Zhou Quan had no objections to Phongsaphat's arrangements or to how Withaya was carrying them out.
He was very satisfied with the Thai side's caution toward this joint anti-drug operation.
"Colonel, we have reliable intelligence that a drug trafficker from Hong Kong Island, Chai Kwok-yung, is on his way to your country."
Meeting Police Colonel Withaya's eager gaze, Zhou Quan slowly began outlining his arrangements for the operation ahead.
"The purpose of his trip is to join forces with Bobby, a drug trafficker from your country, to conduct a transaction with Eight-Faced Buddha, Wei Xingguang."
"The first step of our joint operation will focus on placing Chai Kwok-yung and Bobby under surveillance."
"Our personnel will be led by Chow Sing Sing, Assistant Commissioner of the Hong Kong Island Police Force and Deputy Commissioner of the National Security Department."
At this point, Zhou Quan paused briefly and said no more.
Whether Chai Kwok-yung or Bobby, they were merely small fry.
Sir Kwan had no need to personally lead the operation against those two.
Besides, he had other important matters of his own to handle.
Although Sir Kwan had not spelled it out, Withaya immediately understood what he meant.
"Sir, I understand!"
Withaya glanced at the other Sergeant Zhou seated beside the senior figure from the Hong Kong Island Police Force and nodded emphatically.
"The Special Operations Team and I will give Sergeant Zhou our full cooperation."
The senior figure backing him had already given him explicit instructions, so he naturally knew how to handle things on the operational front.
This police colonel also had thoughts of finding a livelihood on Hong Kong Island.
Ultimately, Thailand's economic conditions really were not very good.
Even the capital, Bangkok, could not begin to compare with Hong Kong Island, one of the world's financial centers.
