Just as she was thinking happily, the Chinese female prison guard from before hurriedly ran to her dining table and said with joy: "Sister Lan, Sister Lan! There is good news, Sister Lan!"
Seeing the excitement on her face, Ma Lan's heart suddenly thumped, and she couldn't help but blurt out, "What's the good news? It makes you so excited."
The female prison guard hurriedly explained: "Sister Lan, your lawyer is here!"
"My lawyer?!" Ma Lan's expression suddenly froze, and she exclaimed: "Is it that James White? What is he doing here?!"
The female prison guard said excitedly: "He came to meet you. He said he had great news to convey to you in person."
Ma Lan was stunned for a moment, frowned and said, "Could it be that...did he clear my suspicion?!"
The female prison guard said without thinking: "It should be, otherwise how could it be such great news?! Sister Lan, congratulations to you, you will be cleared of suspicion and free soon!"
Ma Lan's expression was a bit depressed, and she thought to herself: "But I don't want to regain my freedom now... If I regain my freedom now, how can I still pretend to be a ghost in Bedford Hill?"
worry?"
Seeing that Ma Lan was a little distracted, the female prison guard couldn't help but remind her: "Sister Lan, the lawyer is waiting in the interview room now. Do you want to go there first?"
After saying that, she hurriedly said: "Sister Lan, why don't you eat first? It's the same as going over after eating. Just let the lawyer wait in the interview room for a while."
Ma Lan always felt a little uneasy in her heart. What was going on, she had to meet James White first to know.
So, she stood up and said, "Take me to see him first, otherwise I really won't be able to eat this meal!"
With that said, Ma Lan followed the female prison guard to the interview room of the correctional facility.
At this time, New York's most famous criminal lawyer James White was already waiting here.
Seeing Ma Lan come in, he immediately stood up and said in Chinese with great respect: "Hello, Ms. Ma, we meet again."
Ma Lan nodded absently, and then asked him: "What did you come to see me for?"
James White smiled and said: "Ms. Ma, I came here to tell you good news. The woman who handed the contraband to you at the airport has finally been brought to justice!"
"What?!" Ma Lan blurted out and asked, "Are you talking about Zong Qiuhua?"
James White explained: "The woman's real name is not Zong Qiuhua, her name is..."
Ma Lan waved her hand impatiently, interrupted him, and said, "I don't care what her name is, I just want to know what the current status of this matter is."
James White thought that Ma Lan couldn't wait to get out, so he said excitedly: "According to feedback from my informants in the New York Police Department, the woman has confessed to the police what she did. The police can now basically tell her what she did.
It is confirmed that you are innocent. However, the police still need to go through some more legal procedures. After the procedures are completed, they will issue a certificate proving that you really know nothing about all this, and then issue a document to Bedford.
Tokuyama Correctional Institution, then you will be free."
When Ma Lan heard this, he quickly asked: "Then when will they let me out?"
James White looked at the time and replied: "I'm afraid it's a bit difficult today, but it will definitely be fine tomorrow!"
"Ah?!" Ma Lan blurted out with a disappointed look on her face: "Then what...can't we let them wait for a few more days?"
