While walking on the road, he looked at the time.
It was already half past eleven. If the street lights weren't still on, he might have had a hard time walking here because he couldn't see clearly.
"Qin, how long will it take for us to reach this point?"
"There's no point in hurrying. We went to the city hall too early. People will be unhappy. We have to give the city hall a certain amount of time to prepare. If you want to go, just call a car at most and we'll be there soon.
, It only takes about ten minutes." Zhang Tianhao explained helplessly.
"Prepare, what are you prepared for?"
"Okay, Ross, this is the rule. We are going early to sort out the remains. Do you want us to see the bloody scene? Don't worry, Mr. Qin did the right thing."
One of the veteran guards explained the reason. When Ross heard it, he understood, closed his mouth and started to follow.
Just as Zhang Tianhao and the others were leaving, a middle-aged man appeared in the Peace Hotel. He walked to the front desk and started asking about Zhang Tianhao.
"Sir, I'm sorry, our guests are confidential!"
"Miss, you misunderstood. He is my nephew. When he came back this time, he didn't go home to see me. Aren't I worried? Come and see him." The middle-aged man immediately explained with a smile.
"He's your nephew, I don't know his name."
"Well, he has been out for a long time and even his name has changed. After all, young people like to escape from marriage and have not been home for several years. I don't know his name now! But his appearance has not changed in the past two days.
, his transient wife saw him and asked me to come over and ask."
"I'm really sorry for making you laugh, miss."
"So that's it. The one you're talking about is Mr. Qin, right? He's a translator, a translator for the Germans. He's only been here for three or four days. But now that he's out, he seems to have gone to the city.
The government just left."
The waiter also looked at the middle-aged man in front of him with sympathy.
"The surname has been changed to Qin. This unfilial descendant has even changed his surname. What is his name? I will go to the city hall to find him later."
"Call Qin Yuwen. If you walk fast, you can still catch up. After all, they walked over and didn't call for a taxi." The waiter explained it to him carefully.
"Thank you, thank you!"
The middle-aged man took out a military ticket and handed it over, then carefully thanked him.
"You're welcome, this is what I should do."
However, she still accepted the few yuan of military tickets and put them in her pocket. After all, this was what she deserved, she was just helping others.
The middle-aged man also turned around and left the Peace Hotel. As for the police outside, he directly avoided their patrol and disappeared into the darkness outside.
…
In the city hall, Zhang Tianhao sat in the conference room, doing nothing and saying nothing. Apart from sitting there drinking tea, he just sat there in a daze.
As for Vice Mayor Zhao who came over to ask a few questions, Zhang Tianhao still responded in a very official manner, while the four of them, Fred, were divided into separate shifts to stand guard at the entrance of the morgue.
As for Ross's other group, they rested directly and did not dare to run around or even move around.
The city government, the mayor and even the major captain of the Japanese army outside the city were also called over for a meeting to discuss how to deal with this incident.
It's just that in the end, they didn't discuss how to deal with this matter. They didn't even know how to deal with it. They had to wait for the higher-ups to say something.
What really embarrassed the Japanese captain was that his squadron leader, Major, also died in the battle. As a result, the revenge was not avenged. Now, a reinforced squadron of nearly 500 people was sent to rescue people, but as a result, about 100 more people were killed and injured.
He failed to save people and ended up dead. As a major, he had a lot of responsibilities.
"Major Zuo, how do you deal with this matter?"
"I'm sorry, I'm a soldier. I just obey military orders. I don't care about other things. As for not rescuing people, it's because the bandits didn't get the ransom at all, so this happened. There's nothing I can do about it!"
"I heard from the police that it seems you were the one who made the first move, right?"
"No, we were in legitimate defense. We just didn't expect that since you didn't come up with money, I couldn't save him. After all, the kidnappers wouldn't let him go, so we had no choice but to attack by force."
"You, you..." When the mayor heard this, he was also stunned, and then he wanted to curse. The expression on his face also changed again and again. In the end, he did not curse. He glared at the major and snorted coldly.
"In addition, this time the safety of Mr. Qiaoben and Mr. Augustus is the responsibility of the gendarmerie. I am just a city defense commander, a small major captain. I sent troops according to your request, and I did it temporarily.
The soldiers who were sent on mission were called back."
The major directly pushed the blame away from them. As for the fight, he didn't blame them. The reason was pretty easy to explain.
The mayor above was stunned when he heard this, but he immediately looked at the gendarmerie commander without saying anything. As a result, the other party did not pick up the blame, but also shirks responsibility.
…
At this time, both the Japanese Embassy in Xinjing and the German office in Xinjing were all brightly lit. After all, this matter had exceeded their imagination.
The robbers actually kidnapped Augustus and Japan's Qiao Ben and his party. This was a huge provocation since they ruled the Northeast, and it was something they could not tolerate.
"Kara, has the Japanese Embassy responded?"
"I have replied. In half an hour, you will go to Harbin with us to visit Mr. Augustus and see Mr. Augustus farewell."
Kara immediately recounted the content of the phone call from the Japanese Embassy she had just received.
"By the way, the Manchu royal family will also send a group of people to accompany us to Harbin, and we will form a convoy to go there. There should be no problem."
"Okay, now let's get ready!"
William has also made it clear to the superiors that the Tianjin Consulate has lodged a protest with the Japanese about this matter. After all, he was invited by the Japanese to invest, and as a result, the person died. This is a big problem.
It's just that all this has nothing to do with Zhang Tianhao, and he is just a spectator. Whether it is in the city hall, or when Mr. William comes over the next day, he negotiates with the Japanese, or even provokes Jin, etc., he just does a small thing.
Just a small spectator and translator.
Two days later, August's matter gradually calmed down, and both parties even achieved a relatively satisfactory result.
As for the band of robbers, there were more than a hundred people, but in the end only a dozen people escaped into the Daxinganling Mountains, while the others all died under Japanese gunfire.
And the matter is far from over. The Japanese are still sending troops to hunt down the remaining dozen robbers. It is estimated that these robbers will still have to spend a lot of effort to escape.
Three days later, when Zhang Tianhao and his group got into a car and drove to Xinjing, Fred and his group had an urn in their hands, but Zhang Tianhao was sitting in the car behind, with Carla and William sitting behind them.
"Qin, can you tell me about this? What you said two days ago, I don't understand carefully here."
The car was speeding on the road, and William was sitting in the back seat, asking casually with a tired look on his face.
"Sir, I really don't know much about this matter. It's just that I feel that something is a little strange. After all, the appearance of these robbers was too unexpected."
