V1.Chapter 1462 (1/2)
These two days, others are saying the same thing to grandma. They don't believe that the body is Xu Zhongyi.
Grandma Yu trusts Xia Xiaolan very much.
She can't care whether Xia Xiaolan comforts her now. If someone can find out the truth for her and find out the whereabouts of her son's family, that person must be Xia Xiaolan!
Xia Xiaolan and Zhou Cheng didn't have much time to meet one day in advance. There were too many procedures to run for the re autopsy, and everyone was running about for it.
On the 12th, Zhou Cheng went to Detroit. Xia Xiaolan personally sent him to the airport.
Then there was the fast-paced rush. The Chinese old lady sought relatives in a foreign country after 20 years. Whether she loved her son or not. This matter also received the help of the Chinese Embassy in the United States. With the official intervention and the help of Wen Manny, she finally obtained the autopsy permit on the 15th!
The 19-year-old case, which was to be reopened for autopsy, somehow alerted the local radio station in San Francisco. They wanted to interview grandma Yu.
”No interview.”
If the body is Xu Zhongyi, as Jim said, it was done by the local gangs. Grandma Yu also wants to protect her daughter-in-law Cui Yiru and grandson Xu Changle who still don't know where they are.
Xia Xiaolan held her: ”let's not refuse completely. The reports of San Francisco TV are not all bad things. Wait until the autopsy results come out to decide whether to accept the interview, okay?”
Not Xu Zhongyi. That's the best.
Just borrow the TV station to find Xu Zhongyi's whereabouts.
Originally, Xia Xiaolan also planned to ”make up stories” on TV and newspapers. She said that it was not good for her grandmother to accept an interview.
Grandma Yu nodded:
”OK, just do as you say!”
Approved on the 15th, the coffin was opened on the 16th. Grandma Yu insisted on going to the cemetery with the police.
For too long, the charred skin was tight on the bone. Xia Xiaolan felt palpitation after only one look. Liu Fen didn't dare to look at it at all. Her mother and daughter helped grandma Yu from left to right, for fear that she couldn't bear it.
Grandma Yu watched with her own eyes as the bones were dug out and transported away by the police.
Her feet are soft and uncomfortable, but she can't fall down and has to tell herself repeatedly:
”It's not Zhongyi, it can't be Zhongyi -”
An old lady, standing beside the newly excavated grave, with her white hair thrown by the wind, had to be supported by two people to avoid falling. Anyone would be sad to see such a scene.
Winmanny's heart was also very uncomfortable.
American lawyers charge by the hour. Wen Manni has been running for so many days, but it is pure legal aid. Xia Xiaolan said she wanted to pay, but she was rejected by Wen Manni!
This is what Professor Wen and Hu Ying mean. They both sympathize with Grandma's experience.
Xu Zhongyi's experience touched Professor Wen and Hu Ying. They also immigrated to the United States decades ago, but their luck is better than Xu Zhongyi. They have a firm foothold in the United States and now live a good life.
Xu Zhongyi is the unlucky one. When a family of three arrived in the United States, there was no trace.
”Although we emigrate, we are still Chinese with yellow skin and black eyes. This is our characteristic and a proof of recognition in a foreign land. If our compatriots encounter such difficulties, you should help. Manny, it's called ”watch and help each other!”
That's what Professor Wen told winmani.
Help each other?
Wen Manni looked at Xia Xiaolan's mother and daughter standing with grandma Yu. It was hard to believe that they had no blood relationship with grandma Yu.
This free legal aid case made winmani feel heavy.
