Chapter 618:
“No! This is impossible! Those are not mine!” Lu Wanli shouted.
Everyone is dumbfounded.
He did not really smuggle these goods.
He just asked his subordinates to carry timber over to do business.
“I am falsely accused!” Lu Wanli shouted.
But the arrest captain doesn’t care about this.
He was ordered to intercept and arrest whoever was in charge if they ever found anything illegal according to Ning Shu’s instructions.
Since the evidence is already there, he does not care what Lu Wanli shouts and claims.
The arrest captain waved his hand and ordered:” Stop the shipment first and then we shall take everyone away.”
Hearing the words of the arrest captain, Lu Wanli frowned.
If this is imputed upon him, he will definitely be arrested.
Then he may stay in jail for several days.
Although after entering jail, he can use his connection and come out sooner, but he cannot afford to dishonor his identity!
If that happens, it will be embarrassing!
Therefore, Lu Wanli winked at Lu Hua, who was mainly responsible for the transportation of the goods today.
Then Lu Hua immediately said loudly: “It’s me! I put the prohibited items on the boat. I should be the one held responsible for it! But I don’t know that it contained these things! Someone just asked me to bring them for him!”
“Right! He is the one responsible for this transportation.” Lu Wanli on the side also nodded.
Hearing this, the arrest captain frowned and waved: “Handcuff him too and take them back for interrogation together.”
Seeing that he hadn’t let him go, Lu Wanli immediately said: “Police comrade, I am really falsely accused. I only want to transport some timber for business. These things are their own things and I don’t know this.”
“These illegal items really have nothing to do with me. I ask to make a phone call to prove my innocence.”
Hearing what Lu Wanli said, the arrest captain originally did not want to bother and wanted to refuse directly.
But he saw Lu Wanli’s slightly exposed wristwatch.
As well as a plaque made of pure gold on his chest.
Others may not know it.
But the arrest captain who is not a low-ranking captain, definitely recognizes it.
That wristwatch is worth hundreds of millions.
Most importantly, people who own that pure gold plaque are very rare in China.
Only those who are of high status, such as the patriarch of a big family, can have these things.
If Ning Shu was here, naturally, he would not have cared.
After all, she is backed by the Ning family.
He has nothing to be afraid of.
But although he is a subordinate of Ning Shu, he is just an arrest captain after all.
Offending this kind of person with a high status entails risks.
After weighing the pros and cons, the arrest captain waved his hand.
He instructed his subordinates to let Lu Wanli make a call.
Lu Wanli quickly took out his mobile phone and several phone calls were made.
He began looking for his connections.
As the patriarch of the Shanghai Lu family, although Jiangbei is not his territory.
There are still some reliable connections in Jiangbei.
“O…okay, thank you, brother…” Lu Wanli called for half a minute and then smiled.
After Lu Wanli hung up the phone, soon there came a call to the cellphone of the arrest captain.
Hearing the instructions over the phone, after frowning, the arrest captain waved his hand and said, “Let go of him.”
Immediately, Lu Wanli and Ye Feng were released.
Lu Wanli found a person in authority in the special police force.
And the call he received just now was from the superior of the arrest captain.
Knowing the identity of Lu Wanli as well as his status, he still has to let go of him as he is just an arrest captain.
And Lu Wanli also let his subordinate Lu Hua come out and take the blame
So if he doesn’t let go of Lu Wanli, he might be in big trouble himself.
So the arrest captain could only directly let Lu Wanli and Ye Feng go.
After getting released, Lu Wanli and Ye Feng immediately smiled and walked toward the arrest captain.
Lu Wanli gave a signal to Ye Feng
Ye Feng immediately handed a cigarette to the arrest captain.
However, the arrest captain directly shook his head with a cold face and expressed his rejection.
Ye Feng looked displeased and withdrew the cigarette.
Lu Wanli did not care either.
He said directly: “Police comrade, this matter should be cleared. Those illegal items really have nothing to do with us. We are only doing business and transporting some timber.”
“You can take my subordinate and dispose of it as you like, but I can carry my shipment right?”
Lu Wanli originally thought that the arrest captain would speak politely after having known of his relationship with his superior and that he would promise him to release his goods ashore.
However, he did not expect him to say: “When it comes to highly dangerous items such as explosives, nothing on board with it is allowed to go offshore. These things shall go back to wherever they come from!”
“As for the people smuggling the illegal items, they will be detained for interrogation first. And then they will be sent back to Shanghai for interrogation!”
Hearing this, Lu Wanli tightened his brows.
Then he looked straight at the arrest captain.
The arrest captain also directly looked at Lu Wanli.
The arrest captain looked not intimated at all.
He was not just following the rules.
More importantly, he was ordered by Ning Shu.
The people can be released.
But the shipment must stay on the ship!
