Yao Mu reminded Nottingham Jones not to forget his promise both inside and outside his words. Of course the other party can understand what the other party means.
At the same time, he was also a little surprised by Yao Mu's generosity. You must know that the Criminal Investigation Division is a key department under the General Administration, and it is also the cornerstone of his power as the chief detective. Currently, in the Hong Kong City Police Department, only the Chinese police officers in their Criminal Investigation Division have the right to carry guns.
No matter where you are, only those who hold the barrel of a gun can speak forcefully, and only then will people listen and dare not disobey. This is the reason why he can use this identity to command all Chinese police in Hong Kong.
Now hearing what he meant, he was actually planning to hand over the most powerful department in his hands to this young man. How could this not surprise him?
If this is the case, John Zeng, a young man, will soon soar into the sky. Because, at this time, the British Hong Kong government's promotion of Chinese police officers is very blocked. An old policeman like Yao Mu, who has served the police force for nearly thirty years, can only be held as a chief Chinese detective.
The position of Inspector Zonghua sounds prestigious, but in reality the police title is just that of a police sergeant, and does not even enter the basic management of the Hong Kong City Police Force.
The reason why he is so majestic is not because they are the highest-ranking people in the entire Chinese police force, but because the Criminal Investigation Division under his leadership has the power to call on all the grassroots police officers in Hong Kong to coordinate operations.
Having guns in their hands and being able to recruit all the Chinese police in Hong Kong to obey their orders is the source of their power. However, in fact, their police ranks are not even the lowest basic management police rank, the inspector level.
According to the ranks of the Hong Kong police, Inspector Zonghua's rank is just a police sergeant who can supervise ordinary police officers, senior police officers, and sergeants. According to the military rank comparison of the US Army, he is equivalent to a sergeant major. Not even the most basic second lieutenant officer.
Therefore, after watching Money Empire, many people don't quite understand what the police rank of Inspector Zonghua is, and they think that Lei Luo has such great power because of his high position. Actually, this is not the case.
Originally, Nottingham Jones promised to upgrade the police officers who came forward by two levels. He made this promise to the British police officers. Most of the Chinese police officers could not understand it, so they naturally let it go. However, John Zeng was proficient in English. Seized the opportunity.
If John Tsang can really be promoted to two police ranks at once, he can be directly promoted from senior police officer to police sergeant. Such a police rank in the current Hong Kong City Police Force is the position of Chief Inspector.
That is to say, he has the same status as Yao Mu, and Yao Mu is already fifty-four years old and is about to retire. But John Zeng can tell at a glance that he is young. He is probably only twenty-five or six years old at most. He can obtain such a police rank at such a young age. , the future potential will be unlimited.
Of course, this also depends on whether the future Hong Kong police force is willing to give Chinese police officers the opportunity to break through the police ranks.
No matter what others think of John Zeng, in the eyes of Nottingham Jones, he is a Hong Kong policeman who has the courage to do his job. Moreover, he must make the promise he made come true, which was related to his face and future as a dignified police superintendent.
Therefore, he just thought for a moment, then took a deep look at Yao Mu and said:
"Since you said you are willing to train him to be the new head of the Criminal Investigation Division, I will definitely keep my promise and personally write a letter of recommendation for him so that he can become the next chief of the Chinese police station."
In this way, the two of them unknowingly promoted each other and decided to quickly promote the brave police officer John Zeng.
On the other side, John Zeng slowly walked towards the scene of the conflict in Stanley Street with his hands raised. Looking at a group of well-equipped militants, it was impossible to say that John Zeng was not nervous and scared.
But this incident is undoubtedly a rare opportunity for him. Therefore, no matter how scared he was and how weak his legs and feet were, he had to walk up bravely.
As a police officer who has received training from the Hong Kong police, he has quite good military qualities. Just taking two steps closer, he discovered the difference between these armed men.
The gun-holding postures and positions of these people showed that they were professional soldiers with excellent military qualities. At this time, he also understood why Nordin
Han Jones did not dare to step forward easily.
In particular, the weapons used by the opponent were brand-new weapons and equipment that none of them had ever seen before, which showed that these people were not just ordinary people.
Even as he approached the scene of the incident little by little, he felt a sense of crisis coming over him, making him feel like the hairs on his head were standing on his head. This made him understand that apart from the armed men at the scene, there was no one in the dark. There must be many gunmen aiming their guns at him.
Although John Zeng walked slowly, he also walked resolutely. He knew that now that he was out, he would not be able to turn around and run away because of danger. In this way, he would not only lose this rare opportunity, but might also be caught in the dark. The gunman directly shot him with a black gun.
Judging from the fact that there was no movement from the other party after he had been gone for so long, the other party would not do anything to the police. After all, this is a port city. If these people want to leave safely, they cannot attack him directly as a police officer.
As he approached the scene, carefully observed the situation, and collected information on the scene, a young man in a black suit walked out slowly from the opposite side. To his surprise, the man turned out to be a Chinese face.
Before he could say anything, the other party had already spoken first, and there was no hostility in his tone, as if he had met someone asking for directions on the street.
"Hey! Are you a Hong Kong police officer?"
The other person spoke not Cantonese, but Mandarin. John Zeng took a closer look at the other party under the dim street light. He had a tall and straight figure, a very decent black suit, and a black woolen gentleman's hat on his head. He should be about the same age as him.
The whole person vaguely revealed a neat military temperament, and then looked at the ghost old man around him. For a moment, John Zeng couldn't be sure of the other party's situation, so he could only say quickly:
"Yes, I am here to negotiate with you on behalf of the Hong Kong City Police. If you have any needs, you can tell me. Please do not use prohibited weapons within Hong Kong City and cause bloodshed."
Hearing this, the young man opposite burst out laughing, waved his hands casually and said:
"Okay, put your hands down! You are not my enemy, you don't need to surrender to me. Come with me!"
After saying that, he ignored John Zeng's reaction and turned around and walked inside. This time, John Zeng will be punished directly. What do you mean? Not an enemy?
However, even a normal person would not like to surrender easily. Therefore, he obediently put down his hands, glanced at the surrounding armed men who were somewhat indifferent to his arrival, gritted his teeth, took two quick steps, and kept up with the other party's footsteps.
At this time, Fang Lang was looking at Reinhardt beside him with a smile on his face, and said with a half-smile:
"Who do you think the person coming over will be?"
On the side, Earnhardt looked at the thin figure slowly approaching with his hands raised. Although he couldn't see the other person's appearance clearly, he was sure that the person coming over was definitely not an important person, nor was he someone. British.
This dealt a serious blow to his proud self-esteem, which he thought the British were very brave. Without even looking at Fang Lang, who was obviously teasing, he said angrily:
"I don't want to guess!"
Fang Lang laughed loudly when he heard this, patted Earnhardt on the shoulder and said:
"Haha... Come on Earnhardt, I didn't expect you to be smarter now! You didn't even get fooled."
When Earnhardt heard this, he glared at Fang Lang with slight annoyance and said:
"Fang, this joke is not funny at all."
Fang Lang didn't care whether he was really angry or fake, he turned to Cai Jiabing who was standing opposite and said:
"Do you know this person who came here?"
At this time, Cai Jiabing, who had been treated docilely by Fang Lang, did not dare to hesitate. He quickly turned his head and looked at the young police officer who was slowly coming behind Qi Qingshan.
After a long while, he shook his head and said:
"Sir, I don't know this policeman, but judging from his appearance, he should be an ordinary uniformed patrol officer."
Fang Lang watched with interest the young police officer who was approaching behind Qi Qingshan, and continued to tease Lienhardt:
"It's Hong Kong
The city police force is too timid, but the police captain’s official arrogance is too great! Just send a uniformed patrol officer over? "
Upon hearing this, Earnhardt, whose face was already ugly, became even more gloomy. However, he ignored Fang Lang's words and just stared at the young police officer who was slowly approaching without saying a word.
The smile on Fang Lang's face flashed away when he saw this, and he seemed to be asking for trouble, and shrugged indifferently.
At this time, Qi Qingshan had brought John Zeng to several people. This time, John Zeng did not wait for anyone to speak, and he took the lead in speaking in English:
"Gentlemen, I am Senior Constable John Tsang of the Central Police Station, here to investigate the shooting incident that just occurred on Stanley Street.
I wonder if some of you can tell me what happened here, who are you, and why are you armed with weapons and hurting people in Hong Kong City. "
It must be said that John Zeng relaxed after learning that no one present was hostile. Even when facing several guys who looked like big shots, he acted neither humble nor overbearing.
This made Fang Lang couldn't help but look at him twice, while Reinhardt on the side stared at the police title on the other man's shoulder, gritted his teeth, and said in a stiff tone:
"Are you the leader of this operation?"
John Zeng also did not expect that the other party, who did not seem to be hostile, would actually have a high-status ghost old man. Instead of answering his question, he asked him a question back to him unceremoniously.
From the other party's tone, he could feel the deep dissatisfaction, and more importantly, he found that this dissatisfaction seemed to be the superior's dissatisfaction with the subordinates. This made him very confused and at the same time wary. I couldn't help but take a closer look at the talkative old man, and quietly tried in a slightly tough tone:
"No. But I am a Hong Kong police officer, and I think I have the right to investigate you. Gentlemen, please tell me your identities truthfully."
Earnhardt, who had an arrogant personality, was very angry at the moment. When he saw the police, they sent a young uniformed patrolman wearing the rank of a senior police officer to come out and ask for his identity. He suddenly felt that he had been insulted like never before and couldn't help but want to Get angry directly.
Fang Lang had been dating him for a long time, so he naturally knew that this guy's arrogant personality was showing up again, so he couldn't help but patted him on the shoulder and said:
"Why are you so angry with a senior police officer? This young man dares to run directly in front of you with his bare hands and ask you for your identity without being humble or condescending. This shows his courage.
You should be happy that there are such responsible police officers in Hong Kong City, rather than blaming the other party. The ones who should really be blamed are the senior police officers who were hiding behind cars and did not dare to show their faces. "
[In view of the general environment,
After saying that, he ignored Earnhardt who looked ugly, smiled at John Zeng and said:
"Young man, you are very brave! You dared to walk directly into the middle of our group of heavily armed soldiers with your bare hands.
Don't be afraid that we are armed bandits, we will attack you directly! "
John Zeng did not expect that this young Chinese would directly interrupt the old ghost who seemed to have an unusual identity. Although the other party was still very angry, he naturally restrained himself and did not get angry at the young man.
Obviously, this young man's identity is not simple either.
At the same time, this young man's attitude and tone of voice are also very thought-provoking. At this moment, if he didn't understand that these people were not armed bandits at all, he would not be qualified to be a policeman.
