When Liu Dongmei saw the two policemen come in, she immediately became nervous, but she looked at Yang Jing who was also standing upright, gritted her teeth and went to greet them.
"Comrade police officer, I am Liu Dongmei, the wife of Xue Renfa. May I ask what you two want to talk to my old Xue about?"
The two policemen were one tall and one short. The tall one had a triangular star on his collar badge, which represented the rank of third-level superintendent on the Type 92 police uniform. The shorter one, who looked younger, had two arrow-shaped stars on his collar badge, which meant that the young policeman was a first-level police officer.
The two policemen did not answer Liu Dongmei's words, but first looked around the yard with a vigilant eye, their gaze focused on the things spread on the ground and Yang Jing's body.
Then, the third-level police inspector said, "We are from the Panjiayuan Police Station. We received a report that someone here is reselling cultural relics! Are you Xue Renfa's wife? Where is your husband?"
The law enforcement of police officers in this era was far less standardized than in later generations. These two did not do the most basic thing of showing their police officer ID.
However, Liu Dongmei immediately became uncontrollably flustered by the sharp gaze of the third-level police inspector. In this day and age, the police are still quite intimidating in the eyes of ordinary people.
"My, my husband is out..." Liu Dongmei said hesitantly.
"When will he be back?"
"Maybe in a while. He went out to look for a car."
"Looking for a car? What for? Looking for a car to take away these cultural relics?" The third-level police inspector pressed Liu Dongmei step by step, and her questions made her dumbfounded.
The young first-level police officer looked at Yang Jing, pulled the third-level police superintendent, and stuck out his lips at Yang Jing.
The third-level police inspector let Liu Dongmei go and walked straight to Yang Jing, "Who are you? What's your name? Where are you from? What are you doing in Xue Renfa's family?"
Yang Jing was stunned for a moment, but he still said calmly: "Excuse me, who are you?" After experiencing the incident in London where he was invited in for tea by the police, Yang Jing was able to handle the current situation rationally when faced with such a situation.
"Who are we? Can't you see what we are wearing? I'm asking you now, answer quickly."
Yang Jing shook his head slightly and said, "There are too many scammers these days. Although you two are wearing police uniforms, it does not mean that you are real police officers. I think, according to regulations, you two should show relevant legal documents to prove your identities before enforcing the law. Without legal documents, I refuse to answer your questions."
The older third-level police inspector was stunned by what Yang Jing said, while the young first-level police officer was a little angry and wanted to step forward, but was stopped by the third-level police inspector.
The third-level police inspector nodded slightly, then took out an ID from his jacket pocket, on which was clearly written the words "Police Officer ID". The third-level police inspector placed the front of the police officer ID in front of Yang Jing, then opened the police officer ID so that Yang Jing could clearly see the contents.
"Did you see clearly? This is my police ID. I am Ma Shaohua, a third-level police officer at Panjiayuan Police Station. This is my colleague, Li Dong, a first-level police officer at Panjiayuan Police Station."
Yang Jing nodded, "Officer, what do you two want to talk to me about?"
Ma Shaohua put the certificate back into his pocket and said seriously, "We received a report from the public that someone was reselling cultural relics here."
"Reselling cultural relics? Officer, are you referring to these things?" Yang Jing pointed to the manuscripts spread on the ground.
The police officer did not answer Yang Jing's question, but stared at Yang Jing and said seriously: "Where are you from? What's your name? Why are you here?"
"Officer, my name is Albert Young, a British-Chinese. I paid for all these things and temporarily stored them with Old Xue. Now I am going to take them away, so of course I have to stand here."
"Albert Young? Are you British?" the younger Li Dong asked in surprise.
"Yes, this is my passport. I just came to Yanjing last night. I had heard of the ghost market in Yanjing for a long time, so I wanted to buy some things for my collection. Here, these things you two see are all what I bought in the market today."
The two police officers hesitated for a moment, and Li Dong reached out to take Yang Jing's "passport", opened it and looked at it carefully, and then whispered to Ma Shaohua: "Captain Ma, this passport should be real."
Although Li Dong's voice was not loud, Yang Jing could still hear it. The corners of Yang Jing's mouth could not help but twitch slightly.
Are you kidding? This is the counterfeiting technology of 2017. In this era, even a real passport is not much more dangerous than this fake passport. With the knowledge of these police comrades in this era, it would be strange if they could tell that this is a fake certificate. Maybe if it were a professional police officer in the ministry or the municipal bureau who specializes in handling passports for going abroad, they might check Yang Jing's entry and exit records, but these ordinary police officers in the police station don't have the power to check. They may not even have seen the passport...
This carefully prepared "passport" is synonymous with high-end in this era, and in this era, foreigners still have a high status in China...
The reason why Yang Jing prepared such a fake passport before traveling through time was that he was afraid that someone would cause trouble. Although Yang Jing was reluctant to turn himself into a foreigner, he really had no other choice. But now it seems that his worries at that time were not in vain, and this fake passport has now worked.
