Chapter 319: Chung Yee Shun's Opportunity
Officer George returned to his office and instructed Elizabeth:
"Go and invite Lin Ho-tung of Chung Yee Shun over."
Elizabeth was about to go when Officer George suddenly changed his mind,
"No, go and invite Su Su, the wife of Lin Ho-lung."
Elizabeth looked at him, puzzled.
"It is Lin Ho-lung who is in charge of Chung Yee Shun, not Lin Ho-tung."
"It is better to invite Lin Ho-lung's wife than to invite Lin Ho-tung."
Elizabeth frowned and said:
"Then why don't we just invite Lin Ho-lung directly?"
Officer George sighed:
"Lin Ho-lung recently took a concubine; he wants to have an heir."
Elizabeth was still confused:
"What does that have to do with anything?"
Officer George explained:
"In our Mainland, after having children, one's conduct and style inevitably become more restrained."
"This is called accumulating good fortune."
"It's not for oneself, but for the children."
"Isa, your scope of work is Hong Kong, you should master these local customs."
Elizabeth quickly apologized:
"Officer, I will study hard."
Officer George kept shaking his head:
"Not adapt, but integrate!"
Elizabeth lowered her head, not daring to speak further.
Officer George said calmly:
"Everyone's life trajectory has patterns to follow; the paths you've walked are your life experiences."
"People fear the unknown."
"People like familiar things."
"Just like you prefer to stay in the Political Department."
"This is life's comfort zone."
"Outside this circle, you will be very uncomfortable."
"Agents should not have a comfort zone."
Elizabeth's heart was wrenched fiercely:
"Yes, Officer."
Officer George explained:
"Lin Ho-lung wants children, but Su Su cannot bear children, so what can be done? Lin Ho-lung can only have children with other women."
"Think about it, won't Su Su feel regret?"
"Be polite to Su Su; our breakthrough point is with her."
Elizabeth left in silence.
Officer George pinched his brow, his expression grim.
Boldly abducting the Tycoon to the military camp, under the names of Grand Duke Andrei and General Cunningham, had been surprisingly smooth so far.
However, Officer George knew that his time was running out.
If he didn't resolve the matter quickly, he would face endless trouble.
The Tycoon's connections were a problem, the Golden Club was also a problem, and even Grand Duke Andrei himself was a problem.
Officer George dared not delay.
He pulled out a cigar and took a deep puff.
Officer George's eyes narrowed.
In his mind, there seemed to be an infinite storm, with various thoughts rising and falling.
After an unknown period, he confirmed one thing—he had no retreat!
There was no retreat at all!
From the moment he found Cunningham and abducted the Tycoon, there was no turning back.
Either go through with it and achieve boundless freedom!
Or be killed by the backlash from the Tycoon's people.
Besides that, there was no second choice!
This was Officer George's fate.
"This is really exciting."
The dangerous situation did not make Officer George despair; instead, it ignited his ferocity.
"I thought life in Hong Kong was a stagnant pool!"
"I didn't expect this trip to be so worthwhile."
"How interesting!"
Officer George touched his cheek, thinking to himself that Lin Feng had hit him hard.
Even after almost three days, his cheek had not fully recovered.
He had no idea that Lin Feng had held back; if he truly didn't want his face to recover, he would only need to leave a hidden force, and he would have a pig's head for a month.
"However, it is precisely this pain that makes me realize how dangerous my situation is."
Officer George shook his head with a bitter smile; he had actually forgotten his big creditor just now!
If he didn't repay the money, that guy would surely squeeze him dry and then sink him into Victoria Harbour.
His situation was truly not good.
This messy situation looked really super dangerous.
However, Officer George immediately grasped the core—money!
As long as he could successfully obtain the money, everything would be resolved.
Lin Feng would not bury him at sea.
The Tycoon would also be useless.
The Golden Club would be nothing to fear.
Officer George could also give a sufficient explanation to the Anglo-Saxon homeland.
Everything was perfect.
Provided he could get enough money!
"Officer, Ms. Su Su has been invited."
Just as Officer George was envisioning, Elizabeth's voice broke the silence.
Officer George put down his cigar, stood up tall, and courteously invited Su Su to sit.
"Madam Su Su, please sit."
Su Su held a handbag and looked at them, puzzled:
"Police Political Department?"
"Is it necessary to go to such lengths to find me?"
"The New Territories Police Headquarters would be enough, wouldn't it?"
Officer George smiled and shook his head:
"Madam Su Su misunderstands, I have no ill will towards ladies."
Su Su retorted sharply:
"Lying."
"You have something to do and you don't look for my husband, but you look for me, a mere woman. Do you think I'm easy to bully because I'm a woman?"
Officer George chuckled:
"Who would dare to bully you?"
"I came to Madam because I want to cooperate with you."
Su Su laughed:
"Cooperate with me?"
Officer George made a calming gesture with his hand:
"Let me first explain our method of cooperation, and Madam can judge for yourself."
"If you feel cooperation is not possible, then how about I go and negotiate with Mr. Lin Ho-lung?"
Su Su pondered for a moment, then finally nodded:
"You speak."
Officer George then said:
"I want to cooperate with you on drug trafficking."
Su Su laughed:
"You are a Superintendent of the Police Political Department, and you're telling me you want to traffic drugs?"
Officer George shrugged:
"I'm a Foreigner!"
Silence!
Elizabeth almost choked on her Officer's words.
Su Su also looked at him with a face full of surprise.
Officer George was very direct:
"To use your local people's words, I am a Foreigner."
"I have no feelings for Hong Kong."
"Drug trafficking, to me, carries no burden."
"Whether Hong Kong people use drugs or not, what do I care?"
Elizabeth was extremely uncomfortable; was this her refined Officer?
However, Su Su was very satisfied:
"Indeed, if you, a Foreigner, were to worry about Hong Kong people's affairs, that would be suspicious."
"So, what benefits do Chung Yee Shun get from cooperating with you?"
Officer George clapped his hands:
"Something with no benefits, I wouldn't do it even if my grandfather asked me to."
"The foundation of our cooperation is benefits."
"I will provide you with a batch of white powder."
"You don't even need to pay a deposit."
"Just sell the white powder and give me the money."
Su Su was surprised:
"Aren't you afraid we'll double-cross you?"
Officer George laughed loudly:
"I'm sorry, I really can't help it."
Su Su said with a dark face:
"Do you think we wouldn't dare?"
Officer George finally managed to stop laughing and said calmly:
"Of course you would dare."
"Who in the underworld doesn't know Chung Yee Shun is incredibly bold?"
"Otherwise, I wouldn't seek you out as partners."
"However, if I dare to seek your cooperation, I'm not afraid of your backlash."
"I said, I'm a Foreigner!"
Su Su was startled.
Elizabeth was very perceptive:
"This is Superintendent George of the Police Political Department. He has the authority to direct any major regional O-Team operation."
"In other words, if Officer George wishes, your Chung Yee Shun would face O-Team crackdowns in any major region of Hong Kong."
Su Su was silent.
Officer George smiled and waved his hand:
"Isa, we are collaborators with Chung Yee Shun, not adversaries."
Su Su was silent for a long while, then suddenly asked:
"Why do you insist on finding me for this matter, instead of my husband?"
"This is a big deal!"
Officer George said meaningfully:
"It's better to find Madam."
Su Su instinctively felt that what the other party said was not honorable.
Officer George slowly said:
"According to the local saying in Hong Kong, officials travel a thousand miles only for wealth. I want to get rich."
"And I just happen to have a lot of white powder on hand."
Su Su laughed:
"You Police Station are drugbusters, where do you get white powder?"
Officer George shrugged,
"You're right, it's precisely because we bust drugs that we have a lot of white powder."
"All this white powder is supposed to be disposed of according to regulations, and I think it's a great pity to just dispose of it."
"So, I want to reuse it."
Su Su's expression changed:
"You're doing a no-cost business?"
Officer George waved his hand:
"No, no, no, after cooperating with me, your Chung Yee Shun will also be doing a no-cost business."
Only then did Su Su's expression soften.
Officer George smiled and said:
"I have white powder, so naturally I need to choose partners."
"I must state that for our mutual benefit, I don't mind the Political Department getting involved, but then the question arises, if I always let my Political Department get involved, we might as well do it ourselves, why choose a partner?"
Su Su immediately said:
"Then this partner must be strong enough to handle most matters."
Officer George clapped his hands, "Exactly!"
"That's right!"
"If you don't choose your partner well, neither side will be able to sleep."
"So, I did a background check."
Su Su sneered incessantly.
"The background check showed that if we approach the Madam, the probability of successful negotiation is 100%."
"If we approach Mr. Lin Ho-lung, the probability of successful negotiation is only 70%."
Su Su was furious, "Are you saying I'm easy to fool?"
Officer George looked at her speechlessly, "Madam, being so emotional is a big taboo in negotiations."
"Can you let me finish speaking first?"
Su Su huffed, "Speak!"
Officer George said seriously, "I heard that Mr. Lin Ho-lung took a concubine, didn't he?"
Su Su's face immediately changed dramatically.
"I even heard that Mr. Lin Ho-lung wants a child of his own?"
Su Su was speechless.
Officer George's voice was very gentle, "I am a Foreigner, and I only have a superficial understanding of Hong Kong's local customs."
"But I have also heard a saying about accumulating blessings for one's descendants."
"Everyone knows very well what business Chung Yee Shun is in."
"If you fail and are caught by the Police Station, I imagine you'll most likely die of old age in prison, right?"
"Forget about accumulating blessings for future generations; it would be good enough not to bring misfortune upon your children."
"Mr. Lin Ho-lung is respectfully called the number one in the world... his courage and spirit are top-notch."
"But no matter how heroic, he can't get past a beautiful woman!"
Su Su interrupted him, "What you know is old news."
"Lin Ho-lung is no longer the number one in the world."
"The current number one in the world is Lin Feng!"
Officer George exclaimed, "Lin Feng is the number one in the world?"
"Hung Hing's Lin Feng?"
"Are you kidding? How old is he?"
Su Su looked at him contemptuously, "An old man cannot rely on his fists."
"Lin Ho-lung fighting three hundred men alone was an achievement he could only accomplish in his youth."
"If you doubt it, you can go and try."
Officer George was slightly lost in thought. So the one who beat him up was the recognized number one in the world in Hong Kong?
No wonder it hurt so much!
"Thank you for the correction, Madam."
Officer George quickly regained his composure!
Su Su thought for a moment and said, "When do we start cooperating?"
Officer George smiled, "Naturally, the sooner the better."
Su Su asked, "Is there anything else to add?"
Officer George smiled bitterly, "Originally, there wasn't."
"But your words reminded me..."
"Try not to distribute those white powders in Hong Kong."
Su Su asked curiously, "Not in Hong Kong?"
She looked at Officer George in surprise,
"You're not afraid of Lin Feng, are you?"
Officer George admitted frankly, "Yes, I am afraid!"
Su Su was particularly speechless, "You are a Superintendent of the Police Political Department, and you are afraid of Lin Feng?"
Officer George said calmly, "Lin Feng has posted two bounties in the past month, each worth twenty-five million hong kong dollars."
"He even buried The Ni Family and Chung Ching Society directly because he hated drug trafficking."
"I'm really scared!"
Su Su said speechlessly, "Lin Feng's biological father is Ngai Kun, and he hates The Ni Family because of Ngai Kun."
"As for Chung Ching Society, that was purely because The Ding Family's 'Crab' provoked his Madam..."
"What is all this about?"
Su Su particularly looked down on Officer George's unpromising appearance.
Officer George said very directly, "An official travels a thousand miles only for wealth. I've earned money, but I must have the life to spend it."
"Lin Feng has already spread the word in the underworld that he absolutely detests drug trafficking."
"Since this underworld Tycoon has spoken, I don't want to provoke him."
Su Su was extremely speechless.
However, it was precisely because of Officer George's words that she was moved.
It's good that the other party is afraid!
"Okay, I agree!"
"When do we start cooperating?"
Officer George smiled, "Let's start now."
"I'll give you ten kilograms of goods for the first time, and set a deadline for you to distribute them within one month."
"After one month, give me the payment for these ten kilograms, and I will give you next month's goods."
"Whenever you finish distributing them, I will give you the next batch of goods."
Su Su was surprised, "So generous?"
Officer George asked curiously, "Isn't this a very normal collaboration?"
Su Su shook her head slightly, "It's acceptable!"
Officer George smiled, "Isa, send the prepared goods back with Madam Su Su."
"You personally accompany her."
Elizabeth nodded in agreement.
Officer George smiled, "Isa is a Senior Inspector in our Political Department. With her, no one will check your car."
"I hope we have a pleasant cooperation."
Su Su extended her hand to shake Officer George's, then stood up and left, "A pleasant cooperation!"
Elizabeth nodded slightly to Officer George and left with Su Su.
Officer George felt quite pleased.
Indeed, foolish women.
He managed to persuade her with a simple thought.
Officer George picked up his cigar again and lit it.
The aroma of the cigar filled his mouth, and his taste buds experienced a unique sensation.
It was very intoxicating.
"No wonder those big figures love cigars so much."
"This isn't a cigar; it's practically a scepter."
"It feels as if the whole world is in my grasp."
Officer George felt wonderful!
All of Su Su's reactions just now were within his control. This feeling of having everything under control was truly great.
Half an hour later, Elizabeth returned.
"Officer, aren't you being too hard on yourself?"
Officer George laughed, "Hard on myself?"
"What are you talking about?"
Elizabeth said bluntly, "I'm talking about you debasing yourself."
Officer George was unfazed, "In the eyes of the local Hong Kong people, we are indeed Foreigners."
"There's no doubt about that."
"Most importantly, we have a very solid point."
"As an agent, completing the job is the top priority."
"Everything else is irrelevant."
Elizabeth could only nod.
Officer George said with interest, "You sent Su Su back, who picked her up?"
Elizabeth frowned, "It wasn't Lin Ho-lung; instead, it was his younger brother, Lin Ho-tung."
Officer George raised an eyebrow, "Then there's no mistake!"
Elizabeth was puzzled, but Officer George didn't want to explain to Elizabeth,
"Everything is within my grasp."
Elizabeth quickly said, "Officer is brilliant."
Officer George burst out laughing.
However, after only a short while, the phone rang urgently. Elizabeth picked up the phone and immediately said,
"Officer, General Cunningham's call."
Officer George took the phone and laughed, "My General, do you have any good news to tell me?"
Cunningham was somewhat exasperated, "George, where did you find the bodyguards for Andrei?"
Officer George was puzzled, "Thunder Security, this is the most popular Security Company among the wealthy now. I hired them through connections."
"These five people cost two million hong kong dollars for ten days!"
"Are they unqualified?"
"No way?"
Cunningham smiled bitterly, "No, no, no, they are too qualified, they are too great. I even want to keep them."
Officer George felt even more confused, "If the bodyguards are qualified, isn't that even better?"
Cunningham was silent for a while before saying, "Come over quickly, something big has happened!"
"Bring your little secretary too!"
Officer George immediately stood up and called Elizabeth, "To the barracks!"
Twenty minutes later, Officer George arrived at Cunningham's office, "My General, what exactly is going on?"
As soon as he spoke, he realized something was wrong. Not only was Cunningham in the office, but also Grand Duke Andrei, and of course, Grand Duke Andrei's bodyguard, Li Jie.
Cunningham said kindly to Li Jie, "Li, why don't you explain the situation?"
Officer George was very surprised. Cunningham was an old-school figure, yet he wanted Li Jie to explain the situation?
Was he kidding?
Li Jie stood up and showed a mobile phone, "This is Grand Duke Andrei's mobile phone."
Officer George didn't think much of it, then Li Jie disassembled the phone in a few quick movements, revealing a small device.
His pupils suddenly constricted, and he exclaimed, "A wiretap?!"
Li Jie said expressionlessly, "Thunder Security has internal rules. To protect the employer's safety, all communication equipment must be inspected."
"Including pagers and mobile phones."
"Unfortunately, Grand Duke Andrei has been under surveillance all along."
+++
Chapter 320: Things Have Gotten Serious
Bug!
Officer George's pupils suddenly contracted:
"How is that possible?"
Grand Duke Andrei angrily said:
"This is impossible!"
"I am an Imperial Duke, how could someone bug me?"
Li Jie said, neither humble nor pushy:
"It is the truth."
Cunningham didn't care about Grand Duke Andrei's reaction; he wanted to confirm one thing:
"Li, can you determine the style of this bug?"
Li Jie shrugged:
"Typically Anglo-Saxon style."
"According to the wear and tear of the components, Grand Duke Andrei was already being bugged before he even arrived in Hong Kong."
"I hope you haven't used this phone for any private conversations, otherwise it would truly be terrible."
Grand Duke Andrei asked foolishly:
"What's so terrible?"
Li Jie said casually:
"Actually, it's nothing, just that all the calls you make to others will be subjected to third-party monitoring."
Hiss!
Grand Duke Andrei gasped, and couldn't help but say:
"Then my transaction with the Tycoon, wouldn't it have fallen into the hands of those with ulterior motives?"
Officer George glared fiercely at Grand Duke Andrei.
Cunningham shook his head directly; what a fool, isn't this a self-incrimination?
Li Jie said lightly:
"I wouldn't know, but it's highly probable it was monitored."
Grand Duke Andrei plopped down onto the ground.
Officer George's heart suddenly stirred:
"Li, can you check if our offices have been monitored?"
Cunningham looked at Officer George, annoyed:
"This is my office, are you crazy?"
Officer George's expression was very clear:
"General, it's good to check."
Cunningham's heart stirred, and the words of reprimand couldn't be spoken:
"Alright then, let's do it."
Officer George said with a smile:
"Li, I trouble you."
Li Jie said calmly:
"You are the employer, you call the shots."
He clapped his hands:
"Brothers, check carefully."
The four members of Thunder Security pulled out their equipment and began checking.
Cunningham looked at Officer George, puzzled:
"You're a senior agent from the Military Intelligence Agency, yet you need others to check for surveillance equipment?"
Officer George hesitated for a moment before saying seriously:
"This is the General's territory, it's not convenient for me to do it."
Cunningham suddenly understood, and it was true; if Officer George were to do the checking, he really wouldn't trust him.
Who knows if this guy would tamper with something crucial?
Was he checking for him or installing a bug for him?
"There is a specialization in every field, and Thunder Security is quite professional in this regard."
Cunningham snorted:
"No matter how professional, they won't find anything."
"My office simply doesn't have any bugging devices, how could it?"
Just as he was speaking, a rapid "beep, beep, beep" sound suddenly rang out.
Cunningham suddenly turned around and saw Li Jie holding a machine, scanning something.
He was very familiar with that thing.
It was precisely the pager he carried with him.
"How is that possible?!"
Cunningham's eyes immediately widened!
Officer George immediately rushed over:
"Li, what did you find?"
Li Jie said in a deep voice:
"Some trouble."
"Everyone, put out your pagers."
Before Officer George could speak, Cunningham said loudly:
"Why aren't you putting them out quickly?"
So Grand Duke Andrei put his pager out.
Cunningham turned to look at Officer George and Elizabeth, the latter said:
"We don't have pagers."
"We are used to using phones."
"Pagers are a beat slower in conveying messages."
"For us intelligence personnel, messages that can be transmitted immediately are always the most important."
"If we can't transmit them, we wouldn't risk revealing our identities to do so."
Cunningham and Li Jie nodded.
"Beep, beep, beep!"
The device in Li Jie's hand emitted an urgent alarm sound.
Grand Duke Andrei's face turned dark:
"What's going on?"
"I barely used this pager."
Cunningham said angrily:
"If you didn't use it, why did you carry it with you?"
Grand Duke Andrei also got annoyed:
"The signal of this broken phone is sometimes completely unclear, so the pager is a supplement to the phone."
And it's true, in this era, it really was like that.
Especially for some crucial messages, if the phone signal was intermittent, then only a pager could be used to receive messages.
Cunningham ignored Grand Duke Andrei and turned to ask Li Jie:
"Li, what's the situation?"
Li Jie was very calm:
"I'll only know after taking it apart."
Cunningham waved his hand:
"Go ahead and dismantle it!"
The Brigadier General was furious; he felt he was being offended.
He had just said that his office had no problems, and he never expected to be proven wrong so quickly.
An office with no problems actually had a listening device!
He absolutely must not find out who did this!
Otherwise, he would definitely throw them into the open sea to feed the fish!
Definitely!
Li Jie quickly dismantled the pager!
He just took one look and his expression changed:
"Everyone, get down!"
Everyone present, except for Grand Duke Andrei, was well-trained, and upon hearing the command, they all immediately dove to the ground.
Fortunately, this was Brigadier General Cunningham's office, which was ridiculously large, more than enough for everyone to lie down with room to spare.
While Grand Duke Andrei was still bewildered, he saw Li Jie kick the pager with a flying kick.
Thump!
The thing was instantly kicked away with a whoosh.
Grand Duke Andrei shouted:
"That's my pager…"
Boom!
An explosion suddenly rang out outside the office door.
Grand Duke Andrei was stunned!
His mouth hung wide open, he simply couldn't believe his eyes.
The alarm sounded instantly.
Teams of fully armed soldiers rushed over.
Brigadier General Cunningham, with a dark face, told them to go back, and seeing the still dazed and cold Grand Duke Andrei, he immediately flared up.
Slap!
A fierce slap landed on Grand Duke Andrei's face:
"What are you staring at?"
"Didn't you hear Li tell you to get down?"
Grand Duke Andrei finally came to his senses, and ignoring the pain on his face, he pressed on:
"What was that situation?"
Cunningham turned and asked with a pleasant expression:
"Li, what's going on?"
Li Jie's expression was solemn:
"I originally thought the pager was just a bug."
"Unfortunately, I was wrong."
"This is a specially made bomb."
Grand Duke Andrei shouted:
"Impossible!"
"I even used it these past two days!"
Cunningham said furiously:
"Can you just shut up?"
"Can you let Li finish or not?"
"Li, if this is a bomb, how could it still be used normally?"
Li Jie was very calm:
"I said, this is a specially made bomb."
"The bomb isn't placed on the components, but on the battery."
Cunningham was astonished:
"Battery?"
Li Jie nodded:
"Yes, the battery!"
"To be precise, it's placed on one corner of the battery."
"This won't affect the normal function of the pager, but at a critical moment, it will serve another purpose."
Everyone shuddered.
Elizabeth's face turned pale, and she blurted out:
"Fortunately, I didn't use this thing."
"These things are all worn on the waist, and there would definitely be no special defense there."
Officer George chimed in:
"Once it explodes, that person will definitely die."
A person's waist is quite critical, protecting the softest organs.
Most importantly, there's a spine there!
If the spine is damaged, a person basically has no chance of survival.
Even if saved, they would be paralyzed from then on.
Grand Duke Andrei was trembling with fear.
"Who on earth wants to harm me?"
Cunningham clenched his fists and asked:
"Li, how do you know so much?"
Officer George explained:
"Li is a former SWAT officer; he is the most famous bomb disposal expert at the Police Station."
Cunningham suddenly felt relieved.
So he was an expert, no wonder he was so sensitive.
"So, can you determine which faction this is from?"
Li Jie looked at the pager in his hand with interest:
"This is the first time I've seen something like this."
"It seems this thing is specifically used for assassination."
"We can basically rule out the Red faction."
Cunningham asked, puzzled:
"Why?"
Li Jie said unhurriedly:
"They don't have this technology."
Cunningham immediately agreed.
That's right, the Red faction doesn't have this technology.
But in an instant, his face turned green.
If the Red faction doesn't have this technology, then doesn't that mean this technology comes from the Western faction?
And who wants to get rid of him?
"This thing isn't for eavesdropping; it's more of an assassination tool."
"But there's a limitation here."
Cunningham quickly asked:
"What limitation?"
Li Jie said bluntly:
"How to ensure this bomb… this pager gets into the hands of the designated person."
"Some people don't use pagers."
Cunningham and Grand Duke Andrei immediately fell into deep thought.
Li Jie thought for a moment and said:
"I always feel that people who use such things are petty and not at all grand."
Cunningham gritted his teeth and said, "Assassination is not a grand affair to begin with."
"Li, you've worked hard."
Li Jie shrugged, "I was hired to protect Grand Duke Andrei, this is my job."
"Grand Duke Andrei, there are some things we must make clear."
Grand Duke Andrei was terrified; he was accustomed to a life of luxury, and suddenly realizing that not only was he being monitored, but his life was also in someone else's control, how could he dare to say anything?
Li Jie said indifferently, "I hope that all your outings will be within my sight."
"Before entering any environment, you must wait until my security team confirms it is safe."
"There are some dangerous places you cannot go."
Grand Duke Andrei nodded repeatedly, "Don't worry, you are the expert, I will listen."
Li Jie smiled happily, "That would be for the best!"
"Then, Brigadier General Cunningham, please prepare a room for us."
"I think it's best for Grand Duke Andrei to rest here."
"If he needs to go to the next location, I request to enter in advance to ensure safety."
Cunningham readily agreed, "No problem at all."
Li Jie politely took his leave.
Cunningham sighed, "Now this is a real bodyguard."
"Those two million hong kong dollars were well spent!"
George sighed, "Li is one of Thunder Security's three senior executives."
Cunningham waved his hand, "As long as one is alive, there will naturally be endless glory and wealth to enjoy. If one dies, nothing can be enjoyed."
"This small amount of money, spend it if you have to."
"Andrei, don't you agree?"
Grand Duke Andrei repeatedly exclaimed, "George, when I return, I will certainly put in a good word for you."
"Thank you for finding me such a high-level bodyguard."
Cunningham asked with a grim face, "How did you get your pager?"
Grand Duke Andrei frowned, "Let me think..."
"It seems like a gift someone gave me."
Cunningham's brow furrowed even deeper, "This pager was a gift from the Patriarch, and I heard it was also given to him by someone."
George's expression suddenly changed, "No, I must report to the mainland. If this kind of pager is specifically given to nobles..."
Cunningham interrupted him, "Not necessarily nobles, more likely political figures."
George was so scared he broke into a sweat, "Then I must report to headquarters even more urgently."
Cunningham's heart stirred, and he urged, "Go report quickly!"
George suddenly felt something was off, "But what reason would I use?"
Cunningham frowned, "Do you still need a reason?"
George smiled bitterly, "Of course I need a reason."
"Otherwise, all our actions will be exposed."
Cunningham sneered, "The Grand Duke of the Empire nearly died, isn't that reason enough?"
"The Brigadier General of the Empire nearly died, isn't that enough?"
George immediately said, "I'll go report right away!"
He could feel that not only Cunningham, but even Grand Duke Andrei was getting a bit agitated.
Actually, it made sense.
These two were almost blown to death.
Li Jie returned to his room and instructed, "Keep watch for me."
The team members nodded solemnly.
Li Jie immediately called Lin Feng, "Brother Feng, I found two pager bombs inside the Anglo-Saxon Garrison base."
Lin Feng was startled, "Pager bombs?"
"Whose?"
Li Jie said incredulously, "One belongs to Grand Duke Andrei, and the other to Brigadier General Cunningham."
Lin Feng immediately reviewed the records in his mind and instantly understood, "It's alright, it's not aimed at us."
Li Jie's eyes widened!
Of course, he knew it wasn't aimed at them.
Grand Duke Andrei and Brigadier General Cunningham were clearly Foreigners.
What surprised him was that his boss seemed to know who had planted the bombs.
"Brother Feng, do you know about this?"
Lin Feng didn't hide it from him; he never hid things from his trusted subordinates.
"I know."
Li Jie was greatly surprised, "...It wasn't you who placed them, was it?"
Lin Feng was particularly speechless, "If I wanted to eliminate these two, I would do it without anyone knowing. Why would I use a pager bomb?"
"I'm not a terrorist."
Li Jie frowned slightly, "This was done by terrorists?"
Lin Feng shrugged, "No, it was done by a group of Sons of God."
Li Jie was stunned.
Lin Feng casually said, "This doesn't concern us."
"Honestly, this kind of thing shouldn't even appear in Hong Kong."
"However, its appearance now is actually a good thing for us."
"You just need to protect Grand Duke Andrei well."
Li Jie immediately understood.
Although he hadn't been under Lin Feng for long, he knew how resourceful his boss was.
After Li Jie finished his call and came out, he saw George walking towards him.
"Officer George, is there something you need?"
George was also very direct, "I'd like to ask Mr. Li some questions."
Li Jie smiled, "You are the employer, anything that doesn't go beyond Thunder Security's secrets can be discussed."
George made a joke, "Even matters of the Hung Hing Society?"
Li Jie shrugged, "What do you think?"
George said seriously, "I'd like to ask, Mr. Li, do you know the specific origin of that pager bomb?"
He paused, "Don't worry, I won't treat Mr. Lin unfairly."
Li Jie looked at him with a half-smile.
George secretly resented it and quickly changed the subject, "Please tell me, Mr. Li."
Li Jie said directly, "I only know that this method is from the Western bloc, not the Eastern bloc."
Disappointment was evident in George's eyes.
Li Jie smiled, "However, I consulted Brother Feng."
George's expression brightened, "What did Mr. Lin say?"
Li Jie shrugged, "I don't understand what Brother Feng said."
"But I think you might understand."
"He said."
"This method was used by a group of guys who call themselves Sons of God."
George's spirits lifted, "It's them?"
Li Jie asked curiously, "Who are they?"
George's face was exceptionally grim, "The guys from Zion."
Li Jie was startled, "These guys are crazy, they dare to target you?"
George's mouth twitched, and after a long sigh, he said, "They have money!"
Li Jie was stunned, as if he understood something, yet also understood nothing.
George said solemnly, "Mr. Li, thank you. Please be sure to convey my gratitude to Mr. Lin."
After speaking, he hurriedly turned around and went to find Cunningham again.
Cunningham looked at George, quite surprised, "Have you contacted the mainland?"
George shook his head, "Not yet."
Cunningham frowned deeply, "Why aren't you reporting to your superiors immediately? What are you doing at the base?"
George suddenly said to Grand Duke Andrei, who was nearby, "Grand Duke, please step back. I have something to discuss with the General."
Grand Duke Andrei was bewildered, "You're asking me to leave?"
He became furious, "Superintendent, mind your status!"
Cunningham said impatiently, "Are you going or not?"
Grand Duke Andrei said grumpily, "Cunningham, he insulted me!"
Cunningham cursed, "You don't hold a position in the military. George clearly wants to discuss some military secrets."
"Aren't you going to discreetly get out?"
Grand Duke Andrei still wanted to argue.
Cunningham said angrily, "Your bodyguard was hired for you by George. If it weren't for him, who knows when both of us would have been gone. In any case, George is also your benefactor."
"Is this how you treat a benefactor?"
Grand Duke Andrei raised his hands and sheepishly left.
Cunningham was still not appeased, "That bastard is really annoying."
"The interfering person is gone, what do you have to say to me?"
George sighed, "I just spoke to Li, and we've confirmed the source of that explosive."
Cunningham frowned, "Why didn't Li say anything earlier? Oh, Andrei was here!"
George didn't want to expose Lin Feng's existence, so he said directly, "Li is certain that this style, those pager bombs, came from Zion."
Cunningham's pupils suddenly contracted, "Zion?!"
George slowly shook his head.
Cunningham pondered with a frown, and after a while, sneered, "It doesn't matter!"
"You report directly to the mainland, and by the way, tell them about Grand Duke Andrei and the Tycoon."
George's scalp tingled, "Isn't that self-incrimination?"
Cunningham sneered, "No, with the Zion people in front, the gentlemen in the mainland will naturally know how to make us both keep quiet."
