Chapter 575: A Murder Case Caused by Five Fingers
Xiao Peng didn't want to join in the fun, but Fabian insisted on seeing if what Xiao Peng said was right. He didn't believe that Xiao Peng knew that the people arguing inside were Indians without even looking, so a few of them went over to watch the fun.
Many of the tables in the restaurants here are on the street: this illegal occupation of the road seriously affects the aesthetics of the place, but people say: this is our specialty.
In fact, this is the case in many parts of Europe.
The dispute was between two tables of people sitting by the roadside: one group looked like locals, the other was clearly Indian. A man stood there mediating between the two sides. That man was Johannes, Xiao Peng's "middle-aged friend" who had just separated from him.
Xiao Peng greeted him: "Johannes, why are you here?"
Johannes replied, "This is my father's restaurant."
"So that's how it is. What happened?" Fabian asked.
Johannes sighed. "Don't mention it. I never thought something like this would happen!"
He raised his voice and explained the whole story to Xiao Peng and the others.
Why did he raise his voice? He probably wanted to let the onlookers know what was going on, so as to avoid any speculation that would affect the sound of his father's shop.
After hearing what happened, Xiao Peng just laughed out loud.
The reason for the dispute is a bit ridiculous: those German tourists and these Indian tourists all came to Johannes' father's restaurant for dinner. Johannes' father's restaurant has a good location, and it is a nice experience to sit here and eat and enjoy the scenery.
How could these two groups of strangers get into an argument? It has to do with the way they eat.
Indians eat with their hands. Although they pay more attention and sometimes use cutlery when traveling, they are still used to using their hands most of the time.
Of course, they only use their right hand to eat, and their left hand is for wiping their buttocks.
Whether Indians eat with their hands or feet is actually none of anyone else's business. But the problem is, they were sitting across from the Germans eating cheese and shrimp salad. The sticky cheese and salad dressing dangled from their hands and mouths as they grabbed a handful...it was such a beautiful sight that it easily ruined their appetite.
Of course, Indians wash their hands when eating with their hands, but can they get it clean inside their nails? They even lick their fingers after eating with all the juice and soup...
The Germans across the street were a family of five traveling together, and their three children happened to see this scene.
This incident must have left a psychological scar on the children. The children's father reminded the Indians to use tableware, and then an argument broke out between the two sides.
Indians may not be good at other things, but their bewildering self-confidence commands the admiration of the entire world, even the world's most powerful nation, Korea, which would bow down to them. Furthermore, they are incredibly fragile, and if someone says something bad about them, they'll absolutely fight back—of course, just verbally, but when it comes to actual physical action, they're the most timid of all.
The German father was just giving a polite reminder, but the Indians became arrogant when they saw that he was the only man.
This made the German very angry and he was about to beat them up, but Johannes' father stopped him.
There are people like this everywhere in the world: they become even more "capable" if someone tries to stop them. Several Indians jumped up and down and cursed the German. This went from eating with their hands to World War II, and they kept saying that the German father was a "Nazi remnant" who oppressed foreigners.
Speaking of which, the Germans are also quite unlucky. Because of the Second World War, the Germans are now cautious in what they say and do, but even so, the slightest thing will make people dig up the past of the Second World War.
Now that the quarrel has reached this point, it is even more impossible to beat them up. If we beat them up, it will really prove the Indian statement that "Nazi remnants are bullying foreigners."
Xiao Peng's laughter was so loud that it attracted the attention of the Indians. They all tilted their heads to look at Xiao Peng.
"What are you laughing at?" asked an Indian.
Xiao Peng said, "Are you sick? Do you want to interfere with others' laughter?"
The Indian was about to speak when the person next to him whispered to him, "That looks like a Chinese!"
After this sentence was said, all the Indians' expressions changed rapidly, and they all turned into expressions as if they were facing a great enemy. Xiao Peng sighed after seeing their expressions.
Okay, here we go again!
It’s not that Xiao Peng has never dealt with Indians. When he went to Sicily, he met many Indians in Palermo and felt that there were more Indians in Palermo than Italians.
These Indians are quite interesting. Logically, being all foreigners in a foreign land, it's easy for them to bond. For example, in Palermo, Xiao Peng spotted a gift shop staffed by two Indian and Pakistani people. Despite the ongoing conflict between the two countries, the Indian and Pakistani people in that gift shop were practically brothers. In situations like these, there's generally no "national hatred" or "family feuds." Being "strangers in a foreign land," it's easy for everyone to find common ground and bond together.
But the premise is that Indians should not encounter Chinese.
I don't know why, but Indians love to compare themselves with Chinese people. If you search for "Comparison between India and China" on YouTube, you'll find countless videos, all made by Indians, comparing the two countries from all aspects, and in the end, India always wins...
Xiao Peng originally wanted to buy a gift at the Sicily Gift Shop. When the Indian clerk learned that Xiao Peng was from China, he was very happy: "Your China has developed so well in recent years!"
Xiao Peng was quite happy to hear this; he finally had a sensible Indian. But his next words put Xiao Peng's joy to rest: "We in India have encountered many problems in recent years. If things continue to develop at this rate, your country's Magic City will surpass Mumbai in ten years!"
Excuse me? Xiao Peng doubted what he heard at that time.
Why are you Indians always comparing yourself to us Chinese? We Chinese have never paid attention to you, okay? Don't you know how high our standards are?
Welfare should be compared with that of Northern Europe; the environment should be compared with that of Canada; mechanical technology should be compared with that of Japan and Germany; and comprehensive national strength should be compared with that of the United States. Among so many people on the Internet who say that China is inferior to China and inferior to foreign countries, few have ever said that China should be compared with India.
Isn’t this an insult?
But in the eyes of Indians, it is a different story: they can lose to anyone on this earth, but they cannot lose to the Chinese!
Looking at the changes in the expressions of these Indians, Xiao Peng knew that these Indians were going to cause trouble for him.
Indians are like this, as soon as they meet Chinese people, they will directly transform into Saiyans...
