Chapter 903: Don’t Forget, I’m Getting Married in a Few Days’ Time

“I don’t think so.” Zhan Hong shook his head. “They wouldn’t dare to be so brazen. They might just be trying to retain Mr. Jiang here, to prevent him from returning home.”

Uncle Han nodded his head. “It’ll be better if they try to do something in the dark. In that case, we could just take care of it quietly and return home. It’ll be disastrous if they tried to file a lawsuit; the proceedings are long and tiresome. Many cases drag on for years before it’s concluded. It’s fine for an ordinary person but our Mister has many pressing projects on his hands. If he doesn’t go back, all these projects will come to a standstill.”

Nian Xi shuddered at the thought of it. She was a police officer; she understood his point. Although some people are released after a few months, they would have to stay in Paris under close police surveillance, and they wouldn’t be allowed to leave.

“Uncle Han, about the report on nanotechnology. Mr. Jiang should have a detailed report on it. We just have to produce a copy for reference to the police…”

“What if Cristine has already struck a deal with the police here?” Zhan Hong interrupted her saying, “Langyi Oda doesn’t have the guts to do this. The Americans must be behind him, and of course, the French will listen to them.”

“No matter what, can we try to bail out Mr. Jiang first?” Uncle Han sighed.

…

Uncle Han quickly found a Chinese lawyer, Mr. Mao to represent them. Lawyer Mao brought them to the Paris Police Station but the officers denied them the right to see Jiang Yuning, due to the severity of the matter. They were denying him bail as well.

Nian Xi said hurriedly, “Can’t we compare the nano-technology report? Any reasonable person would be able to tell who was the one who copied the report.”

Lawyer Mao looked at her coldly. “Mr. Oda has managed to reproduce a complete report on the matter as well. Mr. Jiang had accused him of plagiarism in public; he is now suing Mr. Jiang for defamation. Either Mr. Jiang admits to defaming him, or Mr. Oda admits to plagiarism.”

Uncle Han shook his head. “Either one of the choices could ruin our Mister’s reputation. He wouldn’t be able to gain a good standing in the world of physicists in the future. This is a matter of personal integrity.”
