Chapter 131

But Tian Erdai hadn't expected that shortly after takeoff, he would receive a call from that Mr. Chen.

"Tian Ritian, where have you gotten to?"

In Los Angeles it was night, but on Tian Erdai's end it was still daytime.

Looking down from the plane, all he could see were cloud layers; he couldn't even make out the ground.

"I don't know where I've gotten to either; anyway, I've been flying north the whole way, so I should be out of the Northeast by now!"

Flying from the Eastern Great Power to America requires flying north; it's not a matter of just crossing the ocean.

You have to fly north, then cross over the Arctic Ocean into Alaska, then Canada, then enter America.

This flight route is much shorter than drawing a straight line horizontally across the Pacific on a world map.

On the other end of the phone, that Mr. Chen inexplicably came out with a sentence: "When you get off the plane, bring a copy of the Criminal Code along the way — our Eastern people's Criminal Code!

A few old Mexicans have trespassed on my territory, and I now need to try them according to the law!"

What? Tian Ritian thought he'd misheard: "What did you say?

Someone trespasses on your territory and you can just try them? And, trying them according to law, shouldn't you use America's laws?

Using our Eastern people's Criminal Code, what kind of situation is that?"

Mr. Chen on the other end didn't over-explain, but just came out with a sentence: "I told you to bring the thing, just bring it.

Whatever you don't understand, you'll understand when you get here!"

Finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

But it was very obvious that Mr. Chen wouldn't act without reason; doing this obviously had its logic.

This reminded Tian Ritian of a term: Concession!

Executing Eastern people's laws on American soil — besides explaining it this way, there really wasn't any other explanation that could account for it.

But why ask him for the Criminal Code? He was on a plane! He couldn't figure it out no matter how he thought.

Since he couldn't figure it out, he stopped thinking about it, because he had backing.

So he immediately dialed his own dad's number; the phone had barely rung before it connected, showing his dad was guarding his phone waiting for his news! "Dad, just now that Mr. Chen asked me for the Criminal Code, a copy of the Eastern people's Criminal Code……"

He related his entire conversation with Mr. Chen to his dad, and couldn't help but complain: "You say he's so rich, can't he just find a local bookstore to buy one? Even if American bookstores don't have it, he calls me, but I don't have it either! And he actually came out with, bring a Criminal Code along when you get off the plane — I'm at ten thousand meters altitude, where am I supposed to find him a Criminal Code!

You say if I hadn't gotten on the plane, I'd turn right around and find him a bookstore to buy one.

But now I'm almost halfway there, where am I supposed to go find one? And, privately interrogating a few old Mexicans on American soil, he still wants legal basis.

He thinks that piece of land he bought is his Concession in America! This Mr. Chen, what on earth is he thinking?"

Dad on the other end fell silent for a while; this matter obviously he couldn't be sure about either, it wasn't his professional field!

In the end he could only spit out a sentence: "Wait for my call, I'll report upward and try, see if the higher-ups have someone send it over there!"

A professional reference like the Criminal Code, ordinary people really don't have it; only those engaged in legal work would specially keep it on hand.

Sometimes they don't even necessarily keep it, after all they're overseas, if they keep any it would be America's Criminal Code!

But Tian Ritian didn't wait long; his dad's call came back:

"Your current flight is a domestic plane; on every single domestic plane right now, the crew all have the Criminal Code prepared. You just ask them for a spare copy.

And when you get there, watch more, talk less.

Don't be in such a rush to come back!

Understood?"

Some things can't be said outright, but can't not be instructed either! But there was one sentence his dad did say outright: "Besides watching more and talking less when you get there, ask that Mr. Chen if he has any way to help you regulate your body properly.

Your physical defect, if you can go then go!"

Tian Ritian was quite open about this: "Don't worry Dad, this trip over, I'm conveniently discussing cooperation with Mr. Chen.

From now on, Mr. Chen's domestic feed sales will be my responsibility; when I make money, I'll go find the best rehabilitation institution for rehab training! But this old physical defect, I'm used to it! Okay, hanging up, I'll go ask the crew if they have the Criminal Code!"

Finished speaking, he stretched out his hand to wave over a flight attendant; the cabin crew saw and came over to ask: "Hello sir, do you need anything?"

Tian Erdai went straight to the point: "Hello, I need a copy of the Criminal Code; heard you crew all have them prepared, is that okay?"

As soon as he said this, the cabin crew's expression changed almost imperceptibly: "Okay sir, but the Criminal Code isn't a book the plane provides to passengers; you need to come with me to ask the Purser."

"Okay!"

Tian Ritian knew at once they'd misunderstood! But it wasn't convenient to explain here, so he could only nod and follow along.

As soon as they reached the work area, the Purser and Security Guard walked over tensely, both holding bright red Criminal Codes in their hands.

"This sir, you know we crew have the Criminal Code, and you need the Criminal Code.

Can you say what the reason is?

And, a solemn declaration here: no matter which country's airspace the plane is currently flying in, which country's territory, which country's airport, as long as you're still inside our aircraft cabin, it's our territory! Our country's Criminal Code still applies!"

Tian Ritian saw at once they'd misunderstood, and hurriedly explained with a smile: "No need to be tense, no situation!

Just temporarily received a task; when I get off the plane I need to take a Criminal Code with me.

Received instructions that every domestic flight's crew all have the Criminal Code prepared, that's why I came to ask you for a copy!"

Once these words were out, the tense look in the Purser and Security Guard's eyes finally relaxed; after all, the training they'd received was only for handling mid-air emergencies, they'd never been trained on how to deal with mythical legendary xuanhuan creatures.

"Good, good!"

Finished speaking, the Security Guard didn't hand over the copy in his hand, but took another spare copy from inside the cabinet and gave it to him: "Sir, this is the Eastern people's Criminal Code; it only has legal effect on Eastern people's territory!

Once out of the national border, it's no different from an ordinary book!"

……

The reason for asking Tian Ritian to get the Criminal Code was because Chen Yaozu had instructed Hu Ying to escort those Mexicans to the Gongtang, and when he was about to interrogate them, he was warned by the Talisman! Although the previous prompt told him, the Great Ming Pacification Commissioner Office exercising its function for the first time, congratulations.

But congratulating him didn't prevent warning him! 【Great Ming Pacification Commissioner Office, is a public instrument, how can it be used privately!

If you want to use it, what law serves as basis?

If there is no law to rely on, how can a public instrument have any authority and credibility!

If the Public Instrument lacks Authority and Credibility, how could it win the People's Hearts? Without the People's Hearts, how could it command Qi Luck? Please be Cautious!
