Chapter 1097 Repression (1/2)
America's police department did not have a good reputation. There were often news
reports of police officers accidentally wounding or even killing people.
Cops looked tough, but sometimes they were weak, as in the case of encountering the
very rich.
In the United States, racial tension contributed to clashes between the police and
various ethnic minorities.
Li Du was Chinese, but he was also a very wealthy, influential man, the kind who had
just sent a police chief to prison.
In the United States, even the most arrogant journalists, let alone an ordinary cop, dare
not provoke the rich and powerful.
If Li Du were just an ordinary Chinese and dared to talk to the police the way he did, the
police would certainly not relent and would take him back to teach him a lesson.
However, he was not someone ordinary, but a multimillionaire who had just
demonstrated his strength and status.
The African American cop dared not provoke him. At this time he was very angry but
also helpless. He could not display his anger to Li Du, so he subconsciously looked at
Luo Qun, wanting to take out his anger on her.
Then he realized that whether they were lovers or not, Li Du and Luo Qun had a close
relationship. No matter how they were connected, he got into trouble because of his big
mouth.
The police officer knew that the fact was that Li Du had handcuffs on his hands while he
had done nothing wrong. If this went out, he would be doomed.
So he hurriedly mellowed down his tone and said, ”Mr. Li, there was obviously some
misunderstanding between us. I hope you don't get angry and we can talk about it,
OK?”
Li Du knew the means to deal with these people. He had to face them in a tough
manner, since being a polite gentleman would not work.
.
He looked at the policeman and said, ”Misunderstanding? Perhaps. Come on, let's go to
the police station and clear up the misunderstanding. I hope you can explain to your
boss why you handcuffed me.”
The cop said helplessly, ”Mr. Li, you framed me. I did not handcuff you…”
”The handcuffs were on your waist. Do you suggest I took them to handcuff myself?” Li
Du sneered.
The cop was furious and said, ”Well, that's what you did! Aren't you the one who
handcuffed yourself?”
Li Du had been too fast for him. Before the cop knew what was happening, he grabbed
the handcuffs dangling from his waist and handcuffed himself.
Now if outsiders saw him, they would naturally think Li Du was the victim of an unlawful
arrest!
Li Du was furious. ”You went too far, officer! You handcuff me to humiliate me, and now
you want to frame me, saying that I put the handcuffs on myself. Do you think anyone
would believe that?”
This was the catch, and the cop knew it: tough what he said was the truth, no one would
believe him.
To make matters worse, his colleagues all knew that he discriminated against Asians.
He was biased against all Asians, especially the Chinese.
If Li Du walked in handcuffed into the police station, the cop knew his colleagues would
think he was looking for trouble with Li Du and arrested him for no good reason.
