Halson's warning to Li Xiaofeng was exactly the same, but in fact he was very worried about it, so after someone left, he immediately became vigilant and forced all the staff of the consulate to come back, strictly ordering them not to act rashly.

But is this useful? It's not very meaningful, especially as warnings and orders like Halson have been issued many times, and almost no one takes this word to heart.

Everyone should eat, drink what they should drink, and go out to have fun as they should be. They were so angry that the Consul General was so snatched. But it was useless to jump around, because two or three days passed, nothing happened. This made everyone further despise Halson.

Basically, most embassy staff think that their boss is a coward, and they actually take the polar bear's mouth seriously. Just think about it! The empire that the sun does not set, who dares to provoke? A mere polar bear who is half dead wants to scare them with his teeth and claws, but there is no door!

Based on this idea, the staff of the British consulate increasingly did not take Li Xiaofeng's threat seriously, and even kept mocking and ridiculing a certain immortal behind his back, almost making up a song to humiliate someone.

But on the fourth day, when they were preparing to go out for fun as usual, the tragedy happened. At 8 o'clock in the morning, Halson received the first bad news. The chef who went out to buy ingredients was snatched by someone. Not only did the money be lost, but the person was beaten to death.

"I protest!" Halson said these three words without thinking, but the person on the other end of the phone did not accept his style at all. He said in a formulaic manner: "We regret Mr. Chef's experience... Mr. Halson, please go to the Red Cross Hospital immediately to pay the admission fee..."

"Where is the murderer!" Halson shouted at the top of his voice.

"We will slowly detect it!"

Halson slapped the table and said, "I don't want to listen to nonsense like slow detection. Our civil servants have suffered personal injury. Your country must give a reasonable explanation!"

The person on the other end of the phone choked him back with a word: "Have you applied for protection?"

"It's nothing to do with protection!" Halson yelled angrily, but the other party didn't accept his tricks at all: "Then I can only say I'm sorry. We have repeatedly warned you that the situation in Moscow is quite unstable. Without our protection, you'd better not leave the embassy and consulate. If any accident occurs, all the responsibility will be held responsible!"

Halson wanted to continue to argue, but the other party didn't give him this opportunity at all. He hung up the phone with a click, which made Halson throw the phone on the spot. However, falling down the phone could not solve any problem. The obvious thing was that the chef was beaten was just the beginning, and it might even be just a small warning!

When Halson thought of this, he felt his brain hurt. It was not just a chef who was away. There were a lot of staff outside, not to mention that everything happened. Two or three similar accidents were enough for him to suffer.

"No! You can't wait so passively!" Halson told himself that he could not wait for death and had to regain the initiative. What should he do? Call the ambassador and ask him to put pressure on the Bolsheviks? It seemed useless.

Just as Halson was trying his best to think, the phone on the table rang again, "I am Halson. What! Why do you arrest our citizens? I express my strongest indignation!"

This time, he was not robbed or beaten, but he simply joined the call. The charge was for disturbing public order. It turned out that several of his staff members drank too much last night, and they started arguing with another group of people in the bar and were beaten up in a gang.

Of course, being beaten up by a group is not the most unlucky one. What's even more unlucky is that all of them were squatting in the number room, but they were beaten up and were at ease with the murder. When Halson hurried to the scene and saw several subordinates who were even more than Zhutou Three, he was surprisingly angry!

"I strongly protest your actions! Why arrest our citizens, why not treat them with injuries, and where is the murderer?!"

The leading worker captain looked at the Consul General who felt too good and looked at him disdainfully. He said contemptuously: "What are you talking nonsense? The people who provoke trouble are yours. At that time, everyone in the bar could prove that yours was yours first provoking and yours first. Being polite, yours was yours to fight... Also, this matter is not over. Yours is also hindering public affairs and attacking police. Our country's judicial organs have decided to prosecute them!"

Halson shouted: "They are diplomats and are protected by the Vienna Convention!"

The captain curled his lips contemptuously, "I know, but we have asked, none of them have complete diplomatic immunity, that is, they must be responsible for their actions!"

Halson was so angry that his teeth were itchy. This was really his weakness. The people who had the accident (including the chef) were just low-level staff members and did not enjoy complete diplomatic immunity. If the Russians were determined to cause trouble, he would have no way to do it.

"Then what does it mean to ask me to come!" Halson asked gritted his teeth.

"I'll let you know!" said the captain seriously, "You British citizens have violated the law on Russian land, so you must stammer!"

Halson said angrily: "Then I ask for bail!"

The captain sneered: "I'm sorry, the Special People's Court has given instructions on this and these prisoners are not allowed to be released on bail!"

"you!"

Halson was almost vomiting blood. The reason why he chose to be bail was that he got the person out first. As long as he returned to the Consulate General, he would not need to go to the Consulate General to catch people. Anyway, the Russians could not rush into the Consulate General to arrest people.

But unexpectedly, people had been on guard against this move for a long time and were not allowed to be released on bail at all. It was obvious that they had to go through the court and repair those pig heads.

"I protest!" Halson could only continue to play the old tune again, "I want to ask your person in charge to complain to you. You are persecuting British citizens and causing diplomatic disputes. You have to pay the price for it!"

But no one took his protest seriously, so you should protest! At that time, Halson walked out of the police station in anger. He was about to go to the city Soviet or go directly to the Bolshevik Party Committee. He believed that only by directly communicating with the Bolsheviks’ heads and minds could the matter be properly resolved.

But what surprised him was that the car parked outside and waiting for him disappeared. He remembered it very clearly that before getting off the bus, he had already explained to the driver and was waiting for him here. But now, where are the people?

Halson looked around, left and right, but couldn't find his car. This damn driver, where did his grandmother die?

Halson would never have thought that he got off the car and Mark Wei sent someone to hijack his car. After knocking the driver unconscious, he was already on the way out of the city in the car.

"I expressed the strongest protest. There are so many accidents that have happened to our diplomats in recent times. My car disappeared in the blink of an eye. Can you give me a reasonable explanation!" Halson could only ask the workers to continue protesting.

"How come a car disappears if it doesn't happen? Maybe someone will leave if something urgent!"

"How is that possible!" Halson was going crazy.

"How is it impossible! Maybe your driver needs to do urgent matters! Take a step back and say that whether it is a car or a person, if you want to report missing, you have to wait 48 hours. It has only been a few dozen minutes now, so you should report the case in two days!"

Anyway, Halson was touching the gray nose, and he stomped his feet and left angrily, but he definitely didn't notice it. Looking at his back, the worker picket captain smiled very lewdly and coquettishly.

Why? Because the bitterness that Halson tasted now is just an appetizer. Li Xiaofeng wanted to kill this guy well, but how could he stop having sex without tidying up his blood?

So next, Mr. Halson's journey was not smooth at all. First, he was thieves away from his wallet while squeezing the tram and was driven out of the car in shame by the ticket seller. Then, when he walked on the 11th route to the city Soviet, he encountered a robber, and his coat, hat, watch and other valuables were stolen, and he was also quite frightened.

Finally, when he arrived at the city Soviet, the Consul General, who was still a gentleman when he went out, was so embarrassed that he was no better than a beggar.

"I am the British Consul General, I ask to see your Chairman!" Halson, who was trembling with cold, protested angrily to the guard, but the old man in charge did not believe this guy at all. He had a conscience. He had never seen a beggar-like consul general, and he refused to let go or communicate.

"I express strong indignation and protest!"

In the end, Halson met with the Moscow Soviet Chairman, Mularov. Although this guy did not control the Moscow Party Committee as he wished, the city Soviet Chairman also satisfied him very much.

In fact, he knew that Halson was coming early, and someone had notified him in advance and specifically told him to treat the Consul General who liked to protest well. However, when Mularov saw Halson's embarrassment, he was still shocked and expressed his great admiration for the way a certain immortal was tormenting.

"What are you going to protest? Why don't I understand?" Mularov asked knowingly.

Halson sniffed, trying hard to prevent the clear snot from flowing out of his nose. For a gentleman like him, it was too rude. He said in a muffled voice (the nose was blocked): "I protest you..."

After just one head start, Halson couldn't continue to say anything. He really couldn't think of what to protest? Protesting his own experience? People would directly say that he was asking for it. Who told you not to apply for protection? I have told you that Moscow is not peaceful, who can I blame for being stolen?

Of course, this is not the most important reason why Halson can't continue. The fundamental reason why he can't continue is that his nose is itchy and sneezing.

Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Halson sneezes three times in a row, so comfortable and brilliant! Anyway, the snot bubbles were covered in his face, so it was so disgusting.

Even Mularov on the opposite side couldn't take a look, so he could only signal the secretary to make a roll of paper for the guy. After finally finishing the personal cleaning work, he said: "I sympathize and regret for your personal experience, but I must also remind you that the experiences of you and other consulate staff can be completely avoided. If you can apply for protection in time, how could so many unpleasant things happen? So, I think you must learn from your lessons, it's not too late to make up for the loss!"

Halson was scolded in a daze, and then he was fooled by Mularov. When he returned to the consulate in a carriage provided by the Soviets, he realized that he was - Damn. Am I being fooled?

However, Halson could not take care of so much at this time. After a lot of trouble this day, he fell on the hospital bed with shock. However, falling ill may not be a good thing, at least he would not have to be harassed by the unlucky news behind him.

The British Consulate General in Moscow suffered a heavy blow on this day. 50% of the staff went away and disappeared from the plains. The other 50% either stayed in the Bolshevik prisons or in the hospital, and only a few three-legged cats were left to continue to jump around.

Things got a big deal without saying that, and the British expressed strong protests without surprise, but their protests were boycotted and sarcastic by the Russians - they had warned you long ago that Russia is not peaceful. Don't run around, apply for protection early, are there such a thing?

Anyway, if you say that your husband is right, your mother is right, the British feel wronged after suffering losses, but the Russians are not convinced! Whoever lets you be yin behind your back, the Yin people must be aware of being yin.

However, no matter what, this matter has to be resolved, but who will clean up this mess? It should be said that no one is willing to take over, and the people of the People's Committee of the Diplomatic Affairs are not fools. They know that someone is causing trouble, so how could they join in? Last time someone made Trotsky unable to come to Taiwan. What if he gets angry and slapped in the face again this time? Moreover, even if the People's Committee of the Diplomatic Affairs is capable of properly solving this matter, they are reluctant to do it. Why? They are unwilling to help someone wipe their butts!

So, this matter was dragged on, and both sides kept playing the ball, but who would have thought that the mentor suddenly issued an order and appointed Qi Qilin to solve the problem. To be honest, there were many people who were gloating at that time.

Even Qiqilin himself found it difficult. Although this mission is just a cover, if this problem cannot be solved well, it will greatly affect his prestige in the People's Committee of the Diplomatic Affairs.

"Comrade Andre, can you let those British people go?" After seeing a certain immortal, Qiqilin directly mentioned it straight to the point, "It is not appropriate to have too much trouble with the British for the time being, the impact is very bad!"

How could Li Xiaofeng agree? In his opinion, the British were asking for trouble first. He was fighting back in self-defense. Why did he let him release others?

"Why can't I understand what you mean?" The guy said with a deliberately frown, "What does the disappearance of the British have to do with us? I have to say that this is a slander and slander against us, and we must be strongly resisted!"

Qi Qilin smiled bitterly in his heart. The fool knew that this was done by you boy. You threatened the Consul General twice, and then something really happened. You dare to say that there is no connection!

"Comrade Qiqilin," Li Xiaofeng was a little dissatisfied, "Look at what you said, to warn the British that it is responsible for their safety, and it is completely a kind heart. How can it be said to be a threat? I will never agree with this! The facts have proved that it is because they regard our kind reminder as an indifferent ear that caused the cup to happen! The fundamental reason is their own carelessness!"

The corners of Zichlin's mouth twitched twice, and he was extremely impressed by someone's ability to talk lies with his eyes open. You can be even more nonsense. Nowadays, in Russia, you are the one who dares to find awkward with the British.

"But we are always responsible for these cases, right?" Qiqilin could only try to persuade someone from a different perspective, "It's not a good thing to put so many kidnapping cases on the case file, right? We always have to catch the murderer!"

"Where is the murderer?" Li Xiaofeng snorted contemptuously, "Comrade Qiqilin, why are you sure that these cases must be kidnapped? Why can't they be missing? I must remind you that there is no evidence to prove that they were kidnapped. I even suspect that these people are hiding and are secretly engaged in anti-Soviet espionage!"

Qiqilin opened his mouth, but he found that he had no words at all. Someone's meaning was very clear, that was to fight the British to the end. Then how could he be mixed with the poor?

After a moment of silence, Qiqilin sighed: "Comrade Andre, don't make it difficult for me to do it well! This matter has a bad impact!"

Li Xiaofeng just laughed, "Comrade Qiqilin, they are all class comrades, how could I make things difficult for you? In fact, I am the British and I am the only one who can do our best to do our work better!"

Qiqilin was a little confused and asked, "What do you mean?"

Li Xiaofeng spread his hands and said, "This is not simple. The reason why you can come to Moscow is because I am in trouble with the British. If this trouble is solved soon, what reason do you have to stay?"

Qiqilin's eyes lit up, as if someone was saying something was right! He came on the pretext of dealing with diplomatic disputes. Without the dispute, he still stayed in Moscow. Isn't that suspicious? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look up at someone - those who have been favored by mentors these days are indeed all human beings!

If Li Xiaofeng knew what Qi Qilin was thinking now, he would probably laugh out loud. Yes, Qi Qilin came with the excuse of mediating a dispute, but this does not mean that it was recognized by the mentor. It can only be said that it was just right. To put it bluntly, someone took this excuse to avenge his personal revenge!
