Chapter 39 Your undercover agents were good, but they're mine now.
Shen Shaofeng's words, which struck at the heart, made Lu Qichang want to refute them, but he couldn't think of a reason to do so.
Yes, of course I would protect undercover cop Luo Ji, but what about Huang Zhicheng, who has already turned to the dark side? Would he protect Chen Yongren?
Shen Shaofeng twirled his marker and walked up to Lu Qichang: "Lu Sir, over the years, you've sent undercover agents into the Ni family or the five major leaders, right? Does Huang Zhicheng have access to the files of these agents?"
Lu Qichang had a cigarette in his mouth, his lips moved but he didn't speak, his expression said it all.
Wong Kai-fai suddenly stood up: "Fung, what do you mean? Is this information something you, an inspector from the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau, should be concerned with?"
"Inspector Wong, it is precisely because I am an inspector from the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau that I have to intervene."
Shen Shaofeng pretended not to see Li Wenbin winking at him, and pressed his hands down, bracing himself on the coffee table.
"The O-Division's duty is to investigate organized crime and triads, and the Ni family is our target."
"Now, Inspector Wong Chi-shing of the West Kowloon Regional Crime Unit, who has been investigating the Ni family, has obtained information on the undercover agents our police sent to the Ni family. He has also been found to have a very deep connection with the Ni family's boss, Han Chen, and his wife."
"If these undercover agents are in danger because of Wong Chi-shing, it's not just an internal matter for your Serious Crimes Unit, but a matter of the success or failure of the entire operation to crack down on the Ni family, and a matter of life and death for several brothers. As the frontline commander of the O-Division's operation to crack down on the Ni family, I have the right and the responsibility to understand and participate in the handling of this matter."
Logically speaking, Huang Qifa, as the chief inspector, should have a natural advantage in rank over Shen Shaofeng.
But Shen Shaofeng's words were forceful and reasonable, based on both police precedent and the moral high ground of protecting his colleague.
Huang Qifa was speechless for a moment, then slumped down and turned his head away, no longer speaking.
Seeing that the atmosphere had become somewhat tense, Li Wenbin, as the highest-ranking commander present, took out cigarettes and offered them to Huang Qifa and Shen Shaofeng.
"We're all on the same side, let's talk this out. Old Huang, Shao Feng was just doing his job, he didn't mean to target the Major Crimes Unit. Right, Shao Feng?"
With a "snap," Shen Shaofeng lit Huang Qifa's cigarette first: "Yes, Huang Sir, I may sound a bit harsh, but I'm just worried about our undercover brothers."
Huang Qifa took a drag of his cigarette and turned to Lu Qichang: "Ah Chang, Fengzai is right. You decide what to do."
Clearly, this old fox accepted the way out offered by the two from the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau (OCTB).
"Sir Shen, what exactly do you want to say? Just say it."
Shen Shaofeng sat down again and said, "Inspector Lu, my suggestion is that before taking any action against Huang Zhicheng, we must prioritize ensuring the absolute safety of our two brothers who are undercover in the Ni family, Luo Ji and Chen Yongren."
Upon hearing this, Lu Qichang suddenly stood up and stared directly at Shen Shaofeng—their undercover information was classified, how could Shen Shaofeng know so much about it?
Li Wenbin and Huang Qifa both showed expressions of surprise.
Shen Shaofeng took a drag of his cigarette and met Lu Qichang's gaze calmly.
"Inspector Lu, there's no need to be surprised. I've reviewed all the files related to the Ni family on the police force's intranet over the past ten years."
"Former police officer Luo Ji was dismissed nine years ago due to a mistake in handling a case. Two years later, he joined the Ni family and became Ni Yongxiao's personal bodyguard, a position he has held for seven years now."
"Former police cadet Chan Wing-yan was expelled from the police academy five years ago for concealing his identity. He was later imprisoned for fighting. After his release, he became active in Tsim Sha Tsui, working for Uncle Ni's third brother. Recently, he has been given important responsibilities by Ni Wing-hau and is often taken by his side..."
"Although there have been many former police officers in the history of the police force who have been dismissed for various reasons, or even voluntarily left to go into the underworld, don't you two officers think it's a bit too coincidental that Lo Kai and Chan Wing-yan appeared next to Ngai Wing-hau one after the other?"
Lu Qichang was unaware that Shen Shaofeng was a time traveler with a god-like perspective. He was speechless with shock at Shen Shaofeng's ability to "deduce" the truth based solely on this information.
Li Wenbin and Huang Qifa didn't know the specific details of the undercover agent, but judging from Lu Qichang's expression at this moment, they already understood that Shen Shaofeng's words were correct.
Now that things have come to this, there's no point in hiding it anymore. Lu Qichang said, "Luo Ji... was sent to the Ni family by me. As for Chen Yongren, unfortunately, his contact is Huang Zhicheng, who is also Ni Yongxiao's half-brother."
Upon hearing this, Li Wenbin and Huang Qifa exchanged a glance and roared, "Has Huang Zhicheng gone mad? Sending someone like that as an undercover agent?"
Shen Shaofeng feigned surprise, opened his mouth, and after a moment said, "Gentlemen, now is not the time to dwell on these things. The most urgent matter is how to deal with these two undercover officers?"
"What's your opinion?"
"Two paths."
Shen Shaofeng held up two fingers: "First, immediately initiate emergency procedures to evacuate Luo Ji and Chen Yongren. However, the risk is that this might alert the Ni family, rendering all the hard work the two had done undercover futile."
"second."
He pointed to himself: "Until we completely rule out any other corrupt cops in the West Kowloon Regional Crime Unit besides Wong Chi-shing, I will temporarily take over command of these two undercover agents in secret."
"After I had everything arranged, I notified the Internal Investigation Department to secretly arrest Huang Zhicheng."
After thinking for a moment, Lu Qichang immediately raised a question: "Since the final decision is to take action against Huang Zhicheng, it's still possible that Han Chen will be alerted."
Shen Shaofeng was prepared. He shook his finger and said, "It's different. If we arrest him directly now, we can't predict how Han Chen and his wife, or even Ni Yongxiao, will react. We can only react passively, and the risks are uncontrollable."
"But if we change our thinking and turn Huang Zhicheng into a time bomb that we can control and detonate at the right time, the situation will be completely different."
Seeing the three officers' puzzled expressions, Shen Shaofeng added, "Provide the safety of Luo Ji and Chen Yongren, we can use Huang Zhicheng's relationship with Han Chen to spread some false information, such as letting Han Chen and his wife know that Ni Yongxiao may have secretly hired someone to investigate Ni Kun's murder case, and then..."
After listening to Shen Shaofeng's words, the three looked at each other in bewilderment. Putting themselves in his shoes, if they were Han Chen or Huang Zhicheng, they would have been played to death by Shen Shaofeng without even knowing it.
Thankfully, this person is one of our own... The three of them had the same thought at the same time.
Lu Qichang took a deep breath: "Sir Shen, I've been a police officer for twenty years and consider myself experienced, but I have to admit, when it comes to dealing with these gangsters, you're the best."
He gave a thumbs up.
Before Shen Shaofeng could even feign modesty, he solemnly declared, "In that case, I agree to hand over the undercover files of Luo Ji and Chen Yongren to you. I hope you will keep your word, protect them, and then eliminate the Ni family. Otherwise, I will fight you to the death!"
Shen Shaofeng extended his right hand and shook hands firmly with Lu Qichang, solemnly saying, "I promise!"
