The reason for such a long delay was mainly for safety reasons.
In order not to attract attention from Siam, both Su Jianqiu and Li Wenbin disembarked from Malay, and then entered Siam through other means.
After arriving in Siam, Li Wenbin did not meet Su Jianqiu. Instead, he took several of his subordinates and began to inquire for news.
"Haotian, we've got midnight snack, let's go!"
Li Wenbin pushed open the door of the small hotel, then walked next door and called out to another police officer.
In order for this operation to go smoothly, Li Wenbin did not bring too many people. Apart from himself, he only chose two people.
And these two people are not members of the Central District Crime Squad. Instead, they are people borrowed from Tsim Sha Tsui.
"Say it first, I won't treat you today."
The door of the hotel opened, and Ma Haotian, who had a dark face, walked out first.
He is a recent newcomer to the Tsim Sha Tsui Police Department. Within five years of being a police officer, he was recommended for the trainee inspector examination, successfully passed the internship period, and now serves in the Tsim Sha Tsui Crime Squad.
The silent man following Ma Haotian is Zhang Ziwei. He works in the Tsim Sha Tsui Crime Squad and is one of Ma Haotian's subordinates. His performance is usually tepid.
The reason why Li Wenbin chose these two people was not only because Ma Haotian understood Siamese and could serve as a translator, there was another more important reason.
That is Ma Haotian, Zhang Ziwei and Su Jianqiu. The three of them were orphans who grew up together.
Among them, Ma Haotian is the eldest among the three.
If Li Wenbin hadn't stepped in and deceived Su Jianqiu into being his undercover agent, Su Jianqiu would probably have chosen to go to Tsim Sha Tsui to hang out with Ma Haotian after graduating from school.
This trip to Siam is focused on keeping secrets, and the most dangerous person is naturally Su Jianqiu who is going to meet the Eight-faced Buddha.
For the sake of the other party's peace of mind, and because it was a secret operation, the first helper Li Wenbin thought of was to naturally recruit the other two good brothers and eldest brother.
Among the three, Ma Haotian, as the eldest brother, has the calmest personality and is neat in doing things, so he is naturally the best.
Su Jianqiu likes to take shortcuts, so he works as an undercover agent with Li Wenbin. Zhang Ziwei is ordinary, but the best is his calmness in doing things. In addition, he has no ambition, so he lives a leisurely and comfortable life.
Bourne did not come to Siam with Li Wenbin. Since he was going to borrow the tiger skin from the Intelligence Bureau, it was naturally impossible for him to sneak over like Li Wenbin and others.
It has been two days since the three of them came to Siam. During these two days, Su Jianqiu has been running around the Eight-faced Buddha and wanted to find a chance to meet him. Unfortunately, as the Eight-faced Buddha is a white noodle dealer in the Delta, it is not something that ordinary people can meet. It can be seen, so Su Jianqiu hasn't got the chance yet.
Su Jianqiu couldn't find the opportunity to see the Eight-faced Buddha, so Li Wenbin and others' plan naturally couldn't be launched. So these three people just turned into ordinary tourists and spent every day in Siam.
Ma Haotian and Zhang Ziwei are both singles. After coming to Siam, they had no constraints of status and had a lot of fun these two days.
In order to match each other well so that the two of them can do their best, Li Wenbin naturally had to accompany the guests in person.
Well, this is what he said himself. As for whether it is true or false, naturally benevolent people have different opinions and wise people have different opinions.
At the beginning, the three of them did not foresee that there would be such a fun opportunity in this operation.
So it was inevitable that I was a little unprepared.
In human terms, after two days of being free and unrestrained, three grown men who let themselves go had no money left.
Money makes men brave. Now that they have spent all their money, their courage will naturally become less.
Even if you go out for a late-night snack, you have to first determine who is treating you.
"Don't worry, I won't starve you."
Li Wenbin smiled freely at this. Unlike the two bachelors who had whatever income they could spend, Li Wenbin, as a man with a family, plus he As an operational commander, the budget will naturally be larger.
In addition, he has a wife after all, so he naturally saved some money on some project choices in the past two days.
“Drunken shrimp today!”
Since Li Wenbin paid the bill, he naturally took the order.
Hong Kong Island is not far from Siam, and there are many tourists here, so tourists and the boss have begun to have some tacit understanding.
Even though Li Wenbin doesn't understand Siamese and the boss doesn't understand Cantonese, the two parties can still communicate smoothly.
Li Wenbin nodded at the shrimps in the water tank, and then pointed at the three of them. The boss nodded in agreement, and then raised four fingers.
Li Wenbin took out four one-hundred-dollar bills and handed them over. The other party quickly collected them, and then began to use a small fishing basket to fish for live shrimps in the water tank.
Soon, a basin full of shrimps was collected, and the boss started to season it. The other party directly picked up the whiskey next to him and poured down half of the bottle.
Then he grabbed a lot of coriander, onions, garlic and Siamese special spices with his bare hands to season. After adding the seasonings, the boss quickly stirred it in the basin for a few times, and then began to divide the plates and place them in front of Li Wenbin and the other three. .
While stirring and dividing the dishes, there were still a lot of shrimps that were not drunk and were jumping out of the pots and plates alive. Everyone was not surprised by this.
After Li Wenbin saw the drunken shrimps on the table, he walked to the stall next to him, ordered some rice noodles, and took out another banknote and handed it over.
The boss naturally opened the fire and put in the stir-fried ingredients.
“Well—don’t tell me, although this thing looks a bit cruel and unhygienic, it tastes really delicious.”
It was obviously not the first time for Li Wenbin to eat drunken shrimp. He directly scooped up a large spoonful of shrimp and ingredients with a spoon, stuffed it into his mouth, then squinted his eyes, and was not in a hurry to chew, just feeling it quietly. The taste of shrimp jumping in your mouth.
When the whiskey mixed in the shrimp began to burn his throat, he took a bite and the juice immediately filled his mouth. The delicious and sweet taste of the shrimp was so rich that it seemed that it could not be dissolved.
The original mixed flavor of seasoning and whiskey suppresses the fishy smell of shrimp very well.
Li Wenbin half-squinted his eyes, feeling the rich and distinct taste experience in his mouth.
Zhang Ziwei on the side also made similar movements. Only Ma Haotian frowned and looked at the plate in front of him. Then he held a pair of chopsticks in his hand and kept staring at some shrimps that were still jumping around. Whenever they wanted to When he jumped out, he pressed the other person into the juice.
He obviously had some resistance to eating live shrimps, so he thought of drowning the shrimps first, so that eating them would not be so psychologically burdensome.
Soon, the owner of the nearby pho shop brought over a large plate of pho, and the three of them shared the plate of pho with plates filled with drunken shrimps.
“Hiccup—I’m so stuffed. It’s still early anyway, why don’t we go and eat?”
Ma Haotian was the last one to eat because he had to wait for all the drunken shrimps to stop moving. Done.
After finishing their midnight snack, the three of them sat motionless at the stall. In the end, Zhang Ziwei was the first to lose his composure and couldn't help but ask a tentative question. "Hey, you young man, do you understand that you need to be moderate?"
When Ma Haotian heard Zhang Ziwei's words, he was the first to scold him.
"As a police officer, no matter where you are or what your identity is, you should keep yourself clean."
Li Wenbin waited until Ma Haotian finished speaking, with the same sad expression on his face Open your mouth.
“Damn, if you two don’t want to go, then we can just go back, what’s the matter with just sitting here!”
Zhang Ziwei was not frightened by the two people's pretentiousness. As early as the first time the two did this, he mistakenly thought that this was their true thoughts.
But when the three of them passed by the door of a shop with pink lights on and several ragged ladies sitting inside, Zhang Ziwei couldn't help but take a second look out of curiosity.
At that time, Ma Haotian and Li Wenbin had similar attitudes. They severely criticized Zhang Ziwei's wrong ideas for a while.
At that time, Zhang Ziwei was really ashamed and couldn't help but almost swore on the spot that he would never stand up to this kind of thing in the future.
As a result, Ma Haotian changed the topic and walked directly to the store, muttering that he wanted to criticize those people personally.
Li Wenbin also hurriedly followed, saying that as a law enforcement officer, even if he is not in his own jurisdiction or country, he must condemn this kind of behavior.
Zhang Ziwei was thinking, "Holy shit," he even wondered if the two of them had water in their heads.
Unexpectedly, after the two of them entered, their expressions quickly changed, and then they even went directly into other separate rooms with those ragged women.
At this time, Zhang Ziwei still didn’t know that the two of them were duplicity.
So he decisively joined the criticism team.
Afterwards, the three of them lay down and took a bath together, and Zhang Ziwei couldn't help but laugh at the other two.
Ma Haotian said with a sad face that he really wanted to criticize them at first, but unfortunately these people's life experiences were too miserable, so he couldn't help but feel compassion for them. lent a helping hand.
Li Wenbin spoke more grandly. He said that he actually wanted to infiltrate these guys to see if there was any more heinous involvement behind them.
What can Zhang Ziwei say now? These two guys are both serious and independent, and they can pretend and act better than those ragged young ladies.
So this time after eating the midnight snack, he saw the two of them sitting quietly on the chair without moving. He naturally guessed what they were thinking, so he took the initiative to bring it up.
The two of them were talking about things like yesterday and the day before yesterday, but what was different from the previous few days was that Zhang Ziwei would not cooperate with them this time.
The reason for this is naturally that he played too frequently in the past few days and he felt that his body could not bear it.
Zhang Ziwei was very proud of this. He also had needs a few days ago, so he tolerated even being lectured by the two people.
But now that he has no control over his waist, he naturally doesn't care about it. How can he still suffer such grievances?
"Ahem, but you are still young after all. It is normal for young people to have this kind of thinking. Hey, okay, okay. As a big brother, since you want to see something, then I will reluctantly do it. Agree, but say it first, just this time.”
Although Zhang Ziwei choked him, Ma Haotian still talked to himself to smooth things over without changing his expression.
"Well, I am the commander this time, and your actions must be carried out under my supervision. I will just let you go and take a look. Let's say it first, I am just taking a look."
The same is true for Li Wenbin, who doesn't care whether Zhang Ziwei is willing to take the blame.
"No, please don't, we will go home and sleep right away. I don't need the help of a good brother like you, and I don't need the expense of you, Sir Li. Let's go back and have a good sleep."
Zhang Ziwei was determined not to go tonight, so he spoke very forcefully.
"Think about it, this is Siam. It's a foreign country anyway. Even if we don't do it, others will think we did it. In this case, why not just prevent ourselves from being wronged."
Ma Haotian's body is obviously better than Zhang Ziwei's. He is not fully satisfied with just two days of freedom.
"Ah Wei, I have to criticize you a few words. Young people, not only must have the courage to admit mistakes, but also know that mistakes can be corrected. Don't worry, we won't laugh at you when you go back. . ”
Although Li Wenbin may seem polite, he is actually very playful. An experienced driver like him is obviously much more careful about the maintenance of firearms than Zhang Ziwei.
At this moment, it is obvious that there is still extra ammunition that has not been used up, so I am also reluctant to end it here.
However, Zhang Ziwei obviously made up his mind not to cooperate with the two of them.
"We have been out for three days, and Aqiu has not replied to any messages. He disappeared yesterday. You don't care about his safety, how can you still have fun?"
Zhang Ziwei's words stunned the two of them.
“Awei is right, it’s time to get down to business. Originally I thought we would take action tomorrow, but now it seems that it would be good to communicate in advance. Aqiu will definitely have to suffer a little in the past two days. "
Now that Zhang Ziwei has brought up business, Li Wenbin doesn't think about anything else.
Su Jianqiu's disappearance was actually within Li Wenbin's expectation.
After all, the Eight-faced Buddha has been operating in the delta for many years. Hei Chai was able to get on the line with him in the first place because Hei Chai had done things for the Ni family for many years.
Although the other party's status is not high, he has been in contact with the people of the Eight-faced Buddha many times, and his identity is at least innocent.
In addition, the white noodle dealers in Hong Kong were severely hit at that time, and Hei Chai was cautious enough. It can be said that they coincided with the needs of the Eight-faced Buddha, and the two of them cooperated.
But now Su Jianqiu is different. Although he also comes from Heichai's line, his identity is not as good as Heichai.
In this case, if you want to win the trust of the Eight-faced Buddha, you will naturally have to suffer a little.
Li Wenbin had expected this. Even the reason why Bourne was not with Li Wenbin and the others was to save Su Jianqiu's life at the critical moment.
The reason why Li Wenbin took Ma Haotian and Zhang Ziwei to play so deeply in the past few days is actually to win people's hearts.
If Su Jianqiu's plan doesn't work, the two of them will have to stage a painful trick.
Hearing Li Wenbin's words, Ma Haotian also fell silent.
Although he didn't say it out loud, he had already guessed that this mission would not be easy.
After all, Li Wenbin is a superintendent-level boss. If it weren't for the special mission, the two of them would not be so cool with each other. Being able to eat at the same table would actually be enough to brag about for a long time.
