Chapter 2: Useless Big B, Can't Even Fight, Just Stirs Up Trouble
"You little rat, do you really think I'm a psychopath? Go see a psychiatrist, you're crazy!"
Chen Fan threw away the business card for the psychological counseling room that Huang Bingyao had given him and drove his used BMW E30 back to Kwun Tong.
During his year-long undercover mission, he spent most of his time in the small town of Kwun Tong.
More than half a month ago, he submitted a pledge of allegiance to Da Yu in advance, successfully advancing from a member of the Blue Lantern to a member of Hung Hing's Fourth Brother. His name was written into the Hung Hing roster, which meant he was now in the deep sea. He didn't receive any great merit or territory, but he did have a few underlings.
Although Chen Fan didn't own any territory, after becoming a member of the 49, Da Yu assigned him a job as a bar attendant and parking attendant.
Yes, it's a trial period.
If nothing happens at the bar within a month, the place will officially be under his control.
To put it bluntly, it's about whether you can handle things and resolve them.
If it can be resolved, then it's not a problem.
If you can't handle it, a small problem can escalate into a big one.
Whether you can achieve great things in this world depends entirely on these two points.
Half an hour later, Chen Fan returned to the bar on Andy Road in Kwun Tong.
"Brother Fan."
Upon seeing Chen Fan return, a young man quickly approached him.
Seeing the other person's anxious expression, Chen Fan raised an eyebrow: "What business is it of yours to guard the gate of an airplane?"
Feiji is a ruthless character in the movie "Election" who eats spoons. He is loyal, stubborn, aloof, and extreme. He is decisive and efficient in his actions and is also quite skilled. After Chen Fan took him in as a follower, he had fewer opportunities to fight.
"Brother Fan, Lao Ding is here and says he wants to see you."
"How long has he been here?"
The plane glanced down at its watch. "It's been almost half an hour."
"Did they say what it was about?"
"I don't know, but Da Tou Cheng, She Zai Chao, and the others came with Lao Ding too."
Big Head Cheng and Snake Boy Chao are the two big shots of the Dayu Hall. The former is a red stick, and the latter is a straw sandal that is tied to him at the same time.
These two are Da Yu's right-hand men; it's quite rare to see all three of them come together.
Upon entering the bar, Chen Fan saw Da Yu sitting at the bar counter with his back to the door.
"Boss."
Chen Fan called out in a nonchalant tone.
Snake Boy, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, glanced sideways at Chen Fan and said, "Chen Fan, you're something else, making the big boss wait for half an hour."
"Brother Chao, I received news that the big boss is coming to inspect, so I rushed back from Wan Chai as fast as I could. I ran five red lights and almost crashed my car."
Chen Fan gave a very serious explanation.
"Keep making things up," Da Tou Cheng chuckled and continued, "Your people are all right under our noses; no one notified you at all."
"Have I been scammed over the phone?"
Chen Fan continued to play dumb.
At this moment, Da Yu turned around, pointed to the empty seat next to him, and smiled, "A Fan, come and sit down."
Seeing the other person's smile, Chen Fan immediately sensed something was wrong and asked bluntly, "Boss, what are your orders this time?"
"You're quite direct, so I'll be frank. The gang needs people to do things these days, and you're the most capable newcomer in our branch, so I recommended you to Mr. Jiang."
"Boss, is it appropriate for me to participate in a high-level operation so soon after entering the ocean?"
"Of course it's suitable. If you do things well, you can come back and become the eldest brother."
"Isn't this a bit inappropriate? Brother Cheng and Brother Chao are still here, how can I take their place?"
Chen Fan immediately became alert.
The things that could get Si Jiu to settle down were definitely not trivial matters. They were either leading a team to kill people, the kind of killing to the death, or serving time in a labor camp for the boss.
The former is alright; if you act cleanly and decisively, you'll generally be fine. The latter is a complete trap; the last one, a big-headed guy who served time in a prison for his boss, was sentenced to nine years.
Chen Fan didn't want to be that kind of unlucky guy.
"Those two have long lost their youthful vigor. Afan, you are different from them. Our gang rarely has young people who enter the underwater world early. Even they only became full members of the underwater world after two or three years of affiliation as Blue Lanterns."
"Here's what happened. Not long ago, Uncle Bo was beaten up by Hung Tai's men in Yau Tsim Mong. Big B went to negotiate with Hung Tai but failed to reach an agreement. This score is not settled, and it's a slap in the face to our Hung Hing."
"Hey, Afan, as long as you take down one of Hongtai's top lieutenants in the fight, I guarantee you'll be the boss when you come back."
After hearing Da Yu's explanation, Chen Fan frowned and said, "Boss, how dare a second-rate triad like Hung Tai target our Hung Hing elders? Don't you think that's suspicious?"
"Hey, Afan, are you too scared to do something? The boss asked you to do a little thing, and you're making excuses." Snake Boy said sarcastically in a cold voice.
"Ah Chao, what are you saying? It's perfectly normal for Ah Fan to have doubts if he wants to do things clearly."
"Oh, boss, I know I was wrong."
"If you know you're wrong, apologize to Afan. What's the use of apologizing to me?"
"Afan, it was my fault. I got a little angry when Uncle Bo was beaten. I'm really sorry."
Chen Fan watched the charade quietly. He wasn't stupid; these guys were clearly trying to send him to his death. This mission was probably a trap, but it was also a good opportunity to rise in rank.
"Hey bro, if you take down one of Hongtai's top players, does that really make you a boss?"
"Of course, this was a promise made by Mr. Chiang himself at the triad meeting."
"Since it's Mr. Jiang's idea, then I'll go all out. How dare the mere Hongtai challenge our Hongxing? They're courting death." Chen Fan feigned an indignant expression.
"good!"
"Afan, I knew I hadn't misjudged you."
The three of them, Da Yu, all wore meaningful smiles.
"Acheng, you send fifty brothers over to be under Afan's command; Achao, you prepare their equipment."
"We'll make the arrangements right away."
Big Head Cheng and Snake Boy Chao picked up their cell phones to contact their subordinates.
Da Yu continued, "A Fan, there will be other members of our gang and others taking action in the next couple of days. Remember to have them wear white gloves, so that we don't end up making a mess of things and not recognizing each other."
Also, I heard there's a big shot from Hongtai at the Sands nightclub tomorrow night. You absolutely have to bring some good luck to our branch; whether we can restore our reputation depends entirely on you.
"Is there really an event involving a big shot from Hongtai?"
Chen Fan looked at Da Yu with a forced smile.
There's probably a trap here. How could such a good thing as accurate intelligence fall into the hands of a "newcomer" who has just entered the seabed?
Saying that Big Head Cheng and Snake Boy are too old is nonsense. These two guys are only twenty-seven or twenty-eight. Calling them old and lacking ambition before they're even thirty is less convincing than saying they have kidney deficiency and weak legs and can't lift a knife.
"This is intelligence I bought for five thousand dollars. This is the target's photo. If you take him out, you'll be the boss when you come back."
Da Yu pulled out a photo and handed it to Chen Fan.
"I have other matters to attend to at the branch, Afan. You should prepare well, and we won't bother you any longer."
After saying that, Da Yu called two of his men and left the bar.
Chen Fan held the photo and examined it for a moment.
Good heavens, the hole that Daewoo dug for him is no ordinary one.
The person in the photo is none other than Chen Tailong, the heir apparent of Hongtai.
This bastard is the only son of Hongtai's leader, the head of the gang. If we cut him down, we'll probably face retaliation from the entire Hongtai.
It's important to know that Hung Tai, like Sun Kee, is a family-run business.
To target someone's successor right off the bat is only a sure way to wipe them out.
But it is clear that Hung Hing has no intention of eliminating Hung Tai, otherwise, why would a newcomer like him, Si Jiu, have to take action in such a matter?
"Brother Fan, we're making our move tomorrow night, right?"
The plane was eager to take off.
"What the hell are you going to do? This bastard is Hong Tai's only son. You think you can just go and take him down like that? Are you planning to fuck him in Taiwan or Southeast Asia?"
"Who is 'Butt Eyebrow'?"
Chen Fan covered his face and sighed, "Chen Mei, the leader of Hongtai."
"Damn it, Lao Ding told us to chop him up, isn't that sending us to our deaths?"
"If we don't die, what excuse do we have to start a war? There's definitely more to the story about Uncle Bo being beaten. Maybe that old devil Uncle Bo started it all along."
It's common for senior members of the underworld to act arrogantly based on their age. If such a person gets beaten up, they'll only complain about how others treated them and how they were disrespected by their gang. They would never tell the gang the whole story.
The fact that even Big B, the big boss of Causeway Bay, couldn't reach an agreement is the best proof of this.
This is just one guess. Another possibility is that Hung Hing had its eye on a certain territory of Hung Tai. Uncle Bo's attempt to stir up trouble failed, so they needed to find a hothead to provoke conflict.
Regardless of which guess it is, they are all destined to be used as cannon fodder.
"Should we still go and kill him?"
The plane was a little slow to react.
"We definitely have to go, but we can't go without knowing why. Contact Ahua and have him find out the truth about this from the outsiders."
Ahua is one of Chen Fan's few trusted subordinates. He is not as skilled as Feiji, but he knows how to use his brain and is quite efficient.
Besides Ahua, Chen Fan also has another talent comparable to the ancient Han envoys—Wu Ying.
That's right, these two are the two main characters in the movie "As Tears Go By".
These two had only been out in the game for a short time when they were recruited by Chen Fan.
And the outsider is the well-informed informant in the best partners.
Chen Fan only discovered He Dongshi's existence when he accidentally saw the tomboy He Dongshi beating up the guy to get information in a shopping mall. The way to get in touch with this guy was simple: a fist plus a small amount of money was enough.
