Rebirth: Rising Hong Kong

Chapter 1071: Do you believe in justice in this world?

Boom!

Thunder bursts.

The weather was gloomy, and when Shi Zhijian rushed back to the mansion, the sky was already oppressive.

In the huge living room, there was a dead air, and there was no sign of the old sister Shi Yufeng and others.

The maid handed Shi Zhijian a wet towel to wipe his face, and Shi Zhijian asked, "What about my sister and the others?"

"They were visiting Papaya. Papaya was afraid of being frightened after what happened last time. She always had nightmares. Madam was in a good mood, so she went to the Wong Tai Fairy Temple to ask for a magical amulet, and now she went to comfort Papaya."

Shi Zhijian nodded after listening, and wiped his cheek with a towel.

When a girl's family encounters such a change, there will always be problems. What's more, papaya has always been heartless and pure at heart. It should be difficult to accept this situation suddenly.

At this time, the housekeeper Wangcai came in and reported that Xu Sanshao and Huo Dashao were coming.

Every time the Shi family encounters a change, the two good brothers Shi Zhijian will come to visit as soon as possible, which makes Shi Zhijian grateful.

"Three Young Masters, Young Master Huo, are you here? Have you eaten yet, together?" Shi Zhijian waited for the two of them to enter the door and greeted them.

"We heard about Shao Qiang and Papaya, what can I do to help you?" Xu Sanshao didn't even talk to Shi Zhijian, and got straight to the point.

"I'll solve this matter, you guys are interested!" Shi Zhijian invited the two to sit down on the chairs and let the servant serve tea.

"Where's Sister Yufeng?"

"She and Yong Qin are upstairs---- Papaya has been having nightmares these days."

"It's no wonder if you don't have nightmares! Seeing a ghost rushing into the street in front of you with your own eyes, even a big man like you and me would be frightened!" Huo Dashao and Shi Zhijian.

Huo Dashao waved his hand. His family education is very strict. Huo Daheng recently asked him to quit smoking and drinking. He listens to the old man's words very much and is using practical actions to prove that he is a dutiful son.

Shi Zhijian took one and bit it on his mouth.

Xu Sanshao took out a lighter and lit it for Shi Zhijian to light the cigarette: "I think it's very difficult for you to quit smoking! You don't even have a bit of concentration!"

Shi Zhijian took a puff with a cigarette in his mouth, "Have another puff while my sister is not around!"

When the servant next to him saw his young master smoking, he remembered the reward order issued by Shi Yufeng, he could get hundreds of dollars just by filing a complaint, but after thinking about it, it was fine. The young master smoked because he felt uncomfortable! Every family has a hard-to-read scripture!

"To tell the truth, Ah Jian, I think this matter is very difficult to handle! The one who was shot and killed by the idiot was a ghost, or a British soldier. You also know that these ghosts in Hong Kong have always been lawless and never put us Chinese in the eye. , they will not give up when they encounter such an accident this time!" Xu Sanshao analyzed.

"Yeah, I heard that Colonel Philip has got the support of that old fox in Bailiqu, and he will definitely fight the case to the end. It will be easy to arrest Mo Qiang and go to jail, I'm afraid that you will also be implicated!" Huo Da Shao Seriously.

Shi Zhijian flicked the cigarette ashes and thought quickly: "I knew that Bailiqu was going to pull me into the water, and I wanted to take advantage of this case to smear me. It's best to ask Her Majesty the Queen to remove my baron, and don't tell me to go. Britain has been awarded honors, maybe there will be one more crime of cover-up!"

"Since you know this, you might as well leave the matter to someone else!"

"You let me stay out of it?" Shi Zhijian glanced at Xu Sanshao, "If it was your family, your friends, Sanshao, would you stay out of it?"

Xu Sanshao hesitated, "No!"

Huo Shao said from the side: "I said earlier that it's useless to come and persuade Ah Jian!"

"Try it, it's always right!" Xu Sanshao sighed.

"Okay, you've finished what you should have said, do you want to stay for dinner?" Shi Zhijian asked.

"If you can't eat it, how can we eat it?" Xu Sanshao said, "To be honest, do you have the worst plan now?"

"The worst plan?" Shi Zhijian was stunned. "What I am most afraid of now is the response from the Hong Kong government. If there is any movement there, it will prove that Philip doesn't want peace talks at all, and will make things worse!"

"Hong Kong government? No way, Hong Kong Governor Dai Lingzhi has such a good relationship with you!"

"Things are unpredictable, especially Dai Lingzhi will be leaving office next month. What would you do if you were to do something like this?"

"this----"

"The Governor of Hong Kong is also a ghost after all!" Shi Zhijian said softly.

Xu Sanshao and Huo Dashao fell silent.

Yes, even if Shi Zhijian is good at dancing and has a good relationship with Hong Kong Governor Dai Lingzhi, but after all, the other party is a ghost, and they will of course protect the interests of their kin when encountering such a thing.

As if verifying these words of Shi Zhijian, Jingle! the phone is ringing!

Butler Wangcai hurried over to answer the phone, and it took a long time before he said to Shi Zhijian with a look of astonishment: "Master, the Hong Kong government is calling, so you must come over now!"

...

Shi Zhijian was sitting in Xu Sanshao's car. At this time, he turned his face to the side with a worried look in his eyes, and looked directly at Xu Sanshao in front of him. The expression on his handsome face changed several times, and he sighed: "Sanshao, In fact, you don't have to send me there!"

"I also want to go to the Hong Kong government to see and see!" Xu Sanshao held the steering wheel and looked straight ahead and said, "Hey, I'm not worried about you!"

The Hong Kong government is in front of you, and you can see the lion flag flying on the roof from a long distance.

Shi Zhijian took a few deep breaths, stretched out his hand to open the door, and when he spoke again, his voice had become very calm: "Wait for me, and drink together after we go back!"

"Received! I'm with Lao Huo, you treat me!" Xu Sanshao waved to Shi Zhijian.

"Sure!" After Shi Zhijian finished speaking, he turned and walked towards the Hong Kong Governor's Office.

Just after entering the hall, a dull thunder sounded in the sky outside, and then the raindrops fell like beans, and in the blink of an eye, the outside world was wet.

...

"I'm sorry, dear Senator Shi! I'm sorry to have you come here in such a heavy rain! Lord Governor of Hong Kong already knows about Ding Yongqiang's murder, but he is busy talking to London now, and you know him I will be leaving office next month, and many things need to be reported to the London side!" Meghan, the secretary of the Hong Kong Governor, said very politely, sitting on the large red seat in the waiting room of the No. 4 Governor's House, Shi Zhijian said.

Dai Lingzhi didn't want to see her, but sent a secretary to receive him, obviously intending to distance herself from Shi Zhijian.

Shi Zhijian remembered the close relationship between the two sides when he helped Dai Lingzhi in the past. When he thinks about it now, he can't help laughing dumbly. After all, the ghost is a ghost, and no matter how you raise it, you will not be familiar with it. As long as your own interests are involved, his face will change immediately.

"Then I really want to know what the Governor of Hong Kong's attitude is when he finds out about this matter?" Shi Zhijian asked after the Chinese servant who helped deliver the coffee bowed and resigned.

Meghan, the secret secretary of the Hong Kong Governor, smiled, then lowered her voice and said, "Of course, the Governor of Hong Kong takes it seriously! After all, this is a murder case, and it happened in public. What's even more embarrassing is that the police and the army of the British Empire still There was a confrontation at the Wan Chai Police Station! Tell it, it's an international joke!"

Megan is one of Dai Lingzhi's inner confidants in the Hong Kong Governor's Office. Many times when she encounters affairs that she cannot get out of, Dai Lingzhi will ask Megan to help.

Originally, as Dai Lingzhi was about to step down, Meghan could also take a break and consider whether to stay in the Hong Kong government in the future or go back to the UK with Dai Lingzhi. I didn't expect such a thing to happen halfway.

Although Mai Lihao has inherited the power of Dai Lingzhi's Hong Kong governor, Dai Lingzhi is still the official Hong Kong governor on the bright side. Mai Lihao will not be strong in such a case, so he has to throw the hot potato to the old Hong Kong governor.

However, Dai Lingzhi, the old Hong Kong governor, is not a vegetarian either. Since Mai Lihao took the blame, he is not stupid. He also dumped the blame directly on the confidential secretary, Mr. Megan, and asked him to beat Shi Zhijian.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Megan! Please apologize to Mr. Hong Kong Governor on my behalf! If time could go back, no one would want such a thing to happen!" Shi Zhijian's attitude was very sincere.

Megan is very satisfied with Shi Zhijian's performance at the moment. You must know that Shi Zhijian is very famous in Hong Kong now. Even Bailiqu was defeated by him, and he has a close relationship with Mai Lihao. All this is enough to make Megan think that Shi Zhijian is a special identity. Big man! But such a big man apologized to himself at this time, and Megan's vanity was fully satisfied.

"You can't talk like this, dear Senator Shi!" Megan put on a high stance and stirred the coffee gently. After Shi Zhijian finished speaking, he took a deep breath of the coffee and said slowly: "This one The nature of the matter is bad, but it can't be solved with an apology! Do you know that in order to suppress those messy public opinions, the Governor of Hong Kong has done a lot of work, and I haven't even slept well these days!"

"Really? It seems that the Governor of Hong Kong is really worried about this! I really don't know what to do except apologize!" Shi Zhijian said Tai Chi.

"What to do, you know what to do!" Only then did Megan realize that Shi Zhijian had been fighting guerrillas all the time, but he didn't speak in the real direction.

"Oh, yes, but I really don't know. If you know, Mr. Megan, I would like to hear about it!" Shi Zhijian deliberately tested the other party's tone.

"It's very simple!" Megan showed an arrogant look. "The Governor of Hong Kong has personally met the Chief Justice of Internal Trial and inquired about the details of the case, so he came to the conclusion that it is better for Senator Shi to abandon the car and keep the coach!"

"Abandon the car to protect the handsome? What does it mean?" Shi Zhijian pretended not to understand.

Megan smiled, "Mr. Shi, did you do this on purpose? Now is your last chance. If you can't seize it, the Governor of Hong Kong will be very angry, and the consequences will be serious!"

Shi Zhijian took a sip of coffee, put down the coffee cup, looked up at Megan, and said, "I still don't understand!"

"Mr. Shek, are you kidding me? You think I'm just a secret secretary of the Hong Kong Governor and can ignore me? If so, then I can tell you that I don't like your jokes very much, it will kill people. !" Meghan was so rude by Shi Zhijian that even her tone became a little vicious.

In Megan's view, Shi Zhijian is simply ignorant. The whole case is already obvious. That **** third-class Chinese killed a noble-born British soldier. This alone is not an exaggeration to be hanged!

If Shi Zhijian is smart, he should avoid suspicion and stop paying attention to this matter. In order to show his loyalty to them, the British, he personally asks the Chinese who was on the street to confess his guilt and fall under the law, so that everyone can be happy!

But Shi Zhijian just pretended to be confused. Isn't this ignoring what his confidential secretary is?

"Mr. Megan, what is the cornerstone of Hong Kong's stability and prosperity?" Shi Zhijian did not change his attitude because of Megan's threat.

"Of course it's the incomparable influence of our Empire on the Sun!" Meghan said with a cold face and arrogantly, "If there is no British Empire to support your Hong Kong, let alone prosperity and stability, it is estimated that even security will be threatened!"

"Wrong! The cornerstone of Hong Kong's continued stability and prosperity is the legal system!" Shi Zhijian said firmly, "An open, fair and just legal system is stronger than any army, and more convincing than any words! And this time, What I want to pursue is a fair legal system, an open and fair trial!"

Meghan didn't want to listen to Shi Zhijian's theoretical nonsense at all, but Shi Zhijian's last sentence made him stunned: "You want this matter to be tried publicly?"

You know, after the incident, the Hong Kong government immediately covered it up to prevent it from fermenting! Lest this matter become an international joke and become a big news!

But now, Shi Zhijian has actually stated that he wants to spread the matter out~www.readwn.com~ and also have a public trial? ! Isn't this against the Hong Kong government?

"Speak slowly, let me take a good stroke----" Megan looked a little overwhelmed, looking at Shi Zhijian, "You mean you want to shake this matter out and let the surnamed Ding accept it publicly. Trial?"

"That's right, that's it! I think the law is fair and just, and I'm willing to accept any outcome of the trial!" Shi Zhijian spread his hands towards Meghan and said firmly.

"God, are you crazy? You can't cover up this matter, and you still have to make it public?" Megan asked in disbelief, "Don't you know that the Governor of Hong Kong asked you to come here so late? What do you mean? I'm just afraid that you will shake this matter out, so I hope you can solve it privately with that Colonel Philip! But you, you really think that you can do whatever you want when you are a member of the Legislative Council, and you don't have to put the glory of the Hong Kong Governor in your eyes. , can you oppose the British Empire's garrison in Hong Kong?"

"I've never thought of it this way," Shi Zhijian stood up and said, "but in my mind, I have always adhered to a principle, that is-justice! I believe that the law will tell everyone what justice is, and it will also tell the Hong Kong Governor. Your Excellency, what does a gentleman do and what not to do! Finally, please take my place and say hello to the Governor of Hong Kong!"

Shi Zhijian nodded slightly towards Megan, then turned and left!

"you----"

Meghan, who was tragically ignored, was so angry that she almost jumped up from her chair. He never thought that Shi Zhijian would dare to be so bold!

When Shi Zhijian had just left the living room, Hong Kong Governor Dai Lingzhi walked out from the inner room with his hands behind his back, looked at the roaring rain curtain outside, and asked Megan, "Dear, do you believe there is justice in this world?"

Megan was confused, not sure how to answer.
