Hong Kong Film: Starting Undercover from the Five Tigers!

This really gave Ma Jianguo a headache. If it were just an ordinary student, he would have a hundred ways to handle it. But now that it involved higher-ups, things became complicated.

"Let them wait," Ma Jianguo said impatiently.

"Captain, there's one more thing." The young officer hesitated for a moment, "The lawyer is here too."

"What lawyer?"

"He claims to be Liu Wenhao's legal advisor."

Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Liu Wenhao's eyes. When did he get a legal advisor?

However, he soon realized that this must have been arranged by Zhao Mingxuan. Although that guy looked weak, he was indeed quite capable.

Ma Jianguo realized that things had gotten out of his control. If he continued to be tough, it could cause even bigger trouble.

"That's enough for today. But Liu Wenhao, you remember this: if anything like this happens again, I will never let you off so easily."

"I understand." Liu Wenhao nodded respectfully. "Thank you for your guidance, Captain Ma."

Stepping out of the interrogation room, Liu Wenhao saw the crowd waiting outside. There was Director Chen Gang, several parents, education officials, and a middle-aged man in a suit, presumably the "legal advisor."

"Liu Wenhao, are you alright?" Director Chen Gang asked with concern.

"It's nothing, just cooperating with the investigation," Liu Wenhao smiled. "Thank you for your concern."

The lawyer approached and said in a low voice, "My name is Zhang Wei. I was hired by Zhao Mingxuan. If you have any legal questions, please feel free to contact me."

Liu Wenhao nodded in thanks.

As Liu Wenhao stepped out of the police station, he saw a large crowd gathered at the entrance. Not only were there students from Qingshan No. 1 Middle School, but also students from other schools, and even his former rivals, Xu Hao and Sun Lei, were present.

When he came out, the crowd erupted in enthusiastic applause and cheers.

"Brother Wenhao!" Li Hao ran over. "Are you alright?"

Chapter 1186 Situation!

"What could possibly happen?" Liu Wenhao patted him on the shoulder. "But this incident has served as a warning to us."

"What warning?"

“Our actions have already attracted the attention of the adult world.” Liu Wenhao looked around at the crowd. “From now on, we must be more careful and smarter.”

Xu Hao walked over: "Liu Wenhao, I'm sorry about what happened today. If it weren't for my report..."

"You reported it?" Liu Wenhao asked, somewhat surprised.

“It wasn’t me,” Xu Hao shook his head. “It was Ma Qiang’s father. But if we hadn’t made such a big scene today, we wouldn’t have given him an excuse.”

Liu Wenhao was silent for a moment, then said, "Let bygones be bygones. The important thing is what to do in the future."

"What about later?" Sun Lei walked over as well. "To be honest, after what happened today, I think we should all reflect on this."

"Reflect on what?"

“We need to reflect on whether what we did was right or wrong,” Sun Lei said. “We are all still students, and the most important thing should be studying, not this fighting and killing.”

His words plunged many in the room into deep thought. Indeed, today's events made them realize the enormous gap between their so-called "江湖" (jianghu, a term referring to the world of martial arts and chivalry) and the real adult world.

“You’re right.” Liu Wenhao nodded. “So starting tomorrow, I hereby announce that the student forces in Qingshan City are officially disbanded. Everyone should return to their respective schools and study hard.”

This decision surprised everyone.

"Why?" someone asked.

“Because we’re all still kids.” Liu Wenhao smiled bitterly. “What happened today made me realize that in the face of real power, we so-called student leaders are nothing.”

His words, though tinged with frustration, were true. Ma Jianguo had almost locked him up with just one phone call. This kind of disparity couldn't be bridged by fists.

"And what about you?" Li Hao asked, "Will you continue to stay at Qingshan No.1 High School?"

"Of course," Liu Wenhao smiled. "I will do my best as the student council president and strive to improve the school's learning atmosphere and campus environment. As for the rest, let's leave it at that."

Hearing his words, many people breathed a sigh of relief. Although there was some reluctance, everyone knew that this was probably the best ending.

On the way back to school, Zhao Mingxuan asked Liu Wenhao, "Are you really planning to retire from crime?"

"It's not about retiring from the game, it's about growth," Liu Wenhao corrected. "What happened today taught me a lot. True strength isn't proven by fists, but by wisdom and power."

"Then what are you going to do next?"

Looking at the distant night sky, Liu Wenhao's eyes sparkled with a new light: "Study hard, get into a good university. Then, on a bigger stage, become a true powerhouse."

Although Liu Wenhao announced the disbandment of the student group, the matter did not end there.

The next morning, an uninvited guest arrived at Qingshan No.1 Middle School.

"Excuse me, is Liu Wenhao here? This is Mr. Li from the Municipal Education Bureau."

Director Chen Gang personally received this Mr. Li, feeling somewhat uneasy. Yesterday's events had clearly alarmed higher-level departments.

"Lord Li, is there anything I can help you with?"

"It's like this, regarding yesterday's student gathering incident, we need to understand some details." Lord Li took out a folder, "especially regarding Liu Wenhao's appointment as student council president."

Chapter 1187: The Exercise!

Chen Gang's heart tightened. The formal procedures for becoming the student council president hadn't been completed yet, and Liu Wenhao's words yesterday seemed somewhat like a hasty decision.

"Lord Li, Liu Wenhao is indeed the head of our school's student council, but the official appointment letter is still being prepared."

"Preparing?" Lord Li adjusted his glasses. "Then may I ask, what procedure did he go through to become the student council leader? Was it an election or an appointment?"

Chen Gang was somewhat embarrassed by the question. To be honest, Liu Wenhao became the de facto head of the student union entirely because of his personal ability and influence, without going through any formal procedures.

"This..." Chen Gang hesitated for a moment before Liu Wenhao walked in.

"Hello, Lord Li, I am Liu Wenhao."

Lord Li looked the seemingly ordinary high school student up and down, somewhat surprised. The person who caused such a commotion yesterday actually seemed so calm.

"Liu Wenhao, I'd like to know, how did you become the president of the student council at Qingshan No.1 Middle School?"

"Through student democratic elections," Liu Wenhao answered frankly. "After I transferred to Qingshan No.1 Middle School, I found that the school's student council work was somewhat lax, so I took the initiative to participate and received the support of my classmates."

Are there election records?

“Yes.” Liu Wenhao turned to Chen Gang. “Director Chen, could you please show the election records to Lord Li?”

Chen Gang was taken aback. What election records? But he quickly understood what Liu Wenhao meant and nodded, saying, "Okay, I'll go get them right away."

While Chen Gang was away, Lord Li continued to ask, "Liu Wenhao, as far as I know, you've only been at Qingshan No. 1 Middle School for a little over two months. It's truly remarkable that you've gained the support of your classmates in such a short time."

"I was mainly lucky," Liu Wenhao said modestly. "In addition, I did do some things within my ability for the school."

"For example?"

"For example, improving the campus security environment, reducing campus violence, and increasing students' enthusiasm for learning," Liu Wenhao said, listing the achievements with great familiarity. "These are all supported by specific data."

Lord Li took notes of his words, gaining a new understanding of this student. To maintain such a clear mind under these circumstances was certainly not that of an ordinary high school student.

Chen Gang returned quickly, holding a freshly printed document.

"Sir Li, these are the relevant records of the election for the president of our school's student union."

Lord Li took the document and examined it carefully. Although the record was clearly prepared on the spot, it was formatted correctly, the procedure was complete, and there was nothing wrong with it.

"Okay, I've reviewed the documents." Li closed the folder. "Liu Wenhao, regarding yesterday's events, I need to remind you that as the student council president, you have a responsibility to maintain good campus order and cannot organize similar activities again."

“I understand.” Liu Wenhao nodded sincerely. “What happened yesterday really taught me a lesson. As a student, I should focus my energy on my studies.”

"Very good." Lord Li stood up. "I hope you can keep your word. In addition, the school should strengthen its supervision of student activities to prevent similar incidents from happening again."

After seeing Lord Li off, Chen Gang breathed a sigh of relief.

“I almost gave myself away just now,” he said to Liu Wenhao. “How did you know I would play along with your act?”

"Because we're all in the same boat," Liu Wenhao laughed. "If something happens to me, it won't be good for the school's reputation either."

Chapter 1188 Fees!

Chen Gang nodded, agreeing. Liu Wenhao had now become a symbolic figure at Qingshan No. 1 Middle School, and his every move affected the school's image.

"But then again," Chen Gang said with some curiosity, "are you really planning to behave yourself from now on?"

Liu Wenhao was silent for a moment, then said, "On the surface, yes. But some things are not things I can avoid just because I want to."

Sure enough, his words were soon proven true.

During lunch, Li Hao rushed over to report: "Brother Wenhao, something's happened!"

"What's up?".

"Wang Lei is cornered in the alley!"

Liu Wenhao frowned: "Who is it?"

“They’re not students, they’re thugs from the streets,” Li Hao said breathlessly. “I heard they were hired to teach Wang Lei a lesson.”

Liu Wenhao immediately realized that someone was pulling the strings behind the scenes. Although the student group had officially disbanded, some people were still unwilling to accept it and wanted to take revenge in other ways.

Where is Wang Lei now?

"At the city hospital," Li Hao said. "The injuries are quite serious; I heard he broke several ribs."

Liu Wenhao stood up: "Let's go take a look."

"Wait a minute," Zhao Mingxuan stopped him, "You're in the eye of the storm right now, wouldn't it be inappropriate for you to go to the hospital?"

“It would be even more inappropriate not to go,” Liu Wenhao said. “Wang Lei was injured because of me, and I can’t just ignore it.”

In a ward at the city hospital, Wang Lei lay on the bed, his face pale. He managed a weak smile when Liu Wenhao entered.

"Brother, I'm sorry to have worried you."

"What exactly happened?" Liu Wenhao sat on the edge of the bed. "Who is this person?"

“There were three of them, and they looked like they were involved in organized crime,” Wang Lei said with difficulty. “They said someone paid them to teach me a lesson, but they wouldn’t say who it was.”

"Any characteristics?"

“The leader had a dragon head tattoo on his arm, and another one had a scar on his face,” Wang Lei recalled. “They didn’t seem to be locals.”

Liu Wenhao and Li Hao exchanged a glance, both realizing the seriousness of the situation. It seemed that the person behind this not only had money but also connections, enabling them to hire thugs from out of town.

"You focus on recovering, I'll handle everything else." Liu Wenhao patted Wang Lei's hand. "Don't worry about medical expenses."

"Brother, maybe we should just call it quits," Wang Lei said worriedly. "The other side is clearly someone with considerable influence, and you're going through a sensitive period right now..."

“Precisely because it is a sensitive period, we cannot show weakness.” Liu Wenhao’s tone was firm. “If I back down this time, more trouble will come knocking on my door in the future.”

After leaving the hospital, Liu Wenhao did not go straight back to school, but instead went to the abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city.

Scarface was waiting for him inside.

"I heard your men got taught a lesson?" Scarface said with a sneer. "Looks like your intimidation power isn't as great as I thought."

"Enough with the nonsense." Liu Wenhao cut to the chase. "I need you to investigate someone for me."

"who?"

Liu Wenhao recounted the characteristics of the people Wang Lei had described.

Scarface's expression turned serious after hearing this: "The one with the dragon head tattoo on his arm, if I'm not mistaken, should be Mad Dragon from the South City."

"Mad Dragon?"

“A very famous underground boxer who later became a thug,” Scarface said. “This guy charges a lot; most people can’t afford him.”

Chapter 1189 Trouble!

"That means the person behind this is indeed someone with considerable influence."

“That’s right.” Scarface nodded. “Besides, someone like Mad Dragon usually doesn’t get involved in disputes between students. The fact that he’s involved means the other party is offering a lot of money, or they have other bargaining chips.”

Liu Wenhao pondered. If what Scarface said was true, then the person behind it was likely not a student, but an adult.

"Can you contact this Mad Dragon?"

“You can give it a try,” Scarface said, “but he might not be willing to see you.”
