Chapter 58 Make Good Use of It

  "It's getting more and more interesting!" In the provincial hall conference room, a group of leaders gathered together again. The number one leader stroked his shiny head and said: "Two fake public security drug dealers were found dead in the wilderness, what do you think?"

  "It must have been done by Ye Ying." He Xing got up and said: "The scene of the crime had tire tracks from a tractor that Ye Ying usually drove, and both victims were killed with one knife cut, which is a common method used by Chinese detectives. Also, the border inspection station on the other side confirmed that Ye Ying did not come to sell 'fruit' yesterday."

  "Why did Night Hawk want to kill those two people?" Although most people had thought of the reason, the captain still asked, after all, he wanted to give young people a chance to show off.

  "This is probably Li Wancai's doing, they tried to steal a chicken but ended up losing rice." He Xing didn't mince words and climbed up the ladder that the leader had set up. "After the ghost was exposed, Uncle Cai and Li Wancai became more cautious, although Night Hawk had repeatedly achieved great success, they still hadn't fully gained their trust. So this time, they directed this fake police play to test Night Hawk, but their actors weren't professional enough and were recognized by Night Hawk. Night Hawk killed the two fake police for two reasons: first, to show Li Wancai and others his determination - he dared to kill even police, absolutely not an undercover agent. Second, to take advantage of the opportunity to kill those two drug dealers, which can also be considered as eliminating evil for the people. According to investigation, both of the killed drug dealers had homicide cases on their backs, deserving death."

  "Playing dumb and getting rid of the harm." The leader nodded in approval: "This kid has both courage and strategy, with a bold vision beyond others. He's indeed a rare good seedling. After Operation Night Hawk is over, get him into the public security system."

  "This is a big trouble," said the third leader gloomily. "Others are easy to deal with, but Night Hawk is that old man's person, and it's unlikely we can get people from him."

  "As you know", mentioning the military district commander, No. 1 leader didn't back down either, "How's the investigation of the 8th going? Without taking care of this person, Operation Night Hawk will be difficult to proceed."

  "Almost done" said the third leader with a smile: "Beijing attaches great importance to this matter, after hearing the report, secretly set up an elimination group, which has quietly entered the city, and is said to have already locked in on the target. It's believed that there will be results soon. The top suggests we suspend Night Eagle operation before handling it properly by the 8th."

  "We've done this long ago," the chief said indignantly. "These people are inefficient, and by the time they make a decision, ten night owls will have died. In short, the Night Owl operation is sealed and locked away, and even if the Heavenly King himself came on the 8th, he wouldn't be allowed to see it until things were handled properly."

  ……

  "Little Fatty, what's wrong with you?" Lin Sheng asked sympathetically as he looked at the drunk and disheveled Little Fatty: "You seem to have lost your spirit these past few days."

  "Get out, who the hell doesn't have a conscience?" Taking advantage of his intoxication, Fatso loudly shouted: "Stop pretending to be a good person..."

  "Damn it" Li Wancai suddenly jumped out and kicked the fat man, "If you can't drink, don't drink. If you get drunk, you lose face. You even dare to push my nephew, I'll beat you up."

  "Alright, Seventh Uncle" Lin Sheng cooperated very well with Li Wancai's tone and said "He's in a bad mood, don't blame him."

  "Consider yourself lucky, kid." Li Wancai glared at the fatty and led Lin Sheng away, worried that the fatty would lose his temper and reveal the fake police affair.

  "These days are windy and tense, no tasks, you rest well and nourish your spirit, next Wednesday Seventh Uncle will take you to see someone."

  "Thank you, Seventh Uncle," Lin Sheng excitedly said: "Everything will be done according to your arrangement." Lin Sheng's blindly obedient expression made Li Wancai feel wave after wave of pleasure, his plan for revenge was being implemented step by step.

  "Uh-huh, with Seventh Uncle around, no one will dare bully you, go back, Ah Hong is waiting for you!"

  Although Li Wancai's acting was terrible and disgusting, Lin Sheng still silently cooperated with him, his goal was only one, to achieve a complete victory in the Night Eagle plan.

  "Come back and pull" returned to the bedroom, Ah Hong gently helped Lin Sheng change his clothes, feeling her warmth, Lin Sheng's heart was very calm, he knew that this tenderness contained poison.

  As Li Wancai said, Lin Sheng had nothing to do these days and wandered around aimlessly all day long. Perhaps after Li Wancai's guidance, the fatty suddenly became more enthusiastic towards Lin Sheng than before, but from his enthusiasm, Lin Sheng felt a hint of murderous aura, which was only revealed when facing mortal enemies.

  "This person is very dangerous! Lin Sheng calmly analyzed."

  "Nephew, follow me!" Two days before Wednesday, Li Wancai carried two AK47s and called Lin Shengdao: "Let's have some fun with guns while nothing is happening."

  "Good!" Lin Sheng replied with a smile.

  "Right in front of you is the target, take a shot and show me." Li Wancai pointed to the target fifty meters away and handed Lin Sheng an AK47.

  Taking the gun, Lin Sheng awkwardly held it and kept pulling the trigger. "Why can't I fire this broken gun?" he roared in frustration.

  "Have you ever fired a gun before?" Li Wancai was very satisfied with Lin Sheng's performance, and it would be really strange if a poor boy from the countryside could play with an AK-47.

  "Of course I have played," Lin said with a look of discontent. "When I was at home, I often used to hit the pigeons next door with one shot."

  "It's fine, it's fine~" Li Wancai said with a "happy" tone, "I was worried you hadn't even touched a gun before!" As he spoke, Li Wancai's phone rang at the right moment. After speaking in an affected manner for a few sentences, he took Lin Sheng back to the base. The purpose of the test had been achieved, and he wouldn't really teach Lin Sheng how to shoot; in his opinion, this would be nurturing a tiger as a source of future harm.

  Back at the base, Lin Sheng was in a good mood. Although Li Wancai didn't say anything, his childish actions repeatedly conveyed to Lin Sheng that a storm was approaching, and the source of this storm might be the mysterious meeting two days later. He wondered if the matter on the 8th had been settled, but every time he thought about it, Lin Sheng felt a chill down his spine, as if a pair of evil eyes were staring at him in secret.

  ……

  "There's a result." In the provincial hall's secret conference room, several officials from Beijing's Discipline Inspection Commission were briefing a few leaders in front of a large screen. "According to the intelligence provided by Night Hawk and the analysis materials from your department, after our working group's secret investigation, we have now identified the 8th person who was bribed by the black box operation. Everyone please take a look, it's this person."

  "As they gazed at the familiar face on the big screen, everyone gasped in unison. The head of the Discipline Inspection Commission continued: 'This man should not be unfamiliar to you all; born in a rural area, he started working seven or eight years ago, joined the Party in 1980, and was transferred to the Provincial Politics and Law Committee ten years ago to take charge of supervision work as a deputy department-level cadre. The timing of his betrayal is ominous. On March 30th this year, while taking advantage of his position to review case files at the Provincial Public Security Department, he discovered the covert operation 'Ghost', and then transmitted Comrade Ghost's information to the outside world through an underground organization's contact point in the city, directly leading to Comrade Ghost's tragic death. A surveillance camera from a branch of China Bank captured a video clip of him meeting with someone from the underground organization."

  "Has the man been caught?" The First Leader asked after taking a drag on his cigarette.

  "The leader of the group said seriously, 'Our investigation has been in a state of absolute secrecy. Only those present here know that we exist. We'd like to discuss with you how to handle the matter of No. 8.'"

  "There's no need to say that," He Xing said indignantly. "Just capture and execute them directly, to avenge the ghost." After all, he was still a young cadre, and his thinking wasn't deep enough.

  "Shut up!" The leader glared at He Xing and said, "It's rare to have such a big traitor, it would be a waste not to make good use of him."

  "That's what it means, so we're told not to move him for the time being." Except Captain Jian smiled and said: "Beijing has secretly authorized you, you can capture No. 8 at any time."

  "Thank you, superior leaders!" The superiors excitedly shook hands with the members of the traitor-hunting team. As a great strategist once said, everything has two sides. While it's terrifying to have such a huge traitor, discovering one is equally valuable.
