"Huhuhu~"
The helicopter roared away and soon disappeared into the night.
Even when the helicopter's navigation lights were no longer visible, many tourists on the cruise ship were still waving their arms to thank them for relieving an explosion crisis on the cruise ship.
This so-called special service force, which came and went in a hurry, without any markings on its body, although its appearance time was very short, it left a very deep impression on people.
However, from beginning to end, they did not leave any information related to the unit number...
At this time, police cars with red and blue lights flashing surrounded the cruise ship ramp, and a large number of police officers were on site to maintain order.
The bearded captain, whose hands were handcuffed, no longer looked as arrogant as before.
With a livid face, he looked at the precious cultural relics that were transported one by one by the police from the cruise ship and arranged into a large exhibition area on the pier.
A rough count shows that the number of these cultural relics is at least seventy or eighty.
Painted female figurines from the Han Dynasty, official kiln porcelain from the Song Dynasty, famous calligraphy paintings from the Ming Dynasty...
There is a dazzling array of cultural relics, and each one is a treasure.
Several police officers are taking photos of these cultural relics for identification.
In addition to Chinese cultural relics, nearly half of them should be lost cultural relics from neighboring countries such as Tianzhu, South Vietnam, and Luzon.
Obviously, wherever the cruise ship passed, there were smugglers providing them with precious cultural relics from their countries, and then looking for buyers on the cruise ship to sell the stolen goods.
Wang Zhaoping looked excited at the cultural relics that were found one after another.
This harvest far exceeded his expectations!
In addition to the seven or eight cultural relics seized from the two mourning dogs, this is indeed a huge smuggling case of cultural relics!
Judging from the current situation, this is probably a transnational cultural relics smuggling and trading group that integrates smuggling, trading, and money laundering, and is extremely involved!
If we dig deep and pull out the carrots and bring out the mud, we may be able to gain more...
Sure enough, the information given by Brother Meng has never disappointed anyone!
This isn't an egg, it's just a dinosaur egg!
While he was excited, he was also a little scared.
If Brother Meng hadn't updated his intelligence in a timely manner, he and several of his colleagues would have recklessly boarded the ship without guns. Judging from the frenzy of this group of criminals who dared to detonate bombs, it would have been very difficult for them to escape unscathed.
Not to mention that once the bomb explodes, it will really destroy both people and money, and cause a lot of commotion.
Despite the fact that only one shot was fired throughout this operation, it seemed as if it was relaxed and calm.
But those were three military armed helicopters hovering in the sky!
Plus 30 fully armed special forces rappelling for a surprise attack!
The hidden gunmen in Brother Meng's intelligence were probably frightened when they saw this posture.
It's too late to shrink back, so how can you still rush upwards desperately?
Just rely on the small pistols in their hands that can't even penetrate other people's body armor?
But if it were ordinary criminal police officers like Wang Zhaoping, the deterrent effect would be completely different.
When people are trying to kill you, they won't care about your identity as a Chinese policeman.
"Team Wang, look quickly!"
At this time, Qin Xiaoru next to her suddenly pointed at another cultural relic being carried down the gangway and reminded.
Wang Zhaoping turned around and saw a square transparent glass cover.
In the glass cover, a white jade Buddha head with a yellow and white color and an ancient meaning is quietly fixed in it.
The Buddha's head is exquisitely carved, his eyes are slightly closed, and his shape is very different from ordinary Buddha statues.
However, upon closer inspection, the appearance and expression are slightly different from ordinary Buddha heads.
At least an ordinary Buddha head wouldn't be so...handsome?
Yes! Handsome!
Wang Zhaoping thought for a long time before he found the right word.
Ordinary Buddha statues are perfect, plump and broad-headed, but he actually thinks this Buddha statue is quite handsome?
Moreover, the first sight of this Buddha head gives people a sense of tranquility and peace, but after looking at it for a long time, I vaguely feel that the smile raised by the corners of the Buddha's head is a bit inconsistent.
With that handsome face, it looks a bit evil?
However, he is not an expert, and the design style of this Buddha statue is not Wang Zhaoping's focus.
"Is this the Buddha head we are looking for?!" He looked surprised.
No one can answer this question, after all, it still needs expert identification.
But Wang Zhaoping somehow felt that this must be what they had been looking for.
After all, it was Brother Meng who gave me the information...
at this time.
"Old Wang!"
Wang Zhaoping looked back and saw his director hurriedly coming with a few people, including several foreigners in black suits.
"Bureau Lu!"
Director Lu nodded, looking at the large number of cultural relics on site, as well as the handcuffed bearded man and the second officer, and then looked up at the group of foreign tourists on the cruise ship who were curiously watching.
I don't know whether I should be happy or have a headache.
"Ahem! Lao Wang, this is Mr. Brown, the British Minister." Director Lu coughed and pointed at a foreigner who was accompanying him.
At the same time, he also gave Wang Zhaoping a subtle wink.
Then he turned to Brown and said.
"Mr. Minister, this is Captain Wang Zhaoping of our Suzhou Criminal Police Team and the person in charge of this operation."
Wang Zhaoping looked at the bald little old man in front of him, and he probably knew the purpose of his visit, but he didn't have much worry in his heart.
"Mr. Brown! Please help me! These barbaric Chinese people not only forcibly landed on our ships without applying in advance, but also shot and arrested people indiscriminately, causing a huge commotion on the cruise ship!"
The point is, why are you saying I am a smuggler!
This is really a mouthful!
I am the noble Baron of Great Britain, how could I possibly commit such despicable acts as men stealing and women prostituted!
This is slander, this is slander!
I want to complain to the embassy and the international media about this barbaric frame-up and aggression!"
Seeing Brown, Steve felt like he saw his own life-saving straw, and immediately shouted for help in jabbering English.
He knew that his only way out at this time was with the embassy.
Brown glanced at him and frowned.
He looked at Wang Zhaoping and spoke in a somewhat stiff Chinese.
"Captain Wang, your armed men forcibly landed on a cruise ship flying our flag, fired shots on board, and arrested my distinguished Baron of Great Britain without reason.
On behalf of the Embassy of Great Britain, I express my strong dissatisfaction with this. This is a serious diplomatic incident!
You must immediately release our personnel, apologize, and give us a satisfactory explanation in Great Britain, otherwise we will never give up!"
Brown doesn’t care about the right or wrong and the reasons. Protecting the property and interests of its citizens is one of the main responsibilities of the embassy.
Let’s put a big hat on first. As long as Chinese officials don’t want to be labeled as damaging their international image, they have to be very cautious about this matter!
What's more, he and Steve already knew each other, so of course they knew each other's connections and wealth.
If I can make good friends with the other party through this matter, my retirement life for the rest of my life will be guaranteed...
"Explain? Ha!" Wang Zhaoping said with a cold face and was not polite at all.
"Didn't Mr. Brown see these illegally smuggled cultural relics in front of him? I think it is you who should give us an explanation.
Why are there so many smuggled cultural relics on your country’s cruise ships?
