Chapter 193 I Need A Lawyer
“Ladies, it’s a routine examination. Please cooperate!” The leading policewoman warned everyone solemnly.
These people came in all of a sudden, but fortunately, they were all women. Andy and Vivian had been abroad for many years, so they didn’t deliberately cover it. They just grabbed the bath towel and simply wrapped themselves up.
“Now, everyone leave your cabinets and stand outside in a straight line!”
One of the policewomen came forward to maintain order and took all of them to the passage opposite the door. The other policewomen entered the dressing room and searched one cabinet after another.
Everything went well at first, but a few minutes later, the policewoman next to Andy’s cabinet suddenly looked at their leader and said, “Madam, this way please.”
With a straight face, the leader lifted her foot and walked over seriously. The baton behind her shook slightly with her steps, as if showing off its “great achievements”.
She couldn’t help but stand in the corner to protect Vivian.
After a while, the female leader took two women’s shoulder bags and asked the crowd with a serious expression, “whose cabinets 45 and 47 are they?”
It was not until Andy caught a glimpse of the bag in the female leader’s hand that she realized that the two cabinets belonged to her and Vivian.
Vivian also realized that something was wrong and held her hand tightly.
“I ask you again. Who are using these two cabinets?” The female leader’s voice became more and more fierce.
“It’s ours.”
In order not to make people feel they are guilty, Andy took the initiative to stand out with Vivian.
“Fine,” the woman nodded. “You have to go with us.”
“Why?” “I mean, at least we should know the reason why we were arrested.”
“Sure,” the female leader said arrogantly, raising the two bags in her hands. “This is the reason. There are prohibited articles hidden in it. It’s your obligation to cooperate with the investigation.”
Prohibited articles?
What’s more, these three words meant a lot. If the crime was confirmed, they could be directly sentenced to jail according to any national order.
It was also the police’s right to arrest suspects and investigate.
Finally, Andy and Vivian decided to cooperate. After changing their clothes, they went back to the police station with them.This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Two hours later, in the interrogation room, Andy and Vivian were interrogated separately.
It was a policeman who was in charge of interrogation. Judging from his contemptuous eyes towards the police, she concluded that this man had serious racial discrimination and was not easy to get along with.
“Andy?” The policeman looked through the record board impatiently.
“It’s me.” Andy nodded. Humans always subconsciously revered people in uniforms.
“We found one hundred grams of MARC and the injection equipment in the cabinet of you and Miss Vivian. Next, we will record our conversation. I hope you can answer all my questions frankly. Don’t waste our time.” The policeman made a official introduction.
Andy frowned slightly and sensed the seriousness of the matter.
Australia was particularly strict with the control of poisons. Without permission, anyone who carried ICE more than ten grams would be sentenced, and the main ingredient of ICE was MARC.
It was enough for them to face the highest sentence.
“I need a lawyer.” She made an appeal without hesitation.
Although ICE had a little paralyzing effect and could make people’s nerves relax for a short time, it followed with a bigger void, like a ghost, attracting people to step into the abyss.
She would never touch that, and she was confident in Vivian.
There was no doubt that they were framed.
In that case, before the lawyers came, any complaint they made might be unfavorable to the court in the future, and they must be accompanied by professional lawyers.
“Okay,” the male policeman agreed. He closed the record board and said coldly, “but before that, you have to have a blood test and stay here for forty-eight hours before you can be bailed out. Understand?”
“No,” Andy didn’t want to accept it. “I promise that it has nothing to do with me. I don’t know why it is in my cabinet. I have to go back tonight. I have to take care of my children.”
“I’ve heard such excuses for hundreds of times, and every one of them is sincere. When the evidence is irrefutable in the court, you still cry that you are innocent… Anyway, stay here and wait for the investigation results. As for other things, I’m not interested in knowing!”
The policemen from all over the world were rude to the drug addicts, let alone a fair skinned man who thought himself superior. The male policeman had always been unfriendly to Andy.
Soon, a policeman came to collect blood samples for her.
But after he left, he didn’t give her any communication tools to contact the outside world.
“Hey, sir,” called the male policeman who was about to leave her alone, “maybe you have forgotten something, such as my mobile phone.”
The policeman lowered his head impatiently. “It’s not settled yet. Why are you in a hurry? Lawyer fees are not cheap these days.”
“Thank you for your consideration, sir. Since it’s not settled yet, it’s my legal right to contact the outside world and find a lawyer.”
On the surface, Andy looked like a gentle and weak woman, but when she became serious, she would inexplicably give people a sense of oppression.
She deliberately raised the corners of her mouth with a fake smile, neither humble nor pushy, and said, “or do you want me to act like a shrew and make the whole police station restless?”
The enemy was in the dark, and she was in the light. She couldn’t sit still and wait for death.
The policeman took a look at her for a while and then walked out of the room. He bring Andy’s Phone, threw it on the table and said crossly, “ten minutes is enough for you to hire a lawyer.”
“Thank you.”
After expressing her thanks unhurriedly, she picked up her phone and called Peter directly according to the missed calls.
Fortunately, Peter answered the phone immediately.
“Hello, Annie? Why haven’t you come back yet?”
According to the original plan, she and Vivian should have arrived home at this time.
“It’s too late to explain.” Worried that the policeman might cut the time, she tried her best to pick up the most important thing and said, “I’m now at the Sydney police station. I might be accused of hiding poison. You bring a lawyer to pick me up tomorrow.”
“What happened?” “How could it be possible? Is it Vivian?” asked Peter in a low voice, avoiding Jane and the children.
“No, we didn’t.” “Anyway, remember to find a lawyer for me. Besides, don’t tell Jane and the children.”
“I know.” “I think I’d better go there right now and bail you out.”
“No. I won’t be released on bail until forty-eight hours later. With a lawyer around, I will have more confidence in my interrogation later.” Andy sighed.
“Well, it’s time.”
As expected, the policeman made her trouble. He grabbed the phone and ruthlessly hung up in front of Andy.
