Volume 4: Chasing the Dragon Chapter 0073 Good Brothers Talk About Loyalty
Just at this moment, the sound of a speedboat's motor came from the side, and the lights suddenly lit up, illuminating the people immersed in the sea.
"Who is May?"
The woman who had just been pushed into the sea by Changji and drank a mouthful of water shook her arms and shouted "Help" very reluctantly.
Lin Yue said to the two people standing behind him: "Why are you standing there? Why don't you save them?"
Yaoji and Axin didn't even have time to take off their clothes before diving into the water. One of them held the child while the other supported the adult, and they lifted the mother and child onto the speedboat.
On the other side, Lin Yue took Chen Bin and Bucktooth Huang onto the fishing boat.
The British inspector frowned as he looked at the three men in police uniforms. You know, this is the territory of the water police, and those three men had crossed the line.
"Sir, can I have a moment with you?"
Lin Yue gave the British inspector a look, walked to the backlit area of the bow, took out 3,000 yuan from his pocket and handed it over.
"Today is the Chinese Reunion Festival. Please spare these people."
The British inspector twirled the banknotes in his hand and said nothing.
In Hong Kong, the land police have always had more benefits than the water police. Not to mention the grassroots police officers are dissatisfied with this, even inspector-level police officers like him have a lot of resentment. Now a small uniformed police officer can get 3,000 yuan, which is equivalent to his monthly income.
"Sir, I don't think you want to make a big deal out of this, right? Those newspaper reporters are like cockroaches, they will always come here smelling the stench. If a stowaway drowns due to a water police inspection, I don't know how they will slander you, don't you think so?"
Lin Yue nodded towards the speedboat. Behind the co-pilot stood a bespectacled man with a camera around his neck. He looked at the two people looking over and waved with a smile.
The British inspector thought for a moment, shouted to the two water police standing next to the mast, took them back to the water police boat, and instructed the helmsman to go around the fishing boat and head forward.
After watching the police boat leave, Lin Yue turned back to look at the captain and the snakehead and said coldly, "Hit me."
Chen Bin and Bucktooth Huang pulled out the batons hanging from their belts, rushed over to beat up the captain and the snakehead, and beat them up so badly that the two men were lying on the ground with their teeth bared and begging for mercy.
Lin Yue was even more ruthless. After a few punches, the crewman holding the long oar at the stern was breathing out more than breathing in. Even if he could recover, he would have to stay in the hospital for at least a month or two.
He himself had no good feelings towards these human smugglers, let alone those who were too strong.
Who would choose to smuggle to a foreign country to make a living if they can live comfortably in their own country? It can be said that only the poor would choose to smuggle. They have already paid before departure, or signed an agreement to sell themselves to pay off debts. However, during the transportation process, the snakeheads not only habitually bully the smugglers, but even rape those women with a little bit of beauty. They will also threaten and intimidate them after arriving at the destination, and carry out secondary exploitation, either deducting the wages of the smugglers or selling them to chicken and duck stalls. They are even more hateful than those gangsters who run gambling houses and cigarette stalls.
Lin Yue picked up the people in the water one by one and walked to the front deck. He pulled off the gold necklace on the captain's chest and threw it to Bucktooth Huang who was standing behind him.
"Tell Gongzi Qiang's people that Master Lin will collect some interest today, and we will settle the accounts later when we have time."
After saying that, he took the two of them back to his boat, took out two sets of clean clothes from under the seat and handed them to Ah Mei.
"Auntie, I'm Wu Shihao's friend. I'm here to pick you up for a reunion. Change your wet clothes first. It's a little chilly at night. Don't catch a cold."
Hearing that he was Wu Shihao's friend, A Mei breathed a sigh of relief and took the clothes to change the child first.
"May I have your name?"
"Lin Yue."
"Thank you, Officer Lin."
"Auntie, you don't have to be so polite."
“…”
While A-Mei was changing clothes, Lin Yue walked to the stern of the boat, sat down, lit a cigarette and put it in his mouth .
Bucktooth Huang looked very happy holding the gold necklace.
"Bucktooth Huang, Brother Chen, Axin... Thank you."
Chen Bin said, "Why are you thanking me? We are brothers. Why do you need to thank me for such a small thing?"
"I'm talking about how you were beaten up by the doll because of me."
He had sex with Wan Yan Tong's woman, and then turned around and boarded Lei Luo's boat. The old man couldn't find a chance to retaliate, so he instigated Gongzi Qiang to beat up Chen Bin and others to vent his anger. After the five people knew the whole story, they not only did not blame him but were willing to continue the relationship with him. It was really touching.
The wind was strong on the sea. Bucktooth Huang took the cigarette from his mouth, put the burning end towards the cigarette between his fingers, took a few deep puffs from behind, watched the cigarette butt spread out in a circle of bright yellow, and returned the cigarette to Lin Yue with his gauze-wrapped hand.
"When I was a kid, my father, a gambler, often said, 'Life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor are determined by God.' Later, he lost all his money in gambling and not only did he mortgage our house, he also disappeared. Now I can't remember what he looked like, but I can't forget this sentence."
Life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor are determined by God.
The same sentence was said by跛豪 in the movie.
Ah Xin, who was driving the boat in front, turned around and shouted, "In fact, the beating was not in vain, otherwise we would still be helping the uncles and grandmothers drive the ox carts at the Sha Tau Kok Police Station."
After this incident, Lei Luo used his connections to transfer them to Yau Ma Tei as patrolmen. The monthly fee was enough for them to work for a year at Sha Tau Kok Police Station. The few of them privately felt lucky. If it weren't for Lin Yue, they would have no chance to climb up to the high position of Inspector Lei.
"It's a pity that he's a fence-sitter...what a coward." Yaoji got angry when he talked about him. After that, he actually took the 10,000 yuan given by Lin Yue to sell bacon and even stopped being a policeman.
"There's nothing we can do. He has elderly parents and young children to take care of, and two younger brothers who need to go to school. He's not like us." Chen Bin said as he looked at the white waves spreading at the stern.
…
"Lin Yue, if you hadn't arrived in time this time, I'm afraid I would never see Ah Mei and Xiao Hui again." After Wu Shihao comforted his wife and children, he walked to Lin Yue and knelt down with a plop: "Please accept this great kindness, Wu Shihao."
With that he kowtowed.
Lin Yue hurried over to help him: "Brother Hao, what are you doing? Good brothers should be loyal to each other. It is my duty to save my sister-in-law."
Bah! Lin Yue, Lin Yue, you are just thinking about Sister Qing'er. First, you are worried that Wu Shihao will compete with you for a woman, and second, you have sympathy, so you save your sister-in-law.
Lin Yue argued with himself in his heart: "What's wrong with me doing this? Bite me if you dare."
Wu Shihao stood up and said, "Lin Yue, from now on your business is my business. If you need any help, just tell me. I will go through fire and water for you."
Dawei and Xiaowei also said from behind: "Yes, Brother Yue, you can tell me if there is anything in the future."
Yaqi couldn't speak, he just patted his chest loudly.
"Okay." Lin Yue didn't bother to be polite . He patted Wu Shihao on the shoulder and pulled him aside. He took out 1,000 yuan from his pocket and said, "Brother Hao, my aunt died of a sudden heart attack last month. I'm the only one at home. It's not convenient for Ah Hua to live there. Now that my sister-in-law is here, I hope you can help me take care of her if it's convenient."
Wu Shihao pushed Lin Yue's hand back: "Lin Yue, even if you don't tell me, I will take good care of Ah Hua. You don't have to worry about the money. I can afford it."
"In that case, I won't be polite with you." Lin Yue put the money away and gave each person a cigarette.
Dawei said, "Brother Yue, how did you know that my sister-in-law would be checked by the marine police?"
"Do you think the British are stupid?" Lin Yue pointed at them and said, "Those foreigners are smart. They also know that it is easy to catch big fish during festivals, so they lie in wait on the waterway, waiting for those illegal immigrants and smuggling ships to run into their guns. When I was talking to Zhu Youzai before, I heard that Auntie would arrive today, so I thought of picking her up at sea. It would be best if nothing goes wrong. If Auntie is stopped by the water police, Luo Ge and I are here. As long as she is not sent to Tai Kwun, it will be easy to deal with."
Wu Shihao said: "You are still careful."
"I heard that you are working under Fatty Chao now?"
"yes."
"Be careful, that guy is very shady."
"I know."
Lin Yue glanced at Ah Mei, who was standing in the wind with a blanket wrapped around her. "It's cold at the dock, and the children's fever hasn't subsided yet. Let's take them home quickly."
"Okay." Wu Shihao nodded and asked Dawei, Xiaowei and others to leave.
