This would an a greater loss for my side, while the responsibility of the other party would beco even greater.
Indeed, those involved in the criminal underworld in China have kept up with the tis in this regard.
If you’re not well-versed in the "Public Security Managent Punishnt Law" and "Criminal Law," you’d be embarrassed to call yourself a seasoned criminal.
At this point, Lin Haitang stood up, her expression already changing to work mode.
"Officer Wang, I am one of the parties involved.
The other group first tried to force us to drink, an action that constitutes harassnt of won in public and involves threats and intimidation.
Following that, they were the first to start a fight and injure my companion; when we made clear attempts to avoid the danger, they still relentlessly pursued us.
And they held tables, chairs, bottles, sticks, and other lethal weapons, posing a serious threat to our safety!
It was not until then that my companions had no choice but to fight back.
As for these two gentlen, they acted out of a sense of justice and intervened to help!
The right and wrong of the matter are crystal clear, with the other side suspected of group provocation and disturbing public order.
While our side was engaged in a completely legitimate self-defense!"
By this ti, she had fully understood everything.
About why ng Lang seed to have deliberately allowed himself to be hit just like that...
And why he kept pushing everyone back several ters, until there was nowhere left to retreat...
He was deliberately creating the appearance of "being beaten" and "fleeing," essential conditions for legitimate "self-defense" by the group!
Legally, one party starting the confrontation does not automatically lead to the recognition of legitimate self-defense for the other side.
Because there’s also the thod of "escaping" to avoid danger, and if this isn’t utilized and the party instead fights back, they might be deed engaged in "mutual combat"!
Therefore, when facing personal assault, it’s best to "run" first, like retreating to the foot of the tower, showing that you don’t want to engage and are trying to avoid conflict.
If the other party still relentlessly tries to advance, at that point you can really hit back!
You see, it’s not that I want to fight.
It’s that others have pushed too far!
At that mont, if you turn around and counterattack, you bear no criminal responsibility—that’s the correct way to exercise "legitimate self-defense"!
Of course, there are still complicated judgnts involved, such as whether the self-defense was excessive.
But as long as there are no serious injuries or death, you’re fundantally on solid ground.
Under the current legal frawork, winning a fight does not necessarily an you’ve truly won.
To win, not to compensate, to bear no responsibility, and to make the other party shed so blood—that’s what true victory looks like!
Otherwise, it would just be a case of both sides suffering, and you might even end up spending a few days at the police station.
Knowing the trigger conditions for "legitimate self-defense" is not difficult, but what’s challenging is to grasp all this within such a short ti and accurately guide people to act in the most favorable way for your side.
This truly tests one’s ability to think on one’s feet.
Having realized all this, Lin Haitang couldn’t help but silently admire ng Lang’s ticulous thinking, his composure in an ergency, and how he had calculated the most advantageous course of action for his side in such a short ti!
Of course, she didn’t know that ng Lang’s reaction was not spur of the mont.
It was entirely preditated...
"Officer, don’t listen to their nonsense! Wuuwuu~ Look at my face; my nose bridge is almost broken. Isn’t it obvious who hit whom? We’re the victims here!"
The thug with the lip piercing cried with snot and tears streaming down his face.
It wasn’t clear if he was the first to "hit" ng Lang, but he seed to have been targeted by all his so-called allies.
At this mont, he looked like a pig’s head, bruised and swollen, with a bloody nose, almost unrecognizable even by his own mother, pitiful beyond words.
"Yeah, that’s right, my head is buzzing; I think I might have a concussion!"
"I feel like my coccyx is broken; I can’t get up!"
"My little brother got kicked, he might be disabled! I demand a dical examination!"
"Right! And look at , my front tooth got knocked out! It was just done last week, high-quality ceramics! It costs over ten thousand! I demand compensation!"
"..."
For a ti, the wails of the ruffians rose and fell in succession.
These days, the principle of "the more pitiful, the more right" sotis still has its market.
But they didn’t know that ng Lang had already dug a big hole for them...
"Enough! Stop all this noise!" Wang Zhao Ping glared at them, and with so effort, he managed to quiet the collectively complaining thugs.
He looked at both sides, feeling a headache coming on.
ng Lang’s group, excluding ng himself and Fan Shigang who had sustained minor injuries, the others appeared unscathed.
Turning to the other side, they were all bruised and swollen. Technically, it should have been the thugs surrounding and attacking ng Lang and his group, but the "casualty rate" of both sides seed almost inconceivable.
There’s an old saying: Birds of a feather flock together.
Brother ng’s friends, indeed, none of them are ordinary folks...
"Is the bar manager here?" Wang Zhao Ping looked around.
"Uh! This... Here." Manager Lu said with a woeful face, walking out from the crowd that was enjoying the spectacle.
Looking at the bar in disarray, with nearly half of the custors having fled, he felt like crying but had no tears.
Why do all these unlucky events have to happen to !
There goes my bonus for this month...
"You’re the manager? Then please cooperate with us and bring up the surveillance footage. We need to see the scene of the incident as it happened," Wang Zhao Ping said.
"This..." Manager Lu’s expression grew even more troubled.
He sneakily glanced at Hu Dazhi and found him staring back nacingly, quickly averting his own gaze and stuttering.
"That... I’m sorry, officer, our surveillance system was just under maintenance tonight and wasn’t turned on, you see..."
Hu Dazhi instantly revealed a satisfied look.
As soon as he heard the police had arrived outside, Hu Dazhi had reacted imdiately, instructing soone to threaten Manager Lu to delete tonight’s surveillance recordings.
Because if it ca down to a matter of one’s word against another’s without evidence, then tonight’s incident was very likely to be categorized as a mutual brawl!
Manager Lu knew that even if Hu Dazhi and his crew were taken in, they’d be released in just a few days.
If he didn’t do as they said and offended them today,
What awaited the bar afterward would be endless trouble.
It wouldn’t just be a matter of losing a bonus then; the boss would directly fire him!
Although he felt sowhat sorry for the band and their entourage,
In these tis, it’s better to protect oneself...
"Maintenance?" Wang Zhao Ping looked at Manager Lu and then at Hu Dazhi, and could see the trickery at play. His brow imdiately furrowed.
"Go check the surveillance room," he ordered one of the officers under him.
"Yes, sir!"
He looked back at the crowd.
"We now need a few eyewitnesses for a simple cooperative investigation. Who witnessed the incident happen just now?"
"I—" "Are you crazy?!"
A few youngsters were about to step forward when they were held back by their friends and silenced with a look.
The onlookers saw Hu Dazhi’s group scanning the surrounding people with malevolent glances, giving off a clear ssage that whoever dared to step forward would be dealt with harshly.
The crowd observing the scene, upon seeing this atmosphere, none of them wanted to invite trouble.
For a mont, shockingly, no one dared to co forward as a witness.
Wang Zhao Ping frowned, but then he heard a crisp voice arise from the crowd.
"!"
The crowd looked towards the source of the voice, and in the next mont, ng Lang was utterly stupefied.
"Xiao Lu, what are you doing?!"
Ou Lu broke free from a deeply concerned Lin Xiaoling and walked straight out.
"Officer, I am willing to testify!"
ng Lang felt his eyes bulging out.
What is happening?!
Wasn’t the agreent to have an awkward encounter in the hospital?
This is neither the right ti nor place!
Especially the way Ou Lu looked at him, clearly recognizing him, made his scalp tingle...
Wait, why isn’t this vital information in the book?
Could it be another instance of the "Chain of Sorrow" where "the latter are beleaguered by the forr’s actions"?
It shouldn’t be; from the description of the encounter at the hospital, it seed that seeing Ou Lu would also be a surprise for . It doesn’t seem like we had already t the day before...
It looks like I arrived too late in the last episode, and Ou Lu had already left the bar, so I didn’t run into her?
Fate, you sly old man, truly lacking in martial virtue, unable to confront head-on, you resort to such underhanded tricks!
This clearly ans to sever my "supply line" once again?
This unavoidable destiny...
