The surrounding British gentlemen also looked at this arrogant guy in bewilderment, somewhat confused about Fang Lang's thinking.
The leading police officer's face instantly turned ugly, and he said to Fang Lang in a serious tone:
"Sir, I think you have misunderstood something. I am not discussing with you, but informing you. If you are unwilling to cooperate with my work, I may have to take coercive measures against you."
Fang Lang didn't want to continue wasting time with the other party here. After all, the performance inside was about to start, and Audrey Hepburn might be sad because she couldn't see him by then!
Just when he was about to ask his men to communicate with the police, the old white man who had just been pulled to the ground by driver Jason suddenly shouted to the police:
"Mr. Police, be careful! They have guns on them."
The police, who originally thought it was just a simple fight, never expected that they would suddenly hear someone carrying a lethal weapon. The ten police officers reflexively reached for the holsters on their waists.
The leading police sergeant pointed at the two men with his left hand and put his right hand on the holster, and said to them:
"Now I suspect that you two are carrying lethal weapons. Please raise your hands so that I can see the position of your palms."
After hearing the sergeant's words, neither Fang Lang nor the driver Jason moved, but still stood there with calm faces.
Fang Lang even looked disdainfully at the old white man who stood up with the help of the lady. Then he turned to look at the police chief and said:
"I'm a soldier and you ask me to raise my hands, do you know what that means?"
At this moment, the Sheriff's nerves are in a state of high tension. The management of guns in the UK is very strict. Let's talk about banning guns! They can also submit an application to become legally permitted to use a shotgun.
Let’s just say guns are not allowed! Citizens are not allowed to possess any pistols, automatic rifles or machine guns.
Now someone told the police chief that the two people in front of him had firearms on them. Judging from the situation, it was known that the other person was definitely not holding a shotgun, but a pistol that was expressly prohibited from private possession.
It was difficult for him not to be nervous in this situation.
"I don't care what your identity is. This is London. The law clearly stipulates that no one is allowed to possess firearms. As a London police officer, I have the right to investigate every target I suspect. Now please cooperate with me." Work."
Fang Lang was not an unreasonable person. He also knew that the police had their own responsibilities. Moreover, the police chief did not show any discrimination against him. He was just led by the British gentlemen at the scene to treat himself as a criminal. Just a suspect.
Therefore, he had no dissatisfaction with the police chief in front of him. But he really didn't want to continue to entangle with the other party here and waste time.
"Then I will arrange for someone to cooperate with your investigation! The performance is about to start, please give way."
After saying that, he was about to walk to the opera house. This action made all the policemen reflexively want to draw their guns, but what happened next surprised everyone at the scene.
I don’t know since when, some strong men in black suits appeared next to the police. Just when the police were about to draw their guns, these people suddenly took action at the same time and pressed down on the right hands of the police who were trying to draw their guns.
When their movements stalled, everyone's first reaction was that something bad was going on and someone was trying to grab a gun, but these people just controlled their movements of taking out guns and stopped moving.
The young Asian man who held down the police chief's arm said in a calm tone:
"Officer, please don't disturb my boss's good mood watching the show. If there is anything we need to cooperate with, just tell me directly."
Hearing this, the sergeant swallowed hard and unconsciously looked at the colleagues behind him. He found that there was a young man standing next to almost everyone, and he still didn't understand what was going on.
The British gentlemen who had been standing around watching the excitement were also shocked by this sudden change. Many smart people have understood something. How can a character with so many bodyguards around him be a simple character.
It looks like someone kicked the iron plate now.
The old white man was even more shocked. He was just a declining British aristocrat, relying on the legacy of his ancestors to make a living in the British upper class. The reason why he took the initiative to jump out was to increase his presence in front of his mistress.
At the same time, seeing Fang Lang's skin color gave him a natural sense of superiority, and he couldn't help but stand up and accuse others from the moral high ground.
But now it seems that he has met someone extraordinary, so his first reaction is to sneak away secretly to avoid being resented by the other party.
But when he pulled the female companion beside him and wanted to retreat, he found someone behind him blocking his way. When he looked up, he saw two young people looking at him with cold expressions. His heart skipped a beat. My legs feel a little weak.
Knowing that he was being targeted, it was impossible to escape quietly. He couldn't help but show a smile uglier than crying to the young man behind him, and stood there obediently.
Most of the surrounding British nobles were smart people. They understood what was going on, so they quietly turned around and stayed away from this place of right and wrong to avoid being involved in unnecessary trouble and bringing bad influence to themselves or their family.
When Fang Lang saw the crowd gradually beginning to disperse, a smile appeared on his lips. He smiled at the livid police chief and waved his hand, signaling everyone to let go of the police.
“Officer, you can ask the injured man on the ground what happened after he wakes up, or you can ask my driver Mr. Jason.
If you think it is necessary for me to come forward in person to cooperate with your investigation, I can also take my lawyer to your police station to report tomorrow morning.
However, I am sorry that I cannot accompany you now, because this performance is very important to me, and I hope you can understand. "
After speaking, he turned to Qi Qingshan who was beside the police chief and said:
"You come forward and talk to the police officer to see if there is anything we need to cooperate with. If there is anything that cannot be solved, I will talk about it after watching the show."
Upon hearing this, Qi Qingshan stood at attention and saluted:
"Yes, boss!"
Fang Lang nodded, straightened his clothes, and strode directly to the opera house without looking back. When the surrounding British gentlemen saw this, they consciously gave way. At this moment, Fang Lang has become a well-deserved protagonist, and everyone must avoid his edge.
Seeing Fang Lang disappear at the door of the opera house, Qi Qingshan turned to look at the police chief beside him and said:
"This police officer, I am the adjutant of General Fang Lang, the commander of the Brazilian aircraft carrier battle group in Rio de Janeiro. On behalf of our Brazilian navy, I am protesting to your government about the incident in which our commander was racially profiled at the entrance of the Royal Opera House just now.
We will send a note to your government through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of our country, and will also express our protest to Mr. Henderson, Chief of Staff of the Royal Navy, who invited us to the UK for inspection.
We will reserve the right to pursue criminal responsibility against the British citizen on the ground who discriminated against and attacked our commander. "
As early as when a group of bodyguards came forward, the police chief knew that he was in big trouble today, but he didn't expect it to be so troublesome. Although Brazil is not a world power, the impact of this incident is very bad.
Once word spreads and the international community knows about it, the entire UK will lose face.
More importantly, the person who invited the Brazilian general to come to the UK was General Henderson, the Chief of Staff of the Royal Navy. In a sea-power country like the United Kingdom, the navy's status is very high.
Because the racist remarks made by an unknown British citizen affected the Chief of Staff of the Royal Navy, the police chief could not imagine how serious the consequences of this matter would be.
The police sergeant, who was feeling chills all over, looked around and found that the scene of the discovery, which had been surrounded by water just now, seemed to have been emptied out in an instant. Even the strong men in black suits standing next to his colleagues had disappeared.
It seemed as if everything here just now was an absurd dream.
But the short, fat old white man with a bloodless face next to him, the British lady who was supporting the old white man with a blank expression, and the instigator lying on the ground still unconscious, were really reminded. The truth of his matter.
After swallowing with some difficulty, the sergeant suppressed the panic in his heart, held on to the back of his empire, and said in as calm a tone as possible:
"Mr. Adjutant, I think there must be some misunderstanding here. Our London Police Department will also investigate the matter in detail. If the matter is as you said, I think we will give you and your commander a clear explanation. reply."
As for the incident of Fang Lang and his bodyguards beating citizens of the British Empire, the police officer had automatically ignored it. Not that the officer wanted to embarrass Britain.
The diplomatic incident was really beyond his scope. Now he could only report the matter as soon as possible and leave it to the superiors.
Otherwise, you might get implicated.
As for whether the British government would offend dignitaries from other countries who were invited to visit him because of a Royal Opera House doorman who made racist remarks, he knew that this was impossible without even thinking about it.
Fang Lang glanced coldly at the several British police officers and the three British citizens who were still there, and said in a serious tone:
"We will cooperate with your investigation in accordance with the order of the Commander. Our Commander has just said that if necessary, he will bring a lawyer to the London Police Station to explain the situation in person tomorrow.
I would like to remind you that the Commander has an appointment with the Chief of Naval Staff of your country tomorrow. If things develop to this point, I think everyone will be very ugly.
Therefore, I suggest that you come up with a solution overnight. "
Hearing this, the police chief immediately understood the other party's implication, nodded to Qi Qingshan and said:
"Please rest assured that we will investigate the truth of the matter as soon as possible."
After saying that, he waved to the police behind him and motioned for everyone to come forward and take away the unconscious British citizen on the ground and the old white man who was still standing shivering for investigation.
As the other party involved in the incident, the driver Jason stepped forward without hesitation and prepared to follow the police.
Qi Qingshan patted Jason on the shoulder and said:
"We followed them to the London police station in our own car."
In this regard, the police did not dare to express any objection and could only watch a few men in black suits boarding a brand new off-road vehicle parked on the roadside.
After everyone left, some people appeared at the entrance and around the Royal Opera House, pointing at the cars and the Opera House going away, and discussing what had just happened here.
But these have nothing to do with Fang Lang. After entering the opera house, Fang Lang followed the instructions on the ticket and found his role. Within five minutes of sitting down, the performance officially started.
Fang Lang's ticket was an internal ticket brought by Audrey Hepburn. The location was not very good. It was in the middle of the hall on the first floor. It seemed that most of the audience around him were parents of students.
I don't know if anyone outside has seen what just happened. Of course, if so, Fang Lang won't care. What Fang Lang wants to know is whether Audrey Hepburn can see him from where he is sitting. .
After the performance officially started, the lights in the entire hall were turned off, and only the stage was illuminated transparently. Looking at the dark environment, Fang Lang felt that Audrey Hepburn should not be able to see him.
If I had known earlier, I should have paid for the ticket and sat in the front row. Not only could I cheer for the other party, but I could also let the other party see me clearly, so that my trip would not be in vain.
But soon he felt lucky that he didn't sit in the front row, because he couldn't understand the ballet at all, and he felt like going to the toilet after watching it for less than twenty minutes.
If standing up suddenly might not attract people's attention and Audrey Hepburn find out, he would have gone to find a place to smoke.
The entire ballet performance lasted a full two hours. Fang Lang was woken up by the sudden warm applause. Just when he was still a little dazed, the dazzling lights in the hall were lit up, and he suddenly woke up and understood that it was supposed to be a performance. it's over.
Looking up towards the stage, I saw the actors on the stage taking their curtain call. The tall Audrey Hepburn looked particularly eye-catching, and she didn't know if the other party could see her. Fang Lang still stood up very hypocritically, applauded vigorously, and cheered loudly.
This made the two spectators sitting next to him involuntarily start looking at him with strange eyes. After all, they knew very well that this man had been drowsy the entire time.
He didn't care about this, he still cheered loudly and hypocritically, and in the end he didn't forget to wave his arms vigorously towards the stage. Because he noticed that Audrey Hepburn's eyes had been looking here. After seeing Fang Lang's movements, the little girl showed a sweet smile.
This made Fang Lang let out a long sigh of relief. This couldn't be entirely Fang Lang's fault. After all, he had never been exposed to ballet in two lifetimes. He even had no idea what the specific content of this dance drama was.
In order not to expose himself later, Fang Lang lowered his voice and asked a middle-aged white man next to him about the content of today's dance drama. The middle-aged white man looked at Fang Lang with contempt before telling Fang Lang about today's performance.
When he learned that today's repertoire was the eternal classic "Swan Lake" in ballet, Fang Lang let out a long sigh of relief and asked the other party for some details. Fang Lang nodded solemnly to the other party.
