Chapter 260 Tough Guy(1/2)
【Ability-Super Listening (Bronze)】
[Ability description: At first, Superman could only hear the sounds near him. As the comic plot developed, he could hear the sounds of anything and anywhere in the city.]
Club 2, 21, West 52nd Street, New York.
"What's wrong, Mr. Colin Luper?"
George Z. Medali noticed the pause of Colin's knife opposite, and then asked.
"fine."
Shaking his head and retracting his gaze in the text, Colin cut a piece of steak and sent it into his mouth to do nothing.
With the serialization of the new episode of "Superman", [Super Listening] has also successfully completed the upgrade.
As one of Colin's earliest unlockable abilities, its improvement is not surprising.
After all, many abilities that unlock later than [Super Listening] have also been upgraded to the [Bronze] level early. The reason why this ability upgrade was completed so late is purely because of his own neglect.
Of course, no matter what, it is always a good thing to improve your abilities.
In Club 21, Colin tasted the fresh and delicious steak on the plate while using the ability of [super listening] to accept nearby sounds.
“…I know there is a good place that won’t bother us.”
"A serving of Paris lobster, smoked salmon, cheese board macaroni and finally a fruit salad."
"A few minutes left, the guests in the lobby are already asking about the time!"
"Give me another minute, right away..."
"I want a glass of whiskey...what are you, ma'am?"
"May I have your name?"
"Ernest Miller Hemingway...I'm preparing to go to Africa, maybe this is the last time we've met in the club..."
With the cooperation of [Super Brain (Bronze)], Colin doesn't need to worry about the upgraded [Super Listening] that will cause too serious side effects to him.
The suppression of the world also limits his ability to an extremely narrow range.
Even so, compared to his ability at the initial level of [Black Iron], what Colin can hear now is undoubtedly much wider than that at that time. He can not only hear conversations in the secret wine cellar in the basement of the club.
, and even able to extend the listening range to a wider area, such as outside the streets of Club 21.
“… Judging from the current evidence, the possibility of the American Radio Corporation winning this patent lawsuit is very slim, especially with Ferro Farnsworth’s complete patent certificate in his hand, which is enough to prove the uniqueness of the patent,
The US Patent Office cannot overturn this result because it means their negligence…”
In the restaurant, Colin removed the noisy sound in his ears and returned to the issue of law.
George Z. Medali is the lawyer recommended by Roosevelt. He is a long-established lawyer in New York. Although he is a Republican, he belongs to the progressive. He served as the federal prosecutor of the Southern District of New York City for a period of time.
Established a connection with Roosevelt.
In this presidential election, he is also one of the few lawyers in the Republican Party to express support for Roosevelt.
Although the TV patent case between American Radio and Colin was fierce in the media, George Z. Medali, who is a discerning person, saw the key to the case at a glance, with his attitude towards the New York judicial system.
The insights of such cases are not at all challenging.
If it weren't for Roosevelt's relationship, George Z. Medali wouldn't even accept the case.
After all, for a long-standing lawyer like him, a case that is too simple can no longer have a substantial impact on his reputation. In addition, George Z. Medali will have more
All focus is on investigating New York City's corruption issues.
Thinking of this, George Z. Medali couldn't help but look up at Colin in front of him.
If he remembers correctly, the person who exposed the truth about corruption in New York City prompted the mayor to step down is the one in front of him.
Although he did not attach much importance to the patent litigation case, due to his professional qualities of a lawyer, George Z. Medali conducted a detailed investigation of the entire case and concluded that this was a simple legal litigation
case.
"Even so, we have to consider the attitude of American Radio in this regard..."
As the largest radio company in the United States today, George Z. Medali does not think that the other party does not have a professional lawyer team know this. Since this is the case, it is still so popular that the radio company obviously guarantees other ulterior motives.
"We also need to be careful of other methods of radio companies. They may not give up easily. Even if the court makes a judgment, they will file a lawsuit against it, and even use other tricks, such as various strange small lawsuits to restrain them.
Living Mr. Colin Luper your actions.”
This is not a surprising approach. In fact, even George Z. Medali used this method to restrain his opponents.
However, American Radio is targeting Colin, while he is targeting other groups, such as criminal organizations in New York City.
Colin was not surprised by this, after all, this was the patent lawsuit against Ferro Farnsworth by the American Radio Company.
“So can we also file a lawsuit against patent infringement by American radio companies?”
But Collin is not Ferro Farnsworth after all, and he is much thicker in terms of trump card than Ferro who is isolated and helpless.
Therefore, he not only wants to win this patent lawsuit, but also intends to fight back.
After all, it is not Collin's habit to stand still and get beaten. Since the American Radio Company wants to use these small means to drag him out, he naturally won't hold back.
"It's OK in theory, but in this regard the time and legal fees."
Upon hearing this, George Z. Medali hesitated for a moment, but nodded and replied.
“Time is not a problem, and money is not a problem.”
Picking up the fork and inserting the last steak on the plate, Colin said with a smile at George Z. Medali.
Since American radio companies like to fight legal battles so much, just fight. They have time to spend with the other party.
What's more, as the owner of the Courier Newspaper, he can publish these lawsuits as special reports on the Courier Daily, which can not only expand the influence of the newspaper, but also promote the TV.
After hearing Colin say this, George Z. Medali naturally had no reason to object.
George Z. Medali took over the patent lawsuit between Colin and the American Radio Company, but this does not mean that he is responsible for the case. In fact, Medali, the lawyer for this case, has a suitable candidate.
His current chief assistant is just in need of a case that is not difficult but highly concerned to gain fame.
"Mr. Colin Luper, I have sorted out the specific content of the lawsuit, but I have some more important cases to deal with, and I cannot devote myself to the patent litigation issue, so the subsequent case
I will leave it to my chief assistant to take charge of the end of the day. He has been working under my command for two years and is also a professional lawyer."
"At the same time, I also promise that although I cannot devote myself to the patent case of Yi and the American Radio Company, I will do my best to help you continue to sort out the case, so I don't know if you, Mr. Colin Luper
…”
Speaking of this, George Z. Medali looked at Colin in front of him and said in a tactful tone.
"Chief Assistant?"
Hearing the reply given by George Z. Medali, Colin raised his eyebrows and was about to ask something, but suddenly unlocked the upgraded [Super Listening] and received the noise from outside the 21 Club.
He stopped the question he spoke, turned his head to look at the club's door, and George Z. Medali looked at him curiously when he saw his actions.
Alas!
More than ten seconds later, with a roar, the door of the first floor of the club's restaurant was pushed open, and then a group of organization members in suits rushed in.
"Where is he!"
The sudden noise made the guests who were dining in the club a little panicked.
George Z. Medali turned his head and looked at Colin in front of him. If he had read it correctly, the other party seemed to have known that someone would come over a dozen seconds ago, so how did he do it.
Although he was a little surprised, George Z. Medali was still attracted by these uninvited gang members, and the expression on his face also showed obvious disgust.
For these guys who disrupt New York City's public order, Meidali, who was once a federal prosecutor in the South District of New York City, naturally would not have any favorable impressions. In fact, the corruption in New York City also played a key role in it.
"Sir, what do you need?"
Looking at these aggressive guys, the waiter of the 21 Club immediately stepped forward to ask.
The wine cellar was able to open in New York City during the Prohibition period. The 21 Club naturally has its important background. In fact, Jack Kleinderler and Charlie Burns, who are bosses, are closely related to the gang, otherwise they would have been
Because it is impossible to get so much private wine.
“This is Mr. Charlie Burns’ club.”
His eyes swept over the crowd in the club department and the waiter whispered to remind him.
Hearing the name of Charlie Burns in the waiter, the gang members were slightly imposing, and their eyes swept over the people in the restaurant floor, and looked at their faces at Colin and George Z. Medali.
After stopping for a while, the leading gang members immediately spoke out their purpose.
"I'm going to your wine cellar to find a guy who doesn't have eyes!"
He waved his hand to the waiter in the kitchen and gestured. Faced with the request of the gang organization, the waiter said with confusion on the surface.
"Wine Cellar, I don't know what you are talking about. Club 21 is a regular restaurant and has no illegal actions."
"Don't put garlic on me here!"
Hearing the waiter's answer, the leading organization member subconsciously frowned, swept past the people in the surrounding restaurant, and then lowered his voice and said.
"Our boss has been here and has also been drinking below..."
Although the other party lowered his voice, it was obvious that he could not escape Colin, who had [super hearing] on the other side.
