Tao Yu looked at him puzzled, not knowing what solution he could devise. Just when she had no expectations, Zhou Ying quickly returned, nervously throwing a phone to her: “Hurry up. I’m waiting to return this phone.”
“Whose did you steal?” Tao Yu didn’t dare delay, dialing the prison number while asking.
Zhou Ying smiled, with a hint of bitterness: “It’s not stolen. A police officer outside gave it to me.”
“The girl watching us? Why would she help you?” Tao Yu looked at him.
Zhou Ying paused for a while, coughing: “My ex-girlfriend… is her sister. Maybe out of guilt.”
Tao Yu’s mouth twitched, giving him a sympathetic look. Then the call connected, and she immediately focused: “Hello?”
“Hello, this is the island prison.” Lao Chang’s voice came through.
Hearing a familiar voice, Tao Yu breathed a sigh of relief and urgently asked: “Lao Chang, it’s me, Tao Yu. I want to ask if Yue Linze has been released from solitary confinement?”
“Tao Yu?! How are you guys over there? Many people have come to investigate recently. What’s going on?” Lao Chang’s voice grew louder.
Tao Yu frowned: “I’m very anxious now. Have you released Yue Linze?”
“Don’t worry about Yue Linze first. Did they detain you for questioning? Don’t say anything. I’m finding people to get you out. If you and Zhou Ying talk nonsense, don’t blame me for not helping you.” Lao Chang threatened.
Tao Yu’s anger rose: “Where is Yue Linze?!”
Lao Chang was startled by her angry tone and reluctantly replied after a while: “He’s been appealing these past few days. He left the prison today…”
Tao Yu’s ears rang, and she couldn’t hear what he said afterward. When she came to her senses, Zhou Ying had already taken the phone and returned it to the police officer.
When Zhou Ying returned, she grabbed his sleeve and asked: “Do prison appeals usually happen this quickly? How did Yue Linze get out of prison in just a few days?
