The origin of the arms-smuggling case codenamed Codename L was simple and clear: it referred to the international arms broker Doctor Luo.
After all, the case had originated with Customs, and Customs Big Sir Chan Wing-kan had also humbled himself and paid a personal visit.
Therefore, Kong Chi Lap had no intention of excluding Customs from the operations that followed.
Uniting every friend who could be united was a way of doing things passed down from his boss, Sir Kwan.
Kwok Tsz-keung, whom Chan Kwan-uk had personally selected, was now Customs' fully authorized representative.
Before he came to Police Force headquarters at Tai Kwun for the meeting, Chan Kwan-uk had specifically given him a thorough briefing.
The Police Force's National Security Department had given Customs a chance to recover its damaged reputation, so Customs naturally needed to know its place.
In all subsequent operations concerning the L arms-smuggling case, Customs would focus on supporting the Police Force's National Security Department.
Kwok Tsz-keung was deeply invested in advancing his career and well versed in cultivating connections.
Of course, his own ability was beyond question.
Otherwise, Chan Wing-kan would never have selected him as Customs' representative, much less regarded him as a trusted confidant.
Through his connection to Chan Wing-kan, Kwok Tsz-keung could even be considered one of Lok Ming-wah's trusted men.
If he truly could not handle important responsibilities and knew only how to scheme for petty gains, Lok Ming-wah would probably have shown him the door long ago.
Deputy Secretary Lok had great ambitions. He would never tolerate problems among his own inner-circle subordinates.
In a certain sense, Kwok Tsz-keung could actually represent Lok Ming-wah as well.
Besides being capable, he had always been skilled at navigating social relationships. How could he fail to understand what attitude he should take
