"Who are you? What are you doing? Can't you see that we're in the middle of an interrogation?" Superintendent Kim was startled when he saw the man in a suit walking in.
"Jin Renqiang, what are you doing?" Outside the door, a middle-aged policeman with a medium build in a police uniform saw Jin Renqiang holding a baseball bat like a hooligan and shouted at him.
In the midst of the chaos in the interrogation room, no one noticed that a memory card in the camera in the corner automatically flew out of the camera and into Ye Xuan's hands.
"Mr Ye, are you alright?" The man in a suit quickly walked to the side of Ye Xuan who was lying on the floor and reached out to help Ye Xuan up. "Hello, Mr Ye Xuan. My name is Choi Ji-Ho. I'm a member of Korea's Clifford Law Firm. Mr Park Min Woo asked me to come."
"Hello, thank you for coming, Lawyer Choi!" Ye Xuan pretended to hold his left hand as his face forced a trace of paleness.
"Mr Ye, are you alright?" Park Min Woo quickly walked up and asked with a face full of concern.
Ye Xuan's pale face revealed a trace of a smile. "I'm fine. Thank you for your help, Manager Park!"
"Mr. Ye, may I ask if you can give me a simple description of what happened?" Cui Zhihao was indeed a lawyer. He quickly got into work mode.
"Okay, it's like this …" Ye Xuan organized his words and quickly explained the situation.
"Wu … Superintendent Wu, why are you here?" Seeing the middle-aged policeman striding in, Superintendent Kim was shocked. He hid the baseball bat in his hand behind his back.
"If I didn't come, would I just let you do whatever you want? The reputation of the Republic of Korea's police is ruined by people like you. "Superintendent Wu looked at Superintendent Kim with a dignified expression.
"No, Superintendent Wu, what are you talking about? I'm interrogating a criminal with sufficient evidence. The criminal refused to confess, so I used some small tricks to scare him. "Superintendent Kim quickly regained his composure and said with a dignified expression.
"Scare me?" When Choi Ji Ho, who was at the side, heard Superintendent Kim's words, his expression turned solemn, "Officer, according to the Republic of Korea's laws, only prosecutors have the right to interrogate criminals. Furthermore, they are not allowed to use violence. Earlier, you used a baseball bat to attack my client, causing serious injuries to my client. We reserve the right to sue. "
"No, I …" Once Cui Zhihao said that, Superintendent Jin immediately panicked.
Cui Zhihao ignored Superintendent Jin and turned to look at Superintendent Wu. He said, "Officer Wu, according to my client's statement, your people only brought my client to the police station in the name of assisting in the investigation, but based on the scene, Not only did your police station treat my client as a criminal, but you also used violence against him. According to the Republic of Korea's Civil Protection Act, I feel that my client's personal safety cannot be guaranteed in the police station. I demand that my client leave the police station immediately. Also, we reserve the right to sue the police for mistreating our international friends and harming the safety of innocent people for the unfair treatment my client received at your police station. "
Seeing Cui Zhihao's unyielding attitude. Superintendent Wu frowned and glanced at Superintendent Jin. "Lawyer Cui. "Lawyer Cui, I think this is just a small misunderstanding. There's no need to make such a big fuss. What do you think?"
"Whether it's a misunderstanding or not, I will explain it clearly to your police station in court as my client's lawyer!" Cui Zhihao refused to budge.
Faced with Cui Zhihao's unyielding attitude, Superintendent Wu frowned. If it was really as Cui Zhihao said, then their police station's reputation would be greatly damaged. At that time, if the higher-ups blamed them for this matter, he would also be in trouble.
"He can't leave. We received a report that a witness saw him trying to murder someone at the Dragon Palace Leisure Club in Qingdamdong. The victim didn't succeed, but the victim suffered serious injuries and is currently being treated in the hospital." Superintendent Jin looked at Cui Zhihao. Superintendent Jin wasn't a fool. This matter had already exceeded his expectations. Originally, he just wanted to deal with a brat from Hua Ming who had no power or influence. Who knew that this brat wasn't simple? In fact, in his heart, he had already cursed the person who asked him to arrest him. If that person hadn't said that this brat had no power or influence and was just an immigrant who had just arrived, he wouldn't have dared to do this. However, it was too late to say all this now. He had already boarded the pirate ship, and he had no way out. He could only make this an ironclad case so that he could extricate himself from this matter.
"Hmph, according to my client, your so-called witness didn't even testify at the scene, and there isn't any video evidence to prove that my client went to that club. I seriously suspect that the police are fabricating criminal evidence to threaten my client to confess. These are the evidence!" Cui Zhihao picked up the documents on the table and took a photo with his phone. Then, he patted the table.
Seeing the documents in Cui Zhihao's hands, Superintendent Wu took a look, and his expression changed. He glared at Superintendent Jin, wishing he could immediately chop this idiot into pieces.
"My client's left hand is seriously injured. Now, I want to bail my client out immediately. I wonder if Officer Wu agrees?" Cui Zhihao looked at Superintendent Wu with a face full of confidence.
Superintendent Wu glared at Superintendent Jin with an ugly expression. It was all this idiot's fault. He didn't use his brain to cause such a big problem, and he even implicated the entire police station, especially me.
Of course, Superintendent Wu knew that he shouldn't be bailed out in this situation. However, looking at Cui Zhihao, who was known as the "lone wolf" in the Korean lawyer world, Superintendent Wu couldn't do anything about it. There was a saying in the industry: If you were targeted by a "lone wolf," you wouldn't be able to escape unless you were bitten off a piece of meat.
This Cui Zhihao was famous for being ruthless in the lawyer world. A few years ago, even an inspector had fallen into his hands. He dared to guarantee that if he dared to say that he wouldn't be bailed out, his boss would call his phone later.
"Alright! Lawyer Cui, please go ahead. We'll go and handle the procedures together. "Superintendent Wu nodded.
"No, Superintendent Wu, he …"
"Shut up!" Superintendent Jin still wanted to stop him, but Superintendent Wu immediately cut him off.
With Superintendent Wu's approval, the matter of bail was quickly settled. Superintendent Wu personally escorted them out of the police station and said to Ye Xuan, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ye. Due to the inappropriate behavior of some people in our police station, I'm really sorry for causing you to suffer such harm! "
With that, Director Wu bowed slightly to Ye Xuan to express his apology.
In response to Superintendent Wu's apology, Ye Xuan dodged to the side and said coldly, "I wouldn't dare. Superintendent Wu, you're too polite."
Seeing Ye Xuan's expression, Director Wu frowned.
"Then, we'll be leaving first, Director Wu. If there's any progress regarding my client's case, please call me first. Goodbye! "Cui Zhihao nodded at Superintendent Wu and smiled faintly.
Standing at the entrance of the police station and watching Ye Xuan and the other two get into the car, Superintendent Wu knew that this matter was definitely not over. He walked into the police station and walked towards Wang Feiyang. "Officer Wang, now I want you to put down the case you're working on and focus on investigating the case of the person who was just bailed out."
The three of them got into the car, and Pu Minyu automatically ran to the front to start the car. Ye Xuan and Cui Zhihao sat in the back seat.
"Mr. Ye, are your injuries serious? Do you want to go to the hospital to have a look first?" Cui Zhihao sat in the car and looked at Ye Xuan.
"No need, it's just a superficial injury. I still have to thank Lawyer Cui for your help today. This is a small token of my gratitude. Please accept it, Lawyer Cui! " Ye Xuan smiled and waved his left hand. He was not as motionless as he was in front of the police just now. Then, he took out a checkbook from his body. This checkbook was handed to him by the president of Citibank with both hands when he made a deposit. The maximum amount written on it was 100 million US dollars. Ye Xuan naturally knew that if he wanted the horse to run, the horse would have grass to eat. He wanted to ensure that the horse would have grass to eat. He wrote down 100,000 USD in the checkbook and handed it to Cui Zhihao.
"Mr. Ye, you're too kind!" Cui Zhihao said it was polite, but his hands were not. He reached out and took the check. After glancing at the number on the check, his eyes narrowed into a smile.
"Mr. Ye, I wonder if you have any arrangements for this matter?" Cui Zhihao naturally understood the principle of "taking someone's money to eliminate a disaster". After keeping the check, he immediately asked.
"Lawyer Cui, I'd like to know if there are no surveillance videos to prove that I was at the Dragon Palace Leisure Club other than some so-called eyewitnesses, what are the chances of us winning this lawsuit?" Ye Xuan asked after pondering for a while.
Cui Zhihao thought for a while and said, "According to what Mr. Ye said, the chances of us winning this lawsuit is more than 70%. If Mr. Ye doesn't mind spending a little more money, I have a 95% chance of winning this lawsuit."
"How much more money?" Ye Xuan raised his eyebrows and asked.
"If I were to handle it, it wouldn't exceed 50 million won," Cui Zhihao said.
50 million won was equivalent to about 50,000 US dollars. This was within his range. Ye Xuan nodded. "Alright, do as you see fit!"
After a pause, Ye Xuan said, "Lawyer Cui, you've seen the unfair treatment I received at the police station just now. Under such circumstances, what do you think would happen if I wanted to sue Superintendent Kim?"
"Mhmm!" Cui Zhihao thought for a while and shook his head. "This is a little difficult. After all, although we saw Superintendent Kim use violence on you at the scene, we don't have any concrete evidence …"
"What if I have evidence?" Ye Xuan took out a memory chip and a recording pen from his pocket. "This contains the entire process of Superintendent Kim's interrogation of me. I believe it will be useful to you."
Cui Zhihao took the things from Ye Xuan's hands and turned on the recording pen first. The more he listened, the more shocked he became, and the wider the smile on his face became. "Mr. Ye, with this evidence, I promise I can at least peel off that layer of skin from Superintendent Jin."
"Goodbye, Mr. Ye!"
After asking Park Minyu to park the car outside the teahouse, Ye Xuan wrote a check for 50,000 US dollars and handed it to Park Minyu. After bidding farewell to Park Minyu and Cui Zhihao, Ye Xuan walked into the teahouse.
From the time he left until his return, Ye Xuan had only stayed at the police station for a total of two hours. When he returned to the teahouse, most of the people outside the teahouse had already left. However, the staff had not left. The things in the teahouse were almost cleaned up.
"President Ni, you're back!" A waitress who was cleaning the floor outside shouted in surprise when she saw Ye Xuan walking in.
As she shouted, everyone who was cleaning the teahouse looked up. When they saw Ye Xuan, they put down what they were doing and ran out.
"President Ni, are you okay?"
"President Ni, the police must have made a mistake. How could you hurt someone?"
…
The waitresses surrounded Ye Xuan and chattered. It was very lively. Ye Xuan glanced at the crowd and saw Zheng Jingxian standing at the door of the teahouse. She looked at him with a smile.
"Thank you. Thank you for your concern. I'm fine. I'm fine!" For these waitresses who cared about him, Ye Xuan felt a surge of warmth in his heart.
Perhaps when Ye Xuan opened this teahouse before, he only thought of opening it for fun. Now, his mentality had changed. The meaning of this teahouse had also changed. It was no longer just a place for him to relax, but it carried the dreams of more than a dozen people.
On this day, Ye Xuan did not go home again. Instead, he stayed in the teahouse to clean up the teahouse. Then, when the people from the decoration company came, he participated in the discussion of the decoration style.
The day passed quickly. When everyone left the teahouse, Ye Xuan did not leave immediately. Instead, he sat in the teahouse for a long time. When it was past nine o 'clock, he closed the door and walked toward the street outside of Myeongdong.
Ever since he opened the teahouse in Myeongdong, Ye Xuan rarely walked the streets of Myeongdong. Every time, he would come and go in a hurry. It was just like going from Huamingguo to Korea. This was just a stop in his life.
The shops on both sides of the street were brightly lit. The streets were filled with people and endless streams of cars.
As Ye Xuan walked on the street, he brushed shoulders with countless people, but he never stopped. He walked toward the entertainment street in Myeongdong.
The so-called entertainment street was actually a street where the planning bureau of Myeongdong gathered most of the entertainment places to facilitate management. Whether it was a bar, a disco, a karaoke room, or a bathing place, as long as you could think of an entertainment place, there were legends about it. There were also several underground casinos here, but most people did not know about them.
Tonight, the reason why Ye Xuan came here was not to have fun out of boredom, but to have fun with a purpose.
