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

Tanaka Keiko asked Jiang Yifan to close the door, and then said:

"Since they have agreed, they will definitely cooperate. Besides, they also want to investigate the issue thoroughly. Because if the investigation results show that it was not Johnson who did it, then our negotiations will make no progress. If the investigation results show that it was indeed Johnson who did it, then the International Settlement will have to make greater concessions to us!"

Having said this, Tanaka Keiko paused for a moment before continuing:

"Even if we cannot verify Johnson's conclusive evidence, we must find a way to delay it and buy time for our negotiations."

"Ha Yi!" Jiang Yifan replied and turned to leave.

He got on a three-wheeled vehicle, took his action team, followed the negotiation team, and headed towards the International Settlement.

When we arrived at the public office building, someone was already there to greet us.

Keiko Tanaka and Li Qun were taken upstairs, while Jiang Yifan, Kudo Ichi, and Kawauchi Yuta were called to another office by a detective named Taylor Quincy.

The other team members were waiting in front of the building.

"Captain Daoqiao, please take a seat!" Taylor Quincy said politely to Jiang Yifan and the other two.

Kudo Hajime and Kawauchi Yuta, who didn't understand English, saw Jiang Yifan sit down, so they sat down too.

"Please tell me what happened again!" Taylor Quincy said again.

So Jiang Yifan recounted the whole incident in a simple and clear manner.

Taylor Quincy was silent for a moment before he asked again, "According to you, the Chinese agent lighter is Mr. Johnson, right?"

Jiang Yifan waved his hands quickly and said in English:

"Inspector Taylor, we have not concluded that Mr. Johnson is the Chinese agent lighter, but the prisoner Zhang Jizhong insisted that Mr. Johnson is the lighter, so we have to arrest Mr. Johnson and conduct an investigation and interrogation."

Since Jiang Yifan was speaking English, Kudo Hajime and Kawauchi Yuta couldn't understand him at all. They could only look at the expressions on the two people's faces and guess what they were communicating.

Hearing this, Taylor Quincy spoke again:

"Captain Daoqiao, I have just learned the whole situation. To be honest, I can now judge that you will gain nothing. Because your evidence cannot prove that Mr. Johnson is a suspect at all! However, in order to make you give up, I have decided to let you meet with Mr. Johnson and have a talk."

But before Jiang Yifan could speak, Taylor Quincy said again:

"But I warn you not to use violence against Mr Johnson, let alone torture him."

Jiang Yifan couldn't help but feel a headache when he heard this. What kind of logic was this? If he was not tortured, he would probably never admit that he was involved in this case in his entire life.

He calmed down and asked, "So what can we do with Mr. Johnson?"

"You can ask questions, have a chat, and investigate Johnson's residence, but you cannot forcibly search without his consent, or my consent!"

Taylor Quincy answered according to procedure.

"If we don't even have the right to search, how can we investigate this case?" Jiang Yifan looked at Taylor Quincy and asked.

Taylor Quincy thought for a moment and then spoke again: "This issue cannot be viewed absolutely. If a search is really necessary, it must be approved by me."

Jiang Yifan cursed in his heart when he heard this, thinking that the British were really having a hard time talking. Why not just say directly that everything needs your consent? Why are you talking so much?

So Jiang Yifan said again: "Since we are a joint investigation team, any action must be agreed upon by both parties before it can be taken. Am I right?"

"Yes, yes, yes! That's what I mean." Taylor Quincy nodded repeatedly in response.

"Okay then! Let's go meet Mr. Johnson first. I want to talk to him in person!"

Jiang Yifan let out a long sigh and said.

Kudo Hajime and Kawauchi Yuta felt like they were in motion sickness. They talked for such a long time but didn't understand a word they said. Their heads were like rattles, looking here and there.

"OK!"

Taylor Quincy answered readily, then stood up and walked directly outside.

"Captain! Where are we going?" Kudo finally got a chance to speak and asked hurriedly.

Jiang Yifan stood up and said as he walked, "Let's go see Johnson."

Upon hearing this, Kudo Hajime and Kawauchi Yuta couldn't help but stick out their tongues. It was so damn difficult to talk to the British. It took them such a long time to finally negotiate a meeting with Johnson.

Taylor Quincy drove a police car, and Jiang Yifan followed behind on a three-wheeled vehicle.

After a while, we arrived at the door of a shop: John's Tobacco Shop!

When Jiang Yifan saw the word "opium den", his heart was filled with resentment!

These black-hearted British businessmen have made a lot of money from the Chinese, ruined countless Chinese families, and destroyed the will of countless Chinese people.

His crime deserves to be punished!

Under the leadership of Taylor Quincy, Jiang Yifan, Kudo Ichi, and Kawauchi Yuta walked into the tobacco shop.

Sitting in the lobby was a fat, short Englishman with a fat head and big ears, greasy cheeks, but his eyes were like awls, piercing straight at Jiang Yifan, Kudo Ichi, and Kawauchi Yuta.

This man looked to be around 55 years old, with gray hair. He was wearing a very well-fitting suit, a tie, and shiny black leather shoes. He looked very capable and did not appear lazy or cumbersome because of his obesity.

"Inspector Taylor! Is this the Japanese Special High Section action team you mentioned?" Johnson retracted his gaze and asked Inspector Taylor with a flattering look.

Taylor Quincy ignored Johnson and looked at Jiang Yifan and said, "Captain Daoqiao, this is the Mr. Johnson you want to see."

Then Inspector Taylor turned to Johnson and said:

"Mr. Johnson, this is Captain Shimahashi of the Japanese Special Operations Team in Shanghai. He has come to ask you about the Zhang Jizhong gun and ammunition case. I hope you will take it seriously and answer the questions truthfully."

Johnson ignored Jiang Yifan and asked Taylor Quincy to sit on the sofa next to him. His attitude was extremely arrogant.

This made Kudo Hajime and Kawauchi Yuta secretly clench their fists.

You bastard! We'll let you run wild for a while until we catch you. Humph! We'll settle all the old and new scores together then!

Jiang Yifan was calm as water. He ignored Johnson and looked at Taylor Quincy and said, "Detective Taylor, we want to take a look. Is that ok?"

Taylor Quincy nodded and replied, "Sure!"

Then he winked at Johnson.

Johnson stood up reluctantly, looked at Jiang Yifan and said:

"Captain Daoqiao! I advise you not to waste your time here. I guarantee that you will gain nothing!"

As soon as Johnson finished speaking, a picture suddenly appeared in Jiang Yifan's mind!
