I'm catching tricks in the Hong Kong variety show world

Collecting old newspapers and stamps can only be considered commonplace.

Su Hao heard that there are people who collect movie tickets, and there are also people who collect Category III movie tapes. Some rich people have more special hobbies, and it is said that there are people who collect ancient corpses.

As for the wealthy playboys sleeping with female celebrities, that can only be regarded as a routine operation, nothing more than basic sex.

This is the same as some otakus in the previous life who liked to build a large-capacity hard drive on the computer's E disk to collect [study materials], and Su Hao was not surprised.

Uncle Gui moved the old wooden box to the counter, "Which year's newspaper do you want to read?"

Su Hao thought for a moment and said, "It doesn't matter what year it is. I'm more interested in some weird old news that happened in Hong Kong Island. You can help me pick it out."

Uncle Gui selected in the wooden box for a while, and took out a document bag with post notes. He opened the document bag and took out a folded old newspaper. "Then this will be fine. You young people must be right about it." Interested in Tan Leg Chen’s story.”

Su Hao took the old newspaper and glanced at it, then muttered something to himself, "Tan Zuo Chen?"

Then he stuffed the newly bought cigarettes into his pocket, took another can of Coke from the refrigerator, moved a small matzah and sat down on the doorstep, intending to read the newspaper to pass the time.

Some of the information that he usually doesn't easily collect might be able to help him a lot in the future.

Regarding this mysterious comprehensive world, Su Hao felt that he had a good understanding of it after having many movie memories of his previous life. The case of the ghost mother in Kowloon Walled City that just ended hit him hard in the face.

The uncle next to him moved the high stool to the door at some point and sat next to Su Hao. He smoked a cigarette and introduced him sadly: "You young people may not know who Tan Zuochen is. We are here." People today are very familiar with this name."

"Oh, Uncle Gui, please elaborate."

"Do you know about the Double Red Stick?"

"Double red stick?"

Su Hao thought for a while, "Isn't this the title of the top thug in a gang? Uncle Gui, do you still know this?"

"Humph."

Uncle Gui was proud with a hint of dissatisfaction, as if he had been looked down upon.

A stream of smoke blew out of his nose, causing a pair of cloudy eyes to become blurred, as if they were caught in a previous memory.

"Did you know that your uncle was also a member of a gang before? The brothers in the gang also gave me a majestic nickname, Kuai Dao Gui. I was less than 20 years old at the time. I held a butcher's knife and fought alone. You can pick three bad guys from a rival gang and still escape unscathed."

Uncle Gui patted his chest proudly.

Su Hao's eyes fell on the other person's thin figure, and he couldn't connect the [Kuai Dao Gui] with the noble uncle in front of him.

However, he heard an unusual hidden message from this nickname, "Uncle Gui, have you been in a gang before?"

Uncle Gui snorted again, "That was 39 years ago, when Hong Kong Island had not yet returned to China, and there were underworlds all over the place. The children at the bottom had no money to go to school. At such a young age, they could only go out to support their families, and they had no skills, so they could only go to work to provide food. Some gangs work as minions to make ends meet.”

"Besides, the environment was like that at that time. You always know the stories of the four detectives, right? Even the police system is colluding with the underworld. Ordinary people have no choice but to join gangs if they want not to be bullied. You have a backer at least, otherwise you go out Even if you set up a street stall, people will come to you to collect protection fees, three times a day, and you won’t even make enough money to hand over.”

Uncle Gui paused here.

Chapter 48 The whereabouts of the double red stick

Su Hao suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the other party was neither humble nor arrogant at all when he came to collect protection money from Wu Fei a few days ago. It turned out that he could be regarded as a senior on the road.

Uncle Gui Xu caught a glimpse of the expression on Su Hao's face, "The two gangsters who came to my place to collect protection money a few days ago looked like the lowest level gangsters to me. Even if you weren't here at that time, I wouldn't care at all. Panic."

"The really powerful gangs are all gone now, and the national conditions are different. Even before the handover, those big gangs were eyeing prosperous areas like Causeway Bay. Who would look at the poor and run-down Kowloon City area?"

"As long as it occupies one street in Causeway Bay, the annual income will far exceed the income of all the sites in Kowloon City."

"What kind of big gang is coming to collect protection money from me?"

As mentioned before, there are only 4 administrative districts in Hong Kong Island among the [-] districts in Hong Kong, namely Central and Western District, Eastern District, Southern District and Wan Chai District.

Causeway Bay spans Wan Chai District and Eastern District, with Tsing Fung Street Flyover in the east and Canal Road Flyover (Gooseneck Bridge) in the west.

The famous Undersea Tunnel, Victoria Park, and MTR Tin Hau Station are all located in Causeway Bay, which is the most prosperous area on the entire Hong Kong Island.

It is far from comparable to the dilapidated and old Kowloon Peninsula.

After speaking, Uncle Gui took a disdainful breath.

Su Hao pointed at the newspaper and asked, "Then Tan Zuchen in this newspaper is your gang's double bonus?"

"No, they belong to a rival gang."

Uncle Gui took a puff of his cigarette and began to reminisce about the past, "It was a small gang, nestled in Kowloon City. The whole gang had less than 500 people in total. It only had 3 streets in its territory. Even the gang I stayed in had There are more than 2000 people, do you think he is small?"

"Tan Zuochen is the only Shuanghuahonggang in the history of their gang. It is said that he came from Lu Province in the north. He came to join his relatives and was introduced to this small gang by his old cousin. Don't you think that Shuanghuahonggang Are those movies and TV novels worthless? Let me tell you, of all the gangsters in Hong Kong Island combined, there are less than this number of people who have won the title of Double Red Stick?"

Uncle Gui stretched out a hand and shook it.

Su Hao asked: "Less than 50?"

"Less than 5, you are really a cover-up."

Uncle Gui didn't even come back for a breath, he almost started coughing due to Su Hao's words.

Su Hao scratched his hair in embarrassment, "Uncle Gui, you also know that I'm not from that era, so don't let me guess, just tell me the answer directly."

"Is it really so difficult to give birth to a double red stick at that time?"

Uncle Gui snorted again, "What do you think?"

"Red stick refers to a very capable thug in a gang. There are not many such people in a gang. The title of red stick only needs to be recognized by the gang's bosses and brothers."

"The Double Flower Red Stick is different. It means that among all the gangs at the same time, even if it is just one of the most capable gangs, other gangs will be convinced? Doesn't this increase the ambition of others and destroy one's own prestige? If you want to win the title of Double Flower Red Stick, you must make it public Let's set up an arena and defeat ten red sticks sent by other gangs in a row to gain recognition."

Uncle Gui took another puff of his cigarette and said in a low tone: "Tan Jiuchen's gang just crossed the ring and defeated ten red sticks in a row. Their kicks were extremely strong, and they opened and closed with great force. , ordinary people were kicked out by him without getting close, with injuries ranging from fractures to vomiting blood and internal injuries."

"It's a pity that this guy belongs to someone else's gang."

This is why Uncle Gui is not in a good mood.

Su Hao blinked, "Your gang is in Kowloon City, and the other gang has a double bonus. Doesn't it mean that they will start to grab territory and encroach on your sphere of influence?"

Uncle Gui rolled his eyes, "You don't have to say that? Therefore, Tan Zuochen must die, at least make him disabled, or beat him until he quits the gang, or even worse, find a big gang that can cover him."

"That day, several of our gangs gathered together more than 200 brothers with knives and sticks. All of them were good at fighting. We used his old watch as bait to hook him out and block him in a small alley. Unfortunately, the gun was very heavy. Loyalty, unwilling to quit the gang and change flags, in the end, a melee started, and I was one of the 200 people at the time."

"But I was lucky. I huddled behind and saw Tan Zuochen like a loach in the quagmire. Oh no, it should be a ferocious gar. He kicked down more than 50 of our brothers with just one pair of legs. In the end We tried our best and were knocked to the ground by our wolf pack tactics, but every brother present admired Tan Zuochen's bravery and loyalty, even though we were opponents at the time."

Su Hao was unknowingly attracted by Uncle Gui's story, and the cigarette burned all the way to the butt without even noticing.

"Finally?"

"at last……"

Uncle Gui looked up at the sky, "In the end, our boss may feel that it is dishonorable to defeat one person with 200 people, or he may admire the other party's loyalty and bravery, or he may want to use it for his own use and leave a way out for himself. After checking that no one of the more than 50 fallen brothers was seriously injured, he broke one of his hamstrings on the spot, forced him to swear that he would never step into the world again, and then let him go."

The cigarette butt in Su Hao's hand fell to the ground, and he thought of a possibility, "Where is Tan Zuochen now? Is he still in Kowloon Walled City?"

Uncle Gui suddenly laughed loudly and patted Su Hao on the shoulder, "I thought you young people were not interested in the stories of our time. What, are you excited to hear them? Do you want to learn from them? "

Su Hao didn't feel embarrassed after his uncle Gui understood his thoughts.

I was just dozing off when someone brought me a pillow.

Tan Kou Tan Kou, it sounds like it is a kung fu that is famous for its kicking skills. If the apprenticeship of Uncle Feng fails, Tan Kou Chen is also a good substitute.

Su Hao wanted to learn grappling before. After all, he had reached the entry level in this aspect. It would be okay if the opponent was an ordinary person, but the opponent he had to face would most likely be a zombie.

He just wants to kick the zombies far away and prevent them from getting close. Doesn't playing grapple with zombies mean that he has lived too long?

Not to mention whether this thing smells bad or not, it contains corpse poison.

"Uncle Gui, you know that I am a policeman and I often have to deal with criminals. It wouldn't be wrong to learn more about how to deal with them, right?"

"Then Tan Zuochen is still in Kowloon Walled City. Can you find his address or contact information?"

Uncle Gui turned around and returned to the canteen, picked up the phone on the table and played several numbers in succession. After a while, he hung up with gratitude, took out a note and wrote an address on it.

"There is a Taekwondo gym on the second floor of XX Road in Kowloon City. There is a warehouse downstairs. Tan Zuochen is there helping people look after the warehouse. I don't know if he will accept disciples. If you are willing to spend some money, he can teach you. One move and a half.”

"After all, when you are old, lame, and have no children, you have to make money to eat and save money for your retirement."

Su Hao took the note and stuffed it into his pocket, then returned the old newspaper to the other party, "Uncle Gui, thank you very much."

"There's no need to thank me. Zi Ning, just work harder. I only have one son at home, and if you don't live up to expectations, I will still count on this girl to help me take care of myself in the future."

Uncle Gui continued to mutter behind him.

Chapter 49 Entering Kowloon Walled City Again

At 9 o'clock in the evening, Su Hao was wearing a windbreaker and a gentleman's hat. The brim of the hat was set very low, almost covering half of his face.

He was standing across the road from Entrance No. 1, wandering back and forth pretending to be on the phone, secretly observing the two police officers guarding Entrance No. 1 from the corner of his eyes.

There were two main reasons why he decided to come back today last night.

First, there were too many people at the scene, and he was the main hero in solving the case. Many people's attention was focused on him and it was difficult to leave.

Moreover, Uncle Feng, an expert, was also present. Common excuses could deceive others, but not Uncle Feng.

Su Hao didn't bother to add any extraneous details.

The second reason was that he heard from Liu SIR that police officers were on duty at several entrances to Kowloon Walled City during the Bon Festival to prevent unrelated people from running in and causing accidents.

Liu SIR just boasted about Haikou in front of reporters, and he didn't want to be slapped in the face by any accident.

What if a flour guy goes in and inhales too much and dies suddenly, or if a drunk guy accidentally falls to death in there, it won't be clear at that time.

If there is another reason, it is laziness.

After Su Hao returned home, he could have waited until after 12 o'clock in the evening before turning back, but after being tired all night, he was really too lazy to move.

It doesn't matter if it's a day late.

Su Hao waited for a while and found that the two police officers were not focused on the security aspect at all. They had been chatting for a while about a female colleague in the unit, and they were arguing about whether the other person's height was 1 meters or 75 meters. For a while.

Then there was an argument about whether the other party was single.

It was obvious that the people assigned to duty were two young single policemen.

After a while, one of the policemen was going to a nearby supermarket to buy cigarettes, and the other one looked around. It was already very late now, and there were not many people on the road. In addition, this is the former site of the Kowloon Walled City, which was built in Meng a few years ago. Around Lan Festival, people were killed one after another, which made the news.

Even if there are pedestrians passing by nearby, most of them are in a hurry, for fear of getting into some bad luck inside.

"Just leave for a while, buy some things and come back."

Police Officer No. 2 glanced slightly at Su Hao across the street, without arousing his vigilance at all.

What he was wary of was not normal people at all, but homeless people and drunkards.

Su Hao watched the two of them enter a roadside supermarket 20 meters away, and immediately trotted over. The wooden railing door at entrance No. 1 had been repaired.

It's just that the gap above is still very large, and a normal adult can bend down and get in. The symbolic significance is greater than the actual significance.

A few minutes later, when the two police officers returned from the supermarket and continued to stay at the door to talk nonsense, there was already one more person at the entrance.

Su Hao used a powerful flashlight and walked alone on the familiar path from last night.

The traces of lime on the ground are still clear, but today there is no one in the Kowloon Walled City. A person stepping on the road will occasionally make a little noise when he touches the scraps of paper and garbage on the ground.

Although the sound is not loud, it travels far.

Su Hao didn't dare to be careless. He kept his discernment open and had a pistol stuck in his waist.

I also have a pair of calipers specially designed for opening iron doors.

After turning a corner, Su Hao placed the flashlight on an old unused sofa nearby, took off his windbreaker and stuffed it behind the sofa, revealing a very ordinary men's pajamas underneath.

At the same time, he put a playing card mask embroidered with the eight of spades on his face.

From this moment on, he transformed into another person, a crazy homeless man and a folk exorcist.

After changing clothes, Su Hao couldn't help but walk a little faster.

10 minutes later, Su Hao appeared at the door of the dental clinic he had just visited yesterday. A seal had been affixed to it, but the lock below was still broken, so he could only deceive outsiders who didn't know the situation.

He used a flashlight to observe the surrounding environment. Just like yesterday, the kicked-open window on the second floor was still empty and unobstructed.

The surroundings were as quiet as a ghost.

Su Hao thought for a moment, if he was Mrs. He's ghost, where would it most likely appear?

Her body was presumably cremated decades ago, and the location of her ashes is unknown.

The corpse of the woman she had recently possessed was also burned, and the remains were collected by the forensic team.

Then the most likely place left to appear is still the house on the second floor, because there are her obsessions, her life memories, and all her resentments.

It is not ruled out that she has other hiding places. After all, the old site of Kowloon Walled City is a corpse hiding place. What is a corpse hiding place? It is a place with extremely strong Yin Qi.
