In addition to the simplest reason why Nair came to ask for Baoling, there was another reason besides the simplest reason that the child had an accident to find the parents. Since it is suspected that the Russians did it themselves, the best way to force the Russians to admit it is of course to hold onto the current situation.

　　 how to get it?

　　 I still have to take Ying's father to get it!

　　The ability of the shogunate, or the ability of Tademon, of course, cannot directly detain the Russians. Now, under the city of Yokohama, after secret visits and investigations, it has been determined that there are no Russians, and only the embassy and the Russian merchant ship in the harbor have Russians in the entire Yokohama.

　　 More than two months ago, the Russian talent and the shogunate ended the war, and Zavojko and other talents were released by the shogunate a month ago. It is almost impossible for them to buy other foreigners in Yokohama, or win over compradors in Japan.

　　 In other words, the offender was either in the embassy or on the merchant ship. Chuemon intuitively believed that it was less likely to be in the embassy, ​​so the offender should be on a merchant ship.

　　 In this age, those who have the ability to directly detain Russian merchant ships and go on board for investigation are those who have taken the British. After all, only the phrase "I now speak to you with the strength of the British Empire" from Bao Ling's mouth can have real deterrence and lethality.

　　 If these words were replaced by Chuemon, it would be really useless and would not threaten anyone at all. You are a rotten Tokugawa shogunate. If you don't get beaten by others, you are already opening your eyes.

　　 Baoling served as the British Minister to the Qing, the Commander of the Far East Fleet, and the Governor of Hong Kong, as well as senior colonial officials and diplomats in the Yokohama settlement area of ​​Japan. In the British bureaucracy, they are already the top officials. However, there are still two doubts about whether to seize Russian merchant ships.

　　 After all, the Russian merchant ship was impounded just after the armistice. Does it seem that the British are not very honest?

　　 "The Russians are unreasonable first!" Probably after seeing Bowring's hesitation, McDonald, who is very friendly to the shogunate, made a suggestion.

　　 "That said..." Although he hated the Russians in his heart, Baoling was responsible for the British Empire's colonization and management of East Asia, and there were many things to worry about.

　　 "In fact, there is no need to seize anything, just a normal investigation." Chuemon knew that the powers were on the table, and they were more or less civilized and etiquette, and some circles were not easy to transcend.

　　 "What does your excellency mean?"

　　 "Do not investigate the Russian ships alone, pretend to investigate all the ships in the port." Chuemon gave a suggestion.

　　 A very simple suggestion. On the surface, the Russian envoy Putinya was attacked by a mob, and everyone in and outside of Yokohama was required to cooperate in the investigation. In fact, the rest of the ships are over with a simple look, and the main search is concentrated on the Russian ships. This will not only prevent the snake from being stunned by the grass, but also make Baoling perform.

　　 I take the British empire dignifiedly to take the lead. He is responsible and willing to come out to make peace. Although I hate the Russians, but in order to maintain the dignity of the powers, he investigates the case very carefully, the kind of meticulous.

　　 "Yes!" Bao Ling thought a little, then agreed.

　　 Then the British military and police from the brigade rushed to the dock and asked all the seven or eight merchant ships docked at the dock to cooperate in the search to search for the criminals who attacked Putinya. The British warships and French warships docked in the harbor, under the coordination of Bowring, caused smoke and fire to alert the harbor to prevent any riots.

　　 If something goes wrong, then the naval gun will wash the ground, very straightforward. In this way, it was quite similar to the same thing. Merchant ships of various countries had to cooperate with the investigation after receiving a message from their respective ministers.

　　En, the criminal did not find out, but found that several boats had accommodated a lot of Japanese wandering girls, the kind of low-cost and special industry practitioners that everyone knows. As soon as they saw foreign merchant ships and even warships docking, they let their turtles sway the boat to get up.

　　 Whether you are willing to disembark and be happy in the boat, it doesn't matter if you pull people on the boat, you can play as long as the money is in place. The country’s foreign trade has not yet been fully developed, but the reputation of the wandering girls has actually begun among foreign sailors.

　　 There are even merchant ships returning from Shanghai to the United States who deliberately come to Yokohama for one night and two nights, both for the purpose of replenishing coal and fresh water, and for the idea of ​​making two small dollars and wantonly happy.

　　 made the British military police who came to investigate slightly a sharp edge!

　　 If it is in peacetime, Bowring will take care of it, even if there are a few wandering girls on the merchant ship, there are also on special warships. But this time, it is obviously more important to investigate whether the Russians actually deceived and played with the British Empire. Baoling didn't care about it anymore, and ordered the officer to discipline the soldiers, so that they won't get any plums or decimation in the end.

　　 It's really downsizing, just ask you!

　　 Setting aside this matter, the British military and police finally searched the Russian merchant ship. Of course, the Russians can only obediently cooperate with the investigation, bring the British to investigate in person, or do the investigation for them, the Russians, this point must be given.

　　 Several trusted guards who were instructed by Baoling ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ also joined the search, especially paying attention to men over 1.8 meters. If there is a man of this height, stare at him first and don't startle him.

　　 The sailors on Russian merchant ships are actually the height of ordinary people. They are usually a little over one meter and six meters tall, and they are also one meter seven sharp, and a one-meter eighty man is really rare. It is so tall that it is possible to enlist in the czar's guards, and may even be selected as guard cavalry.

　　 But this is not a coincidence. A large man about eight meters and eight meters came on the ship ahead, who claimed to be a relative of the captain. Although the crew and sailors were puzzled, they could hear that he was a soldier who was captured in Kamchatka before. Now he was released and the army no longer wanted him. He finally rushed to Yokohama and had to come to take refuge in the captain, but he agreed with this statement. .

　　The reason is indeed appropriate and sufficient, and the sailors on the ship have no doubts. Now the British military and police brought a few officials from the shogunate aboard and searched the ship. They are still strange.

　　 Seeing the tall man who had changed his sailor outfit and was wearing obviously not fitting clothes, the British military police were a little uncertain, so they looked down at the tall man's shoes.

　　 That's right, it's a pair of big size men's boots!

　　 is your kid. Before the crew responded, four or five military police rushed up and pulled up. That tall Russian soldier does have two points of courage and reacts quickly, but it is a pity that two fists are hard to beat four hands. After not resisting for long, he became a prisoner of the British military police.

　　 After learning the news, Baoling and Chuemon hurriedly boarded the ship. The military police had already taken off the tall man's shoes. Compared with the shoe prints on the scene, they were really tight, and there was no difference at all.
