"Are you saying that you are currently implementing surveillance on Huang Haifa?"
Old Xie took a puff of his cigarette and asked, the orange streetlight shining through the car window onto his face, revealing his excitement.
He had a long-standing grudge with Huang Haifa. Back when he was at the Qianshan Branch, he had been relentless in pursuing Huang Haifa, which led to Huang Haifa sending people to retaliate, scarring his daughter's face with a knife. This was a knot in his heart that he couldn't untie.
Over the years, he had been looking for an opportunity to put the Huang brothers behind bars, but unfortunately, after joining the City Bureau's Major Case Team, he had too many cases to handle and no time to focus on the Huang brothers.
And it seemed that even the heavens were blind. Despite the numerous despicable deeds the Huang brothers had committed over the years, they had become wealthy and influential in Huanghai City, which was a great disappointment to Old Xie.
Seeing the Huang brothers' business grow larger and their reputation in the provincial capital become more prominent, Old Xie gradually felt a sense of despair, believing that he would never get his revenge. But he never expected that the Huang brothers would actually come to him this time.
Now, hearing that Huang Haifa might be involved in a drug-related case, he couldn't help but feel even more elated. If the drug charges against Huang Haifa were confirmed, the guy would surely face the death penalty, which would finally vent the anger in his heart.
"Right, we are still in the surveillance stage, and we don't want to alert him. After all, we only suspect him, and we don't have much concrete evidence yet."
Wei Zhonghang looked at Old Xie with a playful gaze and said.
"By the way, what case are you here to investigate Huang Haifa for today?"
Old Xie glanced at Li Xiangdong and, without waiting for his response, said directly.
"What? Does Captain Wei want to cooperate?"
"Haha, that's not a problem. We can each handle our own cases, but it's a waste of resources. If we can integrate our efforts and help each other, I think this case will find a breakthrough quickly."
Old Xie's eyes lit up: "Alright, let's do it. I'll go first. The reason we're here to see Huang Haifa is mainly to find his right-hand man, Zuo Xiaodao. He is the primary suspect in the murder case at Bihai Manor a few days ago."
"Oh? You're looking for him. Haha, what a coincidence. When we were monitoring Huang Haifa and his subordinates a few days ago, we happened to collect some information on Zuo Xiaodao. I think you'll find it very interesting."
Wei Zhonghang's words carried a hint of a smile, which made Old Xie and Li Xiangdong even more excited. It was truly a case of "searching high and low without success, but finding it unexpectedly."
"Rat, bring over those video materials."
The guy who had been sitting in the back with his eyes closed lazily stretched and then took out a tablet computer, passing it to Li Xiangdong.
Li Xiangdong and Old Xie took it and found the video. The shooting time was the day before the Bihai Manor incident. The video showed a tall, thin young man arriving at a coffee shop, entering, and sitting down in front of a man wearing a hat and sunglasses. They talked for a long time before leaving in different directions.
"Is that all?"
Old Xie looked up at Wei Zhonghang, who nodded.
"Yes, that's all. The next day, the incident at Bihai Manor happened. We didn't pay much attention to this video at first, as our focus was on Huang Haifa. But after you mentioned that the Bihai Manor case might be related to Zuo Xiaodao, I thought of this video. It might be very useful to you, even if it's not much help to us."
"Thank you, Captain Wei."
Old Xie said, compressing and sending the video back to the Major Case Team.
"Captain Wei, how do you want us to cooperate?"
After sending the video, Old Xie called Wei Zhengming from the Major Case Team and got his approval. He then turned to Wei Zhonghang and asked.
Wei Zhonghang nodded and said, "We have always suspected that Huang Haifa is the major drug lord in Huanghai City, but we haven't had strong evidence. This guy is always holed up in the Baimen Nightclub, which is a den of iniquity. We also suspect that some of the drugs that the traffickers have scattered are hidden in this nightclub. However, we can't rush in, as we don't want to alert him. So..."
"So, Captain Wei, you want us to help you with this, right?"
Old Xie laughed and said. The Narcotics Squad couldn't easily enter the Baimen Nightclub, because if Huang Haifa is indeed the major drug lord, a failed attempt would make him more cautious, and he might even flee to another place, making it much harder to catch him in the future.
But if the Major Case Team were to take action under the guise of another case, Huang Haifa wouldn't be as cautious. Even if no concrete evidence was found, he wouldn't suspect that he was being targeted by the Narcotics Squad.
"Don't worry, I know what to do."
Old Xie laughed and said, without waiting for Wei Zhonghang's response. Wei Zhonghang extended his hand and shook Old Xie's firmly: "Thank you."
"Ah! No need to be so formal. We are all one big police family, and it's our duty."
The two exchanged a few pleasantries, and then Old Xie took Li Xiangdong out of the van. He didn't go far and pulled out his phone to make a call, and soon Wei Zhengming responded.
After waiting for a short while, about a dozen cars arrived one after another. Old Xie and Li Xiangdong got into a Jinbei van, where Wei Zhengming was already seated, along with An Jiajing.
"The video you sent back is very important. I've already assigned Zhang Lu to investigate the man with the hat and sunglasses. Also, An Jiajing found a lot of useful information this afternoon. But let's focus on the current task first, and we'll discuss it when we get back."
Wei Zhengming said to Old Xie and Li Xiangdong. Old Xie was excited, as he had been waiting for this day for a long time. However, Li Xiangdong was a bit confused about what the captain meant.
"Haha, wait a bit. We're going to raid Huang Haifa's den. He's been so arrogant, hasn't he? He even said we need to buy tickets to enter. I want to see if we can get in without buying tickets this time."
Old Xie laughed and patted Li Xiangdong's shoulder. Li Xiangdong felt a sense of relief, thinking, "Damn, Huang Haifa, I want to see if you can still be so arrogant then."
"Get ready. The Special Police will assist us in the operation, but be careful."
