"The police force has completed the collection of evidence and will sue Lei Luo in court." Ji Da got the latest report, sat in the waiting area of the Governor's Palace, and waited until MacLehose came back from the meeting, and immediately walked in the door to report: "It seems that He Dingxian is destined to push Lei Luo as a scapegoat." ”

"You can see it from that article." MacLehose spoke indifferently, as if he had expected it, and sat down in an office chair, with a portrait of the Empress behind him.

Wearing a diamond tiara, holding a white fan, and wearing a pure white dress, the young Elizabeth sat on the golden throne, showing her youth and beauty, grace and luxury, and graceful figure.

Every time Jida came to the governor's office, his eyes couldn't help but glance at the portrait.

MacLehose was wearing a suit, crossed Erlang's legs, lit a cigar, and said in an orderly manner: "Let Lei Luo take care of everything alone, won't Lei Luo's people be afraid of being implicated and dissatisfied?" ”

"Definitely."

Ji Da said confidently: "Lei Luo has served in the Kowloon District for more than ten years, and there are many party members, and he is in a class of his own. ”

"Tsang Shaoke alone is still the chief inspector of the New Territories, and there are more than 400 people under his command, plus five or six police stations in Kowloon, at least more than 600 people are under his control. Although most of them are military uniforms, criminal teams and other departments, there are definitely manpower. ”

MacLehose nodded: "I gave He Dingxian two ways to go, and he has a way to get him whichever way he chooses." ”

"He's desperate to push Lei Luo out, in the end he's still afraid, the more scared he is, the more we have to fight! Let the deputy director of management of the police force, Skemin, do more activities and buy the men and horses in Lei Luo's hands first, so that he will not be afraid of riots in the police force. ”

"I can tell them that if I want to serve the Hong Kong government now, I can apply for amnesty for them in the future and keep my position and all my assets."

Ji Dali saluted: "Yes, sir!" ”

MacLehose is not afraid that He Dingxian will push the matter on Lei Luo, because everything has a price, and Lei Luo has to bear the backlash if he carries the matter, and there is just the opportunity to pull a group and fight a group, and then the police force will split, and there will be enough force in his hands to use.

What he wanted was never to bring down the police force, but to crush the nationalism in the police force and destroy the Chinese forces.

Create a force that obeys orders and does things for the Hong Kong government.

As for the fact that the Community Relations Office was one step late and let the police force overtake in a corner, MacLehose was somewhat dissatisfied in his heart, after all, Lei Luo fell into the hands of the police force and fell into the hands of the Hong Kong government, and now they can't even interfere in the investigation.

But instead of holding Ji Tat accountable, he said in a voice of encouragement: "I will take this opportunity to propose the establishment of the Anti-Corruption Commission in the Legislative Council, and I believe that all sectors of society will not be able to oppose it, and you will be the first Anti-Corruption Commissioner." ”

“Thank you， sir！” Ji Da was so excited that he stood up and saluted first, thanking him loudly.

MacLehose smiled gently: "At the same time, it will be clearly stipulated that the Anti-Corruption Office will be responsible for the Prevention of Bribery Ordinance and the Election Fraud Ordinance. ”

As the Community Relations Department (CRD) was not part of the law enforcement agency and was not directly responsible for the POBO, the Anti-Corruption Unit could use the POBO to intervene. When a PCP-level department is established, the Anti-Corruption Unit will lose its pretext.

While the Anti-Corruption Ordinance still includes investigations into commercial crime and disciplined service personnel, it does not include investigations into public officials. This allows the Hong Kong government and the Anti-Corruption Office to be invincible, as the saying goes, I can check but you can't check, you can check, I want to check!

As long as the Anti-Corruption Office can find evidence of the Anti-Corruption Chamber, it will naturally be able to abolish the functions and powers of the Anti-Corruption Office and monopolize the investigation power of Hong Kong!

Half a month later.

Hong Kong Island Court of Final Appeal,

The case of Inspector Lei Luo of 500 million yuan was tried publicly, and nearly 200 dignitaries and journalists from all walks of life attended the trial to witness the largest corruption offender in Hong Kong.

Lei Luo did not invite a defense lawyer, and confronted the British judge in court, sneering into the microphone: "Judge, do you collect money?" ”

The justice, dressed in a red robe, struck the gavel with an angry face.

Da-da-da-da!

"Please refrain from asking questions that are irrelevant to the merits of the case."

Lei Luo was wearing a suit, his hands were handcuffed, but he pointed to the sky with his fingers and roared: "I swear to the lights, I want to be a good policeman on the first day I am admitted to the police academy, and I will not have a penny in the first year of employment!" ”

"But I don't take money, my colleagues look down on me, my superiors look down on me, and even my fellow villagers in the housing estate look down on me! Everyone scolded me for being a stupid boy, I didn't dare to accept any money, and I had no interest! Later, I decided to take the most, and if I wanted to be greedy, I would be greedy! ”

"After I started collecting money, my official fortune was prosperous, and I was promoted to the third level in a year, and I was subdued in both black and white, why? Because, in society, not only the black ones collect money, but also the white ones collect money, the Chinese collect money, and the ghosts also collect money, at least I collect money and do things for them, with me Lei Luo in the place, a store does not have to pay twice. I will solve all the troubles that can be solved, and I can settle the problems that used to be solved by fighting and killing. ”

"Silence!"

"Silence!" The justices were furious and struck the gavel repeatedly.

The lights flashed, and the reporter took a pen and took a quick record.

Lei Luo scolded: "The empire of money is not man-made by me, it is built up by the citizens of Hong Kong one by one, and a handful of sand is erected!" ”

"It's the Governor!"

"It's you ghosts! If you don't help us, we can only form associations to protect ourselves! Now you want to arrest me, I don't accept it, I'm just a superintendent, a little superintendent, judge the governor first and then sentence me! ”

The chief justice was already anxious, stood up and scolded: "Bailiff! ”

"Bailiff!"

"Drag him down."

The two uniforms immediately trotted up and dragged Lei Luo, who was pointing at the sky, down the courtroom.

Then the judge announced an adjournment for half an hour, and after another half an hour, the judge went to court alone to announce the verdict, and sentenced Lei Luo to life imprisonment and confiscation of all illegal assets on seven counts of corruption, bribery, abuse of power, and suspected of wounding.

Historically, Lei Luo's escape from Hong Kong Island before the ICAC investigation launched has caused an uproar, not because there is anything unusual about fleeing, but because Lei Luo is too famous on Hong Kong Island. In this case, Lei Luo was sentenced to life imprisonment in the final court, and it set off a storm of public opinion on Hong Kong Island.

Some citizens applauded Lei Luo's arrest, and some people saw Lei Luo's speech in the newspaper and felt that corruption in the police force was not a matter of one person, but caused by the whole social form. The Hong Kong government played a glorious role in the case, but it was suddenly attacked, leaving the Auxiliary Secretary anxious.

If Bai Liji faced this turmoil, he would definitely have a headache, which is why Bai Liji did not dare to start during his tenure. But MacLehose has only been in office for a few months, and it can be said that he is lightly traveling, and he can't be scolded no matter how much he scolds.

After MacLehose once again expressed his determination to fight corruption to the public, his actions in power were even more expected by the public.

Two months later.

The legislation officially passed the "Independent Commission Against Corruption Ordinance" and approved the establishment of the Independent Commission Against Corruption. It can be seen that history is a dynamic process, and when the Chinese in the police force are stronger, the ghosts will also react more positively.

Kee Tat was appointed as the first Commissioner of the ICAC in Hong Kong and reported directly to the Governor, while the Community Relations Department was transformed into a first-level department under the ICAC, and the Investigation Unit and the Enforcement Unit were upgraded to first-level departments and renamed the Investigation Division and the Operations Division.

The Anti-Corruption Division was established, and the Equipment Division and Personnel Division were completed.

All the ICAC budget has been earmarked by the Governor's Office, and the new department plans to recruit an additional 200 personnel, mainly to supplement the staff shortfall in the Operations Division and the Investigation Division.

Yan Guoliang and Han Zhibang were promoted to investigation officers, Jiang Yichong was promoted to senior investigators, and senior police officers transferred from their ancestral families, such as Lu Dingtang and Wei Liqin, were transferred to senior investigation officers in the Operations Division and the Investigation Division.

Ji Da's confidant, Ou Liangxian, is the chief investigation officer and the number two person in the Independent Commission Against Corruption.

Many of the members of the first batch of executive groups have also been promoted, the establishment has been expanded, and there are more positions, and the status of the old members has naturally risen.

Kowloon.

Typhoon shelters.

Ni Kun, Lard Boy, Chen Xijiu and others all carried packages in their hands, moving them from the car to the boat one by one.

More than 30 plainclothes police officers, holding guns in their hands, patrolled back and forth at the entrance of the wharf, some people in the community loomed on the fishing boats, and He Dingxian, Zeng Shaoke, Cai Zhaoguang, and Lei Luo were fluttering with bangs in the sea breeze, chic and handsome.

Lei Luo smoked his cigarette and said, "The Independent Commission Against Corruption has really been established. ”

“ICAC。”

"Huh." Cai Zhaoguang chuckled, pronounced his English name, and said with disdain: "I have sent someone to contact a few new gangsters of the ICAC to see if they want to make money on Hong Kong Island." ”

Zeng Shaoke smiled with a smile on his face: "Traveling thousands of miles across the ocean, living separately from his wife and children, not just to make money, but also to be promoted, it can't be to serve the empress, right?" ”

"Does the Empress give him sleep!"

Cai Zhaoguang had a stubble on his face, and sneered: "Don't talk a fart about sleeping." ”

He Dingxian shook his head and couldn't help but interrupt: "Okay, I'm here to see off Ah Luo today, so I don't want to mention a little business." ”

Lei Luo chimed in: "That's right. ”

"Don't always talk about sleeping with the Empress, I feel itchy when I say it, be careful to put you to sleep."

At this time, Ni Kun stepped forward and said, "Big boss, the boat has been packed." ”

"Brother Luo."

Chen Xijiu came to Lei Luo's side.

Lei Luo patted him on the shoulder and said loudly: "Although you are the most incompetent among the detectives under me, I like you the most, live a good life on Hong Kong Island, don't live up to the wives at home, and don't live up to Inspector Hua's position." ”

"Got it, Brother Lo." Chen Xijiu hung his head, his expression a little sad.

In fact, when he heard someone laughing at him for collecting broken shoes, he would secretly complain about the big guy in his heart, but the big guy gave too much. Seeing that the big guy was leaving, he felt that he had lost his backbone, and he was apprehensive and reluctant. Lei Luo raised his eyes to look at He Dingxian, Cai Zhaoguang, and Zeng Shaoke again, and sighed: "Take care, everyone! ”

"I'll have to accompany you here."

"Arlo, stay safe on the road." Zeng Shaoke said: "Remember to call when you go to Canada. ”

"Passport closed."

He Dingxian stuffed a document into his arms: "Be careful." ”

"Gone!"

Lei Luo took his passport, turned around and walked towards the fishing boat, and suddenly raised his hand and shouted, "Goodbye! ”

"Hong Kong Island!"

The brothers beside the dock leaned down in unison, bowed and shouted, "Brother Luo, goodbye!" ”

Here goes,

It's hard to see again.
