If you want to add a crime, why do you have no excuse?

Betty is a smart person. She didn't talk about Ding Zheng at the beginning, but directly splashed dirty water.

Does the person who wronged the gang need a reason?

Even if they didn't take their own things, they must have taken other people's things.

For the bad guys, there is no need to use aboveboard methods at all.

Ding Zheng, who had been pretending to be poor by the side, couldn't help admiring Miss Betty more and more.

have a future!

The admiral frowned when he heard this.

Although the Westernization Movement is important, he can't really help the docks just based on the other party's one-sided words.

The admiral was a little embarrassed: "Miss Betty, I really want to help you, but you have to show evidence!"

"Why is there no evidence?" Betty said, and then moved away and let Ding Zheng out, "This is my friend's pet, can it show how cruel the dock gang is?"

"Besides, the people who followed me are all witnesses!" Betty looked at Li Shangen, Leader Yang and others.

The translator briefly recounted the conversation between the admiral and Betty to Li Shangen and others.

Li Shangen has seen more troubles with Ding Zheng during this period of time, and finally mustered up the courage to stand up and say: "This is my monkey, and I am the witness. Put a poisonous hand on me and my pet, my pet has this injury in order to protect me!"

"It's just a beast. I'm afraid it can't be used as evidence. Our Qing Dynasty doesn't have any special laws for beasts!" the admiral said.

"And me!" Leader Yang also gritted his teeth and stood up. He knew that he had offended the dock gang, and it was useless to hide.

"Before, the dock helped Hall Master Liu Hu to come to our troupe to make trouble, and everyone in our troupe can testify!"

The admiral then nodded: "Since Miss Betty has evidence, I will arrest the person in charge of the dock gang for interrogation!"

The master next to him was sweating profusely, and he almost wanted to catch Chen Li and give him a hard pump.

"My lord, I'm going to arrest this gang leader of the pier!" He asked for his life automatically.

No please.

If he goes first, there may still be room for maneuver to reduce losses.

When the admiral personally leads a team to arrest people, it will really be over!

Although Chen Li is the leader of the Pier Gang, this master has been helping out at the Pier all these years.

He was no less worried than Chen Li when he said that he wanted to eliminate the Pier Gang!

Chen Li is his wife's older brother, and Chen Li gave him the money to go to Beijing for the exam!

Moreover, he, a Han master with no background, can be so stable in the Foshan yamen.

I don't know how much the dock helper helped.

Once you have tasted the benefits brought by power, it is really hard to give up.

However, although the situation is urgent now, the master is not too panicked.

He knew very well that these foreign ladies had no time or interest to stare at a criminal all day long.

As long as he can help the dock gang escape this hurdle and minimize losses, there is still a possibility of turning around.

The admiral understood what the master was thinking, he knew the relationship between the master and the wharf gang, and was willing to give the other party this face, nodded, and agreed: "Then go and come back quickly, today the officer must thoroughly investigate this matter, give Miss Betty An explanation!"

This master is very much in line with the admiral's wishes. After he came to Foshan, he helped a lot with his advice and suggestions.

"My lord is indeed wise!" Betty put a hat on the admiral after hearing the translation.

The admiral immediately nodded with a smile, and said: "Miss Betty is still responsible for justice. To be honest, I have only recently arrived in Foshan, and I am not familiar with everything here. I don't even know that there is such an arrogant gang. Fortunately, there is Betty. Miss reminded, thank you."

As he said that, he changed the topic: "I hope that I will have the opportunity to meet Miss Betty's father or master in person in the future. I highly respect and appreciate Western medicine. I am also studying advanced knowledge of Western medicine and other science and technology."

Betty smiled and opened her mouth to be perfunctory.

The yamen suddenly became friendly.

At this time, the people outside were also talking about it.

"Is what this lord said true or false?"

"This lord seems to have only come to Foshan in the past few days. Maybe it has nothing to do with the Wharf Gang?"

The crowd fell silent for a moment.

Suddenly, a shout sounded!

"My lord, I want to report to the police!"

"I also want!"

With the second shout, the people outside the yamen were directly set ablaze.

...

"My lord, I am a wronged lord!" Chen Li cried out his grievances with tears, "I didn't do anything to that monkey at all, my lord!"

"We did go to the theatrical troupe that day, but we didn't make trouble at all, we didn't even watch the play, and we didn't provoke these foreigners, my lord!" Chen Li cried hoarsely.

Liu Hu, who was kneeling beside him, also had a frightened expression on his face: "Yes, my lord, I didn't do anything to that monkey before, but someone injured me and my brothers in order to protect that monkey!"

Both of them looked at Li Shangen and the others with deep hatred on their faces.

They had never seen such a blatant false accusation.

However, no matter how much Liu Hu and Chen Li shouted, no matter how much they cried, it was useless.

It is not only Ding Zheng, Li Shangen and the others who want to trouble them now.

Instead, a large number of people in Foshan chose to add insult to injury.

And there are foreigners watching.

"Master! What do you think?" the admiral said to the young master beside him, who looked a bit sinister.

The master frowned for a long time, finally sighed, and leaned against the admiral's ear: "I hope that the lord will forgive me, and I hope that the lord can give the villain a face, but if you don't go too far, the villain will let Chen Li, the gang leader, take all the blame. Let's quell the anger of the people!"

"Of course there is also the anger of several foreign ladies."

The admiral thought for a moment when he heard the words, then nodded and immediately said: "Yes! Then arrange it quickly. For the sake of your loyalty, I will allow you this honor."

"Thank you, my lord!"

The master bowed down and immediately went to arrange related matters.

Chen Li is also a ruthless person.

After listening to the master's words, I knew that there was no other way.

Immediately reluctantly agreed.
