After the wedding banquet, Dong Xuebing's phone rang. It was Liang Chengpeng.
"Hello, Chief Liang."
"I heard you smashed a car that was blocking the road during your cousin's wedding?"
"That car purposely refused to leave even after I gave it two red packets. Also, the driver is from Jin Di Mansion."
Liang Chengpeng kept quiet for a while. "This group of people is endless. About two days ago, another case was reported. A villager from Jin Di Mansion had gone to gamble and lost all his money. He still owes a lot of debt, and after he returned home, he hanged himself. I heard the reason he committed suicide is because Jin Di Mansion wants his wife to repay his debt. They want him to lend his wife to them for a month, and the debt will be paid off. Sigh … Lawless … But there is no evidence."
Dong Xuebing replied. "Chief Liang, if we keep this place, something big will happen sooner or later."
"I know." Liang Chengpeng paused for a second. "You said you are going to Jin Di Mansion to catch gamblers? How confident are you? "
"… 90%."
"Alright. If you can catch them and get evidence, I will take charge of Jin Di Mansion's case!"
Dong Xuebing was stunned for a second and quickly replied. "I promise I will complete this task!"
"I will leave it to you. But you must first find the gambling tools and money. Gambling money of tens of thousands is not enough to keep many people here. You must get at least a few hundred thousand to a million. This way, you can find an excuse to suppress Jin Di Mansion. Do you understand?"
"Don't worry!"
"Ok. Be careful." Liang Chengpeng doesn't know where Dong Xuebing got his confidence from. But Jin Di Mansion had done many evil deeds, and Liang Chengpeng is furious. If Dong Xuebing can arrest them legally, Liang Chengpeng doesn't mind adding fuel to the fire. But if Dong Xuebing can't find anything, Liang Chengpeng will not suffer any losses.
Chief Liang's change of attitude gave Dong Xuebing some confidence. After hanging up, he brought Chu Feng to his Buick MPV.
"How is the investigation I asked you to do?" Dong Xuebing asked.
Chu Feng replied respectfully. "Chief Dong, I had looked through the case files. Our station had received many reports from the villagers pointing to Jin Di Mansion. But after we reported it to the County Bureau, there was no news. I remember Chief Liang had sent his men to investigate a few times, but … … there was no evidence."
Dong Xuebing looked at him. "Everyone knows there is a casino in Jin Di Mansion. Why can't we find it?"
Chu Feng replied. "First, it might be our spies. Secondly, Jin Di Mansion is a big place, and the Casino is inside. When the police arrive, the people outside will inform the people inside. Even if we can find some poker cards and dices, it's useless. After all, that is an entertainment venue, and the customers will buy poker cards and dices there. These are not considered gambling tools, and we can't use them as evidence."
Dong Xuebing nodded. "You know the person in charge of the Casino and Jin Di Mansion's manager?"
Chu Feng said confidently, "I've found out everything."
"Alright, let's go."
Chu Feng was taken aback. "Where are we going?"
"The shopping mall."
An hour later, Dong Xuebing instructed Chu Feng to go to the shopping mall to buy two sets of clothes, sunglasses, and hair dye. Dong Xuebing sprayed the hair dye on his hair. This is a spray dye, and it can change the hair color. But it is not as long-lasting as the hair dye sold in salons. The color on the spray will fade after contact with water. Dong Xuebing sprayed his hair yellow and used hair gel to straighten it up. After that, he changed into a casual Hawaiian shirt and a pair of large aviator sunglasses. He looks completely different from before.
"Xiao Chu, how is it? Can you still recognize me? "
Chu Feng smiled. "I will never recognize you."
Dong Xuebing looked at himself in the mirror and nodded. "You should also wear your sunglasses."
Dong Xuebing's sunglasses covered almost half of his face, and he had changed his clothes and hairstyle. Now, he looks like a hooligan. Dong Xuebing believes that even his mother, Luan Xiaoping, will not recognize him if she doesn't look at him carefully, let alone those who had met him a few times.
After a while, Chu Feng was also done with his disguise. He is wearing a Hawaiian outfit like Dong Xuebing.
Dong Xuebing looked at him and nodded. "Ok. You look good too. Let's get ready. Leave your identification and other belongings in my car. Try not to bring anything that will reveal your identity." Dong Xuebing threw his identification on the backseat and only kept his wallet and some money. After that, Dong Xuebing parked the Buick in an underground carpark and walked out with Chu Feng.
Chu Feng was puzzled. "Chief Dong …"
"Call me Boss."
"Boss, what are we going to do?"
Dong Xuebing laughed. "We are going to catch someone from Jin Di Mansion for gambling."
Damn! Chu Feng was stunned. "Just … just the two of us?"
Dong Xuebing nodded. "Jin Di Mansion is under the jurisdiction of the County. I can't possibly bring our officers there, as it will be crossing the line. Also, someone in our station might have connections with Jin Di Mansion. I don't want to waste our efforts. The City Police Station Chief Wan Tao is Chief Hu's man, and the County Bureau is not in control. That's why there are only the two of us. It will not be safe if we bring more people. This is our only chance."
Chu Feng was touched. Chief Dong did not even bring Liu Dahai or Chen Fa along with him and only brought him, a junior officer. How much trust does Chief Dong have in Dong Xuebing? Chu Feng was still afraid of going into Jin Di Mansion alone. But now, all his fears disappeared.
Chu Feng asked. "Boss, do you have a plan? If it's only the two of us, how are we going to catch them? "Chu Feng knew Chief Dong is capable. But no matter how capable he is, how are they going to catch them? There are at least a few dozen men at Jin Di Mansion. Two of them are collecting the gambling equipment and money. If they split up, all the evidence will be gone. Chief Dong might be able to stop one or two of them, but can he stop a few dozen of them?
Dong Xuebing laughed and looked at Chu Feng. "Xiao Chu, what do you think we should catch?"
Chu Feng paused for a second. "Catch them? No. It doesn't matter if we catch them or not. As long as we have evidence, they will not be able to escape. The most important thing is the evidence, the gambling money, and the gambling tools. In the past, Chief Liang had sent his men to catch Jin Di Mansion, but he could not find any gambling money. That's why he could not do anything to Jin Di Mansion. If we can find the gambling money, even if it is a few hundred thousand or more, Jin Di Mansion will not be able to escape. " Yan Tai County's leaders are not united, and no one can override the law alone. If there is evidence, those people who had been protecting Jin Di Mansion in the past will no longer be involved in this matter. They will withdraw from this matter immediately.
Dong Xuebing replied. "You are right. Our purpose this time is to check the gambling money."
Chu Feng replied. "Jin Di Mansion is considered a holiday resort. They only need to transfer the gambling money, and they can claim it is from the Mansion's normal operations. This is not the gambling money."
Dong Xuebing replied. "Then we will hold the gambling money in our hands. This way, the money will not be able to escape."
Chu Feng was shocked. "You are going to …"
Dong Xuebing laughed. "Let's go. We will play with them and win as much as we can."
Chief Dong is going to gamble? Chu Feng was stunned. "Is this a good idea? If we are gambling … "
"What's wrong with this? This is called giving them a taste of their own medicine. Are you afraid it will affect our reputation? This has nothing to do with that. How many of our police officers are working undercover in different places? Sometimes, to catch drug dealers, we will help them sell drugs and arrest them at the location. Is this illegal? This is only a tactic. "Dong Xuebing had planned this for a long time and had considered all the aspects.
There is only one chance to catch Jin Di Mansion.
If Dong Xuebing failed, the other party would be wary of him. They might even disband the casino and never open it again. That's why Dong Xuebing must succeed this time. His aim was to get as much gambling money as possible. The more gambling money, the more crimes Jin Di Mansion had committed. Dong Xuebing must kill Jin Di Mansion once and for all. He must destroy this triad gang!
Chu Feng was shocked and thought to himself that Chief Dong was not an ordinary person. Using gambling to control gambling? He dares to use such underhanded tactics? But thinking about it, under the protection of the umbrella, it was obviously too difficult to find evidence through normal means. To deal with this kind of person, only by using crooked methods could one not think of it and see the miraculous effect!
"But what if we lose?" Chu Feng asked worryingly.
Dong Xuebing laughed. "How can we lose? You just need to collect the money and don't worry about anything else."
Chu Feng paused for a second. What does Dong Xuebing mean? Is Chief Dong saying he is good at gambling? But no matter how good his gambling skills are, he can only win about 10,000 to 20,000 RMB. Can he take down Jin Di Mansion with this amount? It doesn't seem reliable!
… …
Jin Di Mansion.
This place is beautiful, but there is no water. It is still not comparable to the resorts in first-tier cities. But it is considered a good place for Yan Tai County. Many luxury cars are parked outside, and there are waiters in Cheongsams waiting at the entrance. Dong Xuebing and Chu Feng entered the hotel and went to the front desk to register.
"Sir, how many people?" The receptionist smiled.
Chu Feng said, "Two sirs, please give me a large suite."
The receptionist replied. "Ok. Please give me your identification card. I need to register."
Chu Feng replied coldly. "I do not have my identification card!"
The receptionist thought for a while and did not say anything. She quickly booked a room for Dong Xuebing and Chu Feng. Jin Di Mansion is not a formal place, and people can stay without their identification cards.
After entering the room, Dong Xuebing and Chu Feng did not go to play billiards or take a bath. Instead, they lit up a cigarette. From Chu Feng's information, Jin Di Mansion's Casino is very strict. Strangers will not be brought into the Casino and can only play outside. Only those who Jin Di Mansion thinks are qualified will be brought into the real Casino. That's where Dong Xuebing's target is. What he needs to do now is to think of a way to sneak into the Casino.
After a while, Dong Xuebing snubbed his cigarette. "Make a call."
Chu Feng picked up the room's phone and called a waitress over.
The waitress entered with a sweet smile. "Sir, what do you want to order?"
Chu Feng looked at her. "We want to play cards. Bring us there."
The waitress blinked. "Ok. What cards do you want to play? Mahjong? Pai Gow? Or Tie Jin Hua? "
Chu Feng looked at Dong Xuebing. He had forgotten to ask Dong Xuebing what cards he is good at. Dong Xuebing replied. "Anything." Chu Feng wiped his sweat. He did not expect Dong Xuebing to be so confident. Anything? Can he win with any card? Chu Feng immediately replied. "Tie Jin Hua." Chu Feng is good at Tie Jin Hua, and if Dong Xuebing is not good at it, he will do it himself.
The waitress went out to make some calls, and after a while, another person entered.
"Gentlemen, please follow me."
Dong Xuebing had noticed there is a Mahjong room in Jin Di Mansion. But it is for family entertainment and not for gambling. The waitress did not bring Dong Xuebing and Chu Feng there. Instead, they walked along the corridor until they reached the red-carpeted basement. The waitress brought Dong Xuebing and Chu Feng to a big private room. The room is filled with second-hand smoke, and four men are sitting around a table. Beside them, there is a staff in charge of shuffling cards.
Chu Feng knew he had come to the right place. This is Jin Di Mansion's gambling house.
At the table, a young man stood up angrily. "You all go ahead. I had lost everything." He turned and left.
The other three men looked at Dong Xuebing and Chu Feng, waiting for Dong Xuebing to sit down. These people should be tourists or here to gamble. Jin Di Mansion had gathered these people to play Mahjong and will charge them a "venue rental fee."
At this time, the waitress looked at Dong Xuebing and asked. "Do you want to play Mahjong?"
Chu Feng asked. "What are the rules? What's the fee? "
The waitress replied. "The fee for playing Mahjong here is 500 RMB per hour, and drinks and beer are all free. You all should know the rules of Tie Jin Hua. Three cards of the same suit are Leopard, and it is the biggest. Next is Gold, which is three cards of the same suit. After that, it is a straight and a pair. Two, three, five is the smallest, but it is Leopard. Oh, there is also the betting limit. You all can discuss the rules."
An old man at the table said. "We had just played a minimum of 50 RMB and a maximum of 1,000 RMB."
Dong Xuebing nodded and sat down. "Alright. We will play according to your rules."
The waitress looked at Chu Feng. "You are not playing?"
"Let me take a look first."
"Can you come over here?"
The waitress knew Chu Feng and Dong Xuebing are together and is afraid they might be cheating. That's why she brought Chu Feng away.
On the other side, the temporary table had started playing Mahjong. The waitress shuffled the cards and distributed them to the other four players. Chu Feng stared at Dong Xuebing's back. He wants to see how good Chief Dong's Mahjong skills are.
In the first round, Dong Xuebing threw his card to the girl after the cards were dealt. He gave his card to the girl and forfeited.
In the second round, Dong Xuebing got a pair, and there is only one player who did not forfeit. So, Dong Xuebing threw a maximum of 1,000 RMB, and that old man immediately followed with 1,000 RMB. Dong Xuebing threw another 1,000 RMB, and that old man followed with 1,000 RMB. After a few rounds, that old man finally asked Dong Xuebing to reveal his cards. The old man was overjoyed. He has an Ace in his hand, and it's bigger than a pair.
In the third round, Dong Xuebing looked at his cards and threw in another 1,000 RMB. The other three players were still at the table, and one of them ran away. Only the other two players followed up with 1,000 RMB. After one round, another player ran away, and only a young man was left. The young man threw in his money without hesitation and opened his cards. He was relieved. His card was Jack of Gold, and it was bigger than Dong Xuebing's Diamonds.
Fourth round …
Fifth round …
Slowly, everyone looked at Dong Xuebing weirdly. It's like they are looking at a fat sheep.
But even after losing so much money, Dong Xuebing did not even blink and continued to throw his money in.
Although there were wins and losses, Dong Xuebing lost a lot in the end. He had to pay 30,000 RMB. This was his salary for the past few months.
Chu Feng could not stand it anymore. What happened? Didn't Chief Dong say he is good at Mahjong? How come he kept losing from the start to the end? Damn! This is considered good at Mahjong? Chu Feng saw Dong Xuebing had only brought 50,000 RMB with him, and he had lost more than half of his winnings. How can he continue to gamble? Chu Feng quickly said. "Boss, your luck is not good today. Why don't you let me play?"
Dong Xuebing shook his head and threw his cards on the table. "I'm not playing anymore."
The players at the table said. "Let's play another two rounds."
Dong Xuebing waved his hand calmly and patted the waitress's shoulder. "You come."
The waitress followed Dong Xuebing out of the room. "How can I help you?"
Dong Xuebing replied. "It's too small, and it's boring. Do you have any bigger cards?"
The girl was stunned and looked at Dong Xuebing. She paused for a while and said. "I don't have a room now. I need to wait until tonight. Can you give me your room number? I will call you when I have a room." If it was someone else, the waitress will not bring him to the Casino. It's risky. But this person in front of her looks wealthy and is a spendthrift. He fits the criteria of the higher-ups. That's why the waitress decided to recommend Dong Xuebing to the Casino tonight. If Dong Xuebing loses more, she will get a commission.
"Ok. I will wait for your call." Dong Xuebing left with Chu Feng.
In the corridor, Chu Feng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Boss, how did you … lose?"
Dong Xuebing replied softly. "This money is not from Jin Di Mansion. Furthermore, the amount is so small. What's the point of winning?"
Chu Feng immediately understood Dong Xuebing's intention. Dong Xuebing is losing money to enter the Casino? But … But you can't even win such small games, how can you win in the Casino?
