You were asked to keep a low profile and lie low, so you became the chief of a special high-tech dep

Hearing Richard asking for evidence, Tokita Chaoyang waved his hand, and Jiang Yifan ordered Kudo Hajime and Kawauchi Yuta to place ten brand new Browning pistols, dozens of grenades, and a bag of bullets in front of Richard.

In such a tense situation, Jiang Yifan would not be the one to stand out. If that reckless guy accidentally fired his gun, he would be the one to suffer.

After he finished translating, he immediately retreated behind Sato Ichiro and Tokita Chaoyang.

Those who don't know would think that he is polite and knows how to respect his superiors, but in fact, he is using his superiors as a shield.

Kudo Hajime and Kawauchi Yuta also followed Jiang Yifan and hid behind.

"Consul Richard, this is the evidence. Under the pretext of selling opium, Mr. Johnson secretly handed these weapons to Zhang Jizhong, the general manager of Daxin Department Store, and asked him to form a team to assassinate high-ranking officials of the Empire of Japan in Shanghai. If you don't give a satisfactory explanation for today's incident, we will never let it go!"

Tokita Chaoyang said in a strong tone.

After listening to Jiang Yifan's translation, General Manager Evan frowned and said, "Consul Shi Tian Chaoyang, I ask you to make it clear that this is the International Settlement, the territory of the British Empire and the United States of America. Do you want to be enemies with the entire West?"

What he said was so shameless that it couldn't be any more shameless.

After Jiang Yifan finished translating, he cursed in his heart, "Sooner or later, the Chinese people will use their blood and lives to drive out all of you foreign bandits."

Upon hearing this, Shi Tian Chaoyang immediately spoke up, "We don't want to be enemies with the West, especially Britain and the United States. However, the problem now is that it's not us who are enemies with you, but you and the Chinese agents who have joined forces to be enemies with us. We are forced to fight back! Because now the International Settlement has become the base and rear area for Chinese agents to oppose Japan. I won't talk about what happened before, but this time we absolutely cannot not arrest people."

After Jiang Yifan translated it, he finally understood why Shi Tian Chaoyang was so happy.

It turns out that the Japanese have long been eyeing the International Settlement and the French Concession, and these concessions have really become refuges for anti-Japanese forces for various reasons. Now they want to take this opportunity to take back the management rights of the concessions and put them in the hands of the Japanese.

In this way, after a heated exchange of words, the two sides finally reached a verbal agreement.

First, the two sides formed a joint investigation team to re-investigate the Zhang Jizhong case and jointly try the case.

Second, both sides sent representatives to a designated location to conduct in-depth and candid discussions and consultations on the issue of management rights of the public concession.

It can be said that both sides made concessions and finally shook hands and made peace.

Then both sides put away their weapons, stopped fighting, and withdrew their troops.

After returning to the gendarmerie headquarters, Tokita Chaoyang, Hihara Ryosuke, Sato Ichiro, and Tanaka Keiko went to Sato Ichiro's office to plot. Taking this opportunity, Jiang Yifan announced a holiday for the afternoon, allowing everyone to go back and have a good rest.

When Jiang Yifan passed by Laoliu Delicatessen, he reported the situation of the Daxin Department Store case to Xiao Yunlong truthfully.

After listening to Jiang Yifan's report, Xiao Yunlong handed one thousand yuan in French francs to Jiang Yifan.

"Another bonus!" Jiang Yifan reached out to take it, put it in his pocket and said.

"Boy! Work hard! You have a bright future!" Xiao Yunlong encouraged with a smile.

Jiang Yifan didn't say much. He took a roast chicken and went home.

Boss Dai took the telegram from the Lighter Team that Zhang Xiansheng handed over, read it through, and said with satisfaction:

"Hahaha! Lighter is indeed a talent! He actually did a great job and it was perfect. The next step is to find out Jia Xiaolin's whereabouts and kill this traitor who is trying to cling to the Japanese while the Japanese are negotiating with the International Settlement."

"Yes!" Zhang Xiansheng replied and turned to leave.

The next day, the gendarmerie meeting room was filled with mid-level and above officials from the gendarmerie, the Ume Agency, and No. 76. Sato Ichiro, Hihara Ryosuke, and Tokita Chaoyang gave speeches respectively, praising Jiang Yifan lavishly and praising him to the skies. Jiang Yifan wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into after listening to them.

Afterwards, Sato Ichiro, on behalf of the Military Police Headquarters, the Mei Agency, the Consulate, and the Special High Section, gave Jiang Yifan a bonus of 1,000 yen. Kudo Ichi and Kawauchi Yuta each received a bonus of 500 yen, and each team member received a bonus of 200 yen.

This made all the participants extremely envious and jealous, but there was nothing they could do, because Shinichi Shimabashi was so lucky.

Jiang Yifan's face also flushed, and he kept bowing to express his gratitude to the superiors on the rostrum.

Then, he went back downstairs very low-key, sat back in his seat, and bowed to his colleagues around him. He did not show any arrogance at all.

Keiko Tanaka sat on the podium and was very satisfied with Jiang Yifan's humility and low-keyness.

Next, Ichiro Sato announced that a joint negotiation team would be formed consisting of the consulate, the gendarmerie, the Ume Agency, the Special High Section, and Unit 76, with Keiko Tanaka as the team leader and Li Qun as the deputy team leader. They would enter the International Settlement and negotiate on the joint management rights of the International Settlement.

As for the Zhang Jizhong case, it is still under the charge of Shinichi Shimabashi of the Special High Section Operations Team, who, together with the International Settlement Police Station, have formed a joint investigation team to re-investigate the case.

Then the meeting was declared over.

Back at the Special High Section, Jiang Yifan came to the section chief's office and asked:

"Section Chief! What if the International Settlement Police Station refuses to cooperate?"
