The police admitted, "Ms. Gu, although you are the victim of this case, George's foster parents are not people you can meet whenever you wish. Their consent is also necessary. Even if they are suspects, they have the right to choose whether to see you or not."
Gu Xinzhou remained silent, then added, "Then I'll go to the police station first and talk about it."
"It's quite late now, considering your safety, we can make a house visit."
"It's okay, I want to go to the police station!"
"Alright..."
After ending the call with Gu Xinzhou, Zhang Wei made a direct call to Song Zhen.
Zhang Wei said, "Mr. Song, Ms. Gu is coming to the police station soon to give testimony. Would you like to come along?"
Song Zhen asked displeasedly, "Didn't I say that I would tell her tomorrow and take her with me? Why can't you respect the wishes of the parties involved? Why do you have to disturb her like this?"
Song Zhen was truly distressed.
The girl had not been resting well, and she still said she would bring over some millet porridge early in the morning, which meant she had to get up early too.
These police officers, why couldn't they just let his precious treasure have a good night's sleep?
Zhang Wei was somewhat helpless, "Mr. Song, there's a situation I must tell you about right now."
Song Zhen: "What is it?"
Zhang Wei: "Zorn has sought help from the embassy, and his family has hired a foreign-related lawyer who is applying for extradition back to their country. The case originally took place in Italy, and the main people involved are in Italy. Although the matter has come to light in China, the possibility of the authorities agreeing to extradition is still quite high. Once the extradition is successful, Chinese laws will no longer be able to severely punish them, and they will also receive the protection and punishment of Italian law. However, this punishment will definitely be much lighter than it would be in China."
Song Zhen, after listening, veins bulging on his forehead, burst out, "I'm coming right away!"
Gu Xinzhou took the RV to the police station.
When she arrived at the police station's parking lot, she saw Song Zhen's car already parked there early on.
As soon as she got out of the car, Song Zhen was already striding toward her, silently embracing her in his arms.
He kissed her hair, gently saying, "Don't be afraid!"
Gu Xinzhou hadn't expected him to come.
Even though she had been feeling strong, she suddenly felt warmth and protection from him, and her eyes promptly heated up.
If she had been naive to the world five years ago, finding everything frightening and terrible, now as a mother she stood firm. She was back with her family; she had parents, sons, and a grandmother, and she had Song Zhen.
What was there to fear?
She feared nothing!
She also held onto Song Zhen tightly, looking up at him, "With you, I am not afraid!"
Her unpowdered face, under the brilliant starry sky, appeared pure and dazzling.
Her eyes, like clear crystal balls, reflected Song Zhen's face.
Song Zhen chuckled, holding Gu Xinzhou's hand, introducing the man beside him, "This is Lawyer Gao. I had him start preparing for this case a few days ago."
Gu Xinzhou then noticed a man in his mid-thirties, wearing a blue trench coat, standing behind Song Zhen.
She quickly moved away from Song Zhen a bit and extended her hand politely, "Lawyer Gao, I'm Gu Xinzhou. Thank you for your trouble this late."
"Madam is too polite, this is all part of my job," Gao Ming replied courteously, reaching out to shake Gu Xinzhou's hand, but Song Zhen suddenly intercepted Gu Xinzhou's hand, pulling her forward, "Alright, now that we know each other, let's go inside!"
