Even the strongest fortress was often easier to breach from within.
Law Ting-fat and Lian Ho-lung's wife had betrayed their own side, immediately giving Zhou Quan an opening to strike at Chung Shing Yee.
Using Law Ting-fat's testimony, Zhou Quan pulled one thread that unraveled everything, collecting all the evidence of Chung Shing Yee's crimes.
Zhou Quan had enough evidence to prosecute not only Lian Ho-lung and the others, but even the Big Money Man behind him, Fourth Uncle Tong Lai-yu.
Lian Ho-lung and Lian Ho-tung were certainly devoted to that so-called Fourth Uncle, but that could not stop Su Su from confessing.

All of Chung Shing Yee's finances had been under Su Su's management.
Su Su had records of every withdrawal of criminal proceeds Tong Lai-yu had made from Chung Shing Yee's accounts.
Taken together, the cases against Lian Ho-lung and Tong Lai-yu involved close to a billion Hong Kong dollars.
It was the largest sum involved in any case since Hong Kong Island had opened as a trading port.
The entire fortune of that Chief Inspector once wanted by the Hong Kong Government had amounted to only half the sum involved in this major case.
Lian Ho-lung's arrest and Chung Shing Yee's collapse were only the beginning.

Of course, that had little to do with Zhou Quan.
His responsibilities lay in anti-triad work; investigating Tong Lai-yu was the responsibility of the Commercial Crime
