Chapter 589 Ye Haoxuan: I will personally go and get this money back!
At the dock, Ah Le gestured to his men to bring out a black briefcase, which was filled with cash when opened.
"The money is here, count it carefully."
The bald man grinned and winked at his men, who immediately stepped forward to count the cash and handed Ah Le the list of weapons.
Just as the two were about to complete the handover, Qiu Gang'ao shouted in a low voice: "Make your move!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qiu Gang'ao's squad burst out from behind the containers like tigers. The muffled thuds of silenced pistols rang out one after another, and the outer guards fell straight to the ground before they could even react.
Ah Le's three core guards reacted extremely quickly, instantly drawing their guns to retaliate. But just as they raised their hands, a dark figure darted out like a ghost—it was Feng Yuxiu.
His movements were faster than anyone could imagine. The short blade in his hand flashed coldly, and the first guard's throat was instantly slit open. Blood spurted out, and he fell to the ground without even letting out a scream.
The second guard had just turned around when Feng Yuxiu pounced on him, his short blade piercing his heart with deadly precision.
The third guard was terrified and turned to run away, but Feng Yuxiu casually threw the short blade. Like a hidden weapon, the blade accurately pierced the guard's back. The guard staggered a couple of steps and collapsed to the ground.
In just ten seconds, three core guards with considerable skill were instantly killed by Feng Yuxiu, leaving everyone on the dock stunned by this sudden turn of events.
Ah Le's face turned deathly pale. He hadn't expected Ye Haoxuan's men to be so fast, and he certainly hadn't expected his most trusted guard to be so easily defeated.
"Grab Ah Le!" Qiu Gang'ao shouted, leading his men to rush towards Ah Le.
Ah Le snapped out of his daze, no longer caring about the weapons and money, and turned to run towards the depths of the dock—where a speedboat he had prepared in advance was moored, his last resort.
"Ah Le is running away!" Upon seeing him, the Crown Prince immediately led his men in pursuit.
But Ah Le's men fought desperately to stop them, and the two sides instantly became entangled in a fierce battle.
Upon hearing the commotion, Tian Yangsheng immediately led his men to the depths of the dock, but they were still a step too late.
"Brother Xuan, Ah Le ran towards the speedboat!" Qiu Gang'ao's anxious voice came through the communicator.
Ye Haoxuan sat in the command vehicle, his brows furrowed, and said in a deep voice, "Asheng, speed up the interception! Ashu, finish what you're doing and provide support immediately!"
By the time Tian Yangsheng and Feng Yuxiu arrived at the dock, Ale had already jumped onto the speedboat, started the engine, and the speedboat shot off like an arrow, quickly disappearing into the dark sea.
Tian Yangsheng raised his hand and fired a few shots at the speedboat, but the night was too dark and he couldn't hit the target at all.
"Brother Xuan, we couldn't catch up. The speedboat went too far." Tian Yangsheng's voice was filled with frustration.
Ye Haoxuan was silent for a few seconds, then slowly said, "Forget it, don't chase. The situation at sea is complicated, and rashly pursuing them could easily lead to accidents. First, control the situation at the scene, keep an eye on the weapons and prisoners, and make sure nothing goes wrong."
"clear."
The battle at the docks ended not long after.
Ah Le's men were either subdued or killed, and Baldy was captured alive by Qiu Gang'ao.
After Qiu Gang'ao finished taking inventory of the scene, he reported via communicator: "Brother Xuan, the scene is under control. All the weapons are there, a total of fifteen boxes, all heavy weapons; a total of seventeen prisoners, none escaped."
“Very good.” Ye Haoxuan nodded. “Xiao Ma, arrange for someone to come and meet us, transport the weapons back to the headquarters for safekeeping, and take the prisoners back with them and keep them under strict guard. Qiu Gang’ao, take a few men and search the area around the dock again to see if there are any people or clues left behind by Ah Le.”
"Roger that!"
The command vehicle slowly drove away from the high ground and headed towards the dock.
Ye Haoxuan looked out the window at the pitch-black night, his eyes deep and thoughtful.
Although Ah Le escaped, his weapons were successfully intercepted, severely damaging his strength and preventing him from causing any trouble in the short term.
And his undercover career was one step closer to a complete end.
On the dock, the brothers were busy cleaning up the site and loading the weapons onto the trucks.
Feng Yuxiu walked to Qiu Gang'ao's side, wiped the blood off the short blade, and said in a calm tone, "A-Le got away."
"It's not your fault. He was prepared and ran too fast." Qiu Gang'ao patted his shoulder. "The speed with which you dealt with those three guards has saved us a lot of trouble."
The sea breeze was still blowing, carrying a salty, fishy smell.
Under the lights of the dock, the brothers bustled back and forth. A brilliant interception operation had achieved all its objectives except for Ah Le's lucky escape.
the next day.
Hongxing Gang.
Ye Haoxuan sat in the main seat of the main hall, with an arms inventory and a list of prisoners in front of him. Tony stood beside him, reporting in a low voice:
"Brother Xuan, all fifteen boxes of weapons have been properly stored. As you instructed, we have contacted the police contact person and will transfer the weapons tonight. The prisoners are all locked in the basement and guarded by special personnel. There have been no problems."
"Hmm." Ye Haoxuan tapped the table with his fingertips, his tone steady. "When handing over the weapons, have Xiao Ma lead two teams to escort them. Check the route in advance to prevent Ah Le's remnants from launching a sneak attack. Also, have Tony thoroughly investigate Ah Le's whereabouts. He may have escaped, but his base remains. We must wipe out his remaining forces to avoid endless trouble in the future."
"Understood, I'll arrange it right away," Tony replied, turning to leave.
"Wait a minute," Ye Haoxuan called out to him. "There's something else. How's the investigation going with the funds involved in Ah Le's deal with the arms dealer?"
“We’re investigating.” Tony handed over a document. “According to the prisoners’ confessions, some of Ah Le’s funds were transferred through underground banks in the Macau casino. I had someone check, and the money just arrived in the casino’s account yesterday and hasn’t been transferred yet.”
Ye Haoxuan flipped through two pages of documents, his brows furrowing slightly: "I'll personally go to the casino to retrieve this money and, while I'm at it, verify if there are any other funds involved. Tachibana, you're coming with me."
Tachibana Masahito stood up from the corner and nodded slightly:
“Okay.” He was a man of few words, but he never hesitated to speak when Ye Haoxuan asked.
After a quick tidy-up, the two drove to the casino in Macau.
Around noon, the car arrived at the entrance of the casino. As soon as we got out of the car, we were overwhelmed by the noise. The neon signs at the entrance were flashing with dazzling light, and well-dressed men and women were walking in one after another. The air was filled with the smell of perfume and cigarettes and alcohol, which was completely different from the tranquility of Hong Kong Island.
"Let's go check out the underground banks first." Ye Haoxuan straightened his collar and walked into the casino side by side with Tachibana Masahito.
The casino was bustling with activity, with crowds surrounding the gambling tables. The sounds of dice clashing, chips falling, and cheers rose and fell, deafening everyone. The two weaved through the throng and headed towards the underground money exchange deep within the casino.
Just as we reached the corner, we heard a muffled thud, followed by gasps from the crowd.
