Chapter 26: Narcotics Transaction

  Tai Shu Zheng Yu silently listened to this audio material, Tai Shu Zheng Yu could tell that it was two people on the phone, but didn't know how Lao He Shang had eavesdropped on them.

  "This time there are fifty kilograms of goods, can you finish eating them?"

  "No problem, as long as you have goods, money is no problem, when will you deliver?"

  "This time we won't go to the usual place, the police have already detected that location. This time we'll switch to the old warehouse for the transaction, at 3 am the day after tomorrow."

  "Alright, it's settled then."

  The short phone call lasted only over ten seconds, and Tai Shu Zheng Yu furrowed his brow. What was the old place? Where was the old warehouse? As for the "goods" they mentioned, Tai Shu Zheng Yu could guess eight or nine out of ten that it was something like drugs. Lao He Shang had deliberately placed this audio material here, and it seemed that this phone call was a conversation between the Tiger Gang and the drug lord.

  Tai Shu Zheng Yu looked at the creation time of the audio and found that it was just yesterday's event. Tai Shu Zheng Yu thought for a moment, didn't this mean that they would start trading tonight? Although Tai Shu Zheng Yu couldn't expose the information he had in hand, if he spread the news, he believed it would be a significant blow to the Tiger Gang, even if it wouldn't shake their foundation.

  Uncle Zheng Yu's first thought was to call Cheng Kai Guo. In Uncle Zheng Yu's view, apart from the National Security Bureau not having received bribes from the Tiger Gang, all other judicial departments had a close relationship with the Tiger Gang. As for whether the National Security Bureau would handle this matter, Uncle Zheng Yu could only know after making the phone call.

  Tai Shu Zhengyu didn't hesitate, directly picked up his phone and dialed Cheng Keguo's number. When he heard Cheng Keguo's voice on the other end of the line, Tai Shu Zhengyu smiled and said: "Cheng Ge, are you busy?"

  "Haha, not busy, these two days are relatively free." Cheng Kai Guo chuckled on the phone. Tai Shu Zheng Yu said: "Cheng Ge, I have something to tell you." Cheng Kai Guo's originally lazy body sitting in the office chair, hearing that Tai Shu Zheng Yu had something to say, straightened up and asked: "What is it?"

  "I received news that tomorrow night at 3 am, the Tiger Gang will have a drug deal, with about 50 kilograms of drugs involved. The location is at the old warehouse." Tai Shu Zhengyu revealed the information he knew. Cheng Kai Guo was shocked and asked: "Is what you said true?" Fifty kilograms of drugs, if convicted, would be enough to behead a hundred people. How could such a large drug deal not shock Cheng Kai Guo?

  A 100-kilogram drug deal is a huge case no matter where it's placed. Uncle Zheng Yu said with certainty, "This is absolutely true, as long as the Tiger Gang doesn't know that the information has been leaked, it's definitely real." Uncle Zheng Yu was so confident because he believed in Old Monk's abilities, and with Old Monk's abilities, this kind of thing would never go wrong. If not for this matter, Old Monk wouldn't have gone to great lengths to create an audio recording and put it in these materials.

  "Alright, I'll call the Narcotics Unit and the Criminal Police Brigade now." Cheng Kai Guo had known Uncle Zheng Yu for some time, and with Uncle Zheng Yu's character and identity, he would never joke about this matter. After all, Uncle Zheng Yu was his superior, albeit a nominal one, and also a high-ranking official within their organization. Would he need to joke about this matter?

  Tai Shu Zheng Yu's response to Cheng Kai Guo was not unexpected, as these things were originally not closely related to the National Security Bureau. However, if Cheng Kai Guo really called and notified the Criminal Police Brigade and the Narcotics Unit, they would probably go there in vain and wouldn't see a single bit of drugs.

  Tai Shu Zheng Yu said: "Cheng Ge, this matter can be discussed with Mayor Cheng, but it must be kept confidential. The influence of the Tiger Gang in C City is something you're more familiar with than I am. If even a hint of wind leaks out, tonight's operation will likely be for nothing."

  Tai Shu Zheng Yu didn't directly mention that officials in C City were severely corrupt, only slightly alluding to it. However, based on Cheng Kai Guo's many years of experience in officialdom, he should have been able to infer the meaning behind his words.

  Cheng Kai knew the meaning of Tai Shu's words, although the anti-mafia campaign had little to do with them. Since Tai Shu opened his mouth, plus his relationship with the National Security Bureau, this matter would be agreed upon by those above. This was also a way to eliminate harm from society. Cheng Kai understood that C City was what it was like, and he knew better than Tai Shu. If the Tiger Gang didn't have a protective umbrella at the top, could they dominate C City? Such a protective umbrella came from the Tiger Gang's bribery with money.

  The Lao Hu Bang's bribery of officials in C City was known to Cheng Kai Guo, but they had no evidence and could not shake the Lao Hu Bang at all. Even if there were some clues, it would not be enough to bring down the Lao Hu Bang, so they did not take action for a long time. However, this drug trafficking case is believed to be able to give the Lao Hu Bang a devastating blow.

  "Alright, let's handle this matter." Cheng Kai Guo replied. In response to Cheng Kai Guo's agreement, Tai Shu Zheng Yu smiled and said: "Cheng Ge, that's settled then. Next time we have time, let's go out for a meal." Putting away his phone, Tai Shu Zheng Yu had originally wanted to delete these materials, but after thinking about it, he encrypted the documents instead and hid them away.

  Tai Shu Zheng Yu suddenly heard someone knocking on the door, so he closed his laptop and quickly walked out. As soon as he opened the door, it was Shi Ruo Han. Tai Shu Zheng Yu stepped aside, smiling: "Come in." Shi Ruo Han was wearing a shoulder-baring T-shirt today, with a pair of denim shorts below, and a pair of three-inch high heels on her feet, with light makeup on her face, looking refreshing and radiant, making Tai Shu Zheng Yu's eyes light up.

  Shi Ruohan walked in naturally and sat down in the living room, saying: "You can't have just woken up, can you?" Tai Shu gave Shi Ruohan a glass of water and also sat down, saying: "I've been up for a long time. I just went to school for a bit and just got back."

  After finishing, both of them didn't know what to say for a while, and the atmosphere became a bit dull. Shi Ruohan wanted to say something, but as a girl, she didn't dare to speak up, while Tai Shu Zhengyu was like an old stump, and both of them fell silent for a while. Shi Ruohan faced with such a dull atmosphere, broke it at once.

  "It's almost noon, you haven't eaten yet, let's go eat together." Shi Ruohan didn't mention anything about yesterday's events, and Tai Shu Zheng Yu naturally wouldn't bring it up at this time. Seeing that it was almost noon, Tai Shu Zheng Yu subconsciously nodded his head, not knowing what was going on, and hadn't thought of refusing Shi Ruohan's suggestion.

  Shi Ruohan's face lit up with a faint smile, and she naturally stood up, pulling Ta Shu Zhengyu's hand as they walked out. When Ta Shu Zhengyu's hand was gently held by her soft hands, the tender feeling made his heart skip a beat, and he suddenly smiled silently.

  The two of them didn't go to any high-end place for dinner, but instead chose a small restaurant not far from downstairs. Driving a luxurious BMW to this small restaurant for dinner, and bringing along a very beautiful girl, this scene was seen by some people, who were instantly stunned. Even the owner of the restaurant saw Tai Shu Zheng Yu, he was also stunned, his own restaurant is just an ordinary one, how could such a young master bring his girlfriend to eat at this kind of place? It's really hard to believe. Anyway, guests are always welcome, so the boss naturally welcomed Tai Shu Zheng Yu and wouldn't refuse him entry.

  This small restaurant naturally wouldn't have any private rooms, so the two of them just sat in the main hall. They casually ordered three or four small stir-fries and slowly started eating. As it got closer to noon, more people came to eat, and everyone who came in couldn't help but notice Ta Shu Zheng Yu and the other person - one was handsome and charming, the other beautiful and elegant - and they were actually appearing in such a restaurant, which made people's hearts feel slightly surprised.

  The two of them seemed to ignore the strange looks from others, naturally eating their meal and chatting. Tai Shu Zheng swallowed a mouthful of food, looked at Shi Ruo Han, and said: "I'm going to attend military training tomorrow, it's for a month." Tai Shu Zheng didn't know why himself, but he wanted to tell Shi Ruo Han about this matter.

  Shi Ruohan tasted a few mouthfuls of food, then put down her chopsticks and looked at Tai Shu Zhengyu. Seeing that he was looking at her, Shi Ruohan nodded slightly and replied, "Mm-hmm." Shi Ruohan knew that Tai Shu Zhengyu's identity was not simple, but she didn't know if he still needed to attend the new student military training. However, Shi Ruohan wouldn't ask; since Tai Shu Zhengyu had said so, it must be true.

  "I..."

  "I..." Both of them suddenly spoke at the same time, and the same words left both of them stunned. Then again in unison they said: "You go first." This made both of them a bit dazed. The two looked at each other, and couldn't help but burst out laughing. This laugh instantly made the atmosphere between the two return to normal.

  Tai Shu Zheng Yu didn't expect that he and Shi Ruo Han would say the same two sentences at the same time, using the same words. Tai Shu Zheng Yu chuckled and said: "I just wanted to tell you, from now on, sleep well at night, don't sleep on the sofa anymore." Tai Shu Zheng Yu's words were originally a simple concern, but Shi Ruo Han heard them with a different meaning.
