Traveling through the Republic of China, I married a dead person

"Who?" Su Bai subconsciously reached into his bag to feel for the gun. When Manager Wan turned around and saw the man outside the window, he immediately exclaimed "Ah?"

The man pushed open the door and walked in. As soon as he stepped in, he laughed: "Boss Liu, I guess this lady is Miss Lan?"

Su Bai said nothing, holding the gun handle tightly and looking at the man.

He was in his thirties, and his dress and demeanor were very similar to Huang Wenchang, with a slicked-back hair and powdered face, a carefully trimmed moustache, and a short-sleeved floral shirt.

The biggest difference between him and Huang Wenchang is in appearance and body shape. He has a square face and a very sturdy body.

"Han, Inspector Han, why are you here?" Manager Wan looked very surprised.

It turned out that he was Han Charlie, the Chinese detective of the Concession Police Station. It was through him that Manager Wan contacted the director of the Municipal Council who had made a huge demand.

After introducing himself, Charlie Han said to Su Bai, "Ms. Lan, please don't be so formal. I have actually wanted to meet Miss Lan for a long time, but Boss Liu has been making excuses to not let me meet him. Now I am also doing things for Miss Lan. I can't take the money without knowing who the employer is, right?"

It turned out that this guy had followed Manager Wan to this place.

After he told Manager Wan that the Japanese had discovered the Fahua Pharmaceutical Factory, Manager Wan hurriedly drove to Su Bai to inform him of the situation. In his haste, he did not notice Han Charlie who was following him.

Su Bai loosened his grip on the gun handle and took it out of his bag: "Inspector Han, please sit down."

"Miss Lan, you're welcome. I'm a man who values ​​friendship and integrity when I do things for money. You won't regret dealing with me. Do you understand?"

Han Charlie also showed off his English. To Su Bai, his English was very poor. Could this be the legendary pidgin English?

"Then thank you, Inspector Han. I need you to take care of me more in the future. Thank you." Su Bai also replied him with half a sentence in English.

This sentence directly exposed Han Charlie, he didn't understand!

"I'll need Inspector Han's care in the future." Su Bai had no choice but to translate for himself.

When Manager Wan saw that even Inspector Han couldn't understand the foreign language Su Bai was speaking, he opened his mouth in surprise.

"You're welcome. Miss Lan, please don't say thank you in the future. I only care about business, not feelings!"

Bullshit. Just now he was boasting about his loyalty and friendship, but now he has no feelings at all.

"That's fine. I like Inspector Han's straightforwardness." Su Bai pushed the tea brewed by Wan Jiaqi in front of Charlie Han: "Boss Liu said that the Japanese knew about the Fahua Pharmaceutical Factory. Inspector Han, can you tell me what they are going to do?"

"This..." Inspector Han looked at Su Bai and said, "It's not a big deal. It doesn't matter."

Su Bai immediately understood what he meant and refused to talk unless he was paid.

At this moment, I regretted that I should always have some change on hand. To send off a person like him, ten or eight dollars would definitely not be enough. A letter of one hundred dollars should be enough.

But he only had gold bars on him, no wrapped dollars.

Su Bai could only take out a gold bar and push it in front of Charlie Han.

That’s all for this time. Next time I must prepare some sealed bags of dollars.

Han Charlie smiled, and without hesitation, he put the gold bars into his pocket, looked up at Su Bai and said, “Miss Lan is really generous, don’t worry, although I am greedy for money, I never take more. I will take the gold bars first, and I owe it to Miss Lan. If the Japanese target it, there will definitely be a lot of trouble. I will repay Miss Lan’s debt by doing things!”

From what he said, he really is a trustworthy man?

Does that mean you won’t charge me for doing things for me or tipping me off in the future?

Su Bai didn't know how many favors he still owed him after giving him this gold bar.

"Well, could you please tell us, Inspector Han?"

Just this morning, the Japanese Consulate sent a note to the Concession Municipal Council saying that a Japanese expatriate had stolen important documents from the consulate and fled. According to reliable intelligence, the thief hid in the Fahua Pharmaceutical Factory.

They asked the Municipal Council to allow them to send people into the factory to search for this person.

"What kind of organization is the Municipal Council?" Su Bai asked.

The Municipal Council is the Municipal Council.

Only then did Su Bai realize that the management agencies of all foreign concessions in Shanghai were called the Municipal Council, except for the French, which was called the Municipal Council.

But the locals were used to calling it the Municipal Council, so the Municipal Council in the French Concession was also called the Municipal Council.

Actually, it is the same thing, just with different names.

Obviously, the excuse of the overseas Chinese who stole things was made up by the Japanese side. They knew that the pharmaceutical factory was under Lan Jieru's name, and they entered the pharmaceutical factory for the drugs.

They did not dare to attack Lan Jieru directly. If the Municipal Council agreed to their request, there must be drug experts among the people they searched in the factory. They only needed to take away some drugs to achieve the first step.

"Don't worry, Miss Lan, can they do whatever they want in the French Concession?" Han Charlie said to Su Bai. The Japanese request was directly rejected by the Municipal Council.

At the same time, he boasted to Su Bai that the French director he helped to contact was a man who had the final say in the Municipal Council, so of course he had to do the job since he had taken the money. His reply to the Japanese side was that they could search the person, but the police had to send people into the factory to search, and they would be waiting outside the factory and would hand the person over to them once they found him.

If you can't find it, please go back.

Han Charlie also said that he had made arrangements to strengthen patrols near the Fahua Pharmaceutical Factory, and if any Japanese dared to enter the factory, they would be captured one by one.

He waved his fist and said, "I will never let these Japanese pirates get away with anything while I am here!"

This sentence made Su Bai feel somewhat favorable towards Han Charlie. Although he was running errands for the French, he still had a strong sense of national pride.

After this incident, Wang Shuan’s identity can be almost 100% confirmed, a Japanese spy.

"Inspector Han, it's not easy for a woman like me to run a business. I will have to trouble you in the future. If you need my help, please don't hesitate. I will do my best!"

To put it bluntly, just tell me when you need money.

"Okay, okay!" Charlie Han stood up and said, "I'm on official business, so I won't bother Miss Lan." Then he put down a business card and said, "If you have any difficulties, come to me first, I'll be there at your call!"

The business card not only had the police station’s phone number, but also his home phone number.

When Han Charlie left the house, Shopkeeper Wan quickly apologized to Su Bai, saying that he was accidentally followed here by Han Charlie.

"Let's go to the pharmaceutical factory!" Su Bai thought this was a good idea. Inspector Han's straightforwardness about money made Su Bai feel more at ease.

Maybe it's right to be careful, but you don't have to act like a thief.

Su Bai and Manager Wan came to the outside of the yard. Su Bai opened the car door and sat in the driver's seat.

"Miss Lan can drive?"

Su Bai smiled. Is it surprising that he can drive? He just had never driven such an outdated car.

Fortunately, apart from the brakes and accelerator being a bit heavy and the steering wheel not as smooth and light as modern cars, it was not as difficult to drive as I imagined.

Today I went to the pharmaceutical factory to help Zi Yan complete the fermentation work for the next batch of medicine. Next, I just have to wait, wait for Xu Tianyi to come back, and wait for news from Luo Pinzhang.

Whether it is a blessing or a curse, we can only leave it to fate.
