After nearly two hours of answering questions, Fang Ya and Shao Xiang walked out of the interrogation room.
"Um, officer, can I see my son?" Shao Xiang begged one of the officers.
The officer looked at Shao Xiang somewhat sheepishly, then turned to another person for help.
The other officer glanced at Shao Xiang and Fang Ya, then said, "Not yet."
Shao Xiang put down her hands in disappointment.
Fang Ya held Shao Xiang gently, afraid that she would fall to the ground.
The two of them rested for a while in the police station before Fang Ya called Uncle Chen.
Uncle Chen quickly picked them up.
It was almost 10 o'clock at night when they got home.
Fang Ya was afraid that Shao Xiang was worried and would not be able to sleep, so she did not go to pick up the two children. Instead, she accompanied Shao Xiang to sit in her room for a while.
