Chapter 1178： Self-cleaning

After going downstairs, Shi Lei sat opposite the deputy director.

Seeing Shi Lei's expression was a little weird, the Deputy Director couldn't help feeling a little worried.

He asked, "Mr. Shi, what was the result of the communication?"

"The Australian side agreed to extend the time limit," Shi Lei said to the deputy director with a strange look.

The deputy director Man Man thought that Shi Lei would say that communication had no effect, and the British certainly did not want to go to this muddy water. After all, the other party was a huge consortium, and the British royal family had to consider the consequences.

In particular, after all, the royal family is only a symbol of the British monarchy, and it is only a symbolic meaning to the country. The political impact is not as great as expected.

Therefore, he is ready for Shi Lei to say that his British friends are helpless.

But I did not expect that Shi Lei did not get involved with the consortium, but instead brought another news, and actually said that the Australian side agreed to extend the time limit.

"Ah? Mr. Shi, what do you say?"

"I said that the Australian side agreed to extend the time limit. On the consortium side, my friend said that he might not be of much help, but also promised to communicate with that consortium in the past."

The deputy director froze. He looked at Shi Lei with a doubt on his face, and said, "Mr. Shi, we can't be kidding, how do you know about Australia ..."

Shi Lei smiled and said, "That's it. After I called, I hadn't had time to talk to the other party about the consortium's problem. The other party told me that he already knew that I had encountered difficulties in China. Then, he just told After the Australian President's Office communicated by phone, the other party decided to give the British royal family a face. Oh, by the way, my friend is a foreign relative of the British royal family, Mr. Crawford Scola of the Duke of Scola. He is now an official of the City Hall of London, England ... "

"I know that the mayor of London, a member of parliament, and the best candidate for the next Labour party. With the election of Labour and the Conservatives, Labour is on the rise, and it is very likely that Crawford will be the next one because of Labour's victory. British Prime Minister. "

The Deputy Director couldn't help but interrupt Shi Lei's words and recounted Crawford's situation.

Shi Lei nodded and said, "He has been actively communicating with Australia since he knew about me. He finally obtained the approval of the other party and promised to extend the time limit for solving the case. He also promised not to publish the case. To the public. "

The deputy director said in doubt: "You and Crawford ...?"

Shi Lei smiled and said, "I met by chance."

The deputy director seemed to suddenly think of something. He patted his thigh and said, "Yes, you have a good relationship with Li Qianhaocheng. You are also partners. Their family and the Scola family have always been good ..."

Shi Lei nodded, but shook his head again, and said, "I knew Li Qian at Mr. Scola's house. The reason why I knew Mr. Scola was for another reason. I won't say more about that. This time, he would help because Song Ziyan found him after he learned about me. I hope he can come forward and talk to the Australian side, at least enough time for our police to investigate a real result. "

"Secretary Song?" The deputy director gave a slight hesitation, and then he remembered Shi Lei's important role in what happened before the Song family.

At the same time, an inexplicable vigilance made the Deputy Director stand up and said, "This incident was beyond my imagination, and I must report to my superiors immediately. Mr. Shi, I'm sorry, although Secretary Song helped this time. We are busy, but he has contacts with foreign politicians, this ... "

Shi Lei hurriedly interrupted the deputy director's words, saying: "Song Ziyan and Crawford should have known each other very early. They were friends. As far as I know, they became friends because of their common hobby for Chinese painting .I think he will never have anything to do with political events outside the country. And Mr. Scola told me very clearly that after Song Zi extended to Britain, he never had any contact with him, he did n’t even know Song Ziyan lives in London now. If it wasn't for my business and it had a relationship with Australia, he would never go to Scola. At the same time, Song Ziyan also asked me to bring me back. If the country is not assured, He can return to his country at any time ... "

The deputy director nodded, of course he was willing to believe what Shi Lei said, but he still had to report on this matter.

The deputy director who left hurriedly stood at the door of Shi Lei's villa and called his superior.

After briefly explaining the situation, the superior told him that he would immediately contact the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs to confirm this. For Song Ziyan's problems, he will also report to the secretary of Jiangdong Province. How to deal with and arrange the details depends on the results of the report from the secretary and the central government.

After returning, Shi Lei said, "I know that after the Australian side promised to delay, I told Mr. Scola about the consortium. This consortium did maintain a very good relationship with the royal family, but with Scola Mr.'s political position is different. They support the Conservative Party. "

The deputy director nodded and said, "This is also helpless. After all, as Scola, as the duke's family, the Crawford became the spokesperson for the Labour Party. This has always conflicted with the royal interests. . However, this is also an important opportunity for good communication between the British Royal Family and the Labour Party. Of course, this has nothing to do with us. I understand that it is not easy to count on Crawford to help communicate with the consortium. "

Shi Lei added: "Mr. Scola did not refuse. He personally has some relationship with the other person, so he promised to help and ask. But in terms of the results, he could not guarantee it."

In fact, Shi Lei didn't tell Crawford about this at all. He was very clear that it was impossible to count on Crawford. He originally called Crawford and only hoped that he could help communicate with the Australian side.

As Britain ’s most sought-after political star, Crawford is very likely to become the leader of the Labour Party, and the probability of Labour winning the next election is greatly increased. Presumably, he should also have some face in Australia. To put it bluntly, although Australia has shaken off British rule, in many things, it still depends on the British eyes.

It was just that he did not expect Song Ziyan to help him communicate in advance ~ www.novelhall.com ~, and Crawford had already done it.

As for the consortium, Shi Lei fully pinned his hopes on the pupils of the night.

The Provincial Department also quickly received a response from the foreign affairs department, saying that it had made contact with the Australian side and confirmed Shi Lei's words. There was indeed another five days to agree.

The news quickly returned to the Deputy Director. The Deputy Director immediately stood up and shook Shi Lei's hand and said, "Mr. Shi, in fact, I personally believe that you are not the murderer of this case. But Please forgive us for our case handling procedures. Your monitoring here must be maintained, even if it is for the Australians. You can rest assured that I will step up the investigation and try to detect the case within five days of the other party's grace! "

Shi Lei smiled and said, "The Qing people are clearing themselves. I don't worry about it. It's not something I do. How can it not depend on me. If necessary, I will ask Mr. Scola to follow up. The Australian side has contacted and hopes that the other side will not push too hard. "

Having said that, in fact, Shi Lei had no worries in his mind, and Wei Bodhi could give the answer for up to ten hours.
