"How can it be?"
In the office, Liu Fu looked at his nephew Liu He in surprise.
Liu He was nervous: "It's been broadcast on TV, Lei Luo is a replacement member of the Justice of the Peace! Now it's not only the police station, but also outside!"
Liu Fu took out the cigar and bit it on his mouth.
Liu He hurriedly stepped forward to help him light it.
Liu Fu took a deep breath and said, "Du Yongxiao is still sharp!"
"Uh, what does this have to do with him?"
"You know what the heck!" Liu Fu scolded, "Ah Xiao was behind this from the beginning to the end."
"No way, is that kid so powerful?"
"What do you think?" Liu Fu snorted coldly, "You must get closer to him in the future!"
"Why?"
"Don't you think he looks like Wei Xiaobao?"
"He doesn't have seven wives, so I should be like him."
"You're like a fart, I'm talking about luck! Ah Xiao's luck is incredible, and now even Lei Luo has followed him!"
"I understand, second uncle, you want me to get close to him so that I can breathe in him?"
"Suck your mother! Who do you think you are? Let me do it, suck the stars?"
"Ahem, what do you mean-"
"What I mean is to follow him closely and get involved if there is any benefit. When I retire, you will also have a backer."
"Second uncle, you think too highly of him, why do I still need him as a backer?" Liu He looked dissatisfied.
"Don't believe it, just watch. It has only been a year since he took over the position of Inspector Wah, taking charge of Yau Tsim Mong and other places. If given more time, he might rule the whole of Hong Kong!" Lau Fook said, "I used to I thought Lei Luo was a generational hero who could be groomed to be his successor, but now it seems I was wrong!"
"Uncle, you are indeed wrong. You should have trained me from the beginning!" Liu He looked arrogant. "Otherwise, I would also be Inspector Hua now, not to mention taking charge of Yau Tsim Mong, I might take charge of the entire Kowloon, no. , the entire Hong Kong Island!"
Liu Fu rolled his eyes, looking at his ambitious and talented nephew who was just a bullshit, "I don't want to talk to you."
"Second uncle, you can't talk to me, right? I told you earlier, you have trained the wrong person from the beginning!"
Liu Fu waved his hand, "Get out!"
Liu He curled his lips, "Then I'll go out first!"
"Wait!"
"What?"
Liu Fu pointed to the birdcage, "Take your bird away too!"
"You don't want to raise myna any more?"
"I support your mother! After teaching you for so long, you can only call me a fool!" Liu Fu pointed at Brother Myna, "As stupid as you!"
"Isn't it appropriate for us to drink now?"
Han Sen sat on the sofa and frowned.
Lan Gang took out two glasses of whiskey from the mini-bar in the office, giving one to Han Sen and holding the other in his hand.
"There's nothing inappropriate." Lan Gang said, "Other people like to package their offices like study rooms, but I treat it like a bar. Do you know why? No matter whether you are happy or sad, you can always drink!"
"Chapter 73 of the Police Ordinance states that no police officer is allowed to drink alcohol while on duty," Han Sen said.
"Any police officer does not include me, because I am Lan Gang!" Lan Gang raised his glass, "Come on, let's drink to Brother Luo's replacement as Justice of the Peace!"
Han Sen reluctantly picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
Lan Gang killed it in one go.
"Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Han Sen asked, "Originally, among the four major detectives, you were the most promising to compete with Brother Luo for the title of Detective Chief Inspector. Now that he has been selected as a replacement, he will directly distance himself from you."
"Haha, Han Sen knows me!" Lan Gang smacked his lips, "Yes, I'm jealous! The Justice of the Peace backup is so sharp!"
He paused and then said: "To be honest, in my opinion, the only two people who can pose a threat to me are Chen Zhichao and Lei Luo. Chen Zhichao is about to return from training at Scotland Yard, and by then he will have a halo, and I'm afraid I won't be able to compete with him; Now Brother Luo has done this again and compared me directly! Asen, I can’t see hope, I know what to do, what should I do?”
Han Sen understood Lan Gang.
As the famous "Desperate Saburo" of the police force, Lan Gang comes from a well-known family, has a high degree of education, and can speak English. His rise is faster than a rocket ride. If Du Yongxiao hadn't come out of nowhere, Lan Gang would definitely be the first person to take up the job.
"I know that you are arrogant and bohemian on the outside, but you are extremely serious about your work, especially for the position of Inspector Zonghua!" Han Sen was usually very close to Lan Gang, and now he opened up completely, "What a pity. , Brother Luo is overpowering you, and now that he has become a backup justice of the peace, you don’t even have the last chance!"
"Haha, even if you knew, you didn't have to say it so bluntly. It's so embarrassing!" Lan Gang poured himself another glass of wine.
"To be honest, you and I were wrong from the beginning to the end."
"Aside?"
"Du Yongxiao." Han Sen said, "Who would have thought that he could influence so many things."
Lan Gang fell silent.
A moment---
"Indeed! You and I have underestimated him from the beginning to the end. What ability can a mere little detective have? Now I know that he is capable of all things."
After Lan Gang finished speaking, he raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp.
"Congratulations to Brother Luo, congratulations to Brother Luo!"
"Brother Luo, you are so majestic now. Your name is all over the TV and newspapers!"
In the Lichi Ballroom, headed by Lard Zai, Chen Xijiu and others, and many Detective Hua came to personally support and congratulate Lei Luo on being nominated as Justice of the Peace.
For them, it is no longer important whether they can win the title of Justice of the Peace. Being nominated has proved Lei Luo's strength.
Lei Luo was so happy that he held a banquet directly in Lichi tonight to entertain these subordinates.
The Retiro Ballroom is definitely the leading gold-selling destination in this era.
The dance hall was established in 1946. At that time, the most famous nightclub in Hong Kong was the "Paragon Door" opened by Charlie the Ghost. Both the building and the employees were in a British style.
Li Caifa, known as "Hong Kong Du Yuesheng", opened the Retiro Garden Nightclub on the edge of Seven Sisters Bay in North Point, directly bringing all the luxury of Shanghai to Hong Kong.
Although the name of Retiro is not as grand as Paramount, the entire nightclub includes golf courses, swimming pools, nightclubs, restaurants, chess and card rooms, etc., providing a one-stop shop for eating, drinking and having fun.
The luxury of Retiro made this nightclub appear on the American "Life" magazine as soon as it opened, and was hailed as the "Moulin Rouge" of the Far East. The owner Li Caifa was also called the "Emperor of Hong Kong Nightclubs" by the magazine.
Now Li Caifa has gone to Treasure Island, and Li Chi has been taken over by the ghost Winston. Times have changed, and there is no place for the hero. But Lichi is still the same Lichi, famous for selling gold.
It can be said that in this era, those who can come to Lichi for consumption are either rich or expensive. Detectives like Lei Luo only come here occasionally.
"Okay, thank you all for coming to support us tonight. I, Lei Luo, would like to propose a toast to you all!" Lei Luo picked up the wine and drank it all in one gulp.
Lard Boy, Chen Xijiu and others also clinked glasses together.
"Brother Luo, you are more prosperous this time, please take more care of us in the future!"
"Yes, Brother Luo, now that you have become a celebrity in society, maybe many people will call you JP Lei (the English abbreviation of Justice of the Peace) in the future!"
"Haha, I don't dare to dream about the JP title. I am very satisfied to be nominated!" Lei Luo said with a smile, "But having said that, I owe today to one person!"
"Who are you?"
"No, he's here!"
