Chapter 250 Occupy My Advantage

"Damn it! Is he trying to cross the sea?"
A few people followed the smell of blood and eventually caught the strange man with long braids who was trying to escape. Although the man was strong in martial arts, his brain didn't seem to work well. He was heavily injured and completely unaware that someone was chasing him from behind.
But what's equally annoying is that this guy's hideout is actually very far away. A few of us chased him from the New Territories all the way to Kowloon, and then from Kowloon to the Victoria Harbour. If we kept chasing him, we would have to cross the sea to Hong Kong Island. Such a long distance, not to mention Lin Jiajun, even Chen Qi was getting tired. Only Dong Dong, with the highest martial arts skills, was still in good shape.
"Damn, I can't go on anymore. If you can't do it, you can chase after them. I need to rest for a while," Lin Jiajun said, panting and bending over.
"Hey, neither of us women has said we can't do it, and you, a man, can't do it? How embarrassing," Chen Qi put a hand on Lin Jiajun's shoulder and panted heavily. "Hey, how about this, Winter, you go chase after them and I'll rest for a bit before catching up?"
Winter: "……"
"Oh my, what is he doing?" Lin Jiajun suddenly exclaimed.
Ahead is the Victoria Harbour, between Hong Kong Island and Kowloon. Besides the large port on this strait, there are also many big and small docks along the coastline. But in many more places, there are still undeveloped beaches and cliffs.
Not far away, along the coastline, there are a large number of villas and office buildings, which can be considered as the place where the wealthiest people live on Hong Kong Island besides the Victoria Peak.
Among the residents in this villa area, in terms of assets, some of them may not be worse off than the rich people on the Victoria Peak. However, the so-called 'status' on Hong Kong Island is kind of a distorted issue with historical legacy. It seems that only by living in the Victoria Peak, the originally exclusive residential area for foreigners, and becoming neighbors with the ruling officials on the island, can one be considered a true 'Chinese tycoon' in the eyes of the secular world.
Just like pets that live closer to their owners seem to have a higher status. If they can sleep in the owner's bedroom, they are considered top-tier pets, with a status even higher than a servant.
However, the new generation of tycoons, especially those from the mainland or with close ties to the mainland, are gradually breaking free from this distorted rule as the world changes. Although the sun still hangs over the peak of Tai Ping Shan, it is already setting. In terms of buying houses, some people have started to choose beaches with better environments and feng shui.
As for the Victoria Peak, to be honest, it's just a small mountain and not really scenic. The reason why the foreigners chose this place initially was simply because the development area on the Hong Kong Island was limited, and the mountain top here has a clear spring, which can ensure an adequate supply of fresh water. In the following decades, there are countless places with better scenery than the Victoria Peak.
Returning to the topic, after the long-braided weirdo fled to the seaside, he actually jumped into the water from a not very high cliff.
Several people hurriedly followed, and a big ripple appeared on the water surface under the breakwater, with some bloodstains floating out.
"Suicide?" Dongdong was slightly stunned, looking at the water, feeling hesitant.
"No need to chase, I'll contact the marine police and send the divers down to look for him."
Victoria Harbour is under strict control of the marine police. If they come through Li Wenbin's channel, a boat can be there in as fast as 20 minutes. Lin Jiajun was about to make the call when Chen Qi next to him swiftly took off his outer clothing, leaving only his close-fitting underwear.
“我靠，大姐你身材不错啊！”林家俊下意识赞叹说。
“靠，你的关注点在哪里？！”陈七活动了一下腰肢，说：“妈的男人都一个鬼样子，懒得和你计较，等20分钟，他就是一条咸鱼也漂得无影无踪了，找个鬼啊，我先下去看看！”
After speaking, without saying anything, he jumped straight into the water.
Another ripple, Chen Qi seemed to be particularly good at swimming, and he submerged as soon as he twisted in the water.
"Don't look at me, I... I can't swim." Dōngdōng still had no expression on her face, but her words were somewhat awkward.
"Big sister, remember to contact your husband to send someone over."
Lin Jiajun is sometimes a bit sleazy and won't risk his life, but in the current situation, as a big man, he really can't just stand by and watch Chen Qi take risks alone, especially when his water skills are actually better than most water police.
Some things don't need to be considered, it's just instinct, so I quickly took off the heavy clothes and jumped into the water without a gun, only carrying a versatile military knife.
The Victoria Harbour is a deep-water port, big enough to accommodate an aircraft carrier. Even along the shore, there is enough depth for it. After Lin Jiajun jumped down, he looked around and did not see Chen Qi's figure. So he turned his body and dived down, swimming a few times, and finally saw Chen Qi floating in the water, trying hard to pull a drain cover embedded in the wall.
When Lin Jiajun came, Chen Qi pointed to the sewer cover, indicating that he needed help.
Lin Jiajun had dealt with the Urban Planning Department before and knew that the sewer covers leading to the sea were sealed with special locks that only the Urban Planning Department could open. It was almost impossible to open them by manpower, especially in the water. However, he still helped Chen Qi. The two of them grabbed the cover on both sides and stepped on the underwater wall, exerting force together.
I didn't expect that, the lid suddenly lightened in my hand and opened.
Lin Jiajun pointed to the pipe behind, Chen Qi nodded, indicating that this guy went in from here, and before Lin Jiajun made any response, she turned and followed in.
Lin Jiajun was so angry with her that he almost cursed at her. Who knows how long this damn tunnel is, and who knows how long it will take to swim to the end? What if you can't catch your breath halfway and can't find the way out? Isn't it a dilemma to be suffocated inside? This woman is indeed a bit small-minded and brainless.
But since the Long Braid Weirdo can get in, it shouldn't be too exaggerated the other way around. So, exerting force on both legs, quickly float to the water surface, briefly explain the situation to Dongdong on the shore, take a deep breath again, dive into the water, and then drill into the cave.
Swam for about twenty meters, for about ten seconds, and then I saw Chen Qi in front of me burping out a bunch of bubbles... This is a typical sign of running out of breath and not being able to hold on. When she spits out the bubbles, she's going to choke on the water next.
Lin Jiajun swam up and grabbed her hair from behind, holding her neck with one hand to prevent her from moving around, and then gave her mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
With a breath of fresh air mixed with the smell of smoke, Chen Qi's condition improved slightly. The two continued to swim forward for less than five meters and saw a bright light above their heads.
Whoosh...
With two splashes, two heads emerged from the water.
"Damn, you took advantage of me!" Chen Qi said angrily as she shook the water off her long hair.
"Damn, if you don't like it, you can give back the attitude you just had." Lin Jiajun squinted as he looked around the dim surroundings.
