Tavia open the door to her apartment when someone pulled her in “wah, you scared me” she said and slapped Bosco on the chest

“ you scared me today, I was so worried about you when I notice the mistake you made”

Tavia nodded “ yeah I know I was so scared myself I didn’t know what to say or make of it. So I just lied about Ron said it to me once and hope it would work.”

“from now on you need to be more careful, I’m not sure if Zhi wah are suspecting anything but we all know that she is dangerous. And if you make another mistake your life may be over”Bosco warned

Kawloon police station

Bosco came back after visiting Tav “ so how is Tavia?” Catherine asked and handed a cup of hot coffee to him

“she is ok, I told her to be more careful after this time. I’m worried that Zhi wah will suspect her. After all she haven’t been in Choi Long for long and haven’t showed her loyalty towards them in anyway”

Catherine nodded in agreement when Selena came back “Hi Wong sir”

“so what did Zhi wah do?” Bosco asked

Selena shook her head “ nothing, she just followed them to the building that was it. She didn’t even stayed a bit longer”

“I’m surprised that she didn’t get up there by her own” Bosco said

Catherine shruggle “ Maybe she is waiting for something”

“anyway it seems that Sheh zhi wah are starting to trust Tavia more and more. Todays invitation is a good start. All we can do now it’s to hope Tavia can get near her.” Bosco said

Selena nodded “ we can always make more opportunities for them to meet”

2008-11-21

Charm have just made her last check up at Ron’s territory and typed a message “ when you are done with your routine check, meet me at the grandma sweet soup place in sai gong” and sent it to Kenny and Derek

00:50pm

Derek and Kenny parked their bikes beside each others “ you also get her message?” Kenny asked

Derek nodded “I guess we will have some fun tonight” Kenny smiled and with a nod “ we are not young anymore maybe we don’t have a match with the youngster now”

Derek hit Kenny lightly “ I doubt they can have a match with us. Let’s see what Zhi wah are up to” and went in together

Charm was seating in the front table nearest the exit and saw Kenny and Derek entered together “ wah, did you guys meet up first?”

“we never need to meet up, we can feel each others presence” Kenny joked and seated on her right side while Derek took the left side “so what have you ordered to us?” Derek asked

“I haven’t order anything to you guys, I let you decide yourself” said Charm and continue her sweet soup

Derek and Kenny exchange look “ oh, what shall we take then? let’s order something more to eat I’m kind of hungry” said Kenny

“that’s a great idea, I haven’t eat dinner yet” said Derek and looked at the menu on the table

“take you time guys, I have asked this place and it doesn’t close until 5 o’clock in the morning so you have the whole night to decide” said Charm while keeping her eye’s on the entrance to the building

“what shall I take then? number 1, 2 , 3, 4 .” Kenny asked when Charm answered “I have number 4 it’s good otherwise 15 it’s not bad ”

“really? so what will you take Kenny? I would like to try the same as zhi wah’s her seems to be tasty”

Kenny shrugged “ well you have already decide, I take number 15 but I can try some from you right?”

Charm took a sip from her soy milk and nodded “ great then everyone got something to eat”

two hours later

“shall we take the bill” Derek asked and looked at Charm

“ let’s order one more portion of liquor sweet dumplings, I really want some” said Charm

Kenny get up from the seat “ I order it for you and in the same time paying”

Charm eat up all the liquor sweet dumplings “ are you satisfied?” Derek asked before going up Charm nodded with a light smile “it was really tasty” and walked out from the shop and cross the road to enter the building when Kenny and Derek followed.

When they was reaching the fourth floor Kenny whispered “ I wonder how she have planed to enter?” Derek shook his head I have no idea let’s watch and see

They just pass the room 14 when Charm starting to wobble in her steps and made some noise “hey open up, hey did you hear me open up” she mumbled while pounding on door gate

the door swung open and a guy with frustration shouted “who the hell..” but stopped when seeing a scantily clad Charm. Charm looked at him with a half open eye “ oh sorry, I think I knock the wrong door” and started to walk to the next door but get stopped by the guy who have now open the gate “ No you are just right come in” and dragged her in, Charm didn’t make any resistance but pretended to fall “wow, wow be careful” the guy said who now have been pushed further in in the apartment when Charm looked up at him and smirked and give him a hard kick on the stomach so he fell on the sofa, while Derek and Kenny made a entrance by kicking the other two guys who was approaching  when the fourth guy came out from the kitchen with a knife which Kenny easily dogged away from and technically took it from him and was now pointing it against his throat. Making sure that all of them was tied up in the middle of the apartment  Kenny gave the knife to Derek  and patted him on the shoulder “have fun” and walked to the door

It was only one of them who hadn’t his mouth taped “who the hell are you, you got the wrong guys, we don’t know you”

Charm who was seated in the sofa threw a picture of Ron in front of the guy “ so you mean you knew him?”

The guy looked at the picture and sweat was forming on his face “ is it him who have send you? We didn’t know he was someone with background I just got order and followed it, I don’t know anything”

Charm crossed arms “ yeah I know you just followed orders, I came today to find out who is behind”

The guy shook his head “ I have no idea, I don’t know him. He just came and gave us a bundle of money and told us to beat this guy up”

Charm looked at him “ oh really? you don’t know who he is but you should remember how he looked like right?”

The guy shook his head again “ no, I don’t remember “ Charm raised eyebrows and nodded while moving her forefinger up and down once. Derek read the sign and walked up the guy “don’t remember anything?” he repeated and slide the knife blade against the guys check “ you really don’t remember?”  the guy was literally all wet by his own sweat but didn’t say a word Derek smirked and made a small cut on his arm which made the guy cry out in pain “still don’t remember” Derek asked. The guy just shook his head and Derek looked at Charm who wigwag him to take the next one. Derek nodded and turned his attention to the guy on his left and removed the towel “ what about you?”

The guy was shaking “ please don’t hurt me, I really don’t know anything” Derek looked eye’s with the guy “ oh really? So it was them who told you to come along” the guy nodded sharply “exactly, I really doesn’t know anything you have to believe me, if I knew I would have tell you right away”

Derek was satisfied with the answer and continue with the other guys “so?” The guy looked at Derek with horror “ I just followed order, I don’t know who he is, nor do I know how he looked like.” Derek smirked and nodded when turning his attention towards the last one and removed the towel from his mouth “ I really don’t know anything” Derek face turned dark after hearing the same sentence and gave a hard blow to he first guy who was to his left and in the same time droving the knife  down between the guy he was facing and the guy to the left “ I hate when I need to force people to tell me the truth”

“ if we tell you who he is, he will kill us” the guy to the left who looked at Derek with horror said

“oh, so that’s why you guys don’t remember anything, if you think you can protect yourself by keeping the mouth shut you are wrong. You may survive but I feel sorry for you brother he just enter primary school right? it is a shame if he dies when he crosses the street due to a careless driver ” said Charm from the sofa

The guy who had his back facing Charm was shaking “ what do you want from me? don’t hurt my brother!”

“ I can promise that non of you or your family member will get hurt if you tell me who he is but if you still think that keeping the mouth shut is the best way I have nothing I can do but I just want to add that I feel pity for a old man that need to sell fish balls on the street for living will get his legs broken because of his son, and I wonder what a pretty face will feel if her face get cut and what... “ Charm get interrupted “ it’s enough I tell you who he is but keep your word by not hurting us or our family” the first guy said

Charm nodded “you have my word” he swallowed “ it was Michael Tse from Cheng Long, you are also a gangster so you should know his background, even if you know who he is you can’t do anything. He once said that if we have problem we can use his name”

“ use his name? might give you more problem" Charm mocked and get up from the sofa “ thanks and sorry for disturbing your resting” and leaved
