Chapter 94: Yingluck Case (Part 1)
Karin knew that Liang Xi had flat feet and was not suitable for running and other foot-intensive sports. Karin suggested running in the park to see Liang Xi's perseverance. Liang Xi asked Karin to teach him how to swim, and Karin gave him a running question to test his sincerity.
As a detective, Liang Xi did not understand what Karin meant by this. His logic led him to believe that Karin was tactfully rejecting his intention to take the relationship to the next level. Taking the next level does not mean a relationship between a man and a woman. Given the current acquaintances between Karin and Liang Xi, the next level is a friendship where they can get to know each other better.
Liang Xi was disappointed with Karin's answer, but the impact of being rejected was far less than the blow of Fiona wearing a wedding ring. Or it can be said that men are animals that think with their lower body. And when a woman chases a man, there is only a piece of clothing between them. Liang Xi's emotional intelligence is not low, but he lacks practical experience, which led to him not understanding Karin's words and almost missing a great opportunity to get close to Karin.
Assuming Liang Xi gets close to Karin and successfully gets along with her, how should he face Fiona? We'll talk about it after it happens. The detective's talent is used for reasoning, not gambling.
Xiao Liang Xi once worried about whether to study at Oxford or Cambridge in the future.

There is the latest news about Yingluck's case. Yingluck's lawyer is a lawyer of the police union and is very famous in the industry. 24 hours after Yingluck was arrested, Yingluck's lawyer held a press conference to explain that her client Yingluck was persecuted by bureaucrats. The cause was that two months ago, Yingluck, as a patrol officer, arrested Robben's daughter-in-law . After the incident was exposed, Robben failed in his mayoral campaign. On the day of the failure, Robben's daughter-in-law declared on Facebook that she would kill the little bitch in the police station. Although it was deleted in seconds, it was still screenshotted by someone with ulterior motives.
As a prominent figure in the D faction and a shareholder of the Henke consortium, Robben is still very influential in London, and half of the city council are his acquaintances and friends. This time, the newly established anti-terrorism department Blade was used to frame Yingluck. Yingluck's lawyer produced a lot of evidence, including photos of Fiona stalking Yingluck, which were of course mosaiced. Yingluck's lawyer said that he had confirmed the identity of the case detective with Blade.
In return, a Blade detective was arrested by the Anti-powder Squad. When the Anti-powder Squad contacted the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the top brass actually directly ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs not to accept the case. In addition, the Chief of Police directly contacted the captain of the Anti-powder Squad and asked them to release the person on the spot.
At the press conference of the National Police Agency, the assistant director explained the whole thing. He said that at the time, a detective from Blade was undercover and was mistaken by the Anti-powder Squad as a suspect, which led to a misunderstanding. The chief of the Anti-powder Squad who also attended the press conference confirmed this. A reporter asked, before the press conference, why did the National Police Agency issue a gag order to the Anti-powder Squad? Did it happen? The assistant director said that the undercover identity is sensitive and the purpose is to protect the undercover.
A prosecutor's spokesman testified that no Internal Affairs agents were dispatched that night, but he did not know why they were not dispatched.
There was a loophole here. Liu Zhen contacted the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but the Ministry of Internal Affairs did not send anyone.
Because of this, Yingluck's case has received widespread attention. In response to the public's right to know, Yingluck's first public trial was held on the seventh day of her arrest. The police found cash from multiple countries in Yingluck's police dormitory. Three fake passports and two pistols with their serial numbers worn off became the main evidence. Yingluck's lawyer invited a witness to appear in court. The witness was a technician from a cockroach extermination company.
The technicians told them that they had disinfected Yingluck's dormitory the afternoon before the incident. Yingluck's lawyer told the jury that there was no pesticide in the evidence found by the police. The gun and other items were put into Yingluck's dormitory only after the disinfection work was completed. Yingluck had been at Fiona's house after getting off work at 6pm that day.
The surveillance camera at Fiona's door showed that Fiona drove away from her home at 10:27 p.m. Yingluck's patrolman friend picked up Yingluck at Fiona's home at 10:50 p.m. They went to Yingluck's patrolman friend's bachelor party together. It was not until five in the morning that Yingluck's friend sent Yingluck back to the police dormitory. The search warrant was delivered to Yingluck's residence in the police dormitory at five-thirty.
No matter who put the pistol and other things in Yingluck's dormitory, it was definitely not Yingluck.
The prosecution suggested that it was Yingluck's accomplices who released the bomb.
Yingluck's lawyer retorted that several passports were well-made and could not be produced in a short period of time. Assuming Yingluck had a gang, could it be that the gang had started to frame their accomplices a few days ago? Secondly, what evidence did the police have to suspect Yingluck and investigate her? If the police did not have factual evidence, why did Yingluck's accomplices frame Yingluck?
Yingluck's lawyer finally pulled out a bombshell. He produced a piece of evidence, which was the bank's serial number. Yingluck's police friend secretly investigated and found that the 2,000 pounds in cash found in Yingluck's dormitory was part of the 5,000 pounds in cash withdrawn by Robben's daughter-in-law from a bank. The so-called serial number refers to the number on the banknote that can be used to query the relevant bank counters, ATM machines and bank cards. If you withdraw counterfeit money from a bank, you can use the counterfeit money number to check which counter and which employee gave you the counterfeit money.
Yingluck's lawyer spoke passionately in court. He believed that this was a false accusation, a false accusation of a small police officer by bureaucratic power. He demanded that Yingluck be released in court and that the mastermind behind the incident be investigated.
…
Karin visited Mary today and said she was sorry that she didn't see Mary last time and contacted Liang Xi the day before. For Liang Xi, Karin would definitely visit him for no reason. As expected, while enjoying the lava cake baked by Mary, Karin mentioned Yingluck's case.
Karin explained that after Yingluck was released in court, the prime minister publicly called the London mayor's office and asked it to thoroughly investigate Yingluck's case. Many senior officials of the police department are facing exile and early retirement, including the chief of the police department, who may end his term early. One of the senior officials is Karin's elder, and he talked to Karin about this matter when he was hospitalized a few days ago. Karin hopes to help her elder, so Karin found Liang Xi, and she expects Liang Xi to analyze the case of Yingluck for her.
This matter is more serious than Karin said. Not only is there turmoil in the top management of the police department, but even the prosecutors are affected. The stock of Henk Group held by Robben plummeted, and Robben himself was expelled from the D faction. Is it public opinion? Public opinion is only part of it. What is more important is that political opponents took advantage of the situation and added insult to injury. Henk Group is a German-British joint venture industry, mainly engaged in oil exploration and refining, and has a certain share of exploration in the Middle East. It is said that they snatched a few big pieces of meat from their peers through bribery and other means, which once made their peers very dissatisfied.
The relationship between Liang Xi and Karin is still between acquaintances and friends. Karin did not deliberately hide her identity, and Liang Xi did not say that he suspected Karin of having an identity. Karin has recognized Liang Xi's unique ability, and she knows that Liang Xi has doubts about her identity. However, the relationship between the two is not yet close enough to discuss this level.
