Trevor Davidson shrugged and said, “Wrong guess, none of them are fourteen yet.”
Ye Chen said coldly, “I want to see the case file to confirm their ages.”
Trevor Davidson asked warily, “What is your relationship to that victim?”
Ye Chen said indifferently, “He is family to me.”
Trevor Davidson smiled and said, “No no no, legally there is no such thing as family, only specific relations, what is he to you? Father, uncle, or grandfather?”
Before Ye Chen could answer, he smiled again and said, “Oh right, I forgot that person likely has no legal status, which means, whatever relation you have to him, I can hardly verify its truth, let alone disclose information about minors to you, so you must first find your so-called family member, then have him seek a lawyer to sue, if he initiates the lawsuit himself, we will provide the assailants’ guardians’ contact details to his lawyer as required by law.”
With that, he raised his eyebrows at Ye Chen with a smile and asked, “Is there anything else I can help with? If not, please leave, I have work to do.”
Ye Chen felt some irritation in his heart, he knew what Trevor Davidson said was likely true, but this man’s attitude clearly showed he was not standing with the victim at all.
He thought, since the police had no specific information on Tang Sihai anyway, there was no need to waste time here with them, better to get the information on those assailants first.
As for this Trevor Davidson’s talk of legal requirements, it had nothing to do with him, he had not come this time to follow their laws and regulations.
Thus, he smiled faintly, channelling a bit of spiritual energy into Trevor Davidson’s body, and commanded, “Print out the assailants’ information for me.”
Trevor Davidson’s mind was now completely obedient to Ye Chen’s words, he showed no hesitation, immediately operating on the computer, and soon the printer beside him began whirring.
Quickly, a sheet with a table was printed out.
Trevor Davidson handed the table to Ye Chen and said respectfully, “The information on all six is here.”
Ye Chen glanced at it and immediately frowned, asking, “All six here are over twelve, three are over fourteen, one of whom is already eighteen, why was there no arrest?”
Trevor Davidson said, “The victim is most likely an illegal immigrant, in such cases we generally do not pursue deeply, because the victim will not either, most likely it ends there, releasing these children back also lets us gain a favour from their parents.”
Ye Chen demanded coldly, “And if the victim were not an illegal immigrant?! How would you handle it?”
Trevor Davidson said, “If the victim is from a minority ethnic group, even if not illegal, it depends on whether he has citizenship, if he has citizenship, we would try to persuade a private settlement; if he has no citizenship, only a student or work visa, we usually subtly threaten him verbally, telling him this could be classified as mutual affray, and once defined as mutual affray, there is a risk of his visa being cancelled, most people just accept their bad luck.”
Ye Chen was now utterly furious, as the law enforcement here, they actually showed deliberate bias in the face of violent crime, no wonder these youngsters were so arrogant, with related violent crimes cropping up endlessly.
And those little brats in their teens, not even fully grown, daring to intentionally assault someone in broad daylight, if they were not taught a lesson, he could not swallow this anger.
Thus, he planted a psychological suggestion in Trevor Davidson, saying, “Remember, starting the day after tomorrow, you are the nemesis of evil that makes crime tremble in fear, in the face of any illegal or criminal act, you must act without fear, with full effort, impartially enforcing the law, otherwise no rest until death, understood?”
Trevor Davidson nodded vigorously at once, “I understand!”
Ye Chen took the list of information and turned to Chen Zeke and Hong Wu, saying, “Alright, nothing of value here, let’s go.”
On the way out, Hong Wu asked puzzledly, “Master Ye, why did you tell that Trevor Davidson to become that nemesis of evil only starting the day after tomorrow?”
Ye Chen said indifferently, “Because for these two days, the nemesis of evil is me!”
With that, he pulled out the list and said coldly, “The next two days will be a nightmare these little bastards will never forget in their lives.”
