The Japanese community is commonly known as Akita Ward.
Akita District is famous for Akita cuisine, and this restaurant has a history of nearly a hundred years in Nanping.
Now Lu Ming is in a very lively private room inside. Sitting there are all the leading figures of the Nanping Security Bureau and the police station. It is a welcome banquet to welcome the criminal investigation experts from Montenegro.
Lu Ming sat in the corner of the long table. Next to him was Deputy Chief of Police Lin Hanshan.
It was Lu Ming who insisted on sitting like this, saying that the guests should not take over the limelight today, and that solving the case should be discussed by you professionals, and I'm just here to join in the fun.
Sitting in the main seat were Chen Rongfu, director of the Nanping Security Bureau, Liu Xin, chief of the police station, and a criminal investigation expert from Montenegro, a bald Westerner named Quixon, who is currently the superintendent of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the Montenegro Police Station. He personally led the several criminal investigation personnel who came this time.
"I heard that he is a famous detective and was well-known in the Federal Special Investigation Bureau. However, the imperial capital is in chaos now, and the Special Investigation Bureau is about to be reorganized into a secret police organization by the crown prince. He resigned because of this, but was invited by General Lu to come to Montenegro?" Lin Hanshan asked in a low voice.
Lu Ming smiled: "It seems so."
I didn't dare sit too close to Quickson. This guy had a superhuman sense of smell and an extremely accurate sixth sense. I had to be careful not to let him see my flaws. After all, he was familiar with me and had met me too many times in private.
Of course, even if he found out, it wouldn’t be a big deal. I don’t think he would tell any third party, but it wouldn’t feel good.
Lu Ming looked at Lin Hanshan again. Lin Hanshan called the eldest prince "Crown Prince" instead of "Crown Prince", which actually revealed the attitude of the people towards the disputes in the imperial capital.
The Western ethnic groups split, and the Sonyans who supported the Second Prince have declared independence as the Kingdom of Sonya. The Second Prince was crowned the Grand Duke of Sonya and claimed the right to inherit the imperial throne.
The Newman Legion, one of the three major legions of the Royal Guards, had an ambiguous attitude and did not express its position on the dispute between Sonia and the two princes of the imperial capital.
The most powerful branch of the royal family outside the imperial capital, the Grand Duke of Donghai, and the political and economic group composed of the eastern economic center Donghai and neighboring provinces also remained silent.
As a result, even in the northern region, people are somewhat at a loss as to who the political situation in the imperial capital will be. It is not clear at all who the crown prince will be, and one can only wait and see how the dust settles in the end.
Even in the central and western regions, the republican movement that refused to accept imperial power was once again surging, and many former constitutional politicians joined in.
Lin Hanshan asked something else, but Lu Ming didn't hear it clearly.
At this time, Liu Xin came over with a glass of wine in his hand, and knelt down beside Lu Ming, saying with a smile: "Commissioner, I offer you a toast."
Obviously, many people are confused about whether to be close or distant with Commissioner Zhang, but it is still necessary not to make the relationship too bad. Judging from the current situation, who knows what Nanping will be like in the end
Lu Ming picked up his glass and clinked it with him. "Director Liu, after your case is solved, I will still talk to you about institutional reform. In the next few days, I will go around the police stations by myself."
"Of course, of course! It's just that you've worked so hard!" Liu Xin smiled happily, and in his heart he wanted to slap himself. It was unnecessary to offer this glass of wine. If this kind of guy really gained power in the future, he would rather quit and go home to be a rich man. Isn't it okay to not serve him
…
The special investigation team led by Quickson is working intensively to solve the case of the kidnapping of the seventh concubine.
Gao Baoshan went to Chengjiaji to meet with Cheng Dasui. The three brigade commanders who jointly sent a telegram asking Gao Baoshan and Cheng Dasui to restore peace also went to Chengjiaji in person. At the same time, Jiangnan Governor-General Chakson and Longbei Governor Ren Zhonglin both sent representatives to participate in the peace talks.
It seems that some kind of package solution must be reached this time.
At the same time, Zhang Yan, the governor of Cangyun County, Nanping, invited a Montenegrin military delegation to visit the county.
Cangyun County was very poor, but its people were strong and powerful and its population was large. Almost all the members of the Fifth Regiment of the Nanping Army were from Cangyun, so they were privately called the Cangyun Regiment.
In the conflict with Cheng Dasui, the Cang Yun Group has been at the forefront and has now temporarily returned to Cang Yun for rest and recuperation.
Their equipment is the most backward, but they are always deployed in the most dangerous positions. They eat the bitterest grass and suffer the most poisonous attacks.
Especially in the battle of Huaixin, if it were not for the timely support of the Black Mountain Army, the Cangyun Regiment would have suffered heavy casualties.
Zhang Yan, the governor of Cangyun County, invited the Black Mountain Military Regiment to visit, and together with the Cangyun Regiment, reached an agreement with the Black Mountain Brigade, whereby the Black Mountain Brigade would send military advisers at all levels to reorganize and train the Cangyun Regiment. This was almost a copy of the Black Mountain Brigade's political training system, with political training officers at all levels being appointed by officers of the Black Mountain Brigade, and nominally serving as military advisers.
County magistrate Zhang Yan's move obviously did not get Gao Baoshan's approval. The leader of the Cangyun Group was Zhang Yan's cousin and he obeyed Zhang Yan's orders.
In all these subtle changes.
Lu Mingze wanders the streets of Nanping every day.
Even the wonton stall owner at the intersection of Chuck Street knew Officer Zhang, who strolled around with two service soldiers and several police officers every day, because every evening, Officer Zhang would come to his stall to eat wontons.
After eating wontons, Commander Zhang would go to the magnificent Chuck Western Restaurant to eat fruit. His life trajectory was really weird.
Lu Ming had no choice. He could just eat fruit for his dinner and midnight snack, but not large or small fruits. He had to eat a meal. The two little girls liked to eat wontons. Otherwise, if they wanted to replenish their energy and increase their nutrition, the most economical thing would be to have the free-range grilled steak, but the two of them just couldn't get used to it.
That evening, when Lu Ming brought Xiaoguo and Daguo to eat wontons again, a black car suddenly stopped by the roadside.
The person who got out of the car was Chen Rongfu.
The wonton stall owner was a little surprised when he saw Chen Rongfu. He rubbed his eyes, and was so scared that his eyes widened. He took two steps back and almost fell to the ground.
Although his image was slightly different from that in the newspaper, the Secret Service license plate and his usual black Zhongshan suit uniform made him easily recognizable.
"Commissioner, haha, you are here after all!" Chen Rongfu's face was full of smiles, making people feel like spring breeze.
Lu Ming smiled and said, "Can you still hide where I am from Director Chen? What do you want to talk to me about?"
"Well, Commissioner, get in the car. We're not far away. I have something to discuss with you." Chen Rongfu's smile was a little mysterious. He looked at Xiao Guo and Xiao Guo, "Don't let them follow us. It's not convenient."
Without waiting for Lu Ming to speak, Chen Rongfu said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's a good thing!"
Lu Ming was a little embarrassed. "I'm worried about this. I have to take them back. They are so stupid. Don't let them get kidnapped! I don't feel comfortable if someone else sends them back."
Chen Rongyu smiled: "I understand, Commissioner, you..." He showed a tacit smile, thought for a moment, "Okay, let's go together, and tell them to wait."
Lu Ming nodded slightly. In fact, it was not far from here and he already had a vague idea of where to go, but safety came first after all, so he still brought the big and small fruits with him.
