"Mr. Xiao." "Hello, I didn't expect to meet you in Boston." A man in a well-ironed suit came to Xiao Peng's side. It was Fred, the Boston Police Department's chief of police.

Xiao Peng shrugged, "Bureau Chief Fred, I don't think you want to meet under such circumstances?"

Fred smiled bitterly, "Well, although I don't want to admit it, it's true. It's a pity that such a thing happened."

Xiao Peng waved his hand, "What are you saying? Do you think I would be fooled by such a simple excuse? Chief Fred, I want to know the truth. "

"Mr. Xiao, can we talk in private?"

Xiao Peng nodded and went to the study with Bureau Chief Fred.

After entering the room, Xiao Peng took out a cigar, "Bureau Chief Fred, how about one?"

"Well, that's a good cigar."

Xiao Peng laughed. "Not bad. Blumberg knew that I like smoking cigars, so he kept giving me this stuff. It's a pity you didn't come at the right time. This is Gao Xi Ba's' mentor ', and Bloomberg told me that he helped me get a box of' Baiko '. He'll be able to get it when he goes to New York in a few days. "

Fred took the cigar that Xiao Peng handed to him without saying a word. He was still digesting Xiao Peng's words.

On one hand, Xiao Peng wanted to tell him the value of this cigar, and that he wanted to tell Fred to treat him as a friend.

Although Gao Xi Ba's cigar was famous, due to the decrease in the production of tobacco in recent years, Gao Xi Ba's cigar was very scarce, and his mentor, Gao Xi Ba'e'e, was already very rare. Gao Xi Ba'be was even rarer, since he only used the two leaves at the top of his cigarette, which were grown in the sun, since they had stopped production and were priceless, he could only use these precious cigars to entertain his friends.

On the other hand, Xiao Peng was mentioning his social circle. After all, this was the country of Xing Han. Many rich and powerful people from other countries also suffered because they didn't have this social circle. Xiao Peng mentioned Bloomberg as a reminder to Fred — you have to do my job properly!

To paraphrase the Star-Spangled Nation saying, "Justice comes at a price." In this place, the lack of resources meant that he was at a disadvantage.

Why didn't Fred understand the logic behind Xiao Peng's words? With a smile, he said, "Mr Xiao, it's good enough to smoke this. I read about the Arizona incident. Your friendship with Mr. Bloomberg and John McPhee was very enviable. "

Xiao Peng nodded, "Mr. Fred, can you give me an explanation now? Why would such a thing happen? "

Fred said with a wry smile, "Mr. Xiao, I won't hide this from you. Someone called the police and said you were involved in a crime against someone else. The victim was a Harvard student named Austin Xavier. His father was a director of the Harvard Council. His identity put a lot of pressure on the police."

Xiao Peng thought for a moment. "Austin?" Oh, I've seen him, and I was given a drink at the Meatshop when there were more than a dozen witnesses and he left on his own. "

Fred nodded. "He was attacked after he left. "Then he called the police and said you ordered them to do it, and that the perpetrator was Chinese."

Xiao Peng's' puchi '

He laughed, shook his head and said: "I didn't do it!"

One must never speak carelessly when dealing with the police in the State of Stars. No matter what happened, he had to say 'no' first. If you're dealing with the police here, the first thing you have to do is keep quiet, make mistakes, and once you're in a position to do so, it's hard to repudiate, and don't try to defend yourself — that's the job of a lawyer.

It is easy for Chinese people to take advantage of this in the Stars and Stripes. Chinese people have a habit of rushing to explain after something happens. This was not something that could be avoided in the Stellar Strikes, as it often made things even more complicated. The police don't care who's right and who's wrong. They just want to arrest people and don't listen to the explanation. The explanation has to go to the judge.

Fred nodded hastily. "Of course. How could Samuel do such a thing? "

Xiao Peng wasn't afraid. He didn't do it. He didn't let the 'angels' break Austin's legs, did he? That was their business.

Xiao Peng smiled, "That is why I say, Chief Fred, I really don't understand. If you need my cooperation in this investigation, I will cooperate with you, but you have disturbed my meeting without any evidence, and have sent so many people to arrest me. Do you think the prosecution will accuse me for this? Then what qualifications do you have to capture me? You unconditionally released me when you took me back. Are you treating me as the owner of the West Beijing Merchant Shop? "

The case of Boss Liu of the Jingxi Merchant Shop, who had caused an uproar a while ago, was very similar to Xiao Peng's current situation. More than 90% of those arrested for serious crimes in the Star Stripe Country would often be charged with setting a bail fee before being released. However, for people like Boss Liu, who were arrested on charges of X invasion, they would be released without paying a passport or bail fee in the end. According to this situation, there was a 99% chance that the prosecution would not bring a lawsuit against Boss Liu.

It was very likely that Boss Liu had run into some 'flesh and bones', or was even falsely accused. But even if he had been falsely accused, he would have to admit that he was unlucky: because it had happened in Minnesota, and according to the law there, if someone accused another person of a crime, even if it was a false accusation, that person would not be prosecuted, even if it was all a lie to the police, there would be no fine, and sometimes a false accusation of an invasion would give him a green card (as in the previous case, it would have been inconvenient for him to write a specific case, just ask Old Yang).

So from a certain point of view, being a rich person in Star Stripe Country was pretty unlucky. Their laws were often used to protect against false accusations. Just like the famous Michael Jackson X case back in the day, in fact, after a few court cases, the boy's family were all defeated because they couldn't come up with any evidence at all. The boy said that if Michael Jackson X invaded himself, then he should at least recognize his little brother. The result was hard to say. But after a few defeats, the boy's family continued to appeal, forcing the judge to ask Michael Jackson to settle the matter out of court, and then he paid twenty million dollars; ten years later he paid another forty million dollars.

The laws of the Stellar Union were like this. They liked to complicate simple matters and provide the lawyers with space to do business. Thus, there were plenty of ways to torment someone.

Fred I

With a bitter smile, he said, "Mister Xiao, I really didn't know about this matter."

"If it wasn't for me, you could have done this?" Xiao Peng directly interrupted him.

Fred sighed. "Mr. Shaw, you don't understand the power of the Harvard Alumni Association. Austin's father is a director of the Harvard Alumni Association, which makes it really hard for us to do."

"Oh, there is indeed power. A single director can stand above the law?" Xiao Peng said flatly, "Alright, I'll call Blumberg right away and ask him to contact the Harvard Alumni Association for me and see if I can get to know a bunch of awesome people like this. I want to see for myself how powerful they are. "

Fred waved his hand. That's what he was afraid of.

"What does Bloomberg do?" The boss of Bloomberg, what was Bloomberg like? The world's largest financial information company, almost all the world's central banks, almost all the official institutions of the Stars and Stripes, as well as banks, use them as providers of financial information services. Just thinking about it made Bloomberg feel like his balls were hurting.

"Mr Xiao, don't be angry. Wasn't I here to resolve this matter? If the Harvard alumni association knew about this, Austin's father wouldn't be sitting on the board. " Fred urged.

Xiao Peng looked at Fred: "Bureau Chief Fred, then I want to know how you want to settle this?"

Fred retorted, "What does Mr Xiao mean?

Xiao Peng shook his head, "Do you want me to solve the problem or can you solve the problem for me? "Well, Chief Fred, as long as you can answer one question, I can let this pass as if it had never happened."

Fred's face lit up when he heard this. "Please ask, Mister Xiao."

Xiao Peng directly asked, "Do you think that you would be able to catch people casually here? And then the wrongdoer doesn't have to take any responsibility? Officer Fred, wait here for me. I'll get a cell phone and record your answer. "If there's really no responsibility, OK, I'll go and sue Abe right now. What kind of crime do you think I'm on?"

Fred's face almost turned green when he heard this. Xiao Peng was causing trouble, did he dare to answer this question? Of course not!

He hastened to answer, "Mr. Shaw, we are not in Minnesota, and the false accusation would be a terrible one. I am not a prosecutor or a judge, but in previous cases, Austin's actions are suspected of 'tampering with evidence', a felony. And the false police, a misdemeanor. But I'm not sure the prosecutor will bring a lawsuit like that, but I think the worst case will be a second-class false alarm and police interference. Although it's a misdemeanor, it means he's going to be in jail for at least a year. "

Xiao Peng rested his chin on his hands as he thought. One year? It was a little too little!

Seeing Xiao Peng's expression, Fred quickly said, "If we're going to prosecute this matter, then you don't have to directly clash with the Harvard Alumni Association. That gave them a way out. At least, this is better than having your face ripped off, right? "

It had to be said that what Fred said moved Xiao Peng's heart. At least he didn't have to do it himself, right?

"I want to see the result!" Xiao Peng gave him five words.

Fred let out a long breath, and the matter was finally settled. https:)
