Chapter 194 Buying Qi
Spent the New Year in the mountaintop villa.
After eating the New Year’s Eve dinner, Jian Ruochen completed a unique review on the observation deck in front of the garden of his mountaintop villa.
The sergeant major from the mainland finally got bored and gave the Conant family's ancestral British bodyguards and servants a set of Chinese-style military training and drills in his free time.
They can now wear suits and march in step. Each of them is a bodyguard, and there is also a British chef in a white chef's uniform in the formation.
He has lost weight.
There is a hint of rationality mixed in with the humor and absurdity.
"Have you bought fireworks?" Jian Ruochen turned around and asked Luo Binwen.
"You can enjoy a fireworks show here." Luo Binwendao looked at the fountain in the garden and said with emotion, "Finally, our 4,000 square meter garden is no longer used by you for morning exercises."
Jian Ruochen's eyes moved away guiltily, "Where is the 4,000 square meters?"
Luo Binwen smiled and said, "The small forest park at the back is also ours. It was equipped with surveillance cameras in 1993. Do you think it is a public area for the first and second wing?"
I don’t know who comes to turn over the terrace whenever they get the chance.
The air seemed to become silent in an instant.
A round, golden firework rose up in front of me. When the sparks fully bloomed, I heard a "bang!"
Then, the end of the fireworks fell like a meteor, making a series of light sounds.
This firework sounded like a horn. The whole villa area of Li Jin International was filled with the sound of firecrackers. The night sky was lit up by the fireworks. Jian Ruochen looked up blankly and suddenly became speechless.
There were Chinese New Year celebrations in previous years, but the Lijin area would not have set off fireworks on such a large scale.
Maybe Uncle Luo went to every family and told them not to live there, because they don't know what's going on over there, the fireworks they set off are always in strange shapes, and none of them are round.
Bie 3 and Bie 4 are in the catering, sporting goods and gym business. Jian Ruochen had only met them a few times at banquets.
5. In particular, he is a newly appointed deputy director of the Security Bureau. He is the only Hong Konger in this system of four deputy directors and one director. He used to work as assistant to the Commissioner of Police under Le Jinwen in the Police Force.
His fireworks were the kind that made a particularly loud double-kick firecrackers, mixed with a little bit of □□, and when they exploded they were a cool blue-purple color.
It looks expensive at first glance.
"How did godfather convince them to set off fireworks together at twelve o'clock?" Jian Ruochen murmured in astonishment, "So beautiful."
Guan Yingjun stood beside him, without looking up, his eyes fell directly on Jian Ruochen's face, and saw that the gorgeous scenery in the sky was reflected in his bright eyes. His lips were slightly parted, his face full of undisguised joy and shock.
What a nice view.
"Where did you buy those fireworks? They don't look like they come from the same company." Jian Ruochen couldn't help laughing when he saw a red, hairy bomb that turned into a flat round shape after exploding.
"We bought the others as gifts, but my uncle insisted on buying them himself." Guan Yingjun raised his hand and held the stunned Jian Ruochen. His expression was indifferent, almost the same as when they first met, except that there was a shadow of Jian Ruochen in his eyes. "Let's work together to build a society ruled by law. You can wait a few more months for the five-star red flag. The entire Li Jin International is now full of people who are dedicated to the motherland. The illegal Hong Kong businessmen and corrupt officials have been arrested and liquidated one by one in previous cases. Is this the peaceful sea and river you want?"
Jian Ruochen was stunned.
No words could describe his shock at this moment.
Guan Yingjun actually remembered what he said when he was angry when he first came.
At that time, this man was extremely suspicious and had to get to the bottom of any doubts he revealed. He had just arrived and was still being suspected even after being a hero. He couldn't go back, so he took advantage of the situation and got half-seriously and half-fakely angry.
He had forgotten what he said at that time, but Guan Yingjun still remembered it.
Jian Ruochen seldom cries.
He felt that Guan Yingjun's eyes turned red more often than his.
But this time I really couldn't help it.
He raised Guan Yingjun's hand, wiped his eyes with the man's sleeve, and replied, "Yeah."
He paused and asked, "Did you buy the fireworks with your pocket money? Is the money enough - um."
The mouth is blocked.
Guan Yingjun rubbed his soft lips with his teeth as he kissed him, "Okay."
His thoughts were wandering, and he somehow thought of the scene when he first went to the Jiang family to steal the account book.
At that time, Jian Ruochen was addicted to acting and said that he was his new PR sponsor.
The same pretty face as before.
The mouth is still as jumpy as it was then.
Guan Yingjun didn't know whether his heart was beating faster today or on the day he stole the account book.
Jian Ruochen also thought of it.
He also thought of Jiang Hanyu, "Logically speaking, Jiang Hanyu should be released from prison."
"No." Guan Yingjun said, "He's dead. When Jiang Hanyu's sentence was about to end, the spy case at the elementary school happened to be closed. West Kowloon got a new confession and increased his sentence. After Jiang Hanyu learned that his sentence had been increased, his health deteriorated and he didn't last more than a month."
"That's it." Jian Ruochen nodded.
No one mentioned him again.
·
After the Chinese New Year, in March 1997, Jian Ruochen took another internal transfer exam.
Before the results came out, the Nine-Faced Buddha was captured and brought back to Hong Kong.
He even survived CIB's memory restoration technique and three interrogation room power outages, but he couldn't survive Guan Yingjun's words: "It seems you really want to meet our consultant Jian."
Nine-Faced Buddha: Not really.
He confessed the moment Guan Yingjun picked up the phone to make the call, and said that he wanted a suspended death sentence and would cooperate with the investigation to catch the drug lord in Mexico.
Jian Ruochen listened to the whole process on the other side of the phone. "Interpol will take over you and assign you a task. They have advanced technology. I will notify them to install a pacemaker for you. If you have second thoughts, they can execute you with a remote control from 10 meters away."
Nine-Faced Buddha: ...
After being beaten up by Guan Yingjun's men Huo Mingxuan, he became arrogant and listened to Jian Ruochen's words, which made his life or death uncertain.
It is said that this person can brainwash people.
Whether it's true or not, having a pacemaker next to your heart is better than being brainwashed.
In just two sentences, the way of death is arranged.
Guan Yingjun spent two months clearing out the Nine-Faced Buddha's followers, from Burma to the Philippines, filling up the prisons in the mountains of the New Territories.
During this period, Jian Ruochen gradually took over the power that Le Jinwen had delegated to him bit by bit in the Police Department.
Originally, everyone was worried that Sir Jian would make his first move after taking office.
But soon various departments discovered it.
The funding increased, and a computer was finally installed on the desk. One unsolved case was solved every week, and the performance was evenly distributed with clues and hints, and the bonus was obtained through subcontracting.
The glory of the little God of Wealth shines on the entire police force!
On June 29, 1997, Jian Ruochen followed Le Jinwen to prepare for martial law.
"The Kowloon Central Link is closed. Give out the red bags prepared this morning to the residents in the surrounding shops and residential buildings as a reassurance. Explain the situation and be careful with your tone, don't be too harsh." Jian Ruochen said while holding the walkie-talkie.
The red plastic bag looks simple, very much like the small packages that our grandmothers would keep in their lapels and be reluctant to throw away.
But inside are the commemorative gold banknotes that were just issued this year.
Le Jinwen also got one, and he looked at it for a moment, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, before getting down to business. "The mainland has discussed with the English government, and an advance force will enter the port in advance, arriving at 10 o'clock in the evening."
"I understand. They've given the news and sent over the blocked route as a backup," Jian Ruochen said.
He had never experienced such a historic scene, so he was inevitably nervous. Only then did he realize that he did not sleep well last night, and his mind was full of photos he had seen in school.
The red background was packed with people, standing clearly on both sides. The two flags rose and fell one by one, and the moment of alternation was the end of an era and the beginning of a glory.
There were some dark circles under Jian Ruochen's eyes, but his expression was very excited. Guan Yingjun was not idle at this time either. CIB was checking the buildings that the leader had to pass through, and deploying defenses at high floors to prevent malicious incidents such as assassinations.
Everyone was on high alert.
Inside the police car, there was the sound of a cell phone vibrating.
Everyone took out their phones to check.
Jian Ruochen said: "It's mine."
His face darkened slightly. "The latest news from the STN Weather Station is that it will be cloudy and then turn to thunderstorms around 10 o'clock tonight, and the temperature will be 26 degrees."
"It's going to rain." Le Jinwen sighed, "I wonder if it will rain heavily, and whether anyone will take advantage of the situation to fish."
He paused and turned to ask Jian Ruochen, "What do you think?"
Jian Ruo pondered for a moment, "Should we send a riot squad to guard the place where the British Hong Kong garrison is located?"
Le Jinwen said with relief: "That's what we should do. The Explosive Ordnance Disposal Department should search the surrounding trash cans to prevent anyone from planting bombs in them."
Most of the lower-class Hong Kong people are willing to return, but many wealthy capitalists have already immigrated with their children.
"It's not easy." Le Jinwen choked up.
He looked to his side.
Sometimes one case or one person can change so much.
He couldn't bear to think about how much talent would have been lost from Hong Kong if the British Hong Kong spy headquarters had not been wiped out three years ago, and whether the British Hong Kong talent transfer plan would have been successful.
If Jian Ruochen had helped West Kowloon capture Lu Qian, how rampant would the Triads become?
Time passes in the busy atmosphere, and everyone seems to have a ticking clock in their heart.
Everyone is counting down.
A group of vendors even appeared on the streets of Hong Kong selling empty cans, with signs and cans reading "The Last Breath of the British Government."
Jian Ruochen found it interesting when he passed by and bought a can for collection.
·
Ten o'clock in the evening on June 30, 1997.
For the first time, Jian Ruochen intuitively felt what it meant to have a large army approaching.
In 2030, wars will rely on high technology and drones, a scene he has never seen before.
I truly understand what it means to say, "If you agree, return it to me at midnight on July 1. If you don't agree, return it to me now. Anyway, this red flag has to be raised."
In such an atmosphere, no one dared to breathe.
The showers predicted by the weather forecast did drizzle a little. Jian Ruochen looked up at the sky from time to time and felt that it was going to rain heavily soon.
For such a big event, the most feared thing is heavy rain.
Heavy rain reduces visibility, making vigilance inconvenient and even reducing the quality of thermal imaging.
Jian Ruochen looked over the flow chart in Le Jinwen's hand again and again, trying to think over and over again whether there were any mistakes or omissions in today's work.
His heart was beating so hard that it hurt his chest.
The channel with CIB buzzed.
Guan Yingjun said: "The inspection of surrounding buildings is complete."
Jian Ruochen got goose bumps all over his body.
Le Jinwen said: "It's time for us to leave too."
