Chapter 41 Ah Huang has gone mad, saying he wants to start a new O-Team.
The wind was strong on the rooftop, blowing Luo Ji's curly hair wildly.
Footsteps approached, and Shen Shaofeng pushed open the safety door leading to the rooftop and stepped out.
Lu Qichang nodded to Luo Ji, indicating that this was the new liaison officer mentioned earlier.
Luo Ji looked Shen Shaofeng up and down.
"Luo Ji, I am Shen Shaofeng, the commander of the B1-2 squad of the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau."
Luo Ji didn't speak, but looked at Lu Qichang with a question in his eyes—wasn't this officer a little too young?
Lu Qichang said in a deep voice, "Huang Zhicheng may have problems. For safety reasons, starting today, Shen Sir will temporarily take over as your contact person."
Luo Ji was startled by Lu Qichang's words.
No wonder they suddenly changed the liaison officer; it turns out there was a mole in the Major Crimes Unit!
Luk Kai-cheung continued, "There is evidence that he is connected to Han Chen and Mary, and he is also a suspect in the murder of Ni Kun... In short, we are not safe in West Kowloon now."
Luo Ji was silent for a moment: "Shen Sir, why you?"
Lu Qichang frowned upon hearing this: "Luo Ji, you're a policeman, you must obey your superiors..."
Shen Shaofeng waved his hand to stop Lu Qichang: "I just took office and immediately put Gandhi and Guohua in check, which made Ni Yongxiao and the three leaders feel like they were facing a major enemy."
Luo Ji stared at Shen Shaofeng, took a deep drag of his cigarette, and said nothing.
He naturally knew the inside story of Gandhi and Guohua's downfall from power in the Ni family, and Ni Yongxiao's face had indeed looked very grim these past few days.
"Actually, they had an emergency discussion at the Ni family's house that night, and I was also very anxious to get the message out..."
Luo Jizheng was about to explain when Shen Shaofeng put his arm around his shoulder and said, "Lu Sir and I both understand. It's normal that the message couldn't be delivered back then. You don't need to blame yourself."
"Getting back to the main point, if Wong Chi-shing really is the mole, you, and other potential undercover brothers in West Kowloon, are all standing on the edge of a cliff."
"Inspector Lu is entrusting you to me. My primary task is not to urge you to obtain intelligence, but to ensure your safety."
Luo Ji's Adam's apple bobbed, and his previously tense brows relaxed slightly.
Shen Shaofeng's words struck at his deepest unease; as an undercover agent, the greatest fear is having one's identity exposed.
Seeing that Luo Ji's expression softened, Shen Shaofeng added, "Luo Ji, it's normal that you don't know me and don't trust me. But you can trust Inspector Lu and Chief Inspector Li of the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau. I assure you, as long as I am still your contact, your safety is my bottom line."
"Also, don't assume you're the only undercover police officer in the Ni family..."
Luo Ji spat his cigarette butt onto the ground and stomped it out with his leather shoe: "I know, Chen Yongren, when he first returned to the Ni family, I sensed a kindred spirit in him."
"But this kid is too green. He made it too obvious several times, and I was worried for him."
Shen Shaofeng shook his finger: "It's not Aren. Actually, I know more about the Ni family than you think. For example, in the Ni family's study, on the fifth row from the top, there's a copy of 'Jin Ping Mei' with a red cover, right?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Ji and Lu Qichang exchanged a surprised glance.
Luo Ji thought about it carefully for a while, and it seemed that it was indeed true.
Judging from Luo Ji's reaction, Lu Qichang knew that what Shen Shaofeng said was true.
Did the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau (OCTB) also send an undercover agent into the Ni family?
However, he wasn't foolish enough to ask Shen Shaofeng, Luo Ji, or Chen Yongren questions. It was someone else's skill to have their identities guessed, and he would only embarrass himself by asking such sensitive questions.
He coughed twice: "Aji, although Shaofeng is young, he is steady in his work, meticulous in his thinking, and most importantly, he dares to take responsibility. I feel at ease entrusting you to him."
"Sir Shen, what should I do?"
Luo Ji finally spoke again, which meant that from this moment on, he had accepted the new liaison officer from the bottom of his heart.
"For now, there's no need to do anything, especially if Ni Yongxiao suddenly makes any big moves recently; it could be a test..."
"Also, keep an eye on Chen Yongren for me. According to what you just said, he could be exposed at any time. I'll find an opportunity to contact him later..."
Just as Shen Shaofeng was about to explain things to Luo Ji in detail, Lu Qichang's phone suddenly rang.
"Hey, who's next?"
"What...!"
Lu Qichang's expression suddenly changed drastically after hearing just a couple of sentences.
"Okay, I'll be right back!"
He hung up the phone and looked at Shen Shaofeng and Luo Ji: "Something's happened in West Kowloon. Huang Zhicheng has gone crazy for some reason and taken a uniformed policeman hostage..."
"Ah Ji, you can leave now. This is my number."
Shen Shaofeng took a slip of paper from his inner pocket and handed it to Luo Ji.
Luo Ji knew they had important business to attend to, so he took the note, glanced at it, burned it with a lighter, and left.
"Officer Lu, what exactly happened?"
"There's no time to explain. Follow me in the car, I'll tell you on the way..."
……
The West Kowloon Police Station building is now completely cordoned off with police tape.
In the darkness, police lights flashed, and a large number of PTU riot police were in position, while SDU snipers stood by on the rooftop of the building opposite.
The building is on the third floor, at the corner of the corridor.
Huang Zhicheng leaned against the wall, his left hand gripping the neck of a young uniformed police officer, his .38 revolver pressed firmly against the officer's temple.
Police officer Yang Xiaoji, dressed in military uniform, was pale and sweating profusely.
Dozens of meters away, Huang Qifa, wearing a bulletproof vest, along with several subordinates from the Major Crimes Unit, was huddled in Huang Zhicheng's blind spot, patiently trying to persuade him.
"Ah Huang! Calm down! Put down your gun, we can talk about anything! Xiao Ji is your brother, release him first!"
Huang Zhicheng's eyes were bloodshot, and he was on the verge of a breakdown: "My own brothers would investigate me behind my back? They would go around asking people all over the world about photos of me and Mary? Huang Sir, do you think I'm new here?!"
He became agitated and pressed the gun barrel harder, causing Yang Xiaoji to grunt.
Huang Qifa asked in a low voice, "How long until the negotiation experts arrive?"
The subordinate next to him immediately replied, "There are still fifteen minutes left."
Huang Qifa gritted his teeth and continued to stall for time: "Ah Huang, it's a misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding!"
"We're not investigating you! Ah Huang, put the gun down first. I, as the Chief Inspector, guarantee that nothing will happen!"
Even ghosts wouldn't believe Huang Qifa's words.
Huang Zhicheng shouted again, "I don't believe you! Where's Lu Qichang? Call him out! Make him tell me face to face, we're brothers, why are you investigating Ni Kun's case behind my back! Why are you digging up those old dirt! Ni Kun is a major drug lord!"
He was panting heavily when he heard the increasingly loud sirens outside. Suddenly, he roared, "And the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau (OCTB) too! Call the OCTB! I know it's Li Wenbin and Shen Shaofeng behind this! They want to destroy Han Chen, destroy the Ni family, and even drag me into it! Call them here! I want to get to the bottom of this!"
The corridor was deathly silent, and Huang Qifa's face grew increasingly grim.
Damn it, how did Huang Zhicheng discover that he was secretly investigating him? Now it's gotten so big, how are we going to clean this up?
Just then, footsteps came from the stairwell.
Lu Qichang and Shen Shaofeng arrived quickly, one after the other.
