Reborn in Hong Kong Island, I can see loyalty

Chapter 596 Appointment Finalized

The burly man pushed open the door. The warehouse was pitch black. He went in first, and Ah Kun hesitated for a moment before following him in.

The moment Ah Kun stepped into the warehouse, Da Fei shouted, "Make your move!"

Before he finished speaking, the brothers who had been lying in ambush nearby rushed out instantly. The sound of steel pipes and machetes clashing together broke the silence of the dock.

The burly man in the warehouse reacted quickly, immediately pulling out a pistol and turning to fire, but Big Head, who was prepared, kicked him in the wrist.

"Ah!" The burly man screamed in agony as his pistol fell to the ground and his wrist was dislocated from a kick.

Before he could react, Da Tou stepped forward, grabbed his neck with his arm, and slammed his knee into his lower back, forcibly pinning him to the ground, rendering him unable to move.

Ah Kun was so scared that his legs went weak. He turned around and tried to run away, but he was stopped by Da Fei as soon as he reached the warehouse door.

Dafei kicked him in the back of the knee, and Ah Kun fell to his knees with a thud, wincing in pain and unable to get up.

The whole process took only a dozen seconds, was clean and efficient, and didn't cause much of a commotion.

Dafei walked into the warehouse, turned on his flashlight, and the beam swept over the two people pinned to the ground, finally landing on the black briefcase:

"Open the box."

One of the brothers stepped forward, snatched the suitcase, opened it, and found it full of stacks of Hong Kong dollars, neatly stacked.

"Brother Fei, it's all cash, about five million! It should be Ah Le's reserve fund!"

Dafei nodded, took out his mobile phone, and dialed Ye Haoxuan's number:

"Brother Xuan, it's done! We've caught the guy and intercepted the funds, about five million."

"Okay." Ye Haoxuan's voice came from the phone. "Wait, the Haojiang police will be here soon. Hand over the person and this reserve fund to them. Remember to find Ah Kun's pager and give it to the police. Use this clue to find Ah Le's whereabouts."

"understand!"

After hanging up the phone, Dafei ordered his men to tie up the two men and keep watch over them.

Not long after, the sound of police sirens could be heard in the distance, getting closer and closer.

"Brother Fei, the police are here," Big Head reminded him.

"Okay." Dafei waved his hand. "Brothers, let's move out and meet at the nightclub."

The group quietly left the old dock, boarded a van waiting at the intersection, and slowly drove away.

Through the car window, Dafei saw the police car lights illuminating the entrance to the pier, and a smile appeared on his lips—he had done what Brother Xuan asked him to do, and it was time to slowly establish a firm foothold in this territory of Haojiang.

......

Hong Kong Island.

Ye Haoxuan's car drove away from the Hung Hing Hall.

As night deepened, the streetlights cast long shadows on the road, and the sea breeze, carrying a salty, cool feel, seeped in through the gaps in the car windows.

Ye Haoxuan leaned back in the passenger seat, his fingertips lightly tapping his knees, reviewing the layout of Haojiang in his mind—Xing Le Nightclub had gained a foothold, intercepted Ah Le's reserve funds, and also captured Ah Kun, which could be considered as initially opening up the situation.

"Brother Xuan, I've already notified Qian Wendi. He said he'll be returning to Hong Kong Island from Macau first thing tomorrow morning." Tony gripped the steering wheel, glancing at Ye Haoxuan out of the corner of his eye. "The police should be able to find out Ah Le's whereabouts soon. Should we arrange for the brothers to keep an eye on the border in advance to prevent him from running back to Hong Kong Island?"

“No rush.” Ye Haoxuan opened his eyes, his gaze clear. “Ah Le is hiding overseas and won’t dare to come back anytime soon. Have the brothers keep an eye on the remnants in Hong Kong and prevent them from causing trouble in the chaos. My most important task right now is to wait for news about the police force appointments.”

Tony nodded and said no more.

The car smoothly entered the city, and the number of pedestrians on the streets gradually decreased, with only a few night food stalls still lit up.

Ye Haoxuan told Tony to go back to the base to rest first, while he drove to Shui Ling's place. After all the trouble he had caused, he wanted to go see Shui Ling first.

The car stopped downstairs at Shui Ling's residence, and Ye Haoxuan tiptoed upstairs.

Pushing open the door, the small light in the living room was still on. Shui Ling was asleep, lying on the table, with an unfinished handkerchief beside her.

Ye Haoxuan walked over, gently picked her up, placed her on the bed in the bedroom, and covered her with a blanket.

Looking at Shui Ling's peaceful sleeping face, Ye Haoxuan's lips curled into a gentle smile.

Having been an undercover agent for many years, he had witnessed too much violence and intrigue. The peace and stability before him was something he was desperately trying to protect.

He tucked the blanket in, turned around, gently closed the door, lay down on the sofa in the living room, and closed his eyes to rest.

The next morning, sunlight streamed through the gaps in the curtains and fell on Ye Haoxuan's face.

He opened his eyes, and as soon as he got up, the pager in his pocket started beeping.

He took it out and saw it was a message from Chief Huang, the handwriting was clear: "Haoxuan, your appointment procedures have been completed. Report to the Major Crimes Unit of the Central and Western District Police Station at 9:00 a.m. tomorrow with all your documents. I will be waiting for you at the police station."

The moment Ye Haoxuan saw the message, his tense nerves completely relaxed, and a huge weight was lifted from his heart.

After years of hard work undercover and countless struggles on the brink of life and death, this day has finally arrived—a day to return to the police force with dignity and to wear the police uniform I've always dreamed of.

"You're awake?" Shui Ling came out of the kitchen carrying breakfast. Seeing Ye Haoxuan, she smiled and said, "I just heard the pager go off. Is there good news?"

"Yes, good news." Ye Haoxuan walked over and gently hugged her from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder, his tone relieved. "I'll report to the police station tomorrow and officially rejoin the police force."

Shui Ling paused for a moment in her hand holding the plate, then turned around and hugged Ye Haoxuan tightly, her eyes instantly reddening:

"That's great... Haoxuan, that's great! All the suffering over the years has finally paid off."

"I can stay by your side peacefully from now on." Ye Haoxuan patted her back and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. "After breakfast, I'll go to the construction site to see Fang Ting and tell her the good news."

After a quick breakfast, Ye Haoxuan drove to the seaside villa construction site.

As soon as we entered the construction site, we heard the roar of pile drivers, and the workers were busy with their respective tasks.

Xiao Fangting, wearing a safety helmet, was discussing blueprints with the construction team leader, her forehead glistening with fine beads of sweat.

"Little Tingting." Ye Haoxuan walked over.

Xiao Fangting turned around and immediately came to greet him: "Haoxuan, you're here! Did the matter in Haojiang go smoothly?"

"It's been resolved smoothly." Ye Haoxuan took out a tissue, wiped her sweat, and said with a smile, "I have good news for you. I'm going to the police station to report for duty tomorrow and officially rejoin the police force."

Xiao Fangting's tears welled up instantly. She covered her mouth, struggling to hold back her sobs:

"That's great...we can finally live a peaceful life."

"Okay, you don't have to worry anymore." Ye Haoxuan hugged her gently. "Don't overwork yourself at the villa. If there's anything you can't handle, ask Tony. Don't try to tough it out on your own."

"I know, don't worry." After calming down, Xiao Fangting pointed to the foundation behind her. "The foundation is all laid. Next, we can build the main frame. Once you're settled, we can start planning the renovation."
