Chapter 97 I'm Going to Smash the Sign
When Hu Biao entered the small conference room on the second floor of the Huanghe Road Police Station, there were already people in the room.
Lu Zhenhua was sitting by the window. When he saw him come in, he glanced at him expressionlessly.
Sitting next to me was a middle-aged man in a police uniform, with high-ranking epaulets and sharp eyes. He was looking down at his phone, and the screen displayed Hu Biao's Weibo post.
Next to him was an old man in his sixties wearing a Zhongshan suit. His hair was neatly combed, his face looked kind, and his eyes revealed shrewdness. He was Luo Zhenkun, the president of the Traditional Martial Arts Association.
There was also a younger man, dressed casually, sitting in a corner with a laptop in front of him, as if he were taking notes.
The middle-aged man in police uniform looked up, his gaze falling on Hu Biao, then turning to Xiao Zhou beside him. His tone was calm but authoritative: "Young comrade, this is a matter for the Garrison Command. Your people from the police station, please step out for a moment. We'll talk privately."
Xiao Zhou nodded and was about to turn around when Hu Biao spoke.
"etc."
Everyone looked at him.
Hu Biao stood still, his gaze sweeping over the people in the room, finally settling on the middle-aged man in police uniform: "You are—?"
The middle-aged man paused for a moment, then said, "Huang Yao, the director of the Sixth Division of the Imperial Capital Garrison."
"Director Huang, hello." Hu Biao nodded and then said, "I am the one who reported the case and also a party involved in this case. I reported the case to the police, and the police officers who responded were from the Huanghe Road Police Station. The case is also in their hands."
According to the "Law on Penalties for Administration of Public Security" and the regulations on procedures for handling administrative cases by public security organs, the police station is the handling unit in this case, and their presence is a legally required procedure.
Huang Yao's eyebrows twitched almost imperceptibly.
Hu Biao continued, "I'm not clear about the relationship between the Garrison Command and this case, but I reported the case to the local police station, the police station responded to the call, and the police station took my statement. The case is still under investigation, and the police officers from the local police station were present and were simply performing their duties according to the law. If you feel you need to speak privately, we can wait until the procedures at the police station are completed before I cooperate with you."
He spoke in a calm tone, without any provocation, simply stating his facts.
But the content of those words silenced the room for a few seconds.
Lu Zhenhua lowered his head, his lips twitching.
Huang Yao looked at him, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes, then smiled: "Little Hu, you have a strong sense of the law."
"Of course," Hu Biao said. "For college students in the new era, abiding by laws and regulations is a basic quality."
Huang Yao turned to Xiao Zhou: "Where is your case at now?"
Xiao Zhou, having regained his composure, said seriously, "The interrogation of the complainant, Hu Biao, has been completed. The other party, Zhao Pohai, is currently in the hospital and cannot give a statement at this time. We have contacted the hospital, and once his condition stabilizes, we will arrange for police officers to conduct the interrogation. At the same time, we have also contacted the hotel to retrieve surveillance footage and access control records to verify how Zhao Pohai obtained the room key and entered the room. Once all these materials are collected, we will determine the nature of the case based on the injury assessment results."
He paused, glanced at Hu Biao, and said, "According to procedure, we are still in the investigation and evidence collection stage, and have not yet reached the mediation stage."
Huang Yao nodded and said nothing more.
Luo Zhenkun then spoke up, his tone amicable: "Student Hu, I am Luo Zhenkun, the president of the Traditional Martial Arts Association. Tonight's incident was a misunderstanding. Our association's internal staff mishandled the situation, causing you trouble. On behalf of the association, I apologize. Could we take this opportunity to sit down and talk about how to resolve this matter?"
Hu Biao looked at him but didn't say anything.
Luo Zhenkun continued, "Zhao Pohai is a veteran of our association. It was indeed inappropriate for him to go to you tonight. But his initial intention was to prevent problems from arising during the exchange competition the day after tomorrow. There was an accident in Zhalun, and he got injured, so he might not be able to participate in the competition the day after tomorrow. Old Zhao was also anxious and worried about the association's reputation, so he privately approached you to discuss it, hoping you would voluntarily withdraw from the competition. As a result, the discussion didn't go well, and a conflict ensued. Our association will definitely take responsibility for this. Do you think we could sit down and talk things over?"
After listening, Hu Biao remained silent for a few seconds, then asked, "Zhalun is injured?"
Luo Zhenkun couldn't hide it any longer and nodded, saying, "Yes, it was an accidental injury!"
As for what the accident was, he didn't go into details. After all, it was too unbelievable and too shameful for a martial arts master to do such a thing!
Hu Biao turned to Huang Yao: "Director Huang, are you aware that Zhalun is the Thai athlete in this exchange competition, and that he was injured?"
Huang Yao's expression remained unchanged: "I just heard about it."
Hu Biao then looked at Luo Zhenkun: "When was he injured?"
Luo Zhenkun hesitated for a moment: "Tonight—around five or six o'clock."
"Around five or six o'clock," Hu Biao repeated, then laughed. "I was cornered in my hotel room by your people at nine o'clock. There's a three or four-hour time gap in between. In other words, after Zhalun was injured, your first priority wasn't to deal with the emergency, notify the supervisory unit, or communicate with the Thai side. Instead, you discussed it briefly and then sent someone to find me and tell me to withdraw from the competition. Is that right?"
Hu Biao sneered, "Do you think I'm a pushover? The easiest one to bully?"
Luo Zhenkun's expression changed, and just as he was about to say something, there was a knock on the door.
Xiao Zhou went to open the door, and there stood a middle-aged man in a suit, in his thirties, with a thin face, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, and carrying a briefcase.
"Hello, I am Mr. Hu Biao's lawyer, my surname is Chen, Chen Mingyuan." He flashed his lawyer's license. "I heard my client is here, so I came to check on things."
Hu Biao smiled: "Attorney Chen, you've arrived. Did my father send you?"
Chen Mingyuan nodded: "President Hu called me. I live a bit far away, so I didn't dare to drive fast at night, which caused a slight delay."
He walked into the mediation room, his gaze sweeping over the people inside, then stopped next to Hu Biao and asked in a low voice, "How's the situation?"
Hu Biao said a few words in a low voice, and Chen Mingyuan nodded. Then he looked at Xiao Zhou and said, "Officer, I am Hu Biao's lawyer. According to the law, I need to understand the case and participate in subsequent mediation or litigation procedures. What stage is the case at now?"
Old Zhou briefly explained the situation.
After listening, Chen Mingyuan nodded, then looked at Huang Yao and Luo Zhenkun: "And you two are?"
Huang Yao gave a brief introduction, then looked at Hu Biao with a curious, spectator-like gaze.
Luo Zhenkun's expression grew even uglier; clearly, this kid was going to seize this opportunity to escalate things.
Chen Mingyuan spoke calmly but clearly: "Director Huang, Chairman Luo, I am Mr. Hu Biao's lawyer. From now on, I will represent my client in all matters concerning this case. My client was attacked in his home tonight, and his personal safety was seriously threatened. This is a typical public security case, and it may even constitute a criminal case. My client has reported the incident to the police station, and the police have dispatched officers and launched an investigation."
We respect and trust the public security authorities to handle this case in accordance with the law. As for mediation—”
He looked at Hu Biao, who shook his head.
Chen Mingyuan nodded and turned to Xiao Zhou: "Officer, my client has clearly stated that he will not accept mediation."
We demand that a case be opened and investigated in accordance with the law, and that those responsible be held legally accountable. At the same time, we reserve the right to pursue civil litigation, including but not limited to pursuing the tort liability of the Traditional Martial Arts Association and related individuals, and holding the Emperor Hotel accountable for its negligence in security management.
Luo Zhenkun's face darkened: "Hu Biao, is it really necessary to make such a big deal out of this? We can discuss the terms—"
"I don't like talking to amateur groups; it would lower my standards."
Hu Biao turned to Huang Yao with a cold smile. "Director Huang, I came to this exchange competition at the invitation of the organizers, which is your association. However, the Garrison Command is one of the supervising units. And this happened as soon as I arrived. Doesn't the Garrison Command, as the supervising unit, have any oversight of the organizers?"
Huang Yao's face darkened, and he glared fiercely at Luo Zhenkun before saying, "The Garrison Command was unaware of this matter beforehand. We will investigate thoroughly, and if it involves any irregularities by the organizers, we will handle it according to the law."
Hu Biao nodded and didn't ask any further questions.
Luo Zhenkun seemed to have finally found an opportunity to speak, "This matter is indeed our problem, but—"
BLABLABLA—he said a lot, but as he was talking, he felt something was wrong. He saw that Hu Biao wasn't listening to him at all, but was sending messages on his phone.
"You—" Luo Zhenkun suppressed his anger, furious at Hu Biao's disrespectful behavior towards his senior.
A few seconds later, Hu Biao looked up from his phone. "Okay, that's it. I won't accept mediation. If you have any questions, talk to my lawyer."
With that, he walked straight out of the mediation room.
"Director Huang, look at this kid, he's too arrogant, too—"
"President Luo, let's check his Weibo account. He just posted a message," Huang Yao said, rubbing his temples.
"What?! Langwei?!"
Thinking about the current online public opinion, Luo Zhenkun gets a headache whenever Weibo is mentioned. However, he still took out his phone and opened Hu Biao's Weibo account.
#Eagle Claw King Hu Biao#
"Zhalun was injured and can't compete. The Traditional Martial Arts Association sent an old man to try and trick me into withdrawing from the competition. What kind of association is this? I seriously suspect they're a bunch of swindlers. I'm going to the association tomorrow to expose them and ruin their reputation." @Dongguo Traditional Martial Arts Association "He dares!!" Luo Zhenkun's expression changed drastically, and he roared angrily.
Hu Biao, who had just reached the first floor, heard his roar, turned around, and sneered at the upstairs, "Let's see if I dare!"
