Before he could finish speaking, a dazzling white light suddenly appeared on the sea, followed by a deafening roar that echoed from the surface!
The remote-controlled bomb planted on the thousand-ton cargo ship in the center of the sea finally took effect, with flames shooting into the sky and instantly engulfing the entire ship.
Amidst the churning waves, the fishing boat carrying Zhao Wenye and Huang Liu tossed and turned on the sea. The two clung tightly to the planks, barely managing to avoid being thrown into the ocean.
Amidst the deafening explosion, Huang Liu roared at Zhao Wenye with all his might, "I've done everything I was supposed to do! The rest is up to you, Zhao sir!"
Standing in the Sheng Zhaozhong view of Victoria Harbour, witnessing the Brazil cargo ship instantly turn to ashes, his previously smug smile vanished, replaced by a somber expression after the initial shock.
Tan Jingwei's first thought was that both he and Tan Jingwei had been deceived by Song Tianyao.
Then he wondered if Xu Pingsheng knew about this at all?
From beginning to end, it seemed that Xu Pingsheng had not participated in this shipping, but after the cargo ship was blown up and sunk to ashes, the face of this old man with a kind smile on his face suddenly appeared in Sheng Zhaozhong.
Neither Song Tianyao nor Xu Enbo would dare to sink a cargo ship flying the Brazil flag in Hong Kong waters, even if it were their own, because it would involve too many vested interests, and the two juniors simply could not afford to do so.
So everything seemed to become clear as the cargo ship sank. Sheng Zhaozhong instantly understood all the previously incomprehensible details, and cold sweat began to pour down his face.
They had to go back immediately to tell Tan Jingwei about this, and then take a boat back to Taiwan overnight; otherwise, they would never be able to go back.
Sheng Zhaozhong swallowed hard, unable to maintain his usual composure any longer, and hurriedly walked back.
Victoria Harbour was unusually quiet tonight. The Britain Foreign Devil who usually stood watch at night in front of the harbor had also disappeared without a trace. An alarm bell rang in Sheng Zhaozhong. The exit of Victoria Harbour was right in front of him, but now, in his eyes, that exit looked like a ferocious beast ready to devour its prey.
Sure enough, the next instant, a series of footsteps suddenly rang out all around, and a group of uniformed Marine Police suddenly appeared, surrounding Victoria Harbour.
"Stop! Don't move!" A Marine Police saw Sheng Zhaozhong and immediately drew his gun and pointed it at him.
Sheng Zhaozhong raised his hands, pursed his lips, and looked around. When he saw the two Britain Foreign Devil standing in front of the crowd, a look of relaxation suddenly appeared on his face.
As long as there are Foreign Devil around, even if these Marine Police are bribed by Song Tianyao, they won't dare to fire their guns indiscriminately.
Sheng Zhaozhong thought to himself, while loudly announcing his identity in English: "I am an official from Taiwan. I am here in Hong Kong to investigate a case involving smuggling to the mainland."
Upon hearing Tan Jingwei's words, the two Britain Foreign Devil in charge of mobilizing the Marine Police were taken aback. Their anger, which had been fueled by the bombing in their jurisdiction, vanished, replaced by suspicion.
"Walk over slowly, hands up!" a Britain Foreign Devil commanded Sheng Zhaozhong in English.
Sheng Zhaozhong did as he was told, raising his hands high and stepping on the newly paved stone pavement of Victoria Harbour, approaching the two Britain Foreign Devil step by step.
Has anyone from Taiwan come over recently?
"I heard that two Taiwan officials did indeed come, specifically to investigate the case of the missing engine."
"It's difficult to pin the bombing on him!"
The two Britain Foreign Devil whispered to each other, looking somewhat embarrassed as Sheng Zhaozhong approached.
Just then, a gunshot pierced the night sky.
Bang!
As the gun fired, Sheng Zhaozhong, suddenly shuddered.
He slowly lowered his head in disbelief. Right there in his chest, a bloody hole pierced through his heart, from which blood was gushing out.
Sheng Zhaozhong staggered back a few steps, his eyes still filled with confusion. The last thing he saw was the starry night sky over Victoria Harbour.
As Sheng Zhaozhong's body crashed to the ground, the two Britain Foreign Devil in front of the group of Marine Police were practically spitting fire with rage.
"Who gave you permission to fire without my orders?" the Britain Foreign Devil roared at the Marine Police who had fired the shot.
The Marine Police, still gripping his pistol in both hands, trembled slightly, seemingly terrified. "Sir, this is my first time holding a gun, my hand shook a little."
The two Foreign Devil were about to continue their outburst when Zhao Wenye rushed over from a distance. He glanced at Sheng Zhaozhong lying on the ground, a cold smile playing on his lips. He then quickly looked at the two Britain Foreign Devil: "Officers, what's got you so angry? Wow! You killed the ship-bombing culprit so quickly! You two officers are truly crime-fighting heroes!"
The two Britain Foreign Devil had originally planned to deal with Zhao Wenye, the head of the Marine Police, seemed to have suddenly had an idea upon hearing this, and nodded repeatedly. "Yes, this man colluded with pirates to hijack a Hong Kong cargo ship, and we have already killed him. You are all witnesses, do you know that?"
Under the cover of night, the group of Marine Police officers answered in booming voices, "Understood!"
Chapter 555 The Storm Begins (Part 4)
At the bar of Golden Source Club, Lam Kong put down his phone, still lost in thought for a long time.
He had been instructed by Song Tianyao to borrow Michael Sandberg from HSBC to wait at the Xu Family's gate. He had just borrowed the man when his underlings brought news that someone had called the Golden Source Club, specifically requesting that he come to listen in person.
The call came from Macau. Lou Fengyun was in Macau, and although she only said a few words on the phone, the shock she brought to Lam Kong was no less than that of the thousand-ton cargo ship that was sunk in Victoria Harbour.
"Take good care HSBC that HSBC executive named Michael Sandberg, I need to go out for a bit!" Coming back to his senses, Lam Kong rubbed his face vigorously, his eyes full of excitement.
The young man in Uniformed Branch behind him asked in surprise, "Brother Kong? Weren't we supposed to pick up Mr. Song at the Xu Family's gate?"
Lam Kong's voice trembled slightly. "Yes! Yes! And Mr. Song... Here's what we'll do, send a few more brothers over there to keep a close eye on Mr. Song, and remember to bring guns!"
