TranXending Vision Chapter 677

(Chapter posted unedited due to complaint about speed. Fully edited version will be updated later.)
“Mr. Xia, you came at the right time. Please give us your opinions on this matter!” Connell Bridge pointed at Song Baicheng, “He attempted to rape Miss Sylvia and yet he does not admit. This Mr. Ling tried to solve this problem with money. I think that this is an insult to us!”
“夏先生，你来的正好，你来评评理！”康纳桥指了一下宋百成，“他企图强奸西尔维娅小姐，却不承认，这位凌先生甚至想用钱来解决问题，我觉得这是对我们的侮辱！”
“Something like this was going on?” Xia Lei looked angry, “Doing such a thing under the broad daylight, where is the law of the land?”
“还有这样的事情？”夏雷很气愤的样子，“当天化日之下干这种事情，这还有王法吗？”
He seemed to have forgotten that it was not day but night. But his words expressed his stand and attitude. He was standing on the German's side.
他似乎没有忘了不是什么光天化日，而是在夜里。不过他的这句话是否表明了一种态度，也表明了他的立场，他是站在德国人这边的。
Ling Han's expression darkened. He had a feeling that this was not simply a scandal. Song Baicheng is his right hand man, he knew his conduct. Although Song Baicheng was somewhat of a pervert, he would never be reckless not to mention rape the German delegation's important person Sylvia in the Thunder Horse Military Factory!
凌浩的脸色越发的阴沉了下来，他有一种预感，这事并不简单。宋百成是他的心腹手下，他很了解宋百成的为人。宋百成虽然有点好色，但绝对不会乱来。更何况是在雷马军工厂里强.奸德方代表团的重要人物西尔维娅！
"Are you okay Miss Sylvia?" Xia Lei came to Sylvia's side. He asked gently, "Do not be scared and do not be nervous. Ling Han is the supervisor. He will stand up for you."
“西尔维娅小姐你没事吧？”夏雷走到了西尔维娅的身边，关切地道:“你别害怕，也别紧张，凌先生是负责人，他会为你主持公道的。”
On the other side, Ling Han's translator translated Xia Lei's each and every word.
另一边，凌浩的翻译一字不落地把夏雷的话翻译了出来。
Ling Han's expression darkened further. His eyes stopped on Xia Lei, his eyes becoming cold. At this time he had smelled a hint of a scheme.
凌浩的脸色更阴沉了，他的视线落在了夏雷的身上，他的眼神开始变得冰冷了。这个时候他已经嗅到了一丝阴谋的味道。
Xia Lei did not care about Ling Han's feeling and reaction. After he had comforted Sylvia, he took off his tank top and tied it around Sylvia's waist. Although Sylvia was still wearing an underwear, it was still, not appropriate to be so exposed in front of so many men.
夏雷一点都没把凌浩的感受和反应放在眼里，安慰了西尔维娅之后他利索地脱下了身上的背心，然后为西尔维娅系在了腰上。西尔维娅的身上虽然还穿着一条内裤，可老是曝露在这么多男人的面前也不是一回事。
“Thank Mr. Xia, thank you.” Sylvia wiped the tears on the corner of her eye looking very thankful.
“谢谢你夏先生，谢谢你。”西尔维娅擦着眼角的泪痕，很感激的样子。
“Mr. Xia, please tell me, how do you plan on taking care of this matter?” Connell Bridge pressed.
“夏先生，你说吧，怎么处理这件事？”康纳桥催促道。
Before Xia Lei could say anything, Ling Han pulled Connell Bridge to the side and whispered, "Mr. Connell Bridge, you guys came to do a technology exchange, we were also very cooperative. As for me, I think that this situation is a misunderstanding. Give me a little time and I will investigate clear and then give a satisfying answer. So in consideration of both of our interests, let us not make this into a huge deal. If this situation becomes big, it will not be good for you, and it will not be good for us."
夏雷还没有说话，凌浩便将康纳桥拉到了一边，小声地道：“康纳桥先生，你们来是交流技术的，我们也很配合。我吧，我看这件事肯定是一个误会。给我一点时间调查清楚，然后我一定给你一个满意的答复。所以，本着我们双方的利益，我们就不要把事情闹大了。这件事闹大了，你们没有好处，我们也没有好处。”
This was a cue.
这是一个暗示。
This cue immediately played its role. Germany really valued this exchange. The Thunder Horse Military Factory’s technology was the main point and not this stupid situation that was happening in front of them right now. Connell Bridge felt hesitant.
这个暗示很快就起到了应有的作用。德国很看重这次交易，雷马军工厂的技术才是重点，而不是眼前这件破事。康纳桥有些犹豫了。
Xia Lei lightly touched Sylvia.
夏雷轻轻地碰了一下西尔维娅。
Sylvia suddenly started bawling again, her emotions looked uncontrollable, “I have never received such an insult. I...I…” She began to climb up the balcony’s guardrail.
西尔维娅忽然又大声哭了起来，情绪也有失控的迹象，“我从来没有受过这样的侮辱，我……我……”她忽然往阳台的护栏上爬。
Xia Lei hugged her waist and said, “Mr. Connell Bridge, quickly come and comfort her.”
夏雷一把抱住了她的腰，一边说道：“康纳桥先生，你快来劝劝她。”
Connell Bridge came over and tugged Sylvia's arm. He comforted, "Sylvia, do not be too impetuous. You need to calm down. Their will definitely be an explanation to this. Do not forget what we came to do."
康纳桥跟着过来拉住西尔维娅的胳膊，劝说道：“西尔维娅，你别冲动，你冷静一点，这件事肯定会有一个说法的。你别忘了我们是来干什么的。”
As they talked, Xia Lei let go of Sylvia and Sylvia and Connell Bridge came together. She whispered, "If you want Xia Lei's technology, you must make these two leave."
纠缠中夏雷松开了西尔维娅，西尔维娅与康纳桥纠缠在了一起。却就在纠缠中，她压低了声音，“你要夏雷的技术，你就得让这两个人走。”
Connell Bridge took a second to process what she had said.
康纳桥顿时愣了一下。
Sylvia's voice became even smaller, "Making Mr. Xia happy should be better than making these two officials happy right? You need to understand, what we want is Mr. Xia's technology, not someone else's."
西尔维娅的声音更小了，“讨夏先生的欢心总比讨那两个官员的欢心好吧？你要明白，我们要的是夏先生的技术，而不是别人的技术。”
话都说到这份上了，康纳桥又不是傻子，他岂有不明白发生了什么事的道理。西尔维娅被强.奸是假，这是一个涉及到权利斗争的戏，而西尔维娅是得到某人的授意才这么做的！这个某人，还用费神去猜吗？
Although Connell Bridge did not know why Sylvia would enter into this battle over power, he understood which side he needed to stand on. There was nothing to gain from getting on the good side of two Chinese officials like what Ling Han had suggested. But if he were to get on Xia Lei's good side, he could complete his mission more beautifully and maybe even get some unexpected surprise. How would someone like him who had worked in the political world for so many years not know how to choose in this situation?
康纳桥虽然不知道西尔维娅为什么会参与到这场权利斗争之中，但却很清楚应该站在哪一边。顺从凌浩的意思，讨好两个华国的官员，这对他来说没有半点好处。但讨好夏雷，他却可以更好更出色地完成这次任务，甚至还有可能得到意外的惊喜。这么一种情况，在政界混了这么多年的他又怎么会不知道该怎么选择？
“No problem, do you have proof?” Connell Bridge whispered in Sylvia’s ear, “If you can give certain evidence, this case will become easier.”
“没问题，你有证据吗？”康纳桥在西尔维娅的耳边低声说道：“如果你能拿出一定证据，那这件事就更好办了。”
Sylvia said, “I took a video with my phone.”
西尔维娅说道：“我的手机拍了视频。”
Connell Bridge said, “That would be great, give it to me.”
康纳桥说道：“那太好了，把它交给我吧。”
Sylvia stopped crying and stopped throwing fists. She calmed down. When Connell Bridge let go of her she gave him her phone.
西尔维娅不哭也不闹了，安静下来了。康纳桥松开她的时候，她将手机递给了康纳桥。
Ling Han was suspicious when Sylvia and Connell Bridge whispered to each other. When he saw Sylvia gave her phone to him, his heart suddenly dropped. Before Connell Bridge could look at the phone's content, he walked up to him and tugged his hand, "Mr. Connell Bridge, I had been very clear. I really hope that you would consider it."
凌浩在西尔维娅和康纳桥耳语的时候就有所怀疑了，看到西尔维娅将她的手机交给康纳桥，他的心顿时往下一沉。不等康纳桥看手机上的内容，他就走了上去，拉住了康纳桥的手，“康纳桥先生，我刚才已经说得很清楚了，请你务必仔细考虑一下。”
Connell Bridge knotted his brows, “Mr. Ling, can you please wait a moment? Sylvia said she took a video of what happened with her phone, I want to see it.”
康纳桥皱了一下眉头，“凌先生，请你等一下好吗？西尔维娅说她的手机拍下了刚才的经过，我想看一看。”
Ling Han's face stiffened.
凌浩的面色顿时一僵。
Connell Bridge clicked open the video on the phone. The video was very shaky but you could still clearly see Sylvia and Song Baicheng's face. Sylvia's voice was also very clear. She was clearly rejecting and calling for help yet Song Baicheng still pushed her onto the bed, roughly holding her underneath him and moving his hand to pull her underwear.
康纳桥打开了手机上的视频。视频晃动得很厉害，可还是能清楚地看到西尔维娅和宋百成的样子。西尔维娅的声音也听得很清楚，她明显是拒绝的，甚至还叫了救命。可宋百成最终却把她推到了床上，粗暴地将她压在身下，动手去扯她的内裤。
"Hateful! He is a barbarian!" Yelled a German technician.
“可恶！简直是禽兽！”一个德国的技术人员骂道。
"This matter cannot just be put aside. This is an insult to Germany!" Someone called out.
“这件事不能就这么算了，这简直是对我们德国的侮辱！”有人嚷道。
“Call the police! Take this guy up to court!”
“报警！把这家伙送上法庭！”
“A barbarian! He is such a barbarian! I believe he must be punished!”
“禽兽！简直是禽兽！我觉得应该处以阉刑！”
A group of German were filled with righteous indignation.
一大群德国人义愤填膺。
Ling Han’s eyes turned to Song Baicheng. His eyes were filled with hatred and scarily cold.
凌浩移目宋百成，他的眼眸里满是恨意，冷得可怕。
Song Baicheng was scared to look Ling Han in the eye. He avoided his gaze, his forehead full of sweat. He never thought that Sylvia had turned on the video recording on the phone and recorded the whole process. He actually did not do anything too beyond measure but there was definitely something wrong with the German that Sylvia said that he could not understand.
宋百成哪里还敢与凌浩对视，他避开了凌浩的视线，额头上直冒冷汗。他万万没想到西尔维娅刚才居然一直开着手机的摄影功能，将那个过程拍了下来。他其实没做什么过分的事情，可西尔维娅说的那些他听不懂的德语却绝对有问题！
Connell Bridge finished the video. He looked very angry, “Mr. Ling, didn’t you say you want evidence? Now we have the proof, how do you plan to take care of this?”
康纳桥看完了视频，满面怒容的样子，“凌先生，你刚才不是要证据吗？现在有证据了，你打算怎么处理？”
Ling Han said coldly, “We will take care of it the way it should be taken cared of. We have our laws. Whichever one Song Baicheng committed, we will punish him accordingly.”
凌浩冷冷地道：“该怎么处理就怎么处理，我们有我们的法律，宋百成犯哪条治哪条。”
“I…” Song Baicheng wanted to explain but when the words came to him mouth he swallowed them again. Nevermind explaining, he would not be able to prove his innocence even if he were to jump into the river.
“我……”宋百成想解释，可话到嘴边又吞了下去。现在别说是解释了，就算是跳进黄河洗不清了。
Connell Bridge took out his phone.
康纳桥掏出了手机拨号。
Ling Han knotted his brows, “Mr. Connell Bridge, who are you calling?”
凌浩皱了一下眉头，“康纳桥先生，你给谁打电话？”
Connell Bridge replied, “Of course I am calling our ambassador. This case is very serious, we cannot just let it go.”
康纳桥说道：“当然是给我们的大使馆打电话，这件事很严重，我们不能就这么算了。”
Ling Han said, “Making a big deal out of this will do you guys no good.”
凌浩说道：“你把事情闹大对你们也没有半点好处。”
This time Xia Lei said, “Mr. Connell Bridge, I think it must be because Mr. Song drank too much so he is also unsure of what he was doing. How about we give him a chance. What do you think?”
夏雷这时出声说道：“康纳桥先生，我觉得吧是宋先生多喝了几杯，他也不清楚他在干什么。我看给他一个机会吧，你看行不行？”
凌浩和宋百成忍不住对视了一眼，两人都怀疑夏雷在这件事里搞鬼，却没想到他居然在这么关键的时候帮他们这边说话。
Connell Bridge cursed in his head but he kept an angry face, "Fine, since Mr. Ling will plead for us, as long as Miss Sylvia does not want to continue looking into it, I also do not want to make this into a big deal. This is after all a scandal that will negatively affect both of us." He faced Sylvia, "You will make the decision Sylvia."
康纳桥的心里暗骂了一句，面上却还是一副很生气的样子，“行，既然凌先生帮忙说情，只要西尔维娅小姐不追究的话，我也不想把事情闹大。这毕竟是一个丑闻，对我们双方都不好。”他面向西尔维娅，“西尔维娅，你来做决定吧。”
Everyone’s eyes focused on Sylvia.
所有人的视线都聚集到了西尔维娅的身上。
Sylvia’s eyes were blurred by tears, “I do not want to see these two anymore. If they continue to stay at the Thunder Horse Military Factory, I will go to the embassy myself to get justice.”
西尔维娅泪眼迷蒙，“我不想再看见这两个人了，如果他们继续留在雷马军工厂，我就自己去大使馆要一个公道。”
“This…” Xia Lei paused.
“这……”夏雷欲言又止。
Sylvia continued, “Mr. Xia, I respect you but I have decided on this. It will be either they leave, or I go to the embassy.”
西尔维娅说道：“夏先生，我尊敬你，但这件事我已经决定了。要么他们离开，要么我去大使馆。”
The translator translated Sylvia’s words to Ling Han.
翻译将西尔维娅的话翻译给了凌浩听。
Ling Han was immediately enraged, “You want me gone? Miss Sylvia, are you somehow mistaken? What did I do wrong? I am helping you solve the problem! Even if I did do something wrong, you do not qualify to tell me to leave! Unless if you guys do not want to stay here anymore!”
凌浩顿时怒了，“要我走？西尔维娅小姐，你有没有搞错？我做错了什么？我在帮你解决问题！而就算我做错了什么，你也没那个资格让我离开！除非你们不想在这里待下去了！”
This was already a warning.
这已经是一个警告了。
Xia Lei said, “Brother Ling, calm down. Why make such a big deal out of something small? Moreover, no matter how big of a situation it is, we cannot let the German members leave.”
夏雷说道：“凌哥，你别激动，一件小事你何必闹那么大呢。再说了，就算天大的事，也不能让德方的人员离开吧。”
Ling Han threatened that if the German party continued to make trouble, it would end this exchange but Xia Lei stepped out and said that no matter what happened the Germans cannot leave. This was obviously helping the Germans and relieving their pressure.
凌浩恐吓德方人员再闹下去会结束这次技术交易，可夏雷却站出来说天大的事都不能让德方的人员离开。这显然是在给德方的人撑腰，给德方的人缓解压力了。
Ling Han stared at Xia Lei. He was not stupid. Things have progressed so far, he had already understood a good 70 to 80% of it.
凌浩冷冷地看着夏雷。他不是傻瓜，事情发展到现在，他已经明白了七七八八了。
Xia Lei did not care how Ling Han felt at all. He also did not care if Ling Han knew that he played the role of the manipulator behind the scene of all this. Actually, he would not be able to hide it even if he wanted to because tomorrow Fan Fan would come to the Thunder Horse Military Factory to accept the responsibility for this technology exchange. By then how would Ling Han not understand that it was he who caused his misfortune.
夏雷一点都不在乎凌浩的感受，他也不在乎凌浩知道他在这件事里面扮演着幕后主使的角色。其实这事想瞒也是瞒不住的，因为明天凡凡就会来雷马军工厂接受负责这次技术交易。那个时候，凌浩还能不明白是他阴了他吗？
So what if you understand? I do not care!
明白就明白，老子不在乎！
Back then, when Ling Han and Yu Shanhe cooperated to deceive him, he had already not regarded Ling Han as his friend anymore!
当初，凌浩合着余山河来坑他的时候，他就已经没把凌浩当成是他的朋友了！
Now that Xia Lei had expressed his standpoint, Connell Bridge no longer hesitated, "Mr. Ling, I think that it is going to far that you are aiding with your man. Since Miss Sylvia has made her decision, then I will respect it. I will now give our ambassador a call. The ambassador Phillip will negotiate with your side to let them assign someone else over.
夏雷这样一表态，康纳桥再没有顾忌，他冷笑了一声，“凌先生，我觉得你偏袒你的人有些过分了。既然西尔维娅小姐已经做出了决定，那么我尊重西尔维娅小姐的决定。我现在就给我们大使馆打电话，菲利普大使会与你方交涉，让他们重新派人过来。”
There was nothing more to be talked about.
这事已经没有商量的余地了。
Ling Han faced Xia Lei. He smiled, "Xia Lei, my good brother, thank you for pleading for me."
凌浩看着夏雷，忽然咧嘴笑了，“夏雷啊，我的好兄弟，多谢你刚才为我说话了。”
Xia Lei sighed, "We're brothers, do not mention it. It is regretful that I was not able to help."
夏雷叹了一口气，“你我兄弟说这些干什么？我没帮上忙，心里挺过意不去的。”
"Xia Lei!" Song Baicheng pointed at Xia Lei's nose and spoke in fury, "Stop acting, are you going to act like you were not in behind this!"
“夏雷！”宋百成忽然指着夏雷的鼻子，愤怒地道：“你少在这里装模作样了，你敢说这件事你没搞鬼！”
Xia Lei shrugged his shoulders, "It seems that you show no repentance for your behavior. Why not just let the Germans take you to court?"
夏雷耸了一下肩，“看来你还是不思悔改，要不，还是让德国人把你送上法庭得了。”
"You…" Song Baicheng was unable to answer.
“你……”宋百成顿时焉气了。
"Have you not embarrassed yourself enough? Leave!" hollered Ling Han.
“你还嫌不够丢人吗？滚！”凌浩怒斥道。
Song Baicheng glared at Xia Lei and turned and left.
宋百成恨恨地盯了夏雷一眼，转身就走。
Ling Han looked at Xia Lei again, “Brother, must you do this?”
凌浩又看着夏雷，“兄弟，真要这么做吗？”
Xia Lei looked as if he had been wronged, "Brother Ling, do you also believe that I am behind this? If that is what you really think, then I also have nothing to say. Do as you guys please. Now I will take me leave."
夏雷一脸委屈的样子，“凌哥，难道你也认为这件事是我在捣鬼吗？如果你是这样认为的话，那我也无话可说了。你们爱这么搞就怎么搞吧。失陪了。”
Ling Han’s lips moved but he did not say anything. His eyes were extremely cold.
凌浩的嘴唇动了一下，但什么都没说。他的眼神冷得可怕。
