Chapter 546: Chapter 544: Reluctantly Letting Him Go

"What happened?"

Hearing his old friend’s words, Kunshi Qinawa was naturally full of confusion.

Just a moment ago, Anpeng Suwanapu was still advocating throwing Yang Qingshu into the detention room, letting those criminals who smash, loot, and arson teach him a lesson.

How did this old fellow suddenly back down after just ten-odd minutes?

Anpeng Suwanapu explained helplessly: "It’s an order from the Banco government, there’s nothing I can do!"

"They want us to present enough evidence. If we don’t, we must release him!"

Upon hearing this, Kunshi Qinawa furrowed his brows deeply.

He didn’t expect that person to act so swiftly, personally coming to Sheng Mei police station to pick up people while contacting the government.

Now with the order from the Banco government, it seems releasing them is unavoidable.

As for the evidence...

Where was he supposed to get any evidence?

The so-called "murder case" was just a name they made up temporarily.

He originally thought using the name "murder case," he could intimidate the other few Dragon Country people around Yang Qingshu.

But unexpectedly, they startled the Consul General Fu of Sheng Mei.

If he’d known this would happen, he might as well have sent someone to capture Yang Qingshu directly.

"Sigh!"

Thinking about this, he sighed helplessly.

"I think this guy Yang doesn’t seem to be lying."

"Maybe he really hasn’t met with Tongtai..."

Anpeng Suwanapu whispered.

Earlier, he was aggressive, but now he has softened and admitted defeat.

Who could blame him when Banco had spoken?

Currently, the Talan government and Eagle Country military were already tied up in endless disputes.

Without enough evidence, how could they allow Sheng Mei police station to detain a Dragon Country citizen freely?

Especially when the government had intervened.

No one wants to cause any disagreements over such trivial matters.

The tough stance from Banco made Anpeng Suwanapu a little timid.

He thought it was just helping an old friend, but unexpectedly, it alarmed the government.

With the situation like this, continuing to resist might lead to losing his mayoral seat to someone else.

After all, the excuse for arresting Yang Qingshu was unfounded and unable to withstand scrutiny!

"Oh well, maybe this kid just got lucky!"

Seeing his old friend’s expression, Kunshi Qinawa knew there was no room for maneuver.

He didn’t want to offend Consul General Fu or the distant Talan government at Banco either.

After speaking, he quietly translated the current situation to Lieutenant Daniel.

"Release him?"

Upon hearing this, Lieutenant Daniel was very unhappy.

"The government is involved already, we don’t have substantial evidence, we can only release him!"

Kunshi Qinawa sighed and replied.

"Can we not release him? We haven’t determined if he’s lying."

"Besides, I suspect the item is in this Dragon Country person’s possession."

Lieutenant Daniel said quite firmly.

"You can choose not to release him, provided you’re willing to bear the responsibility for it."

Hearing this, Kunshi Qinawa couldn’t help but laugh internally, knowing this Eagle Country fellow wanted them to take the hit.

But how could that be possible?

If this matter blows up, he and Anpeng’s political careers would definitely be over.

"Well, then forget it!"

"I think maybe he’s not lying either!"

Listening to this, Lieutenant Daniel shook his head decisively.

What a joke!

If he agreed, he might soon end up like Carrel and others.

"Heh heh..."

Seeing their cowardly demeanor, Kunshi Qinawa internally sneered again.

As the three reached a consensus to release him, Kunshi Qinawa proactively walked up to Yang Qingshu.

His face still had that faint smile.

"Qingshu, I apologize!"

"After checking, it’s a small issue from Sheng Mei police station."

"We have confirmed now that the murder case has nothing to do with you."

"So, you can leave now..."

Kunshi Qinawa smiled and said.

"Alright!"

Seeing the hypocritical smile on the other’s face, Yang Qingshu felt a bit nauseated.

He guessed that it was likely Song Qing and others informed Consul General Fu.

Otherwise, how could the three, who a moment ago were so threatening, back down so quickly?

If it was as usual, he might have let the three sweat for a while.

But now...

From Kunshi Qinawa’s queries, he suspected something might be wrong with Tongtai.

So he wished to leave as soon as possible and check out the situation on Tongtai’s side.

"Thank you, Mr. Yang, for cooperating."

"I’ll call someone to escort you out..."

Seeing him nod, Anpeng Suwanapu’s face quickly showed a hint of joy.

He hurriedly called an officer to escort Yang Qingshu out of the office politely.

Once Yang Qingshu left, the faces of the three in the office turned dark.

If Yang Qingshu really had seen Tongtai these past two days, then where did Tongtai hide the item?

...

Following the officer, Yang Qingshu left the office, and upon reaching the first floor, he saw Consul General Fu along with Song Qing, Zhao Jinde, and Ma.

Seeing him come downstairs, Song Qing and the others immediately ran over.

"Brother Yang, are you okay?"

Song Qing asked nervously.

"I’m fine! Thank you all!"

Yang Qingshu smiled at the three in front of him.

Just as he had guessed, it was Song Qing and the others who had reached out to Consul General Fu.

After exchanging a few words with Song Qing and the others, Yang Qingshu approached Consul General Fu, full of gratitude: "Consul General Fu, thank you for rescuing me!"

"Just a small matter!"

Consul General Fu smiled slightly.

Before, when Song Qing and the others came looking for him and reported that Sheng Mei police had taken Yang Qingshu away on suspicion of a murder case, it startled him greatly.

Judging by Yang Qingshu’s character, how could he possibly kill someone?

And in Sheng Mei, a place unfamiliar to him.

Therefore, he immediately brought Song Qing and the others to Sheng Mei police station.

Upon meeting with the Sheng Mei police chief, just as he expected, this chief was evasive and couldn’t explain the situation clearly.

Then, meeting with Mayor Anpeng Suwanapu further confirmed his thoughts.

These people had intentionally brought Yang Qingshu to the police station under the guise of crimes, hoping to get something from him or extract some answers.

Therefore, after Anpeng Suwanapu left, he quickly called the Dragon Country embassy in Banco...
