Chapter 61: Refusal to admit mistakes

Rodney King's case, which Xiao Yang repeatedly used the year before last to make the Los Angeles Police Department lose face, directly led to the black riots in Los Angeles, caused an uproar across the country, and even made the United States, which has always liked to interfere in other countries' human rights issues, look up to the international community, and Roman Carr, who was furious, really wanted to teach this kid a hard lesson, but knowing that the matter was very important, he had to temporarily suppress his temper and replied in a businesslike tone as much as possible: "Again, The Los Angeles Police Department does not allow and will not advocate any form of racial discrimination, and if the investigation results in some inappropriate way in the law enforcement process of those two officers, neither the police department nor I personally would mind apologizing to you in public, but! If it turns out that you're just making a fuss, then I can assure you......"

"You can't promise anything, Mr. Deputy Superintendent, but I can. Xiao Yang shook his head with a smile, "To be honest, I really admire you politicians' ability to reverse black and white and distort facts, but unfortunately, while Officer Flandi pulled me out of the car and handcuffed me in public, several reporters present used their cameras to faithfully record everything that happened at that time.www.biquge.info They will be of interest to the District Attorney's Office, as well as all media outlets! ”

Roman Carr's eyelids twitched a few times, "So what are you going to do, publicize this to the media, or even use it as evidence to take those two loyal police officers to court, along with the Los Angeles Police Department?" ”

Xiao Yang pouted, "I will, if you refuse to admit your mistake." ”

Roman Carr sneered, "Teach you a good boy, child, according to state law, in the process of police law enforcement, photos or images taken without permission are not allowed to be used as evidence in court, let alone released to the media without authorization." ”

Xiao Yang nodded unsurprisedly, "Yes, I know, but I was interviewing a reporter at the time, and these photos and recordings are part of a legal interview and are protected by freedom of the press." ”

"Then it's up to the jury to decide." Roman Carr replied coldly, and was ready to end this pointless argument here, of course he knew that this kind of innocuous warning would not stop Xiao Yang from releasing those photos to the media - provided that those photos really existed, as for the possible reaction of the media, the so-called fleas do not bite people, he and the Los Angeles Police Department have long been accustomed to similar exposures and accusations.

On the other hand, for some ulterior reason, he even wished that Xiao Yang would do it, anyway, it would not be his turn to carry the black pot after the matter was exposed, and Rick Caruso, that incompetent idiot, had sat in the position of chief police commissioner for long enough...... Of course, no one wants to see such a scene unless it is absolutely necessary, after all, the public knows about the previous battle between him and Xiao Yang, and if he really wants to make a big deal about it, it will also be a big blow to his reputation that has not yet recovered.

Xiao Yang smiled dumbly, and glanced at the two directors of the internal investigation department who were busy on the phone, and he didn't bother to wait for the results of the investigation that was destined to have no results, so he turned around and walked to the elevator, "In that case, then I can only say goodbye, Mr. Deputy Chief Superintendent, thank you for your 'special reception', I can find a way out by myself, and there is ...... Let's wait for tomorrow's paper. ”

"I will!" casually stacked a sentence of the scene, watching Xiao Yang walk into the elevator without looking back, Roman Carr's eyelids jumped a few times imperceptibly, although he was more than sixty percent sure that Xiao Yang was just bluffing, but for some reason, he always had an unspeakable worry in his heart, so after returning to his office, he picked up the phone as soon as possible.

"Bring those two bastards back to the back office, ban them from patrolling the streets until the news is over, and contact their union lawyers right away and teach them how to deal with the damn media!" After gritting his teeth, Roman Carr replied in his stomach: "Damn the yellow-skinned monkey! ”

Xiao Yang walked out of the gate of the police station, stood on the steps, looked at the police station logo on the wall on the right side of the foyer and the motto below - "To–Protect-and-to-Serve", shook his head and sneered, took out his mobile phone, flipped out the number of Ryan Collins, a reporter from USA Today, and dialed, "Mr. Cowlins? It's me, Sunny-Hsiao, no, I'm not going to change my mind, I just want to mention what happened at the police station...... Yes, I've been in contact with them, and as predicted, those bastards don't intend to admit their mistakes at all, so ...... Yes, without modification, just send it out. ”

Hanging up the phone, Xiao Yang walked down the steps with brisk steps, and went to the parking lot to retrieve his car, today is the traditional Laba Festival of the Chinese people, but as the living habits of the second generation of immigrants, the living habits of his uncle's family have long been completely Westernized, so he turned himself to a small supermarket run by Chinese Americans in Monterey Park to buy some ingredients, ready to go back to make a pot of Laba porridge for himself, in order to remember his traditional Chinese complex that is gradually fading.

When he returned to the apartment, it was still early, Xiao Yang turned on the answering machine, listened to the message, and washed the barley, buckwheat, red dates, longan and other ingredients and put them into the pot, plus when the water was on the fire, he heard someone ring the doorbell, walked over and looked through the cat's eye, was stunned for a moment, unscrewed the door, and saw seven or eight people standing in the corridor outside, there were men and women, old and young, everyone was holding a food box in their hands, and recognized that the black uncle was a neighbor who lived upstairs, and had seen a place in the stairwell when he looked at the house in the morning, I didn't know what the other party was coming for a while, so I smiled and greeted, "Good evening, everyone, this is ......"

"I take the liberty of bothering, Xiao, we don't know how the Chinese welcome their new neighbors, but the tradition here ......" The black uncle handed him the food box in his hand and smiled: "This is the apple pie that my wife baked with her own hands, I don't know if it suits your taste, please accept it, this is a little bit of our heart, thank you for everything, you saved the city, thank you, thank you very much!" ”

"Oh, thanks, that's a ...... Thank you! It means a lot to me! The greetings and care from the neighbors made Xiao Yang's heart warm, and the sullenness he had held all afternoon was suddenly swept away, and he even felt that his eyes were a little hot, "Thank you, oh, sorry, please come in." ”

After Yukan walked into the living room, the teenage boy who lived across the door handed him the cookies his parents had helped bake, and asked timidly, "Can I see your crystal ball, Shaw?" ”

"Of course...... No, because I don't need that. Xiao Yang frowned in embarrassment, then smiled, "You know, I've got something cooler for you, a traditional delicacy from China, and I bet you'll love it, come on, man!" ”
