Siheyuan's Journey Through the Ages

Chapter 109 The opening performance

"Thank you very much, but I don't think things will develop to that point. Just say a word for me later." Ma Qing expressed great admiration for the white lady's sense of justice.

Not long after, the door of the jewelry store was roughly pushed open, and a young man with a middle-parted hair and wearing a Hawaiian-style shirt walked in arrogantly, followed by two men in police uniforms.

"Who wants to rob the gold shop? I want to see who is so brave." After the man said this, he threw the hem of his shirt behind him, revealing the gun at his waist.

"A Le, you're here." When Qian Kun saw the person coming, he felt like he had found his backbone and hurried to greet him. The person was Qian Kun's close friend, He Le, a plainclothes policeman from the Kowloon Police Department.

Qian Kun pulled He Le aside and said, "A Le, you are here. This kid stole my necklace. You should scare him and give the necklace back to me." Qian Kun pointed at Ma Qing and said.

He Le looked around and found that everyone seemed calm. It didn't look like a robbery at all. Moreover, Qian Kun had just asked him to come over in a private capacity on the phone, so there must be something fishy going on.

"Tell me what's going on. If you try to fool me, I won't be polite." He Le Neng is a plainclothes policeman at the Kowloon Police Station, so he is not stupid.

Seeing that he couldn't fool him, Qian Kun told him everything about Ma Qinglai selling the necklace. He ended with the same words: "Ah Le, we'll add 1% to make it 1%. You'll get and I'll get in US dollars."

He Le couldn't help but be tempted, this was a huge sum of money from the boss, but he still asked, "Are you sure you fled to Hong Kong and don't have anyone to protect you here?"

"Don't worry. This kid speaks very broken Cantonese. He must have come to Hong Kong from the north not long ago. He ran out of money and had to pawn his ancestral property." Qian Kun assured, patting his chest.

He Le suddenly felt bolder. He originally thought that anyone who could come up with such a valuable necklace must have some background and be difficult to deal with. After all, in Hong Kong, you can only offend the rich.

Since he is a northerner, I can take advantage of him as I please once he arrives in Hong Kong. I can just scare him and get the money. I am lucky today, He Le thought to himself.

He Le puffed out his chest and raised his head, walked up to Ma Qing and said, "You're the one who robbed other people's things, right? You're so brave. What's your name? Take out your ID card." As he spoke, his voice became louder and louder.

"Sir, don't be so loud. It might scare the lady next to you." Ma Qing said this in English. Then he took out his newly obtained ID card from his pocket, handed it over, and gave Elizabeth a wink.

"Ma is my friend. He didn't steal the necklace. I can testify for him." Elizabeth also spoke in English.

He Le was in a state of panic. What the hell was going on? Wasn't it said that he was an undocumented refugee to Hong Kong? Wasn't it said that he was unfamiliar with the place in Hong Kong? Why were there foreigners involved? I was just a military uniform. I couldn't keep this under control.

He Le was torn between his conscience and his desires at this time. He mechanically took Ma Qing's ID card and took a look at it. This ID card was really new. It wasn't even a month old. No, it wasn't even a week old. But it was indeed a Hong Kong ID card.

Just as He Le was about to speak, the door of the jewelry store was pushed open again, and lawyer Liang Haowen made a brilliant appearance. Liang Haowen, carrying a briefcase, looked inside the door and saw Ma Qing waving at him, so he hurried over.

Liang Haowen saw a policeman standing in front of his client, so he quickly inserted himself between the two of them, took out his business card and said, "I am Mr. Ma Qing's lawyer. From now on, I will represent him in all matters. Please tell me if you have anything to say."

"..." He Le thought, where the hell did you come from? How come this northerner has a lawyer? What on earth is this Qian Kun doing?

He Le was about to speak when Liang Haowen interrupted him, "Excuse me, who are you, which police station are you from, and what is the purpose of your questioning of my client?"

"Don't get me wrong, it's just a routine check. Someone called the police so I went to take a look. I think there is probably some misunderstanding here. Why don't you explain it clearly and I'll be a witness." He Le felt that now that there were foreigners and lawyers around, he should wait and see and not get himself involved.

He Le returned the ID card to Ma Qing, then turned around and blamed Qian Kun, "What the hell are you doing? He's a foreigner and a lawyer. He's what you call a refugee to Hong Kong with no identity. Are you kidding me? If I'm affected by this incident, I'm telling you, I'll make you pay for it."

Qian Kun was also a little confused at this time. The development of this script seemed a little wrong. Why was it heading in a direction that he couldn't control? What should he do? What should he do? How should he solve this problem?

At this time, Ma Qing was also explaining the whole story to Liang Haowen, causing Liang Haowen to complain, "I'm not saying anything bad about you, Ma Qing, you're too impatient. I told you I'd help you find a buyer, but you insisted on doing it yourself. Now this has happened. How troublesome."

"I'm really anxious. The money in my pocket is almost gone. I don't even have money to stay in a hotel. I go to your law firm every day to urge you, but every time you say you're almost there, but there's no follow-up." Ma Qing explained with a wry smile.

"You blame me for this. I'm not a jewellery seller. It's not easy to sell such valuable jewellery." Liang Haowen explained unhappily.

"No, it's all my fault. I lost my temper. It's okay to be petty, but what should we do about this matter now?" Ma Qing lost his temper and quickly admitted his mistake.

"It's okay, this is easy to solve." Liang Haowen glanced at Elizabeth next to Ma Qing, "You are really good at sucking up to others. As soon as you arrived in Hong Kong, you clung to my thigh, and now you are clinging to a foreign thigh. Are you the reincarnation of a koala?"

The lawyer was smart, and he saw through Ma Qing's tricks at a glance. "I'm forced to do this by life, Brother Liang. Look, this world is so dark. I'm a newcomer, and if I don't cling to the good guys, I'm afraid I'll be eaten to pieces by those bad guys in Hong Kong."

Liang Haowen sighed and was about to say something when the door of the jewelry store opened again and an old man in a Tang suit walked in with two assistants.

Ma Qing saw Qian Kun and Old Man Zhao welcoming the old man like two lackeys, and a few people were whispering to each other. Ma Qing thought, the actors have appeared one after another, and the show has officially begun.
