Chapter 29: Being Fished (Daily)

The seafood boat originated from the songtang boat that provided entertainment for fishermen in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China.

Ten years ago, a big boss decided to build a larger and more luxurious Jumbo Seafood Restaurant.

In the end, it cost countless money and the giant ship, which was praised by the media as the Dragon Palace on the Sea, was completely formed. It is 76 meters long, 28 meters high, and has a displacement of more than 3,000 tons. It adopts the traditional royal decoration style, with dragon elements everywhere, and is extremely luxurious.

Before the Japanese delegation arrived in Hong Kong, Meng Fan entertained guests here and enjoyed the fireworks show at night...

But something happened to it recently.

According to the file, this seafood shop was filled with a corpse stench that was completely different from the smell of seafood. All kinds of rumors spread, and the originally prosperous business suddenly plummeted.

After receiving the report, the relevant jurisdiction immediately organized police forces to investigate, only to find that there was only a faint sense of resentment and corpse energy on the ship.

At that time, the patrol policemen carrying relevant exorcism equipment agreed that by letting them board the ship for a careful and detailed inspection, the relevant dangers could be eliminated.

However, the big boss behind Jumbo Seafood Restaurant is unwilling to do so. He insists on dispatching the ghost-catching team, preferably from high-level people, to make the scene bigger and say that he can provide compensation:

Two million Hong Kong dollars.

This is an undoubted and very easy-to-obtain clean reward. You only need to send one person to go through the motions and you can easily get it.

As a result, Meng Fan, who stayed behind at the headquarters, left.

Don't look at the jokes about the big boss being too busy, but he is actually in a good mood——

After solving the supernatural incident, I had some seafood and returned to the office with a huge sum of two million.

It is true that the financial department has been unconditionally supporting their ghost-catching team, with very high salaries and allowances.

But Meng Fan believes that he can set up a special foundation of his own to provide additional subsidies to the families of martyrs who were injured or even died in the line of duty.

Who would mind having too much money?

Achievements in one fell swoop.

About an hour later, the sports car parked in Victoria Harbor, with gusts of sea breeze blowing by.

After looking at the large bag of magic weapons placed in the back seat, Meng Fan decided to pick it up. After all, the big benefactor had said in advance that the bigger the scene, the better.

"It's really killing a chicken with a knife."

"Probably in order to restore our reputation, we deliberately mobilized troops and mobilized people like this."

Before he whispered, his eyes had already fallen on the giant sea food boat in front of him.

The ancient imperial palace? It lives up to its name, and many movies and TV series have been filmed here.

However, at this moment, it was covered by an almost imperceptible layer of corpse energy. Based on personal experience, Meng Fan judged that it was Zi Zhan.

The weakest of the weaklings in the zombie family, it moves stiffly and moves slowly. A strong adult man holding a torch and shouting at it can scare away the corpse energy accumulated in its throat...

"How can you create a big scene? You can kick it into pieces with just one kick."

"Forget it, when the time comes, go to Jiuzhou Bugang and spend a few rays of mana to release the Fire Cloud Curse, otherwise you will be embarrassed to take the clean money."

With that said, Meng Fan jumped up and went directly to the deck of the seafood restaurant.

Although there were no customers, the waiters were all on duty. They all looked surprised at the stranger who suddenly jumped up.

Before they could react, a voice came over.

"The ghost-catching unit is responsible for handling this commission."

As he spoke, the certificate flashed past.

Meng Fan acted vigorously and said again: "Where is your boss or manager?"

"Here, here, the boss will be here soon."

Almost at the same time, a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes trotted over and said with a smile on his face:

"It turns out to be Chief Inspector Meng."

"You came here in person and really made our treasured seafood boat shine..."

As the relevant columns were aired, Meng Fan became very popular and was no less popular than any other celebrity.

But he lives in seclusion, either participating in internal meetings or personally handling various important and major cases, and has little contact with ordinary people.

Because of this, I was not frightened by this enthusiasm. Instead, I felt that the other party most likely had other intentions.

"Let's deal with the source of the corpse smell first. Do you need to take photos or something?"

In one sentence, the topic was brought to the right track.

"If you can take photos, that would be great. After all, posting them can make diners feel at ease and business can gradually improve."

As expected.

Meng Fan nodded and led the manager and his team towards the source of the corpse energy.

Sure enough, it was a purple zombie.

Although it looks like it will turn into a ferocious white zombie just a few minutes away from the heat, it has not yet taken this step. Seeing so many big men coming around, it immediately buries into the corner of the cryocontainer, a bit like a shy little girl...

Jiuzhou Bugang.

Finger pinch.

Less than a ray of mana was consumed.

There was no other way. Meng Fan was worried that the fire would be too strong and burn the hull of the boat. A fire snake scurried past. After it hit the purple zombie, it made a loud bang and started to burn violently using corpse oil as fuel.

Looking at the fishing nets and discarded foam boxes piled around, he probably knew what was going on.

The society killed people and dumped their bodies. One of the corpses was frozen, and before it had time to grow, it was fished out by Jumbo Seafood Restaurant along with the fish catch.

After being robbed for nothing, in order to restore its reputation and completely dispel the concerns of the diners, they insisted on making a big scene and asked the ghost-catching unit, which has been in the limelight recently, to help endorse it.

The logic is sound and there is nothing wrong with it.

Whether there is any other purpose will be revealed once we meet the financial backers behind the scenes.

"Sir Meng, you are really like this..."

The manager smiled broadly, gave a thumbs up gesture, and said in a flattering manner:

"The luncheon has been prepared upstairs, please be sure to enjoy it."

Hongmen Banquet?

The thought flashed through his mind. Meng Fan had confirmed that they had something else to ask for, and he became increasingly curious.

You know, I used to fish by myself, but I didn’t expect that today I would be caught as a fish.

So, he half-jokingly said: "According to the ICAC Bribery Prevention Regulations, public officials cannot accept meals from wealthy businessmen."

Of course, just listen to this kind of scene.

In the specific implementation process, it is purely a friendship and there is no direct or indirect interest relationship. The ICAC has no control and cannot control it.

"The Chief Inspector was joking."

A loud voice sounded in the corridor, and a middle-aged fat man came into view: "Brother First and several assistant directors often come to my place to eat."

"The ICAC's own bosses go to the golf course every two days. If they were punished for eating, they would have been jailed long ago."

After speaking, the humorous tone made the atmosphere relaxed.

"Your surname is yours, boss."

"My surname is Li."

Hold hands together.

Meng Fan took a serious look at Boss Li. His forehead was full and square, his nose was fleshy but not flat, and there was a faint red light flashing in the hall, a sign of good fortune.

In other words.

The other party is a serious businessman who doesn't take advantage of others, so we can date him.

Therefore, Meng Fan agreed to this banquet.

Facts have proved that the so-called Hongmen Banquet does not exist at all, and the other party's only plan is to catch a big fish from the ghost catching team and form a good relationship.

When doing business, it is inevitable to offend others, and it is easy to be hated by peers and villains. The current environment is experiencing a strange recovery. Knowing professionals can save your wealth and life at critical moments.
