Pointing to himself, he said, "...I will submit a letter of intent to volunteer to the court, and I am a professional hard drive recovery specialist."
Chen Ke couldn't understand what he was saying, nor could Master Er and Master Dong; it was like listening to gibberish.
Not to mention Lin Yong's drastic change in expression after hearing this, Inspector Gu's expression also instantly became unnatural.
They exchanged a glance and both shivered simultaneously.
In their eyes, these rich kids from the wealthiest families, while not exactly good-for-nothings, were just average. They had hobbies, enjoyed life, and studied top-notch majors, but they didn't think that rich kids could be very outstanding. After all, Nie Jiajun only went to the United States for graduate studies because Nie Zhao donated money to him.
But he actually knew the business; was he sure he could recover a formatted computer hard drive?
Even if they had no affair with Cheung Tze-keung, they were not clean in other ways.
It's unclear whether Nie Jiajun is bluffing or genuine, but if he really can, and he has applied to volunteer at the Royal Court, given the current shortage of high-tech talent in Hong Kong, then he might actually have access to their computers.
Well, the two big shots were intimidated by a mere child.
Although Chen Ke didn't understand, he realized that this little brat could really choke the big shot.
The situation was at a standstill. If Nie Zhao didn't express his opinion, it would mean that the richest family and the police station had completely broken off relations and ruptured. No one knew what the final outcome would be. But just then, Nie Zhao suddenly stood up and said, "Jiajun, don't be ridiculous. How old are you? How do you know how hard Lin Sir and the others have worked? Apologize now."
Nie Jiajun was taken aback, then crossed his arms and said, "Hmph, I won't."
Chen Rou uttered a sound: "Jiajun!"
Nie Jiajun was actually putting on an act, playing the villain, first raising the bar, then his uncle playing the good guy.
He was, after all, a deposed crown prince, so he knew a thing or two about business negotiations.
Since Chen Rou had spoken up, he took the opportunity to back down, letting go of her hand and bowing: "Lin sir, sorry."
They exchanged a glance and both Inspector Gu and Brother Lin breathed a sigh of relief.
However, the richest man's words did not ease their burden much, because he said, "Uncle Gu, Uncle Lin, everyone knows that it was Zhang Shihui who did the work. The reason you two want to make Inspector Huo a runner-up is because you feel that the public opinion impact of this matter is too great, and you want to reduce the damage to the image of the entire Royal Police Department."
He paused, then added, "But how innocent is Inspector Huo?"
Manipulating public opinion involves initially stating that the suspect is either Director Zhang or Deputy Captain Huo, and then favoring Huo Qi when reporting on the case. This allows the public's anger to be directed at the two individuals, primarily Huo Qi.
The trial will take a long time. When the verdict is finally announced, as long as another, more eye-catching piece of information is revealed to divert people's attention, the matter will be over.
Huo Qi will ultimately be acquitted, and he is indeed innocent. However, after Yu Zhengrong, the police force's image cannot afford further damage. Given the choice between the two, Inspector Gu and Brother Lin can only choose Huo Qi.
But neither of them expected that Nie Zhao would expose their thoughts and say it outright.
When he said it, Master Er immediately became indignant and laughed, saying, "So when gods fight, it's always the mortals who suffer."
When Mr. Tung wasn't arguing with him, he was a good straight man: "So the kids in Kowloon who aspire to go to police academy will be laughed at by everyone. I always advise them that the glory belongs to the superiors and the blame is on them, but they don't believe me."
Inspector Gu and Brother Lin were both embarrassed, but they didn't say anything.
Uncle Er added, "Fok Kei grew up on my turf. He started delivering newspapers at the age of 5, and at 13 he aspired to take the police academy entrance exam. Before he left, he came to me and told me that one day he would be able to change the whole of Kowloon. Now that I think about it..."
Mr. Dong said, "You shouldn't have let him deliver the newspapers. The newspapers are full of motivational platitudes from the big shots, which will ruin his brain."
The two looked at each other, then laughed and shook their heads, saying in unison, "Life is just a play."
Huo Qi was born in Kowloon and did not own two houses or have any savings like Chief Liao. He thought that because he was so poor and upright, no one could investigate him. That's why he dared to be so arrogant and trace his investigation all the way to the chief.
But in reality, when a boss really wants to get rid of him, he can fabricate a charge against him even if there's no real evidence.
However, at this moment, everyone in this small room is also in a power struggle. Because of Chen Rou's strong invitation, Master Er and Master Dong stood behind Huo Qi. It would be difficult for Inspector Gu and Brother Lin to pin the blame on him. But if they don't pin it on him, will the public disperse after the news is released? Will the citizens throw rotten tomatoes and rotten eggs at them when they go downstairs? What should they choose now?
Suddenly someone knocked on the door, and Inspector Gu's heart pounded. If he wasn't mistaken, it should be the Governor's Mansion.
The incident today has escalated to a great extent, and with the police failing to intervene for a long time, the crowd has grown larger and larger, prompting the Governor's Office to come and investigate.
The two men looked at each other, their hearts pounding with fear. They had no choice but to go outside, but they were afraid of being drowned in the spittle of the citizens.
...
At the same time, Song Yuanchao, holding his godson, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, also gazing at the police station in the distance.
He had never looked forward to his boss and his wife coming home as much as he did at this moment, only to be shocked to discover that the richest man's eldest daughter was not living a life of luxury, but was actually working very hard, because Nie Han hadn't even eaten dinner yet and was on the phone.
With such a high intensity of dealing with the media and doing publicity, it's no wonder she suddenly lost weight and is constantly losing hair.
The most energetic member of the richest family should be Xiao Ayuan.
He wanted to jump on Song Yuanchao's head and swing on his arm.
He seems to have inexhaustible energy; he plays while eating and while drinking milk.
He looks like he's dozing off right now, but you have to take it easy. As soon as Song Yuanchao stops dozing off, he'll immediately open his eyes, but his voice will be soft and childlike: "Awoo~"
Song Yuanchao finally understood that although the boss worked so hard taking care of the child, he always seemed to enjoy it.
Look at that tiny little thing, nestled in someone's arms, sleeping so peacefully and sweetly.
If you take a second look at him, you'll forget how mischievous he was during the day.
Song Yuanchao also really wanted one; he wanted to get married!
