Feng Yi spoke English. I can’t say that his pronunciation and enunciation were very standard, but he still had no problem understanding him. Loxter smiled and said, “I wouldn’t be surprised if Mr. Feng lives on Hong Kong Island, but you are from China.
Coming...
At your age, you can still speak fluent English, but I have to look at you differently."
Now the whole world knows about the situation in China. It was only a few years after the founding of the People's Republic of China. It had been at war before. Most of the people were displaced. Let alone speak English, how many people can recognize all the Chinese characters?
At Feng Yi's age, he caught up with the Japanese invasion not long after he was born, and the war continued, but he can still speak English, which is definitely not something ordinary people can do.
Shu Ning almost laughed out loud when she heard this. Feng Yi looked to be in his early twenties, but was actually about the same age as her. As early as when they met, she knew that Feng Yi had studied abroad. Now Locust regarded Feng Yi as
Those who still had the opportunity to go abroad when the war was raging probably thought about the other party's identity in a complicated way.
When Feng Yi heard this, he smiled calmly and said: "It's really great that Mr. Loxter can sit in the position of police commissioner. Unfortunately, Feng's situation is special. Please forgive me for the difficulty in confessing my identity to you.
Feng came here this time because the man and woman arrested by our police had an irreconcilable relationship with me. We just arrived in Hong Kong last night and had not had time to register our identities. We did not expect to encounter such a major case just after we arrived.
, the two of them were mistakenly regarded as murderers and arrested. Feng made this move out of desperation, and I hope Mr. Loxter will not blame Shu Ning."
What he said is ambiguous, and what he is talking about is incomprehensible.
But what Feng Yi didn't expect was that Loxter was only surprised at first, then regained his composure and said calmly: "Mr. Feng, I admire your country for being able to come out of difficulties and disasters and rebuild...
Chengguo may be great, but what I want to remind you is that this is Hong Kong Island, and now it is the concession area of our empire where the sun never sets.
Maybe in a few decades, Hong Kong Island will return, but now, it has little connection with your country.
Therefore, no matter how special your status is in your country, you must act according to our rules on Hong Kong Island."
Yes, as expected, this country is still the troublemaker. No matter in the past or in the future, this country is not pleasant to people.
Shu Ning did not expect Locust to be so resolute. He was worried that Feng would make the atmosphere more tense by repeatedly saying unpleasant words, so he couldn't help but said: "Mr. Feng, I know Mr. Locust's character very well. He is a fair man."
A just person.
Regarding the mummy case, it is of great importance. He will not do anything that will bring shame to the Empire on which the sun never sets. We must believe in him."
The other party had a firm attitude and was obviously not prepared to give Shu Ning face. Although Feng Yi had a special status in Shu Ning's heart, that happened many years ago. Now Shu Ning is the boss of the newspaper and has a lot of people waiting for him.
Have a meal.
If they completely fall out with Loxter, their newspaper's life will not be easy. It took a lot of effort to reach the current scale, and they certainly cannot bet on the newspaper's future.
So Shu Ning was going to take Feng Yi and leave first.
However, she specifically pointed out that the mummy case has attracted worldwide attention. If Loxter declares that he has solved the case and caught the mastermind behind it, and similar things happen in the future, he will definitely be the one who is embarrassed, and he is also helping Feng Yi.
Locust was noncommittal after hearing Shu Ning's words, and it was hard to tell what he was thinking.
A weak country has no diplomacy.
The other party said such words on the territory of his own country. Feng Yi couldn't refute it, and he felt very disgusted.
Although he knew that the country would continue to develop and grow in the future and its status would be much stronger than it is now, these people in front of him didn't know that.
Besides, even though the country later became far more powerful than it is now, these Western powers have always been hostile to and vilified them.
Thinking of this, Feng Yi also put away his smile and said: "Mr. Loxter, I have no intention of taking advantage of the situation to pressure others, and I have no intention of letting you bend the law for personal gain.
When it comes to this matter, I won’t hide it."
As he spoke, he took out the stone given to him by the leader and said: "Actually, I was sent by our country to investigate the mummy case. Mummy cases have appeared all over the world, and such cases have also appeared in our country. This is obviously not a case.
Little things.
The last mummy case happened on Hong Kong Island.
Although Hong Kong Island is now leased to you, it is still part of our country. This is a fact that cannot be changed.
The two people you captured are my colleagues and subordinates. The reason why they appeared at the scene of the mummy case was to investigate the matter.
Originally, we wanted to keep a low profile and try not to deal with you, but unexpectedly, they became suspects due to a strange combination of circumstances, so I found Shu Ning to take action. The purpose is to meet you and have a good talk."
After saying this, Feng Yi handed the stone over and said, "The surnames of our country's leaders are engraved on it. This stone is unique in the world. It was a token specially given to me by my leaders when they were worried that I would encounter a difficult situation.
If you don’t believe it, you can ask someone to verify it to see if I’m lying.”
Feng Yi's remarks made Loxter a little moved. If what the other party said was all true, it would prove that he was the absolute confidant of the Chinese leader. This status was a little more important than before.
He may not give face to a second-generation person, but he must not give face to the leader.
Shu Ning didn't expect that things would take such a turn, and looked at Feng Yi in shock, but soon felt relieved.
She knew when she was in Gantian Town that Feng Yi was appointed as the "Corpse Exterminator General" by the people in power at the time.
Therefore, it is normal to become a confidant of contemporary leaders and hold a token.
On the other side, Loxter took the stone, looked at it carefully, raised his head and looked at Feng Yi for a few seconds, then handed the stone back with a smile and said, "I didn't expect Mr. Feng to have such an identity."
When Feng saw that the other party believed his words, he put the stone away again and said: "The incident happened suddenly. I hope Mr. Loxter won't be surprised."
"Since Mr. Feng is the leader of your country who has come to investigate the mummy case, I will definitely cooperate. After all, we have the same purpose, and we both hope to catch the murderer as soon as possible.
But your two subordinates didn't speak clearly before, and their attitude was very bad, so I can only temporarily imprison them.
Now that things are making a big fuss in the city, it is really difficult for you to ask me to let him go now..."
Feng Yi waved his hand and said: "Mr. Loxter is overly worried. Feng has no intention of letting you release them now. I know their identities and others don't. I won't make it difficult for you."
The purpose of my visit this time is, firstly, to identify myself and hope that you will not close the case hastily; secondly, I want to meet them, after all, they have been in contact with the crime scene and may have some clues."
