Can I ask for compensation for lost wages and mental damage?

Xu Ning and the Mercedes-Benz owner's statements were inconsistent; there was no doubt someone was deliberately concealing the truth and lying.

Officer Huang had seen plenty of such cases.

Many people are like this, spouting nonsense, trying to evade their responsibilities.

And when irrefutable evidence is placed before them, they start crying bitterly.

He was already used to it.

Officer Huang's voice carried authority as he said, "Let me remind you, leniency for confession is not a joke."

"If you conceal information or lie, then once we uncover the truth, there will be no chance for a lighter sentence."

"Also, are you sure you don't need us to mediate for a settlement?"

The Mercedes-Benz owner's eyes darted around, his mind working furiously.

In fact, from the moment he entered the Police Station, he had a bad feeling.

Even judging by the Police Officers' attitudes, it seemed he was more at fault than Xu Ning.

In other words, if he remained stubborn and refused to settle, it was uncertain if the delivery guy would be detained, but he definitely would be.

However, if he settled, he was very unwilling, because he was the one who suffered in the actual fight.

After much deliberation, he finally gritted his teeth and made a decision.

"I…"

However, just as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Xu Ning.

"I don't need mediation, and I won't settle!"

Xu Ning's smile held a hint of coldness, his tone firm.

"You…" The Mercedes-Benz owner couldn't help but want to curse!

You won't settle?

You're the one who got the better end of the deal, aren't you!

This is simply outrageous!

At this moment, Officer Huang and Officer Shen exchanged glances, both seeing a touch of helplessness in each other's eyes.

Alright, since there's no settlement, then let's investigate!

"I'll go help you check the surveillance footage," Officer Shen said to Officer Huang.

Just as Officer Shen stood up, Xu Ning waved his hand and said, "No need for surveillance footage, I always carry a sports camera with me."

As he spoke, he took off the miniature sports camera that was discreetly clipped to his chest.

Officer Shen's mouth twitched uncontrollably; he didn't know what to say.

What kind of normal person carries a sports camera for no reason!

But then he thought about Xu Ning's special constitution of passively attracting trouble, and it didn't seem so strange.

At least with the sports camera, he had a piece of evidence in hand!

Just like now, wasn't it extremely useful!

The footage from the sports camera was much better than roadside surveillance.

After all, surveillance angles were sometimes too far, and most importantly, most didn't have sound.

Xu Ning copied the surveillance video to his phone and handed it to the two Police Officers.

And while the two Police Officers watched the footage, the Mercedes-Benz owner visibly became flustered.

After all, he couldn't possibly not know how their conflict started.

A few minutes later, the two Police Officers, having finished watching the footage, looked at the Mercedes-Benz owner with less than favorable expressions.

This guy, truly arrogant!

Xu Ning was waiting at a red light in the non-motorized vehicle lane, doing absolutely nothing wrong!

It was bad enough that he cut across to overtake, but he also honked his horn frantically at Xu Ning; what else could that be but trouble?

What happened next was even more exaggerated; he continuously cursed and even tried to hit Xu Ning's head with a rubber stick!

If he had actually connected, it could have been life-threatening!

It was only because he missed; otherwise, the Public Security Administration Punishment Law wouldn't apply, it would be a direct criminal offense!

As for the Mercedes-Benz owner not getting the upper hand and instead getting hit twice by Xu Ning, that was his own humiliation!

Xu Ning was definitely not at fault; anyone would call it legitimate self-defense.

"The facts are already very clear. Now I will penalize your actions according to the Public Security Administration Punishment Law!"

"10 days of administrative detention and a 500 yuan fine, effective immediately."

"If you have any objections to our penalty, you can apply for administrative reconsideration within 60 days."

Officer Huang, as the responding Police Officer, directly issued the penalty to the Mercedes-Benz owner given the conclusive evidence.

As for Xu Ning, of course, he had no fault whatsoever.

"I refuse!"

"Why am I being detained while he gets away with everything?"

"I'm the one who got hit!"

"You're biased towards him, you're protecting him, there's foul play, I want to complain, I want to complain about you!"

The Mercedes-Benz owner was not having it; he stood up and roared hysterically.

"Of course, you can complain, and you can also apply for administrative reconsideration."

"However, you cannot resist, or we will have to take coercive measures!"

Officer Huang's expression remained unchanged; he didn't even stand up, merely stating coldly.

Xu Ning looked at the exasperated Mercedes-Benz owner with a half-smile, his face clearly displaying the words "serves him right."

Suddenly, he remembered something and tentatively spoke.

"Officer Huang, can I ask him for compensation for lost wages and emotional distress?"

He recalled the time when he was a designated driver, and a mischievous child grabbed the steering wheel, causing a car accident, and the old man extorted him.

At that time, the old man compensated him 1,500 yuan, which, after being amplified by the system's reward, became 150 million.

The situation was similar now; if there was compensation for lost wages and emotional distress, there would definitely be an amplification during the final settlement.

Officer Shen's expression was incredibly strange, and he muttered to himself.

I always feel that your request for compensation and emotional distress is a bit too odd!

Are you really short of this money?

However, since Xu Ning asked, he still had to answer.

"Of course, you can ask for compensation for lost wages and emotional distress."

"However, that's only possible if both parties reach a settlement during the mediation process."

"After all, we don't have the right to order him to compensate you; that's a matter for the courts!"

Xu Ning suddenly understood; so that's how it was.

Then he wouldn't ask for compensation; he'd rather the Mercedes-Benz owner be detained.

After signing the statement, Xu Ning walked out of the interrogation room and saw Liu Qiming already waiting there.

"Young Master Xu, has the mediation concluded, or is the investigation continuing?" Lawyer Liu quickly approached and asked.

Xu Ning shrugged, smiling easily, and said, "I don't accept mediation. The case is pretty much over now, he's been detained, and I'm fine."

Lawyer Liu breathed a sigh of relief, a smile appearing on his face.

"That's good, that's good. I was worried I arrived too late!"

Xu Ning shook Lawyer Liu's hand and said, "No, no, and I'm sorry you had to make a special trip. If you're not busy later, let's have a meal together; otherwise, I'd really feel bad."

"That would be wonderful! If I can freeload a meal from Young Master Xu, I can brag to Lawyer Hua tomorrow." Lawyer Liu naturally knew how to flatter people.

At this moment, Officer Huang was genuinely surprised to see that a lawyer had actually shown up, and so quickly too.

After all, for minor cases like brawls, lawyers often couldn't be bothered to appear.

Now, not only had a lawyer come, but he was also worried he was late, which was enough to indicate one thing.

Perhaps Xu Ning had more influence than he imagined.

Well, someone with such influence delivering food on an electric scooter every day, truly, some people have the strangest quirks!
