of Hong Kong Island and the company's unique advantages, the earnings could be far more than just ten million.

But reality is always somewhat unfortunate. Hong Kong Island has limited space, and you can only earn this much in a week. However, at least you have successfully earned back the initial investment, which is a good start.

Ji Lin knew that this was only the first step in the rise of his business empire, and there was still a long way to go.

He secretly planned that once he successfully became a detective, he would definitely have a good talk with the leading figures of various gangs. With his influence and connections in the police force, he would persuade them to sell their goods all over the world, open up a wider market, and let his wealth snowball.

Then Ji Lin drove his luxury car, the trunk of which was full of heavy banknotes, and sped towards the Kowloon Police Station.

The car came to a smooth stop in front of the police station. Ji Lin strode up to the second floor. As soon as he stepped into the office, he saw Lei Luo sitting there leisurely, a cigar with a faint tobacco smell lingering in his mouth.

The two looked at each other for a moment, and Lei Luo smiled warmly and quickly invited Ji Lin to sit down.

Ji Lin has always been straightforward and dislikes beating around the bush. Without further ado, he took out 500,000 yuan in cash from the box and solemnly handed it to Lei Luo.

He said solemnly, "The 300,000 is for the purpose of buying the position of detective, and the other 200,000 is a reward for your hard work, Brother Luo. Thank you for your help."

He took the banknotes, nodded slightly, and saw a word synonymous with "ambition" in Ji Lin's eyes. However, Lei Luo was confident in himself and felt that he could suppress a capable and ambitious person like Ji Lin.

Ji Lin, a subordinate highly regarded by Lei Luo, has recently solved two earth-shattering cases. His heroic deeds are like a dazzling light, making Lei Luo feel much more respected in front of those arrogant foreigners, as if his own authority has suddenly increased.

Lei Luo agreed without hesitation, and with a wave of his hand, he reassured Ji Lin to go home and wait for good news.

As for Ji Lin, he had just stepped into the Yau Ma Tei Police Station when the detective's appointment letter was delivered in a flash. It has to be said that Lei Luo's efficiency is really high.

It was exactly in the afternoon when Ji Lin officially took office, becoming the prominent detective chief of Yau Ma Tei.

Although Detective Wang was still in the police station, he naturally left when he reached retirement age, fading out of this ever-changing stage.

Holding the weighty letter of appointment, Ji Lin's face beamed with barely suppressed joy. With a wave of his hand, he declared with boundless enthusiasm, "Tonight at the 'Honest and Resolute' Restaurant, it's on me!"

These words, spoken with overwhelming force, fully displayed his newfound power and prestige.

At the same time, he did not forget two important people around him, Piggy and Lei Luo, and quickly sent them a sincere invitation, hoping that they could come to the promotion banquet together.

However, the two were usually too busy to come, so they simply had their subordinates prepare some exquisite gifts to send as a token of their appreciation.

Seeing this, Ji Lin was not angry. Then, with a wave of his hand, he promoted Chen Jiaju and Song Zijie, making them his undercover agents.

Li Ying was still an undercover officer, but Ji Lin's promotion gave him hope. He thought that with a boss like Ji Lin, promotion would be a piece of cake!

The next morning, Ji Lin woke up from his hangover. He glanced at Gang Sheng, who was still fast asleep, and tiptoed to the living room to pour himself a glass of water.

He was surprised to find the living room table covered with glittering gold jewelry, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, this could be a gold shop!"

Some of this gold was given by Lei Luo and Piggy, while others were gifts from Lei Luo's detectives and various triads!

Ji Lin beamed with joy and quickly stored all these treasures into his system space.

After dinner, Ji Lin went to the police station. Once in his office, he immediately sent someone to invite the various bosses from Yau Ma Tei to a meeting.

Soon after, Huan'er brought Jimmy to the Yau Ma Tei Police Station.

Standing there, Ji Lin already exuded the aura of a superior. He began to explain his meticulously managed counterfeit goods business to the various bosses.

He detailed the advantages of the source of goods, the affordability of the price, and the extensive sales channels, and generously stated that all the bosses could come to him to purchase goods at extremely low prices and then sell them on the market to earn substantial profits.

With Lei Luo backing them up, the usually arrogant and domineering members of various gangs became extremely cautious and dared not act recklessly in the slightest.

After receiving unanimous assurances from all the club leaders, Ji Lin left the meeting room in high spirits. Next, Huan'er and the others discussed the specific details of the cooperation with the club members.

Ji Lin hadn't been in his office for long when there was a knock on his door. A woman then walked in.

At the same time, the system's voice rang out: "Ding, a beauty has been discovered, name Rose, score 90, number of visits 0, favorability 70."

Ji Lin immediately remembered who this was. Wasn't this Rose, who had an affair with Chen Xijiu in the Money Empire and became one of the four main characters?

The so-called "Four Big Names" refers to four big shots who gained popularity in Hong Kong Island, spearheaded by Lei Luo, symbolizing a four-way division of the world. The four people are Crippled Ho, Ni Kun, Chaozhou Congee, and Flower Boy Wing.

Hua Zai Rong was originally Fat Boy Chao's subordinate, but after the Kowloon Walled City incident, Fat Boy Chao was sent to prison by Lui Lok for breaking Ng Sai Ho's leg. Hua Zai Rong then took Fat Boy Chao's place and became one of the four big names.

However, to Ji Lin's surprise, Rose, despite being a powerful figure, was still a virgin.

Rose brought a small gift this time. Firstly, to celebrate becoming the Yau Ma Tei Detective Inspector; secondly, to ask for his help in becoming one of the four most famous celebrities in Hong Kong.

Although Rose's rating was quite good, Ji Lin was sworn to be against gambling and drugs, so he decisively rejected Rose.

However, Rose still left the gift behind when she left…
