If you want to be a good person, find Huadi

Chapter 294 Lei Yongxian 2

Just when Lei Yongxian was feeling extremely bored with his work, felt that he was not respected by others, had no sense of accomplishment at all, and was even considering leaving the ICAC, a mysterious man suddenly appeared in front of him.

The appearance of this person seemed to be arranged by fate. Although Lei Yongxian only met this person once in his later life, this brief meeting completely changed the rest of his life.

After that meeting, Lei Yongxian seemed to have lost all contact with this person. No matter how hard he tried to find him, it was like a stone sinking into the sea, with no trace. Even after his retirement, when he had more time and energy to track down this person, he ultimately failed.

However, this man's appearance was no accident. He had come looking for Lei Yongxian, carrying a handwritten letter from Lei Luo. Lei Yongxian was very familiar with Lei Luo's handwriting. After all, he had once been determined to send Lei Luo to prison and had consulted a large number of Lei Luo files for this purpose. So, when he saw the letter, he could almost immediately determine that it was from his father Lei Luo.

The content of the letter was unusually concise yet profound. It mainly advised Lei Yongxian to trust the people in front of him and said that if possible, Lei Luo hoped that Lei Yongxian could make contributions to the motherland.

Although the letter was not long and its main content was just to tell Lei Yongxian to trust the person in front of him, the words still revealed Lei Luo's deep fatherly love for his son.

The three days that Lei Yongxian spent with that person were incredibly beneficial. During those brief three days, Lei Yongxian felt like he had undergone a life-changing experience. Not only did he learn many secret agent skills from that person, but more importantly, he understood the true meaning of national justice, dedication, sacrifice, and what truly matters.

Three days passed in a flash, and the man finally left. However, before he left, he left an order to Lei Yongxian, or rather a suggestion - he hoped that Lei Yongxian would continue to stay in the ICAC, and it would be best to start with the new recruits who joined the ICAC each year to cultivate their patriotism.

Following that man's instructions, Lei Yongxian quietly persevered within the ICAC for over twenty years. During these long years, he received no assignments, remaining in a state of quiet concealment. However, he did not feel discouraged or lost, for he was fully aware of his mission and responsibility.

Until ten days ago, an unexpected opportunity came to Lei Yongxian. Director Wang suddenly found him, which made Lei Yongxian realize that perhaps the moment he had been waiting for for a long time had finally arrived.

The reason Lei Yongxian was awakened this time was truly urgent! As the day of Hong Kong's return drew near, Western nations, led by the Eagle Country and America, never ceased coveting China. Although they had ostensibly signed an agreement agreeing to Hong Kong's return to China, they had no intention of returning it.

Therefore, the closer the handover draws, the more frequent these Western countries' petty actions become. They constantly attempt to stir up major incidents in Hong Kong and create trouble for China. However, the Chinese leadership is fully aware of these petty actions, but their current priority is to ensure a smooth handover for Hong Kong, so they can only tolerate their behavior for the time being.

However, this doesn't mean the top brass is completely inactive. In fact, they've been preparing for this for a long time, secretly mobilizing pawns they've deployed years ago. These individuals will be crucial in ensuring Hong Kong's smooth return.

It was against this backdrop that Lei Yongxian was awakened. Director Wang had a long conversation with him, providing him with a detailed overview of the current situation and relevant information. Lei Yongxian, fully aware of the weight of responsibility he shoulders, will fully cooperate with Wah Di, playing his part both within the police force and within the ICAC, contributing to Hong Kong's smooth return.

Huadi and Director Wang met on a quiet afternoon. Their conversation lasted the entire afternoon, and they shared with each other some important intelligence they had recently obtained.

After in-depth discussions, they jointly discovered that those behind the scenes deliberately destabilizing Hong Kong had split into two factions. One faction advocated immediately causing chaos in Hong Kong in an attempt to hinder its smooth handover. This faction made no secret of its opposition to Hong Kong's handover and attempted to achieve its ulterior motives by creating chaos.

However, another faction is more secretive and insidious. They are called "moderates," but in reality, their intentions are far more sinister. This faction advocates for a series of covert backdoors within Hong Kong, ensuring that even if Hong Kong is successfully returned to power, they can still manipulate everything behind the scenes. These individuals have been operating in Hong Kong for years, their tentacles extending into every sector, from the police force, the Independent Commission Against Corruption, the legal system, and even the education system, where they have numerous operatives.

Looking back, although the militant faction had caused considerable trouble, these were quickly extinguished, causing no significant damage to Hong Kong, ultimately allowing the city to return to normalcy. However, this latter faction operated more covertly, their schemes only gradually coming to light over a decade later. When these schemes were uncovered, the damage they caused far surpassed that of the militant faction.

Hua Di was fully aware of the potential damage these insidious individuals could cause to Hong Kong, so he had an in-depth conversation with Director Wang, detailing these issues. Director Wang also took these individuals hiding in the shadows very seriously and said he would report the matter to senior management so that they could formulate an appropriate response strategy.

After discussing those troubling matters, Director Wang brought Huadi some delightful news. The two hundred high-performance off-road vehicles they had donated to the southwest border defense, along with five years' worth of fuel, had been secured. Although Huadi knew some of the supplies might be embezzled by corrupt individuals, he was completely satisfied as long as the majority of them were actually used by border drug enforcement officers.

Hua Di is well aware that with the country's continuous development and progress, some corruption will eventually improve. He believes that as the country grows stronger, justice will prevail over evil, and those who commit crimes will eventually receive the punishment they deserve.

This donation cost Hua Di and his men absolutely nothing. Remember Khun Sa's lieutenant, Zhang? While Hua Di tacitly allowed Zhang to take the drug money, he never actually consented to the drug lords using it. After Zhang and his men fled Hong Kong, Wu Dehui followed them like a ghost. With his formidable skills, Wu Dehui effortlessly smuggled the money away without anyone noticing.

Indeed, the entire process went incredibly smoothly. Wu Dehui was like a ghost, not alerting drug traffickers like Adjutant Zhang. His actions were so silent, it was as if he didn't even exist in this world.

So why didn't Wu Duc Hui take direct action against the drug traffickers? There were actually two reasons. First, Princess Yunluo was pregnant, and Wu Duc Hui knew he was about to become a father. He wanted to accumulate merit for the child, so he decided not to kill them. Second, the drug traffickers had lost such a huge amount of money. If they returned to Khun Sa, his brutal methods would likely lead to a fate far worse than being killed directly. Since Khun Sa would personally punish them, why would Wu Duc Hui dirty his hands?

The morning after Huadi's meeting with Director Wang, sunlight streamed through the window onto Huadi's desk, where he was buried in some documents. Suddenly, a clatter of footsteps shattered the silence of the office. Then, Lei Yongxian and a group of men stormed into the police headquarters.

Lei Yongxian walked straight towards the director's office with a serious face, without the slightest hesitation. Behind him followed a group of men with an aggressive look on their faces, which made people feel intimidated.

After entering the director's office, Lei Yongxian had a brief conversation with the director, and then, accompanied by Li Wenbin, they went to Huadi's office. Huadi was a little surprised to see them, but still stood up politely to greet them.

However, Lei Yongxian did not give Huadi a chance to explain. He said to Huadi bluntly, "Come with us." Huadi was a little puzzled, but seeing Lei Yongxian's determined expression, he knew he could not refuse.

Just as Huadi was about to leave with them, Zhu Huabiao and Wang Zhicong happened to pass by. Seeing this scene, they immediately rushed into Huadi's office.

"What gives you the right to arrest people?" Zhu Huabiao yelled at Lei Yongxian with his eyes wide open.

"We have enough evidence." Lei Yongxian responded without showing any weakness.

The atmosphere quickly became tense as both sides insisted on their own opinions and refused to give in. The argument grew louder and louder, even attracting the attention of other police officers.

"You can't just arrest people like this!" Wang Zhicong also joined the quarrel.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Lei Yongxian's men stepped forward to try to stop Zhu Huabiao and Wang Zhicong. The emotions of both sides became increasingly agitated, and finally they started fighting.

Suddenly, the office was in chaos, with tables and chairs overturned and documents scattered all over the floor. Although Huadi tried to dissuade them, it was too late.

This fierce conflict ended with all the people brought by Lei Yongxian falling down. Although Zhu Huabiao and Wang Zhicong also suffered some minor injuries, their momentum was not diminished at all.

However, Huadi did not take the opportunity to escape. He looked at the mess on the floor, sighed helplessly, and then silently followed Lei Yongxian out of the office.

At the same time, the police officers involved in the fight were severely punished, which made Zhu Huabiao and Wang Zhicong even more indignant.

"We must get an explanation!" Zhu Huabiao said gritting his teeth.

So, they brought their team members and went to the ICAC again in a rage, demanding an explanation as to why Wah Di was arrested.

Seeing their aggressiveness, the ICAC staff were somewhat bewildered. Just when the two sides were at a stalemate, Li Wenbin personally intervened.

"Stop arguing!" Li Wenbin's voice was deep and powerful. "We will investigate this matter thoroughly. You can go back first."

Although Zhu Huabiao and Wang Zhicong were unwilling, facing Li Wenbin's majesty, they had to give up temporarily and left the ICAC with their people.
