I really don't want to be an official if I transmigrate into Qi Tongwei's life.

Chapter 418 Drug Lords Try to Deceive the Public

"what"

Kang Yaobei screamed in terror and turned to run into the room. He had only taken a few steps when the assassin in black threw his dagger and plunged it into his back. Blood splattered, and he collapsed to the ground.

The assassin in black rushed forward, and Kang Yaobei, enduring the pain, hurriedly got up, only to be kicked down again, his head hitting the wall, making his vision blurry and filled with stars.

Faced with death, what does face matter? Kang Yaobei was so frightened that he quickly begged for mercy, "Don't kill me, don't kill me, I'll give you money, I'll give you ten times the money!"

The assassin in black placed a foot on Kang Yaobei's neck. "Fifth Master asked me to give you a message: have a safe journey."

Kang Yaobei was terrified. "Who is Fifth Master? What grudge do I have against him? Don't kill me, I'll give you 1 million!"

Zuo Dao removed his mask, his face vicious. "Brother Sheng said he'd make sure you die knowing exactly what's going on."

Kang Yaobei immediately realized, "Chen Wensheng is the drug lord Fifth Master. He was the one who tipped off the police tonight, trying to make me a scapegoat, wasn't he?"

"You're very smart, but it's a pity you realized it too late."

Zuo Dao pulled out another dagger and plunged it into Kang Yaobei's heart, twisting it left and right twice, determined to leave him alive.

With his last ounce of strength, Kang Yaobei grabbed Zuo Dao's collar tightly. He never imagined that he, who had been so clever all his life, would be so foolish in this moment and die at the hands of Chen Wensheng. He recalled the times when they fought and chased girls together in their youth, and realized that it was all an illusion. Brothers are meant to be betrayed.

He was unwilling to accept it. Blood quickly stained his body, and he didn't even have the strength to struggle. If he had listened to his brother and retired from the criminal life earlier, he wouldn't have been tricked today. He died with his eyes wide open, and he would never let Chen Wensheng go even as a ghost. Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in this world.

Zuo Dao watched as Kang Yaobei breathed his last in despair and resentment, and even kindly closed his eyes for him. Killing had become a numb thing for him.

After the murder, Zuo Dao quickly looted Kang Yaobei's belongings, creating the illusion of a home invasion robbery. In those days, it wasn't news that a mainland Chinese guy died in Hong Kong.

Chenjiazhai.

Zuo Dao called from Hong Kong, "Brother Sheng, the person has been taken care of."

"Good, good, well done."

Chen Wensheng was very excited. Everything was going according to plan. Now that Kang Yaobei was dead, he would have control over all the drugs in Tianhe City.

Chen Wenxiong poured him a cup of tea. "Don't rush things. We need to remain calm and observe."

Chen Wensheng picked up his teacup and drank it in one gulp. "Brother, I also have a big gift to give Ye Xingguo."

Tell me about it.

The two brothers conspired together. Since they couldn't directly attack Ye Xingguo, they decided to try their luck with the people around him.

As expected, Chen Shunjun's attempt to arrest Kang Yaobei failed, and overnight, the news spread that Kang Yaobei was the notorious drug lord, Fifth Master.

Provincial Department.

Qing Zhonghua, Vice Minister of Public Security, was very pleased. The crackdown on the drug trafficking gang and the seizure of 2000 kilograms of drugs was a major achievement, and he could now report back to his superiors.

"Comrade Qi Tongwei, you've done a great job. On behalf of the Ministry of Public Security, I commend you. Keep up the good work!"

"Damn it, these are all empty promises." Qi Tongwei immediately saluted. "Reporting to the leader, this is my duty as a narcotics officer. The credit doesn't belong to me alone; it belongs to everyone."

Qing Zhonghua laughed heartily, "Comrade Qi Tongwei's humble and composed spirit is something we should all learn from. He's not a living devil, he's clearly the nemesis of criminals!"

"Thank you," Qi Tongwei said, forcing a smile. "You flatter me, sir. I will definitely work even harder in the future."

Ye Xingguo jokingly said, "Minister Qing, don't let his current docile demeanor fool you; he might actually be harboring some resentment."

Qing Zhonghua quickly chimed in, "Comrade Qi Tongwei, if you have any complaints about the leadership, speak up now, and I'll stand up for you."

I really have to thank those two vice-ministerial level leaders. They were just teasing him. Even if you have any complaints, you can't just say anything in front of your superiors.

"Sir, no, no, if it weren't for Director Ye's tolerance and protection, I probably would have gone back to farming long ago with my impulsive personality."

Ye Xingguo shamelessly said, "Minister Qing, this kid has finally told the truth."

Qi Tongwei was speechless. "You two leaders, don't make fun of me, okay? I have a temper too. Be careful, or I'll do something to you behind your back. You'll have diarrhea for ten days or half a month, so bad that your legs will be weak and you won't even have the strength to go to bed."

Qing Zhonghua took a sip of water. "Alright, let's stop joking with Comrade Qi Tongwei. Let's get down to business. What are your thoughts on this operation, kid?"

Good heavens, if this continues, Qi Tongwei will want to crawl into a hole in the ground, since he can't insult the top leader.

"Reporting to the leader, in my opinion, the claim that Kang Yaobei is the drug lord Fifth Master is a false rumor deliberately spread by someone."

When working, Qing Zhonghua was very serious and solemn, saying, "Continue."

The aura of a high-ranking leader is truly different, which made Qi Tongwei a little nervous.

"Boss, the reason we were able to catch the drug dealers and crack the drug bust this time was because someone tipped off the police beforehand; otherwise, we would have had a very hard time finding out."

"I suspect that the Ministry of Public Security's presence in eastern Guangdong has frightened some people, so they've used Kang Yaobei to get rid of him through the police, thus killing two birds with one stone."

Qing Zhonghua nodded; this analysis seemed to make some sense. "Comrade Xingguo, what do you think?"

Ye Xingguo, who had been keeping a close eye on Chenjia Village, naturally agreed, "Minister Qing, I also feel that this matter is somewhat suspicious. It's as if someone deliberately gave the police a big gift, with the aim of hiding the real drug lord, Fifth Master."

Qing Zhonghua didn't know much about the actual situation in eastern Guangdong, so since Ye Xingguo had made this judgment, he could only support it.

"Comrade Xingguo, based on your deduction, what should we do next? This drug lord, Fifth Master, must be eliminated."

"Minister Qing, rest assured, I will never let the drug lord Fifth Master escape justice."

Ye Xingguo immediately expressed his opinion, then looked at Qi Tongwei, since it was the subordinates who were actually carrying out the orders.

"Tell me, kid, have you found anything while keeping an eye on Yunfeng Temple lately?"

Qi Tongwei shook his head. "I haven't found anything yet. I have a bold idea, but I need the cooperation of both of you leaders."
