She looked at the police officer with a surprised expression and asked, “Yes, that’s me. What’s wrong?”
The police officer continued to ask, “Let me check your personal information with you. You are Elaine Parker from Aurous Hill, Oskia. You’re taking the Cathay Pacific flight CX845 from New York to Hong Kong this time, right?”
“That’s right...” Elaine was even more puzzled and asked in disbelief, “Is there any problem with my flight?”
The female police officer said coldly, “There is no problem with your flight, but there is a problem with your suitcase! Please come with us to assist us with the investigation.”
Elaine hurriedly said, “What could possibly be wrong with my suitcase? Aside from some personal clothing and some local products from New York, I didn’t put anything else like lithium batteries in it...”
The female police officer snorted coldly, “There is no need for any unnecessary sophistry. There are other passengers here, so please take the initiative to come with me so as to not affect other people’s flights.”
Having said that, she took out a pair of handcuffs from her waist and warned, “Listen carefully to what I say. You have the right to remain silent, otherwise, everything you say may and can be used as evidence against you. You have the right to have a lawyer present at your trial, and if you cannot afford a lawyer, we will assign one to you. Do you understand these rights?”
Elaine panicked immediately and blurted out loud, “What the hell do you think you’re doing?! I am a distinguished first-class passenger. Who gave you the courage to come here and arrest me? Besides, what law did I break?!”
The female police officer said coldly, “Elaine, you’re an Oskian, so I will kindly warn you that this is the United States. Don’t try any form of resistance here, or you will definitely be the one to suffer!”
Elaine said angrily, “Don’t f*ck with me! I’m an upright and righteous person, so I will not be afraid of police officers anywhere, let alone in the United States. So what if it’s the United Nations?! I am not afraid at all!”
The female police officer had obviously lost her patience at this time. She took out her handcuffs and said sternly, “Elaine! I’m asking you to turn around and put your hands behind your back. You should not resist or run away, or my colleagues may use equipment on you which includes but is not limited to taser guns. You’d better cooperate with us!”
