Los Angeles Legendary Sleuth

Humanity fulfilled its promise, allowing it to enjoy the treatment of a national treasure, eating the best food every day, with massages and baths, living in a large and spacious chicken coop.

The other hens were envious and jealous.

Everyone is a chicken, so why does she enjoy the treatment of a national treasure?

As a result, more hens began laying eggs, and these hens were also rewarded.

Then, more and more hens started laying eggs, and the king of chickens' decree was completely abolished.

Hens resumed laying eggs, and the chicken population grew larger and larger, with no risk of extinction.

Chicken meat and eggs once again became a delicacy on the human dining table."

Park Zhengmin said coldly, "Ma Zheng is like the first hen to lay an egg for his own benefit, betraying his own kind under the allure of capitalism, allowing the entire tribe to be slaughtered, their meat eaten and blood drunk by capital again. Shouldn't he be killed?"

Seeing Luke and Jackson expressionless, Park Zhengmin continued, "I know that when it comes to the word worker, you might think it has nothing to do with you.

Actually, except for those who can gain without labor, people in all other industries belong to the worker class; it's just changed from factories to companies, from machines to computers.

You are equally exploited by your bosses and capital; the harder you work, the more your boss's life will flourish."

Luke understood the motive for the murder and continued to ask, "You killed Hashimoto Yumi because she worked too hard?"

"That's right, this woman was the vice president of an architectural design company, a strong woman, who almost worked overtime every day, rarely rested on weekends, almost had no entertainment or friends.

She squeezed herself to the limit, and the work pressure was pushing her to a mental breakdown.

She did street work not for money but as a sick release; the work had already destroyed this woman.

Moreover, she not only ruined herself but had also started to affect her assistant.

She not only had high demands on herself but also very high demands on her assistant, Melanie Hickman. Melanie Hickman endured high-intensity work pressure for a long time and had already shown signs of depression.

If it continued, it could possibly develop into a mental illness."

"Describe how you killed Hashimoto Yumi?"

"Melanie Hickman participated in a mutual help group, where she talked about her difficulties at work and the impact Hashimoto Yumi had on her.

After I heard about it, I found Hashimoto Yumi's behavior very bad and saw her as a traitor as well.

So, I started secretly following and investigating Hashimoto Yumi. I'm not a maniac; before taking action, I always gain a detailed understanding of the target.

I followed Hashimoto Yumi closely, initially surprised to see her do street work. Later, I realized she likely had a mental problem due to excessive work pressure.

Afterward, I approached her, returned with her to her apartment, deliberately probing her with questions to gain further understanding.

She was not happy, already having mental issues, so I decided to liberate her."

Jackson questioned, "What right do you have to liberate her?"

"She was a traitor; I have the right to judge her."

Jackson retorted, "You keep labeling others as traitors. So what has your so-called 'Workers' Injury Mutual Aid Society' brought for the worker class?"

Park Zhengmin laughed, "Do you know why we have a two-day weekend and eight-hour workday regulation?"

Jackson said, "You also mentioned it's a regulation; hasn't it always been like this?"

"Don't be naive. At the beginning of the industrial revolution in the UK, a factory foreman once said, 'Give me a young man with a healthy body, and I will not let him survive in front of a machine for more than three years.'

Capital has always been greedy; all holidays and eight-hour workdays were won by workers through struggle.

And this struggle was extremely cruel, built on countless remains.

Have you ever heard of the Pinkerton Detective Agency?

Look into what they relied on to rise.

The Workers' Injury Mutual Aid Society has existed for hundreds of years, being one of the earliest mutual aid societies, yet has remained unsung due to the suppression by capital.

The Workers' Injury Mutual Aid Society has been quietly fighting for workers' interests all along.

Don't think a two-day weekend and eight-hour workday are natural; many countries still haven't achieved it.

Even if they did, capital would push back again, encroaching on workers' rights.

Capital would never miss a chance to work people like slaves, never." Park Zhengmin clenched his fist, "At this time, we must unite and never surrender.

Once someone gives in, capital will exploit the weakness and gradually divide workers.

The first person who gives in is a traitor; a thousand-mile embankment will be destroyed by an ant hole; shouldn't such a person die?"

Luke flipped to the next document, "You killed the restaurant owner, Ma Jiehui, because he caused undue competitiveness?"

"Undue competitiveness, that's a good term to use.

You're not wrong; this person deserved it even more.

To attract customers, he maliciously lowered the prices of his dishes, seemingly benefiting customers who praised his righteousness. But in truth, it harmed others without benefiting himself.

Perhaps saying this would make you feel sympathy for Ma Jiehui, but it's because you're all customers, viewing it from the customer's standpoint.

He lowered prices and had more sales, affecting other restaurants' business and profits. He made money, and other restaurants went bankrupt.

If you considered it from other restaurants' perspectives, you'd know how reprehensible he is." Park Zhengmin snorted and continued, "If there was such a competitiveness king in your industry, you'd know how despicable it is.
