At noon.
Xiang Nan received the news that Edward had met Sheldon.
"Raj, this client you introduced to me is really weird." Edward complained in a tone full of complaints. "After meeting me, he first suspected that I was a fake lawyer, pretending to be a 'good policeman' with people from the National Defense Department. Bad Cop'.
After I repeatedly revealed my identity, he asked me to sue the Ministry of National Security, demand an apology, and demand his immediate release. He also asked me to provide him with toothpaste and toothbrush, pajamas, mattresses, and a toilet game console...
I met him for thirty minutes and he didn't say a single serious word to me. This is the first time I have encountered such an unreliable customer. "
When an average person is arrested and sent to jail, even if they do not cooperate with the police, they will actively cooperate with the lawyer. Because only by relying on lawyers can they fight for their rights.
But Sheldon was uncooperative throughout the whole process. He neither discussed the facts of the case nor cared about the case. He just kept messing around. To be honest, it is really too desperate.
You must know that the lawyer's meeting time is also limited. If he does not seize the time to talk about business, it will be difficult for the lawyer to help him, and he will have to stay in jail overnight.
There are no gangsters or gangsters in the prison. A weak and vulnerable boy like him would really enjoy it if he entered there.
"If he wasn't a weirdo, something like this wouldn't have happened." Upon hearing this, Xiang Nan couldn't help but shake his head.
Sheldon has been in jail and is still not honest. He still wants to act as if he were a man of heaven and earth. This is really hard to change.
It can also be seen from this point that it is really unrealistic to expect that Sheldon will wake up, change his ways, and start a new life after he is released from prison.
Therefore, his desire to save Sheldon suddenly faded away.
"Edward, he can do whatever he likes, just stay with him. The longer he does it, the more your lawyer fees will be, right?" Xiang Nan said with a smile.
Since Sheldon still doesn't want to change, he is not in a hurry to release him and just let him stay in prison for a few more days.
"I understand." Edward nodded, "By the way, give Leonard's plea letter to me as soon as possible, and I will try to bail him out as soon as possible."
"OK, no problem." Xiang Nan agreed.
…
After eating, Xiang Nan and Howard collected letters of mercy again, and finally collected 180 letters.
There are also some confiscated people who promised to be happy, but they are patients with advanced procrastination. Xiang Nan is no longer prepared to wait any longer.
After collecting them all, Howard drove himself to give them to his cousin.
Xiang Nan conveyed the lawyer's reply to Mary Cooper and Missy.
When they heard that Sheldon was still dishonest after entering prison, doing so many things, and making many demands, they couldn't help but feel angry and ashamed at the same time.
I really didn't expect Sheldon to be so confused. He didn't want to come out quickly, but he always paid attention to these boring things. It was really stupid.
"Raj, my son is really confused." Mary Cooper said sadly, "What do you think we should do now?"
"Aunt, I've asked the lawyer to help as much as possible." Xiang Nan said, and then suggested, "Aunt, don't worry, our lawyers are still very capable, just be patient and wait."
"Okay." Mary Cooper couldn't help but nodded.
…
Two days later, under the pressure of the school, Edward's dealings, and the pleas of so many academic circles, Leonard was finally released by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
And not only was he released without incident, he was also found not guilty of all charges.
Because Leonard stole rocket fuel, everyone just talked about it, but there was not enough physical evidence to support it.
After all, time has passed and the evidence has long since been lost. Oral statements alone are not enough to prove the crime. Even if Leonard admitted it himself, it would not work, so he was released smoothly.
Leonard was released without incident.
Xiang Nan and Howard received the news and immediately drove him back.
"Raj, Howie, thank you! Thank you!" After seeing the two of them, Leonard couldn't help hugging them and crying.
The past few days in prison have been like hell. If Xiang Nan and Howard hadn't been running outside to rescue him, it would have been difficult for him to come out.
Therefore, this "thank you" is truly heartfelt and sincere.
"Okay, okay, don't be sad, just come out and it will be fine." Xiang Nan and Howard comforted him quickly, then took him to the car and went home first, to take a good bath and have a good sleep.
"Raj, Howie, thank you for your help this time, otherwise I would be in trouble." Leonard said with lingering fear.
"We're all friends, so there's no need to say these things." Xiang Nan smiled, "It'll be fine as long as it goes away."
"Well, I heard from Edward that Sheldon hasn't been released yet." Leonard asked again curiously.
"What do you care about what he does? If he hadn't broken the news, you wouldn't have been caught." Howard said coldly after hearing this.
"I know, but I think he didn't do it on purpose." Leonard nodded.
Seeing this, Xiang Nan smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Leonard is such a good-natured person. I would rather feel wronged myself than satisfy others.
It was as if his mother treated him as a test subject and published all the embarrassing things in his life as a book, without caring whether it would cause harm to him. But Leonard still loves her.
"It doesn't matter whether he did it on purpose or not, it has already happened." Howard disagreed with Leonard's statement.
Whether Sheldon broke the news intentionally or accidentally, Leonard was arrested by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
"Okay, as soon as Leonard came out, don't argue with him." Xiang Nan persuaded him, "Sheldon did not come out, but it's not that we didn't try to help him, it's because he was too desperate.
In fact, his crime is less serious than yours. He neither contacted spies nor stole any secrets. He just cracked the security door and broke into the laboratory. It was just a prank at best.
It's just that he doesn't cooperate with the lawyer and has been reluctant to cooperate with the lawyer. In addition, he is usually unsociable, so no one is willing to intercede for him, so he has not been released yet. "
"Then what should we do now?" Leonard asked again with concern.
"There is no other way now. You know how difficult Sheldon's temper is. As long as he doesn't restrain himself, he won't be able to get out." Xiang Nan curled his lips and said.
"That's all his own doing. Just stay in there and take your time." Howard said with disdain.
"I only pity his mother and sister." Xiang Nan sighed.
If Sheldon doesn't come out for a day, Mary Cooper and Missy won't have peace of mind for a day.
Seeing their mother and daughter standing in front of the physics building every day, looking sad and haggard, he couldn't help but feel a little sad.
