Chapter 264: I'll Take You All to a Good Place!

~23 min read 4,424 words

The location of the Tengda Company office building is not the best, but it can be considered a popular business district.

Suddenly, a group of people arrived downstairs, pulling banners and doing all sorts of things, attracting a crowd of onlookers in a very short time.

And seeing that there were onlookers, Fang Xiaofeng became even more energetic.

Making a scene, as many people have actually seen, if no one pays attention and it's just one person performing a one-man show, then as they keep performing, they lose their steam.

But if many people come to watch, and those who love a spectacle go to ask a question or two, then needless to say, the person will be full of energy.

"What did he do? Let me tell you, my dad, riding his bike, at the entrance of a Small Residential District, that kid was running around everywhere and crashed into my dad's bike."

"Then my dad was stopped by the boss of this Company, and they started arguing. This Company boss even pushed my dad, and as a result, my dad had a cerebral infarction and passed away before he could be sent to the hospital."

"You guys guess what he said? He actually said he wouldn't pay a single cent and told us to go sue wherever we want!"

"A perfectly fine person is gone, and now he actually says this!"

Fang Xiaofeng looked at the middle-aged woman in front of her and said: "Big sister, I'm doing this not because I want money; I just want an explanation. Can you act like this just because you have money?"

As Fang Xiaofeng spoke, she wiped away tears; truly, just that appearance made people feel pity.

The surrounding onlookers began to discuss it one after another; of course, everything they said was about how this Tengda Company upstairs was this or that.

Of course, there were also people who said that President Zhou of Tengda Company was a good person, but they were retorted as soon as they said it.

That's right, the person is already gone, and you're still saying such heartless things!

Look at what point they've been pushed to now!

Some said they shouldn't be making such a scene, but someone immediately retorted, saying that if they had any other way, they wouldn't be making a scene here.

Seeing that she seemed to have gained a lot of approval, Fang Xiaofeng was even happier.

However, looking at the building in front of her, Fang Xiaofeng felt a bit strange; why hadn't anyone from this Company come forward yet?

According to her thinking, they were making a scene here, and then before long, the Company should have come out to solve the problem quickly and invited them up to talk things over nicely.

As a result, not only did no one come down for a long time, but she also saw many food delivery people going in.

What is this for? Could it be that they have already started eating inside?

The time isn't right either; it's not time to get off work yet.

As time passed, Fang Xiaofeng couldn't shout anymore, really couldn't shout anymore, and couldn't cry anymore either.

The crowd of onlookers nearby had also dispersed; watching the spectacle is one thing, but it's almost dinner time now, so they have to go home to eat.

Besides, it was just those few sentences over and over again, and it was getting boring to watch.

There were also kind-hearted people who advised Fang Xiaofeng that making a scene here was useless and that it would be better to file a Lawsuit or hire a reporter to report it.

So, what exactly is going on here?

Fang Xiaofeng, of course, didn't know that at this very moment, inside the office building, the Employees of Tengda were eating snacks like melon seeds and peanuts while drinking sodas, watching their "making a scene" outside very comfortably.

Originally, everyone was very worried when someone was making a scene.

But unexpectedly, the boss said directly: a one-day leave for no reason; those who want to go home can go home, and those who want to stay can stay, with snacks provided.

And so... except for a few people, everyone stayed, and thus, a scene extremely rare in a modern Company appeared.

It was as if it were New Year's Day or some other holiday back in school; everyone was eating and drinking there, and some people even went up to perform a show or something.

And by the way, watching the scene below...

As Company Employees, they naturally knew the whole story; to be honest, once you really understand the situation, it's hard to empathize.

"People have died"—such an extreme thing is not something many people encounter, but things like "He's already like that, just pay a little" are things many people have heard!

Looking at whether you need to pay money, not looking at the ins and outs, but looking at the identities of both parties and the severity of the injury.

Just like the Mutual Fighting mentioned before; if someone beats you and you fight back, it's Mutual Fighting, and you have to watch the severity when you fight back; if you aren't careful and don't hold back, then just wait for it.

And in this atmosphere, Quan Longtian still couldn't help but ask: "President Zhou, are we, are we just going to watch like this?"

"Shouldn't we call the police?"

Zhou Yi smiled upon hearing this and said: "Why call the police? Even if the police officers come now, they can only persuade them; there's no good way."

"At worst, if the scene gets serious, it's just Detention, which is nothing."

Detention is nothing... if these words hadn't come out of the boss's mouth, Quan Longtian would definitely have retorted directly!

But the boss is the boss, and whatever the boss says is right.

"So, don't ask me anymore; go find our Lawyer Huo; he definitely knows what to do."

Lawyer Huo?

Huo Pengfei, who had just finished an insurance dispute lawsuit, was pondering as he looked at the situation below.

It wasn't his first time seeing people making a scene; such situations are truly too common, but to be honest, these few people below don't count for anything.

Everyone knows that to make a scene, you need a lot of people.

It's just that he didn't quite understand why President Zhou still hadn't called the police, as this had clearly affected the Company's production and business order.

Just then, he heard someone calling him.

"President Quan? You mean President Zhou asked you to come and ask me? How could I..."

Just as he was about to say "How could I possibly know," Huo Pengfei suddenly thought of a phrase the two of them often said when watching Zhou Yi's videos before.

"Either don't do it, or do it thoroughly!"

Before starting, I will give you many chances; if you seize even one, you will be fine, but once I decide to start, whatever you say will be useless.

The two of them didn't just say it; they also did it!

So now, Huo Pengfei immediately thought of Zhou Yi's idea. That's right, how can one solve the problem once and for all?

If you send them inside, then no one will come to make a scene anymore.

Oh, if someone else comes to make a scene because these people were sent inside, then send them in too, the so-called sons and grandsons without end...

What is all this? Huo Pengfei shook his head; ever since joining this Company, his thinking had become a bit chaotic.

"President Quan, President Zhou means for us to pay attention to securing evidence."

"It's not just about filming videos; you must also find all the impacts caused by them making trouble outside, and they must be impacts that have a causal relationship in the strict sense—the more serious, the better!"

"If one day isn't enough, then two days, three days; you can also find people to film videos and post them online. In short, General Manager Quan, just listen to me."

This kind of situation where people come to your door to make trouble, on the surface, it seems like it can't be covered by a Criminal Law charge.

However, there is another charge; as long as you can't fit it into other charges, then putting it into this one is definitely correct.

That is the crime of Picking Quarrels and Provoking Trouble; if you remove the "crime," it is the act of picking quarrels and provoking trouble.

For many law students, or legal practitioners, this charge is one of the most special charges.

Its specialty lies in its uncertainty.

Even though there are now many specific Judicial Interpretations, many legal practitioners are still confused about exactly to what degree an act of picking quarrels and provoking trouble must reach to be considered a crime.

In fact, those who understand the law know that when the law is certain, everything is fine; what is most feared is this kind of vague scope.

Zhou Yi and Lawyer Fang have chatted a lot about the crime of Picking Quarrels and Provoking Trouble, and Lawyer Fang introduced that the predecessor of this charge was the original Crime of Hooliganism.

But because of some reasons, the Crime of Hooliganism became a "Pocket Crime," so the Crime of Hooliganism was abolished, but the crime of Picking Quarrels and Provoking Trouble was created.

And don't underestimate it; for those who have those four types of behavior, as long as they reach the standard of "vile circumstances," "Serious Circumstances," or "serious disruption of public order," it will be a Fixed-term Imprisonment of less than five years.

Note, it is five years.

Moreover, Criminal Law Amendment Eight further stipulates that those who gather others to repeatedly commit acts of picking quarrels and provoking trouble, seriously disrupting social order, shall be sentenced to Fixed-term Imprisonment of not less than five years but not more than ten years!

Therefore, according to Lawyer Fang's description, this is a charge that is easily overlooked, but the maximum penalty reaches ten years.

However, Huo Pengfei does not believe it can really reach more than five years; basically, except for some special circumstances, it will not be sentenced according to this.

Unless it is a serious disruption of social order in the true sense.

So don't be anxious, let you make trouble, we will absolutely not stop you, but if you can realize that you shouldn't have come to make trouble, then there will be no problem.

Thinking this through, even Huo Pengfei really wanted to say, as expected, General Manager Zhou is still that General Manager Zhou.

It's just that I don't know if General Manager Zhou has any thoughts on the storm online.

He has read that article, and to be honest, Old Huo feels that the other party should be trying their best to achieve "how to earn money while standing," but unfortunately, there is only one Zhang Mazi in this world.

In Old Huo's view, these operations of the other party are another case of a "big smarty."

You repeated what General Manager Zhou said, but you shouldn't have used so many inflammatory words.

It's probably a common problem with Self-Media, but if there weren't those words, he would be truly completely neutral and objective, which is also impossible.

Anyway, in Old Huo's eyes, he himself has many ways to file a Lawsuit against the other party, the simplest being Defamation of Reputation.

Don't say you didn't point to a specific person; you only need to be able to recognize who it is at first glance through your conditions, then that is equivalent to saying the name directly.

For several days in a row, making trouble downstairs at the office building every day, hanging all kinds of banners, not only did the other party not react, they actually didn't even call the police.

Fang Xiaofeng's courage grew; she felt that this General Manager Zhou was just like that, nothing more than stubbornly holding on because he didn't want to pay.

Since that's the case, she would just go directly into the office building.

"Anyway, this is what your boss owes my family. I'll just stay in this building. I'm not leaving, and don't you think about leaving either."

She had already made up her mind; as long as Zhou Yi wanted to get off work and go home, she would stop him and absolutely not let him leave.

On Zhou Yi's side, the video was posted online, and it caused a lot of discussion. Everyone is quite curious about one point now: in the face of such rogue-like behavior, what can we do?

Call the police?

Many say that calling the police for such behavior seems useless; they haven't done anything illegal either.

Then, are we really helpless in the face of rogue behavior?

Thus, on an afternoon, Fang Xiaofeng finally saw Zhou Yi.

"So you didn't die. I thought you were dead. What's the matter, do you want to pay now?"

Looking at Zhou Yi opposite her, Fang Xiaofeng looked at the few relatives beside her, with a bit of smugness on her face.

See, it's still useful to come and make trouble. You post a few messages online, file a Lawsuit or whatever, it's all useless, a waste of money.

We've only been here a few days, and he can't hold on anymore.

The few relatives together on the side, along with Fang Fengyu who arrived later, also nodded. The person is gone, but you can't just let it go like this; you have to... right? Have some value.

These words sound uncomfortable, but that is the thought of many people.

Many filial sons and grandsons can't wait to squeeze out every bit of value from the elderly.

Don't worry about whether I was filial when I was alive; anyway, look at how hard I am working to seek justice for my father after he passed away.

Zhou Yi shook his head upon hearing this and said: "No, I'll say it again: I won't give a single cent. By the way, didn't you record it? It doesn't matter, I can say it again when you're ready."

Fang Xiaofeng's smug face suddenly froze: "Not giving? Why wouldn't you give? Our family is already like this, why wouldn't you give!"

"If you hadn't argued, would my dad be gone? I don't care, you must pay compensation, otherwise I will come every day."

Fang Fengyu on the side also said: "Exactly, you're such a big boss, what's wrong with paying some money? General Manager Zhou, one shouldn't be so heartless."

"We don't understand those legal matters, but a human life, not giving a single cent, that doesn't make sense."

Zhou Yi nodded: "Okay, I know. Then I'm going out now, you move out of the way first."

"Go out? Dream on!" Fang Xiaofeng roared: "A few days ago we let you slip out the back door, but today we have blocked the back door. I'm telling you, don't think about leaving until you solve the problem."

As she spoke, she stepped forward aggressively as if to grab Zhou Yi, and the Tengda Company security guards nearby hurried up to separate the two.

As a result, they were stopped by Zhou Yi.

"No need to worry. You let her come up and try to touch me. You want to use your hands, right? Please hurry up, I'm in a rush."

These words directly made Fang Xiaofeng lose her temper, but she indeed didn't go up to use her hands.

"Want me to use my hands and then call the police to arrest me? You think I don't understand? I won't use my hands; today, wherever you go, we go!"

Hearing this, a strange look appeared on Zhou Mouren's face: "Really? Wherever I go, you go? Absolutely following?"

"Absolutely following. I'm telling you, if you don't pay, we will follow you like this. Anyway, this matter must have an explanation."

Zhou Mouren directly omitted those words that followed.

"Alright then, let's go. I'm going to a place, you guys take my car. It's fine, with our relationship, there's no need to worry about anything."

Now it was Fang Xiaofeng's turn to mutter to herself; what was up with this guy? We've been causing a scene at his Company for days now.

It could be said that Tengda Company hadn't been operating normally for these past few days.

And now, wanting to follow him around everywhere, he still had this attitude?

Zhou Yi had already walked a few steps away, and seeing no one following, he turned around and said, "What's wrong, too scared? Is that all?"

The lethality of those last two words was immense. Fang Xiaofeng gritted her teeth and said, "Let's go, get in his car. I don't believe it; this is a society ruled by law, what could he possibly dare to do to us!"

The other relatives were clearly a bit afraid, but at this point, they were riding a tiger and couldn't get off.

Fang Fengyu hesitated and said, "Xiaofeng, this… maybe we shouldn't follow him after all."

Fang Xiaofeng shouted, "Brother, look at you, you can't even hold your ground. He's just trying to scare us. If we don't even dare to do this, how are we going to get the money?"

Hearing this, Fang Fengyu could only nod, following Zhou Yi, preparing to get into Zhou Yi's car.

There were quite a few people, and they couldn't all fit in Zhou Yi's car.

But it didn't matter; the thoughtful Manager had already prepared a van.

"Let's go. I'm telling you, you're guaranteed to be surprised by that place," Zhou Mouren chuckled.

…………

At the Guangming District Zhonglou Police Station, Officer Lao Zhou stretched his back; grassroots work was always this busy.

He had mediated several disputes today, and his throat was parched from all the talking.

Although it was said that one is like a brick, to be moved wherever needed, still, who wouldn't want to handle real cases? Who wouldn't want to earn merit?

Thinking of big cases, he thought of a certain handsome guy he knew. Sigh, he would probably never encounter a case like that again in this lifetime.

Just as he was thinking this, he saw a van drive into the Police Station courtyard. Lao Zhou stood up and walked to the entrance, then discovered that a very familiar-looking handsome guy was stepping out of the car carrying a handbag.

He was calling out, "Everyone take it slow, don't get hurt. Come down and follow me, we're going in… oh, good afternoon, old comrade."

Fang Xiaofeng and her group behind him were already stunned. They had imagined many scenarios for what would happen next.

For example, the other party dragging them to an abandoned factory, then beating them or threatening them in various ways.

It could even be something else…

But after thinking of countless consequences, they never imagined they would be brought straight to the Police Station!

What kind of situation was this!

And he was being so polite, so concerned about them?

For a moment, Fang Xiaofeng was a bit confused.

Looking up, she saw an old police officer with a dark expression standing at the entrance of the Police Station.

Lao Zhou looked at Zhou Yi with a dark face. He used to call him "Uncle Zhou" so happily, and now he had turned around and called him "old comrade."

Am I old?

"Young man, what are you here for?"

As Lao Zhou spoke, he looked at the handsome guy's handbag; a familiar sense of déjà vu welled up in his heart!

This feeling, could it be…

"Old comrade, I'm here today to report a case."

Sure enough, that was the feeling!

Lao Zhou nodded on the surface and said, "Reporting a case? Fine, come in. Who are these people…"

"They…" Zhou Yi looked back at the bewildered Fang Xiaofeng, then said, "They are also the subjects of the report."

Lao Zhou: "???"

I remember the last time and the time before that when you came, you only brought evidence to report a case. This time, you actually brought the "suspects" along to report the case?

Doesn't doing this make us look very awkward? It's like we're just sitting in the station, and not only does the case come to our door, but you even brought the people to us?

Also, what's up with their bewildered state? Why does it feel like they still haven't figured out the situation?

Lao Zhou had a belly full of questions, but he forcibly suppressed them and said, "Fine, then come in together."

At this moment, Fang Xiaofeng finally figured it out. This isn't right, he's here to report a case, so is he trying to get us arrested?

But on what grounds? What did we do wrong?

The Police Station can't just be unreasonable, right?

The other relatives were also full of fear. Not to mention the Regret Chair, just this place itself had a buff that increased the "regret rate" by fifty percent.

They felt they hadn't done anything wrong, but after coming here and seeing this scene, they were very afraid. Someone said, "Xiaofeng, um, maybe we should leave first."

Fang Xiaofeng hesitated for a moment, nodded, and turned to leave.

As a result, they were blocked.

The one blocking them was a young police officer. He had only intended to stop them so they could go in and explain the situation.

After all, someone wanted to report a case, and this reporter always brought very detailed evidence every time in the past.

The police have the authority to have citizens cooperate with an investigation.

As a result, before he could even open his mouth, the few people saw him blocking them, got scared, and one of the relatives turned and ran!

Fang Fengyu was also afraid. Seeing someone run, his brain hadn't even processed it before his feet moved on their own, and he also ran outward.

Damn it!

The young police officer was stunned. What kind of place is this? You're here, and you want to run in front of me?

Who do you think I am? Do you think my five-kilometer run training was for nothing?

Only two people ran. Fang Xiaofeng didn't dare to run; she felt she couldn't get away, and the key was that no matter how she thought about it, she felt she hadn't done anything wrong.

The young police officer chased after them directly, reporting as he chased.

Soon, several police officers came out from inside and subdued Fang Xiaofeng and the others.

If you don't run, it's impossible to take any measures against you in this situation, but if you run, then sorry…

"Hurry and get in there, still running, where do you think you're running to!"

Facts prove that in front of professionals, you really shouldn't run; if you run into those veteran police officers, they might look quite old, but they can run you until you vomit, you know.

To avoid problems during the arrest, they will maintain a rhythm behind you, and when they see you slowing down, they will speed up to urge you on, running you directly until you have no strength left.

As a result, in less than two minutes, the young police officer brought the person back.

He was still laughing loudly, saying: "You tell me, where was it not good to run, but the place next to the next door is the Armed Police Brigade, and you ran into their courtyard..."

Seeing colleagues gathering around, the young officer continued: "It just so happened that the brothers of the First Brigade were training, I shouted once, and they all rushed over, that scene..."

Although the young officer didn't say it, the other colleagues could all imagine it: one police officer, chasing someone who didn't know if they had committed a crime into the Armed Police courtyard, with a bunch of people training.

And then, the police officer behind shouted for help to catch the person.

Just thinking about it feels exciting.

At this moment, Fang Fengyu's face was filled with questions like "Who am I, where am I."

He didn't know what had happened either; he only remembered that he had run out in a panic and rushed into a large courtyard when he saw one.

Then the police officer behind didn't catch up, and he was just feeling puzzled.

As a result, once the other party called out, a bunch of men in camouflage uniforms, full of vigor and vitality, rushed out from the front and scrambled to take him down...

He still hasn't come to his senses now; what exactly did I do wrong that required so many people in camouflage uniforms to catch me?

Wait, it seems I didn't commit any offense.

Then why was I running?

At this very moment, inside the Police Station, hearing the news that the people had all been brought back, Lao Zhou felt relieved.

That was a close call; if they had really let the person get away, their Police Station would have been scolded to pieces by their superiors.

Especially if this case had already undergone Case Filing...

Others have already brought the person to your courtyard and you still let them run away?

Fortunately, the young men's combat effectiveness is still quite good.

"Zhou Yi, come, tell me, what exactly is the situation, is your evidence complete here?" Lao Zhou asked.

Zhou Yi had already started taking things out, saying as he did so: "Uncle Zhou, I guarantee the evidence is complete, look..."

"Over the course of five days, their people became more and more numerous, hanging banners, cursing the Company, and some even went up to kick the doors, shouting all kinds of slogans; the Company hasn't been able to operate normally these past few days, and the order of production and life has been severely disrupted..."

A big chapter; I mentioned it in the group, it was already nearly nine o'clock when I arrived at the hotel on my business trip, I didn't expect to actually produce a big chapter, hehehe, very sorry for updating at this hour.

Thanks to Book Friend 2019, Yuan Zhouxu, Fuchen, Tianxia Laoku, Wenchidage, Baicaomangsha, Aichiroude Pingguo, Feimaowuyu, Book Friend 2022, thank you brothers for the tips.
