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

This morning, Han Charlie hurried to No. 55 Haig Road to find Han Xiaoxiao and asked her to inform Su Bai as soon as possible. What happened at the Fahua Pharmaceutical Factory yesterday made the Municipal Council angry, and it has ordered the Pétain Road Police Station to arrest the murderer within three days.

Han Charlie asked Xiaoxiao to tell Su Bai not to take it lightly, as this matter was very strange.

The public security situation in Shanghai is very complicated. It is broadly divided into the Chinese Area, the International Settlement and the French Concession, which are independent of each other. It is very troublesome to arrest criminals across borders.

The International Settlement was even more chaotic. The areas around the consulates of Western countries were nominally under the management of the Municipal Council, but in reality they were small kingdoms.

Especially in the Hongkou area, there were a large number of Japanese expatriates and marines who did not obey the orders of the Municipal Council at all. Therefore, it was also called the Japanese Concession by the people. Officially, there was no Japanese Concession in Shanghai.

If a criminal committed a crime in the French Concession and then fled to the International Settlement or the Chinese Area, it would be impossible to catch him in a short period of time.

But today, the Municipal Council gave the Pétain Police Station a three-day deadline. Although such orders have been issued before, they were all used to fool the public and the media. This time it is serious.

According to Han Charlie's analysis, given the relationship between Miss Lan and Martin, plus their cooperation with the Municipal Council at the pharmaceutical factory, let alone injuring one person, even if a few people died, they wouldn't mobilize such a large force.

The only explanation is that the Municipal Council is targeting Miss Lan this time.

Han Charlie asked Han Xiaoxiao to tell Su Bai not to go back to the French Concession in the next few days until he figured out the cause and effect of the matter.

He also emphasized once again that it was definitely not because of Liu Yiming's shooting and injuring people. This incident could only be a fuse that allowed the Municipal Council to find a reasonable and legal excuse.

"There's no reason for the Municipal Council to cause trouble for us. Martin ate so many of our gold bars and the blood from the corner of his mouth hasn't been wiped clean yet!" Zi Yan said.

Wan Qili also felt that if the Municipal Board was targeting Su Bai, it would be too inhumane. She felt that Han Charlie was too suspicious and maybe it wasn’t that serious.

Xu Tianyi said that it was Liu Yiyan's fault, as it was he who caused the trouble.

Liu Yi kicked Xu Tianyi in the butt and said, "Yesterday you said I was a good fighter, you fence-sitter!"

Seeing that everyone didn't quite believe it, Han Xiaoxiao became a little anxious: "There is one more thing..." But she stopped halfway.

"What's the matter?" Su Bai asked.

"I, my brother doesn't allow me to say it..." Han Xiaoxiao wanted to say it, but was a little hesitant.

"Go ahead, it's okay." Su Bai touched her long hair.

Last night, a friend from the Municipal Police Department called Charlie Han's home and told him the news that the Police Department would send a new Inspector General to the Petain Road Police Station to personally investigate the Fahua Pharmaceutical Factory case.

This friend also revealed to Charlie Han that the reason for sending a new Inspector General was because the Municipal Council knew that the relationship between Lan Jieru and Charlie Han was special.

The Municipal Council did this to target Anita Mui, and this friend also told Han Charlie.

As for what specific method will be used to deal with Lan Jieru, this friend currently does not know.

Han Charlie didn't let Han Xiaoxiao tell Su Bai about this because he was afraid that Su Bai would worry. He planned to find out the details before telling Su Bai.

The Municipal Council could no longer wait and was eager to take over all the pharmaceutical factories.

Perhaps, because Guangci Hospital had achieved satisfactory clinical results with streptomycin, the Municipal Board wanted to take full control of the manufacturing process of streptomycin.

Su Bai felt that the second possibility was more likely. After all, the pharmaceutical factory had a price, but the patent for streptomycin was priceless.

In fact, Su Bai felt that the Municipal Council did not need to commit such a shameless robbery. The people in Guangci Hospital had already mastered the collection method and source of Streptomyces, which was equivalent to taking the most important step.

In time, they will surely be able to develop streptomycin.

However, this also depends on luck. Maybe it can be done in three to five days, or maybe in one or two years, but it cannot be longer.

There is an easier way, find Li Ningsheng.

Li Ningsheng has mastered more than 90% of the production process except for the collection of strains. As long as he cooperates with Guangci Hospital, no matter how dumb he is, he will be able to produce streptomycin within a month.

Thinking of this, Su Bai suddenly had a new guess. Could it be that Wang Shuan was behind this?

definitely is!

Su Bai stood up. He could spend money to deal with Martin and the Municipal Council. So could Wang Shuan. He would be more generous. More importantly, the Municipal Council was already afraid of the Japanese.

In this case, not only would he have to hand over the saline solution and alcohol to the Health Bureau at midnight tonight, but he would also have to move out the more than 55 bottles of penicillin and dozens of bottles of erythromycin at 100 Haig Road as soon as possible.

"Xiaoxiao," Su Bai said to Han Xiaoxiao again, "Haig Road is not safe anymore. You and Grandma Jiang should move back to your brother's house first and take the radio with you."

Han Xiaoxiao nodded, and Su Bai continued, "I have implicated Inspector Han this time. I will go back and express my apologies to him and ask him to be careful and stay safe."

After Han Xiaoxiao left, Su Bai instructed the people around her that no one was allowed to return to the French Concession without her permission, and that no matter what they bought, they had to stay within the International Settlement and the Chinese Concession.

Unexpectedly, after lunch, Han Xiaoxiao came again, and she brought the latest news that Han Charlie had found out.

This morning, the Inspector General sent by the Police Department officially took office. As soon as he took office, he started three fires, one of which was directed at Han Charlie, basically undermining his power.

The Municipal Council also formally appointed Hu Songzhai as the director of the Fahua Pharmaceutical Factory today. In order to win over the hearts of the people, it gave all employees of the factory an extra month's salary.

Han Charlie also heard that as soon as Hu Songzhai took office, he sent a lot of people to find the employees who did not come to work, and the police station also sent people to assist in the search, which was also very strange.

Xu Tianyi believed that after Liu Yizhong fired two shots yesterday, some timid people were afraid to come to work.

Su Bai shook her head. She didn't think so.

There's something going on here, but I can't figure out what it is.

Let them do whatever they want, the Fahua Pharmaceutical Factory has been completely thrown into the dog's arms.

Thinking of this, Su Bai felt unwilling to hand over streptomycin to those bandits in the Municipal Council.

Han Xiaoxiao did not move back to Han Charlie's house. Han Charlie said that although the police station had undermined his rights, there was no reason to do anything to him. Han Charlie's name was on the title deed of No. 55 Haige Road, so it didn't matter even if the Municipal Board knew about it.

However, it would be better to move the medicines stored there as soon as possible. He would help Su Bai in this matter.

"He will send all the medicine to you. My brother is still driving the Model T in the police station."

Han Xiaoxiao's words made Su Bai feel relieved. They took away Han Charlie's power but did not take the car back, which meant that the police department's approach to Han Charlie was just to make him avoid it.

"Be careful." After Su Bai sent Han Xiaoxiao out of St. Mary's, he turned around and asked everyone to prepare for the handover of saline and alcohol tonight.

Liu Yiyan opened his mouth and spoke again: "Listen, load up your bullets, something is bound to happen tonight!"

"You jinx, shut up!" Su Bai scolded.
