Chapter 1001 Breaking in
Masnan Road, Liu Mansion.
In the antique-style hall, Liu Changhe, with his short, graying hair, sat on a soft, comfortable sofa, listening to opera playing from a record player with his eyes closed.
Several burly men dressed in short-sleeved shirts stood inside and outside the house.
Just then, a short, stocky man rushed in, panting, and said, "Master Liu, something terrible has happened! The young master has been arrested by the police!"
Liu Changhe suddenly opened his eyes, a sharp glint flashing in them: "What did you say?"
"Young Master was arrested by the French police at Mengjiawan Wharf. He has now been taken to the police station and is being interrogated in the detention room!"
Liu Changhe suddenly stood up, immediately pointed at the men standing inside and outside the gate, and shouted, "Prepare the car, let's go to the police station!"
"Yes, Master Liu!" the men replied.
As Liu Changhe walked out, he asked the man who had brought the news, "How did the police know that Guowu was at Mengjiawan Wharf?"
The man who brought the news wiped his sweat and followed closely behind Liu Changhe, replying, "It's not clear yet, but I've already sent people to investigate. Don't worry, we have people in the police station; it won't be difficult to find out!"
Liu Changhe, along with dozens of his men, sped to the police station in several cars and trucks.
When the police officers saw Liu Changhe arrive with so many men, they were immediately on high alert, holding guns and blocking the entrance to prevent them from entering.
"What do you think you're doing? Back off, all of you back off! If you rush in again, don't blame us for shooting!" a sheriff shouted, pointing at the Green Gang thugs who were slowly advancing.
A gang leader patted the mirrored box in his hand and shouted, "We're scared! You think you're the only ones with guns? Do you think the weapons our brothers carry are just firewood sticks?"
At this moment, a foreign inspector came out of the building and, seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, immediately shouted: "What are you doing? What are you all doing? Put down your guns, all of you! And you, you scoundrels, what do you think you're doing coming to the police station with guns? Are you trying to rebel?"
Liu Changhe pushed aside his underlings who were blocking his way and stepped forward, shouting, "Sir, they've arrested my son inside. Am I not allowed to visit him? I just want to see my son. Is that too much to ask?"
The foreign inspector looked at Liu Changhe and immediately recognized him. His face was grim as he said, "Mr. Liu, no one is forbidding you from visiting your son, but your son is a murderer and is currently being interrogated. It is not the time for visits!"
"Furthermore, if you want to visit, please fill out a visitation application first, instead of bringing so many gunmen to threaten the police station. This is a place where rules apply, not your Liu mansion. Do you think the police station will be afraid of you with your rabble? Immediately tell your men to put down their guns, leave the police station, and retreat to the street. Don't obstruct our work!"
Liu Changhe remained silent, staring intently at the foreign inspector, who in turn remained silent, his eyes fixed on Liu Changhe.
Two minutes passed before Liu Changhe decided to back down. As the saying goes, the common people cannot fight with the officials. In this situation, the atmosphere should be left at this level, enough to make the police station wary. If it continued, the police station might lose patience.
"Put down your guns, everyone. Fang Shiye and A Cai, stay here. A Shui, go to the law firm and invite Lawyer Han over. Everyone else, step outside and wait!"
As Liu Changhe finished speaking, the dozens of armed Green Gang thugs he had brought retreated and soon found themselves on the street, with only two people remaining to accompany him.
The foreign inspectors and police officers secretly breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this. This police station had fewer than 30 people at most, including those who cooked, cleaned, and tended the fire. There were only 13 police officers with guns. If a fight broke out, this number of people would definitely not be a match for these fierce Green Gang thugs.
"Sir, look, all my men have gone out. Can I visit my son now?" Liu Changhe asked.
The foreign inspector said, "The interrogation is still ongoing, so you can't visit yet. However, you can fill out an application first, and I will approve your visit after the interrogation is over! Come in, go to the reception room to fill out the application, and then wait!"
"Thank you, sir. Let's go!" Liu Changhe cupped his hands in thanks and waved to his advisor and subordinates behind him.
The foreign inspector called over a constable to lead the three men to the reception room, then beckoned to another constable and whispered, "Tell Sergeant Lin to intensify the interrogation and get the prisoners' confessions as soon as possible. These guys are not to be trifled with!"
"Yes, sir!"
Shortly after Liu Changhe filled out his application, his lawyer was called in.
"Mr. Liu, I'm sorry I'm late. I just received the news myself. I didn't expect things to be so serious!" A middle-aged man in a suit and tie, carrying a briefcase, strode in and said to Liu Changhe.
Liu Changhe stood up and bowed to the lawyer, saying, "Attorney Han, the incident happened so suddenly, and I had no choice but to ask you to come here in such a hurry. I'm entrusting my son's matter to Attorney Han!"
Attorney Han immediately said, "Mr. Liu, I will do my best to negotiate. Let's go see the foreign inspector first to get a visitation opportunity!"
"it is good!"
The group arrived at the inspector's office, where they were received by a foreign inspector.
“Inspector Lofson, according to the relevant lease laws, I am Mr. Liu Guowu’s lawyer. As a lawyer, I have the right to visit my client and tell him that he has the right to remain silent!”
The foreign inspector frowned: "Attorney Han, I understand your feelings, but it's not possible now..."
"Why? This is a legitimate request and our right. You can't just take it away from us!" Attorney Han immediately said righteously.
The foreign inspector said, "Normally, that's how it is, but in the case of insufficient evidence, Liu Guowu shot and killed the victim in full view of everyone. That's undeniable, and there's no doubt that he's the murderer!"
"Attorney Han, Mr. Liu, actually, there's not much the police station needs to do in this case. The key is the trial in court!"
Attorney Han pulled Loeffson aside and whispered a few words to him, asking him to make an exception and get the man released on bail, promising a generous reward afterward.
"Attorney Han, it's not that I'm unwilling to help, but this is really not something I can decide. The deceased was a Japanese soldier, and if I were to make an exception, I would lose my job. So please understand my situation. I can only allow you to visit him within my capabilities, but please don't mention releasing him!"
Attorney Han understood what was going on. He walked back to Liu Changhe and nodded, "Mr. Liu, don't worry, I'll find a way! Please, let's talk in private."
"it is good!"
Once the two were outside in a secluded spot, Attorney Han said to Liu Changhe, "Mr. Liu, the foreigners have agreed to visit, but they can't grant bail. I'll go see your son now!"
