【018】Cement Coffin
On the other side, at the Yau Ma Tei pier.
A black car was parked on the dock.
"Bah, it was clearly your Dongxing people who broke the rules first and stepped into my territory. I retaliated slightly, and you want to make sure I don't see the sun rise the day after tomorrow?"
"Don't you think Dongxing is being a bit too domineering?"
"Fuck your mother! You killed the crow and made this innocent bystander suffer so much, and you still claim you were just retaliating? How dare you even say that?"
Ba Bi was internally ranting, but outwardly he nodded emphatically in agreement with Lin Haowen's words.
"Hahaha, Babi, since you're cooperating with me so well, I'll make sure you have a comfortable journey and won't suffer."
Lin Haowen laughed heartily.
"Mmm~"
Bound tightly and with his mouth sealed, Babi's eyes suddenly widened as he struggled desperately, but all his efforts were clearly in vain.
"After a while, I will send more of my brothers from Tung Sing to find you, so you won't be lonely down there."
Lin Haowen looked out the car window as he finished speaking.
At that moment, three long and two short lights flashed across the dark sea.
Wang Jianjun, who was standing not far from the car, immediately took out his flashlight and turned on the light in four beams: two short and two long.
Soon, a small cargo ship docked at the pier.
Wang Jianjun opened the car door and dragged Ba Bi out of the car.
"Jianjun, when you're making the cement coffin for Babi later, make sure he suffers a little less."
Lin Haowen always keeps his word; if he says he'll make sure Babi has a comfortable journey, he will make sure he does.
"Mmm~"
However, Ba Bi did not seem to appreciate Lin Haowen's "kindness" and looked at Lin Haowen with deep hatred in his eyes.
"Bhabi, be careful in your next life."
Watching Babi writhe and struggle like a maggot, Lin Haowen smiled slightly and watched Wang Jianjun drag Babi onto the fishing boat. Then he took out his phone and dialed a number.
"Jianguo, thank you for making another trip and inviting Babi's wife to work at the Golden Wind Nightclub."
To prevent his wife from being bullied after Ba Bi's death, Lin Haowen decided to personally protect her and give her a stable job that she could enjoy.
Soon, a concrete coffin appeared on the seabed of the Victoria Strait, and the truth of tonight sank to the bottom of the sea along with this concrete coffin.
Fueled by "certain individuals," news of Ba Bi reporting to the police and being killed by Lam Ho-man spread rapidly throughout the Hong Kong underworld.
……
An apartment building in Mong Kok in the early hours of the morning.
Last night, Liang Kun had a big battle with a newly signed young star from Qiankun Film Company, and he is currently fast asleep in bed.
Ring ring ring~
A cell phone ring woke up Liang Kun.
"Which one?"
Liang Kun picked up his phone, his tone extremely displeased.
"Brother Kun, is Babi dead?"
Liang Kun instantly snapped to attention, sitting bolt upright and shouting angrily, "What did you say? Ba Bi is dead? Who killed my good brother Ba Bi?"
"Lin Haowen".
"It's a question," said one of Liang Kun's henchmen cautiously.
"Damn it, didn't that bastard Lin Haowen just kill Crow last night? How did he get involved with Babi again?"
Liang Kun immediately recalled the news he had heard last night: that Lin Haowen had killed two of Tung Sing's top lieutenants in one night. Was he preparing to fight Tung Sing to the death?
"Rumors are circulating that Ba Bi reneged on his promise after delivering the goods to Lin Haowen, reported him to the police, and was subsequently killed by Lin Haowen's men."
"Brother Kun's henchman replied immediately."
"Hmph, Babi gave the goods to Lin Haowen? Lin Haowen stole Babi's goods, didn't he! Damn his mother, that bastard Babi still owes me twenty million!"
After hearing what the henchman said, Liang Kun was already 90% convinced. This guy, Ba Bi, was extremely petty. If Lin Haowen stole his goods, he would be capable of reporting him to the police.
But that's twenty million! That's his money!
"Brother Kun, what's wrong?"
The loud shouts of Liang Kun woke up the little star who was sleeping next to him. Seeing Liang Kun's outburst, she immediately hugged him and said in a seductive voice.
*Snap*
The minor celebrity was met with a powerful slap from Liang Kun.
"Fuck your mother, what are you slutting about? Can't you see I'm furious right now?"
Liang Kun grabbed the young star's hair and pressed her head down.
"Damn it, doesn't Babi have two wives? You take them to the film company to start work right now."
Although Liang Kun was very unhappy, he did not intend to avenge his good brother. He believed that Lin Haowen would be dealt with by the Tung Sing gang, and he did not think that Lin Haowen, a newly risen minor character, could withstand the retaliation from Tung Sing.
What he needs to do now is to recover his losses as much as possible.
"Okay, Brother Kun."
Young Kun's henchman immediately responded.
Upon hearing this, Liang Kun tossed his phone aside, jerked a few times, squinted, and let out a long sigh.
However, just over ten minutes later...
"What did you say? Babi's wife was taken to work at the Golden Wind Nightclub by Lin Haowen's men? And the people from Dongxing even gave her a 20% discount?"
"Lin Haowen, I'll fuck your mother!"
Liang Kun's eyes turned red, and he shouted angrily.
……
On the other side, a hotel in Causeway Bay.
Ring ring ring~
Chan Ho-nam shook his still-sluggish head, picked up his phone, and pressed the answer button.
Last night, he was ready to kill Babi and take over the position, but after waiting for half the night at Red Spider, Babi still hadn't appeared. Frustrated, he left and drank with Chicken and the others until dawn.
"Anan, Babi is dead. You'll have to wait for another chance."
The voice of Boss B came through the receiver.
"Brother B, what's going on?"
Chan Ho-nam instantly regained his senses.
"Ba Bi was killed by Lin Haowen. This guy was quiet before Han Chen died, but he became so fierce after Han Chen died. But that's the end for him. The guys from Dongxing won't let him go."
"Big Boss B said slowly."
"..."
Chen Haonan didn't listen to anything Boss B said. He only had one thought in his mind: Boss B is dead. The red stick position he had just obtained is gone.
"Anan, you're still young. If you work hard, you'll rise to the top sooner or later. But remember one thing: in this world, you can be high-profile, but you can't be arrogant. People like Lin Haowen don't live long."
"What you're fighting for isn't temporary glory, but lifelong glory."
When Boss B saw that there was no response from Chan Ho-nam, he immediately understood what Chan was thinking and offered words of comfort.
"You can't even get temporary glory, yet you want lifelong glory!"
Although Chan Ho-nam inwardly scoffed at Boss B's words, he said aloud, "Brother B, I understand."
"Wait patiently for your opportunity, don't rush."
Boss B was hoping Chan Ho-nam wouldn't rise to power, so he kept working for him, but he still had to give Chan Ho-nam some motivational speeches.
"Um."
Chan Ho-nam absentmindedly hummed in agreement, hung up Boss B's call, and then dialed Chicken's number.
"Pheasant, come drink with me."
"Damn, Nan-ge, have you forgotten that we drank until 3 a.m. last night? It's only 7 a.m. now, and you want to drink again?"
Are we brothers?
"Okay, I'll be right there."
The pheasant shook its still heavy head and reluctantly agreed.
An hour later, at a bar in Causeway Bay.
"Chicken, I waited eight years for this opportunity to get a permanent position, and then that bastard Babi got killed by Lin Haowen! Damn it!"
Chan Ho-nam downed a large glass of beer and loudly expressed his dissatisfaction.
Upon hearing Chen Haonan's words, the four men standing nearby—Chicken, Big Tin Yee, Nest Skin, and Bao Skin—firmly memorized the name "Lam Ho Man."
Meanwhile, at the Peninsula Hotel.
After seeing Ba Bi off last night, Lin Haowen booked a suite nearby and had a good night's rest.
"Last night, acting on a tip, police seized 357 kilograms of drugs and killed five armed drug dealers on the spot..."
Watching the eloquent host on the TV screen, Lin Haowen picked up his phone and dialed a number.
"Inspector Wong, when are you going to hold your promotion celebration?"
After the call connected, Lin Haowen asked with a smile.
"I'm so busy I don't get to sleep until six in the morning. Can't you let this old guy get some more rest? If I die from overwork, it won't do you any good."
Huang Bingyao's annoyed voice came through the receiver.
"Wow, Inspector Wong, you weren't like this when you were being interviewed by the TV station..."
Huang Bingyao interrupted Lin Haowen directly, "Speak your mind, or shut up!"
"Inspector Wong, I've done you such a great service, could you do me a small favor? Help our informant in Tung Sing pinpoint the location of Smiling Tiger."
"Lin Haowen, what are you trying to do...?"
Huang Bingyao's expression changed slightly.
"They've all given orders that I won't see the sunrise tomorrow. I can't just wait for them to come and kill me, can I?"
Lin Haowen's tone was unusually calm.
