Reverse Rebirth 1990

Chapter 983 [The Uncrowned King] Part 999
In the vault——
Song Zhichao looked at the enraged Yan Tong coldly.

Looking at the collapsed golden throne, Yan Tong suddenly squatted down, hugged his head and began to cry.

"Stop talking... Please, stop talking!" Yan Tong cried.

Song Zhichao sighed and stepped forward, trying to help him up.

Yan Tong cried even harder.

Who would have thought that Yan Tong, the "Four Detectives" who used to be all-powerful in Hong Kong, would be squatting on the ground crying at this moment.

Men's hearts are fragile.

Even though he was 70 years old, even though he came to Thailand from Hong Kong, that vulnerable spot was never poked.

But today, Song Zhichao hit the most vulnerable place in Yan Tong's heart.

Yan Tong once watched the Hong Kong movie "The Legend of [-] Million Detective Lei Luo".

In the movie, he is portrayed as a sinister and cunning villain.

Yan Tong scoffed at this.

That's right, perhaps compared to the other four major detectives, Yan Tong was a little cunning when he did things, but it was all forced by the situation and the way of the world.

Let me ask, who is born to be a big villain?
On the contrary, Yan Tong in real life also had noble sentiments at the beginning, unlike Lei Luo, he became a policeman for food at first.Yan Tong is an educated person. He graduated from St. Paul's Co-educational High School in Hong Kong, and even almost became a college student after graduation.

Back then, there were many policemen who could not read. Even Lei Luo stuttered when he read a newspaper. Only Yan Tong could speak English fluently.

It is undeniable that it was really easy to get along in the police force with a degree. Yan Tong didn't even have a military uniform, but a plainclothes as soon as he joined the police force. The reason is that he can read and even understand English.

But this does not mean that you will be able to soar into the sky in the police world and it will be smooth sailing.At that time, Yan Tong was not called "Yan Ye", let alone "Inspector Yan". He was called "A Tong" or "Xiao Yan", or even "Yan SIR".

At that time, Yan Tong was very green and idealistic - being a policeman was also to punish evil and stand up for justice.

He remembers clearly that he belonged to the West Kowloon Crime Squad at that time, and the first time he went to the police was to sweep up the "zihua stalls" there in Yau Ma Tei.

Zihua, also known as Huahui, is a popular gambling method in Hong Kong.

The method of gambling is roughly as follows: The dealer will pre-open a list with 36 names or 36 items.Every time you gamble, draw out one of them, cover the paper or bamboo card with your name on it, and put it in a conspicuous place for gamblers to place their bets.After a while, unlock the puzzle and pay out.The payout is generally around [-] per one.

At that time, Yan Tong was very excited, and sat in the police car with a group of guys waiting. After the informant sent a signal, he rushed directly to the "Zihua stall" under the leadership of his boss "Vulture".

Immediately, the restaurant was in a panic, and many gamblers fled in embarrassment. Yan Tong thought that the person who organized the gambling would also escape, but what Yan Tong didn't expect was that the organizer was not afraid of them policemen at all. On the contrary, With a cigarette in his mouth, he asked their boss "Vulture" with a smile: "Sir, do you want some tea?"

What do you mean?
At that time, Yan Tong's first reaction was that the organizer was really thick-skinned, and he seemed to be okay after being caught.

But what made Yan Tong even more unexpected was that their boss "Vulture" actually said: "There are many people, and there is a lot of tea money!"

Then, Yan Tong saw that the organizer was holding a cigarette in his mouth, grabbing a bunch of banknotes from many hanging baskets, stacking them neatly, and handing 3 yuan to his boss, "Vulture": "This Just a little bit, if it’s not enough, just open your mouth!”

Just like that, Yan Tong watched helplessly as these plainclothes evacuated from the gambling stalls, and those gamblers who had originally fled gathered around and continued to gamble.

And their boss, Vulture, took the money and started giving them "benefits" in the car.

It was the first time Yan Tong went to the police, and he received a red envelope of 500 Hong Kong dollars.

At that time, Yan Tong's monthly salary as a plainclothes worker was only 170 Hong Kong dollars.

……

Yan Tong didn't know why the world was like this?
He thought that collecting red envelopes was bribery, and he thought it was wrong to do so, so on the second day, Yan Tong reported the 500 yuan he received, found Liu Fu, the Chinese inspector in charge of them, and told Liu Fu Fuhui reported what happened yesterday.

The fat man Liu Fu said that what Yan Tong said was very good and what he did was right, and then asked Yan Tong to go back and wait for news, saying that he would deal with this matter seriously.

Yan Tong was very happy and felt that there was still justice in the police force.

Yan Tong went back, and three days later, he was transferred from Yau Ma Tei, where there was a lot of oil and water, to Yuen Long, where nothing shit happened.

At that time, Yuen Long was located in the most northwest part of Hong Kong, so it was called "countryside" by Hong Kong people and "frontier" by Hong Kong police.

Often when a policeman is transferred to Yuen Long, he is called "distributed to the frontier", and the punishment is second only to "guarding the pond".

Yan Tong didn't understand, why was he sent to the frontier by the chief when he clearly reported the corruption himself?

It took Yan Tong a long time to realize that Liu Fu, the chief inspector of the Chinese police force, was the biggest corrupt criminal and the biggest boss among the Chinese police, and the vulture he reported was actually his younger brother.

During those hard days in Yuen Long, Yan Tong finally figured it out. The world is like this, either black or white. The locals look for piglets or help others share pork, or you will also be greedy and become the big boss among them.

Yan Tong in "[-] Million Detectives" has been the leader of the police force from the very beginning, but who knows that in reality Yan Tong has experienced the choice between good guys and bad guys, and the confrontation between good cops and bad cops.

Now, after so many years, Yan Tong came to Thailand from Hong Kong. On the surface, Yan Tong is enjoying his current life. He is rich, has a company, and has both sons and daughters—but when he thinks about those people he has harmed in the middle of the night, there are still... For those who lost their families because of themselves, his heart trembled.

The older people are, the more they believe in ghosts and gods. Especially in Thailand, a country that worships ghosts and gods the most, Yan Tong can't help but be subtly influenced by the locals.

How many sins I have committed, how many sins I will suffer in the future.

Originally, these were all hidden in Yan Tong's heart, and he hid them well, but now they were exposed by Song Zhichao's few words.

The old Yan Tong couldn't bear it any longer, so he collapsed on the spot.

……

Song Zhichao looked at the weeping Yan Tong quietly, until his mood stabilized, and then he said, "You know what you have done, and now is your last chance to redeem yourself."

Yan Tong raised his head, glanced at Song Zhichao, his eyes turned red, and said, "What do you want me to do?"

Song Zhichao said flatly: "It's very simple, hoard gold with me."

Yan Tong smiled, but his smile was uglier than crying, "Gold again?" Pointing to the gold bricks and gold bars around him, "What are you doing with so much gold? Building a house? Building a palace?"

Song Zhichao squatted down, stared at Yan Tong, and said, "If I told you that Thailand will soon have a financial crisis, what would you think?"

Yan Tong: "..."

He suddenly laughed, looking a little crazy: "Is there anything wrong? Thailand will have a financial crisis? Now Thailand's economy is so good, real estate is booming, tourism is booming, and Thai people are soft on making money—how can there be a crisis?"

Seeing that Yan Tong didn't believe it, Song Zhichao didn't explain it directly, but turned around and walked to one of the pyramids built with gold bars, then looked back at Yan Tong and said, "Do you think this pyramid is beautiful?"

Yan Tong: "..."

I don't understand what Song Zhichao meant by saying that.

Suddenly, Song Zhichao pulled out a gold bar from the bottom of the pyramid, but with a loud bang, the whole pyramid collapsed instantly.

Song Zhichao held the extracted gold bar and threw it at Yan Tong.

With a clatter, the gold bar landed in front of Yan Tong.

Yan Tong looked at the collapsed pyramid behind Song Zhichao, and then at the gold bar thrown by Song Zhichao in front of him, his eyes were confused.

Song Zhichao said lightly at this time: "Any high-rise building has a support point - as long as the support point is removed, it will collapse in an instant."

After a pause, Song Zhichao looked at Yan Tong sharply and said, "Thailand's economy is the same. You can see that it is prosperous on the surface, but in fact all this is an illusion --- as long as you take out a gold bar, it can collapse instantly. , and this gold bar in Thailand is - foreign exchange!"
