Chapter 1289: Not a Problem

The woman is gone.

This is very bad.

Pipi stood in the living room looking at several gangsters, an expression of panic difficult to suppress appearing on his face, "I've been watching the main entrance, she never left from there!"

The gang leader nodded indifferently, "Then she's still in this apartment building." When he said this, he paused slightly, "But this has nothing to do with me, Pipi."

"I'll help you dispose of this corpse first. As for that woman, you figure it out yourself!"

Pipi was already somewhat terrified. This was like a child who had caused trouble, always hoping to drag someone into the water to bear it with him. He took a few steps forward, but was stopped by the gang leader's gaze, stopping at a distance of several steps away from him.

"I can give you money, give you six hundred—no, eight hundred dollars, help me find that woman!"

The gang leader looked at him with the eyes of looking at a fool, "Are you crazy or am I crazy?"

"I thought you were smarter than before by hanging out with foreigners, but it looks like you're still that lucky little character. You haven't changed at all, Pipi!"

"This is the city center, this is a high-end apartment, the people living here are all middle class, their social relationships are very complex."

"If we search room by room, do you know how many people I will offend because of this?"

""

"And none of us can guarantee whether that woman is in the hiding house, what she said to the people there, and whether they have already called the police."

"Don't say six hundred dollars, even one thousand, two thousand, I couldn't possibly agree!"

After he finished speaking, he turned his head and glanced at his subordinates, "Put the corpse down, let's go first."

The matter had already happened, and it looked like the situation was quite bad, so the gang leader didn't want to get involved.

If it were just to dispose of a corpse and then kill a woman, then he wouldn't care. He wouldn't offend the others in this apartment, and the others wouldn't take the initiative to find trouble for him.

But now, that woman ran away, which might attract the police. Once he is involved in this kind of case involving foreigners, I'm afraid he will cause big trouble!

As a local gangster, he also did some dirty work for the masters, and he knew the personalities of these masters too well.

The worse the things you handle for them, the faster they will turn on you later.

Especially this kind of case involving what is said to be a big figure in the Federation military, maybe he will commit suicide by fear of crime in the police station tonight to cover up the problems behind this case!

Although his subordinates didn't know what happened, they very smartly followed their boss's orders. The group walked toward the entrance. Pipi wanted to stop them, "I can give you more money!"

The gang leader's gaze had become somewhat cold, "If you don't want me to embarrass you right now, you'd better not do anything stupid!"

He said, pausing for two seconds, then pushed Pipi aside, and the group walked out in big strides, also carrying their worn-out blanket.

Pipi leaned against the wall watching these departing gang members, his legs were already trembling so much that he couldn't even stand!

A few minutes later, just as he arrived downstairs, the sound of police cars reached his ears.

His heart tightened, and he quickly brushed past the police. At least four or five police cars had arrived, a large number of police appeared here, and there were also some reporters.

Pipi quickened his pace, and after he reached the diagonal opposite side of the road, he looked back at the situation at the apartment.

He saw the male host's corpse being carried out, and also saw the female host wearing her husband's coat walking out of the apartment building under police protection.

He knew, things were troublesome.

He called Little Porter for the first time, but it didn't go through. Maybe Little Porter was still on the way back, or maybe he wasn't in the mood to answer the phone because of the murder, which made Pipi feel a chill seeping from the bottom of his heart.

He couldn't stay here. If he stayed any longer, who knows what the hell would happen!

The money Little Porter gave him, plus the five hundred dollars he got from the room, was enough for him to leave here, change his name, and live a wealthy life for a while.

Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth, turned around and left, without looking back.

Because this is the city center, and it is a high-end apartment, where middle and upper-class people live, the police station attaches great importance to it.

When they received the alarm call, they arranged for the best police officers in the police station to handle this case at the first time. When they saw the corpse that had been killed by shattering the back of the head, they knew this case was not small.

At least, it was breaking into someone else's house and killing the host, which is very bad in nature.

Regardless of whether this family has gone bankrupt, there will be very, very many people paying attention to this case, which put great pressure on the police station.

When the young woman arrived at the police station for the first time, the police chief arranged for a professional team to ask what happened.

The young woman honestly said everything. Of course, she didn't know who Little Porter was, only knowing that these people should be foreigners, and the person who played a key role among them was called Pipi.

The name Pipi is not very common even locally. Coupled with the young woman's description, soon, these police officers who are familiar with local forces had a short, small man who would smile flatteringly when seeing them appear in their minds.

Cunning is people's impression of him.

The police chief asked people to catch Pipi while returning to his office to make a phone call to the mayor.

Just right, the mayor also wanted to ask him what happened.

This case happened less than an hour ago, and the mayor had already heard about it. He really wanted to know what was special about this case.

"—The situation is roughly like this. Now we have encountered a problem, that is, the guy who committed the crime is very likely a foreigner."

The police chief's wording was very careful, "Recently, there have been many violent attacks against foreigners here. If the report comes out that a foreigner killed our own national at this time, will it continue to intensify this extreme opposition?"

The mayor also had a worried face when he heard this, "This is inevitable, and it might even set a bad example for those Federation people."

"Can the news be suppressed?", he asked.

The best way now is to handle this case coldly, not let the media leak it to the outside, and then find a way to let that Pipi, the middleman, sit on this case, then kill him as a murderer, then compensate the young woman with a sum of money, or simply let her shut up. This is the best way.

After thinking for a while, the police chief replied, "I don't know. Many reporters came to the scene, including some foreign reporters. Maybe the family that called the police wanted to put pressure on us in this way—"

"If there are foreign media reporting this, I don't know if it still makes sense for us to suppress the local media."

It's not just those resistance organizations hidden outside the city who hate Federation people, but also those Luli middle and high-level people living in the city center or mansions.

The arrival of Federation people destroyed the local capital ecological environment, causing many capital trees that were still budding or had grown branches but were still in their infancy to die prematurely.

Federation goods, Federation technology, Federation industry—these caused a huge impact and destruction to Luli local capitalists who are mainly based on the real economy. Their industries and wealth were all wiped out in the "international integration" advocated by the government.

Of course they would hate Federation people. The family that sheltered the young woman had a similar situation to them. They also operated two factories, and these two factories were also completely destroyed because of the arrival of Federation people and Federation goods.

It's just that besides the factories, their family also had rubber plantations. As an important raw material for industry, the rubber plantations kept them from bankruptcy, but life was definitely not good.

So when they heard that the murderer who created this tragedy was a Federation person, their suggestion to the young woman was to introduce more media to report this matter, and put pressure on the local government through extensive reporting to society, so that they could not fool the young woman and the public on this matter.

The young woman was almost raped just now, her husband died, and she almost got killed herself (she discovered the people Pipi brought). It was exactly when her brain couldn't keep up with her body, so she agreed subconsciously.

The family that sheltered her immediately used their connections to contact many local and foreign reporters, as well as reporters from newspaper offices founded by Federation people.

Federation businessmen are very shrewd. They know what business can make money, and they also know what business must be done even if it doesn't make money.

Newspaper offices are like this. It needs to compete with local media, and the style of Federation newspapers and magazines might not be liked by local people, but they must be run because this is a propaganda channel, a channel for speaking out.

Of course, there are also pure speculators.

Those local newspaper offices and magazine offices are easy to handle, but Federation media might not be so easy to handle.

And this matter will spread in society very quickly. Even if the media doesn't report it, it will become the focus of public opinion in the entire Luli in a short time.

The mayor had a headache. This situation is very troublesome, "Do you know what the identity of that Federation person is?"

The police chief shook his head and replied, "Not sure. The woman doesn't know who the foreigner who did it is, but Pipi knows."

The mayor was silent for a while, "If we can't make the media shut up, let the insiders shut up. Do you understand what I mean?"

"Now is the honeymoon period of our cooperation with the Federation. Don't let these things affect our cooperation. This is the most important strategic policy of the country at present."

"Whoever destroys the whole plan is a sinner of the country!"

The police chief immediately agreed, "I will require local newspapers and magazines to prohibit the publication of this news. I will also contact the newspaper office on the Federation side. Whether it is useful, I cannot be sure."

The mayor continued his words, "I will solve the Federation side. You find Pipi first, then figure out who did it, what their identity is, and then let Pipi shut up."

"Let's handle this case coldly for a period of time. As long as Pipi shuts up and doesn't reveal the identity of those foreigners, there will always be a way to solve it."

Foreigner is just a general term.

Those foreigners with special identities and backgrounds are foreigners, and those foreign tourists, and even foreigners who come to this poor place to make money are also foreigners.

No one stipulates that it must be those powerful foreigners who did these things. It could also be those foreigners without any special identity who did it.

When the time comes to be deported back to the Federation, it will have nothing to do with them.

The mayor analyzed the matter very thoroughly. Of course, the premise of all this is to catch Pipi first.

After putting down the phone, the mayor made a phone call to the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Luli. He needed to report this matter. It's not that he is responsible for his duties, but purely to make an insurance.

In case this matter is not handled well, he cannot afford this responsibility, and he also needs people at a higher level to bear this responsibility.

On the other side, after the police chief put down the phone, he immediately let all police stations and police move, find Pipi from the corners of this city for him!

Ten minutes later, whether it was police or gangsters, they were all looking for Pipi's whereabouts.

And at this time, Little Porter, who had returned to the military camp, also knew the development of the situation.

He paid close attention to this matter. This was the second time he considered himself to have killed someone.

And compared to the last time he had no feeling or consciousness of killing, this time the initiative of killing was stronger, the purpose was stronger, and the whole process was so clearly engraved in his mind that he couldn't help but pay attention to this matter.

He found someone to inquire, and immediately inquired about the result. The woman didn't die and called the police. Now everyone in the world is looking for Pipi and him.

After he was furious for a while, he dialed the number on the Federation side.

The one who answered the phone was his uncle. He could only, and only dared to call his uncle.

If he called his father or his grandfather the president, he believed these two people would send someone to break his legs!

The phone was connected quickly. Little Porter's uncle operated a company, a "lobbying company," which is also a company that almost every political family has, and more than one.

You can treat them as brokers, or as political consultants. In short, they seem to do everything, and it seems there is nothing specific to do.

Having a company, besides making some of his own things look more legal (need to go through the public-to-public process), can actually play a cover role.

"Calling me at this time, it shouldn't be good news, am I right?", Little Porter's uncle guessed the result as soon as he answered his call.

If it were good news, the phone should have been called earlier, or after working hours, rather than in the afternoon, not early or late.

At this time, many people are busy working, including people like them, who might not be in the office, socializing outside, busy.

In the cognition of Federation people, the afternoon is a very important work stage, an important time of the day. People will not contact others at this time to share joy.

Little Porter still called at this time, so it must be a sudden situation, and it has nothing to do with good news.

Little Porter was a bit speechless because his uncle guessed correctly. His short silence also made his uncle realize that he guessed correctly, "Don't tell me you're in trouble again!"

"Damn!"

"What the hell did you do again?"

Little Porter could only bite the bullet and say, "I killed someone."

The receiver was silent for a while, "What I regret most now is that I just answered your call, and then you told me that you went to Luli and couldn't stabilize, and you told me you killed someone?"

"Okay, then who did you kill?"

"Is it the comrade-in-arms who wants your ass, or the colleague who made you have deformed feelings?"

In his view, if Little Porter could kill someone in the military camp, the target might be a soldier.

For example, they were joking, playing around, joking with loaded firearms, and accidentally pulled the trigger and fired.

Or someone had an unpleasant time with him, his temper came up, and he took out his pistol regardless of the consequences.

This kind of thing is very difficult to handle. The dead is a soldier. The Ministry of National Defense and the military will not sell the face of the Presidential Palace, and the Presidential Palace cannot insert its hands into these two violent departments.

Little Porter said softly, "Not someone in the military camp, it's a local person in Luli—"

He told the whole process of the matter in detail, until his temper came up, he used the stone bedside lamp to smash the male host of the house to death, and then let his local friend handle these things, but the result was not handled well, and the streets were full of police.

Hearing that Little Porter didn't kill a Federation soldier, this made his uncle breathe a sigh of relief, "This might be the only good news I heard after answering your call. You didn't get hot-headed and kill a Federation soldier."

"This matter is not as bad as you think. I will arrange for someone to take the blame for you, but I will tell your father and your grandfather about this matter. After all, this matter must be solved by diplomatic means."

Find someone to take the blame, then deport back to the Federation for trial, operate here, handle it low-key, and this case will be fooled like this.

The powerful have plenty of means to treat justice like a bitch. This is not strange.

If a powerful person is caught in the Federation, sentenced, or even died, then it must not be because he committed a crime.

They formulated justice, not to judge themselves, but to use justice as a weapon to manage the bottom people and deal with their own kind.

Little Porter breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I now—"

"Do what you should do. I'm really tired of wiping your ass. When will you really grow up?"

His uncle complained and hung up the phone.

Obviously he was complaining, scolding, but Little Porter was unexpectedly relaxed. He lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling, and seemed not so nervous anymore. ===== CHAPTER 1290 =====
