Chapter 61 Chemical Castration, Zheng Tian: Doesn't that make me a eunuch?
After the matter involving Zheng Tian and Canada appeared on the internet, it caused an uproar nationwide.
There was no way around it; Zheng Tian's national notoriety was already well-known due to the recent exposures, and now that it involved a foreign country, combined with the push from Zheng Jie, it would be harder than ascending to heaven for netizens not to know about it.
"What do we do now?"
Mrs. Zheng looked at the situation, feeling somewhat uneasy.
In her heart, Zheng Tian had always been the most important person, without exception.
Hearing this, Father Zheng also felt a sense of foreboding, and he looked at Mrs. Zheng.
"My thought is... why don't we contact a lawyer? After all, we don't really understand the situation abroad."
Father Zheng said at this moment.
Although he didn't know if this matter was true or false, he felt it would be good to communicate with a lawyer in advance; if it were true... they could at least make some preparations.
Hearing this, Mrs. Zheng nodded.
It seemed... that was all they could do for now.
"Alright, let's ask a lawyer then."
Mrs. Zheng sighed.
She felt that the last few months had been absolutely dark for the Zheng family, and she didn't even know when this darkness would end.
Soon, Father Zheng contacted a very well-known local lawyer, and the meeting place was set at the Zheng Family Villa.
...
Zheng Group Headquarters.
Zheng Jie sat in the chairman's office, on a video call with a white man.
"Zheng... please rest assured. We have already collected the evidence, and the chain of evidence is quite complete. We expect that in two hours, our embassy will officially release a statement on your online platforms and propose to contact your departments to extradite Zheng Tian."
Hearing this, Zheng Jie nodded.
"Alright, I understand. With your word, I can rest easy."
Zheng Jie said with a smile.
"Hahaha, rest assured. Your business is my business. After all, we are the best of friends, aren't we? If I can help you achieve your plans, I will go all out."
Hearing this, Zheng Jie nodded.
"When there is an opportunity, I will treat you to dinner."
"Hahaha, you are too polite."
After ending the call, Zheng Jie sat in his chair.
Everything was ready now.
He was waiting—waiting for the Zheng family to come.
He didn't believe that the Zheng family could really just watch helplessly as their eldest son, whom they regarded as their life, was sent abroad to undergo chemical castration.
So-called chemical castration involved taking special medication that would make one completely lose their qualifications as a man.
Such a punishment could truly be described as a fate worse than death, especially for someone like Zheng Tian.
Meanwhile, over at the Zheng Family Villa, Father Zheng met the lawyer.
"Lawyer Ma, we would like to ask, if this rumor is true, what kind of impact will it have?"
Father Zheng's voice was trembling.
Hearing this, Lawyer Ma took a deep breath, then raised his head and looked at Father Zheng in front of him.
"Mr. Zheng, if this matter is true, I'm afraid there will be some trouble."
Lawyer Ma said, pushing up his gold-rimmed glasses.
"If this is true, then the eldest young master has broken local laws abroad. According to the information I have, involving such a young child, besides a Prison sentence of over a hundred years, there will also be chemical castration."
The moment he heard "chemical castration," Father Zheng's eyes widened.
"Chemical castration? How could this be? This..."
"Mr. Zheng, I know this is hard to accept, but that is the reality. Canada places special emphasis on this, and their criminal law is quite strict. So... if this matter is truly confirmed, that will be the result."
Lawyer Ma was helpless; after all, the law is the law, and it is set in stone.
He couldn't just lie to appease the Zheng Parents, could he?
If he did, his reputation in this circle would be ruined.
"Lawyer Ma, I would like to ask, is there any room for maneuver?"
Mrs. Zheng asked quickly.
"Currently, there are two ways."
"First, is to directly confirm that this matter is not true, which means tackling it at the source. In that case, there won't be any serious consequences."
"Second, if this matter is true, then I think we have to utilize some other connections. For example... when Canada requests extradition, the relevant higher-up departments can directly refuse. In that way, as long as the eldest young master does not go to Canada, there will naturally be no problem. However, the second method is likely to be quite difficult, as it requires pulling strings at a very high level."
At this point, Lawyer Ma didn't hide anything and laid out both methods.
Hearing these words, Father Zheng took a deep breath.
"Mr. Zheng, is this matter true?"
"As far as I can see, there only seems to be such a rumor right now, and there is no evidence."
"So..."
Lawyer Ma hesitated for a moment and said this.
"Currently, we are not sure... and we have no way to see our son."
Right now, the investigation into Zheng Tian's crime of coercion was not yet finished.
Because it was still under investigation, the Zheng family had no way to see Zheng Tian at this moment.
Hearing this, Lawyer Ma nodded.
"In short, for now, these are the only two methods."
Lawyer Ma repeated what he had just said.
It wasn't that he was unwilling to suggest other things, but these were the only two options available.
Although he was a lawyer and had some connections locally, he couldn't get involved in this situation because it involved two countries.
And when it came down to it, he was just a lawyer.
"Understood. We will handle this matter. Lawyer Ma, if there is anything else, let's keep in touch."
"Alright, alright."
Leaving those words behind, Lawyer Ma departed.
Watching Lawyer Ma's receding figure, the Zheng Parents looked at each other.
"Do you think this matter is true?"
Mrs. Zheng's tone was full of curiosity.
Hearing this, Father Zheng raised his head and rubbed his aching forehead.
Because of Zheng Tian's matter, Father Zheng hadn't been able to rest well for some time, so he was indeed feeling quite uncomfortable.
He hadn't expected that one thing after another would happen in such quick succession, which gave him a massive headache.
"I don't know... I hope not."
"Otherwise... it would really be troublesome."
As the saying goes, the things you don't want to happen are exactly what will happen.
A period of time later, with the release from Canada on their official Jiu Zhou account, the Zheng family's last shred of fantasy was effectively ended.
