Chapter 524 Self-defense
Huang Ren had long been discouraged. When he knew that Yang Qingshan and Wusong were Lin Tian's bodyguards, he knew that today's "peace talks" would definitely end in failure.
"Lin Tian, why don't we talk again? Don't be impulsive." Huang Ren panicked when he heard Lin Tian say he was going to come to reporters. His superior told him that he must suppress the matter and cannot make a statement, otherwise the credibility of the entire Xiangcheng government would be questioned.
"Don't you just want money? On behalf of the Xiangcheng police, I promised you five million, a penny is not enough, is that okay?" Huang Ren said heartbroken.
This is not a small amount, he will definitely face a lot of pressure when he goes back.
But it is better to take the minority of the two evils, and it is better to lose some blood than to lose the police's face. If this matter is really made public, the consequences will be really unimaginable, and his official position will probably not be guaranteed by then.
"Deputy Director!" The two subordinates didn't expect that he really agreed and exclaimed in surprise.
Why do you have to pay? Why are their police stations so cowardly? Lin Tian is essentially a blackmail!
Lin Tian smiled with satisfaction and sat on the sofa and said, "Actually, I know what you think. You only have one purpose, to resolve this matter, not to make a big deal, be shameless! I understand very well. Especially the media and public opinion in Xiangcheng is very strong, so you must cover this matter well and not let them know.
It’s okay to apologize publicly. As long as the money is given, everything is easy to say. Well, don’t look at me like that. All I said is true. If you are willing to give money, I will sign a letter of understanding immediately and promise not to pursue this matter."
"If you think it's not worth it, I'll ask my lawyer to notify the media and hold a press conference. They will definitely be interested in the police scandal."
Huang Ren and his subordinates clenched their fists tightly and resisted the urge to punch Lin Tian. The young man really understood their thoughts. Zhou Nan, the lawyer next to him, was also in a dilemma. This case was too difficult. Lin Tian understood human nature, was bold and meticulous. As a lawyer, he did not have a trump card that was beneficial to his side, and it was difficult to exert his strength!
It can only be said that the Xiangcheng police suffered their own actions, and the atmosphere was not good on weekdays. This time, the accident hit Lin Tian and suffered a great loss.
Fortunately, Zheng Chenggong didn't really do anything to Lin Tian and Chu Xiaoxiao, but just verbal threats. If they were injured, this matter would definitely not be reconciled. With Lin Tian's personality, he would definitely take revenge.
Lin Tian is innocent and has no mistake at all. From the beginning, he was not the one who took action first. He was the other party who wanted to bully him. He had to defend himself. There were surveillance or personal witnesses in the places where he took action, so he could not cheat.
Zhou Nan thought for a long time but couldn't find any mistake. The only thing this young man could say was probably - being unkind, being petty, and being vengeful, but this is not a legal issue, but a moral issue.
Everyone in the living room looked at Lin Tian and looked at each other. They were forced to have no choice by a 20-year-old young man.
Huang Ren's face was blue and white. If it weren't for the wrong time and occasion, the truth would have broken down this abominable bastard and allowed him to completely disappear from this world.
Staring at Lin Tian fiercely, Huang Ren asked in a low voice: "Lin Tian, have you thought about it? I'm sure you want to be so decisive?"
Lin Tian said indifferently: "This is my attitude. My attitude will not change. You can make a decision quickly! Should you ask for money or face? I advise you to reflect on it carefully, and don't just think about suppressing it without solving the fundamental problem, otherwise similar things will happen in the future.
If things accumulate to a certain level, it will not be solved by much money. You are not idiots, you should understand what I mean."
Everyone straightened their backs after hearing this, and had to admit that Lin Tian said he was on the point.
"I didn't expect that the police station in Xiangcheng was like this, which disappointed me. You are famous for your just law and protecting human rights, which seems to be unworthy of your reputation!"
Lin Tian sighed while saying, as if he was really heartbroken.
Huang Ren took a deep breath and said to Lin Tian: "Even if we are wrong, we have to take responsibility, is the amount of compensation you proposed too much?" Then he turned his head and asked Yang Qingshan and Wusong: "Two, what do you think?"
Yang Qingshan spread his hands and felt that it was inexplicable. Is this matter related to him? However, the person in front of him had some identity, so he could not ignore him and said, "You discuss this with Lin Tian. I don't make any decision. I am just his bodyguard."
"Yes, so do I." Wusong echoed.
Lin Tian smiled and said, "If you don't want to, then don't give it to me. I didn't force you to give it to me. Let's prepare to attend the press conference!"
Huang Ren thought for a while, took out his cell phone and said, "The amount is too big. I want to ask my superiors for their opinions. You can wait a while."
"Okay." Lin Tian poured himself some red wine and sipped it in small sips. Occasionally, he clinked glasses with Chu Xiaoxiao's pure milk. The two of them leisurely seemed to be drinking afternoon tea. The others were speechless. Their psychological qualities were amazing!
Huang Ren went to the door to make a phone call. A few minutes later, he came over and said to Lin Tian: "Is four million possible? Five million is too much. We will apologize. The apology letter will be published in the media. However, you must keep the specific incident confidential, please consider it!"
Lin Tian thought about it, put down the wine glass, took a small square towel and wiped the milk stains on the corner of Chu Xiaoxiao's mouth, and said slowly: "Okay, let's settle it like this. My lawyer will arrive soon, you can wait."
Huang Ren finally put down a big rock in his heart. He contacted several leaders and carefully analyzed the pros and cons before he made a decision.
The risk of this matter being made public is too great, and they cannot bet. If it can be solved by millions, they can grit their teeth and squeeze out some money. Otherwise, the consequences will be even more serious and no matter how much money you have, it will not be solved.
This time they learned their lessons. After Lin Tian was comforted, they would immediately rectify the police force and try not to make the same mistakes again.
Lin Tian called, and the lawyer Cao's family helped hired arrived at the door of the room a few minutes later. After entering, he knew that Lin Tian had already negotiated with the police, and he felt relaxed.
Because of the fact that lawsuits with the public are quite rejected in the hearts of Chinese people. We have always been a centralized system, and it is a big government. People usually have no good end to fight against the government.
Write the documents on site, print them out, and both parties put their handprints to sign, and the matter will be resolved.
Lin Tian gave a card number, and a few minutes later, the compensation promised by the police arrived. Lin Tian took out one-fifth of the lawyer's fees.
The police settled with Lin Tian, but he was not going to let Brother Hu go, and this lawyer was still responsible for the lawsuit with Brother Hu.
There are also the details of paying taxes and other things. Lin Tian didn’t want to bother himself, so he would bother Huang Ren. They all bargained, so they would have to help with small matters.
