Hong Kong Island Old Events

When the police officers went upstairs and saw the thigh hanging on the door, the blood and flesh on the floor, and the broken meat stuck to the ceiling, they all felt a sense of fear for the officer. However, Chen Li didn't want to waste any time and immediately asked his subordinates to search the room.

Doors opened one after another, and in addition to famous wines, luxury cars, and brand-name watches, several safes were also found, which contained not only bank deposit receipts, but also large amounts of cash, stock certificates, property deeds, and gold jewelry.

"Sir Barton has really made a lot of money."

Chen Li held a cigarette in his mouth and took a breath. When he saw the Hong Kong dollars piled up like a hill, his heart did not waver at all. A senior police officer has worked for more than ten years and has tens of millions of dollars worth of property. However, after reviewing the found stock securities, he still took a breath of air: "The stock securities alone are worth more than 30 million Hong Kong dollars."

"A ghost guy with white skin is really better at making money!"

These assets are still sealed at home. It is well-documented. According to high-level practice, overseas assets are at least ten times more than those at home.

Except for Sir Ho, none of the Chinese police officers in Hong Kong have a net worth of more than 100 million!

There is always a question mark whether there is a sir or not.

After all, even for Sir He, the main source of assets comes from Zhengxing. The value of assets fluctuates greatly with the market. The guessable fee portion is at most 30 to 40 million.

"This evidence is enough to crucify him. After the confiscation, it will also enrich the pockets of the brothers and build a few empty buildings for the citizens." Chen Li smiled happily as he watched the brothers confiscate the stolen money and pack it away. Hua: "You did something good in the end."

That night.

Barton's single-family villa in Repulse Bay was sealed, and the family's famous wines, luxury cars, and luxury goods were all taken away by the police.

The second day.

morning.

Chen Li came to the police office with the report, stood at attention, saluted, and reported aloud: "Director, last night Sir Barton resisted arrest with a gun, resulting in the death of an Anti-Corruption Office officer, and two Anti-Corruption Office officers were shot and injured. .”

"Patton himself was shot dead on the spot."

"The anti-corruption office found 2 million Hong Kong dollars in cash at the residence, as well as various stock certificates and bank deposit receipts worth more than 37 million Hong Kong dollars. One of the deposit receipts happened to be related to the bribery accounted for by the former Star Ferry chairman. The case is consistent.”

Kunxian was wearing his uniform and sitting on the sofa, with a heavy face and clasped hands, listening to the reports of his subordinates.

He Dingxian, Ge Bai and Si Kaiming accompanied him.

When Scheming heard the news that Patton was shot dead on the spot, his expression was obviously a bit wrong. He probably didn't expect that the pro-China faction would be so ruthless in dealing with his own people. Ge Bai sighed and said with great regret: "Sir Barton has served the police force for many years and has achieved outstanding results. All he needs to do is cooperate with the investigation. How did he get to this point?"

Kunxian was actually surprised by Barton's death. After all, he only planned to prosecute Barton for a three- to five-year sentence, and then reduce the sentence and serve two or three years in prison before he could be released from prison. Once some heads are opened, they are actually very dangerous to themselves.

But Patton resisted with a gun. The evidence is conclusive and has nothing to do with anyone.

At this time, he must make a clear statement: "Failure to abide by police regulations, accepting benefits without authorization, and having huge amounts of property from unknown sources is a crime in itself! A senior police officer who has been committing crimes will have more negative consequences for the police the longer he serves the police. The greater the harm caused!”

"Only crime."

"No results!"

He set the tone and looked up at Chen Li: "Sir Chen, the anti-corruption office has done a great job. I will give a special reward to the meritorious police officers this time."

"This investigation is the highest-level anti-corruption incident involving the largest amount since the establishment of the Hong Kong Police Force. We must not stop at Barton. We must investigate step by step, get to the bottom of it, and give an explanation to the public."

“Tell the citizens of the police force’s determination to eradicate corruption!”

When Chen Li heard that he was looking down instead of up, he knew the direction in his heart. He immediately saluted and shouted: "Yes, sir!"

"Thanks for your hard work."

"Pay attention to rest." Kunxian said softly with concern, and Chen Li turned around and walked away in a goose step. As a chief inspector, he was not qualified to listen to high-level discussions in private.

After the master left, He Dingxian sighed and said: "No wonder, the police force had a bad reputation in the past ten years and was called a bad cop. It turns out that there are bugs in the senior management."

When Ge Bai, Kunxian, and Shi Keming heard this sentence, they felt different in their hearts. According to their understanding, the anti-corruption office took advantage of the property last night. Although he did not dare to touch the stock securities, he took away several luxury cars, which was obviously an internal profit.

But no one would ruin the atmosphere of the scene. Everyone pretended to be serious and nodded in approval.

Anyway, let’s not talk about whether the anti-corruption campaign is effective or not. At least people have been arrested and sentenced. The citizens are happy to hear about it and feel that the police force is working!

Mr. Kun said: "Sir He, I plan to award Sir Chen the Gold Medal of Valor and promote him to the rank of Anti-Corruption Superintendent. What do you think?"

"Thank you, sir! I think it's very good." He Dingxian thanked him directly and spoke out for his master: "Sir Chen has been working in the Anti-Corruption Bureau for five years and has handled many important cases. Now he is in charge of Sir Barton's case. Case, heroic performance.”

“Encouragement should be given.”

Kun Xian nodded and said: "The police force is really short of detectives who dare to fight corruption. It needs to be promoted in the future. Otherwise, if the police force's morale is not right, how can we maintain social order? Now that Patton has died in fear of crime, the position of Deputy Director of Operations is vacant. According to the system, the acting deputy director is the first successor."

"I intend to submit an application to the Security Bureau to appoint Sir Ge as the Deputy Director of Operations. What do you think of Sir Ge?" He looked at Ge Bai, who was sitting beside him. Ge Bai's eyes became obviously excited, and he nodded without concealment: "Thank you for your trust, sir. My subordinates will definitely perform their duties conscientiously."

"Haha, Sir Ge handled the Wan Chai Pier incident very beautifully. I believe you have the ability to manage the Operations Department well. As for Sir Ge's previous position, his deputy, Assistant Director of Kowloon District, Sir Wang, will take over."

"Sir Wang's position will be transferred to Sir Ban, Assistant Director of Kowloon District, to take over."

Wang Sir was Ge Bai's partner before, so he is naturally closer to Ge Bai politically. Promoting Wang Sir is to give Ge Bai's family room for improvement, win Ge Bai's political support, and form a de facto political alliance.

Sir Ban was Kun Xian’s former subordinate and was the Assistant Director of Hong Kong Island District.

It felt a little aggrieved to ask the class sir to fill the position. It was obviously a deliberate move to make room for someone else.

Positions above director level on Hong Kong Island are like carrots and pitfalls. How many chief superintendents are watching? The Commissioner of Police deliberately wants to free up a good vacancy for his own people. Who is he preparing for? The three police officers present knew what was going on.

"What do you think?"

Kunxian asked with a smile.

"It's very safe, I think there's no problem." Skemin was the first to express his position.

Everyone treats him as nothing.

Ge Bai nodded and said: "I have considered it very carefully. It is just the position of Assistant Director of Hong Kong Island District."

"hehe."

"I will also make a report and recommend this candidate to the Security Bureau. As for who it is, you will know it when the documents are approved." Kun Xian sold a relationship, stood up and said: "I will go to Taiping Mountain to see the Governor later. trip."

Ge Bai, Shi Kaiming, and He Dingxian stood up, stood at attention, saluted, and turned to leave the director's office.

evening.

Kunming drove to Victoria Peak and was received by the Governor. He handed a report with both hands and said loudly: "In the investigation of the Star Ferry bribery case, the Anti-Corruption Office of the Police obtained the confessions of tainted witnesses and learned of the previous actions." Deputy Commissioner Barton is involved in corruption.”

"During the investigation, Patton's personal illegal assets of 13 million Hong Kong dollars were seized, and all assets have been sealed."

Governor Bai Liji flipped through the report, his eyes were very playful, and he asked: "Star Ferry?"

"Is it the ferry company that caused the riots at Wan Chai Pier due to price increases?"

Kun nodded first: "Yes!"

"It seems that the reason that intensified the riots was that Sir Barton was paid to do things for others?" Bai Liji looked deeply at Kun Xian. He never interfered in the internal struggles of the police force, so he quickly withdrew his gaze, closed the document, and said: "The stolen goods will be confiscated and handed over to the Treasury Bureau."

"Yes, sir!"

Kunxian held his head high and took orders loudly and righteously.

The next day.

The police force announced the news that the former deputy director had taken bribes and resisted with weapons and was shot dead on the spot. It also announced the total amount of seized assets. For the first time, the citizens saw the resignation of a high-level director-level ghost. The public response was extremely enthusiastic. The citizens set off firecrackers to celebrate and applauded.

Many people are even speechless about the total amount of stolen money of 13 million yuan. It is impossible to imagine that in an era when the per capita salary is two to three hundred yuan, a senior police officer can actually accept more than 10 million yuan in stolen money. What is this number? Ordinary citizens have never made so much money since they worked as coolies in the Han Dynasty. In an era of rising productivity, the more people there are, the more wealth there is, but the richer the rich are, the more poor people are. Whether life is good or not, productivity is actually a secondary relationship, and the distribution method is the main issue.

However, the association fees have to be paid, and the shops have to pay the taxes. The young and Dangerous boys who are wandering around in the world are not as happy as the citizens. Because citizens can expect that the new police commissioner will be honest and committed. But they can feel personally that this session is actually no different from the previous one!

Kunxian relied on this action to create a political image of clean government and courage.

Subsequently, three more chief superintendents and six superintendents were investigated. Barton's confidants were wiped out, and the remaining people expressed their loyalty to Kunxian, which allowed Kunxian to enjoy a taste of power. The position of chairman of the Patton Police Foundation was naturally removed. With the full support of the police force, Kunxian was elected as the new chairman of the Police Foundation with a full vote.

Three days later.

Victoria Peak.

Governor's Palace.

When Bai Liji received the job recommendation submitted by the Security Bureau, he suddenly realized: "It turns out that the more than 10 million stolen money was used to buy an official position! Stop my mouth and change positions!"

In fact, he is already quite dissatisfied with the money empire built within the police force, because the police force is not only greedy for money, but also colludes with social groups to breed a large number of illegal industries, attract funds, and then monopolize a number of industries, dragging down the economic growth. speed.

The most critical thing is that young laborers are locked in societies and cannot be driven into factories. Many British-owned factories are experiencing labor shortages. This is not because the population of Hong Kong Island is insufficient, nor is the economic growth rate low, but that part of the economic vitality has been blocked and has become the cornerstone and nourishment of the money empire, eroding his interests and political achievements.

Of course, the peaceful development time that Bai Liji gained by bowing his head and compromising was essentially a blend of interests with the money empire. It was impossible for him to break up with the money empire, so he simply signed a few letters of appointment.

Ge Bai was appointed as Deputy Director of Operations, Wang Zhe was appointed as Senior Assistant Director of Kowloon District, and He Dingxian was appointed as Assistant Director of Hong Kong Island District.
