Chapter 7001
From the moment he landed in Melbourne,
Charlieβs pace was unwittingly accelerated by the events unfolding.
On the way in, heβd been mulling over various scenarios for meeting Leon,
Formulating several lines of dialogue,
And mentally preparing for several possible responses.
As soon as he stepped off the plane,
He rushed to the hospital.
But upon arrival, he discovered that Leon had disappeared again!
His only thought was to quickly locate him,
Never considering that this was actually a trap set by Leon himself.
The three of them rushed to the nearest police station and met with a senior sergeant.
According to Issacβs previous investigation, the initial attack by the teenagers occurred within this police stationβs jurisdiction,
And the case was handled by this same police station.
Now that Leon had disappeared again within the same precinct,
It was natural to seek their assistance.
The senior police sergeant the three men met was named Treve Davidson.
After learning the purpose of Charlie and the othersβ visit, he said to them,
βI donβt have any clear information on Mr. Tang.β
βHe was taken to the hospital for treatment after the incident.β
βDue to his serious injuries, our officers didnβt immediately question him, so we donβt know his true identity.β
βAs for your claim that heβs already left the hospital,β
βWe canβt spare officers to help you locate him at the moment.β
Charlie frowned and asked,\
βSo, you still havenβt figured out his true legal status in Australia?β
βYes,β
Treve nodded, casually saying,
βThis manβs identity is still very suspicious.β
βBased on my personal experience, heβs most likely not a legal immigrant.β
βHeβs likely a stowaway who entered the country illegally.β
βOr an illegal alien.β
Charlie felt a little strange.
In the chat logs Claire had shown him,
The informant had said that Leon was a recent immigrant,
But now it seemed that this information was inaccurate.
He couldnβt help but wonder if Leonβs hasty escape from the hospital with injuries was because he lacked legal status in Australia.
In Charlieβs opinion, the way he got the news was very accidental,
A coincidence among coincidences.
Leon left the hospital with injuries, certainly not to avoid him,
But most likely to avoid the police.
This is precisely the brilliance of this series of schemes.
It started by chance, which would give the parties involved the illusion that they were outsiders and in the dark.
When Charlie fell into the inertia of thinking and the trap of logic,
He was getting further and further away from the essence of the matter.
After knowing that he could not find any useful information about Leon from the police,
Charlie asked the sheriff:
βWhat is the current situation of the teenagers who were involved?β
Trev spread his hands, shrugged casually, and smiled:
βThey have all been released.β
βReleased?!β
Charlie frowned and questioned:
βThe person was beaten so badly,β
βAnd itβs only been a day, why did you let them go?β
Treve smiled and said, βYou said those are teenagers; they are not very old.β
βAll we can do is criticize and educate them.β
βIf the victims need compensation,β
βThey can sue their guardians through the court.β
Charlie asked again: βIf I remember correctly,β
βIn Australia, the minimum age of criminal responsibility should be ten years old, right?β
Treve waved his hand and said perfunctorily:
βTen years old is only in theory.β
βThe real criminal responsibility must be over fourteen years old.β
βMoreover, there is a provision in our law that if the prosecutor cannot prove that a child under fourteen clearly knows that he or she is responsible,β
βIf someoneβs actions are wrong, then they can be presumed not to have criminal responsibility.β
βThis is called βdefault of criminal responsibility.β You can look it up in a law book.β
Seeing that Treve seemed to be favoring one side, Charlie said,
βI saw the video of the incident.β
βAmong the suspects who assaulted people, several are at least 1.7 meters tall.β
βI canβt say theyβre all over 14, but at least one should be, right?β
