Chapter 1089 I will cooperate with the investigation
After Chris left, Frank gestured for everyone else to leave, leaving only the three of them in the room.
William looked at Xiao Peng with a complaining look on his face: "Xiao, where have you been all this time? We're going crazy looking for you!"
"Huh?" Xiao Peng pretended to be confused and said, "I'm in the Netherlands! If you want to find me, just call me. It's not like I don't have a cell phone!"
William was very upset: "Who knows your phone number in the Netherlands?"
Xiao Peng spread his hands and said, "Many people know it, but you just don't know it."
William said helplessly: "Xiao, we are friends, right? Please don't target me like this, okay?"
Xiao Peng also had a helpless expression: "William, I'm afraid you'll tell me bad news again! Your Netherlands is so beautiful, I'm having a great time here and don't want bad news to affect my mood. Do you think it's easy for me to come out and have fun? In the end, I encountered the most terrible thing!"
Frank, who was standing nearby, hurriedly said, "Mr. Xiao, I want to thank you on behalf of the Dutch police. If it weren't for you, we don't know how long it would have taken us to uncover this shocking case! We will bring charges as quickly as possible and bring justice to the victims."
"Fair?" Xiao Peng shook his head. "It's a cultural difference. We believe in 'killing someone means paying their life, and debts mean paying them back.'"
Frank was a little embarrassed. "We probably can't do that, after all, our country has its laws. But Mr. Xiao, I have something to tell you. You still have to attend the lawsuit. After all, your evidence will have a huge impact on the verdict. Also, although the fact that you injured those people won't cause any trouble for you, you still need to report it to the court."
After hearing this, Xiao Peng said, "Okay, you can rest assured about this. This is what I should do. I promise you that no external factors will interfere with my confession! No matter where I am on this planet, as long as it is this case, no matter what I am busy with, I will come back!"
Frank sighed and said, "I really hope that tragedies like this will become less common. Who would have thought that a motorcycle could lead to such a tragedy?"
Xiao Peng thought for a moment and said, "As the saying goes, 'Ignorance is bliss.' People's perceptions vary, and these differences change with age, knowledge, and other factors. To us, it's just a motorcycle, but to them right now, it might be a matter of immense importance. Not to mention the 'dignity' that young people value most."
Xiao Peng took out a cigarette and asked, "Is it okay?"
Frank nodded and said, "Of course!"
Only then did Xiao Peng light a cigarette.
He has been fined many times in the Netherlands for his smoking habit.
In fact, he thought that smoking was not allowed in the Netherlands, and he often saw people smoking on the streets.
So Xiao Peng started smoking with them, and was then arrested by the police...
The Netherlands has a very strict smoking ban, with smoking prohibited in public places – but marijuana is allowed. Those who puff away are smoking marijuana!
It’s okay to smoke marijuana, but you’ll be fined. Xiao Peng was also drunk.
What about mixing marijuana into tobacco?
Only the tobacco will be fined.
In fact, when traveling in the Netherlands, you'll often encounter some inexplicable laws, such as the prohibition on using metal detectors. This is because if a private individual unearths treasure, it will become private property, but this will also cause losses to the country, so metal detectors are simply banned. Some places also require that nothing in the forest be picked. Not to mention wood or wild fruits, even picking up a branch will result in a fine. Want to sit on the lawn for a while? Private lawns are not a problem, but public lawns require an application before entering. Pigeon enthusiasts cannot release pigeons during the day. It's forbidden to use binoculars to view houses, vehicles, and ships. In Groningen, homeless people cannot beg. In Rotterdam, dogs cannot bark. Street performers can only perform in one place for a maximum of half an hour...
Anyway, they are all some weird laws.
Xiao Peng went birdwatching with binoculars and ended up getting fined a lot of money: the bird he was watching was perched under a tree with a car, and the police suspected he was peeking at the car...
It's like a scholar meeting a soldier - he has a point but can't explain it clearly.
William looked at Xiao Peng still smoking and got anxious: "Xiao, what are you still doing here? Aren't we leaving?"
Xiao Peng spread out his hands: "Leave? Why should I leave? My business has been resolved, why are you making me wait here for so long? Let me see what important matter is making me wait here."
William was dumbfounded. Why didn't you leave and wait here? Of course you were waiting for me here! Wasn't it because I was afraid you would run away and I couldn't find you that I deliberately told you to stay?
But I can't say this. Seeing that Xiao Peng is quite dissatisfied with me being left here, if I say that it was me who asked him to do this, wouldn't that give him another reason to quarrel with me?
Fortunately, Frank was more observant and said directly: "Mr. Xiao, I am really sorry. This is what I meant."
"Hmm?" Xiao Peng looked at Frank.
Frank explained, "Mr. Xiao, I love your culture very much, and I've had a long-standing fascination with you. I've long wanted to make friends with you. But you're a very busy man, and it's been difficult for me to meet you. This opportunity just happened to come and make friends with you."
Xiao Peng looked at Frank helplessly.
Your excuse is too contrived, isn't it? Am I three years old? It's obvious that you are helping William take the blame, okay? He really wanted to say to Frank, "Spiritual intercourse? What kind of position is that?"
But after thinking about it, I decided to forget it. After all, he is so old and still telling lies with his eyes open. It’s not easy for anyone, right?
Okay, if you speak seriously, I will listen seriously.
The most important thing is: if his ship or people want to come to Amsterdam in the future, he will have to rely on Frank for care!
It’s a value exchange!
Xiao Peng smiled and said, "Frank, I know you're busy with this case, so I can't communicate with you much. But as long as this case is not over, we will definitely meet again one day. Then we can find some time to have a good chat!"
"That's what I want!" Frank said hurriedly after hearing this.
He really wanted to make friends with Xiao Peng. If he wanted a smooth career in Western countries, it would be a good idea to have good relationships with the rich!
It’s a value exchange!
Hearing Xiao Peng say this, William hurriedly said: "Xiao, let's go, the helicopter is ready."
"Helicopter?" Xiao Peng said, "My car is still parked here!"
William hurriedly said: "It's okay, give me the car keys and I'll have someone drive it back for you!"
"I have a lot of souvenirs in my car!" Xiao Peng protested.
William said directly: "If one item is missing, I will compensate you with Huis Ten Bosch!"
Frank on the side didn't know what to say.
How did the Netherlands end up with such a prodigal king? It's one thing you gave Xiao Peng the Eikenhorst Villa, but now you're giving him Huis Ten Bosch? Do you believe the Dutch people will overthrow you?
