Hong Kong News: Police Talker

Chapter 860 Documents previously released by Fan Weili

Not long after Watson returned to the office, Chen Yongren walked in.

"Hua Sir, Li Chaoren's detention time is about to end. Should we sue him?"

Watson didn't answer. Instead, he asked, "How's it going? Have you figured it out? Did Superman Li know that the stuff DOE International Logistics shipped to Hong Kong Island was garbage containing radioactive materials?"

Chen Yongren paused and said, "Based on the information we found and Li Chaoren's transcript, he didn't know."

Watson sneered, "Whether he didn't know or just accepted it, it's hard to say. Kwai Chung Pier belongs to him. If he doesn't know anything about it, then he doesn't deserve to be the richest man in Hong Kong Island."

"There's no evidence now, so let him go for now. Once we find evidence later, it won't be too late to arrest him. He can escape, but he can't."

"Yes, Mr. Hua!" Chen Yongren nodded and walked out.

Although the fire was put out, there are still many follow-up issues that need to be dealt with.

Especially the cause of the fire, which caused heavy losses to Hong Kong Island and countless deaths and injuries. Someone must be held accountable for this.

DOE International Logistics Company is obviously such an existence.

If no one is found responsible, countless people will be implicated in this incident, and even if DOE International Logistics Company takes responsibility, many people will still be implicated.

After a while, Huang Bingyao's assistant suddenly called and asked Watson to go to the director's office.

When Watson came into the office, he was slightly startled because Fan Weili, the director of the Finance Department, was also there.

When Huang Bingyao saw Watson come in, he immediately said, "Close the door and come sit down!"

Watson walked over with some confusion. After sitting down, he immediately heard Huang Bingyao say, "Watson, when the fire broke out at Kwai Chung Pier this time, your handling was very good. It can be said that you successfully saved the entire Hong Kong Island."

"If you hadn't found the cesium-137 in time, and if it had spread in the fire, Hong Kong Island would have been completely destroyed."

Watson grinned: "Hong Kong Island is my home now. If someone is destroying my home, of course I have to stop him."

Upon hearing this, Fan Weili gave a thumbs-up and said, "Well said. I came here mainly to thank you in person. If it weren't for your timely handling, my political career might have been over."

At this point, he suddenly sighed and said, "You know, in order to stimulate Hong Kong's economy, I specially issued a document to simplify customs procedures. This allowed many things to enter Hong Kong and accelerated the progress of trade."

"But this document, which simplified customs procedures, also laid the groundwork for this incident."

"If you hadn't stopped the mine from detonating, Watson, I'd probably be held responsible for the spread of the radiation source by now. Not only would I lose my job, I might even end up in jail."

After saying that, Fan Weili stood up with a look of gratitude on his face and bowed deeply to Watson.

Watson quickly stood up, supported Fan Weili, and said, "Hey, Director Fan, there's no need to be like this. You signed the document to simplify customs procedures for the good of Hong Kong Island. Although it planted a landmine, it has now been defused."

"But we still have to strengthen customs procedures afterwards. I don't want to defuse the second mine, and I'm not confident that the second mine won't explode."

Fan Weili nodded heavily and said, "Of course I understand. I was revising the document on simplifying customs procedures this morning and have now sent it to the Governor for signature. The new document should be implemented tomorrow."

Hearing this, Watson couldn't help but be a little surprised. Is this efficiency so high? But when he thought about it, this was a document personally led by the director of the Finance Department, one of the three departments. Who would dare to delay it!

Fan Weili said with a look of relief: "Watson, thank you so much this time. If it weren't for you, I don't know what I would do."

Then he said solemnly, "Your contribution this time is very great. You are now a senior superintendent. This achievement is enough for you to be promoted to the next level, to chief superintendent. I wonder what your plans are. If you have any, just tell me directly."

"I will do my best to help you make this happen. You don't have to worry about your qualifications. The world isn't static. If I don't let you get promoted this time, there will be no fairness in the police force."

Hearing this, Watson's heart moved. If he had any ideas, he must have them. He glanced at Huang Bingyao and saw that he nodded slightly. He immediately said, "Director Fan, I started out in O-Ji, so I want to go to O-Ji and serve as the commander-in-chief."

Fan Weili was about to agree, but Huang Bingyao held him back and said helplessly, "It's no problem for you to be promoted to Chief Superintendent, but if you want to be transferred to the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau as Chief Commander, that's not easy. There are too many people eyeing this position."

"Hong Kong Island has many chief superintendents, but most of them do not have much power. However, the position of Chief Superintendent of Triads and Triads allows him to mobilize officers from the entire Hong Kong Island Police Force and is responsible for all triad cases in Hong Kong Island."

"It's not that I won't help you, it's just that it's really difficult. Even if Director Fan and I work together, we can't guarantee it will be a 100% success."

Watson pondered for a moment and said, "Well, I understand. Let's put it this way. The Dizang incident has been quite a big deal lately. If I can get rid of Dizang, then with the merits of the Dizang and Kwai Chung Pier fire cases, I should be able to become the chief commander of the Organized Crime and Triad Organization, right?"

Huang Bingyao did not answer immediately, but pondered for a moment, then said solemnly: "If you can also deal with Dizang, then the combined merits of these two will definitely be enough."

"Dizang is the biggest drug dealer in Hong Kong right now. It's not easy to take him down, and you can't just have someone take care of him and send him to you. That way, your contribution will be greatly reduced."

Watson nodded and said, "I understand. If that were the case, I wouldn't have the nerve to propose becoming the chief commander of the Organized Crime and Triad Organization."

He also understood very well that, not to mention others, Kwong Chi-lap had been eyeing this position, and he was now in the Organized Crime and Triad Society. When the position of commander-in-chief was vacant, he was the person in charge of the Organized Crime and Triad Society.

If it weren't for this fire, he would have to work hard for a while to compete for the position of commander-in-chief.
