Chapter 534: The Attitude of the London Police

Fang Lang, who followed the flow of people and slowly walked out of the Royal Opera House, saw several cars parked on the side of the road outside the opera house at a glance, and a policeman who seemed to be of good status was standing beside Qi Qingshan, talking to the other party.

But Qi Qingshan just nodded politely, and didn't seem to have the intention of chatting with the other party more.

Seeing this, Fang Lang still didn't understand what the situation was, it seemed that the efficiency of the British police seemed to be higher than he imagined!

What Fang Lang didn't know was that the chief inspector of the London Police Department was also scolded and scolded from home.

It turned out that when Fang Lang was drowsy at the Royal Opera House, the Chief of Staff of the Navy, Fett Henderson, received a report from his subordinates and knew what had just happened at the gate of the Royal Opera House.

Originally, according to diplomatic etiquette, he should have sent a representative of the British side to accompany Fang Lang throughout his trip in the UK, but because of the special relationship between the two families, and Fang Lang himself also brought enough guards.

General Henderson didn't want Fang Lang to misunderstand that he was trying to monitor his whereabouts, so he didn't arrange an escort. But that doesn't mean he's completely left alone.

So, he arranged a group of special agents to follow Fang Lang 24 hours a day, and he didn't care what the other party did or who he saw, he just needed to ensure Fang Lang's safety.

As a result, they did not expect that the next day, the guests they invited were discriminated against by a small doorman at the door of the Royal Opera House.

Isn't this a proper slap in the face of the Chief of Staff of the Navy?

So, without hesitation, Admiral Henderson made a phone call to the home of the London Police Chief and expressed his opinion on the matter in a stern tone.

The British police have a decentralized system, and each county has its own police station, and the chief of these police stations has very much power. Their next level is directly the British Home Secretary, but this is only in name.

In fact, the British police owe only allegiance to the Queen of England, so the power of the London police chief is very large, and General Henderson did not call the Home Secretary, but directly to the police chief.

Of course, the chief of police should pay enough attention to the attitude of the chief of staff of the Navy, so he made a phone call to the home of the chief of the Western District of the London Police.

Next, the head of the Western District sent his most suitable right-hand man, Chief Inspector Lugo Perrin, to personally express the attitude of the London Metropolitan Police to the person concerned.

And the middle-aged white policeman who Fang Lang saw now, who looked to be less than forty years old, tall and thin, with a hooked nose, was Chief Inspector Lugo Perrin.

When he saw the only yellow man in a suit and leather shoes who came out of the opera house, he knew that this was the target he was waiting for, and without waiting for Qi Qingshan next to him to react, he walked up quickly.

"Hello, General Fang! Welcome to London, my name is Lugo Palin! I'm a Chief Inspector of the West End Police of the London Police Department, and I'm sorry for the bad experience you had with what happened at the door of the Royal Opera House today.

Please rest assured that we will take a serious case against any British citizen involved and give you a satisfactory outcome. ”

As soon as Chief Inspector Lugo Perrin spoke, Fang Lang was taken aback, because the other party spoke not English, but Cantonese. Although Fang Lang is not very proficient in Cantonese, he has watched so many Hong Kong films and listened to so many Cantonese songs in later generations.

Even Meng Chaichai, who probably understood the meaning of the other party's expression.

He never imagined that the British would arrange for him to be a chief inspector who could fluently use Cantonese to communicate with him, which showed that the British police department was still more attentive.

Originally, Fang Lang was very annoyed by being discriminated against this time, but he had already taught the other party a hard lesson, and he didn't want to continue to dwell on this matter. But now seeing this British policeman with a hooked nose, Fang Lang is a little interested.

Looking up and down with a smile on his face, the chief inspector named Lugo Perrin said with interest:

"Officer Lugo Perrin speaks Cantonese very well, did he live in Hong Kong?"

British, can speak Cantonese, Fang Lang's first reaction was that this guy was from Hong Kong.

The facts are indeed as Fang Lang expected, after hearing Fang Lang's question, Lugo Perrin also smiled and said:

"Yes, General Fang, I served in the Hong Kong garrison for four years, and then stayed there for two years, and it was during this time that I learned Cantonese."

Hearing this, Fang Lang couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and became more interested in the police officer in front of him.

"Then why didn't you stay in Hong Kong! As far as I know, the police in Hong Kong are very profitable! ”

In fact, it is not only the police in Hong Kong who make money, but the law enforcement agencies of almost every British colony are very profitable, compared to the colonies that are far away from the mountains and emperors under the noses of all the big people in London, they are simply hotbeds of corruption.

Fang Lang's directness was obviously a little beyond Lugo Perrin's expectations, for a while, he didn't know how to answer the other party's question, could it be that he didn't love money? In the end, he could only smile bitterly and said:

"My family is in the UK, and I can't leave my family and live in Hong Kong alone."

After all, when I met the other party for the first time, I didn't know much about others, so I could only chat a few words.

Although a thought flashed in his heart, he still didn't understand the essentials for a while, so he didn't say anything, nodded with a smile and stretched out his right hand to the other party and said:

"Nice to meet you, Officer Rugo Perrin!"

Seeing that the Brazilian general was finally willing to shake hands with him, Lugo Perrin looked very happy, and hurriedly stretched out his right hand and shook it with Fang Lang.

"I'm glad to meet you, Your Excellency! I hope this incident doesn't leave you with any bad impressions. I also ask for your help to say a few kind words in front of His Excellency the Chief of Staff of the Navy. ”

Fang Lang glanced at the officer a little strangely, and said very calmly:

"This incident is not the responsibility of your London police, you police should not apologize to me!"

Hearing this, Officer Lugo Perrin laughed twice and said:

"Yes, yes, General Fang is right, but you were almost attacked in London, and this is the responsibility of our London police. Rest assured, the bastard who is intent on attacking you will be taken seriously. ”

Frowning, Fang Lang heard a different meaning from the other party's words, as if he wanted to blur the topic of racial discrimination. But Fang Lang only frowned, and said no more.

Because, he didn't want to expand the impact of this matter.

So, casually nodded and said:

"Look at it! If you need me to go to the police station to cooperate, please come to my home and let me know. ”

"No, no, our police station can handle this matter, so you don't have to trouble going to the police station to cooperate in person."

Officer Lugo Perrin waved his hand repeatedly.

In this regard, Fang Lang did not continue to express his opinion, just nodded politely, and walked towards the car parked on the side of the road. Because, he found that the two of them were standing in front of the Royal Opera House and attracted a lot of attention.

Fang Lang didn't want to be the object of being watched, so he chose to get in the car first to avoid the limelight.

Seeing Fang Lang walking briskly, Qi Qingshan opened the car door early, and when Fang Lang got into the car, he gently closed the car door without waiting for Officer Lugo Perrin, who was following behind, to approach.

After getting into the car, Fang Lang did not leave immediately, but continued to sit in the car and wait for today's protagonist Audrey Hepburn to come out.

This made Lugo Perrin, who was standing on the side, look a little embarrassed for a while, and when Fang Lang saw this, he whispered through the car door:

"Qingshan, you talk to this officer Perrin, it's best to inquire about this guy's family situation and political leanings from the side, as well as his true attitude towards the Chinese."

This sudden order made Qi Qingshan stunned, he thought that he only needed to send the other party away at will, but he didn't expect that he would have to have a deep understanding of the other party now.

However, he only glanced at Fang Lang a little strangely, and then nodded seriously.

Then, he forcibly squeezed a smile on his face, took two steps in front of the other party, shook hands with the other party and started talking.

To tell the truth, Qi Qingshan's attitude changed a little abruptly, which made Lu Ge Perrin a little uncomfortable for a while, why did the guy who just ignored him suddenly be so enthusiastic.

But his main task tonight is to establish good relations with the other side, control the impact of this matter within a controllable range, and turn a possible diplomatic dispute into a simple security case.

Just now, the other party may not be sure of the boss's thoughts, and it is not easy to express his position, but now that he knows the boss's thoughts, he naturally has to maintain the necessary communication with himself.

Officer Lugo Perrin, who wanted to understand this, looked at Qi Qingshan's gaze a little more kindly, everyone is a worker, why bother the other party? Therefore, I also talked to each other enthusiastically.

Seeing this, a smile appeared on the corner of Fang Lang's mouth, with his current status, some things are no longer suitable for him to come forward to do in person, and it is much more suitable to hand them over to Qi Qingshan.

After sitting in the car for less than ten minutes, Fang Lang saw Audrey Hepburn walking out of the Royal Opera House quickly, looking around at the door, Fang Lang smiled slightly when he saw this, picked up the flowers he had prepared earlier, pushed the door and got out of the car.

Audrey Hepburn had already noticed the vehicle that was obviously guarded by bodyguards, and when she saw Fang Lang getting out of the car with flowers in hand, she immediately cheered and ran quickly towards Fang Lang.

The two exchanged a big hug at the entrance of the theater, and Officer Lugo Perrin, who was standing not far away, finally knew why the Brazilian admiral had come to the Royal Opera House to watch the ballet.

After seeing the two of them get into the car and leave affectionately, he also ended the topic with Qi Qingshan very interestingly, and prepared to go back to his life.

Audrey Hepburn in the car really cared about Fang Lang's feelings about watching the drama, and kept asking him how he was doing. Fortunately, Fang Lang was prepared and expressed his opinion on this ballet.

At the same time, Audrey Hepburn's performance is naturally a strong praise, this kind of skill to make girls happy, for Fang Lang, it is not easy to catch.

Early the next morning, Fang Lang was eating breakfast on the dining table while picking up a few newspapers to read. He didn't want to let himself into the British public's eye, so he was a little worried that last night's events would be reported in the British newspapers.

After flipping through several newspapers and not seeing any reports about yesterday's events, he breathed a sigh of relief.

But at the same time, my eyes were also deeply attracted by the content of the newspaper, and I also understood why no one paid attention to my own matter. It turns out that the current British newspapers are all staring at India and Pakistan, which are about to become independent.

It was also from these newspapers that I learned that Viscount Mountbatten of Great Britain had already issued an official statement on June 4 this year, agreeing to realize India's independence on August 15, 1947, by dividing British India into two countries, India and Pakistan.

This news is painful for all Britons. After all, this is the crown jewel of the British Empire, and now it is about to leave them, how can this not make all the British people cry.

It's a pity that Fang Lang can't empathize with the British, but gloates a little. At the same time, I couldn't help but start thinking about whether there was any chance to make a fortune.

You must know that although India is very poor, it is just ordinary people at the bottom, and the emperors of those various tribes are rich one by one.

For a while, Fang Lang looked at the newspaper in his hand and began to ponder, there is something in India that is worth taking his own shot. The first thing that comes to mind is the gold in the temples of India.

But now India is in chaos, the local religious conflicts are serious, bloodshed occurs every day, even if the treasure is found at this time, it is estimated that it will be difficult to bring him out smoothly, this can only be slow.

Just when Fang Lang was thinking seriously, Audrey Hepburn walked out of Fang Lang's room with some embarrassment, opened the door and didn't forget to see if there was anyone outside, and only after making sure that there was no one else, did she breathe a sigh of relief.

Came to Fang Lang's side briskly, and sat directly in Fang Lang's arms, this action also directly woke Fang Lang up from his contemplation, and saw the girl sitting in his arms asking for a kiss to him, Fang Lang laughed.

After kissing each other gently, he pinched the other party's face slightly doting and said:

"Woke up?"

Audrey Hepburn nestled in Fang Lang's arms meekly like a kitten, and hummed softly. Yes, that's how dependent a girl shows on you after she truly dedicates herself to you.

"Aren't you going to class today?"

"I'm going! But I'm a little reluctant to leave you. ”

........

In this way, after the two of them were warm for a while, Fang Lang personally sent the girl back to school.

On the way back, Fang Lang looked at Qi Qingshan in the co-pilot seat and asked:

"Last night's situation with that police officer, you arranged for someone to investigate?"

This question has been haunting Qi Qingshan's heart since last night, and he can't figure it out, but now that he heard Fang Lang once again propose to investigate the background of the London policeman, he also took the opportunity to raise his doubts.

"Boss, I don't understand, why are you investigating the background of this policeman? I don't think I found anything special in him! ”

Hearing this, Fang Lang smiled and said:

"His experience is very interesting, if you can become friends with the other person, see if you can run him to the Hong Kong Police Department. We need a friend in Hong Kong. ”

At this time, Qi Qingshan didn't understand what Fang Lang meant, why did he deliberately befriend a chief inspector of the London Police Department in the United Kingdom, and let the other party go to work in Hong Kong.

You must know that in the eyes of the British, the status of the colonial police department cannot be compared with the status of the London police department.

Isn't it proper to be willing to be assigned from the center of the empire to a remote colonial police station when the brain is crowded?

In Qi Qingshan's mind, this choice would not be made unless this Officer Lugo Perrin was stupid.
