Chapter 472: He is a Foreigner!

After hesitating for a moment, Zhou Yi still chose the pork trotter rice; although the pork trotter rice here was not as good as the one over at Yuefu Residential Quarter, it was still decent.

Arriving at the eatery, he ordered the pork trotter rice and started playing on his phone while waiting; before long, an extremely delicious portion of pork trotter rice was served.

No need to hesitate, just start eating!

While eating, Zhou Yi thought about how to deal with that "My Buddha is Merciful"; every time he posts a video, he starts talking about being kind...

But thinking about it carefully, there is no defamation, no insults, and no specific plot, so there should be no legal way to handle it.

It just makes people very uncomfortable.

Because he was eating, it was inconvenient to have the Sports Camera hanging on his chest, so he placed it to the side.

He was so engrossed in eating that Zhou Yi did not notice that there were more and more people in the eatery, and two people sat down behind his chair.

We generally have this feeling often when going to small eateries to eat; the space left between two tables is too small.

If two relatively thin people sit down, that would be fine, but if two fat people sit there, it will be very crowded.

At this time, both sides must cooperate with each other; otherwise, they will squeeze people so they cannot eat.

Because of this, there are quite a few conflicts in restaurants.

Some people feel as if they are very special and keep squeezing, causing the person behind them to become dissatisfied, and then a conflict arises.

Zhou Yi was originally tucking in; do not do unto others what you would not have them do unto you. He himself does not like being squeezed while sitting inside, so he was not taking up too much space at the moment.

As a result, just as he was eating, he suddenly lurched toward the tabletop.

There is no need to think to know that someone sat down behind him and even gave a direct shove.

He had encountered such things before; although he now had a system, Zhou Yi still tried his best not to cause trouble in reality.

So Zhou Yi just looked back while shifting his chair.

As a result, he saw that the person sitting behind him was indeed a bit fat, but that was not the point; the point was that the person was very dark all over.

That was not a tan from the sun; one could tell at a glance that he was a Black person, just what we usually call a foreigner.

And sitting opposite that foreigner was a young girl; the two were saying something in a foreign language that Zhou Yi could only barely understand.

There was no help for it; he was not good at this to begin with, and in the past, he had only learned it to cope with exams.

After entering university, he stopped paying attention to it and slowly forgot it.

Seeing Zhou Yi look over, both of them stopped talking, and the foreigner even looked back.

Zhou Yi pointed at the chair behind him, then pointed at the other person's chair, and said, "Stop squeezing, this place is only this big!"

The two people behind looked and then withdrew their gazes, and Zhou Yi naturally turned back around to sit down.

He did not expect it to be a foreigner, but it did not matter; the girl should tell him what he said, right?

After all, he did not know if the other party could understand his words...

Yet unexpectedly, just after he had eaten a few mouthfuls, he felt himself being squeezed again from behind.

Zhou Yi was suddenly a bit uncomfortable; even if it is crowded here, I already let you have it once, and I even told you, yet you are still squeezing?

Zhou Yi immediately stood up and said in a slightly louder voice, "Hey friend, can you stop squeezing? You are not the only person here!"

Hearing Zhou Yi's voice, the two people behind looked over again; the Black foreigner did not say anything, but the girl shouted with a look of dissatisfaction, "What are you yelling for? Can't you speak properly if you have something to say!"

She paused and then added, "And can't you just make way? There are empty seats over there; can't you sit over there? Charlie is not a local."

"Still yelling there, are you trying to lose face in front of a foreigner?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yi was stunned; what does this mean? He is not a local, so I must make way for him?

He subconsciously wanted to check the time; is this not 2022, but a hundred years ago?

There are actually such talents!

However, this kind of thing really cannot be argued, so Zhou Yi still tried hard to think of what he had learned back then, preparing to say a foreign phrase to make the other party understand his meaning.

Sigh, he should have learned more foreign languages when he was in school.

As a result, just as he was preparing to say something, he saw the Black man opposite open his mouth, speaking a string of words he could not understand.

The girl beside him finally translated this time: "Charlie said he was just adjusting his position; the space is too small and it is uncomfortable to sit."

"So he didn't squeeze you, you need to apologize to him!"

What the hell? I was squeezed, and then I should apologize?

Zhou Yi said directly, "Then you tell him that he did indeed squeeze me, and he should be the one apologizing to me."

As a result, unexpectedly, the girl opposite started yelling again, "Are you sick? He is a foreigner; you yelled like that for no reason, shouldn't you apologize?"

"I finally know why our country is always looked down upon by others; with people like you who have no manners, yelling at every turn, it would be strange if we were respected!"

Zhou Yi: "???"

"Wait, what are you saying? Who did wrong? It was his fault, and now you are forcing me to apologize just because he is a foreigner?"

The girl's name was Han Juan, and she was feeling extremely irritable right now.

She had brought her foreign friend out for a meal, but she did not expect to run into such a person.

In their circle, it is considered an honor to know foreign friends; if you go out with a foreign friend by your side, it seems like you are a different person.

And if you can have a foreign boyfriend, that will make many people envious!

As a result, she did not expect that going out to eat today would be ruined; the man opposite started yelling at every turn and would not apologize!

He is a foreigner!

She knew that her friend Charlie might not be that good at speaking Mandarin, but he could understand it.

It is truly a disgrace...

She did not know why, but many people attach great importance to the evaluations foreigners have of us; once they see something known to foreigners, they immediately get agitated, thinking it is a disgrace.

With this bad mood, her tone was naturally very sharp.

"A loser like you, have you ever been abroad? You probably won't have a chance in this lifetime, look at your appearance!"

Zhou Yi was naturally unconvinced by these words, and the two sides started arguing.

Some of the other people in the restaurant were watching, while others began to try and mediate, but the moment they opened their mouths, the tone was a bit pungent.

"Young man, that is a foreigner after all; just apologize and let it go, let's not lose face, right?" said a man who was slightly older.

"That's right, young man, stop arguing, it's just a matter of one sentence, just apologize."

Zhou Yi retorted directly upon hearing this: "So you all think that just because he is a foreigner, I must apologize?"

The person who had been trying to persuade him was stumped by the retort and could only start complaining there.

As it happened, at this very moment, something unexpected occurred.

That Charlie, whom he thought couldn't understand a word being said, directly extended his middle finger, followed by a sentence that he, Zhou Mouren, would never forget.

f**kyou……

What followed was somewhat stiff Mandarin, and it was asking Zhou Yi if he knew how to be polite, and why everyone here was like this?

Honestly, when many people come into contact with a foreign language, the first things they learn are definitely swear words, and they learn them very fluently.

Zhou Mouren is of course no exception; even if he had returned everything he learned back to his teachers, he would never forget this phrase.

One can hear this phrase in many classic European and American action movies; it is very familiar.

But the problem is, this person could understand what he was saying, yet had been pretending not to, and after he finished speaking the first time, the man had squeezed over again.

Seeing that both of them were there cursing, Zhou Yi did not intend to speak anymore; there was no need to speak at this time.

There is no need to argue online, and even less need to argue in reality.

Because arguing has no results, and furthermore, he could not out-argue the other party; they were two people cursing together.

There were also those people on the side trying to persuade him, all of them urging him to stop arguing.

Some even said he was losing face...

So Zhou Yi directly took out his phone and called the police.

Han Juan, on the other side, seeing Zhou Yi call the police, said even more disdainfully: "Still calling the police, go ahead, I want to see how they will handle it!"

Relying on their status to act recklessly, because this was a foreigner!

Not long after, Lao Liu, a police officer from the Guangming Road Police Station, arrived.

"Who called the police?"

After asking, he caught sight of Zhou Yi standing to the side and said, somewhat speechless: "Manager Zhou, it's you again, what happened this time?"

Zhou Yi explained the situation: "I don't even know what's going on, these two acted like they were crazy, squeezed me, and insisted that I apologize."

Lao Liu was also very helpless; they really had no way to handle this kind of matter.

It was not just because Charlie was not a local, but because in normal circumstances, this kind of argument is handled through persuasion and Mediation.

Since no physical blows were exchanged, there was no way they could do much.

So they could only try to persuade, and Zhou Yi had no other choice in this situation.

The pork trotter rice could not be eaten; Zhou Mouren got up and left the restaurant directly, feeling very stifled.

In fact, the girl who kept talking made him even more annoyed; she kept bringing up "face" at every turn, as if that Charlie were somehow superior.

Forget it, let's just go back first.

All the way home, he felt as if he had forgotten something; suddenly he remembered, when he was eating the pork trotter rice earlier, he had placed his Sports Camera on the table because he felt it was in the way.

Then he had an argument with those two and completely forgot about that thing!

It cost tens of thousands; although he has money now, that doesn't mean he can just throw away something worth tens of thousands.

He hurried back to the restaurant to look for it.

Fortunately, it was quite close from home, and Zhou Yi arrived at the restaurant in ten minutes, heading straight for his table.

Unsurprisingly, the Sports Camera was not there.

He hurried to the counter and said: "Hello boss, I'd like to ask, when your waiters were clearing the table, did they see a camera on it?"

"It looks like this, black..."

Zhou Yi found a Photo of the Sports Camera from his phone to let the boss at the counter identify it.

The boss had a deep impression of Zhou Yi, after all, he had almost gotten into a conflict with a foreigner in his shop just a moment ago.

After looking, he immediately called the waiters over and asked if they had seen it.

Several waiters shook their heads, indicating they hadn't seen it.

"Young man, is this thing expensive? The waiters in my shop have been here a long time, they shouldn't have taken it," the boss then asked.

Zhou Yi shook his head and said: "Boss, I have to tell you, this camera cost tens of thousands when I bought it, it's not cheap. If someone in your shop picked it up, please bring it out, I am willing to provide a reward."

He had picked up a phone before, so Zhou Yi knew that if you ask someone to return your things, you have to show some appreciation.

And this appreciation doesn't need to be brought up by others; you have to offer it yourself.

Although the law states that one must return lost property, and even bear responsibility if it is damaged.

But in reality, you cannot be that shameless, because you lost the item yourself, so you cannot take it for granted when someone finds it.

Compensation is the best way!

And Zhou Yi offered one thousand right off the bat!

A camera worth tens of thousands, and he actually just forgot it on the table?

And now he is offering compensation, giving one thousand just like that.

The restaurant boss couldn't help but sigh, it's really good to be rich.

But there was still no result in this situation, so the boss said: "How about this, I'll help you check the Monitoring."

Normally, many places actually don't allow people to check Monitoring at will, but that's just talk.

The Monitoring in the shop can still be checked, especially when a customer loses something, they will check the Monitoring to see.

This boss has been running the restaurant for quite a while, so in this situation, he would definitely help check the Monitoring.

Soon the Monitoring was pulled up, and looking through the timeline, finally, Zhou Yi saw it.

After he left, Charlie and the girl also left, and before leaving, Charlie seemed to have noticed the camera on his table, then just picked it up and took it away.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Mouren even wondered if the system's Intelligence-Lowering Halo had activated again; was he fated with this foreigner or what!

They inexplicably crowded him and started an argument, even called the police, and now they have taken his camera.

This kind of behavior, of course, does not count as theft.

Because he forgot the item there, the other party taking it cannot be considered stealing.

The key is, where is he supposed to find these two people?

This is also the problem many people face nowadays after losing something; they cannot find the person.

Even if there is Monitoring, it is still very difficult to find someone, because you are not the Public Security Bureau, and even if you have the Monitoring, you do not know who the other party is.

But he cannot just lose his camera like this...

After thinking for a moment, Zhou Yi took out his phone and called Huo Pengfei.

After hearing Zhou Yi's words, Huo Pengfei quickly provided a suggestion.

"General Manager Zhou, you still need to find the Police Station to determine the other party's identity; after all, we have no way to confirm their identity."

Theoretically speaking, if an item is lost and picked up by someone else, taking this evidence to report it to the police can allow the police to help determine the identity.

But this is not absolutely certain, so it still depends on the situation.

Zhou Yi hung up the phone, thought for a moment, and then called Chen Li; he was relatively familiar with this police officer.

Thanks to another new big brother, Feimaowuyu big brother, Wenchidage, Sony big brother, Xiaoyan big brother; the updates have been lackluster for four days in a row. No, I must stimulate myself. Ten thousand words tomorrow. If I don't finish, I will give out a one-hundred-yuan red envelope in the group for every missing word. I have been too slack lately.
