History of Hong Kong Island

Chapter 145 Killing the Ghost

A week later.

In Taiguan, Central District, Mai Jingtao, wearing a military uniform and holding documents, stood at the door of meeting room No. [-], took a deep breath, and pushed the door of the meeting room open forcefully.

"Mai sir."

"Mai sir."

A group of superintendents at the Constitutional Committee level and senior superintendents sitting on the periphery stopped whispering one after another, turned around and stood up to greet the chief.

The two assistant directors followed behind him, step by step, with serious expressions.

Mai Jingtao slightly nodded at the group of superintendents who stood up, strode forward, and sat at the core position of the director level. Today, he will once again propose the establishment of a serious crime team. Today, he will start to take over the highest power of the police force!
After half an hour.

Mai Jingtao stood on the speech platform of the meeting place, reiterated the proposal, looked at the more than a hundred Xianwei senior executives present, and said loudly: "Now let's vote with a show of hands, those who agree!"

"Whoa."

At least half of the constitutional committee members present raised their hands in support: "I support it."

"Approve the proposal!"

"The police force needs a team that specializes in serious crimes..."

Xu Shicheng, Senior Assistant Director of the Kowloon District, raised his hand under the attention of everyone.

Chief of Police Yu Yunshi looked calm and raised his hand slowly.

Immediately, more than [-]% of the high-level members of the Constitutional Committee raised their hands in agreement. After the meeting secretary recorded it, Mai Jingtao chuckled and said, "The majority is in favor, and this proposal is passed..."

The impact of the police force's establishment of the serious crime unit is not limited to this.

The Chinese broke the inspector-level police rank.

Started to enter the middle-level leadership with real power.

The government sent the most influential Chinese action team on the front line, which can effectively implement the orders of the Governor of Hong Kong to the grassroots, and the military sent lost the most important political bargaining chip.

The position of the next Police Commissioner has undoubtedly fallen into the hands of the government faction, because whoever controls the front-line political power and whoever controls the real power will be the talker of the police force!

In this world, rights come first and jobs come second!

Unless the military faction rebels, there is no need to fight for the position of the next police chief. An action on the front line, if done properly, is enough to determine the change of personnel at the top.

This is the military over politics!
this afternoon.

Ge Bai came to Inspector Hua's office enthusiastically, shook hands vigorously, and said excitedly: "Inspector He, the high-level meeting of the police force has passed the decision to establish a serious crime team, and the police force will issue an official notice tomorrow, congratulations!"

"Thank you Sir Ge." He Dingxian let go of his hand without any trace, handed him a cup of hot tea, and said with a light smile, "I can't live without Sir Ge's help."

"I'm just doing a little work." Ge Bai smiled modestly, took a sip of tea, and sat on the sofa: "From now on, everyone will call you Sir."

"Has my rank of inspector come down?" He Dingxian looked a little surprised. In the police force, except for private and special occasions, generally only inspector-level police officers are called sir, and superintendent-level police officers are called big sir. It is a tradition brought by Guilao in his ancestral home.

Inspector Hua is a senior sergeant with the rank of Sergeant of the Police Department, and is assigned the position of Chief Inspector Hua, and above that is the chief of the serious crime team at the inspector level.

The Serious Crime Squad is directly under Tai Kwun, responsible for serious crimes in Hong Kong, and has the right to call Chinese detectives from the three districts.

Although he has never said it explicitly, at least he must be assigned a police inspector rank. In fact, Gui Lao also arranged in the same way.

After the reorganization of the police force in the 70s, the head of the serious crime team of each district was also a senior inspector at the last, and the chief inspector of the regional serious crime team.

Fighting life and death for ghosts, it's not too much to be an inspector, right?
Ge Bai sneered, and said in relief: "Sir, don't worry, the higher-ups plan to let you act as the chief of the serious crime team, and you will be promoted to a regular next year. The only one who will come down with the document notice is the title of police chief, but it is also the same as Detective Zonghua. As high as the police rank."

"The status is still higher than that of Zonghua Inspector!"

That's the importance of the platform.

Even if the leader of the serious crime team is demoted to act as an agent, but by virtue of his own position, he will step on Inspector Zonghua as soon as he appears on the stage.

Chief Inspector Chen jumping out to fight in the ring is really justifiable.

He Dingxian was slightly regretful, and said with emotion: "I understand, I must show excellent results to get the approval of the chief."

"Don't worry, what belongs to you, no one can take it away." Ge Bai took out the cigarette case and opened it, and took out a cigarette politely: "One?"

"Thank you." He Dingxian took the cigarette, and after thinking about it carefully, it was the first time Ge Bai handed him a cigarette.

"call."

Ge Bai lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and said slowly, "I have something to inform you, Sir Mai wants to see you, but before meeting Sir Mai, you need to do one thing."

"what's up?"

He Dingxian said in astonishment: "I will prepare the fee according to Inspector Zonghua's, and I will prepare another copy for the promotion of Inspector in the future."

Ghosts don't go up two levels at a time.

Isn't it just an extra cut?

Ge Bai waved his hand and said, "No, Sir He, the director of management needs your help to get rid of a person."

"On the side?"

He Dingxian frowned, and didn't dare to agree easily. With the power of managing the deputy director, wouldn't it be easy to deal with a person?

Why should he come to help?

It is not a matter involving Chinese people politically.

Ge Bai said: "Is there any problem for you to get rid of George, the general manager of Hong Kong Island Land? He has been fired by Hong Kong Island Land now, and he is unemployed. He will leave Hong Kong Island with a plane ticket five days later and go to Singapore to start a business. Five days later, Take his case file to see Sir Mai."

George is the manager of Hong Kong Island Land, responsible for winning the Shek Kip Mei project and operating a series of events behind the scenes.

It is serving the Keswick family itself, but it is also one of the instigators. It is impossible for the police force to mess with the Keswick family. He Dingxian and Mai Jingtao have no guts, and there is no need to touch the Keswick family. It is only natural to move George. .

At this time, George had left Hong Kong Island Land and no longer served Hong Kong Island Land. Moving him was not only a warning to the Keswick family, but also would not violate the ghost's bottom line. George himself was an abandoned son. But He Dingxian's character will not do anything to the abandoned son.

It's not that George is innocent, but that he can't appease his anger by moving an abandoned child, and he feels like bullying the weak and the bullying has no backing.

Therefore, He Dingxian didn't want to take revenge directly on Hongkong Land now, but secretly made a note to let Hongkong Land pay back the capital with interest in the future.

Why did the police force let go of an abandoned child?Is the director of management so idle!He Dingxian met Ge Bai's staring pupils, and sensed the hidden warning inside, and his heart skipped a beat: "Mai Sir wants to catch me!"

"The position of the serious crime team is so important, but I didn't rely on Sir Mai's help at all. On the surface, it was an exchange and mutual benefit. In a sense, I helped the ghosts sent by the government find opportunities, and the government sent them to balance and play. Governing power, that is simply a political fund engraved in the bones, now I am afraid that I will not be able to control me, and deliberately want me to move a ghost!"

"A knife with a handle is easy to use, so he asked me to give someone a handle and vote for a certificate!" Many thoughts flashed through He Dingxian's mind, and he came up with the answer: "If I don't do this matter, I'm afraid I can only act as an agent. The one-year serious crime team will soon be transferred to the logistics idle, and can't become a full-time member. Not only does the ghost want to collect two shares of money, but he also wants to use it to control me. There are so many ghosts."

And the Chinese embezzle fees, cover up associations, collude with government and businessmen, and transfer benefits...is this a trick!All police forces in Hong Kong do this!

Do it like a ghost!

But the Chinese police officer planned to murder a British person, a senior executive of a foreign company, and a celebrity in the business world. That would be big news!

Big deal!
In terms of the current social environment, major public opinion will be aroused immediately, dismissal, detention, torture, and a set of procedures will be put in place immediately.

Nowadays, there is a general consensus among people from all walks of life on Hong Kong Island that "Brits cannot be killed" and "foreigners' interests" cannot be offended, even ghosts think so!
Only then will he be asked to kill a ghost to vote for a certificate!

But He Dingxian is really not afraid of killing ghosts!

Is the ghost very powerful?
The peninsula is slaughtering it!
What am I afraid of?

Anyway, the official faction is going to be prosperous, and they will be in power for decades in the future. On the premise of a good cooperative relationship, the idiot will break up with you.

I'll give you the handle, you think I'm being a dog, and I think you're working for me!
After a few years, the police rank will be mentioned again, and you will get a few more medals. It really breaks with you. Do you dare to expose it?

I am wrong and you are wrong!

The big deal is to buy a few more newspapers.

Let's see who earns!

Subjectively, he wants to cooperate with the ghosts sent by the government for a long time, and his interests are also consistent. At most, he will fight with a certain ghost, but it is impossible to fight with the entire faction. It's just a small trick, it's been five or eight years, and the big news has passed!

"No problem!" He Dingxian pinched the cigarette with his fingers, propped his elbows on the sofa, raised his legs, and said decisively, "Where will we meet in five days?"

"Jockey Club VIP box, Room B, Sir Mai will wait for you with all the officers. On weekdays, Sir Mai likes to watch horse races, and has rented a private room for parties for a long time. This will be the first time you will sit in the VIP box and watch with the officers. A Chinese police officer for a horse race!" Ge Bai's tone was haughty.

He Dingxian nodded calmly, "Okay, then we will meet at the horse race."

What kind of shit VIP box, it's better to have foreign girls!
Ge Bai chatted with He Dingxian again. After he conveyed the matter of the officer, he lowered his attitude a lot inside and out. It was nothing more than asking him to speak kindly to the officer after he arrived in Taiguan. He was transferred to the Central District where there is a lot of oil and water, and the two worked together to make money.

After all, Ge Bai has just been promoted not long ago, and if he goes up to the level of the constitutional committee, one radish and one hole, even if he has accumulated strong political capital in this incident, he will have to wait for the people above to vacate his position, and he will be promoted in a short while. Job is hopeless.

He Dingxian promised with all his mouth, but he felt insincere in his heart. He didn't bring a girl, but he also brought some gold, Hong Kong dollars.

You only know how to reach out to ask for things, but you don't know how to bring something to the door. Who will give you face?

The next day, the police force officially issued a notice on the establishment of the serious crime team and a series of personnel appointments. Chen Tong resigned from the position of Chief Inspector Hua and was replaced by Inspector Lei Luo of Kowloon Tong Hua. The rank of police chief is the same as that of inspector. Chen Jiale was promoted to the inspector of Jordan District, and Meng Yuanda was promoted to the inspector of Mong Kok...

The documents are distributed internally, accompanied by the authority of the serious crime team, establishment matters, etc.

Thousands of Chinese police officers in more than [-] police stations, large and small, caused an uproar among plainclothes and military uniforms, and there was an uproar.

No one expected that Inspector General Hua, who ruled Hong Kong Island after the war, would step down at once.

Mong Kok mission office.

Meng Yuanda, Chen Jiale, Yan Xiong, and Agui stood at the door, smoking cigarettes, and looked at each other for a while. Finally, someone broke the calm: "I'm not dreaming, am I? I've become Inspector Hua?"

“It’s still in the Mong Kok area!”

Meng Yuanda was wearing a white shirt, raised his fat hand, and slapped his face on the face. It was obviously very light, but it seemed heavy from his ferocious face.

A Gui said from the side: "Congratulations Brother Da, the dream has come true. How could the document signed by the ghost in black and white be fake?"

"I have to thank Brother Xian." Meng Yuanda's face was full of joy, and he wanted to leave when he was excited, but suddenly stopped and said, "No, I have to talk to Brother Xian."

"Brother Le worked with Brother Xian in Yau Ma Tei, and even a Jordan inspector is too small to be promoted. The position of inspector in Mong Kok is not for Brother Le, but also for Brother Xiong."

A Le glanced at him: "I didn't see you calling Brother Le before, but now?"

Meng Yuanda smiled all over his face: "Brother Le, Brother Xiong."

Yan Xiong said angrily: "It's time to find Brother Xian. Congratulations to the officer for his promotion, but let's not talk about the fixed position."

"Do you think the police station will open for you, sign the document, and change it as soon as you say?" If the fixed location can be changed at will, Meng Yuanda might not be able to speak.

But Yan Xiong, who should have contributed the most and worked the hardest among all the people, did not receive the promotion document.

But Yan Xiong could understand that Meng Yuanda took the position of Inspector Hua in Mong Kok, because Brother Xian obviously did not intend to give up the territory in Mong Kok, and let the most useless and obedient person be Inspector Hua, naturally it would be the most convenient to continue to control Mong Kok.

Something really happened.

Is there any serious crime team that can't get it right?
Yau Tsim Mong, Sham Shui Po, Kowloon Tong, and even the Chief Inspector of Kowloon District, don’t they all hang out with Brother Xian now?
As for the position of Inspector Hua in Jiulongtang, it was reserved for Lei Luo, who was said to be a high-ranking inspector named Chen Xijiu. I don't know if Xijiu can do it, but Brother Luo is obviously very capable.

And the location of Jordan District is not small.

"Yes, yes, let's go and congratulate the officer together." Meng Yuanda said hastily.

The four came to the chief's office, stood at attention and saluted, congratulating the chief on his promotion.

He Dingxian had half a month to deploy [-] elite detectives from the Hong Kong criminal team to form the Tai Kwun serious crime team. Two months of special training, getting familiar with the firepower configuration of the serious crime team, cultivating the tacit understanding of personnel, etc...

However, He Dingxian was not busy dealing with the serious crimes team first, leading the establishment of a department with a lot of things to do, and many things have not had time to do it.

No one was killed, and the money was not in place.

At this time, the four of them were all given cigarettes from the officer, and the officer said in a playful tone: "Two detectives, how do you feel about being promoted?"

Meng Yuanda and Chen Jiale immediately said in a solemn voice: "Sir, Mong Kok Jordan, you have the final say!"

"I didn't ask you this, I asked you, how does it feel to be promoted?" He Dingxian corrected while sitting on the chair.

Meng Yuanda smiled obsequiously: "It all depends on the support of the chief, and it feels pretty good..."

"Ah Xiong, will you be disappointed that I didn't get you the position of Inspector Hua in District [-]?" He Dingxian turned his gaze to Yan Xiong.

Yan Xiong admitted frankly: "Brother Xian intends to use me, so he will naturally."

On the contrary, he thought very clearly, knowing that he had a black history, no matter how hard he tried, the officer would use it if he used it, and if he didn't use it, he wouldn't use it!

No one can talk too much.

He has no right to complain, otherwise his future would be ruined if the officer questioned him.

He Dingxian was happy to appreciate his calmness, and said with a light smile: "Inspector Hua has a number of positions, and there will be no room for so many in a while, let alone you, Inspector Cai, Inspector Zeng, and my master, one by one. There is no room for promotion, but you will benefit from relying on me. I have a position as deputy team leader in the serious crime department. I will promote you to Taiguan to help me. Are you interested?"

A smile appeared on the corner of Yan Xiong's mouth, and a stone fell from his heart. He saluted again and said, "Thank you, sir!"
