Chapter 265 An Old Friend of the People of Tianjin
Chapter 265 An Old Friend of the People of Tianjin
It was already noon when Lin Ze returned to the gendarmerie headquarters. He reported to Kitahara Ransuke about the results of checking the ticket registration book.
It seemed that Kitahara Ransuke didn't have much hope. When he heard that Lin Ze got nothing, he was not too disappointed.
"Qing Shui took the initiative to apply and went to Baliwan for inspection. Lin San, you should take a rest first. Colonel Matsuzaki should be in charge of this matter personally this afternoon."
When Lin Ze heard this, he was surprised that Shimizu Takuye was really a man who kept fighting despite repeated failures. It should be said that this guy was quite tough.
Fortunately, I used the bad luck charm to disfigure him, and then he became a little extreme and stubborn. Otherwise, if this guy was allowed to grow up in the military police headquarters, he would really be a tough opponent in the future.
Because Zhou Qiming was not dead, this incident only had a bad impact, but there was no major actual harm. Kitahara, who had been in a heavy mood in the morning because of Colonel Matsuzaki's rage, now relaxed.
He smiled at Lin Ze and said, "Mr. Lin, how about it? Have you thought of how to help Mr. Yamaguchi? I see that my old friend is very anxious. If you let him have a taste of the sweetness, maybe he will marry his daughter to you soon, haha!"
Lin Ze said seriously, "Mr. Kitahara, I have always regarded this as an order from you. No matter how Mr. Yamaguchi treats me, I will spare no effort to help him because he is your friend. I have already discussed with Mr. Miyamoto to see if Mr. Yamaguchi can participate in his business."
At this point, Lin Ze smiled shyly, "I want to move to a new house recently. It would be great if I could make some money from it."
Kitahara was indeed somewhat moved.
What an honest Mr. Lin is!
He really told me his thoughts without reservation!
"Mr. Lin, you are very smart, but you are a little too naive and kind in some matters. You have done so many things for the headquarters. Sometimes, influence is also a resource. Do you understand?"
Kitahara Ransuke winked at him.
What I mean is that you are a big shot now. If you use the banner of the Military Police Headquarters to do some business and make some money, we will definitely turn a blind eye. You don't need to be so cautious!
You are my subordinate, as long as you are loyal, nothing will happen to you!
The two were chatting animatedly when Shimizu Takuye knocked on the door.
Kitahara Ransuke quickly returned to his expressionless state and sighed in his heart. Alas, except for Lin Sang, I really don’t like anyone now.
People are afraid of comparison!
"Qiyishui-kun, did you find anything?"
Shimizu Takuno seemed to have completely forgotten what happened at Kita Seiichi's place, and was still very respectful to Kitahara Ransuke, "Kitahara-kun, I have made some discoveries, and I think foreigners have helped me with this!"
Lin Ze really wanted to strangle this guy to death.
You just got a few dollars for nothing, and your face is already bruised, why are you still taking it so seriously?
Kitahara Ransuke didn't quite believe it. He felt that Shimizu-kun had become too radical and too eager to achieve merit.
"Really? Tell me about it?"
"Kitahara-kun, I apply for the arrest of Eric Liddell of Baliwan Gospel Hall!"
When Lin Ze heard this, there was no expression on his face, but he thought to himself that it was terrible.
As soon as he heard the name, he knew that this guy might really be involved in this matter. He might not be the mastermind of the assassination, but he definitely helped the three students escape.
Eric Liddell has a Chinese name, Li Airui.
His life was extremely rich and he had multiple identities, the most eye-catching of which was the champion of the 400-meter event at the Paris Olympics.
In addition, he was a Scotsman who was born in Tianjin and grew up drinking the water of the Haihe River. He was also a devout Christian and missionary.
The most relevant point about this case is that Li Airui is a high school science and engineering teacher.
Kitahara Ransuke frowned.
"Shimizu-kun, are you kidding me? Can Mr. Liddell just arrest someone?"
Liddell, also known as Li Airui, may be a name known only to some people in Tianjin in later generations, but now, Li Airui is a real celebrity with an outrageous influence. On the one hand, he often preaches in Beijing and Tianjin, and knows many foreign dignitaries and some celebrities in Beijing and Tianjin who believe in Protestantism.
On the other hand, this guy is really an old friend of the people of Tianjin. Not only does he work as a science and engineering teacher in a high school in Tianjin, he also actively participates in social undertakings, building roads and bridges, establishing charitable foundations, and presiding over the construction of Tianjin's Minyuan Stadium.
The admiration he has for him among the young and old men in Tianjin is comparable to that for Yu Shuyan, Sun Juxian and other top stars in Tianjin.
Shimizu Takuno didn't care about that. He just said firmly, "I found an eyewitness. A small Ford car from Baliwan Gospel Hall went to the train station this morning. After three people got off the car, Liddell took them into the station and then drove back to the Gospel Hall himself."
Kitahara Ransuke asked in confusion: "But Lin-san has checked the passenger register and there are no three young students who meet the requirements."
Shimizu Takuno cursed in his heart, Lin Sang, Lin Sang, you only know Lin Sang!
He is in a very complicated state of mind right now.
On the one hand, he also admitted that Lin Sang was really a good person.
On the other hand, when he saw that Kitahara Ransuke trusted Lin Sang so much, it was the cracks in his relationship with Kitahara that made him feel very uncomfortable.
Shimizu Takuno looked at Kitahara Ransuke, then at Lin Ze, and said, "What if those three people didn't buy tickets at all? If I remember correctly, in order to facilitate the travel of foreigners between Beijing and Tianjin, and also to ensure their safety, there will be a special carriage once a week. This carriage does not require tickets to be purchased at the station, right?"
Lin Ze stood up immediately and said, "I'm very sorry, I just checked the passenger register today, I didn't know there was such a thing as a special carriage!"
Unexpectedly, Qingshui took the initiative to say: "Few people know about this matter, so it's normal that Lin Sang doesn't know."
Well, he just wanted to make a contribution, not to embarrass Lin Ze.
Kitahara couldn't help but feel conflicted after hearing what Shimizu Takuno said.
Arrest him. This Liddell has too much influence. Now the empire has not completely fallen out with those old gangsters. If this Liddell refuses to admit it, then if this matter gets out of hand, the impact will be very bad.
But if we don't catch them, what if those people Liddell sent away are really the murderers? How can we explain this to our superiors?
Then Kitahara came up with an idea. "How about this, Qingshui, you go call Tianjin and tell them that several people who might be the assassins of Zhou Qiming are traveling to Tianjin in a carriage chartered by foreigners. Tell them to wait at the train station. If they find these three people, arrest them immediately!"
It’s difficult, so let’s not do it. Let the Tianjin secret service agency worry about it!
