0384 [Judicial Boss]
"Hong Kong has always been the Hong Kong of our British!"
Chai Wan, golf course.
Commissioner of Police Lawson stood respectfully behind one of them, watching them play.
The man who spoke at this moment was an old white man, with gray hair, a hooked nose, high cheekbones, and a pair of turquoise eyes full of arrogance.
"If you continue to let those Chinese police officers go, we Britons will have a very bad foundation in Hong Kong in the future." The white-haired old man is holding a golf club, looking at the golf ball on the ground, with an elegant posture, swinging it out!
Syllable!
The white golf ball slices in mid-air in a nice arc and lands on the green in front of it.
"Good shot!" Rosen applauded.
The old man turned his head, handed the club to the caddy, took the white towel handed by the servant, wiped the corners of his forehead, and looked at Rosen: "That Chen Zhichao was originally a very obedient dog, but unfortunately, this dog was crippled by the tiger you maintained." ”
Rosen hurriedly explained: "Du Yongxiao is very good, shrewd and capable, and -—— in Scotland Yard"
The old man interrupted Rosen, "What about being shrewd and capable? We British don't need competent Chinese, we need obedient Chinese dogs! That Du Yongxiao, is he obedient? ”
"This -——"
"You can see from your reaction that he is disobedient!" The old man gave Rosen a contemptuous look and handed him the towel he had finished.
Rosen hurriedly stretched out his hand to take it, with a respectful gesture.
As the first brother of the Hong Kong Police Force, he has a transcendent status, and he is usually served by others and scolded him, but in front of the old man in front of him, Lawson had to lower his posture.
The old man in front of him is none other than the British Empire Sir - Bailiqu!
In addition, Bailiqu is the boss of the Hong Kong Bureau of Justice, in charge of the judiciary, and even the Hong Kong Governor Dai Lingzhi has a high opinion of him.
Especially when Dai Lingzhi was in charge of Hong Kong in the early days, Bailiqu assisted him in solving the biggest "water supply crisis" in Hong Kong.
In Hong Kong in the 60s, draft was tight. Especially during Dai Lingzhi's tenure, Hong Kong was hit by a severe drought in the summer of 1967, when Dai Lingzhi once announced the implementation of water production and the implementation of the policy of "four days of water supply for four hours".
In order to solve the problem of insufficient water supply, shortly after Dai Lingzhi took office, Bailiqu participated in the negotiations as his adviser, which led to the formal agreement between the British authorities in Hong Kong and the Chinese mainland government on April 22, 1964, confirming that from March 1965, the amount of water supplied to Hong Kong from the mainland would increase from 5 billion gallons per year in 1960 to no less than 15 billion gallons per year, equivalent to about 62 million gallons of water per day, and the selling price would be HK$1.06 per 1,000 gallons.
Later, in 1967, it was proposed to dig a hole in Lion Rock to divert water from the Plover Cove Tamsui Lagoon to the urban area to prevent drought, and it was not until 1968 that the Plover Cove Tamsui Lagoon was completed, and the water shortage in Hong Kong was temporarily alleviated.
In 1970, that is, this year, the Hong Kong government proposed to spend $28 million to raise the levee height of the Plover Cove Reservoir Lake and expand the Sha Tin Water Treatment Works, so that the water filtration capacity of the Sha Tin Water Treatment Works could be increased from 80 million gallons per day to 175 million gallons, laying the foundation for solving the drinking water problem of Hong Kong people.
It can be said that the construction of these two major projects directly pushed the reputation and status of Bailiqu to a new height, and also made him win the judicial bureau this year and become the big man among the big guys.
"That Du Yongxiao, I've heard a lot about him." Bailiqu walked under the parasol and sat down on the chair.
Rosen walked over, but did not dare to sit down, but stood aside.
"Young and vigorous, fierce and ruthless, I can endure these! But he is the only one who does things too much, and this kind of person is not easy to control. Bailiqu opened the cherry box, took out a cigar and sniffed it on the tip of his nose, then took a cigar cutter, cut the cigar cap short, bit it on his mouth, and slowly grilled it with a lighter.
"For example, this anti-drug campaign was originally a good thing, but it caused chaos in Hong Kong. Those addicts are sick and sick. There are also those associations that rely on drugs to make money, and when they have no financial resources, they rob their homes and houses......"
Bailiqu crossed his legs, took a puff of his cigar, and puffed out smoke.
"Now the drugs are almost swept away, and he also cleared all his opponents by the way! This kind of person is the most terrifying. ”
Rosen frowned and said, "You mean Chen Zhichao -——"
"Chen Zhichao was originally a chess piece, which was used to balance Lei Luo. But now, he was eliminated by Du Yongxiao, and Lei Luo became Du Yongxiao's vassal again, so who will balance Du Yongxiao in the future? ”
"The Chinese Chief Superintendent is in a high position, if he is connected with those Chinese policemen, then the future justice in Hong Kong will be decided by them, not us British."
Rosen coughed: "Got it, so what do I do?" ”
"How? What else can you do if you take money from the surname Du? ”
Rosen was shocked and hurriedly said, "Sir, I'm -——"
"You don't have to explain." Bailiqu waved his hand, "You confiscated the money, how much money you collected, it has nothing to do with me, and I won't check the accounts, but -——"
Bailiqu's green eyes flashed with a gleam: "If you continue to let that Du Yongxiao be lawless, then you, the police commissioner, will also do it!" ”
Rosen felt a chill in his heart, and hurriedly lowered his head: "Yes!" ”
Bailiqu looked at him, "Then you know what to do now?" ”
"Hold another chess piece." Rosen said, "Check and balance Du Yongxiao." ”
"That's right, find a better and more obedient domestic dog to contain Du Yongxiao's wild dog." Bailiqu nodded, "And I have already helped you choose someone!" ”
Lawson didn't know why, but he saw a person not far away stepping on the grass and walking lightly.
It was a Chinese, in his forties, with a Chinese face, two eyebrows as sharp as knives, and a pair of eyes like eagle falcons.
"Is that you?" Rosen was stunned.
The man came up to Bailiqu and Rosen and smiled: "Hello, sir! Hello, sir! ”
Rosen frowned: "You didn't go to the United States to assist the FBI in handling the case, when did you come back?" ”
"Just came back!" The man smiled, "I've heard that the police force is short of people right now, so I'll ask Sir to reserve a position for me." ”
Rosen smiled, "There are not many seats in the Hong Kong Police Force that can be suitable for you Li Luoff now!" ”
"It doesn't matter, as long as I can do things for the British Empire and work for the welfare of the people of Hong Kong, even if I ask Li Luo to see the gate, I am willing!"
Rosen shrugged: "You were already the chief inspector of the Political Department before you left Hong Kong, if you came back one step earlier, Ge Bai's position as chief superintendent would definitely be yours!" ”
Li Luo smiled: "I heard that Du Yongxiao is also very good, the first chief superintendent of the Chinese, it sounds so majestic!" ”
Bailiqu smiled, took a cigar, and slowly got up from the sun lounger, "He is very powerful, but I plan to let you overpower him now!" Let you be the leader of the Independent Commission Against Corruption, okay?! ”
