"I'm just a bodyguard now, and I don't care what the result is. What Inspector Zhou just said, I will also say it to Mr. Ke word for word. ”

Zhou Sheng frowned:

"Anyway, that's your business! If I put it here, the townspeople will meddle in the side business of Boundary Street, you don't have to think about it if you let Ke Wanchang think about it, it's impossible! ”

"Excuse me."

Long Chenghu's face was very calm, just like his own character that was not good at words, and he didn't say more.

When he turned around, he glanced at Li An again, and there was some excitement in his eyes. But in the end, he walked to the table not far from Cordelia and sat down, looking at her quietly.

"Troublesome?" Li An suddenly spoke.

"Isn't it just a fellow villagers' association, what trouble can there be?"

Zhou Sheng's brows stretched, with a smile on his face: "Besides, when have you ever heard that the inspector will be afraid of a few rotten boys?" ”

Although Zhou Sheng said it lightly, Li An could clearly feel that Zhou Sheng's previous expression was not as relaxed as his current tone.

However, Li An didn't say anything, just echoed in his mouth:

Oh, too, a small community that can be pressed in plainclothes can't raise its head. Detective, don't you dare to give him a few dares. ”

"That's it." Zhou Sheng shrugged his shoulders with a relaxed expression.

Ang Lee smiled and took the initiative to change the topic:

"Brother Sheng, then again, I've been here for so long, the banquet is over, and you haven't introduced me to your childhood sweetheart?"

When Zhou Sheng heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and at the same time, he blushed a little.

Li An saw Zhou Sheng's expression in his eyes, and couldn't help but laugh and quipped:

"Isn't it, you're a big man and blushing and shy?"

"Talking nonsense."

Zhou Sheng scolded with a smile, pulled Li An's arm, and said:

"Come with me and take you to get to know me."

Chen Qichang sat at the table and drank tea leisurely, Chen Xinyi, who sat opposite him, and Cordelia next to him whispered.

"This is Uncle Chang."

Zhou Sheng took Li An to Chen Qichang first.

The man with gray temples stretched out his right hand towards Li An,

"Chen Qichang."

"Uncle Chang." Ang Lee shook Chen Qichang's hand.

"You are Ah Sheng's junior brother, that is your own family, don't be too polite." Chen Qichang has obvious crow's feet at the corners of his eyes, and he smiles heartily.

"It should." The other party is Zhou Sheng's uncle, so Ang Lee's attitude is very low, and he looks humble and polite.

"Not bad."

Chen Qichang smiled at Li An.

Then he stood up and said to Zhou Sheng: "I'm here, and you juniors can't let go." I'm also a little tired after a busy night, so I'll go first, and you guys can talk a little longer. ”

"Uncle, I'll send you." Zhou Sheng reached out and grabbed the other party's arm.

"I'm old, and it's not that I can't walk, so I don't need you to send it."

Chen Qichang waved his hand and refused, and left slowly alone.

Chen Xinyi glanced at Zhou Sheng: "My dad doesn't let you send it, but lets you accompany the guests." You're not going to ask your guys to help deliver it? ”

Zhou Sheng scratched his head a little embarrassed, and smiled gently.

He turned his head and shouted at the plainclothes who was sitting around the table pushing pai gow not far away: "Li Dong, go and send Uncle off." ”

"Got it, Brother Sheng."

Li Dong responded and pushed the pai gow in front of him.

"I'll go about my business now, and when I get back, I'll kill you to the ground."

……

"This is Chan Xinyi, who is now working at Andriy Law Firm in Tsim Sha Tsui, as a trainee barrister."

"Sister Xinyi."

Li An nodded.

Chen Xin smiled brightly:

"You're welcome, listen to Ah Sheng, you are a businessman now, if you need help with any sales agreements or contracts in the future, just come to me."

As she spoke, she pulled Cordelia beside her and introduced to Ang Lee:

"This is my good friend, Cordley."

"Kowan's daughter?"

Li Ang looked at the woman opposite.

Cordelia wears a red dress and looks sweet. She looked at Ang Lee in surprise.

"You know my dad?"

"It's kind of an acquaintance."

Ang Lee muttered.

Zhou Sheng, who was standing next to him, raised his eyebrows.

Several people chatted for a while, seeing that the time was not early, and Li An did not linger too much, he took the lead in proposing to leave, he said hello to Zhou Sheng, and left the restaurant.

A person stood at the door of the restaurant and hesitated for a while, then looked back at the second floor of the restaurant.

"Looks like it's time for me to go to the walled city."

Li Anxin groaned.

There are many masters in the walled city, but the most masters are undoubtedly the townspeople's association.

There are three giants inside, a brothel, a gambling house, and a tobacco house, and there is an ultimate boss behind them who controls the killer organization. The main thing is that a hero has no tears and a hero is ruthless!

The kung fu of several people is also different, grappling, wrestling, tai chi, divine fighting, and iron cloth shirts

Needless to say, in order to improve his hand-to-hand fighting ability, grappling and wrestling must be mastered. But if you want to make Ang Lee's eyes hot, it is inevitable to get it than the iron cloth shirt that can be called a bug.

Originally, Li An's plan was to at least wait for the dock to stabilize in an orderly manner, and then arrange the filing and go to the walled city by himself. But tonight's conversation between Long Chenghu and Zhou Sheng made him decide to go to the walled city in advance.

At that time, Zhou Sheng said it easily, but Li An understood that Zhou Sheng was still quite jealous of the fellow villagers' association.

Also, the other party even dares to kill ghosts, so why be afraid of him as a detective. It is difficult for Ang Lee to guarantee that the other party will not do anything to implicate Zhou Sheng's relatives in order to force Zhou Sheng to comply.

It is better to expect these people to have a bottom line than to believe that the sow will go up the tree.

Ang Lee has always believed that if there is a problem, then solve the problem. If it's not easy to solve, then solve the person who created the problem.

Preemptive!

This is Ang Lee's consistent principle!

Since the fellow townsmen association is a trouble, then when planning the iron cloth shirt, just solve this trouble.

"Ang Lee."

A somewhat tired voice suddenly came, interrupting Ang Lee's thoughts.

Li An followed the voice to look, and Hua Man, who was carrying a handbag, came out of the darkness and looked at him.

"You've been waiting for me outside?"

"Well, I'd like to talk to you." Hua Man said softly.

Li An thought for a while, nodded and agreed:

"Yes."

To Ang Lee's surprise, Hua Man did not take him to a quiet place, but walked along Boundary Street for a while and turned into an alley.

Compared to the crowds outside, the alleys are deserted, and there are not even two pedestrians.

Hua Man took Ang Lee to a noodle stall, the owner of which was an old man who looked to be in his sixties and had a face full of vicissitudes.

Seeing Hua Man coming, the old man had a smile on his face.

"Miss Hua Man, is it still bean sprout soup?"

"Well, two bowls."

Hua Man nodded slightly.

"Bean sprout soup is sobering."

"That's right, I drank a little too much tonight."

In front of a small yellow wooden square table, the two sat opposite each other.

"If it's really just a small favor, it's easy for me. Have you ever wondered if I could possibly say yes to you even though we haven't slept with us? ”

The words that Li An said that night seemed to be still echoing in his ears, and Hua Man's eyes were lowered.

"I'm sorry about that night."

Li An frowned.

That is, Ang Lee understands Hua Man's past and knows that the other party's nature is not bad, but he is wary of anyone because of his tragic experience since childhood.

But then again, understanding is understanding, and it is unrealistic to make Ang Lee have nothing to do with what happened that night.

After all, anyone who is calculated for no reason can't act as if nothing happened.

Even though it was I who took advantage of it that night.

After a while, Li Ancai sighed:

"If you're specifically sorry, then you don't need to, thanks to your help in betting these days, we'll settle the matter."

But Hua Man looked at Li An's calm expression, but he was silent.

When the soup came, Ang Lee got up to pick it up.

"Is there anything else? If not, I'll leave after drinking the sprout soup. ”

Li An put the soup in front of Hua Man, said in a flat tone, and then picked up his bowl.

After drinking three or two sips, just as he was about to get up and leave, the silent Hua Man finally spoke:

"I'd like to ask you to check one thing for me."

After hesitating for a moment, she took out a brown paper bag from her handbag and put it in front of Li An.

"It's fifty thousand dollars. It's kind of a reward. If you're not satisfied, the conditions for that night still count. ”

In the end, her voice was much quieter.

Li An frowned:

"That's what you're doing that night?"

The woman took a deep breath and forced a smile: "Yes." ”

Li An thought for a while and raised his eyes to look at her: "You say it first, I don't promise that I will agree?" ”

Hua Man spoke slowly, his tone trembling a little:

"Fifteen years ago, there was a man named Chao Mengshan in the Kowloon Walled City who was framed for murder, and he had no choice but to surrender to the Kowloon District Mission, hoping that the police station could help find out the truth. But he didn't want to be plotted in the detention room and escaped from the police station. I want to know the identities of the three people who were locked up with Chaomeng Mountain at the beginning. ”

Li Anxin understood: "For revenge? ”

"Yes!"

To Ang Lee's surprise, Hua Man actually admitted it directly.

Ang Lee was a little stunned.

He calmed down, "You don't have to look for me for this matter, 50,000 yuan, such a large sum of money, I don't think those who are on an errand will refuse." Even if it's soft, with your skills, you can force two bad guys who use trolls as burning sticks. ”

Last time, Ang Lee was able to easily subdue Hua Man, which does not mean that Hua Man's skills are poor. Even compared to the Big Three of the Townsfolk Association, Hua Man has to win, it can only be said that Hua Man was too annoyed and angry at that time.

Hua Man shook his head: "It's not that I haven't investigated, but fifteen years is too long, and the police officer who guarded the detention room at the beginning doesn't know how much stubble has changed." If you make a big move, you will startle the snake. Zhou Sheng is your senior brother, he opened his mouth, and the matter could be easily investigated. ”

Li An didn't immediately agree, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, as if he was thinking.

Hua Man looked at him in a daze.

After a long while, Ang Lee stood up and took the money.

I promised you. I'll call Zhou Sheng tomorrow morning, and you can go to the mission hall to find him in the afternoon." ”

"Ang Lee."

Li An had just taken two steps, and Hua Man behind him suddenly stopped him.

If I live, that condition will always be valid."

Li An didn't speak, his figure paused, and then left without looking back.

Walking out of the alley and looking at the crowded streets, Ang Lee sighed.

It is difficult to cross the mountain, who is sad and lost! Ill-fated, who can understand, who will sympathize?

promised Hua Man, Li Ang didn't know what he was thinking.

Maybe it's a little more sympathetic?

The next day, as soon as the sky was bright, Ang Lee came to the newspaper early.

"Brother An, you're here."

Ah Xin was checking the manifest and saw Li An coming over, and quickly stood up.

"Hmm."

Li An nodded, took a copy of the Times casually, spread it out and looked at it twice, and asked casually:

"Three newspapers opened on Linsey Street yesterday, how is the business?"

"Thanks to Brother An's vision, the stall location was well chosen. Although it can't catch up with the business of the north-south line, it is not much different from a few newspapers on the dock. ”

"Less sycophants!"

Ang Lee laughed and scolded. And with a solemn face, he said:

"You say that I have chosen a good position for the stall, so let me ask you, what are the advantages of these positions? The time you helped me take care of the file is not too short, if you are careful, you should be able to see something.

Think about it and don't rush to answer. ”

Ah Xin frowned and thought for a while, then observed Li An's face and said:

"Except for the three newspapers at the pier, whether it is the newspaper on the northbound or Rumsey Street, these newspapers are all at a T-shaped or cross-shaped intersection."

"Go on."

It is at the center point of vertical and horizontal crossing, in addition to the large flow of people, it is conspicuous. Whether it is pedestrians on the left and right, or pedestrians coming from below, you can see the roadside newspaper at the first time. ”

"Not bad."

Li An nodded in satisfaction.

was affirmed, and Ah Xin's face also revealed a trace of excitement.

"From tomorrow onwards, I will rarely come to the dock for a period of time, and I will leave all the registration matters to you. You don't just stare at these few newspapers, you have to learn to let go and hand them over to the guys below, if there are not enough people, then find Wu Shihao.

I have only one request, I can't give you a few reports, and you can give me a few. What you just said about the location of the stall is the first thing, then rest assured to do it boldly, and after the location is chosen, you will go to the errand hall to find He Yi to help apply for a license. ”

After a pause, Ang Lee continued:

"As for the money, you don't have to worry about it, the income from the newspaper file these days is enough. Do you have any questions? ”

Ah Xin just hesitated slightly, gritted his teeth and agreed:

"No problem!"

Ang Lee put down the newspaper and patted Ah Xin on the shoulder:

"That's right. People are forced out by themselves, and the opportunity is given to you, how do you know if you can do it if you don't do it? ”

Since it was decided to go to the walled city to plan the iron cloth shirt and solve the problem of the fellow townsman association by the way, it is definitely not something that can be solved in three or two days, and some things will naturally have to be explained clearly in advance.

Ang Lee is confident, relying on his skills alone, none of the fellow townsmen Feng Chunmei and others are his opponents. Even Yang Zhuluan, who has an iron cloth shirt, can retreat with his whole body even if he can't break through his defenses.

But he didn't think about rushing into the walled city alone like this, that is not called self-confidence, that is called arrogance.

Plan before you act!

Ang Lee doesn't like to do things that he is not sure of, so he naturally has to make some preparations in advance before entering the walled city.

"Didn't I buy three short dogs last time, why do you want so much. And there are still a few days before the next batch of goods in Chaozhou, and there are not so many bullets. ”

Wu Shihao chewed and swallowed the barbecued pork bun in his mouth, and looked at Li An with a strange expression.

"You don't have to buy a short dog, anything else is fine, you can take me to see what he has there."
