Ah Kang, Hong Kong's number one petty thief, went from retiring from crime to returning to it in just two years.
Nie Zhao asked with some doubt: "Did you already plan to come here to find A Kang?"
Chen Rou frankly admitted, "My intuition tells me that he's not doing very well here."
Nie Zhao said, "He's actually a good helper."
Lin Sir is just a stumbling block; once kicked aside, the focus shifts to the Tamar base, and Chen Rou aims to raid 007's lair.
She needed an assistant, but looking across Hong Kong, everyone else could only work on the periphery. The most suitable person to accompany her inside had to be a top-notch petty thief, and Chen Rou's choice had always been Ah Kang.
Nie Zhao was quite perceptive. He glanced back at A Kang's retreating figure as he skipped and jumped away, and asked, "He bought a house, didn't he?"
When A-Kang arrived, Tokyo's housing prices were on the verge of a bubble.
He could have bought a million-dollar house near Disneyland, used the remaining millions for retirement, and lived a carefree life. But, to his dismay, he decided to buy a multi-million dollar house in Tokyo. When the bubble burst, house prices plummeted, his wife left him, the house was sold, and he was left with nothing. And when a person has nothing, of course, he is unhappy.
Chen Rou smiled wryly: "Those gangsters in Kowloon are all the same as long as they don't have the help of the two elders."
Those gangsters don't know how to manage finances. The gang that Master Er released, some gambled, some bought luxury cars and mansions, but after a while they all came back crying, kneeling in front of Master Er and weeping bitterly, just because they had no life experience.
This time, Chen Rou was practically feeding him, hoping that A Kang would go to the mainland next time.
If he buys a house and has a place to live, he can continue to perform his beloved magic tricks, such as hat tricks.
Moreover, the mainland speaks the same language as him, so it can be considered his hometown.
Chen Rou had a good idea, but Nie Zhao didn't think so.
There was disdain in his eyes: "Even if he buys a house in mainland China, he won't be able to settle down. He'll end up living in a subdivided flat sooner or later."
Chen Rou said, "Buying a house in mainland China now is a sure thing, and he just needs to work steadily."
Nie Zhao said, "He will remarry, and he will marry a beautiful woman. The beautiful woman will still leave, and he will still have nothing."
Chen Rou had never met A Kang's wife, but Nie Zhao had investigated his background and seen photos of his ex-wife, knowing she was a beautiful woman. However, Chen Rou was quite unconvinced and asked, "How do you know he's remarrying, and that he'll marry a beautiful woman?"
Boss Nie is very good at living: "He has a keen eye for women, the audacity to steal, and he's also good at flattering people."
Everyone likes beautiful things, but men are definitely born with a penchant for beauty.
This is a pattern that Nie Zhao noticed when he went out with his wife. Because she is quite tall and has long, slender legs, wearing the currently popular skinny jeans, not only men but also women like to stare at her.
As for Ah Kang, Chen Rou hadn't even specifically sought him out before he came to her door on his own.
At first glance, it was because of his keen eye that he spotted her, this beautiful woman, in the crowd. Upon closer inspection, he realized she was an old friend, and he eagerly followed after her.
Of course, gangsters are all sorts of lowlifes, so you can't expect them to have noble character. But he marries a beautiful woman because of her looks, and the woman marries him for profit. When he no longer has any profit, the woman will leave, and then he will be penniless again.
That was his destiny, and also the destiny of countless lustful people.
If a man is willing to look beyond a woman's physical appearance to see her wisdom, he has a base of support. Take Mr. Nie himself, for example. Of course, he not only appreciates his wife's wisdom, but also her beauty. Whenever they are in public, the gazes of strange men will always remind him and make him notice her, just like Ah Kang today.
For A Yuan, tonight was truly a joyful night. The fireworks were beautiful, and his sister held him in the center of the room as they watched the show, holding both his father's and mother's hands.
However, compared to his happiness and leisure, Huo Qi's life was a bit difficult.
He had just jumped onto a boat when he was almost exhausted from swimming, rolled over onto the deck, and was breathing heavily.
As someone on the ship approached him, a beam of bright light shone from afar: "We are the Royal Navy Police, please stop immediately..."
The people on board also used a loudspeaker to announce: "Our ship number is GAB. We are delivering goods for the Governor-General's Office. We have the necessary permits."
The lights came on in response, revealing the ship's number. It was indeed GAB, a police ship. A white officer raised his binoculars to look at the ship opposite and saw a tall, thin man with a pointed bald head standing on the deck, wearing a wide-cut suit.
He held aloft a certificate framed in gold, featuring a crown supported by two lions.
That was indeed the Governor's Business Pass. The white officer waved his hand, and the police boat sailed away.
On the merchant ship, the Taiwanese man holding the pass didn't say, "Alright, let's move out," until the other party had left.
The brothers Nie Jiajun and Nie Jiayu hurriedly moved Huo Qi into the cabin.
After helping him to a chair, Nie Jiajun asked, "Which damn officer betrayed you?"
Huo Qi took the bottle of mineral water handed to him by Nie Jiayu and gulped down more than half of it in one go. After catching his breath for a while, he said, "It's BOB from the Flying Tigers. He's of mixed Portuguese, English, and Chinese descent, but he's one of my good subordinates. So it was me. I was careless."
The Bob who arrested him was the one who, in league with Sir James, almost tricked Chen Ke into joining the Tamar base.
Bob was not a British man in the traditional sense, and he was the only white man in the Flying Tigers.
When Huo Qi heard that there was nuclear radiation at the crime scene, he had to immediately notify the Flying Tigers, because they would be the first to arrive. However, the Flying Tigers were the most elite force in the Hong Kong police force and his subordinates, and he did not want them to get hurt.
