Chapter 542 Unfortunately Arrested
Seeing that Jinwu Kawashima was still so impolite, Layton's face changed, and he said coldly: "Mr. Kawashima, this is a concession, and you have to use evidence for everything. If you can't provide evidence, I can't let you People take it away."

If Kintake Kawashima arrests a few people or presents specific evidence, Layton will not stop him. After all, this white sheriff is a bully.

However, the white police chief dared not agree to arrest more than [-] people at once without any evidence. After all, the impact of this move was too great.

Another important reason is that the Li Deshun Hotel is a public place, and there are too many people living here, including some foreigners. If Layton dares to agree with Kawashima Kintake to take people away, he, the director, will When it's over.

"Mr. Layton, as long as you bring someone to the gendarmerie for interrogation, there will be evidence immediately, and I will send someone over to you at that time."

Kawashima Jinwu said indifferently, after all, this little devil knows that the white sheriff in front of him is a bear, as long as he is tough, the other party will not dare to stop him.

But this time Kawashima Kintake was wrong, because weakness is weakness, but this white sheriff is not stupid. After knowing that the Japanese took him away, the so-called evidence would not count, and it is known internationally that the Japanese Good at messing around.

At the same time, there were noisy voices in the lobby of Li Deshun Hotel. After all, the Japanese had a bad reputation. Anyone knew how they would be treated after being arrested by the Japanese.

"Mr. Kawashima, without evidence, I cannot let you arrest so many people. This is a contempt for the laws of the British Empire."

There was a bit of hardness in Layton's tone. After all, Kawashima Kintake's actions had already touched his bottom line.

Because the United Kingdom pays attention to the law, the concession is naturally the same. This is a matter of principle.

If the matter had little impact, Layton would not say much for the sake of the overall situation.

But under the watchful eyes of the public, he can't explain why the Japanese arbitrarily captured so many people. When the crowd is excited, the concession authorities will definitely use him as a scapegoat.

"Sheriff Layton, these people are all from China. There is a high possibility that they are anti-Japanese elements. I must arrest them for investigation."

Kawashima Kintake is still very strong. After all, the previous experience made this little devil think that as long as he is tough on Layton, he will surely achieve his goal.

"No, I can't let you take people away. Even if they really have problems, they should stay in the concession for interrogation."

This time Layton was really angry, and he no longer had any scruples. After all, he really couldn't bear the consequences of so many people being taken away.

Layton changed his attitude, causing the atmosphere in the hotel to become tense, and the white policeman also faintly confronted the Japanese.

After all, the white people in this period have always been used to being arrogant. Seeing the aggressiveness of the Japanese, these policemen were also very dissatisfied. It was just that Layton was weak, so they naturally dared not say anything more.

Now that Layton is getting tougher, these white policemen naturally don't have any scruples, and there are still a large number of Chinese in the police force. Make trouble.

Layton's tough attitude surprised Kintake Kawashima a little, especially seeing the white policeman confronting his side faintly, which made this little devil feel bad.

But the Japanese are used to being barbaric, and they don't know how to back down at all, so Kawashima Kintake feels a little bit hard to ride a tiger.

However, the three female overseas Chinese in the crowd felt a sense of relief when they saw the white police confronting the Japanese. They secretly hoped that the two sides would really fight so that they would be safe.

As time went by, the atmosphere became more and more tense, but in this situation, no one was willing to make concessions. After all, the British wanted face, and the Japanese also wanted face. As it is now, if people can't be taken away, Sichuan Shima Jinwu lost face.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Sheriff, everyone's target is anti-Japanese elements, as long as we find these people, we will be fine."

The person who spoke was Wu Baozhong. Seeing the tense situation, the traitor had no choice but to come out to persuade him.

Wu Baozhong's words gave both sides a step down. After all, Layton didn't want to provoke the Japanese, and Kawashima Kintake didn't want to get things out of hand.

Since Wu Baozhong was a lackey of the Japanese, Kintake Kawashima asked, "Mr. Wu, what proposal do you have?"

Kawashima Kintake's tone was very gentle. After all, his purpose was to find anti-Japanese elements, and he didn't want to start a dispute with the British.

Layton on the side also looked at Wu Baozhong, because the matter must be resolved, and this stalemate cannot continue forever. If there is a similar reason, he can stop.

"Your Excellency, Mr. Sheriff, the difference between the two sides is to produce evidence, so as long as the evidence is produced, it is enough to find the anti-Japanese elements."

What Wu Baozhong said made Kawashima Jinwu's eyes shine. Based on his understanding of this traitor, he knew that the other party said so, and he was sure to produce evidence.

On the other hand, Layton also felt a little relieved. After all, he really had the evidence, and he didn't have to confront the Japanese, so he didn't speak, and acquiesced to Wu Baozhong's proposal.

"What evidence can you produce?"

Seeing that Layton had no objection, Kintake Kawashima asked immediately. After all, he didn't have time to spend time with the British here.

"Your Excellency, the two corpses outside must be anti-Japanese elements, and the people living with them are naturally anti-Japanese elements."

After speaking here, Wu Baozhong glanced at Kawashima Kintake and Layton, and found that they both nodded, and continued to say: "Then just let the waiter of the hotel identify who is the accomplice of the deceased in the crowd, and then we can determine who They are anti-Japanese elements."

As soon as Wu Baozhong finished speaking, Kawashima Kintake said in agreement: "That's right, this way we can identify anti-Japanese elements, Mr. Layton thinks."

Kawashima Kintake's tone was no longer so tough. After all, he only wanted to find the underground party and returned overseas Chinese, so he slowed down his tone to give Layton a step down.

"This is quite possible. As long as you show the evidence and find the real anti-Japanese elements, the British Empire will not refute your reasonable demands."

Layton also took a step back. After all, he didn't want to fight hard with the Japanese. Besides, this matter didn't do him any good. As long as he wouldn't take responsibility, he wouldn't care too much under a certain level. Nosy.

Both of them agreed that the tension in the hotel had eased a bit. Layton called the manager of the hotel and asked him to take the waiter to identify the corpse and find the target.

The manager of the hotel was very reluctant. After all, the behavior of the Japanese had offended the manager a lot.

But seeing Layton's attitude, the manager didn't dare to object, so he had to take a few waiters to look at the corpse, and then came back to look for the target.

The three female overseas Chinese were all in the lobby of the hotel, so they naturally heard Wu Baozhong's words, but they were only women, and under the watchful eyes of the Japanese and white policemen, they had no way to do anything.

The target was only dozens of people, so the waiter quickly recognized the three female overseas Chinese, and then the Japanese agents were about to go forward to arrest them under the signal of Kawashima Kintake.

"Mr. Sergeant, I don't know that we violated the law of the concession, which made you want to arrest me.

Also, are these people the police of the concession? Even if we break the law, we should be arrested by the police of the concession. "

When the Japanese agents were about to arrest people, a female overseas Chinese shouted loudly, and stepped forward directly to ask the white police chief.

As soon as the female overseas Chinese finished speaking, the other two overseas Chinese also agreed, because all three of them knew that things would change if they fell into the hands of the police in the concession. After all, the underground party and other compatriots would not give up on the three of them. I will definitely find a way to save people.

But if it falls into the hands of the Japanese, the situation will be quite dangerous, and it will definitely be a dead end, and I am afraid that it will be seriously injured.

Following the words of the three female overseas Chinese, the rest of the hotel also started to discuss, and even agreed with the female overseas Chinese's words, asking Leiden to act in accordance with the laws of the concession.

The reason for the overwhelming response is that these people are angry with the Japanese. After all, the behavior of the Japanese is very barbaric. Now that they have the opportunity to cause trouble for the Japanese, they will naturally agree.

Moreover, most of the people in the hotel were Chinese, and they naturally didn't have the courage to directly confront the Japanese, but it was still possible to speak up and ask Layton to act in accordance with the law.

This situation made Kawashima Jinwu frown, and immediately signaled his subordinates to move quickly, and to catch the person first.

But at this moment Layton spoke: "Mr. Kawashima, I must first arrest them and lock them up in a rented prison. If you want someone, please follow the normal diplomatic procedures."

Although I didn't want to offend the Japanese, it was hard to be outraged. Seeing the menacing people in the restaurant, many white people agreed, so Layton had no choice but to stop it. After all, the British still want to save face.

However, Leiden would not offend the Japanese for the sake of a few Chinese, so the meaning in the words is also to signal Kawashima Kintake to calm down first, and after going through the diplomatic procedures, he will naturally hand over the people to Japan.

As soon as Layton finished speaking, Kintake Kawashima's face changed, and he wanted to arrest him by force, but he had to give up this idea when he saw the white policemen in front of him.

Thinking that the man has already been arrested and will fall into the hands of the Japanese sooner or later, he said coldly: "Sheriff Layton, we will go through the normal procedures soon, you have to take good care of him."

The reason why Kawashima Kintake took a step back was because he saw Layton's firm tone, and he could get someone after going through the normal procedures.

Seeing Kawashima Kintake cooperate so much, Layton also breathed a sigh of relief. After all, he only did this under the pressure of public opinion.

Facing the white police, the three female overseas Chinese cooperated very well, because falling into the hands of the police is also a kind of protection. As for what will happen in the future, they can't care about it, and can only put their hopes on their companions.
