1955, Hong Kong Island.
Eighteen-year-old Lei Luo was hit with a stick on Portland Street. When he woke up, he had a bunch of memories in his mind that were not of this era, such as high-rise buildings, police academy training, criminal psychology, etc., As well as the changes in Hong Kong Island in the next few decades.
He doesn't know where these memories come from, but he knows one thing: these memories allow him to live, and live better than anyone else.
That stick also brought about another change. His body became different. His endurance, strength, reaction, and recovery were all far beyond those of ordinary people.
He helped his cousin seize the dock and catch the mole in exchange for his first gold.
Use the money to forge academic qualifications and join the Royal Port Police. He will start as a uniformed patrol officer, make friends with old detectives, collect fees, establish rules, level the community, and fight enemies to death.
The four major old-established societies are all under the Lei family's fee system, and the three major detectives are all under their command. From now on, there is only one voice in Hong Kong Island.
International gangs came across the sea, and Lei Luo took the opportunity to reach out to the Golden Triangle, San Francisco, Penang, Macau, and even Moscow.
In 1966, ICAC was established. Others were frightened by the news. Lei Luo had already made plans. His people would go in first and have the final say.
He voluntarily resigned as Inspector Zonghua and retreated from the stage to behind the scenes. He controlled not only Hong Kong Island, but also all over the world.
On the surface, he is a wealthy businessman and philanthropist on Hong Kong Island, but in fact he is still the maker of the rules in this land.
