Siheyuan: Why is my crossing so ugly?

The sun sets and rises again, time is like a rushing river, never stopping.

The following day, the entire Hong Kong Island was calm, with singing and dancing, as if nothing had happened.

The disappearance of Chinese Chief Inspector Fengjiu, the Spider's Nest City on Bowl Lane, and the vicious arson case on Lantau Island, all these news were suppressed and ordinary people had no idea about them at all.

In fact, it doesn’t matter even if you know it.

Most of the little people in the city don’t care much about the news of these big guys. It is too far away from their lives and they can’t get in touch with them at all.

Little people have their own way of living. When they open their eyes every day, they have to rush around for three meals a day.

They have long been exhausted from making a living, so how could they have the energy to care about the news about these big guys? At most, they would talk about them after dinner.

Du Weiguo still has not shown up and has not appeared in the public eye. Everyone knows that he is in Hong Kong Island, but no one knows where he is.

Now all the influential people in Hong Kong are in a panic, whether they are members of the Landlords Association or not.

"Well, well, Hu Laosan, you are much better than Hu Laowu. You finally have some conscience and know how to take the initiative to honor my mother."

At this moment, in the Seaview Apartment, Lin Jiaojiao was holding a large maroon pig trotter in both hands, chewing it until her mouth was full of oil.

Hu Sandai’s braised pig’s trotters is a northern cooking method that is relatively rare in Hong Kong Island. It is not very sweet and has a salty taste, which is more to her taste.

Hu San is a big chatterbox, and he enjoys bickering even more than Lin Jiaojiao:

"Tsk, Lin Jiaojiao, eat your elbow! Who the hell are you trying to be so great with? In terms of age, you should be calling me Third Brother."

"Bullshit! I was born seven years earlier than you. According to human age, you should call me Sister Jiao!"

Lin Jiaojiao sneered, and the oil and meat splashing out of her mouth almost sprayed onto Hu San's face.

"Fuck! Lin Jiaojiao, you're so talkative! You're spewing nonsense everywhere, it's disgusting. Have you become stupid in the mountains? You don't even want to be the prince even if you put on the dragon robe."

Hu San quickly dodged back, his face full of disgust.

"Hu Laosan, are you itching for trouble?"

Lin Jiaojiao's face suddenly darkened, a cold light flashed in her eyes, and she glanced at him coldly.

"Ha, who are you trying to scare? I, the Third Brother, have seen all kinds of battles. How can I be afraid of a little kitty like you? How about we go to the rooftop and practice together?"

Although he would definitely lose if they really fought, Hu San would not show any sign of fear.

Lin Jiaojiao instantly flew into a rage:
"Hu San, I'm really giving you face. If I don't beat the shit out of you today, even if you poop cleanly, I'll do it."

"Come on, come on, whoever goes up to the rooftop is a grandson!"

Hu San was yelling loudly, but his butt was welded to the chair without moving at all. Of course, Lin Jiaojiao didn't take it seriously and never put down the pig trotter in her hand.

"What a commotion, Du Da, why did you call a conspicuous guy like Hu Lao San here?"

Sitting on the sofa in the living room, Miss Hu withdrew her gaze and complained with disgust on her face.

Du Weiguo, however, watched them bickering with great interest and said with a smile:
"Isn't this good? It's lively. Besides, with Third Brother arguing with her for you, won't you be free and have some peace and quiet for a while?"

"What? You call this quiet? Their noise is making my head hurt." Miss Hu's lips were curled so much that a soy sauce bottle could be hung on them.

At this time, Lin Jiaojiao had been really irritated by Hu San. Not only did she put down the pig's hoof in her hand, but she also stretched out her sharp nails, as if she was really going to attack.

"Brother-in-law, didn't you say you wanted me to help you with something? What is it?"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Hu San quickly got up and fled, and even found a fairly decent excuse.

"Well, Third Brother, I do need your help with something. Come, sit down and talk slowly."

Du Weiguo smiled and didn't expose him. He handed him a cigarette and helped him light it.

Hu San was very pleased with his attitude. He glanced at Lin Jiaojiao with pride and patted his chest, saying:
"Just tell me what's going on. Don't worry, I promise to make it clear to you."

"That's right. I can definitely trust Third Brother to do things for me."

Du Weiguo nodded:

"It's like this. I recently sent people to Hong Kong Island to investigate a case, but they are all ordinary people. They will definitely not be able to handle a big situation, so I want to ask the third brother to take charge of the situation for them in secret."

Upon hearing this, Hu San became even happier and felt proud to be let make the decision. He felt particularly proud to be valued by Du Weiguo.

"No problem. To be honest, Third Brother is also an expert in investigating cases. Earlier, I helped the Bincheng Police Station~~"

"Du Da, it's not appropriate for you to let Hu Laosan, a jack of all trades, get involved in such an important matter, isn't it?"

Miss Hu interrupted his boasting directly, her tone somewhat worried.

"Hu Laowu, what do you mean? Are you deliberately trying to humiliate Third Brother in front of outsiders? How can I be a jack of all trades? I have really handled a case before."

Hu San was both angry and anxious. He was angry that his own sister didn't believe him, and he was anxious because he was worried that Lin Jiaojiao would laugh at him. He was also afraid that she would hear him, so he could only speak in a low voice.

"Hu Laosan, you are just a jack of all trades, what face do you have? Now that Du brat calls me auntie, who the hell is an outsider?"

Unexpectedly, Lin Jiaojiao had such amazing hearing that he tried to speak as quietly as possible, but was still heard. She even threw a piece of snow-white pork leg bone towards him.

"Swish!" With Lin Jiaojiao's strength and accuracy, an ordinary bone in her hand is no less powerful than a flying axe.

"Fuck! This crazy woman!" Hu San quickly dodged.

"Pah!" The next second, the pig bones were smashed into pieces by Miss Hu's slap.

Just from this small and unspoken detail, it is not difficult to see the fighting power ranking of the three of them. Hu San is at the bottom, and Miss Hu is the strongest, but of course it is only temporary.

Miss Hu shook her hands in disdain and said in a low voice with a dark face:

"Lin Jiaojiao, you are so disgusting! If you keep making trouble, I will cut you!"

"Humph, Hu Laowu, you don't have to show off. Do you dare to ask the same question in two days?"

Lin Jiaojiao snorted coldly, her eyes gleaming and her tone sounding particularly tough.

With sufficient food supplies, her injuries have healed rapidly in the past two days and she is not far from recovery. In full condition, she should be able to surpass Miss Hu.

Upon hearing this, Du Weiguo couldn't help but turn his head and glance at her. As a result, Lin Jiaojiao's resentment that had been suppressed for a long time completely erupted.

"What? You want to beat me up too? Come on, hit me!"

She ripped the plate in front of her into pieces like paper, threw it hard on the ground, and roared:

"Yes, you are all our own people, and I am the only outsider. You are targeting me everywhere. Why don't you just attack me together and beat me to death!"

Seeing Lin Jiaojiao throwing a tantrum like a shrew, Du Weiguo was stunned at first, then he chuckled and shook his head:

"Brother San, let's go and get down to business. I'll take you to meet some people who are in charge of the matter."

He could tell at a glance that Lin Jiaojiao was acting, and he would not cooperate with the performance. He estimated that after he left, she would no longer have the desire to perform.

"Hey, let's go."

Hu San was very smart and naturally saw that Lin Jiaojiao was pretending to be crazy and throwing a tantrum. He smiled and gave her a meaningful look.

Yuen Long, it was still the spare warehouse where Mao Aiyi moved the goods. When Du Weiguo and his friends arrived, the City Hunter trio had already arrived.

In addition to them, Pengzai was also there. After all, in order to investigate a case, the police's assistance was often needed.

As early as in Lantau Island, Miss Hu had secretly checked Pengzai's brain and confirmed that there was no problem with his loyalty.

This is necessary. As Du Weiguo's status increases, he becomes more suspicious.

Especially since a landlord association that was clearly on the opposite side of him suddenly emerged in Hong Kong Island, he no longer trusted anyone.

"This is Third Brother, the person in charge of this case. Third Brother is extremely skilled and has great powers. If you encounter any problems that cannot be solved during the investigation, you can look for him."

Hearing Du Weiguo praising him like that, Hu San's face immediately flushed and his chest puffed out.

"Third brother, this is Makura Yukihide, Makura Xiang, and Meng Bo. They are the three people handling the case. This is Chen Xianpeng, a plainclothes inspector from Yau Tsim Mong, assisting in the case."

Du Weiguo introduced each other briefly and after everyone greeted each other, he immediately got to the point:

"Okay, now that everyone is introduced, Makimura Yukihide, first give Third Brother a detailed introduction to this case."

"Yes." After bowing, Makimura Yukihide immediately introduced clearly:

"Recently, a large-scale secret society has emerged in Hong Kong Island. Sir has initially named it the Landlords' Association. Currently, it has been discovered that the organization is located in a base on Bowl Lane~~" After listening to Makimura Yukihide's introduction, Hu San frowned and pondered for a long time before speaking in a deep voice:

"Have you found out the identity of the guard who was poisoned and silenced in the Spider's Nest City?"

Oh, I didn't realize that Third Brother is actually an expert? Du Weiguo was somewhat surprised. Just from the fact that he could start questioning from this clue, he was not a complete layman.

"I checked, Third Brother. These people are all 'blacks' who are not on record. However, they all have the same characteristics."

Autopsy is an official matter, so Pengzi took the initiative to answer this question, using standard Mandarin, which he learned in the past two years.

Hu San immediately asked: "What are the characteristics?"

"They have all received rigorous military training and are in very good physical condition. Judging from their physical appearance, these people should have come from the north in the past two years."

Hu San asked again:

"Since they all came from the north, there must be relatives or friends among them. At the very least, they must be from the same hometown or fellow soldiers. Can you further confirm their identities?"

"Yes." Pengzi gave a firm answer, but then changed the subject:
"However, if we want to confirm the identities of these guards, we can only do so by visiting and investigating them. We also need to make public the photos of the deceased, which is not only time-consuming, but will also alert the suspects. This case~~"

Hu San raised his hand to interrupt him:

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

"I see. A secret investigation, right? And this landlord has considerable influence in Hong Kong Island. It is estimated that they have already infiltrated the police station."

"Yes, sir, I have the same concern." Pengzi nodded.

"What about Chief Chinese Detective Fengjiu? Can we confirm whether he is alive or dead now?" Hu San immediately shifted his attention to another clue.

"No, the fire was caused by cluster incendiary bombs. It is basically of no value in collecting evidence."

As he spoke, Pengzi's eyes flashed with an unconcealable sadness.

This was not an act, he was really sad and had secretly cried several times. After all, Uncle Jiu was the one who brought him into the industry and personally promoted him from a patrolman to a plainclothes officer.

The kindness of Jianba in recognizing and supporting me is like a rebirth.

Hu San naturally noticed Pengzai's emotional changes, but he ignored it. At this moment, he entered a state that Du Weiguo had never seen before, which was so serious that it was a little strange.

"Then who is Fengjiu most familiar with?"

"Well, Uncle Jiu doesn't have many friends. Apart from his niece Xiaomei, I'm the only one."

Hu San was slightly surprised, but his train of thought did not stop:

"Okay, then we'll start with you, Pengzi, and check all the places you know Fengjiu would go, has been to, or might be hiding."

"Third brother, do you think Uncle Jiu is not dead?" Pengzi asked tentatively with some excitement.

Hu San nodded, his tone firm:
"After all, he is a descendant of Maoshan, and he has developed the ability of clairvoyance. It is not so easy for him to be silenced. Even if he dies, he will not be burned to death at home in frustration."

After a pause, he added:
"Even if Fengjiu is really dead, we have to investigate as if she is not dead. This clue is the most direct and important, and we must not give up."

"Yes, Third Brother, I understand." Infected by Hu San's serious tone, Pengzi replied solemnly.

After hearing this, Du Weiguo started to look at Hu San with a new respect. This guy wasn't bragging, he really had handled cases before, and at least there was nothing wrong with his thinking and logic.

Wow, it's really a blind cat that catches a dead mouse. Du Weiguo felt a little emotional.

Originally, his idea was very simple. He just wanted Hu San to bring the Yuan brothers and sisters to provide some necessary high-end military support to Makimura Yukihide and others.

"Pengzi, I will investigate Fengjiu's clue with you."

Having said this, he turned to Makimura Yukihide and the others and ordered in Japanese without hesitation:

"Masumura Yukihide, the three of you go and track down the Spider Nest City route. Aren't there more than twenty passages? Then check them one by one.

Anyway, this place has been exposed, so you don't need to cover it up anymore, just investigate directly, using the identity of MI6."

"Uh~" Upon hearing this, Makimura Yukihide was stunned and subconsciously turned his head to look at Du Weiguo.

According to the original plan, the three of them were the main force in the secret investigation. Now, not only do they have to conduct an open investigation, but they also have to impersonate MI6. This is a huge change.

Du Weiguo smiled: "Third brother is the person in charge of this case. His orders are my opinions."

"Hey! I see."

Makimura Yukihide responded in a deep voice. Not only was he not frustrated at all, he was even a little excited. Meng Bo and Makimura Kaori were the same, their eyes were full of eagerness to try.

Being able to investigate cases openly and honestly using an official identity is the ultimate dream of all private detectives.

"Okay, Pengzi, you list the places Fengjiu might go first, and Makimura Yukihide, you guys list~~"

At this moment, Hu San had already entered the working state, and orders were being issued one after another.

"Third brother, I'm leaving Hong Kong Island soon. I'll leave this case of the Landlord Association to you."

Du Weiguo suddenly found himself somewhat redundant and could only stand up and say goodbye.

Hu San nodded at him solemnly, his tone extremely serious, completely devoid of his usual playfulness:

"Okay, I'll do my best."

"Tsk, the unreliable Third Brother suddenly became so serious. Damn, I'm still a little uncomfortable with it."

Du Weiguo muttered to himself as he drove away alone.

To be honest, Du Weiguo was not worried that Hu San would mess things up, because the power he had at his disposal was terrifyingly strong.

In addition to the City Hunter trio and Pengzai, who are the visible forces, there are also Yuan Ying, Yuan Qianye, and Pama who are always ready to be deployed by him.

Gibson is familiar with Hu San, so there won't be any resistance from the official side. In addition, Du Weiguo also plans to ask Sergei and Nim to come over temporarily to help.

Anyway, idle is idle.

After all, it was a bit awkward for Meng Bo and the other three Japanese guys to pretend to be MI6, and with the addition of two big-nosed foreigners, the credibility was completely raised.

The key is that Nim and his men are not just for show, they are real ace agents who will never be a drag no matter where they are.

As for military force, there is no need to worry. Shota, Kagura, and Kamishiro are also in Hong Kong Island and can provide support when necessary.

When these ruthless characters come together, they form an extremely terrifying force that is enough to turn the world upside down.

At the same time, a semi-new 300-ton trawler was cruising in the West Lamma Channel near Lamma Island.

At this moment, there were several people sitting in the cabin, all of them were members of the Landlords Association, but none of them were wearing masks at the moment.

"Alex, you should return home immediately. That building and the bar are your property. Your identity cannot withstand investigation and must have been exposed by now."

The person who spoke was a wealthy middle-aged man named Li, but he looked a little exasperated at this moment.

"Returning home? I'll probably be tortured into a secret prison by MI6 as soon as I get off the plane. Those spineless people will be very happy to use me to gain credit from the God of Death."

Alex was a bald, white old man, but he was very strong. He was holding a cigar in his mouth, and there was a gleam of light in his narrow eyes.

The middle-aged man surnamed Li was so anxious that his eyes turned red:
"Then you can go to Citibank, America, or Africa. Anyway, you can't stay in Hong Kong Island anymore. Once he finds us, we'll be doomed."

"Heh~" Alex sneered and said jokingly:
"Bai Ze, you think he hasn't discovered you yet, but don't forget that I bought that building from you, and even the secret passage was built by you.

Do you think that with the power of the evil spirit, since he can find me, he can't find you? Haha, how about we go to Africa together to play with black girls? "

Bai Ze is the code name of the middle-aged man surnamed Li in the organization. When he heard this, his face turned pale instantly and cold sweat poured down.

"Pull over the street! Stop making sarcastic remarks. What should we do now?"

Alex exhaled smoke:

"Didn't the prophet say that if we can hold out for a week, the Sha-God will be unable to protect himself and will no longer have time to care about us."

There was an incomprehensible certainty in his tone.

A thin man wearing gold-rimmed glasses beside him immediately asked doubtfully:

"Alex, do you believe in the Prophet that much?"

Hearing this question, Alex's eyes were filled with an indescribable enthusiasm:

"Of course, you have no idea what a prophet is?" (End of this chapter)
