Seeing the two women suddenly reconcile for no apparent reason, Shawn Young was instantly in high spirits. He laughed and said, "Hehe—Alright, from now on, we're all on the same team. Let's get to know each other better and help each other out!"
"Hmph—who's on your team? You came to Hong Kong and didn't come see me right away, instead you ran off to Portland Street to party!" Rainie Cheng turned her head and coquettishly complained to Shawn Young.
"Uh—didn't I have a mission to take care of? Now that it's done, I finally have some free time!" Shawn Young explained a bit sheepishly.
"Oh, so now you can spend time with me? If you can, I'll request three days off starting tomorrow!" Rainie Cheng's mood brightened as soon as she heard Shawn Young say this, and she immediately asked him. After all, it had been a while since she'd seen Shawn, and she missed him quite a bit—especially when she was alone at night, often thinking about their intimate moments together and the sensations of the Dragon-Phoenix Dual Cultivation Technique. She'd frequently find herself unable to sleep.
"Yes, yes, of course! Definitely! Hehe—" Shawn Young quickly nodded. At times like this, what man would say no? That would just be asking for trouble!
"Now that we have Rachel's help and have found some clues, even though we don't know exactly what those people are planning, at least we know who they're targeting next—it's Luna Xiao, the female leader of the Thirteen Enforcers!" Rainie Cheng said.
"That's right, but if all those people are teaming up against Luna Xiao, there must be some shady scheme at play!" Shawn Young nodded, picturing that stunning girl who seemed almost like a fairy goddess.
"Yeah, Luna Xiao—the female leader of the Thirteen Enforcers—is really low-key. Ever since I came back to Hong Kong, I've been collecting intel on her, but I haven't found much. All I know is that on the first and fifteenth day of every lunar month, she goes into seclusion! As for what she does, I have no idea. She barely manages the Thirteen Enforcers directly, keeps to herself, and rarely goes out. So it's tough to figure out her movements. Honestly, her behavior isn't like a gang boss at all—it's more like a hermit devoted to cultivation. If she weren't the new leader of the Thirteen Enforcers, I wouldn't want to go up against a woman like her!" Rainie Cheng sighed.
Rachel Sasaki suddenly interjected, "I may not know much about this Luna Xiao, but if so many people want to team up against her, she can't be simple! And based on the footage we got earlier—there might be a huge secret hidden in her, though we don't know what it is yet!" "Uh—yeah, that's possible. Do you think Luna Xiao might be really dangerous? Should we go find Anson Tin and the others now?" Shawn Young couldn't help but worry about her, knowing so many powerful enemies were out to get Luna Xiao.
"Don't rush. Since Andrew Qi and his crew will definitely go after Luna Xiao, we just need to follow that clue and we'll uncover the truth eventually. If we act now, we'll spook them and they might slip away again! So I suggest we hang back and watch for a good chance to make a move!" Rainie Cheng said.
"Huh? Rainie, do you actually know Luna Xiao's whereabouts?" Shawn Young asked eagerly.
Rainie Cheng shook her head and replied, "Not exactly. I can't track her down to the minute, but the info we gathered says—unless something major comes up, that lady boss of the Thirteen Enforcers pretty much stays holed up in her villa at Repulse Bay. She hardly ever goes out! So figuring out her location isn't that tough!"
"Oh, I see," Shawn replied, a bit distracted.
Just then, the officers Rainie had sent out started coming back, reporting what they'd found. Sure enough, just as Rainie suspected, every single Yamaguchi Syndicate member had vanished from the building, and there were no obvious clues left behind. After hearing their reports, Rainie turned to the group and said, "Alright, let's wrap it up. You all head back—I'll write up the report for this operation!"
"Yessie!" The officers quickly gathered up and, led by their team leaders, left the building.
Once the officers had left, Rainie checked the time—it was already past midnight. She turned to Shawn, cheeks flushed, then glanced at Rachel Sasaki and asked, "It's late. Shawn and I are heading home now. I've got my car. Miss Sasaki, where are you staying? Do you need a ride for you and your father?"
Rachel Sasaki, sharp as ever, instantly caught on to Rainie's intentions—she wanted to be alone with Shawn. Rachel shot Shawn a sly look, then giggled and said to Rainie, "Hehe—no need! We live nearby, so we'll just walk. Officer Cheng, you should hurry home with Shawn! He looks way too hyped up to sleep, so don't wear yourselves out tonight!"
Rainie caught the meaning behind Rachel's words, and her cheeks turned even redder. She nodded and replied, "Don't worry, Shawn knows a special massage technique. No matter how tired you are, you'll bounce right back! Hehe—"
Of course, Rachel knew Rainie was talking about Shawn's legendary Dual Harmony Technique. A hint of jealousy flashed in her eyes, but she didn't know how to say it, so she just bit her lip and said, "Yeah, that's true! I've tried it myself, and Shawn's special massage is the real deal. Officer Cheng, make sure you enjoy yourself tonight!"
"Hehe—don't worry, I will. We'll be in touch!" Rainie replied, grinning with satisfaction. She hooked her arm around Shawn, whose face was burning with embarrassment, and led him into the elevator. They waved goodbye to the Sasakis, pressed the button, and the doors closed, whisking them away from the building.
As soon as they left, Kazuo Sasaki looked at his daughter, puzzled, and asked, "Luna, does Shawn really have some miracle massage technique? If so, my old back injury could use some help—maybe I should get him to work on me next time!"
"Uh—well—let's talk about that another time!" Rachel blushed furiously as she answered.
Suddenly, Kazuo Sasaki slapped his forehead and exclaimed, "Oh man, with all the chaos, I totally forgot—George 'Oxhead' Gu, who we brought to Portland Street, is still at our place! He's under Kimiko's spell, and only Shawn can break it!"
"Uh—but Shawn's already gone off with Officer Cheng for a... massage session. He's definitely not free right now!" Rachel said, frowning, looking a bit forlorn.
"Eh, it's fine. I've already stabilized George 'Oxhead' Gu's condition—his curse won't flare up for a while," Kazuo Sasaki said, then glanced at his daughter, noticing her conflicted expression. He sighed and patted her shoulder, "Luna, I've always known—Shawn's got that look, always surrounded by women, even if he doesn't go looking. That's just how capable men are. As long as he treats you well, that's what matters."
"Yeah—I get it! Come on, Dad, let's head home," Rachel nodded, then slowly walked toward the elevator with him.
