Chapter 421: You have today too!

Zhang Guifen's words immediately stirred up the anger of the people around her. These people were suddenly filled with righteous indignation!

Although everyone was a prisoner, those locked in the detention center generally didn't commit major crimes and weren't heinous people, so they instinctively had a psychology of sympathizing with the weak.

Hearing Old Mrs. Xiao's words, and seeing that Old Mrs. Xiao already had white hair, they couldn't help but believe her words.

So, everyone suddenly condemned them indignantly.

"Abandoning such an old mother, this is simply a family of animals."

"Who says it isn't? Living in a 100 million villa but refusing to give even one bedroom to the old lady, how can there be such disgusting people."

"Old lady, don't worry, such a daughter-in-law will be struck by lightning sooner or later!"

Old Mrs. Xiao was in tears, "Thank you, thank you for your concern and support. This old woman really didn't expect to meet so many good people here!"

Zhang Guifen sighed, "Old lady, to tell you the truth, seeing you reminds me of my mother who died from drinking medicine. It's not easy for the elderly! It's even harder to meet an unfilial daughter-in-law!"

Old Mrs. Xiao nodded repeatedly, crying and saying, "Sigh, I'm detained for fifteen days. I don't know what to do after fifteen days. No place to eat, no place to live. A few months later, I might even be sued by the court."

Zhang Guifen hurriedly said, "Old lady, then you might as well stay in the detention center. We have three meals a day on time, food and housing included. Isn't that better than wandering the streets outside?"

When Old Mrs. Xiao heard her say this, she felt a sense of despair in her heart.

Could it be that she would really be reduced to sponging off the detention center in the future?

Thinking of this, Old Mrs. Xiao screamed wildly in her heart: "No! No matter what, I am the head of the Xiao family. If I am reduced to spending my old age in prison, wouldn't all the face I worked so hard to earn in my life be lost before I die?!"

Must find a chance to turn things around!

At this very moment, a police car stopped at the entrance of the detention center.

Two officers escorted a disheveled woman into the detention center.

This woman was Ma Lan.

Ma Lan was escorted by the officers, looking dejected, with cold handcuffs on her hands.

Along the way, she had cried her eyes dry and her throat hoarse. She never dreamed that she had stolen Ye Chen's bank card, only to become a prisoner in the blink of an eye.

Listening to the officers, she was now facing indefinite detention until the entire transnational criminal chain was investigated and the other suspects were arrested, before it would be submitted to the procuratorial organ to initiate a public prosecution.

After the public prosecution was initiated, the court would hold a trial, and how many years she would be sentenced would depend on how big the whole case was dug out to be.

Ma Lan asked in a panic how long she would be sentenced if this charge was established.

The officer told her that attempted fraud of 21. billion RMB from a bank could be said to be the biggest fraud case in decades. Even if it was attempted, its nature was extremely bad, so it was highly likely to be life imprisonment.

If accomplices were caught and more criminal evidence was dug out, it was even possible to be shot.

Ma Lan was so scared she almost lost control of her bladder. She hated Ye Chen to death in her heart and really wanted to call her daughter Xiao Churan immediately, and then let her divorce that big swindler Ye Chen immediately.

However, the officer said that she was suspected of a major case, and before the case was tried, she could not meet or contact her family, and she could not even hire a lawyer for the time being.

Ma Lan had monstrous hatred in her heart, but she had nowhere to vent it.

After entering the high walls of the detention center, the officer immediately took Ma Lan to handle the detention procedures.

The procedures were very complicated. Not only did she have to take photos and verify her identity, but she also had to take off all her clothes and hand them over to the detention center, then change into the prison uniform and unified daily necessities provided by the detention center.

Ma Lan changed into the prison uniform, and the two officers who sent her over had already left. From now on, everything about her was managed by the detention center.

A female prison guard took her into the prison area. While walking, she introduced her according to the convention, "This is a cell for twenty people. Get up at six o'clock every morning, lights out at ten o'clock in the evening. Three meals a day are all eaten in your own cell."

After saying this, she glanced at Ma Lan and said expressionlessly, "However, the meals are rationed. Your physique may not be able to be completely full. If you still need any food or daily necessities, you can let your family charge some money under your name, and then you can buy things at the small shop inside."

"That's great!" Ma Lan hurriedly asked, "How can I contact my family?!"

The female prison guard only then remembered what the officer had told her when he sent Ma Lan over, so she said with a cold face, "Almost forgot, you belong to a major criminal suspect and cannot contact the outside world for the time being, so if you are not full, just treat it as dieting!"

When Ma Lan heard this, she felt a sense of despair in her heart again.

She suddenly thought that Old Mrs. Xiao and Xiao Weiwei seemed to have been locked in the detention center too. Would she run into them?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a bit nervous.

But soon this nervousness vanished.

It didn't matter if she ran into Old Mrs. Xiao and Xiao Weiwei. Old Mrs. Xiao was just an old woman. If she dared to be arrogant with her, she could kick half her life away with one kick!

As for Xiao Weiwei, although this little girl was young, she was just a little girl who didn't do any work. That physique couldn't even hold up for two rounds at the mahjong table. If she really wanted to fight with her, it would just be a matter of two slaps.

At this time, the prison guard pointed to a cell not far ahead and said, "Ma Lan, that is Cell 025, you will be here from now on!"

Ma Lan nodded hurriedly.

At the same time, in Cell 025, Old Mrs. Xiao had just calmed down a little under the comfort of everyone.

She really didn't expect that the cellmates in the cell would sympathize with her so much. Everyone gathered around and comforted her one by one, which really made her feel much more at ease.

Xiao Weiwei's mood was also much better than when she first entered the detention center.

She previously thought that the detention center must be like in the movies, full of bullies who bullied people, and newcomers would be bullied and humiliated, and couldn't even eat, but she didn't expect it to be so warm inside.

Just at this moment, someone looked at the door and shouted, "A newcomer is here again!"

Outside the iron door, the female prison guard opened the cell where Old Mrs. Xiao was, pushed Ma Lan, pushed Ma Lan into the cell, and said, "Go in and reflect on yourself!"

Ma Lan was just pushed in, and the iron door was closed again.

She looked at the other prisoners in the cell nervously and found that they were all gathered around a lower bunk. She was a bit surprised and thought to herself: "What are these old women gathered in a circle for? Listening to a story?"

At this time, Old Mrs. Xiao, who was surrounded by the crowd, recognized Ma Lan at a glance. She was shocked and trembled all over, and then roared with her eyes splitting, "Ma Lan! You shrew, you have today too!"
