"Honey!" Edie shouted to Katyusha.

"Mom, what."

"You can't speak to a prisoner." Scott said.

She jerked around and faced Scott, who was almost the same height, "Don't play tricks on me, what the hell is going on?"

He looked at her calmly, "We took her to the county detention center for proceedings and a bail hearing. She was arrested and informed of her rights. I am under no obligation to inform you of anything. ”

The camera continues to film what is happening.

Edie? Katyusha shouted: "They say Juan? I killed Miliar!"

"Please remain silent, Mrs. Katyusha."

Katyusha yelled at Scott, "This is what's called a 'case evaluation'? a bunch of shit, isn't it?"

Scott ignored her, very indifferent.

Katyusha's cell phone rang, and she stepped aside to pick it up, "Dad." ”

"Katyusha, as soon as I got home, I found out that the police were here, it was the state police. They searched everywhere. Mrs. Kensington, who was next door to us, said they had moved a few boxes of things. ”

"Dad, Mom was arrested......"

"What?"

"It is to carry out euthanasia for people. The man was Juan. ”

"Oh, Katyusha."

"I took the child to Martini's house and we met in the courtroom in Salinas. She is to be registered by the police and then a bail hearing is held. ”

"Got it, I'm ...... I don't know what to do, baby. His voice was a little choppy.

Hearing that her father, who is usually so steady and self-controlled, now seems so helpless, her heart is like a knife.

"We'll figure it out," she said, trying to make her dad sound confident, but in fact he was just as nervous as he was, "I'll call you again, Daddy." They hung up the phone.

"Mom," she shouted through the car window, looking down at her mother's solemn expression, "it's going to be fine." I'll see you in court. ”

The prosecutor said solemnly: "Inspector Katyusha, I don't want to remind you again. Do not speak to the prisoner. ”

She ignored Scott, "Don't talk to anyone. She reminded her mother.

"I hope we don't create security issues here." The prosecutor said bluntly.

Katyusha glared back at him, silently confronting, whether he was threatening or whatever. She looked over to the State Highway Patrol Officers, one of whom had worked with her. He avoided looking at her. In this operation, everyone was following Scott's command.

She turned and walked towards her police car, but then turned back to the female staff member at the children's center.

Katyusha stood in front of her, "Both children have cell phones. My number is the shortcut key 2,911 and it is after it. I'm sure they've told you I'm a law enforcement cop. Why the fuck didn't you call me?"

The woman blinked and stepped back, "You can't talk to me like that. ”

"Why the fuck didn't you call me?"

"I'm executing the program."

"The procedure is that the interests of the child come first. In this case, you will need to contact your parent or guardian. ”

"But I'll do what I'm told to do."

"How long have you been doing this job?"

"It's none of your business."

"Well, I'll tell you, Miss. There are two answers: either too short or too long. ”

"You can't."

But Katyusha didn't do anything, but got into the car.

"Mom," Maggie asked, sobbing sadly, "will anything happen to Grandma?"

Katyusha does not hide in front of children; As a parent, she understands that in the end, she must face pain and fear, not deny or avoid it. But she still tried not to show fear in her voice, "Your grandmother is going to see the judge, and I think she will come home soon." We'll know what's going on then. We don't know yet. ”

She's going to take her two kids to her best friend Martini's house. She runs a music website with this friend. "I don't like that guy." Weiss said.

"Who?"

"Mr. Scott."

"I don't like him either." Katyusha said.

"I want to go to court with you." Maggie said.

"No, Maggie, I don't know how long I'll have to wait to get there."

Katyusha looked back and smiled comfortingly at the children.

Seeing their listless, pitiful faces, she was even more angry with Scott.

Katyusha plugged in her phone's hands-free microphone, thought about it, and called the best lawyer she could think of. George once spent four hours overturning Katyusha's testimony standing on the witness stand. He almost successfully defended a not-guilty verdict against a mob leader in Salinas, who was in fact full of evil. In the end, the good guy won, and the scoundrel was sentenced to life in prison. After the trial, Hiti walked up to Katyusha and shook her hand, praising her for her solid testimony. She also told him that she was impressed with his defense.

As her call was transferred to Hitty, she noticed that the photojournalists continued to film the explosive scenes, focusing on the car her mother was sitting in, as if a group of rebels were firing rocket launchers at bombed troops.

It's quiet now. After the backyard intruder is revealed not to be the so-called terrifying snowman, Kelly focuses on her hair.

This teenage girl carries a hairpin with her at all times.

Her hair is the most annoying thing in the world, and it curls up at the slightest bit of humidity, which annoys her so much.

In 40 minutes, she was going to see Juenita and Toni on Alvarado Street. They were best friends, and if she was more than 10 minutes late, they would disown her. She lost track of time by writing a post on Brittany's town hall bulletin board on the "Our World" website, and this post was about Tammy? Foster's.

Kelly looked up in the mirror and noticed that the humid air had curled a few strands of hair into a strange shape. She went offline as a result, dealing with a mess of black hair.

Someone had posted on a local blog - anonymously, of course: Morgan, what kind of hair is she? Make yourself look like a mushroom. I don't like girls shaving their heads, and she should go for a shave. It's funny! Alas, why can't she understand it?

Seeing these angry words, Kelly cried and collapsed. The words stabbed her like a blade.
