553: Chapter 553: Better to Kill by Mistake than Let Go 553: Chapter 553: Better to Kill by Mistake than Let Go The man loved to laugh, hahaha, endlessly cheerful.
He lit up a cigar, took a puff, and, extending his thumb, praised, “Fifth Master, there are fewer and fewer people as particular as you in the business world these days.
Before selling, you still ca in person to check things out.”
Fifth Master smiled faintly, “Just earning a hard-working fee, that’s all.
You’re asking for so much in one go, I’m worried you might not be able to handle it!”
The man laughed heartily, “Fifth Master, with that comnt, you’re underestimating .
As you just saw, the whole fishing port is under my Smiling Buddha’s control.
I dare not brag about other things, but when it cos to channels for moving goods, we’ve got plenty.
Up north to the Bear Country, east to the Land of Rising Sun, and even the Stick Country in between, all are clients of my Smiling Buddha.
I can handle as much as you’ve got.”
Fifth Master asked, “I’m a bit confused, with your business, the profit should be at least ten million a year.
Why bother taking the risk to dabble in this?”
Smiling Buddha exchanged a glance with the woman, and then laughed loudly again, “Fifth Master, you’re testing !
Rest assured, brother is sincere about collaborating with you.
Ten million a year might sound like a lot to the ordinary person, but to people like us, what difference is there to being poor?”
“That’s true.”
Gao Wushan smiled and told him, “I want to see the money first.”
“Sure, that’s easy!”
Smiling Buddha gave the woman a wink, and she imdiately dragged two large suitcases over.
The zippers were pulled open, three big suitcases.
A swath of gray and white, all banknotes.
Smiling Buddha said, “As you requested, all in dollars.
How about that?
We Guandong people are reliable in business, right?”
Fifth Master nodded and picked up his phone to make a call.
After hanging up the phone, he turned it off, removed the card, and instructed Smiling Buddha, “Third Horse Road, Auspicious Hotel, Room 502, send your people over to check the goods.”
“Alright, that’s the spirit!”
Smiling Buddha laughed heartily and imdiately dialed a number on his phone.
Outside, Long Fei also took out his phone, hands behind his back, and sent a text to Ding Xue, “Third Horse Road, Auspicious Hotel, 502.”
The situation was urgent, no more ti for romance.
After sending the text, he quickly put the phone back in the Storage Ring.
Around the processing factory, the police had quickly set up a periter based on their tracking; the place was firmly surrounded.
In the command center, Ding Xue imdiately forwarded the ssage to Wei Dongming.
Wei Dongming, having finished an interrogation in Southern Ridge, had taken a nightti flight to Lianggang City.
Once Ding Xue’s text arrived, Wei Dongming communicated with the police chief of Lianggang and quickly dispatched officers to the Auspicious Hotel to carry out the arrest.
In the night sky, streams of radio waves constantly crisscrossed from all directions.
Smiling Buddha’s phone soon rang, and his underling said in a grave tone inside, “The rchandise is correct, all accounted for.”
“Got it, be careful!”
After Smiling Buddha gave the order, he hung up the phone and burst into loud laughter, stood up, and reaching out his hand to Fifth Master, said, “Fifth Master, looking forward to our next collaboration.”
“ too!”
Fifth Master nodded and shook his hand.
Long Fei and Silly Biao went in to collect the money, and with Smiling Buddha and his wife seeing them off, left with Fifth Master in the car.
As the gate opened, the police stationed outside urgently reported, “Eagle, Eagle, the target has moved, should we make the arrest?”
“Wait a minute!”
The response from the other end was very anxious.
The operation at the Auspicious Hotel hadn’t ended, and without evidence, they couldn’t risk alarming the suspects.
At the sa ti, the arrest at the Auspicious Hotel began.
All signals in the hotel were jamd, the door to Room 502 was violently ramd, followed by a flashbang tossed inside.
SWAT teams simultaneously rappelled from the rooftop, breaking through the glass windows to enter.
After a burst of gunfire, all the people inside were apprehended.
In a van parked downstairs, three n were dozing off.
At the sound of commotion, they quickly looked up, cried out that it was bad, and hurriedly drove off to escape.
In the command center, Wei Dongming and the police officers from Lianggang City were all wearing solemn expressions, their eyes fixed on the telephone.
Three minutes later, the phone rang.
An officer inside exclaid anxiously, “Eagle, Eagle, wrap it up, one hundred and twenty pounds of rchandise, not a pound short.”
“Understood!”
As soon as the reply ca through, the commander stationed around the processing plant imdiately received the ssage, “Move in!”
“Understood!”
A row of special police officers swiftly scaled the wall, while the people inside were still dazed and got their necks twisted before they could react.
Smiling Buddha was in the room, celebrating with his wife with a glass of red wine.
Before he could finish his drink, the door was violently smashed open.
Outside, there was also a burst of gunfire, rattling sharp and loud.
Without saying a word, Smiling Buddha reached for his gun.
With two bangs, before even catching sight of a shadow, his right arm was hit by a bullet, and he scread in agony as he rolled onto the floor.
At the fishing harbor, Gao Wushan got out of the car with Long Fei and Silly Biao.
Silly Biao called Long Fei over to help with the boxes.
When Long Fei moved to assist, Fifth Master stopped him and took it upon himself to carry them.
Just now in the car, he had received a phone call.
He didn’t say a word, just gave two grunts and hung up, then threw his mobile phone out of the window.
Long Fei knew that soone had definitely leaked the information.
Fifth Master’s refusal to let him handle the money ant he had beco suspicious of him.
According to usual practice, at this mont, he had two choices.
One was to find a way to escape; the other was to continue following Fifth Master and try to bide ti for the police to arrive.
Fifth Master also had two options: one was to kill Long Fei on land, the other was to kill him on the boat.
Clearly, he chose the latter.
Long Fei followed him onto the boat, and all this ti, he had never allowed Long Fei to carry a gun.
There were three brothers on the boat to et them, and once they were off shore, Fifth Master sat silent with a dark expression on his face.
Although Silly Biao was foolish, he knew to read his boss’s mood.
He’d been clamoring for roasted chicken the whole way, but now he sat quietly on the boat, unsure of what Fifth Master was planning to do.
In the middle of the night, the boat reached midway between the two shores.
Suddenly, Fifth Master grunted, “Do it!”
The three strong n behind him swiftly drew their handguns and charged at Long Fei.
Silly Biao, who had been dozing off, was startled awake by the commotion.
Caught in the middle, he looked left and right, frowning, and asked, “Fifth Master, what are you doing?”
Fifth Master ignored him and fixed his gaze on Long Fei, saying, “Sothing’s gone wrong, all our people have been caught.”
“So what?”
Long Fei stared back calmly, his composure making Fifth Master increasingly uneasy.
He stared at Long Fei and asked, “Did you do this?”
Long Fei frowned, pretending to be offended, and retorted, “Are you suspecting ?”
Fifth Master replied, “Apart from you and Silly Biao, no one else knew about this operation.
What do you expect to think?”
Long Fei countered, “Are you sure there’s no problem with those you were dealing with?
If there’s trouble, couldn’t they have let sothing slip, or worse, could they be the police?”
Fifth Master’s brow twitched as he coolly stated, “It’s possible, but I can’t ignore even the slightest possibility.
I trust Silly Biao, you’re the only one I have to inconvenience.”
He was soone who made decisions swiftly and was highly suspicious by nature.
Having spent the least amount of ti with Long Fei, his suspicion of Long Fei ran deep, and he was prepared to make a wrongful kill rather than let Long Fei compromise his entire plan.
