Chapter 54: Surprise for Hei Laohu Members

This afternoon Hao Zhao again received the arrival of thirty-four mercenaries in his hotel. He had just arranged a change of guard time at the entrance of the hotel lobby and the basement entrance as well as the door of the room occupied by Ou Julong and Guan Zheng. Not having any manning duties in the three places, he allowed him to rest in the hotel room next to Ou Julong's room. And they are ordered to always be on standby if suddenly get an emergency call.

Especially for the bodyguards guarding the entrance of the hotel lobby, Hao Zhao ordered that the presence of the six people did not look conspicuous in the eyes of the people, so they were not suspected by Hei Laohu members who were also in charge of security at the King Palace Hotel. While six guards in the basement were assigned to monitor from inside the cars parked there, so it was not visible to others.

He had guessed, once Ou Julong and Guan Zheng's phones were activated, their locations would definitely be discovered soon. But he wanted to see if Wei Chung would dare to look for her by sending people to bring the two men here.

Sure enough, Hao Zhao's curiosity soon paid off. He who had just wanted to have a conversation with Ou Julong and Guan Zheng in his room, was contacted by the bodyguards guarding the lobby via handy talk radio.

"Rajawali, this is Eagle 1. Replace," heard the sound of HT radio located on the sofa table of this VIP room.

Hao Zhao immediately grabbed the radio. Rajawali is a code she uses as her initials during her communications via HT radio with her bodyguards.

He pressed the talk button and answered the call. "Elang 1, Rajawali is here. Is there any information? Replace."

"Report, Rajawali. A few people consisting of small groups had just entered the lobby and climbed upstairs. If calculated, there are at least five groups of five to seven people. Their movements were very suspicious, it was seen that they were giving body signals to the security at the entrance earlier. Do they need to be intercepted? Replace," the bodyguard heard giving a report.

"This must be Hei Laohu's people," Hao Zhao thought.

Then he asked again. "Elang 1, where are they headed? Replace."

"Their goals are different. Two groups climbed the elevator, heading to the 15th and 16th floors, the rest climbed the emergency stairs. Thus, Rajawali. Change," replied the bodyguard.

Hao Zhao was tickled. Why did any of those people climb the emergency stairs? From the 1st floor to the 17th floor where Ou Julong and Guan Zheng stayed is not close, it would be very tiring if taken on foot. It must have a specific purpose. Are they buying time, waiting for another herd?

"Surely they're splitting up and they're going to be gathering somewhere, but where?" Hao Zhao wondered to himself.

"Elang 1, wait for my instructions," Hao Zhao concluded.

If they were to split up, there would definitely be other groups coming after. Hao Zhao had yet to get a report from the bodyguards guarding the basement, so he took the initiative to inquire about the conditions in the underground parking lot.

"Tiger 1, Tiger 1, Rajawali calling. Change it," Hao Zhao said.

Someone's voice immediately replied. "Rajawali, this is Tiger 1. There's something we want to report. Replace."

It was true what Hao Zhao was thinking. There should indeed be another group coming from that underground floor.

"Please, Tiger 1. Change," said Hao Zhao.

"Just ten cars went into the basement parking lot. From each car came two men. They were waiting for the elevator. We can make sure they hide the gun behind their backs. Do we need to intercept them now, Rajawali? Change it," the guard reported.

Hao Zhao thought for a moment then said. "No, just let them get on the elevator, Tiger 1. What needs to be considered is their purpose to what floor. Report immediately once their destination floor is known. Thus, replace."

"Understand, Rajawali," said the bodyguard.

Hao Zhao had a surprise for Wei Chung's subordinates. The location of Ou Julong and Guan Zheng's room had been known for sure by Hei Laohu's people, they would definitely come to this room. Now how did he intercept those people without causing a ruckus and harassing the hotel guests.

"Has the traitor's subordinates come here, Director Hao?" Ou Julong from his bed asked.

"It seems so, Ou Julong," Hao Zhao replied glancing at Ou Julong. Then continued. "You take it easy, Ou Julong. I already have a plan to frame them.

"Well, it looks like it will be a lot of fun, Director Hao," Ou Julong sounded excited.

"Of course," Hao Zhao said with a smile. He then stood up and said. "You two wait here. I need to talk to the bodyguards outside."

Hao Zhao walked out and opened the door.

"Make the bodyguards resting in the room to get ready. Immediately gather in the corridor," Hao Zhao said ordering one of the bodyguards at the door.

"Alright, Director Hao," the bodyguard replied.

Hao Zhao without closing the door walked back into the room. Once there, it was heard again someone was calling his initials via HT radio.

"Rajawali, Tiger 1 wants to report," said the guard standing guard in the basement.

"Come in, Tiger 1. Rajawali. Change," Hao Zhao replied.

"Rajawali, all those people got into two lifts. Their goal was the same, which was the 16th floor. Change," the guard reported in a hurry.

"Well, here it is. 16 Floor. It must be the 16th floor where they will gather and together they will rush to the 17th floor, precisely here," Hao Zhao thought.

He gave instructions to the bodyguard. "As soon as they reach the 16th floor you immediately follow the elevator ride and gather with the team of Eagle 1 on the 15th floor. Make sure the people on the emergency stairs have gone upstairs, then you follow them. Replace."

"Well, understandably, Rajawali," said the guard.

Hao Zhao without wasting any time immediately gave the same instructions to the guards watching in the lobby.

"Elang 1, Rajawali wants to enter. Change," call Hao Zhao.

"Rajawali, Eagle 1 here, please come in. Change," replied the bodyguard.

"Have my instructions been understood? Immediately take the elevator to the 15th floor and join the Tiger 1 team there. Change it," Hao Zhao said.

"We understand, Rajawali. We'll intercept the suspicious group from the 15th floor emergency staircase so they can't escape. Change," the guard chimps.

"Alright, get it done immediately," Hao Zhao ended the conversation.

Hao Zhao turned to Ou Julong and Guan Zheng who were sitting quietly from earlier.

"I'll be out for a minute. You guys just wait here," he said.

"Are you going to intercept them now?" ask Ou Julong.

Ou Julong would like to miss a moment like this. Excitedly he lowered both his legs from the bed.

"I'm coming, can't not" he said, trying to stand up.

But just as he was about to stand up, his belly which was still wrapped in bandages was painful, thus making him slouch.

"Ugh.." he lamented while holding his large belly.

"Ou Julong," Guan Zheng exclaimed as he hunted towards Ou Julong and swept over him.

While Hao Zhao who saw the spirit of the bald fat man only shook his head.

"Why is this guy so reckless?" he said in his heart.

But outside he cried out. "Well, if you insist, Ou Julong. Guan Zheng, get him."

Guan Zheng only nodded his head slightly.

Then the three middle-aged men walked out. In the corridor were already lined up thirty-eight trained bodyguards, ready to wait for Hao Zhao's orders.

"Guardians, we're going to confront those who want to troublemake here. They carry sharp weapons. Stifle them all without causing a fuss. Do you guys understand that?" said Hao Zhao.

"Understood, Director Hao," they replied in unison.

"Then let's go. Two men behind us, two men in front. The rest of them were facing ahead," Hao Zhao said again.

The bodyguard troops set up a formation that lined up in front of Hao Zhao the three, then walked forward. While four people were escorting in front and behind the three people.

They waited at the end of the corridor leading to the 17th floor emergency staircase. From here when viewed from the 16th floor emergency staircase, their position is not visible, as there are turns at every turn of the floor.

Before long they were standing there, there was a sound of people's feet coming from the bottom towards here. A few seconds later, people in plainclothes with a machete in each hand began to appear. They had actually prepared to finish off the target.

But what they had not expected, as soon as the front man had just entered the corridor of the 17th floor, there were thirty-four guards standing guard in front, lined up against the wall, while Hao Zhao, the, Ou Julong and Guan Zheng flanked the two bodyguards in front and behind him. If you want to reach them, of course you have to break through the ranks of the guards in front first.

"What the fuck?" yell out the front man.

Hearing the sound of people shouting, Hao Zhao who did not want to disturb the hotel guests immediately hinted at the guards to act.

Without lingering, the front guard directly beat the person who shouted earlier. The bodyguard's kick was unavoidable by the thug earlier, so he was pushed back and hit his friends who were behind.

The other bodyguards also began to approach the horde of sharp-armed thugs and beat them to the point of not picking. Although they have weapons in hand, but here, in such a narrow place there is no point. Wrongly swinging a weapon will even hit the body of your own friend. They just become months. Every swing of the guards' feet and hands, they must have been unable to avoid.

"Purpah...!!"

"Oh, mother, my legs..!"

"My nose is broken..!!"

Complaints of pain were heard from the thugs. They were forced to overlap on the emergency stairs, there were even those that befell the people behind the rows which of course made them roll downwards. But just as they were about to stand up, came twelve more bodyguards from downstairs, preparing to beat up these people.

Be tens of Wei Chung's subordinates were beaten up from the top and bottom of this makeshift staircase. They're surrounded. They cannot escape, fight for free. Finally they only accept the resignation of beaten people.

"Forgive us, do not strike again" the men begged for forgiveness while prostrating themselves on the steps of the stairs.

But any bodyguards would stop if they did not get Hao Zhao's orders. Who wouldn't be happy to get a toy like this? They continued to beat up Wei Chung's subordinates, willing feet, hands, head, whatever they could hit.

"That's it, enough," Hao Zhao said.

As soon as his voice rang out, the rest of the bodyguards from the upper and lower floors stopped the beating. At the very least, the number of Hei Laohu members who were overlapping in pain here was around fifty people. They all bowed and bowed.

Hao Zhao, Ou Julong who was on Guan Zheng's papah walked to the end of the steps. When viewed from below, where Hei Laohu's gang was groaning in pain, the three people looked so dignified.

"Do you know wrong?" Hao Zhao went down one step of the stairs.

"For example, Director Hao. We were wrong. We want to make money on this property of yours. We beg you, forgive us" said one of the thugs prostrating.

"Why do you want to be troublemakers here? Are you Hei Laohu's people not looking at me anymore?" ask Hao Zhao.

"It's not so, Director Hao. Our.. We are here on the orders of Chairman Wei to subdue the two men," he replied as he pointed at Ou Julong and Guan Zheng.

"Oh, your chief wants to disturb my guests, is that it?" reply Hao Zhao cynical.

Instead the thug became trembling. This will certainly have an impact on the cooperation between Hei Laohu and King Palace Hotel in the future.

"It's not so, Director Hao. Our chairman just.." he wanted to explain.

But Hao Zhao directly cut in. "Tell it to Wei Chung. Since he's been harassing my guests, then the cooperation of both sides ends here. You guys Hey Laohu please leave my hotel, if there's anything left, then I'll break his leg, you know?"

"We understand, Director Hao," the thugs replied in a crowd.

"Wait for what else? Not fast from here?" Hao Zhao raised both of his eyebrows, like scaring these people.

"We're leaving. We're goin. Come on." said the thug, taking his comrades away and leaving behind sharp weapons scattered on the floor and steps of the stairs.

"No one goes through the elevator. Your feet are too dirty to ride in my hotel elevator. And also bring the security guard who is standing guard in the lobby and basement with you. Otherwise, then I'll break his legs as well" Hao Zhao rebuked.

While enduring the pain, dozens of thugs hurriedly descended the stairs, some even crawling due to a broken leg.
