In the current situation, the two of them had no better solution for a while, so they could only take it one step at a time.
Nottingham Jones turned his head and glanced at the scene in the distance, gritted his teeth and said:
“It’s no use worrying about this now, we’d better go there quickly to see the specific situation, and then we’ll see if there are any other solutions.
Now we have delayed for too long, which may cause the other party to be dissatisfied, so we should hurry up and get over it! "
Hearing this, Yao Mu could only nod his head bravely. Now he simply hates these guys from the 14K. Why didn't they take action earlier and later? Why did they do it when there were big shots present? Don't you want to kill him?
Nottingham Jones did not wait for Yao Mu's reaction, and directly ordered his men to gather people and enter the scene to take over the gang members.
He nodded to Yao Mu and Zeng John and said:
"You two come with me right now and explain to each other!"
After finishing speaking, he straightened his police uniform, straightened his police hat, and then strode directly in the direction of Fang Lang. He knew very well in his heart that the matter had reached this point, and he wanted to avoid the affirmation. It's impossible. We can only bite the bullet and go up to see the situation.
Seeing this, John Zeng glanced at Yao Mu. When he saw Yao Mu nodded to him, he quickly followed him and walked to Nottingham Jones to help guide the way.
Yao Mu also dusted himself off, turned around and whispered a few instructions to the two plainclothes Chinese policemen behind him, and then took two quick steps to follow them.
Under the command of the chief, a group of policemen quickly came out of hiding, put their guns back into their gun bags, and walked towards the scene in an orderly manner.
Fang Lang's guards saw the policeman who had just left walking over with two people, and soon two people stepped forward to block their way.
John Zeng was also in a daze for a moment. Couldn't everything just be passed? Why doesn't it work now?
The other person spoke in Portuguese again, and none of the three of them understood it. However, the other party's actions were still very obvious. Yao Mu, an old Jianghu, was the first to react and said quickly:
"They asked us to hand over our guns, right?"
After saying that, he looked at Nottingham Jones, wanting to hear his opinion. Upon seeing this, Nottingham Jones only pondered for a moment and then said directly:
"give them!"
It’s no wonder that Nottingham Jones couldn’t react. As a Hong Kong police officer, except for being asked to hand over a gun when he met with senior police officers and the Governor, he had never experienced a situation where he had to hand over a gun. He couldn’t turn around for a while. .
However, now he is in his own jurisdiction and is asked by foreigners to hand over his gun. To be honest, he feels a little aggrieved, but who knows that he is now in big trouble! If he didn't understand current affairs at this time, things might become out of control, so he had to bow his head.
After receiving the officer's order, Yao Mu obediently began to take off his gun bag.
At this time, he didn't dare to reach out and pull out the gun directly. Although it was also a handover, if he pulled out the gun so carelessly, the soldiers on the opposite side might shoot him directly.
Looking at the guy lying on the ground not far away with his head shot, he knew that these people were not easy to mess with.
The guards nodded with satisfaction when they saw the two men's sensible actions. They took the gun bags they had taken off from their hands and stretched out their hands behind them, indicating that they could enter.
After receiving permission, they quickly crossed the blockade formed by a group of guards and approached the dining table where Fang Lang and others were sitting.
Seeing several people approaching, Fang Lang and Reinhardt did not stand up. Fang Lang looked calm and looked at the three people who came over with interest. Of course, the one who interested him the most was the one in plainclothes and older. A big Chinese policeman with gray hair.
If what he expected was correct, this should be the Chief Inspector Yao Mu that Cai Jiabing had told him before.
However, he had never heard of Inspector Zonghua named Yao Mu. He had only heard of the names of the four detectives. Now it seems that Yao Mu should have become famous earlier than the four detectives. !
It's just that like Lu Le, he didn't come up with a way to integrate the entire underworld and collect fees uniformly, so he failed to become a figure like Lu Le who left his name in history.
While Fang Lang was observing Yao Mu, Reinhardt on the other side was looking at Nottingham Jones with an ugly expression. Seeing the awkward look on the other party's face, he said angrily:
"Are you the commander-in-chief of this operation?"
Hearing this young man who looked very arrogant speaking to him, Nottingham Jones knew that this person was the British Navy Lieutenant Colonel that John Zeng mentioned.
Being able to become a lieutenant colonel in the navy at this age shows that this young man either has super abilities or has a deep connection background.
Based on his own experience, Nottingham Jones could tell from the temperament of the other party that he was a young and arrogant British aristocratic child, and the aristocratic child's current achievements must be due to the other party's deep relationship background.
Coming to such a conclusion, instead of making him feel relaxed, he felt even more gloomy.
Because such a noble child obviously cannot be dismissed easily. It gave him a headache. When he heard the other party's question, he could only obediently salute with a military salute and said:
"Yes, Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, I am Superintendent Nottingham Jones of the Central Police Station, and I am responsible for handling this case.
I am very sorry that our police failed to arrive at the scene in time to protect the safety of you and the foreign guests. After the incident is over, I will submit a complete report to my superior and accept the punishment from my superiors. "
Nottingham Jones's attitude was very low, and he bowed his head and admitted his mistake without even carefully checking Reinhardt's identity.
When Reinhardt heard what he said, instead of forgiving him, he immediately became furious and cursed directly:
"You bastard, did you just not arrive at the scene in time? I think you are colluding with the police and robbers. You are derelict in your duties. Just wait, I will personally complain to Mr. Governor."
Hearing Reinhardt directly point out that they were colluding with police and gangsters, the expressions of the three police officers suddenly changed, and their hearts sank to the bottom of their hearts.
Chief Inspector Yao Mu, who was hiding behind Nottingham Jones, kept his eyes fixed on Cai Jiabing. He was naturally quite familiar with this 14K red stick. From the current situation, this The guy nicknamed Huizui Bing is obviously not as strong as his appearance suggests.
I must have been completely sold by the other party.
Fang Lang sat nearby and watched all this with a smile. When he saw Reinhardt getting angry, he smiled and patted the other party on the shoulder.
"Don't be angry, Reinhardt, just understand! Police work is different than when you work in the military, it's not black and white.
The police sometimes have to deal with some gang members, but the police are the police and the gangs are gangs. How can we say that they collude with the gangs?
It's serious, it's serious. "
Fang Lang's tone was calm, his gestures were gentle, and he naturally had a calm temperament when speaking, which made Reinhardt very uncomfortable for a while.
He knew that the other party was trying to comfort him, but the performance of the Hong Kong police today was beyond his understanding, and the evil fire in his heart had nowhere to go.
Therefore, he did not lose his temper so easily. Instead, he glared at Superintendent Nottingham Jones and said:
"They let the gangs fight like this, but they don't call the police and the robbers colluding? What do you call the police and the robbers colluding!"
Nottingham Jones and Yao Mu looked at Fang Lang in surprise. They did not expect that this young Chinese man would help them exonerate, which made both of them feel grateful.
Of course Fang Lang could feel the look in their eyes. He glanced at them, gave them a reassuring look, then turned to look at Reinhardt again and said:
"Okay, okay, I know you're angry! You feel like you've lost face in front of me. But don't forget, we are good brothers. Will I take this little thing to heart?
Moreover, we'd better not make a big deal out of this kind of thing. When it becomes known to the whole city, not only the Hong Kong police will be unable to step down, but even Governor Granthhorn will feel that his face is shameful. It is really unnecessary.
At today's dinner, I had just made an appointment with the Commissioner of Police, Mr. MacKingto, to have tea together. I turned around and grabbed his braid and held on. This was really inappropriate.
By then, our company will feel embarrassed if it wants to invest and do business in Hong Kong City. "
For Fang Lang, the gang fight they encountered this time actually had no impact on him. Even if he catches him and makes things worse, it won't change the situation where gangs will be rampant for a long time to come.
It is better to take advantage of this opportunity to maximize your own interests.
Besides, it is impossible for Reinhardt to really know nothing about the situation of the Hong Kong police. Even in his hometown in the UK, gangs still exist. This kind of thing is an inevitable product of capitalist society and does not exist at all. may be completely eradicated.
The reason why he was so angry was probably because he felt a little embarrassed. If he really held on to this matter, I believe he would definitely make this matter bigger, and the Hong Kong City Government would definitely come out to rectify it. The police and local gangs.
But what's the point? After a while, everything will not be business as usual. Not only will you not get any benefits, you may also offend many people at the same time. This kind of thankless thing is really not something a wise person would do.
Therefore, he might as well take the initiative to excuse the Hong Kong police. Then the black and white parties, the Hong Kong government, and even Reinhardt will thank him.
Sure enough, as soon as he said this, Reinhardt's face looked much better.
Nottingham Jones and Yao Mu quietly exchanged glances, looking at Fang Lang even more eagerly.
When Yao Mu heard that Fang Lang's family was going to invest and do business in Hong Kong City, his eyes lit up. Such a big Chinese man, no matter where he is from, can chat, laugh and drink tea with figures like the Governor of Hong Kong and the Commissioner of Police. They are all big shots that he must find a way to curry favor with.
Reinhardt was obviously a smart man. After hearing what Fang Lang said, he understood what he meant. He wanted these local snakes to accept his favor, so as to pave the way for their company's future development in the port city.
In his opinion, if they want to come to Hong Kong to invest in their status, if they encounter problems, they can just go to the Governor of Hong Kong and the Commissioner of Police.
There is no need to care about the attitude of these small characters. Their superiors have spoken. Do they still dare to object?
But now that Fang Lang has said this, it means that Fang Lang has his own plans, and Reinhardt still respects his friend very much. After just thinking for a moment, he looked Fang Lang up and down with a serious look.
"Fang, are you serious? These guys have committed such unforgivable crimes, and you just expose them so gently. Isn't it too easy for them?"
Hearing this, Fang Lang glanced at Reinhardt in surprise. He didn't expect that this aristocratic boy who had always seemed a bit arrogant in his impression not only understood his intention, but also immediately sent an assist.
Although this kind of talking about benefits sounds obviously very childish, several people at the scene are veterans, if you still don't understand what he means at this time.
Then you really are not qualified to stay in your current position.
