Hong Kong Island, 1971.
A Boeing passenger plane approaches Kowloon Airport.
When it swooped past the Kowloon Walled City, it was less than a hundred meters away from the roof of the building. Residents in the Walled City seemed to be able to touch the sky with their hands.
This is a classic picture left by the times.
Zhuang Shikai picked up the .38 pistol on the table, loaded six bullets into the magazine, and closed the magazine with a "click" with his backhand.
This is his now!
…
On August 15, 1945, the anti-French XS Alliance won, the Allies signed an unconditional surrender agreement, and the era of Japanese occupation of Hong Kong Island came to an end. The British government took over Hong Kong Island again in accordance with the Treaty of Nanjing, and Hong Kong Island ushered in a period of great development.
Although the strong ships and cannons on the coastline have disappeared, the smoke in the air has not yet dissipated. The rapidly developing social environment has led to social disorder in Hong Kong Island. Corporations dominate the market, government and businessmen collaborate, gambling stalls, horse stables, opium dens, smuggling, collection of protection fees, and black and white collusion form a huge and dark money empire.
This empire reached its peak from the 1950s to the 1970s, and the most famous figures were undoubtedly the four detectives. Among the four detectives, Inspector Hua was the most famous.
On May 14, 1971, the "Prevention of Bribery Ordinance" was promulgated, and an anti-corruption department was added within the police force. The greatest significance of their existence is to share more.
…
Zhuang Shikai lifted up his shirt and inserted the pistol into the belt around his waist. His neck was covered with beads of sweat. His expression was obviously a little nervous. He was about to do something big.
Cai Yuanqi patted the waiter next to him on the shoulder and pretended to be relaxed: "Zhuang Zai, don't be nervous."
"You looked so majestic the day before yesterday when you beat six to one in Temple Street!"
Zhuang Shikai gave a sarcastic smile and explained helplessly: "Brother Qi, uniformed police don't rely on guns to beat people, they rely on sticks."
He let out a long breath and his expression became much more relaxed.
In the gun room, more than a dozen police officers were holding guns, loading ammunition, and doing the same actions as him.
Everyone looked very nervous, but most people suppressed their emotions, causing the gun room to be filled with solemn murderous aura.
Zhuang Shikai glanced at everyone with his gun and remembered everyone's appearance in his heart.
The time went back two months ago, when he was still a fat student at a university in Guangdong Province. After falling asleep watching a movie one night, he woke up and traveled to Hong Kong Island in the 1970s.
His initial identity in this world was a uniformed policeman who was responsible for patrolling the streets with a wooden stick called a baton.
He had only traveled through time for a few days and had heard the legendary story of "Lei Luo" dozens of times, and then he was sure that he had entered the movie world.
Next, with the help of a plug-in system, he caught thieves several times in just two months, performed well, and became a well-known uniformed policeman near Yau Ma Tei.
The "superpower watch" on his wrist is his plug-in.
Whenever a criminal appears or a superior gives an order, corresponding tasks will be issued.
Capturing or killing mission targets will result in certain experience points.
Experience points can be used to level up, and you will gain an attribute point for each level you increase.
Through short-term practice, attribute points can be added to a certain attribute, greatly improving one's physical fitness.
Of course, the system has very strict requirements for him. The trick of finding someone to blame will not work. Only catching the real criminal will count.
As for whether the criminal was paid to be released afterwards, that is none of his business.
"Brother, have you noticed that everyone is from Chaozhou?" After observing the surrounding situation, Zhuang Shikai heard many people communicating privately, and suddenly spoke in Chaozhou dialect to Cai Yuanqi next to him.
He and Cai Yuanqi were both in military uniforms of the Yau Ma Tei Police Department. The two had a good relationship and usually patrolled, ate and smoked together. When he first traveled through time, he often borrowed words from Cai Yuanqi.
Moreover, Cai Yuanqi is a few years older than him. He is a good person and takes good care of him at work. Cai Yuanqi was seen holding the handle of the gun with a calm expression, glanced at him and said: "They are all Chaozhou brothers from various jurisdictions. Brother Luo may have asked us to do this thing."
Lei Luo is the pride of Chaozhou people. He became one of the four detectives on Hong Kong Island and has now been promoted to Chief Inspector Hua. He usually takes great care of the Chaozhou people, and the Chaozhou people are famous for their unity and loyalty. In addition, this is the Central District Police Station in Lei Luo's territory. In fact, it is not difficult for everyone to guess who the big boss behind the scenes is.
Of course, there are first generation, second generation, and even third generation of Chaozhou people whose ancestors immigrated during the Qing Dynasty. However, the years of three generations cannot erase the sense of identity from fellow villagers. What's more, there are now many factions in Hong Kong Island such as the Big Circle Gang, the Vietnam Gang, and the Fuqing Gang. It is impossible to survive without a group. This makes fellow villagers a natural bond of trust, solidly binding a group of people into a community of interests.
After Cai Yuanqi finished speaking, he lowered his voice and asked solemnly: "Brother Zai, didn't you tell me that after this is done, will we all be transferred to plainclothes?"
"I said it." Zhuang Shikai pressed his gun and nodded, knowing that the only person who could be so generous was Brother Luo. Even now everyone is wearing civilian clothes, holding a police gun, and is a real plainclothes detective.
The uniformed police officers of the Chinese in Hong Kong have a low status. A wooden stick is the standard police equipment. Only the "Criminal Investigation Division" formed by the Chinese, commonly known as "plainclothes police", are qualified to carry guns.
In contrast, uniformed police officers such as ghosts and Indians have guns. However, Hong Kong Island is, after all, a Chinese Hong Kong Island. Police officers in Guilo only use force to intimidate people. If we want to truly govern Hong Kong Island, we must rely on the Chinese.
As a result, the Criminal Investigation Department has become a low-level and violent power agency. The plainclothes captain of each jurisdiction is known as the "Inspector", and the maximum is no more than a sergeant-level sergeant, but he has jurisdiction over the black and white lanes of a district and has the qualifications to talk to the ghost superintendent on an equal footing.
To be realistic, with the guns in their hands, the plainclothes agents can get twice as many accounts as the uniformed team every month. For ordinary uniformed police officers in the police industry, being transferred from the military uniform to the plainclothes team is already a promotion and a fortune.
With such an opportunity to get promoted and make a fortune, no one would be willing to give it up! Zhuang Shikai has integrated into this world. In order to protect himself, he has to struggle in the times and fight for his destiny like everyone else!
Anyway, here you go, there are cheats, you can live a cool and domineering life without getting promoted and making a fortune. Are you too sorry for your fate? It’s time to appreciate the style of this era and see what a money empire is!
Lardboy held a black briefcase under his arm. He walked into the room and clapped his hands and said, "Brothers are here! We are all Chaozhou people. Brother Luo wants to ask everyone to help with a big thing."
"Hehehe, everyone knows this person. If we kill him tonight, Brother Luo will not treat you badly." Lardboy handed a photo to the police officers for circulation. Everyone who saw the photo looked at the police officers and their faces suddenly changed. Changed, Lardboy explained with a simple and honest expression: "You are all new faces, it is better for you to do this. After this is done, you will all be transferred to Brother Luo as plainclothes, and you will also get a sum of money." , I hope everyone can help Brother Luo."
In this era, corruption and collusion between police and criminals have long been the rule. There are several gambling stalls and opium dens on each street. How much you pay for small stalls and how much you pay for large dance halls are all clearly marked and paid monthly. It is not the merchants who pay to the tax bureau, but the off-street merchants and upright businesses have to pay everything to the police.
The police all listen to Brother Luo. Brother Luo will not personally come forward to collect the debt. The person who collects the debt on behalf of Brother Luo is Lard Boy. He is the spokesperson of Brother Luo, and what he means is what Brother Luo means.
Zhuang Shikai was the last to read the photo. Based on the previous performance of the guys, he had already guessed who the target was.
