Chapter 1075 Helpless
Chapter 1075 Helpless
As evening approaches, the cold wind blows and light rain falls.
Hong Kong Island, Central and Western District, Victoria Peak, Tiangong Villa.
This villa park built against the mountains, wrapped in lush greenery, quiet and spacious, symbolizing fame and wealth, was jointly developed by Huo Xian and Zhao Yingnan last year.
This is currently the most high-end private park on Hong Kong Island, and it will also be the most awesome in the future. It is called the Beverly Hills of Hong Kong.
There are only 38 villas in total, and all the owners who can live here are powerful and wealthy, super bosses who control the sky with one hand.
Halfway up the mountain, in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the entire Victoria Harbor, Hao Xian slowly exhaled the smoke and pressed down the cigar in his hand.
"Huh~" His voice was low, worried, and sounded a little depressed.
"I think this matter has nothing to do with Wesley. Judging from his behavior at the airport today, he was very natural and calm."
"Humph~"
On the sofa, Shao Xian snorted coldly and blew out two streams of smoke from his nostrils. He looked even more haggard, with sunken eye sockets, as if he had aged several years.
"It's hard to say. It's hard to paint a human being or a tiger. It's hard to know the person but not the heart. Mr. Huo, don't forget how unfeeling Meghan was to us before."
Shaoxian's tone was resentful, but he was not aimless.
Previously, Du Weiguo was united by them and forced to leave Hong Kong Island. Zhao Yingnan, a tiger bitch, immediately became furious.
In anger, regardless of the situation, he would rather give up his interests or even suffer losses, and resolutely severed almost all business cooperation with Huo Xian and the others.
As the old saying goes, in business, in the logic of businessmen like Huo Xian, interests come first. As long as the interests are sufficient, even enemies can cooperate.
Therefore, for them, Zhao Yingnan's move came too suddenly, which could be said to be a drain on the fire, catching everyone off guard.
Among them, Shaoxian suffered the most serious losses.
He had previously jointly established a cable television station with Zhao Yingnan, which became T VB, which became famous in later generations and had been glorious for decades.
Zhao Yingnan's shares accounted for as much as 40% at the time. She suddenly withdrew her shares unexpectedly, which almost killed Shao Xian.
In order to ensure his absolute dominance over the TV station, Shaoxian became extremely passive and had to buy back his shares.
In the end, in order to raise money, he not only sold the properties he had previously invested in, but also borrowed money from all the connections around him. He even mortgaged the property and took out loan sharks. Until now, he has not fully recovered.
This is not over yet. Brother Xiao Long’s new film, as well as Kunpeng Pictures’ recent plans for several new films, are not only wholly owned.
It was also decided to independently promote and distribute the film in Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and Southeast Asia, with Citi Warner responsible for the external affairs, and not involve Shaw Brothers Pictures.
You know, Kunpeng's productions are now the golden brand in the entire Asian film industry, and they are also a guarantee of box office.
Before that, Shao made several serious fortunes following Kunpeng's investment promotion, especially Xiao Long Ge's movies.
This is also the reason why he dared to start operating a TV station several years in advance.
At the moment, his situation was already not good, and his capital chain was about to be broken. At this juncture, Kunpeng took away the golden thigh again, which made it worse.
The house leaked and it rained continuously. Recently, a "ghost" serial killer appeared in the world who was specifically targeting him. The business seemed unsustainable and was about to collapse.
In view of this, Shaoxian was so resentful.
"Xian Shao, one code is another code, please calm down and don't talk with guns and sticks. Haven't we all collected money to help you plug your hole?
To be fair, Wesley is pretty good to us, and based on his personality, it is impossible for him to attack us directly. "
He Xian was also there, and to be fair, he came to Hong Kong Island specifically to see Du Weiguo.
Previously, He Xian and the others had joined forces to force the palace, and He Xian had been half-coerced to make up for the loss, and he had always been a little grudge.
Although he was born in Hong Kong Island, his main career is in Tai O.
Du Weiguo had helped him get out of the siege in New Garden before, and even took away his mortal enemy Ye Han, causing him to lose all his dignity.
He Xian has a clear grudge against him, and he always remembers Du Weiguo's good deeds.
"Hehehe~"
After hearing what He Xian said, Shao Xian laughed angrily, his tone became resentful, and his face turned a little red:
"He Xian, you said it quite easily. You recently devoured Lao Yetou's dog gambling plate in one gulp and your mouth was full of oil. Of course you will remember him well.
But what about me? Not to mention the TV station, that young man Ma Ning is now almost opening a theater to my door. This is cutting off my roots! "
This is true and not groundless.
Recently, Kunpeng Pictures has been making great moves. In addition to continuously establishing projects, preparing to produce new movies, and improving actor training schools, it is also intensively preparing to build independent theaters in Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan.
At present, 6 Kunpeng cinemas have been established, and several more are in the process of selecting sites for construction. The trend of rise is unstoppable.
No way, Kunpeng Pictures' cash flow is too abundant, it is so rich that there is no place to spend the money.
Brother Xiao Long's four consecutive movies have been box office hits, constantly breaking box office records in Hong Kong Island, and have helped Kunpeng Pictures earn hundreds of millions of net profits.
After selling their shares in the TV station and getting a large sum of money back, Xiao Ma Ge and Zhao Yingnan decided to build their own theater chain and release their own selfies.
As for Shaoxian, he started his career in theaters. This was his basic base. Now Kunpeng's actions were equivalent to a hoe digging into his lifeline, making him feel a chill to his bones.
"Xian Shao, you are somewhat exaggerating. Kunpeng Pictures plans to build several theaters in Hong Kong Island, and they have deliberately avoided your site. This is already quite polite."
The Treasure Ship King, who had been silent all this time, spoke up. He was in a similar situation to He Xian and felt a little guilty about Du Weiguo.
The Treasure Ship King has not yet been involved in the real estate industry in Hong Kong Island. His main business is ocean shipping in the open sea. Moreover, he is cooperating with Mo Lan and has relatively little interaction with Zhao Yingnan.
The most important point is that Bao Xian is also the least affected by the current serial murder case. Only one of his port dispatchers was victimized.
Seeing Baoxian jumping out to support Du Weiguo, Shaoxian instantly became furious:
"You can't stand and talk without hurting your back. You and Pattaya are working together like a charm and making money every day. It won't affect you at all, of course~~"
Seeing that he was biting someone like a mad dog, Huo Xian couldn't help but interrupted him:
"Okay, Shaoxian, please stop saying a few words. I have decided to shelve my real estate project in Wan Chai, and I plan to buy shares in your TV station first."
Upon hearing this, Shaoxian's eyes suddenly lit up. He no longer cared about being angry, patted his chest and promised:
"Really? Mr. Huo, how much share are you prepared to invest? 20%? 30%? This solves my urgent need, Lao Shao. Don't worry, I will definitely give you a suitable price~~"
Shao Xian was still young at the moment, and his internal strength was not yet high enough, so he acted a bit philistine. Huo Xian shook his head helplessly and said in a low tone:
"Xian Shao, let's put aside the matter of buying shares for now and talk about it later. Let's talk about the trouble at hand first."
Among the people, Huo Xian's stall is the largest, he is the oldest, and he is vaguely the leader.
Of course, he was also the most anxious at the moment, because he had suffered the greatest loss due to this "evil ghost" serial murder case.
More than a dozen company employees were murdered one after another, causing panic throughout the company.
At present, many key old employees have taken the initiative to resign. Making money is important, but it also requires life.
Even the investors of the Wan Chai real estate development project, which had just been negotiated with great difficulty, were so frightened that they withdrew their capital overnight and ran away.
It makes sense when you think about it. On the cusp of this crisis, who dares to be so bold as to cooperate with him? Aren't you afraid of being angered by the "fierce ghost"?
"I feel that this madman who goes around killing people was definitely not instigated by Wesley. He is not of such a character and there is no need to do this. I even feel that someone is deliberately sowing discord."
He Xian's unusually keen words came to fruition. Bao Xian nodded in agreement with a firm tone:
"Yes, my boss also believes in his character. Someone must be sowing discord."
Although Shao Xian was still a little unconvinced, he just frowned and finally refrained from refuting.
At this moment, Huo Xian was a little distracted. He had mixed feelings in his heart and sighed secretly. Things are really unpredictable.
Two years ago, when Du Weiguo met him for the first time, he was just a passionate, reckless young man, a chess piece in the hands of others.
Two years later, he suddenly became the chess player, while he was reduced to an insignificant background pawn on the chessboard played by others. After all, Huo Xian was not an ordinary person. He immediately adjusted his mentality, nodded and said:
"Well, I also believe in Wesley's character, but I just hope that this storm will end soon, otherwise, no one will be able to handle it."
Bao Xian patted his shoulder gently:
"Old Huo, don't worry. Isn't Wesley back already? With his extraordinary abilities, he will surely be able to find the real culprit soon and restore peace to Hong Kong Island."
"Dangdangdang~"
Just as Huo Xian was about to speak, there was a sudden and hasty knock on the door of the study.
"Enter!"
Huo Lili walked in quickly. After years of separation, she had become much more capable. She was dressed in a well-fitting professional attire and her hair was meticulously taken care of. She looked heroic.
"Father, dear uncles, news just came from the police station. In about three hours, another murder occurred in Kwun Tong. It is confirmed that it was also a "violent ghost" who committed the crime."
After hearing the news, all the big guys couldn't help but look nervous. Huo Xian frowned and his mouth went dry:
"Is this beast crazy? He committed murder in broad daylight?"
Huo Lili nodded: "Yes."
Shao Xian was so impatient at the moment that he couldn't hold his breath and asked eagerly:
"Whose family did the accident happen to?"
Huo Lili pursed her lips slightly: "I'm very sorry, Mr. Shao, the person who was killed today was a female reporter from your TV station."
"Fuck on the street! This damn beast!"
Shao Xian could no longer suppress the raging anger in his chest, so he slapped the coffee table hard and then collapsed on the sofa.
Huo Xian's anxious heart was relieved, he breathed a sigh of relief secretly, and his tone became more relaxed:
"It seems like this case really has nothing to do with Wesley. Otherwise, he would have returned to Hong Kong Island. This lunatic should restrain himself and not involve Ben Gary!"
He Xian's reaction was as sharp as ever: "Lily, is there any other news from the police force?"
"Yes, Mr. Wesley, who has just returned to Hong Kong Island, has already gone to Kwun Tong to investigate the crime scene in person."
When speaking, Huo Lili's face turned slightly red, especially when she mentioned Du Weiguo, her voice also trembled a little.
Time has passed, and she now knows that the difference between herself and Du Weiguo is like a chasm, and there is not even a trace of possibility left.
However, deep in her heart, Du Weiguo always firmly occupied an unshakable position and was irreplaceable.
He Xian seemed to breathe a sigh of relief: "That's good. Wesley is willing to go out personally. I believe this trouble will be solved soon."
Baoxian also added with emotion:
"Yes, Wesley has really not changed. He is still as sincere and righteous as before. As long as something happens to Hong Kong Island, he will not look back. He will definitely catch this beast out soon."
Shaoxian sighed: "Oh, I hope so~"
Hearing them all praising Du Weiguo without words, Huo Lili couldn't help but puff up her chest, her face turned red, and she showed a proud and proud expression.
Huo Xian frowned and thought for a long time, then suddenly put out the cigar butt in the crystal ashtray, and stood up suddenly:
"Come on, let's cross the sea immediately and find Wesley."
At this moment, Du Weiguo, whom Huo Lili missed so much, had already left the scene of the crime.
There were a total of four people sitting in the six special Land Rover vehicles. Lake was driving the car himself, and Kowloon Inspector Xiao Liao was sitting in the co-pilot.
In the back row, Du Weiguo was lazily leaning against the open window and smoking. The cold and wet night wind mixed with the cold rain hit his face like ice edges, but he felt nothing.
"Wesley, where are we going now? What do you want to do with this case next?"
Lu Yan, who was sitting next to him, raised his eyebrows and glanced at him. After being slightly confused, he asked softly.
Du Weiguo's eyes were always looking out the window far away, without looking back at all, or even moving his eyeballs.
His tone was lazy and a little perfunctory:
"I don't know what to do. Didn't Uncle Jiu start checking for clues on the bus? Let's wait for the news. If we are hungry, let's go home and eat first."
Lu Yan frowned and sneered coldly:
"Are you in the mood to eat again? If your guess is correct, this serial killer can not only become invisible, but also levitate, and there is even a black hand behind it. How can he find out what Feng Jiu is like based on that stubborn old man?
Wesley, what do you mean? Are you really helpless and unable to do anything, or are you deliberately trying to shirk it and want to let it go? "
"Ah~"
Du Weiguo finally turned his head, exhaled a long breath of smoke, flicked the cigarette butt away, and shook his head helplessly.
At this moment, there was a hint of tiredness that was hard to hide in his tone, and a hint of irritability that was hard to detect:
"Lu Yan, I am not a god. I am omnipresent and omnipotent. This guy can become invisible, act slickly and cunningly, and leave no trace of his actions.
The key is that this grandson only attacks ordinary people. I can barely protect myself now. As for the rest, I am really helpless. "
Du Weiguo didn't lie. This "violent ghost" once again made him feel powerless for a long time, and he had no good way to deal with it now.
But self-protection is definitely safe.
First of all, Night Dire and Joseph are both here. As long as this "bad ghost" dares to get close to within a few hundred meters, it will be locked by their mental induction ability immediately, and it is not difficult to control it.
After all, the invisibility ability of "Li Gui" is only optical invisibility, and it does not mean disappearing into thin air or becoming invisible in other dimensions.
Therefore, "Fierce Ghost" will definitely not be able to withstand the mental power of Joseph and Night Dire. As long as he dares to approach Baishawan Villa, it will be difficult for him to die even if he wants to.
This shows how powerful and practical skills telepathy and mental control are.
Secondly, as long as this guy dares to show malice towards Du Weiguo, or even any one of the Evil Gods, he will be sensed immediately. The danger sense of top experts cannot be blocked.
Especially Du Weiguo, his danger sensing ability has been solidified into a skill by System Dad, making it more sensitive and accurate.
Not to mention very clear and obvious hostility, even a slightly malicious gaze can be easily targeted to the source.
To sum up, there is absolutely no problem for Du Weiguo and the people around him to protect themselves.
This "fierce ghost" probably either knew the abilities of Du Weiguo and the Evil Gods very well, or the chess player behind him was very smart and avoided all the minefields.
At this moment, Tsuen Wan, Kwai Chung Pier.
On the sea, an old, wooden fishing boat equipped with a mechanical motor was drifting with the current. In the cabin, a tall and thin man was sending a message on the radio.
He looks to be in his 30s, probably of mixed Southeast Asian and white descent, with wheat-colored skin, black hair, deep facial features, and brown pupils. He is a bit handsome, but too thin, making him look a bit frail.
At this moment, the man's face was not looking good, he was pale and blue, he was wearing thick clothes and a thick blanket, and he was still shaking a little.
While he was rapidly controlling the radio with one hand, his free hand was unconsciously playing with a cold knife.
His fingers were long and nimble, and the knife seemed to be alive, spinning and jumping on his fingertips.
After a while, the man frowned and turned off the radio. He casually stuck the knife on the wooden board next to him, tightened the blanket around him, and picked up a brown paper bag that smelled of oil.
There was a whole shiny maroon roast goose in the paper bag. The man picked it up and gnawed it.
"Fuck you, the Evil God has already returned to Hong Kong Island. This old bastard, Marsar, actually lets me continue to kill people. This is clearly asking me to be used as cannon fodder. Sooner or later, I will kill you with my own hands!"
The man tore off a large mouthful of goose meat with his teeth and chewed it hard, with a fierce look in his eyes and mumbled to himself.
He spoke a very niche Southeast Asian dialect, fast and urgently.
This guy is a "fierce ghost" who can become invisible and kill people. His nickname in the dark world is Jellyfish.
