The Confrontation at Universal Studios

In less than three minutes, Locke drove the police car to Universal Studios. "7ada15, arrived at the scene, de6..."

"py..."

Locke opened the camera on his chest, pushed the door open, and got out of the car. At first glance, he saw people in conflict at the entrance of the Harry Potter theme park. His expression froze for a moment – they were all Chinese.

David also got out of the car and muttered behind him in confusion, "How come it feels like your driving skills have improved again..."

Locke smirked. He might still be at level l3 in driving skill, but his experience had been hard-earned.

He stood in front of the four people in conflict, showed his credentials, and asked, "LAPD, who called the police?"

A middle-aged Chinese woman with dyed blonde hair and heavy makeup immediately said, "Officer, I called the police. I suspect these three people are illegal immigrants. They're speaking Chinese in the United States. They must have just smuggled in and want to stay here. We must be vigilant against Chinese people. There are more and more Chinese people in the United States now..."

What nonsense?

Locke listened bewilderedly, then turned to look at the three Chinese people next to him – a middle-aged couple and a young girl, all dressed decently, not like illegal immigrants.

At this moment, all three of them looked angry, especially the young girl.

Before Locke could speak, the young girl said angrily, "Officer, my name is Linda. I'm a Chinese international student at USC (University of Southern California). My parents are here in the US for vacation and to visit me. They don't speak much English, and they definitely won't overstay in the US. They already have return tickets. We're just enjoying our vacation, but this crazy woman, I don't know where she came from, keeps harassing us and won't let us leave..."

While the girl was speaking, the blonde-haired Chinese woman next to her continued to attack them incessantly.

Locke had to speak up, "Ma'am, please keep quiet. Your noise is hindering my work..."

David also took the woman who called the police aside to ask her some questions.

Locke said to the girl named Linda, "I understand the situation roughly. Please show me your documents, return tickets, hotel reservations, and any other information that can prove you won't try to stay illegally in the US."

Linda immediately showed Locke her parents' passports, travel plans, return tickets, hotel reservations, etc. "My parents are traveling in the US for 10 days this time. We're going to the East Coast the day after tomorrow..."

She turned to her parents and said in Chinese, "Dad, find the photo of your leave request form..."

The middle-aged man replied in Chinese, "Is this American cop colluding with that crazy woman? He doesn't understand Chinese, so what's the use of showing him? America is in such a mess now. Only fools would want to stay in America!"

The middle-aged woman also chimed in, "Even if you invite me, I won't come! People who used to be decent become like ghosts as soon as they come here..."

Locke almost couldn't help but laugh, but thankfully, he had sunglasses on. After all, he had undergone professional training and wouldn't laugh out loud no matter how funny it was.

Linda showed Locke her father's leave request form on WeChat. "This is my father's leave request. He only has half a month of vacation. Although it's in Chinese, look at the dates on it. Let me translate it for you..."

Locke interrupted her and said in Chinese, "Thank you, but it's not necessary. I can understand. I majored in Chinese language and culture at university..."

In the shocked expressions of Linda's family, Locke collected all the information and then went to discuss the results of their inquiries with David. The two quickly reached a consensus.

David directly said to the Chinese woman who called the police, "Ms. Tiffany, we will now arrest you on charges of illegal harassment, racial discrimination, two counts. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say may be used against you in court..."

Seeing Locke take out handcuffs to restrain her, the Chinese woman was at a loss and cursed loudly, "Fucking you, what's wrong with you, American cops? Chinese people are invading America, and you're turning a blind eye..."

With the comprehensive combat skills of level l3, the Chinese woman had no chance to struggle at all. She was controlled by Locke like a mother hen with its wings pinched, still cursing incessantly.

Locke handed the woman over to David and went to Linda's family to inform them of the charges against the Chinese woman. He left his business card and said, "You can still enjoy your vacation, but before you leave Los Angeles, you need to go to the Wilshire Police Station to make a detailed statement..."

Amidst the gratitude and shock of Linda's family, Locke waved and left.

He also heard the middle-aged man ask his daughter why American police didn't "play nice."

He didn't quite understand what that meant. They weren't construction workers after all.

Perhaps he could ask his old man when he got back.

After escorting the Chinese racist Tiffany back to the Wilshire Police Station, Locke and David continued their patrol in the car.

David drank his coffee and sighed, "This is really crazy. These immigrants love America more than us Americans..."

Tiffany's identity had been verified. She was a new immigrant from China, having obtained her US green card less than two years ago. She wasn't truly American yet.

Locke shrugged, "It's already a crazy world..."

At that moment, his phone rang, and he had to pull over to answer it.

A cold voice came through the phone, "Officer Locke, I have finished making the statement at the Wilshire Police Station..."

Locke was a bit confused, instinctively thinking it was Linda, the Chinese girl he had just encountered. But he quickly realized she couldn't have finished so quickly!

He asked, "Hoar..."

"Beep... beep..."

What's going on, she hung up!

Locke suddenly realized whose call it was – Miss Daisy!

He smirked, pocketed his phone, but the fact that she had called to inform him she had fulfilled her promise indicated her manners weren't too bad.

David curiously asked, "Whose call was it?"

"Daisy Greenberg!"

Locke continued driving and casually asked, "What happened to the poor guy who attacked Daisy Greenberg yesterday?"

"Let me check..."

David made a call and replied, "Miss Greenberg didn't press charges against him, just applied for a restraining order..."

Locke sighed, "The kind Miss Greenberg!"

At noon, Locke, David, Mona, and Nathan had lunch together again. This time, they didn't eat Mexican fast food, but Chinese food.

The famous Panda Express in the United States.

Locke ordered General Tso's chicken, although he knew it wasn't authentic Chinese cuisine, but he quite liked its sweet and sour taste.

The four of them shared the bizarre cases they encountered in the morning. Mona and Nathan also encountered a bizarre case – a tall and strong man actually reported being abused at home.

"Do you know? He looks like he's 1.9 meters tall, 120 kg, but his wife is only 1.6 meters tall, less than 50 kg..."

Nathan couldn't help laughing, "At first, both Mona and I thought it was his wife who was abused..."

Mona sighed, "There were no signs of abuse on him. We could only treat it as a false report..."

After Nathan finished his orange chicken, he looked satisfied, "I hope there's nothing in the afternoon, so we can enjoy our vacation in peace..."

Seeing Locke, David, Mona, and Nathan all staring at him with unchanging expressions, he suddenly realized he misspoke, "Um, sorry, this meal is on me..."
