Hong Kong Film: Jimmy? Please call me Councillor Li

Chapter 197 Releasing the Person, Leaving the Police Station
"Superintendent Ma is truly flexible and adaptable."

"However, I still don't want to go out, so please don't try to persuade me."

He was so flustered that he didn't know what to do. Now he truly understood the saying, "It's easy to invite a god, but hard to send him away."

Lin Zhuoxi was about to explode, but he only dared to vent his temper on his subordinates. At this critical moment, he dared not offend Li Jiayuan, this powerful figure.

"Mr. Li, it was our oversight that caused you to waste a whole day. What would it take for you to leave?"

This was probably the most humiliating moment in Lin Zhuoxi's life. He had arrested people many times, but this was the first time he had begged someone to leave, and to do so in such a humiliating way.

Li Jiayuan revealed a squinting smile. Those who knew him well knew that when he made this expression, it meant he was about to do something naughty.

"It's not impossible for me to leave, but call the guy who threw my lunchbox away and didn't give me food the other day over here."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Zhuoxi and the others looked even uglier. They immediately looked at Ma Shangfeng. If it weren't for the fact that so many people were watching, he would have liked to strangle Ma Shangfeng himself.

The little tricks they usually use are fine for dealing with ordinary people, but is Li Jiayuan an ordinary person? He's a councilor, a rising star in business, someone who moves in high society, and has such a high profile.

To be treated like this at his police station—what will happen to their reputation once he leaves and someone publishes this in any newspaper?

These good-for-nothings can't do anything right, all they do is cause trouble.

It's no wonder they have this attitude.

Lin Zhuoxi could even imagine how ugly the faces of the people below would be when they threw away their lunchboxes.

"Where is he? Find him immediately."

Immediately, Feng reluctantly went out, and a minute later, he returned with a young man, who was none other than Zhao Jiahao.

At this moment, the arrogance of yesterday was gone from his face, replaced by panic.

The CCB department is only so big, and everyone knows who has a grudge against whom. Everyone knows that Zhao Jiahao has repeatedly caused trouble for Li Jiayuan, so in order not to be implicated, they have no choice but to put aside their own family for the greater good.

Zhao Jiahao approached Li Jiayuan, trembling. He had been feeling scared since the beginning when those people were making a scene downstairs. He hadn't expected that Li Jiayuan, this councilor, would have such a great influence.

He regretted provoking Li Jiayuan when he realized that the crowd had besieged the police station, but there was nothing he could do. He could only pray that Li Jiayuan would just ignore him.

As expected, it did come.

In just one day, their positions were reversed. Yesterday, Zhao Jiahao was full of vigor and arrogance, while Li Jiayuan was a frustrated prisoner.

Li Jiayuan is now completely confident and at ease, while Zhao Jiahao is trembling with fear.

"We meet again, Officer Zhao."

Faced with Li Jiayuan's sarcastic remarks, Zhao Jiahao didn't reply. He lowered his head, his sharply defined face flushed red like an apple, and he felt incredibly humiliated.

"You're the one who threw away Mr. Li's lunchbox and didn't give him any food!"

Lin Zhuoxi's angry voice rang out in the narrow space. Immediately, Feng retaliated by kicking Zhao Jiahao. The stern gesture was actually to protect Zhao Jiahao and to quell Li Jiayuan's anger.

However, such a small trick could not possibly fool the experienced Li Jiayuan.

"Officer Lin, how do you handle cases of malicious abuse?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Jiahao's face turned pale. Ma Shangfeng was shocked and felt helpless at the same time. He wanted to help his subordinate, but he himself was in a precarious situation.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Zhuoxi answered.

"Report to the complaints department."

"Okay, then report it to the complaints department. Call them now."

Lin Zhuoxi took out his phone. Although he really didn't want to make the call, he knew that if he didn't call today, Li Jiayuan would definitely not let it go so easily, since they had no standing.

And we still need to ask for favors from others.

Lin Zhuoxi personally called the complaints department to file a complaint. With a complaint from the highest-ranking leader in the region, Zhao Jiahao's career as a junior police officer was essentially over. He would probably never be able to get a promotion in his lifetime.

That's how it is in the Hong Kong Island police system; once an officer's foundation is tarnished, getting promoted becomes an incredibly difficult challenge.

"Mr. Li, are you satisfied?"

After making the complaint, Lin Zhuoxi asked again, "His behavior reminds Li Jiayuan of a madam. To be honest, his service attitude is quite similar."

Having avenged his great grudge, Li Jiayuan had no intention of wasting time with them anymore. There was still so much work to be done at the company, and he didn't have the time to waste with these people. His time was just as precious as that of these high-ranking officials.

"Open the door."

Lin Zhuoxi opened the door for Li Jiayuan himself.

Li Jiayuan straightened his clothes slightly as he passed by Ma Feng.

"Oh, by the way, Officer Ma, remember to tell your good friend, Chief Chen Zhili, how I walked out of your police station."

Ma Shangfeng's expression grew even uglier, and Lin Zhuoxi's eyes became even more hostile. In his view, all of this was caused by Ma Shangfeng.

If it weren't for him, those public riots wouldn't have happened, and his promotion wouldn't have been affected.

He held this grudge in his heart.

Surrounded by a group of leaders, Li Jiayuan strode out of the detention cell, took the elevator downstairs, and walked steadily out of the police station, the long-awaited sunshine shining on his face.

In an instant, the Yau Ma Tei residents, who had been shouting loudly, fell into a miraculous silence.

Li Jiayuan stood up straight, facing the direction of the neighbors.

Take a deep breath and bow at a 90-degree angle.

"thank you all."

The deafening cheers echoed through the surrounding streets, and several media outlets that had been lying in wait seized the opportunity to capture this historic moment with their cameras.

The Wan Chai Police Station leadership, including Lam Cheuk-hei, who were inside the station observing all of this, felt extremely conflicted.

They have remained steadfast in their posts for many years, and never before have the people shown them such respect.

Lin Zhuoxi gave Li Jiayuan an unprecedentedly high score in his mind. If this child does not die young, he will definitely become a very important figure in Hong Kong in the future.

On the night Li Jiayuan returned, TVB and ATV news reported the news.

Because of the protests, Lee Ka-yuen's name had already entered the hearts of Hong Kong Island residents. Seeing the news again, the residents of Hong Kong Island were numb.

Besides being shocked, I also felt a little incredulous.

The residents of Yau Ma Tei surrounded the Wan Chai Police Station because of Lee Ka-yuen!

Is this definitely not a fake report? There have been many news reports of riots in the history of Hong Kong Island, but this should be the first time that someone has actively besieged a police station, especially for one person.

To be honest, if this kind of news had happened in the past, it would have been absolutely dismissed as fake news.

But those photos, page after page, couldn't possibly be fake, could they? Almost every newspaper in Hong Kong reported this news.

The scene where Li Jiayuan walked out of the police station and the residents of Yau Ma Tei cheered has become a classic.

The protests weren't over yet, and Li Jiayuan's name appeared in the news again.

This time, however, all those who said he was hyping things up or trying to gain fame have disappeared. A district councilor who is so beloved by the local people must be deeply popular.

Such people are worthy of respect in any era.

The day after Li Jiayuan left, the welfare department staff saw the news and were filled with panic and chaos.
