"Is this news reliable?"
Lawrence, the police commissioner in charge of the entire Scotland Yard, held the secret letter with a distressed look on his face.
"It's absolutely true!" the female secretary whispered, "The highest level in Hong Kong received a report that Chief Superintendent Ge Bai was suspected of corruption, and evidence of his corruption and bribery was also mailed."
"So powerful?" Lawrence was stunned, "There is even evidence, so isn't Ge Bai dead this time?"
"Hong Kong Governor Dai Linzhi suppressed it!"
"Well?"
"After all, Ge Bai is a senior official assigned to Hong Kong by our British Empire, and he is also a senior member of the disciplinary forces. If this scandal spreads, our British Empire will lose face."
Lawrence nodded, he understood the thoughts of the Hong Kong Governor very well.
"Since the matter happened in Hong Kong, why did he send me a secret letter? Wouldn't it be better to resolve the matter over there?"
"Because there's a problem over there -"
"what is the problem?"
"The postal address is...Scotland Yard!"
Ding!
Director Lawrence's heart skipped a beat.
He immediately understood something and gasped: "Are you sure?"
"Yes!"
"Call and inform the Mayor of London, members of Congress and others that I want to meet with them."
"this late---"
"hurry up!"
"yes!"
The female secretary didn't understand why Director Lawrence had such a big reaction, so she hurriedly called him.
…
"Sorry, everyone! Calling everyone over so late!"
London secret club.
Director Lawrence bowed very apologetically to the congressmen and government officials who came to the meeting.
"What happened to make us come here so late?"
A fat congressman spoke up.
"This is what happened." Director Lawrence recounted the contents of the secret letter he received.
"This Ge Bai has done too much, how can anyone get caught?"
"Yeah, it's very miserable to eat without wiping your mouth!"
These congressmen were gloating over the misfortune and did not realize the seriousness of the matter.
Lawrence smiled bitterly and said, "Then do you know who is the person who exposed Ge Bai this time?"
"Who? Who in Hong Kong is so brave?"
"Yes, tell us and let us get to know this hero!"
Everyone laughed again.
For them, Ge Bai's making money in Hong Kong makes them jealous. Now that he is unlucky, of course they are happy.
"Du Yongxiao!"
Lawrence said the name.
"What?"
The laughter stopped suddenly, and everyone looked at Lawrence.
"I said the person who reported it was Du Yongxiao!"
The club was completely silent.
Everyone was silent.
A moment——
"It's unreliable, this person is unreliable!"
"Yes, he seems to have our list too!"
"Yes, he seems to have our list too!"
"What should we do? Do we want to end it once and for all?" The fat congressman raised his hand and made a gesture of wiping his neck.
"No, no, no, Du is so shrewd and ruthless! He had already guessed that we would do this, so how could he let us succeed?"
"you mean--"
"We should never have taken his money in the first place!"
“But with that much money, if we don’t charge it, others will!”
"Damn, now we're grasshoppers on a rope!"
Everyone talked a lot, and some even yelled, cursing Du Yongxiao's eighteenth generation ancestors, calling him a despicable villain and a shameless villain.
After these big guys finished scolding and their emotions stabilized, Director Lawrence said: "The matter has come to this, we must take countermeasures. As everyone said just now, the person named Du is insidious and cunning. Since the list is in his hands, he will definitely do it He is so well prepared that he is not afraid of our revenge at all, even if we kill him it will be useless!"
"What's more -" Lawrence said, "what's more, he is Mr. Howard's savior, and not long ago he also saved the Duke of Windsor in front of everyone -"
As soon as these words came out, the scene was silent.
Everyone knows that Du Yongxiao killed the gangster Mad Dog Johnny and saved Mr. Howard's beloved daughter Michelle. At the investiture ceremony not long ago, Du Yongxiao stopped Crazy Horse with one arm and even saved the Duke of Windsor. This incident It has also been popular for a long time.
If they give Du Yongxiao something wrong, will these two bosses let them go?
"Then what are we going to do? Have we been controlled by him? Are we being blackmailed by him?"
Lawrence smiled, "Actually, things are not that bad. Don't forget, he is a Hong Konger and will eventually go back!"
A word to wake up the dreamer.
"Yes, yes! He is a Hong Konger and wants to go back to Hong Kong. When he goes back, we can sit back and relax!"
Everyone quickly figured out that as long as Du Yongxiao did not stay in the UK, he could not threaten them.
"Then why you invited us here tonight--"
The fat congressman and others looked at Lawrence together.
Lawrence sighed, "Isn't it a matter of his position back in Hong Kong?"
No one at the scene was a fool. Someone immediately asked: "Does he want to be the chief superintendent?"
Lawrence nodded, "That's right."
Everyone fell silent.
Du Yongxiao's move was too cruel. He sent an anonymous letter here to report the Chief Superintendent Ge Bai in Hong Kong. The evidence was conclusive. If it came out, Ge Bai would be dead.
What's even more cruel is that Du Yongxiao didn't hide it at all. The mailing address was Scotland Yard. Wasn't this telling everyone that he reported this anonymous letter?
This is the threat of Chi Guoguo!
"He's forcing us to make a decision!"
"Yeah, let's kick Ge Bai out and let him come on stage!"
"what should we do?"
These powerful British political bosses look at me and I look at you, and they all have no idea.
Lawrence knew that it was not that these big guys had no ideas, but that they were all pretending to be stupid.
He sighed and said: "The plan for now is to contact Ge Bai, ask him to resign voluntarily, leave Hong Kong and return to the UK, and then appoint Du Yongxiao as the new chief superintendent!"
"Will Ge Bai agree?"
"Yes, he is so happy and carefree in Hong Kong, will he agree to come back?"
"Even if I don't agree," Lawrence took out the anonymous message, "I will send this letter to him. If he doesn't come back, the letter will explode!"
Lawrence looked sinister at this moment.
Everyone shuddered, imagining in their minds the scene where Ge Bai was forced to resign and return to his hometown.
"Now that you've made the decision, it's up to you!"
"Yes, you have a good relationship with Ge Bai anyway, so we won't get involved!"
These big guys are all well-known old foxes in politics, and they understand what it means to "protect oneself wisely".
Lawrence called them over this time. He had already guessed this outcome and did not force them to follow suit. "In this case, I will be responsible for this matter! As for you-"
"What are we going to do?"
"Yeah, we need to do something at least!"
Lawrence looked at the group of hypocritical bosses and said with a smile: "What you have to do is very simple, which is to jointly submit a letter recommending To Yongxiao as the Chief Superintendent of Hong Kong! As you also know, Shangfeng is very sensitive to appointing Chinese as high-level police officers. , let alone the Chief Superintendent with real power?”
"Understood!" Everyone nodded, "This Du Yongxiao is prosperous!"
