272 Encounters with porcelain
Catherine looked a little embarrassed, her hat had been taken off, her silver-white bun looked slightly messy, the messy hair next to her sideburns made her look a little weak, and her elegant, calm, energetic, and energetic temperament became sluggish in an instant, making the old age and sadness faintly revealed.

It makes people sad for a while, and I can't bear it.
"Are you alright?" Lu Li asked with concern.
Catherine chuckled, but she didn't have the energy she had just now, her eyebrows were full of exhaustion, and she waved her hand lightly, "It's okay." It's just ......," she let out a long breath, "it's old." The light voice had a hint of banter, but there was a lingering weakness, she pulled the corners of her mouth and laughed, "When I was young, what was this, those little young people, I rushed straight over, and one person could deal with a group of them." ”
Her voice didn't have much strength, weakening the edge of the words, but it still made Lu Li chuckle, he looked back at the four young people, their state still hasn't changed, and then he turned his head, "I think, the ambulance will come in a while, you'd better go to the hospital and have a look, okay?"
"Hospital?, I guess, I don't have a choice, not a horse?" Catherine smiled self-deprecatingly, "If I don't want the guys in the family to keep talking, I think I need to go to the hospital too." At least it can put them at ease. The ridicule revealed in the words made people laugh.
In foreign countries, the emergency telephone system is different, such as "911" in the United States and "999" in the United Kingdom. In case of emergency, dial the phone, and the operator will understand the basic situation, determine the situation at the scene, and then complete the dispatch and arrange for the police/inspector, fire alarm, ambulance, etc. to go to the scene.
In a situation like a car accident, police cars and ambulances should be on the way over.
"Well, ah, hmph......" The driver was still lying on the ground, chirping and chirping, and seemed to be in pain all over his body, as if he had been injured in the collision accident and not Catherine.
It's just that his three friends are standing not far away, one is smoking, and then pointing to Lu Li and the others, scolding and talking non-stop, and the other two are arguing with each other about something, the scene is extremely lively, and a little absurd, so that people can't tell what is going on.
"What's wrong with him?" Tony frowned, he didn't see the whole thing directly for the short encounter just now, so naturally he didn't know what was going on.
Lu Li couldn't help laughing, he naturally couldn't understand the brief collision just now. His strength was not necessarily great, but the man kept moaning/moaning, struggling, and never wanting to get up, obviously touching porcelain.
Now is indeed the era of globalization, and even the work of touching porcelain has come to the United Kingdom across the ocean. However, compared with those professional porcelain touching in China, the actors here are obviously not attentive enough, just lying on the ground and pretending, even moaning/moaning is not sincere, which can be seen through at a glance.
"He thought it was a stage in London's West End. The ridiculous words made everyone laugh, and the solemn atmosphere eased a little.
After a while, the police car arrived at the scene first, and two uniformed policemen/detectives walked down, and before he could speak, the three young people swarmed up, and the wicked person sued first, "The lady just now directly retreated from the parking space, not looking at the road at all, we couldn't dodge, and we were hit." We got out of the car and tried to solve the situation with kind words, but they didn't expect that they were not reasonable at all, and they came up and beat people, you see, one of our companions has already fallen, and I don't know what internal injuries there are, and then I was also beaten to bruises. ”
As he spoke, the other young man lifted his clothes and showed the fist marks that Lu Li had beaten just now.
Although it is not as exaggerated as the bruises, it is true that you can see light red marks, which are imprinted on his ribs in layers. It's not shocking, but it does show the fact that he was beaten.
One of the police officers took out their notebooks and began to take notes, while motioning for them to slow down, "Slow down, slow down, start at the beginning." You guys come to the parking lot, and then what?"
"We don't have time! My companion needs treatment! Don't you hear? Those guys, not only caused the car accident and injured us, but also beat us up unreasonably, what else do you need? What do you need? Do you need blood? Do you need to see the bleeding so you want to do something?"
The three young people, you and I continued to attack, and one of them was always scolding and swearing, one sentence after another, which only made the atmosphere of the scene more and more chaotic and the mood more and more irritable.
"Fourteen?" Brandon called out, outside of the horse, he was not a man of words, he really had little experience in dealing with such a situation, Tony was taking care of Catherine, and looked over with a worried face, and their eyes couldn't help but fall on Lu Li's-
Are they doing nothing and just letting those young people talk nonsense?
Lu Li knew their tricks and wanted to strike preemptively, giving the police/inspector a preconceived impression. Lu Li didn't intend to let them continue talking, and strode up, and the police/inspectors smelled the uneasiness, and one of them walked in Lu Li's direction, trying to isolate them.
But Lu Li did not compromise and shouted loudly. "Do you have the courage to repeat what you just said to Catherine? Do you have the courage to repeat those foul words that you just said? You need treatment? You do! You cowards, you should go to a mental hospital and be treated!"
"Calm down, young man, calm down!" the policeman pushed Lu Li back, trying to control the situation, but found that neither side had any intention of stopping, he had to yell loudly, "Shut up! Shut up for me!" He shouted viciously, his eyes were cold and fierce, "This is England! You better obey the laws here! Otherwise, I will educate you well!"
Lu Li was stunned and looked at the policeman in disbelief. In this sentence just now, the rejection of foreigners is revealed, and what is hidden is naturally the maintenance of their own people. Whether or not there is racial/racial discrimination involved, this is not good news.
Lu Li raised his hands, took two steps back, showed his innocence, and then explained loudly, "They hit this car, and then they got out of the car and started to talk about it! They scolded and scolded the teacher and asked for their guilt! They didn't even intend to care about the lady's physical condition, so they started talking about insurance! Why didn't they talk about these situations? Why didn't they say it, they didn't have any respect at all!"
"Stand back, sir!" shouted the policeman, "you must calm down now. ”
Lu Li laughed angrily, and he could hear the policeman's tone. He had lived in New York for four years, and as a foreigner, he knew the tone better than anyone. "So, are you going to ask for my confession, or are you going to decide the case now?" Lu Li didn't collide head-on, pulled away a certain distance, and said with a mocking face.
"Yes. But you'll have to wait a while!!" The policeman looked behind him, and then he saw Catherine sitting next to her, and Tony.
Brandon could sense that something was wrong, but he was an American, and even in England, he was very adept, so he couldn't understand Lu Li's feelings. He stood there and watched what happened.
The policeman's eyes looked at the driver who was lying on the ground.
The young man seemed to notice the gaze, and began to wail with his stomach in his arms, the intermittent moaning/moaning was so realistic that it was as if his ribs had really been broken, and he was rolling on the ground.
The policeman/inspector bowed his head to the walkie-talkie on his shoulder, asked for the location of the ambulance, and as he spoke, the voice of the ambulance could be heard, and it sounded just a street away. Only then did the police/inspector let go of the walkie-talkie and looked at Lu Li again, "Did you have a physical altercation just now?"
Lu Li gritted his teeth fiercely. Again, this is the case, and Asian faces in the Western world are always prone to such situations. It's not a big deal, it's just a detail—tone, demeanor, look, even judgment. It's like in the past, in elementary school teachers, when someone lost something, the teacher's eyes always fell on the student with the worst grades.
"Are you sure that's your first question? Shouldn't you ask, my relationship with the owner? And then ask if I was directly involved in the accident? And then ask if I was a bystander? Your first question is, my physical altercation? Not even if anybody was injured in the accident?"
Lu Li's words are very sharp, with the characteristic sharpness of a journalist, he is an Asian face, but he has fought for a place in the "New York Observer", and he is never afraid to face difficulties.
The policeman/inspector was directly choked, his eyes passed through Lu Li's shoulder, and he looked at the situation behind him, Brandon also noticed the abnormality at this time, walked forward, stood beside Lu Li, and paid close attention to the policeman's expression.
The policeman paused, but remained steadfast, "Don't tell me how I'm supposed to work." Otherwise, I will arrest you for obstructing the work of the police officers. Now, answer me if there was a physical altercation between you. ”
"Hey, watch your tone!" Brandon stepped up and looked at the policeman aggressively, "It's our right, not our obligation, to assist in the investigation!"
Lu Li stopped Brandon from moving forward, and he could clearly see that there was a moment of hesitation in the policeman's expression. Unlike Lu Li, Brandon is white and dressed in cowboy attire, making it impossible to tell if he is a local who works at the horse farm.
Lu Li chuckled, "This police officer, before you ask if we had a physical altercation, before you ask if I broke his ribs, can you test their alcohol concentration first? That changes the game, doesn't it?"
