Chapter 224 Hope and Disappointment
This is the first time Li Menglong has entered a police station since he can remember. The more the mystery came to be revealed, the calmer Li Menglong became.
So he looked around with great interest. Generally speaking, it was not much different from ordinary companies. They were all busy with a group of people, except for the small temporary detention rooms in the back that were isolated by iron railings. place.
"What did these guys commit? It wasn't robbery, was it? This fat guy can't run away!" a police officer who seemed to be the boss asked casually.
Unlike a rookie like Li Menglong, the police station was Fatty's second home at least a few years ago. But later on, he restrained himself a lot for the sake of his sister. It would be difficult for Li Menglong to see him outside.
So he used his big, protective face and said with a silly smile: "Sir, you have good eyesight. In fact, we are also victims, and we are here to maintain justice!"
There happened to be nothing going on right now, so the police officer took them aside and listened to the fat man's nonsense. In fact, as long as they didn't commit any major crimes that made people and gods angry, the police's attitude was quite acceptable.
"So you were beating people just to protect Kim Taeyeon?" the police officer said incredulously.
"That's right, but officers, you must keep your mouth shut. It would be bad for Taeyeon if you tell me!"
"Don't worry, I'm also a fan of hers. If things are really like what you said and what you didn't say, I will try my best to speak to you!" This police officer really envied the fat man for doing such a happy thing for his idol. It is simply the wish of all fans. As for being in jail for a few days, it is simply a reward.
"Thank you first, police officer. I'll ask you for her autographed photo then!" The fat man lighted a cigarette for the police officer, then stuffed another one into Li Menglong's mouth, and finally took one himself.
Seeing the fat man's behavior, the police officer also knew that Li Menglong seemed to be the protagonist, but looking at his calm and calm look, with a humble smile on his lips, he believed that he was a university teacher.
In the end, he could only think that it was the other party's impulsiveness. He felt pity for a few people, so when he took them to a temporary detention place nearby, he also specially warned the other gangsters inside.
However, not long after the police left, several people around them gathered around them one after another, each with a bad smile and slapping each other from time to time. Li Menglong could probably guess what they meant.
But the fat man couldn't stand it anymore. When did he become a fat sheep? In prison, he, Fatty, also plays the role of prison bully! So everyone made a tacit understanding and started a small fire while the police officer was away.
When the police officer came back to bring them some blankets, they saw Li Menglong half leaning against the wall, boredly looking at the sky through the small window, while several gangsters opposite were standing upright against the wall. When he came over, he didn't even dare to say anything other than a look of horror.
I originally wanted to help Li Menglong, but it turned out that they handled it very well: "As long as you can handle it well, otherwise I would like to change you to a single room at night. Have a good rest, I will pay attention to the news, and Is there anything I can do to help? I’m afraid I can’t send messages or anything like that!”
Li Menglong looked at the fat man and the follower. To be honest, they didn't know what they wanted. They had never been asked this question after entering the police station so many times.
So Li Menglong thought for a while and said very politely: "If you are not annoyed, can you give me a book? Any book will do!"
"It's not impossible, it's just that there aren't many people reading here. Let me ask for you!" The police officer's impression of Li Menglong became better and better.
So when Li Menglong took advantage of the brighter light from the window and carefully read the book, he was in a completely different world from the snoring of the fat man and the whispers of the gang of gangsters around him.
After passing by several times, the police officer always felt that something was missing. It was not until he finally brought Li Menglong a cup of coffee, and accompanied by the faint aroma of steam and coffee, that the picture of Li Menglong reading was completely perfect.
When the police officer got off work, he specifically explained to other colleagues on duty that he heard that a scholar was wronged by his idol and beat up his agent. Li Menglong was considered a weak character, so everyone sympathized with him.
Especially when they saw Li Menglong holding a thick book of Korean law and reading it so seriously, several of them felt a little ashamed, so later that night Li Menglong got an unprecedented desk lamp.
Everyone must warn the other gangsters when they come over. After all, these gangs always like to bully newcomers.
But these gangsters are going crazy. Now it's like the underworld and the police are coming together to suppress them. Neither side can survive anymore. They have all the thoughts of being good.
Just when Li Menglong was about to spend a quiet night, s*m had completely exploded. In a small conference room, Jin Yingmin, who had just rushed back from a dinner smelling of alcohol, was frowning. .
Of the four people who were beaten, except for SJ's manager who was in a slightly better condition and was still here, the other three had been sent to the hospital and the scene of the car accident had been cleaned up.
There were only three of them in the conference room now, and he, Jin Yingmin, wanted to set the tone in private. The smaller the number of people, the easier it would be for them to tell the truth.
Facts have proved that SJ's agent did not dare to lie. Apart from using some techniques to shift the responsibility to Li Menglong, most of the details were still reliable.
And Kim Young-min naturally has the ability to distinguish right from wrong, especially when looking at Kim Taeyeon, who can be said to be her favorite work. Girls' Generation has something to do with him. They were one of the bargaining chips for Kim Young-min's rise to power. It was precisely because of the popularity of Girls that he was able to prove his abilities and speak to the board of directors.
In the past few years, the girl has been able to remain calm with almost no scandals or troubles about contract termination. It can be said that Kim Taeyeon has contributed a lot. Almost all the company's little thoughts and some dark sides have to be communicated with her.
When she talked with the company, she always had naked interests. For example, the TTS team this time was obtained by Kim Taeyeon for half a year and in exchange for her promise to cooperate with the promotion in Japan.
It can be said that Kim Taeyeon is the nanny of the girls. She does all the initial communication with the company, and then shows the girls some glorious results. This is also the reason why she has been recognized by Jung Soo-yeon, Lee Soon-kyu and others over the years. .
Kim Taeyeon really paid a lot for Girls' Generation.
So unless there are any accidents, Kim Young-min is willing to favor and love Kim Taeyeon, but this matter involves exo, which is the new boy group that he strongly supports, so it is difficult to say.
Kim Taeyeon didn't speak the whole time, just holding her shoulders and waiting for Kim Young-min, leaving the silent pressure on Kim Young-min.
He was constantly weighing the interests of all aspects in his own mind. From an outsider's perspective, what Li Menglong did was indeed excessive, but there was a reason for it, and it made sense.
But he is the president of s*m, and he has to be responsible for the people inside the company, no matter who is right or wrong. Three managers and an artist were beaten violently in his garage. If they just gently lifted it up, he might not be able to accept it. Crowd.
As for Kim Taeyeon, he could only look at her apologetically. Someone had to sacrifice. He hoped that she would put the company first in everything: "Ahem, this Li Menglong, we will sue to the end and notify the company's legal department to follow up. Well, if you need anything, you can contact me again! ”
"Nene! The president is wise. This kind of person should be put behind bars! My head still hurts now. I want to be hospitalized and pay for my lost work!" This agent flattered him but also added insult to injury. .
Kim Taeyeon was extremely disappointed. She had been in this company for many years, starting from the little country girl in Quanzhou. There may be various things happening within s*m, such as conflicts between trainees, bribery of internal staff, etc.
But she is still grateful here, because this is the place where her dreams take flight. And when they became popular, the conflicts with the company became more and more serious. From the beginning when they wanted to enter Europe and the United States, everyone almost fell out.
Why were they able to take over in 2009? Of course, gee's popularity is undeniable, but what year doesn't have some hit songs? Another big reason is that Wongder Girls, the number one girl group at the time, was brought to the United States by Park Jin Young to enter the North American music market.
As for the current result, that group is almost disbanded and will no longer have the glory of being the number one girl group. This is a lesson learned from the past, but Kim Taeyeon worked hard to communicate with both parties, and finally managed to comfort her sister.
There are really countless similar things, but she endured them all, not for anything else, just for the name Girls' Generation.
But today, she was completely disappointed and dissatisfied with this company from top to bottom. Let's not talk about who is being reasonable. She, Kim Taeyeon, asked the company to help her unreasonably. Is it so difficult?
When she was so angry, Kim Taeyeon laughed. It was not a forced smile, but a smile from the bottom of her heart. She was laughing at herself and at them.
Still didn't speak, because she knew it would have no effect, and since the other party had decided, he would not change it. Turning around and leaving the room, there wasn't much she could do, not even carrying it with Li Menglong, but she knew there would be a future.
The matter spread very quickly within S*M. An hour later, even Xu Xian got the news, and other girls who could spare time in Seoul also rushed over. Even those who didn't know Li Menglong also came over. I want to see if Kim Taeyeon is injured.
Because this was the last vacation before going to Japan, many of the girls were not in Seoul. Only Yoona and Hyoyeon rushed over. Although the few people gathered around had no good ideas, they were still able to stay by Kim Taeyeon's side.
Xu Xian hesitated for a while, and then dialed Li Shun Kyu's phone. She felt that this sister must want to know about this, but unfortunately the phone was turned off. After sending a text message, Xu Xian couldn't help but sigh. Take a breath.
After Li Menglong had a very unpleasant dinner, he leaned aside boredly and listened to everyone taking turns bragging. The entertainment activities here were really almost zero.
The bullshit of a bunch of gangsters is naturally the number of women they have slept with and the number of younger brothers they have. This is their dream life in the future.
As a result, Fatty, the former gangster boss, began to spread detailed knowledge about the gangster to them, such as the bright red color when a person bleeds and the distribution of internal organs; for example, when you sleep in the middle of the night one day, someone will rush over and chop you inexplicably.
In short, all the little brothers mentioned above have no love for this profession. After working for a long time, it turns out that it is not easy for the big brother to get involved.
Then it was Li Menglong's turn. He was not unsociable, but he always felt a little conciliatory when talking about underworld affairs at the police station. So Li Menglong used the knowledge he had just learned in the afternoon to start explaining the law to these people, starting with beating people. Speaking of compensation.
