Chapter 20 020 [Close the case as soon as possible]

Everyone knows that what Li Wendi said is true, but those robbers are not so easy to catch. If things go wrong, the robbers may have AKs or even machine guns. How can the police's six-round pistol be a match for them?

"Catching robbers is our job, you just need to do your own thing." The tall man completely ignored Li Wendi and left with his men.

It was simply a fantasy for Li Wendi to let the police risk their lives to earn this money.

It turns out that the police have become so arrogant. No wonder even the rich people can’t tolerate them.

Contact the businesses that were robbed and put pressure on the police?
Li Wendi thought about it and decided to give up the idea. The reason was simple: it was none of his business. Why would he risk backstabbing the police? If the information was leaked, he would offend the entire police force in Tsim Sha Tsui.

Just make money honestly. The world is not good and you need to be low-key.

Li Wendi sighed slightly. This world is too chaotic and one could lose his life if he is not careful.

In the afternoon, Li Wendi took a look at the messy robbed jewelry store and then went to the Happy Tea House.

There is an old saying in Hong Kong: 'There are more gold shops than rice shops'.

Therefore, gold shop robberies often occur in Hong Kong, with dozens of cases every year, averaging several per month, with the value of the stolen goods ranging from hundreds of thousands to millions.

Li Wendi remembered that according to a report in a Hong Kong newspaper, Chow Tai Fook was robbed as many as six times in 91, and the loss of jewelry in one incident was as high as more than 6 million.

Room 202, F, Xingfu Tea House
As soon as Li Wendi entered the door, he saw a young man sitting upright, holding a magazine with a dark cover in his hand. He looked very ordinary, but the clothes he wore seemed to be well-fitting and luxurious. He was naturally the son of a wealthy family.

"Haha! Is this Mr. Li Wendi? Hello, I'm Chen Xingzhou." The square-faced young man stood up, extended his hand towards Li Wendi, with a smile on his face.

"Hello! Mr. Chen!" Li Wendi shook hands with Chen Xingzhou and sat down next to him.

The Chen family, to which Chen Xingzhou belongs, was the host of today's gold shop robbery, and they lost hundreds of thousands.

Li Wendi was naturally aware of Chen Xingzhou's purpose, and he was also happy to contact such a rich kid. After all, this kind of person controlled a large amount of resources and information channels in Hong Kong society, and perhaps he could get some useful information from Chen Xingzhou.

After sitting for a while, Li Wendi began to ask directly, "Mr. Chen asked me out because of the robbery, right?"

Speaking of robbery, hundreds of thousands of dollars is not a big problem for the wealthy Chen family, but they still want to recover the losses. Chen Xingzhou put away his smile and became very serious.

"Yes, Mr. Li, is there any way I can help? Money is not a problem." Chen Xingzhou said generously.

Li Wendi laughed and said, "Mr. Chen, you are joking. I heard that those gangsters have machine guns. My men are no match for them. We can only rely on the police for this kind of thing."

What a joke!
If a gangster fights a gangster with a gun, isn't that courting death?
Apart from a few more holes on his body, what else would be left? And if these people knew about it, Li Wendi would be retaliated against.

"I know, but these bandits stole goods worth hundreds of thousands, so they will definitely get rid of them. Mr. Li should be able to receive the news." Chen Xingzhou stared at Li Wendi and said.

Li Wendi thought about it. He had suggested to the police that they deal with the criminals before, and he was responsible for providing information. So he said thoughtfully, "I can help with the information, but it may be difficult to deal with the police. Even the riot police can't handle it."

"And Mr. Chen, aren't you afraid of being retaliated against by them?" Li Wendi reminded again.

Why are there so many robberies of gold shops in Hong Kong? First, the robbers have strong firepower, and second, the gold shop owners do not want to offend such desperate criminals. If something happens to their families, it will be more trouble than gain.

This encouraged the desperate criminals and let them know that even if they robbed the gold shop, the financiers would not dare to attack them by force.

Having said that, Chen Xingzhou immediately fell silent. Everyone has family, and being retaliated against is no joke.

However, Chen Xingzhou is not the son of the eldest branch of the Chen family, but the second branch. Now his family has fallen to the bottom and is in urgent need of turning the situation around, perhaps to gain some say in the family.

"Don't worry. If we can successfully catch this group of people, I am willing to give Mr. Li 5 yuan. As for the police, I will coordinate with them."

Chen Xingzhou felt that "the brave will die of overeating, and the timid will die of starvation" and that the bandits' revenge might not be directed at his second wife, so it was necessary to take a risk.

Li Wendi smiled. He was just offering help, and the information was provided by his subordinates. It was unlikely that the gangsters would look for him, so he naturally didn't care. He took it as an opportunity to make friends with the ambitious rich second generation.

"Okay, I'll tell my men to do it, but there may not be any news." Li Wendi changed the subject and said, "Mr. Chen can issue a bounty order, and that will definitely lead to the hiding place of the criminals."

There is a big disadvantage to issuing a bounty order, as it gives criminals a clear target for revenge.

Chen Xingzhou's expression changed slightly, "Mr. Li, if this happens, I won't be able to stand firm in the family."

Chen Xingzhou had thought about this method before. If he used it, his father and family would not tolerate him. This would be an act that completely disregarded the safety of his family.

"However, if Mr. Li is willing to issue a bounty in his own name, I am willing to give him another 5 yuan."

Li Wendi rolled his eyes and said, "Do you think I look like an idiot? Is 5 a lot of money? What if these desperate people shoot Guo Cuiting and Li Xiaonan? I will be guilty for the rest of my life."

What's more, it's not me who lost the money, so I can still gain status in the family.

"Mr. Chen, you are joking. I will find out the news for you. If there is any problem with the police, you must inform me in time. I don't want my brothers to work in vain."

"Okay!" Chen Xingzhou was also trying his luck. He didn't care about Li Wendi's reaction at all. He smiled and said, "Come on, I'll toast you a glass."

The next morning, Li Wendi asked Zhang Yan to notify all the brothers in the territory to look for the traces of the gang of gangsters. At the same time, he also visited Ma Yunhui, the boss of Sai Wan. Ma Yunhui thought that the money was easy to make and immediately agreed to help.

Under Chen Xingzhou's operation, Inspector Lin Jianmin actually took the initiative to find Li Wendi, saying that he wanted to discuss the gold shop robbery case with him.

"Inspector Lin, we meet again." Li Wendi seemed to have forgotten what happened last time and greeted Lin Jianmin in a friendly manner.

Lin Jianmin took a sip of tea and said with a look of disdain, "Stop talking nonsense. I hope the gold shop robbery case can be closed as soon as possible. You go find a few scapegoats and I'll take care of the rest."

Li Wendi smiled and said, "Inspector Lin is willing to pay for the Chen family's jewelry? That's more than 800,000 yuan. The inspector is really generous."

Lin Jianmin narrowed his eyes and sneered, "Don't play dumb with me. Who said that we can find the jewelry for the Chen family and solve the case?"

There were so many jewelry robberies in the area, how could he possibly recover all the stolen goods? Besides, he didn't really want to provoke those desperate criminals.
