The prison guard asked Leia.
"I'm fine," Leia answered coldly as she wiped the blood from the corner of her lips with her sleeve.
"Get ready. Someone's here to see you."
Leia's numb gaze flickered slightly. Her eyes lit up a little but turned dull very quickly.
She knew that she was entrapped now and no one could save her.
Leia got ready before she went to the visiting room with the prison guard.
"Ren, you're back?"
She saw Renee at a glance, so she ran to the iron door agitatedly.
"Lei, I came back too late. You've suffered a lot."
Renee also rushed to the iron door and looked at Leia, sobbing.
They were only separated by an iron door. However, they could only see each other through the narrow window.
"What's the matter with your eyes? Why are your lips chafed?"
Renee sensitively noticed that Leia's eyes and lips were injured. So, she became anxious and shouted, "Hey, my friend is hurt. Where is the doctor? Get the doctor to come see her!"
"Shush, Ren. Don't worry. I'm fine. It's normal to get bashed up in here. We finally meet. Let's chat a bit."
Leia's hands were handcuffed. She spoke with a tone of urgency as she held the iron railing with her slender fingers.
She knew that the visiting hours were merely thirty minutes. If the doctor came to inspect her, she would not have much time to talk to Renee.
"Lei, stop. Regardless, I won't let anything happen to you. I'll save you even if I have to blow this prison up..."
The women cried profusely from both sides of the iron door. They were overwhelmed with their deep grief. The anguish and pain in their voice would immediately be felt by whoever heard them.
"Ahem, twenty-nine, get ready. You're freed of all charges and are free to go."
Suddenly, the prison guard knocked on the iron door and said to Leia expressionlessly.
"What? Did I hear it right? I can go now?"
Leia's eyes were still full of tears. She could not believe what she had just heard.
It was because she had just learned the news that the person she accidentally pushed over died this morning after they failed to save him. Logically speaking... she would be imprisoned for three to five years. Why was she freed of all charges of the blue?
