"We just received news that the murderer named Liao Jingxuan confessed in the hospital that Song Tianyao was the mastermind. Song Tianyao has now been taken to the Police Station by the Foreign Devil to assist in the investigation."
Lin Xiaohe's eyes narrowed slightly, and he smiled, "Really? What did you say to that Inspector General Qiao Dingguo?"
"One hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars, that's the answer. As long as Mr. Lin stays in the Yau Ma Tei Police Station, the other party will have to stay here too."
"Detective Chief Inspector Yan, Song Tianyao, who was asked to come to the Police Station to assist in the investigation, has been brought in." A Wai and two men in Uniformed Branch led Song Tianyao into the interrogation room.
Hearing footsteps, Lin Xiaohe, who was sitting in a chair, turned his head to look at the door. Beside him was lawyer Ji Wenming. Just then, Song Tianyao was stepping into the room, also looked up at Lin Xiaohe.
The two met for the first time formally at the Yau Ma Tei Police Station.
"Is this your first day on the job?! Take him to the next room." The moment the two locked eyes, Yan Hung's heart nearly stopped. He jumped up from his seat as if his bottom had been burned, yelling at A Wai.
"You had your men frame me, bringing me to the Police Station in the middle of the night? The innocent have nothing to fear, Mr. Lin." Song Tianyao stood at the door, his face cold, Lin Xiaohe with a hint of resentment.
Lin Xiaohe placed his hands on the table and said calmly, "The innocent are innocent, Mr. Song."
"I haven't finished speaking, Mr. Lin. What I said was, 'The innocent are innocent,' but Mr. Lin may not be innocent." Urged on by A Wai, Song Tianyao turned and walked towards the door. "Anyway, we'll all stay here for a maximum of twelve hours. After twelve hours, we'll go out and discuss the issue of innocence and innocence."
"Mr. Lin, I'll go to the next room to check." After Song Tianyao left, Yan Hung hurriedly got up, explained to Lin Xiaohe, and walked outside.
With only a few people left in the room, including Lawyer Chen behind Lin Xiaohe, he spoke softly, "Mr. Lin, we contacted Dr. Ronnie before we arrived. He has prepared your medical records, so you can leave the Police Station at any time to go to his hospital to complete the admission procedures due to your health condition."
"The Lin Family has many members, while Song Tianyao is only one person. He's here, and I'm here. Like Tian Ji's horse racing strategy, I consider him the best horse, and I consider myself the best horse as well. Now, there are also my eldest brother, second brother, A-Sen outside. If it's true that Song Tianyao is being investigated, Pedro Lobo, who is behind him, will likely cut his losses to avoid getting burned. He'll make sure my eldest brother, second brother, A-Sen find out Pedro Lobo's reaction to this within four hours, no matter how much it costs. If Pedro Lobo doesn't react, I'll go to the hospital. If Pedro Lobo does react, find a way to pass a message to Liao Jingxuan, insisting that he stick to Song Tianyao dismantle the facade he's built."
As he spoke, Song Tianyao, sitting in the interrogation room next door, said to Ji Wenming beside him, "I've done everything I could think of and calculate. All that's left is to sit here and watch how the Lin Family is torn apart, or how I myself am torn apart."
Chapter 404 Hospital Corridor
Lin Xiao qia stood on the Fish Tail Rock Pier, frowning as he looked at Tang Boqi across the way. "Why did Song Tianyao ask you to meet me here? Aren't you his enemy? Now you've become one of his people?"
"I don't know either. Maybe Song Tianyao has no one else to use tonight. Mr. Lin, are you aware that Lin Xiaohe was taken away by the Police Station to assist in the investigation?" Tang Boqi said to Lin Xiao qia, "I just wanted to see Song Tianyao's methods up close. I'm not one of his people."
Lin Xiao qia shook his head slightly. "A He was taken away to assist in the investigation? So what? Do you think the Lin Family will collapse because of one investigation?"
"I told you, I know nothing. Before Song Tianyao was taken to the Police Station, he asked me to meet you here and tell you what he knew. He said his aunt and daughter had the best impression of you and didn't want you to get too involved." Tang Boqi put his hands in his pockets and looked at the dark sea. "That guy, he actually arranged to meet at the pier again. Last time he arranged to meet Lin Xiaokang at the pier, and then..."
Lin Xiao qia pulled his trench coat tighter around himself. Hearing Tang Boqi mention Lin Xiaokang, he hesitated for a moment before saying, "A-Kang... was a bit too hasty. His family doesn't know he's already passed away. Since you've come to see me, tell me what Song Tianyao knows and what he's planning to do. You're an interesting young man. First you worked for the Lin Family, and now you're working for your rival. Aren't you annoyed seeing Song Tianyao all the time?"
Tang Boqi stood on the pier and relayed the words Song Tianyao had told him. Just then, a cargo ship skimmed past the pier from the distance, seemingly trying to cross Fish Tail Rock and dock at a smaller pier further in the distance. There were many such cargo ships smuggling goods at night in Hong Kong, so the two of them paid no attention to them.
Eventually, the ship circled in the distance before choosing to dock at this pier.
But before the ship could actually stop, lights suddenly blazed on the sea, and six or seven Marine Police boats and patrol boats rushed out. Fully armed Marine Police also rushed out from all around the small pier at Fish Tail Rock, and dozens of Customs surrounded the pier. Lin Xiao qia and Tang Boqi, who were talking on the pier, had obviously become the most obvious targets!
The Marine Police patrol boat turned on its searchlights and loudspeakers, ordering the cargo ship to stop for inspection. Tang Boqi and Lin Xiao qia, who were on the pier, were also surrounded by the Marine Police and asked to raise their hands for a body search.
Tang Boqi raised his hands, and when the Marine Police checked his person for weapons, he calmly said, "Sir, I have a United States passport. Is there no regulation in Hong Kong that forbids people from coming to the pier at night to enjoy the breeze and chat?"
"You want to frame me? Take me to the Police Station for questioning, just like A He?" Lin Xiao qia stared into Tang Boqi's eyes and asked with a gloomy expression.
The Marine Police quickly inspected the two men and, finding no weapons or contraband, temporarily placed them under custody. Meanwhile, the Marine Police, Customs, and others focused their attention on the cargo ship that had already stopped and was being inspected.
During the inspection, a sailor on board suddenly grabbed a bag and threw it into the sea.
The nearest Marine Police vessel immediately rushed over, and with the help of both crew and crew, they subdued the sailor while retrieving items that the ship had thrown into the sea.
