How about it?
He Fei was quite impressed by this. He had the impression that Jamie was not arrested. Detective Jim, who lacked evidence in the movie, finally let Jamie leave the police station. Because of this, the college student did not hesitate after hearing what Jamie said. Nervous, I really thought Inspector Jim would let Jamie go as in the original plot, but then...
Unexpectedly, in the face of a direct showdown with Jamie, Inspector Jim's answer not only made the blond young man's instinct freeze, but even He Fei, who was observing silently next to him, was subconsciously shocked!
"Yes, Mr. Jamie, although we have not yet found conclusive evidence to prove your guilt and arrest you, I can still detain you for 24 hours according to the law, which means you must wait until this time tomorrow before you can leave."
He never expected that Inspector Jim here would be even more tempered than in the original movie, and would actually do such harming things to others. Hearing this, He Fei was surprised and became nervous. The reason is very simple. He saved Lisa not long ago. After the failure, He Fei has been upset and worried, and is afraid of Jamie's upcoming trip to Ravenel to find the truth. He Fei hopes that Detective Jim will detain Jamie and even wishes that he would be arrested and imprisoned. It's not that He Fei has any grudge against Jamie, but because this way Jamie will not be able to go to Ravenel. As long as he is caught and imprisoned, not only will Jamie's life be saved, but the executor will also be relieved of a heavy burden. After all, the female locust cannot attack Jamie who is outside the town. As long as Jamie does not die, the executor does not need to worry about the punishment of obliteration, but the problem is...
The question is, if the detention is only for one day, then it will not mean much. In my impression, the whole movie only lasts for 3 days, which means that all the plots during the period take place within 3 days. What does this mean? This means that being detained for one day cannot change the status quo. This will not stop Jamie. What should happen one day later will still happen. On the contrary, Inspector Jim’s move is very likely to disrupt the plot and disrupt the executor’s advance of the plot. Foreknowledge!
(Oops!)
………
Emotions need to be restrained, and words need to be noted when speaking. The more intense the emotions, the more intense the emotions. After all, there is a saying that makes people have to bow their heads under the roof. Even if you are excited and angry, you still have to recognize the current situation clearly. Be realistic or you will very likely pay the price.
Perhaps in retaliation for the blond young man's rude words, Inspector Jim decided to restrict Jamie's freedom.
Hearing that the other party refused to let him leave in the name of the law, Jamie was speechless. He Fei secretly thought that something was wrong. After thinking for a moment, he finally couldn't help but stand up from his seat, then walked to his boss and whispered to dissuade him: "Sir, Isn’t this bad? This may make this guy resist the police, and I’m worried that it will be detrimental to the subsequent investigation and evidence collection.”
In fact, Inspector Jim's detention just now was just an angry word, and the purpose was to punish Jamie. Of course he understood the truth of what He Fei said, but since the words raised in the question have been spoken, if he took them back immediately, how could he? Isn’t it very shameful? So, after a brief hesitation, Inspector Jim chose to refuse and planned to stick to his point of view.
"Agent He, you don't need to persuade him. It's better to detain him for 24 hours according to the rules and let him calm down. That's the only way..."
Boom, boom, boom.
Many times, the development of events is not controlled by human power. Just when Inspector Jim was about to make a decision, he was interrupted by a series of sudden knocks on the door before he could finish his words.
Everyone at the scene was stunned by this interruption. Whether it was Inspector Jim who was interrupted, He Fei, or Jamie across from him, the three of them all looked confused. Not to mention how the blond young man reacted, at least to Detective Jim, who is a police detective, and He Feilai, who is also a police detective, are both curious and surprised. First of all, they must understand that it is night, and who will come here to disturb them at this time? In addition, the bureau has assigned the case to the two of them, so it stands to reason that no one else in the bureau will interfere except them.
Answer? The answer was easy to come by. Hearing the repeated knocks and touching his chin, Inspector Jim looked at the door and said, "Please come in."
squeak.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a soft knock on the door, and a man in a suit and leather shoes with a document in his hand walked straight into the investigation room. Taking a closer look, he saw that this man was of medium height and had a gentle appearance. If his appearance alone could be considered... He is quite elegant, and the gold-rimmed glasses he wears on the bridge of his nose further enhance his masculine temperament to the level of gentleness. Putting aside Inspector Jim who saw this person for the first time, after He Fei saw the appearance of the person clearly, he instantly Suddenly, the young man's pupils shrank, and he was shocked!
that is because……
The person who came was none other than Zhao Ping!
Similarly, when He Fei discovered Zhao Ping, why didn't Zhao Ping discover He Fei? As he stepped into the room and saw the college students present, the man with glasses inadvertently changed his expression, showing surprise.
It was described like this, but what made He Fei even more unexpected was that the man with glasses had just entered the room. Before Detective Jim could speak, Jamie, who had been sitting opposite him without saying a word, stood up and greeted him. After that, he spoke in a familiar manner. He said hello while asking questions: "Huh? Zhao Ping, why are you here?"
He Fei was shocked again!
Through Jamie's reaction, combined with the other party's ability to call out Zhao Ping's name instantly, it can be easily seen that the protagonist of the plot knows the man with glasses. In this way...
(Jamie actually knows Zhao Ping? Is it difficult, is it impossible...)
Before He Fei could completely clear his mind, when he heard Jamie's question, the man with glasses showed no expression and said nothing. He just nodded slightly towards the blond young man, then immediately changed his vision and turned his gaze to the opposite side, looking at the man who was currently full of people. Detective Jim stared at him with a puzzled face. They looked at each other for a moment. The man with glasses took the lead and introduced himself: "This must be the famous Detective Jim in the police station. I, Zhao Ping, am a lawyer at William Law Firm. Hello, Mr. Jamie entrusted me."
………
The curse really did not lie!
As the controller, Curse has arranged different identities for all those involved in the execution of tasks. Although the identities are different, one thing is undeniable, that is, no matter who they are, their identities will always intersect with the male protagonist. There is no doubt that through Zhao Ping With the self-introduction just now, He Fei not only clarified the identity logic, but also additionally guessed that the identity assigned to Zhao Ping by the curse is not only a lawyer, but also very likely to be an acquaintance with the protagonist Jamie!
It is also worth mentioning that Zhao Ping's profession in reality is that of a lawyer. Unexpectedly, the curse actually arranged for him to be a lawyer, and now he can be regarded as returning to his old profession.
"This must be the famous Inspector Jim of the police station. I, Zhao Ping, am a lawyer at William Law Firm. I am here on behalf of Mr. Jamie. Hello."
After introducing himself, he took a few steps forward. The man with glasses politely extended his right hand to Inspector Jim. As for Inspector Jim...
The middle-aged man's face was gloomy and he couldn't help but sink.
In fact, from the moment the man with glasses revealed his identity, he had already sensed that something bad was going on with his many years of experience as a police officer. As the saying goes, the higher the position, the more you know. For a police officer of his level, if you want to ask What do you usually hate the most? The answer must be a lawyer. This is said to be true, but it is also true in reality. Some wealthy suspects in custody often hire lawyers to interfere and come to the police station to excuse their employers with various excuses until the suspect is successfully taken away from the predicament. , every time he thinks of this, Detective Jim always gets very angry and itches his teeth. It is conceivable that it is strange that middle-aged people are so fond of lawyers. At least in the eyes of himself and most police investigators, lawyers are just a group of people who only know how to deal with the law. Despicable guy.
Of course, you should continue to curse secretly, and criticize secretly, but you still have to have the social etiquette that you should have in reality. Seeing the other party extending his hand, Inspector Jim could only reluctantly raise his hand and shake it.
After shaking hands with Detective Jim, Zhao Ping continued to move and turned to He Fei. The two parties also shook hands politely. As the two parties came into contact and their eyes met, the two of them roughly understood each other's identity. However, when they came into contact, they The reason is very simple. The rules have already stated that during the mission, the executor is strictly prohibited from making actions that are inconsistent with his identity and violate logic. There is no doubt that He Fei and Zhao Ping know each other, but in the mission world, they are Judging from the identity of the two parties, they are actually strangers to each other. According to the plot, it is only the first time for the two to meet. If they say some inappropriate words and phrases during the communication, the consequences will inevitably violate the rules and be punished.
"Hello, my name is He Fei, a police detective and Detective Jim's assistant."
As Detective Jim expected, as the handshake between the two parties came to an end, the bespectacled man... no, it should be the Asian lawyer named Zhao Ping immediately became active and took the paper document that he had been holding in his hand. It was handed to Inspector Jim. When Inspector Jim lowered his head to look at it, the man with glasses also explained calmly: "This is a disease certificate issued by the city's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, which can prove that my client, Mr. Jamie, suffers from He has severe stomach problems, and he will rush to the hospital for regular treatment soon as ordered by the doctor. This means that my client, Mr. James, is currently not in good health and is not suitable for detention. Therefore, Mr. Inspector, please release me immediately. Client.”
Zhao Ping is obviously talking nonsense. At least He Fei knows that Jamie in the original movie is not sick at all and is completely healthy. Let alone He Fei. In fact, even Inspector Jim does not believe Fang Qi’s words and does not believe Zhao Ping’s words. Any word in, what? You said Jamie has a stomach problem? Even if he is not a doctor and does not understand medicine, would a person with stomach problems look so normal and healthy?
The logic is such a logic, the truth is such a truth, but it's a pity...
It's a pity that this hospital certificate is true!
Yes, the United States is a country that pays attention to law. In the United States, people pay attention to evidence and pay attention to legality. Even if some things are completely illogical, as long as there is tangible evidence to prove it, it will inevitably be judged to be true and supported by the law. In this regard , Detective Jim, who has been a police officer for many years, knows this well. Although Jamie himself does not have stomach problems, he never thought that the hospital would issue a real disease certificate for him. Obviously, the other party bribed the doctor and he Although you can ask for a re-examination at another hospital on the grounds of disbelief, the question is what if the answer given by another hospital is still stomach trouble? After all, there are only a few hospitals in the urban area and only a few attending doctors. He can't guarantee that if the other party can bribe one, he won't bribe the second or even the third. Once he does this, or he still insists on his own opinion, he will forcefully detain him. If so, there is a high probability that the lawyer in front of you will take you to court for violating human rights laws.
His face gradually darkened, and his dissatisfaction was palpable.
After handing the document back to Zhao Ping, Inspector Jim's face became increasingly ugly. The middle-aged man fell into silence and remained silent. Only the man with glasses continued to ask unhurriedly: "What? Why doesn't Mr. Inspector speak? Or? Are you saying you are skeptical about the hospital’s certificate?”
squeak.
Ta da da, da da da
A few seconds later, with the sound of the door opening and a series of footsteps walking, Inspector Jim pushed the door open and left the room with a look of displeasure on his face. Even though Inspector Jim didn't say a word from beginning to end, in fact, just from His leaving action is enough to prove that the result will reveal the answer.
Watching the other party drift away, Zhao Ping moved, instinctively raised his hand to adjust his gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, then turned around and looked at Jamie: "The matter has been resolved, let's go."
"Zhao Ping, you are truly my friend. You came just in time. If it weren't for you, I might have been locked up by that nasty mustache until tomorrow night. Huh? Wait, your hospital certificate. And how did you know about this?"
"It's a long story, and, by the way, I'm deeply saddened about Lisa."
"Damn it, from the conversation I just had with that mustache, I can see that these police officers don't believe me at all! Not only do they not believe me, but they actually suspect that I am the murderer. If this is the case, then I still need to rely on that person. Is the police investigation doomed to be fruitless? Just investigate the cause of Lisa’s death yourself!”
"Well, I'm about the same as you. I also think that the direction of the police investigation is very likely to deviate. As for your personal plan... let's not mention it for the time being. This is not the place for discussion. Jamie, let's leave the police station first and talk. Bar.
Regarding Jamie's inquiry and subsequent venting, Zhao Ping, who was assigned as the protagonist's friend by the curse, simply expressed a few words of relief, and then they both left the room under the leadership of the man with glasses. However, at the last moment when Zhao Ping was about to walk out of the room, he seemed to think of Saying something, the bespectacled man paused for a moment, turned around, and then looked deeply at He Fei, who was always standing in the room.
It was just an eye contact, just a look at each other. Although the two parties never talked to each other except for the introduction at the beginning, He Fei still roughly guessed the meaning from the look in the other person's eyes before leaving. What does it mean? He Fei personally understands it this way:
I will try my best to stop Jamie from going to Ravenel without breaking the rules, but I can only promise to do my best.
