He Chusan's private office is located in a small high-rise building by the sea in Wanchai District, opposite the newly built Hong Kong International Convention and Exhibition Center Phase I four years ago. The International Convention and Exhibition Center covers a vast area with towering floors. It has the largest glass curtain wall in the world at that time. The blue curtain wall faces the bay, and the glass reflects the sunshine, making it dazzling. He Chusan rented an inconspicuous office in an inconspicuous small office building next to it, and quietly opened a data analysis company.
Hidden behind this world-renowned seaside building, hidden in this world-renowned Asian financial center city, it has acted as a behind-the-scenes trader of many large transactions, developing quietly and making money in obscurity.
Not many people know the address of this small company. The bodyguards sent by Mr. Xia have been disguised and guarded downstairs in recent days to protect the safety of the sister-in-law. Therefore, when a young man with slender eyebrows appeared in He Chusan's office without warning and handed over his business card with a slight smile, He Chusan looked at the words "Lu Guangming, Director of Investigation of the Independent Commission Against Corruption" on the business card. , a little curious.
"Lu SIR, I didn't receive any visitor notification, how did you get in?"
"Safe passage," Lu Guangming said with a smile, "fortunately, the floors here are not high."
He Chusan's assistant who was outside found the uninvited guest and quickly followed. He Chusan waved the screen away from him, motioning him to close the door.
He got up and led Lu Guangming to the sofa beside him, and poured a cup of tea himself, "Lu SIR, please."
Sitting on the sofa opposite Lu Guangming, he looked at the sly-eyed ICAC director who seemed younger than himself, and said calmly, "Lu SIR, I'm a small businessman who keeps his own feet. This company only has ten A few staff members, this scale is not in the eyes of the ICAC, right?"
Lu Guangming shook his head, "Don't worry, there's nothing wrong with Mr. He's company, it's as innocent as Mr. He himself. Mr. He started his own company after only two years of practice, and he also served as a clerk under the name of Xiaoqitang. He is an investment advisor of a company, known on the road as a "baby fortune-seeker", but no matter how much he investigates, he can't find any flaws. This is a bit strange.
"Maybe I've never done anything I shouldn't have done?" He Chusan said calmly.
"Maybe," Lu Guangming said with a smile, "Mr. He was born in a prestigious school and is a handsome young man. He wants to be different from the ordinary young and bewildered boys on the street."
He Chusan didn't want to go around with him any more, "After talking so much, what is Lu SIR doing here?"
"I want to make a deal with you."
"What deal?"
"Xia Liuyi, the leader of Xiaoqitang, I know that your relationship with him is not easy. I have a deadly handle on him, which is enough to wipe out Xiaoqitang and put Xia Liuyi in prison again—but It's not as simple as three months, it's to sit in prison. You give me what I need, and in exchange, I can save him from disasters and disasters. "
He Chusan sat on the sofa with a relaxed and calm posture, "I'm sorry, Sir Lu, I don't believe it. As the director of the ICAC, if you really have a so-called handle, instead of getting what you want through me, go directly to the door. Wouldn't it be easier to arrest someone?"
He stood up to see off the guest, and Lu Guangming knew that he was acting in a pretentious manner, so he stopped going around in circles, and said bluntly, "I have the identity information of a police undercover officer under Xia Liuyi."
He Chusan looked down at him, frowning, "Undercover? As the director of the ICAC, in exchange for your own interests, you are willing to expose the police undercover?"
Lu Guangming laughed, "Mr. He seems to be very clear about what Xia Liuyi will do to the undercover. Although I have no conscience, I still have a little limit, I really want to harm that person. Undercover, I will not talk to you about the deal, but directly to Xia Liuyi. Mr. He has a more conscience than me. You do this deal for Xia Liuyi, and the undercover life rests with you. in hand."
He Chusan looked at him in disbelief, "What do you want to exchange?"
"The leading 'account book' of Xiaoqitang."
"I've never heard of that kind of thing, and I won't do any business with you." He Chusan said decisively to see off the guest, "Please come back, Sir Lu."
Lu Guangming stood up leisurely, "As far as I know, this undercover spy already has a lot of criminal evidence and will close the net soon. Mr. He really doesn't think about his 'lover'?"
"I don't have a 'lover,'" He Chusan said without changing his face, "If you are trying to allude to Xia Liuyi, you have misunderstood my relationship with him. I only provide some investment advice for his company. As for you As for Xia Liuyi's criminal evidence, if he really committed a crime, he should bear the corresponding responsibility. He is an adult with independent thinking and behavior ability, and he is responsible for his own behavior, and he does not need others to consider it for him. "
Lu Guangming smiled again, "It seems that Mr. He is also an interesting person. It doesn't matter, I have patience. Mr. He will consider it slowly, and then call me after thinking about it." He gestured to the business card in He Chusan's hand and left. .
He Chusan sat on the sofa, frowned and looked at the business card for a long time, then picked it up with two fingers and threw it into the trash can.
He sat back at his desk as if nothing had happened and continued to work, not taking this little episode seriously. He could see that Lu Guangming was bluffing - precisely because he lacked strength and experience, he decorated himself to be cunning and sophisticated. He judged that Lu Guangming didn't have any real clues in his hands, and he didn't have any police undercover, but he was desperate for something under investigation, and wanted to make up a story to deceive him.
He didn't take anything Lu Guangming said.
…
Lu Guangming smiled and walked out of He Chusan's company building and got into a taxi. Half an hour later, he and a few colleagues converged outside the Yau Ma Tei Police Station. Showing their ICAC license plates, they swaggered into the police station and stood at the desk of a mid-level official.
"Wang SIR, two months ago, a report letter was sent to the ICAC office, reporting that you concealed criminal evidence and accepted bribes of 2.85 million for Huifa Finance Company for three years. , I now file a formal arrest against you."
The Wang SIR was shocked and stood up furiously, "How could there be a report letter! I did what he said..." He realized that the report letter that the ICAC staff just said was sent "a month ago", But the person who called him late at night to blackmail him into doing things with a report letter appeared a few days ago - it turns out that when that person called, the ICAC had already received the report letter!
"Some of you messed with me! Someone made a deal with me and used me!" He suddenly realized that he angrily pointed to the opposite party. Lu Guangming narrowed his eyes and smiled.
"Wang SIR, there is no basis or evidence, please don't slander the ICAC staff. If you drive too much at night, you will always run into ghosts. Who asked you to make deals with the devil yourself."
In the evening, He Chusan finished his day's work and was the last to leave the office. However, at the last moment when the elevator door closed, he suddenly pressed the door button and returned to the office.
After rummaging in the trash for a while, he pulled out the business card and stuffed it into the compartment of his briefcase.
…
A few days later, on Christmas Eve, near Xi Restaurant, the hall was full of joy. He Chusan booked this night's old restaurant near the old site of Jiaolong Fortress three months in advance. Dentist He has been diligent, skilled, and loyal all his life. He often helps the old and the young, does good deeds, and is a good peacemaker. He speaks great truths, mediates neighborhood disputes from time to time, and is deeply loved by the neighbors. His old tree was blooming, and the fragrance drifted a hundred miles away, attracting a large number of old friends and old guests, who came with their families to congratulate Dentist He on his good old days.
He Chusan brought his little sister Xinxin to welcome the guests at the door, and was taken aback by the endless battle. His father and Wu's mother have no relatives except their two children, so according to his statistics, there are at most thirty or fifty people. He only found this old shop that the neighbors liked and the atmosphere is nostalgic and warm. The entrance hall is not large, there are four or five round tables, and a small table can be set up for a ceremony - but now it seems that it costs one or two. There are hundreds of people, and there is a table on each side of the small table, which is still far from enough! Seeing that there are more and more people, let alone seating, there is almost no place to stay!
At this time, if you change the restaurant or go to other restaurants to book a few more tables, there will definitely be no seats. Besides, it is not easy for the guests to attend the wedding banquet in two places. He Chusan called Xinxin over and whispered, and asked her to discuss with the restaurant whether she could work harder to add a few more seats. The restaurant has no courtyard, so it can only be placed on the street by the door. Anyway, it is located in a remote place, and people are going to the city center on Christmas Eve, and it will not hinder the passage of pedestrians.
Xinxin went away. The manager of the restaurant was also active in thinking. Hearing her suggestion, he immediately set up the arrangement with people in full swing. He asked someone to drive a truck and borrowed a few large tables from other brothers' restaurants. He also ordered more meals from other restaurants - his kitchen is really busy. opened.
He Chusan arranged for Abba and Wu Ma to greet the guests and enliven the atmosphere; he also pulled two colleagues from his data analysis company out of their seats to help, maintaining order on the scene, arranging seats, setting wine and rushing dishes; restaurant waiter Due to the shortage of manpower, He Chusan called Xiao He, and Xiao He came to the rescue with a group of former little sisters without a word. Yingying and Yanyan put on a little powder and pretended to be a gentle and shy girl from a good family and a good family to greet everyone and pour a drink. They regarded many old neighborhoods as savage, and they were only able to relax after being scolded by their wife's ears.
Under his management, a lively and lively banquet was being prepared in a hurry but not in a hurry. Seeing that everything was going well, Xinxin suddenly hurried in from the outside, and told He Chusan that two patrolling Ah SIRs had arrived. Ah SIR said that the dining table placed on the sidewalk on the street obstructed the traffic, even if there was not a pedestrian outside, it must be evacuated, otherwise it would be reported to the Municipal Administration.
He Chusan personally went out to communicate with Ah SIR in good words and asked for accommodation. The A SIRs enforced the law impartially and demanded their immediate withdrawal. He Chusan retreated and asked Ah SIR to give him some time to slow down. He immediately arranged for people to move the seats to other restaurants.
The middle-aged Ah SIR, who was headed by him, had blue veins all over his face, and it could be seen that he was in a very bad mood tonight. Unable to allow He Chusan to speak again, he suddenly lashed out at the wine table where half a table of wine and dishes had been set up and a circle of guests sat, and he knocked the whole table to the ground at once! The guests scattered in fright. He Chusan stepped forward to comfort him. He hit the right eye with a punch, and immediately covered one side of his face and curled up.
He Chusan's eyes were dim, and he vaguely heard the voice of the bodyguard Anan, with an anxious tone, "Big brother!"
He Chusan raised his head in surprise and saw Xia Liu rushing forward with a black face, punching the middle-aged Ah SIR into the food scraps all over the floor!
After some careful preparations, Mr. Xia came to the banquet with joy, chewed a lollipop and hummed a little song in the car, and gave a big red envelope to each of the bodyguards on duty. The bodyguards expected something good to happen today, and happily accompanied the boss to meet the sister-in-law. Unexpectedly, just as the car approached the destination, the sister-in-law was beaten...
The car had not stopped, and the bodyguards had not had time to get out of the car, but the boss had already opened the car door and rushed out!
Xia Liuyi picked up that Ah SIR and punched him in the eyes again! The other young Ah SIR who was stunned by the side didn't react at this time, and hurriedly grabbed the electric baton and rushed up to beat Xia Liuyi's back - so nervous that he even forgot to turn on the electricity! Xia Liuyi turned around and swept him to the ground with one kick. He grabbed the electric baton and turned around to poke the middle-aged Ah SIR in the eye, but was stopped by Anan and He Chusan who rushed up together.
"Boss, you can't do it!" Anan was honest and did not worry about the consequences of blocking the boss at this time, so he grabbed the electric baton and tried to persuade him.
"Brother Liuyi! Enough, enough, I'm fine!" He Chusan hugged his waist and persuaded. Attacking the police in full view of the public, or beating people to death, how much trouble does this have to cause
Xia Liuyi has a ruthless temper, throwing away the electric baton and He Chusan, and rushing up to beat him again. The fist was just swung, and then I realized who I threw it just now. He quickly turned around and went back to grab He Chusan, who was stumbling in his footsteps. He held the other's face and looked carefully, "Are you all right?! Can you see clearly?"
"I'm fine, I'm fine." He Chusan said that he was fine, but the corners of his brows were swollen, his right eye was bloodshot, and his eyes were obviously chaotic. Xia Liuyi saw that his heart was twisted like a knife, and his anger was even more intense. The middle-aged Ah SIR who was beaten slowed down and yelled at the back, "Fuck you in the street! The Xian family shovel (death to the whole family)! You dare to attack the police?!"
"I want you to shovel today!" Xia Liuyi turned around and was about to start again when the other party recognized him and exclaimed, "Xia Liuyi?!"
Xia Liuyi slowed down and recognized the SIR, who had been beaten until his nose was bruised and swollen, "Detective Wu?"
Come on, this time the flood washed the Dragon King Temple, and my family didn't know my family. It turns out that this Wu SIR used to be a high-ranking inspector in Kowloon City. He used to work for the former Chief Inspector "Inspector Hua". good at. When the limelight was in full swing a few years ago, he was a frequent visitor to the major entertainment venues under the name of Xiaoqitang, and a senior VIP of Sandalwood Pavilion. Red envelope. After the fall of Inspector Hua, the newly appointed Chief Inspector Mak swept away the corruption of his predecessor, claiming to establish a new trend of integrity and integrity in the Kowloon City Police Force. Inspector Wu, an old oily man who was a remnant of the previous dynasty and who mixed food and drink, bore the brunt of being swept out of the house, and was pushed out of the management three or two times; this year, because of two disciplinary problems, he was demoted three levels and rushed to the street. Be a patrolman. Detective Wu was full of resentment and had nowhere to relieve it. From time to time, he would provoke and provoke things to vent. As a result, he didn't know that he was getting moldy today, so he found the fault of Xiaoqitang's sister-in-law.
Since it is such a strong old friend, Detective Wu can't continue to make a fortune, and Xia Liuyi can't continue to beat and retaliate. How much hatred and how much resentment? Just a small misunderstanding. So Xia Liuyi personally stepped forward to help Detective Wu and apologized for wiping his face. Detective Wu also expressed a small apology for the wedding banquet and He Chusan. The two sides went to the side and exchanged privately about the good wishes of the police and the people to continue long-term mutual assistance and cooperation. Xia Liuyi said that he would come to visit with a generous gift in two days, and Detective Wu left with his little colleagues happily.
After a few words, Inspector Wu was sent away. Xia Liuyi looked at his back and called Anan over to whisper a few words. Anan leaves.
Xia Liuyi motioned to the other bodyguards to rearrange the tables and chairs, clean up, and invite all the guests to take their seats again. He himself took He Chusan and thought about going across the street to the car to treat the wound - there was an emergency medical kit in the car. From the corner of He Chusan's eyes, he saw Abba and Wu Ma squeeze out of the house, and quickly shook his head at Xia Liuyi, pulled him forward, and greeted the second old man.
"Dad, who do you think is here?"
"Drink! Mr. Xia! Long time no see! Flourish brilliance, Pengpi splendid!" Abba He showed a flattered gesture, still in the tone of the text, the compliment on the surface, but it was actually beating and beating. The corner of Xia Liu's eyes jumped, and the back molars subconsciously began to sore again.
He endured the pain, and respectfully sent out his blessing, "Mr. He, congratulations!" Then he took a small packaged gift from the bodyguard and presented it, "I heard that red envelopes are not accepted today. This is my point. Be careful, not respect."
"Drink! Thank you, thank you!" Dad He was obviously not very interested in gifts, so he put the gift under his arm and began to care about his son, "San, what's going on outside? I heard they say there's a fight? Hey! What's wrong with your face?! Does it matter?! Go to the hospital quickly!"
"It's nothing, it doesn't matter, I just had a little conflict with a SIR, and Brother Liuyi coaxed him away."
"Mr. Xia really has three heads and six arms, and he has great powers." Abba He dropped his book bag and complimented again. Xia Liuyi's teeth were sore again, "Mr. He is joking, you should call me Liuyi."
"Then how dare you? If you can't do it, it won't work," Abba He turned to talk to Wu Ma, "Qian Li, I haven't introduced you yet. This Mr. Xia is young and promising, and he has opened a very large 'company'. It's like a cloud..."
He Chusan saw his brother Liuyi's face turning blue and white for a while, and hurriedly pushed Abba and Wu Ma into the room, "Dad, Mom, Brother Liuyi, I'll arrange it, you two should go and continue to greet the guests. !"
He dragged Xia Liuyi into the lobby as well, and walked deeper along the wall with few people. Xia Liuyi said as he walked, "Your father doesn't like me coming. I won't sit down. If there is a place with less people, I'll leave after a few words with you."
"How could it be, Dad cares about you very much," He Chusan said, "and Xinxin has long wanted to..."
"Brother!" Said Cao Cao, and Cao Cao arrived. Xinxin, wearing a white bridesmaid dress, jumped out like a little white rabbit, grabbed He Chusan's other arm, and stared at Xia Liuyi with wide eyes, "Wow! This is my sister-in-law... uh!"
Her mouth was covered by He Chusan.
Xia Liuyi stared at He Chusan speechlessly.
"She shouted, not me..." He Chusan said helplessly. Before he finished speaking, Xinxin broke free from his palm, and said excitedly, "Sister-in-law! Hello! I'm my brother's younger sister, you can just call me Xinxin! Sister-in-law, you are so pretty! I can be counted. See you!"
Xia Liuyi stretched out his right hand towards her and smiled gently, "Hello, my name is Xia Liuyi."
He Chusan silently lowered his head and wiped the corners of his eyes - Xia Liuyi's left hand was pinched on his lower back, and the pain caused him to cry.
Xinxin held Xia Liuyi's hand in amazement, shook it heavily, and sighed incoherently, "Brother Liuyi, you are so handsome! How did you fall in love with my brother? I heard that you are a boss? Look You don't look like a boss, you are so young!"
He Chusan, whose lower back was about to be pinched off, couldn't bear to push Xinxin's shoulders away, "Go and accompany Mom and Dad to greet the guests."
"Okay, okay, don't disturb the world of the two of you," Xinxin smiled thiefly as she walked, pointing to the end of the hall, "There is an empty utility room over there, you can go in and talk privately. I'll help you watch the wind outside."
"Let's go." He Chusan drove her unceremoniously.
Watching Xinxin turn back and walk away one step at a time, he helplessly turned his head to face Xia Liuyi, and sincerely defended, "I really didn't teach her to talk nonsense."
Xia Liuyi sneered, "I don't dare to forgive you."
He Chusan smiled and looked around vigilantly. Seeing that there was a lot of excitement in the lobby, no one noticed the two of them. He quickly took Xia Liuyi's hand and quickly led the big guy into the remote and unoccupied clutter. went in the room.
He Chusan tightly locked the door and turned around. Xia Liuyi looked at him with a smile on his face.
"Okay, your brother Liuyi is here, what do you want to say?"
