I am a literary giant in Europe

Chapter 686 Paris Riots
Liu Jin never expected that his mother would bring relatives from their hometown with her this time!
There were sixteen people in total.

Alizee personally accompanied me to apply for the visa at the consulate in Shanghai.

That's quite a commotion!

Liu Jin hung up the phone and looked the house up and down. Theoretically, it was big enough for him to live in; at worst, he would stay in the living room.

So I called Professor Michel and asked for a week off.

When relatives come to visit, they should stay in Paris for a few days, otherwise, wouldn't it be a wasted trip to France?
There are also cars...

His BMW and Chloe's Peugeot are definitely not suitable; they need to rent cars.

Mom, you should have told me in advance!

I'm already 25, time is really running out.

Liu Jin called Mela and asked her to take care of the cats and dogs at home.

The next morning, he went straight to the train station and boarded a train bound for Paris!
……

I rested in Paris for two days and also paid a visit to Arnaud.

The last time Mr. An called him, the two had a rather unpleasant argument, and Liu Jin never contacted him again after that.

It wasn't just him, but others in the country as well.

For example, Chairman Ren!
He previously performed Unit 731 at his Warsaw concert, but domestic media did not follow up.

He was very dissatisfied that the external propaganda department had not made any move.

Although his father called to praise him, Liu Jin still felt uneasy.

This is one of the reasons why he didn't go back in August... Although he thought to himself that he had forgotten, he was ultimately a little disappointed.

As for Mr. An...

I sensed that he was slowly becoming more and more like a bureaucrat.

Considering his background at Wuhan University, Liu Jin had an extra layer of concern.

We should try to get in touch with Tianxian.

But domestically...

Just watch!
When Arnaud Lagardère heard that Liu Jin needed a car, he immediately arranged for a bus from the group to be at Liu Jin's disposal.

It's still the Athena Hotel, and it's still a suite.

That night, Sophie secretly came over, and the two of them made love all night, so much so that Liu Jin almost overslept the next day.

Early in the morning, Sophie left the hotel with a beaming smile.

Liu Jin, supporting his back, boarded the bus.

"What happened?"

As they passed through District 8, Liu Jin frowned and asked, looking at the situation on the street.

"Didn't you watch the news?"

"what happened?"

"Yesterday, two Black teenagers rammed a police car on a motorcycle and died on the spot."

I reckon they're going to cause trouble!

"No!"

Liu Jin's eyes widened.

Did he crash his motorcycle into a police car?

What kind of madness must one have to be to do something like this?
If this had happened in America, he probably wouldn't have been killed, but his magazine would have been emptied.

So, the way Blackie thinks sometimes feels quite unbelievable...

The driver was a local, but his accent didn't sound like a Parisian accent; it sounded more like an accent from the surrounding area.

He was a typical Gaul, with fair skin.

Well, they're not actually that white... To be honest, when standing next to Chinese people, many older white European men look more like people of color.

He laughed and said, "They came from refugees who couldn't find work in Paris, so they stole motorcycles, robbed people, and caused trouble everywhere."

Mr. Amos, you've been in France for quite some time now, you should be able to sense that the security situation isn't as good as it was a few years ago… The influx of large numbers of refugees is very troublesome. Especially those with religious ties, it's even more frightening.”

"That's right, that's right. Sometimes when I go out at night, I'm also very worried."

"Right, right? Parisian nightlife hasn't been as vibrant as it used to be these past two years."

Africa, ZD, Eastern Europe...

It seems like refugees from all over the world are flocking to Europe.

There's this stupid female celebrity who's shouting for China to accept refugees?
Are you out of your mind?!

Just look at the state of Europe, and you'll know whether or not we should accept it.

Of course, movie stars are no longer lowly actors; they're high and mighty now.

Even in Europe, they wouldn't see the lower classes... "Let's hurry up and pick them up to go back to the hotel."

In his heart, Liu Jin was cursing incessantly.

Why would something like this happen out of the blue?

In recent years, Paris has experienced one or two riots every year.

A few years ago, a Black man was electrocuted while fleeing from the police, which directly triggered a riot.

Last year, it seems that the refugee issue also triggered a student riot.

And then there was the massive strike two years ago that affected more than forty cities… Just thinking about it gives me a headache.

Liu Jin couldn't recall whether there were any riots in Paris in 07, because he had already returned to China by then.

But judging from this trend...

Armed police have appeared on the streets; something's not right.

This left him with no choice but to pray silently in his heart.

……

RNM, the flight is delayed!
The flight, which was originally scheduled to arrive at 3 p.m., was delayed by two and a half hours.

This made Liu Jin's heart jump.

He simply sat on the bus and asked the driver to turn on the radio.

If there is any situation, it will be broadcast immediately.

Sure enough, around 5 p.m., FranceInfo began broadcasting live updates from Paris.

In the 16th arrondissement of Paris, in the northern suburbs of Auteuil, large numbers of Black people began to gather.

There are already a lot of Black people in the 16th and 17th wards.

In addition to refugees, it has become a major area of ​​crime in Paris.

"Let's watch TV."

The driver, Maotai, turned on the car's TV and searched for news channels.

Sure enough, images of a large group of Black people appeared on television...

Not only in Ottoman, but also in Percy, large numbers of Black people began to gather.

Paris police also began to assemble, forming a standoff with the other side.

"Oh my god, is this going to be a war?"

"Hmm, it seems like they haven't caused any trouble this year, but I guess they're going to explode this time."

"Then how do we get back?"

“Go around to the south... go through the eighth district and then get to the hotel.”

The security situation there is relatively good. As you saw when we arrived, there were police officers on patrol, so there shouldn't be any major problems.

"That's good, that's good!"

However, before Liu Jin could finish speaking, the television began reporting that a large-scale gathering of Black people had also begun in the 17th District.

"Sometimes I find it strange that the place I live in now is fucking Paris, not Africa?"

Ma Aotai couldn't help but complain.

It's only because Liu Jin is sitting here; if it were anyone else, he might not have dared to say these things.

After all, work is not easy!

“When I watched the French team before, even though there were black players, they were only a minority.”

The current French team has basically become a black French team... It feels completely different from before..."

"Yes, yes, it used to be Zidane, Papin, now..."

Liu Jin expressed the same view.

At this time, the phone rang.

He picked it up, glanced at it, and answered the call without thinking.

"Qianqian? You've arrived?"

"Where are you going through security?"

"Gate 31, Gate 31, I'm waiting for you at the gate!"

Liu Jin hung up the phone, said goodbye to Ma Aotai, and ran out.

It's already six o'clock!
He now only hopes that his mother and the others can get through security soon, return to Paris city center, and get to the hotel as soon as possible.

Didn't you see that people over there in Oteyuer have already started throwing Molotov cocktails?

He's worried about one thing now: whether this riot will spread to the whole of Paris!
