Chapter 199 - 144: Container Auction
Sieg: Cookies and evidence have already been delivered to Officer Mig, he’s satisfied and has agreed to deal with those gang members as soon as possible. It seems he’s also got a new girlfriend, got involved with a female dispatcher from the control center. It’s likely he’ll be spending quite a bit during the courtship, so our timely gift of cookies was just perfect.
Allen Zhang: Did he say how he’s going to handle the Black Gang?
Sieg: It’s going to take some time; that gang has some connections in the police force, too, but not as solid as ours. Guess what? The third-level officer who lost the competition for promotion to Mig received benefits from the Black Gang.
Allen Zhang: That third-level officer has enough clout to cover the entire Black Gang? Now Mig has the bonus of being the Zone 5 leader and has a former boss, Police Chief Mans, to help him stand his ground. What were they thinking trying to bribe a regular officer? Wouldn’t it be better to spend the same money to bribe detectives or the Police Chief?
Sieg: The third-level officer is Black.
Allen Zhang: Oh, that’s not surprising. No wonder they get along with the gang so well. So, Mig has to consider the feelings of that Black officer when applying for the operation? What did Officer Mans say? Didn’t he show any sign of gratitude after getting benefits from the intelligence we provided?
Sieg: That’s exactly what I was about to say. It’s not that complicated. They never got along to begin with, and after all, Mig doesn’t have much sympathy for Black people. The Black officer is responsible for Zone 7, while Mig is from Zone 5; they barely see each other. Officer Mans is their immediate superior—just have the Black officer temporarily assigned to night duty under Mig in Zone 5.
Allen Zhang: Whose devious idea was this?
