Chapter 49
Specialty Street
Finally, the wait was over. Lu Chen got into the car and first had Liu Jie take Ka Jingzhou back. Only then did he and Liu Jie return to the military police headquarters.
This time, morphine sold for 10,000 yuan, but Lu Chen said the profit was only 5,000 yuan, and he only gave 2,000 yuan to Ka Jingzhou.
Ka Jingzhou had no objections; two thousand yuan was equivalent to several months' salary for him, so he figured he might as well take it since he hadn't put in any effort.
"Brother Huang, are you busy?"
Lu Chen walked into Huang Dayong's office. Huang Dayong was looking at the documents on his desk and didn't have time to pay attention to Lu Chen. He only glanced at Lu Chen and didn't say anything.
When they were talking about morphine, Lu Chen didn't expect that Ka Jingzhou would introduce him to Adrian, who also had business dealings with Huang Dayong.
"I'm meeting with Huang Dayong tomorrow to discuss a grain deal. What if he tells everyone about me?"
Lu Chen left Huang Dayong's office, his mind in turmoil.
Huang Dayong would definitely receive news about the Japanese army collecting morphine, and Kuroda would definitely order him to send someone to find morphine, so Huang Dayong knew about this.
The Japanese army just lost another batch of morphine, and you've already sold another batch. Even the dumbest person would suspect you.
"We need to find a way to shut either Huang Dayong or Adrian up!"
A cold glint flashed in Lu Chen's eyes. Only in this way could he ensure his safety. He couldn't possibly kill Adrian, so he had no choice but to...
Looking back at Huang Dayong's office, Lu Chen knew he had to make his move tonight, or he would miss his chance tomorrow!
"Xiao Jie, are you free tonight?"
"I'm fine, what's wrong?"
Lu Chen lit a cigarette and said that he would stay at the military police station for a while and take him out to have some fun later that night.
"Brother Huang, are you free later tonight?"
Lu Chen pushed open the office door, and Huang Dayong was rubbing his temples, seemingly annoyed about something.
"Lu Chen, what's wrong? Is something the matter?"
Huang Dayong's voice was somewhat muffled as he lay on the chair, the back of which was bent under the weight of his bulky and obese body.
Lu Chen stared at Huang Dayong's protruding belly, a fawning smile on his face, and spoke.
"Brother Huang, I've always been promoted by you, and now that I've made connections with the Japanese, I'm bound to be rich and powerful in the future. All of this is thanks to you, Brother Huang. I was just thinking that since I just got paid, I'd like to invite you to have some fun."
"Hey, you're the one who gets it right. Okay, call me later."
Upon hearing Lu Chen say that he was going to have some fun, Huang Dayong immediately woke up and jumped up from his chair.
"Brother Huang, you seem to have something on your mind. What happened? I've been working for the military police and I feel really bad about it. I hope I can help you."
From the moment Huang Dayong first entered the office, his expression was clearly agitated, which Lu Chen noticed clearly, and a bad premonition immediately arose in his heart.
"Sigh, what else could it be but that old man Kuroda?"
Huang Dayong sighed, hesitated for a moment, and then, thinking that Lu Chen was now considered one of his own, he didn't hide anything and told him everything.
"Kuroda previously sent our people to look for morphine, but after a few days they stopped. Now he says the morphine is lost and wants us to look for it again. Last time they didn't find much, how are we going to find it this time?"
As he spoke, Huang Dayong felt agitated. He scratched his head, waved his hand, and said he didn't want to talk anymore. He then lay down on the chair and closed his eyes to rest.
Lu Chen left the room and closed the door behind him. Kuroda then told Huang Dayong that the morphine was missing.
"In that case, we can't let Huang Dayong leave alive today. If Adrian tells Huang Dayong tomorrow, it will be dangerous."
Lu Chen gritted his teeth, made up his mind, strode out of the military police station, and headed towards the French Concession.
He first went home. If he wanted to kill Huang Dayong, he would definitely use a gun. He tucked the gun into his waistband and went out.
"The gun made too much noise."
Lu Chen shook his head, but there was no better way now.
He could have easily sent the rats to kill Huang Dayong, but he was still worried about the possibility of Huang Dayong surviving. He needed to see him die right before his eyes so he could feel at ease.
"Rat Three, Rat Four, you two go find the location of the warehouse, and let me know when you find it."
After putting down the two rats, Lu Chen returned to the military police station with his gun at his waist.
Lu Chen felt a little regretful. He didn't want Huang Dayong to die so young, since he didn't know the location of the warehouse or the grain. But the situation was urgent, and Lu Chen had no choice but to do it.
"Brother Chen, Brother Chen."
With nothing to do at the military police station, Lu Chen actually fell asleep, and Liu Jie had to shake him awake in the end.
Where is Huang Dayong?
Lu Chen wiped his face to clear his mind and looked at Liu Jie in front of him, asking a question.
"Director Huang is already waiting in the car."
As they were talking, Liu Jie lit a cigarette for Lu Chen. Lu Chen took two puffs and finally came to his senses. He then walked out of the military police station with Liu Jie and got into the car.
"Brother Lu Chen, where are you taking us for fun?"
Huang Dayong sat in the back row, his hair still slicked back with hair oil, and looked at Lu Chen with curiosity.
Acting like a dog...
Seeing that Huang Dayong had dressed up specially, Lu Chen cursed inwardly, but answered quickly aloud.
"Specialty Street, Brother Huang."
"Wow, that's impressive! You're really going all out today."
Upon hearing the words "specialty street," Huang Dayong's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but smile.
Liu Jie was also quite excited, not expecting Lu Chen to take them to the specialty street.
The specialty street is very famous in the Chinese-speaking areas, but some of the better quality items are quite expensive.
Although Huang Dayong was greedy, given his stingy nature, he was unwilling to spend so much money. Liu Jie, on the other hand, had only heard of it and had never been there.
After saying that, Lu Chen didn't speak again. He looked out the window, the image of that woman from last time appearing in his mind.
He really didn't expect that this woman was a virgin, and he didn't even know if she was still there.
"Let's park here. It's full of car lights inside, and it'll be too bright to move around when we go in. It's inconvenient."
Huang Dayong flashed a set of large yellow teeth and made Liu Jie stop the car at the entrance of the specialty street.
Lu Chen and Liu Jie got out of the car. Looking at Liu Jie, Lu Chen's lips twitched. This was also a virgin.
Liu Jie now looks like a small tent, even Lu Chen can see it, let alone those women.
As soon as they entered the street, women dressed in various styles surrounded the three men.
Liu Jie was hesitant and awkward, but was eventually pulled into the house by a slightly plump woman.
Huang Dayong, on the other hand, was much more relaxed, with one on each side as they entered the room amidst calls of "Grandpa".
Lu Chen kept his eyes straight ahead as he walked towards the innermost part of the themed street, the place where he had met her last time.
But when he arrived, he didn't see a single person, only a house with its door open.
"Is he/she no longer there?"
Lu Chen was somewhat disappointed, but also secretly pleased, both hoping to see her here and not wanting to see her.
