Shoucheng Zhu's son couldn't be bothered with the wounds on his face, and made several phone calls trying to borrow money from friends.

Unfortunately, his new colleagues were not very familiar with him and naturally refused to lend him large sums of money when he stammered for a reason, and politely refused; his friends and clients in China knew that he had gone to the United States, and when they heard that he had borrowed money, they knew that there was no return, and they all said with a grin that they were short of money.

He spent an hour on the phone, but only managed to borrow 30,000 RMB from his high school friends.

My son was holding his cell phone, and his eyes were dark.

The good thing is, at least visitation is still allowed.

But when the son saw his father's miserable condition with his own eyes, he was almost scared out of his mind.

Just a few hours away, Shoucheng Zhu the whole person is disheveled, eyes lost most of the essence, legs shaking, a good pair of pants, by the yellow-brown filth stained most of the strip.

Once he saw his son, Shoucheng Zhu's eyes stagnated for a few seconds, before slowly lighting up, as if he saw a straw, darted forward, stumbled and fell in front of the glass, sounding miserable: "Son, Ah Ning! Save me, take me out!"

Ning Zhu was bluffed by his old father, "Dad! What's wrong with you?!"

He turned angrily to the guards: "You are abusing! It's outright physical abuse! I want to sue you!"

The guard's answer was a careless one: "This is an internal conflict between inmates, and we have stopped it."

Shoucheng Zhu cried out in pain, slamming his fists on the table: "I can't stay here for one second! Those people are completely crazy! They're perverts!"

Ning Zhu swallowed his saliva, not daring to think about what had happened to his respected father, but only to repeatedly ask: "Dad, do you feel any discomfort?"

"It's good that you're here ...... you're here." Shoucheng Zhu nervously interrupted his words, where can still care about maintaining the usual poise, the bottom of his eyes flashed with unusual excitement, overflowing with the fire of hope, urgently said, "Quick, quickly take me out!"

Ning Zhu was dumbfounded.

"Dad, calm down ......" Ning Zhu held his tongue for half a day and could only come up with this meaningless comfort, "Maybe, it will have to wait... ..."

Shoucheng Zhu leaned forward, pulling the back of the head injury, immediately painful heart fire rose, the tone is not as gentle as usual: "I thought I could bail?

Ning Zhu was puzzled: "But I have the money on hand ......"

Shoucheng Zhu was so anxious that he changed his tune: "Borrow it! Borrow it!!!"

Ning Zhu saw that his father had already suffered to such an extent, and immediately felt distressed: "Dad, I'll think of another way, can you take it easy-"

Shoucheng Zhu How can we not be in a hurry?

The prisons here in the United States are full of bandits, hooligans and robbers! The police and the bandits are all in cahoots!

He couldn't help but hate the teenager who was far away from home again.

...... If it wasn't for Xiaochi Chi, those weird dreams, and the recording he was associated with, how could he have been forced to come to the United States, and how could he have been unlucky enough to be locked up in such a devil's den?

Shoucheng Zhu hoarse voice, nails rustling at the glass, face gray defeat: "Go borrow! If you're a day late, you'll only get my corpse ......"

Hearing his father's almost desperate plea for help, Ning Zhu was terrified and had to reassure him while seeking help from a prominent Chinese law firm in the state overnight.

Because Ning Zhu himself does not have such a dirty sex fetish, when he came to the United States, he only gave a cursory glance at the laws in this area and did not pay much attention to them, thinking that although the problem was not small, at least it could be solved.

However, Ning Zhu's mind was blown by the questions his lawyer threw at him.

The lawyer asked, "Where did the video come from? Did he download it from the Internet?"

Shoucheng Zhu's computer was detained by the police as evidence, so Ning Zhu can only shake his head: "I have not seen it with my own eyes, I heard that he only downloaded a few pictures ......"

The lawyer said, "How many is how many?"

Ning Zhu couldn't tell us why.

After Ning Zhu was paid a large amount of money in advance, the lawyer took a trip to the police station with his briefcase.

Ning Zhu followed the lawyer, waited in the hall, and when he finished talking with the sheriff, he immediately got up and asked, "How is it? How is it?"

The lawyer's face was so stony that water could drip out of it: "Come out with me."

Once in the car, the lawyer said directly, "It's hard to do."

Ning Zhu's heart dropped: "How so?"

"He was in possession of 11 photos downloaded from the Internet and related to child pornography," the lawyer said.

Once he heard the number, Ning Zhu was slightly relieved and defended his father: "My father should just not understand it, he told me that he saw the pop-up window and clicked in. It can't be blamed on him ......"

"But it's illegal all the same."

The stress that had built up over the night caused Ning Zhu to burst out upon hearing the words, "What kind of law is this? Aren't people allowed to be curious? Why should we arrest the viewers and not the people who actually make the videos and pictures? Besides, what serious harm can there be in looking at a picture? There are so many people who love to watch horror movies on the Internet, are they all murderers?"

Despite trying to maintain a professional attitude, however, there was still more than a hint of disgust in the lawyer's expression: "But he also has more than 170 child pornography photos of unknown origin, as well as 21 related short videos of unknown origin. Mr. Zhu, how are you going to explain this for him?"

Ning Zhu's mouth opened slightly, stunned on the spot, the unspoken words were all blocked in his throat, choking his throat knot rolled straight.

"...... source ...... unknown?"

"Yes." Realizing what a hot potato he had received, the lawyer straightened his bow tie in annoyance, "Even Shoucheng Zhu himself could not give a reasonable explanation for the origin of the videos. He said it was downloaded from a domestic website, but when asked which one, he couldn't say. The videos do not look like they were ripped, and there is no trace of the download in the history. ...... In addition, is your father a teacher?"

Some terrible suspicion gradually fermented into a pool of fermenting black water, immersing Ning Zhu as a whole.

Ning Zhu gave a dry "ah".

That's right," the lawyer said. He had graduation group photos of every class on his computer. There are more than a dozen children's faces that match the children in the videos and pictures."

Ning Zhu's mind emitted a clear sound of collapsing objects, as if silent, but deafening.

The lawyer laid out the cold legal text: "The law in this state has heavy penalties for pedophiles, even simply downloading, distributing, and possessing obscene - obscene materials involving real children can be punished with prison - confinement for more than 5 years and less than 20 years. Not to mention the fact that it is highly likely that he has committed acts of harm and indecent - molestation against children ......"

"It's just possible ......" Ning Zhu's world turned upside down with the feeling of his idol crumbling, but the glimmer of instinct that he had, he couldn't help but defend his father, "Besides, my father is not a United States citizen, if he can be extradited back to his country ......"

"But he has already committed a violation of the law. It is undisputed that he has engaged in unusual snooping behavior with your neighbor's children and has downloaded inappropriate pictures, according to reports. Now, the United States police have reason to suspect that he is a repeat pedophile who is behaving badly and posing a significant danger to society, and certainly need to raise bail and keep him under control as long as possible. As for extradition and deportation, I'm sorry, Mr. Zhu, but you should know that Shoucheng Zhu is now in violation of United States law in the United States, and it's not something that can be easily resolved with a simple 'extradition'."

Ning Zhu still had a glimmer of hope: "So, if I want to bail him out, are there any lenders I can recommend?"

"Absolutely. United States has a professional bail bond loan business. If you are in need, I can recommend it to you." The lawyer sighed, "However, I would advise you to be cautious about committing yourself. United States catches pedophiles like China catches drug addicts, and I hope you understand the seriousness of this matter."

Ning Zhu collapsed into his car seat, his gaze dull.

He stayed up all night and kept watch in front of the loan company until he went to work. He easily waited for the staff to mortgage the car in exchange for a $50,000 mortgage payment.

But when he rushed to the police station for bail processing, he was informed that the entire balance in his joint savings card with his wife had been requested to be frozen half an hour ago, even the $50,000 he had just deposited.

Ning Zhu thinks he knows who did it.

He called his wife, who answered, but only said that he should come home as soon as possible and that he had something to talk to him about.

Ning Zhu was simply physically and mentally exhausted, and after driving home, he saw his wife, who also looked haggard, and opened his mouth, but did not even have the strength to argue.

He whispered, " Mei A, stop it, give me the money, we'll get Dad out and we'll discuss what to do afterwards, okay?"

Mei A, his wife, is nestled in the sofa, her eyelids downcast and oblivious.

Ning Zhu continued to persuade: "I know that my father has made a mistake this time, but to be fair, if your father had committed a crime, could you not fish for him? Can you see him suffer in jail?"

"Don't compare your father to my father." Mei A let out a sneer and lifted her puffy eyes, "You know, what good things your dad did at China?"

......

Domestic, in a small town.

The story of Shoucheng Zhu has turned over with incredible speed.

The culprit fled abroad, in many people's view, although this is equivalent to a weak heart to admit guilt, but the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, anyone can not control him.

Many people said sourly that it is good to have a good son, killing people can hide abroad and live happily. This old Zhu head can really ancestral grave smoke.

Only Xiaochi Chi and Ying Lou know that his family's ancestral grave is not just smoking, it is on fire.

Xiaochi Chi keeps an eye on what's going on in the United States.

Shoucheng Zhu was "well treated" by the criminals on his first day inside.

These criminals are not the so-called sense of justice, but the "□" is a very nasty crime, is a very good, "everyone to be punished" outlet, to vent their excess energy.

Although the guards changed his cell at his request, Shoucheng Zhu soon found that he "enjoyed" the same treatment no matter where he moved.

So far, Shoucheng Zhu has been in jail for a whole week and is not dead as he claims, but it is not bad to say that "life is worse than death".

By his third night in prison, he was unable to walk and had to live on a liquid diet.

His son, Ning Zhu, has also gone from actively campaigning earlier to being silent today, going to work quietly every day for fear that his colleagues will find out about the incident and make a big deal out of it. However, his bosses are said to have learned about the incident and HR is re-evaluating Ning Zhu and does not seem to be planning to let Ning Zhu work in the company anymore.

In fact, from the first day of Shoucheng Zhu's imprisonment, after having tasted the taste of the mop bar, Xiaochi Chi's eye repentance value bar is a ride and a gallop.

It is reasonable to say that this is the last world, Xiaochi Chi has also collected all the various function cards in the card pool, can leave a long time ago.

However, Xiaochi Chi did not say anything about leaving.

Since he wanted to stay longer, Ying Lou didn't want to leave.

He can understand the great lure of the world for Xiaochi Chi.

For Xiaochi Chi, he has a life that he never had before.

It was a life exactly like his, a life Xiaochi Chi himself never had the right to have.

No Shoucheng Zhu, no psychological shadows, no need for revenge, no nightmares, no sudden awakenings in the middle of the night.

He has a new circle of friends, his grades are picking up, and his teachers are paying more and more attention to him ......

What's more, this person is also named Xiaochi Chi, with the same name, appearance, personality and memory as him.

Ying Lou has complete confidence in knowing that Xiaochi Chi will not dominate another person's life, but a slight indulgence is completely understandable.

While waiting for the task to be completed, Ying Lou made a trip back to the main god space.

After he returned, Xiaochi Chi asked him, "How many more missions does 089 have?"

Xiaochi Chi has been asking this question a lot lately, and every time he goes back, Xiaochi Chi will ask it again.

Ying Lou, who always had Feihong Dong in mind, laughed and said, "You care about him a lot?"

Xiaochi Chi peeled the grapes and replied, "Maybe when we go back to hand in the assignment, we can finally meet."

"Then it may be too late." Ying Lou stroked his head, "Knowing you were going to ask, I specifically asked him yesterday, there are still 12 more times, and it's ...... just a day or two away."
