*This is a 2 episode series*
Jean took out her cap from her backpack and put it on. Reversing her jacket, she changed the colour from grey to black, all done without breaking pace as she mingles into a crowd of tourist chatting loudly. She walked into the coffee shop with her face down as she fiddled with her phone. The toilet is located at the back of the coffee shop in Geylang and right beside it, is the exit into the back alley. She knew she was being followed, a young man with a backpack and a phone in his hand had been on her tail since she stepped out of the bus.
She stepped out into the alley and made a quick turn to the left, stepping into the kitchen of a seafood restaurant, shaking off the tail behind her.
“HEY! you cannot be in here!”
Jean : Sorry. i’m lost.
Jean said while walking through the kitchen and into the seating area. She did not stop walking, making her way out of the restaurant and onto the five foot way by the main road. She saw the man loitering outside coffeeshop next door, trying to see if she has come out from the toilet. Jean took a picture of him. She sent the picture back to her support team and resumed her main mission.
Jean : Where is Ah Hai?
She said into her mouthpiece.
“Drone has him directly across the road from where you are now” came the reply.
Jean located the target visually as she readied herself to jaywalk across the road, a common occurrence in Geylang despite Singapore’s strict laws.
Things operate different in that neighbourhood, you don’t follow traffic rules. You jaywalk, you get knocked down, you die, life goes on. Nobody gives a shit.
Jean walked across the road briskly as angry drivers blared their honks at her.
Her team has been following Ah Hai for the past two days, and she believes he is about to make his move. Ah Hai is wanted for a series of arson and assault. He has been laying low for a long time but has shown his face recently. The word on the street that something is brewing in the underworld and muscles for hire are experiencing a huge jump in demand and payment. Many who were laying low have begun popping up on the radar of law enforcement.
Spencer: Jean, i have an ID on the man following you, ignore him. 22 years old, NUS student, with a few reports of upskirt and stalking beautiful girls to take photos of them.
Jean : I can’t decide if i should feel flattered or disgusted by this.
Spencer: You should be flattered, NUS is the top producer of upskirt stalkers in 2021, forget him, concentrate on the mission.
Jean : I see Ah Hai, he’s heading into Lorong 14. I think he’s headed towards the hotel. I’m going closer for a look.
Jean whispered into her mouthpiece, updating her boss the latest development.
Spencer : Be careful Jean, if you see anything actionable, call for backup.
Jean : ok.
Jean walked closer to the hotel and made an immediate U-turn. Her heart thumped so fast that it took her a full minute to compose herself.
Jean : Boss. Ah Long san is here too.
Spencer : What? Impossible
Jean : I ID-ed him, he’s here
Jean pretended to check her phone like a lost tourist while stealing glances towards the hotel lobby where a group of men are gathered.
Ah long san, also known as ALS, head of the Tripod gang, is a notorious gangster that operates several KTV joints and massage parlor. His gang gets into so many fights and tussle that they have a law firm on their retainer. The tripod gang are made up of men with short fuse. It takes very little to trigger them, and they have no qualms wrecking the neighbourhood to ascertain their authority. They are also one of the largest crime syndicate in the country.
Spencer : Hold on, i need to run this up the chain of command.
Jean : Holy fuck!
Jean cursed as she watched an old beat up, red Toyota pull up at the hotel drop off.
Jean : Boss…
Spencer : What?
Jean : Tua Leng Kong is here too…
Tua leng kong, is a large man, almost 100kg in weight. He operates a chain of gym on the surface, but he is one of the suppliers of fighters to different gangs and triads. Whoever can afford to pay, he will have his fighters there for them, ready to do their bidding. Tua Leng Kong, also known as TLK, has several outstanding arrest warrants against him. Even interpol wants him to assist in some investigation regarding trans border crime. The last time TLK was spotted, was before Covid happened.
TLK didn’t come alone, another two vehicles pulled up, several bulky fighters alighted, taking up strategic positions outside the hotel as if some international conference is about to take place.
Spencer : Something big is going to happen Jean. you stay where you are, don’t you dare…
Jean : I have to go in!
Spencer: NO JEAN! This is an order. do not go into the hotel!
Jean : This is what i’m trained for.
Jean pulled out her earpiece and removed the rubber hand on her hair to let it down.
She took off her black jacket, exposing a cropped top that highlighted her toned stomach. She removed her belt and allowed her jeans to slide lower, revealing her slim waist that will win her any tik tok challenge.
She took off her sneakers and traded them for a pair of heels, instantly transforming from a plain tourist into a glamorous woman who could easily be mistaken for someone seeking temporary companionship in the seedy area. Stuffing the sneakers and belt in her backpack, she casually walked towards the hotel where about a dozen men are gathered.
Several pairs of eyes eyed her as she walked into the establishment. Some looked at her with suspicions, while others looked at her with lust. She’s not afraid of being pinned as an officer, not many people knew who she was, her identity was only known to a handful of others even within the force itself.
Jean went to the counter and asked for a room for the night, sliding across her ID and her credit card.
From the corner of her eye, she noticed Ah Hai, ALS and TLk entered the lift together. She pretended to looked around the lobby, picking up leaflets of the bird park and Singapore Zoo while keeping an eye on the level the lift stopped at. The men went up to level 8
“Miss, your room is level 4. Here’s your room card. WIFI password is written behind here. Enjoy your stay.”
Jean : Thank you.
Before Jean stepped into the lift, she looked at the floor plan embossed in metal on the wall and located the position of the exit stairs. She made her way to level 7 and quickly head to the staircase.
She took the stairs up to level 8 and peeped through the door crevice into the corridor. Ah Hai, ALS and TLK were not there, they must have entered one of the rooms. Jean stepped out into the corridor and as she made her way towards the lift at the other end, she could hear a myriad of noises coming from the rooms.
Moans, grunts, laughter and even someone asking their partner to call his name.
Jean shook her head and continued walking. All sorts of weird stuff takes place behind those closed doors, some too obscene to be put into words. She slowed down outside room 811 because she smells cigarette smoke, not just your regular smoke, it’s scented, and a little herbal. Base on intel, TLK has a penchant for smoking pungent, herb infused tobacco imported from Indonesia. Her phone started vibrating, it was her boss, Spencer.
Jean rejected the call, but Spencer called her again.
Jean answered the call impatiently, taking a few steps away from 811 and stopped outside 815
Jean : WHAT!
Spencer : Jean, tell me you are not in the hotel
Jean : I am in the hotel! It’s my job!
Spencer : KC POH is heading up with a dozen men
Jean : WHAT!
Jean hung up and quickly made her way to the lift only to see the panel indicate that both lifts are on their way up. She was the one who put KC Poh into jail a year ago, and he is one of the few men who has seen her face because she was working undercover for him, collecting evidence and waiting for the right time to spring the trap.
KC Poh suffered tremendous losses and he has been putting out threats that he will kill her the moment he gets out.
Thankfully for her, the covid outbreak not just put the economy on hold, it also kept KC Poh at bay.
However, if he were to bump into her face to face in that hotel, she would surely be in deep trouble. Her identity will be revealed and she will probably never be able to get out of the hotel or the neighbourhood. There’s nothing the triads hates more than undercover cops.
KC has had a beef with TLK for the longest time and it seemed he intends to settle it at the hotel now that TLK has showed up.
Jean opened the door to the staircase and she could hear men running up.
Jean : fuck!
Heading back to the corridor, she heard the chime of the lift and there was nowhere to run. She took a breath and calmed herself down. She has seen a lot and got out of many sticky situation before. Nothing fazes her. Dead bodies, mutilated body parts, mass brawls, it’s all part and parcel of what she deals with.
Jean calmly took out her keycard, walked to the unit furthest away from the lift , room 820, and pretended to open the door of the unit.
KC Poh removed his machete from his newspaper sheath as he stepped out of the lift. He saw the woman at the other end of the corridor about to enter her room but he did not pay much attention to her. He came to the hotel for TLK.
KC Poh was about to head right to the room 811, the room where ALS, Ah Hai and TLK was in when he did a double take at the woman at the end of the corridor. She looked familiar but he cannot be sure.
KC : HEY! YOU!
Jean cursed and in her panic, slid her hotel card into the slot of that unit and she was surprised when the button turned green. Cheap hotel, cheap system, cheap security she thought. Still she was thankful for the boo boo. Jean opened the door and quickly went inside the room, shutting it behind her.
Just when she thought nothing would faze her, she turned around and let out a yelp.
Jean :aHHHHH!
James : AHHHHH!
Jean’s eyes widened at the sight in front of her, unable to tear her eyes away at the horror. Barging into a hotel room in Geylang, Jean was mentally prepared to see a few possible options, however, what laid before her eyes was something she never imagined would happened.
Instead of a couple having sexual intercourse, she came face to face with a man, a lone man, who seemed horrified that she has barged into the room.
James stood a few feet away, totally naked, a pair of scissors on his right hand and a tuff of pubes in his left, he was about to trim his pubes when Jean barged into his room. He quickly pressed his legs together in an attempt to protect his modesty.
Before Jean could calm herself down from seeing James in his birthday suit, KC Poh was already hammering on the door.
