"Sheldon's sister is really beautiful, she has absolutely no genetic makeup with him." After Missy left, Howard raised his eyebrows and said.

"Okay, aren't you dating that Kelly now? Why are you thinking about Sheldon's sister now?" Xiang Nan said speechlessly after hearing this.

"Kelly and I were just messing around. No one was serious." Howard heard this and said, "I'm not a fool. I know she followed me because of my money. I won't treat a woman like this

Be fooled.

If I want to marry a wife in the future, I must marry someone who really loves me, doesn’t care if I have money, doesn’t care if I’m not tall, handsome, or strong, who can appreciate my talent, my humor, and who can play with me.

People who are together.”

"Howie, what you said really impressed me." After hearing this, Xiang Nan couldn't help but admire.

Seeing how horny Howard was usually, he thought that because he didn't know the situation correctly, he would be deceived by some women-hunting men. Unexpectedly, he was quite sober, so he couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

At this time, Howard's cell phone rang. It turned out that Edward had already taken a plane to Los Angeles.

Xiang Nan immediately drove to the airport with him and picked up Edward.

"Okay, tell me what happened in detail." Edward said immediately.

Howard nodded and recounted the cause and effect.

"How is it, cousin, is this case difficult?" After finishing speaking, he asked with concern.

"This type of case is always very difficult because it is difficult to find out whether the secret was leaked or not. Leonard cannot testify for himself, and Joyce King cannot testify for him," Edward explained.

"And he did take rocket fuel from the laboratory in violation of regulations. This alone is very difficult to deal with."

"Oh my God!" Howard couldn't help crying after hearing this.

Xiang Nan also frowned.

To be honest, it is not uncommon for researchers like them to occasionally smuggle their inventions out of the laboratory.

Howard brought out a robotic arm and a space toilet from the laboratory. He also privately deployed a military unmanned reconnaissance drone and took a girl to the laboratory to drive a Mars rover...

Leonard just wanted to please Joyce King at that time, so he smuggled out the rocket fuel. The violation was indeed a violation, but it should be completely different in nature from leaking state secrets.

It's a pity that the Ministry of National Defense may not see it that way.

"Okay, don't worry, this matter is big or small. To put it more seriously, he is stealing state secrets and leaking state secrets. A sentence of seven to eight years in prison is not an exaggeration.

To put it mildly, he just violated the rules of the laboratory, so just give him a small punishment." Edward advised.

"Yes, yes, he just violated the rules of the laboratory. It is definitely not stealing national secrets." Howard immediately agreed.

"Then how can we reduce big things to small things?" Xiang Nan asked for advice.

Edward glanced at Xiang Nan appreciatively, and he caught the key points in one sentence.

"Actually, what you did before was good. The school interceding for him should put some pressure on the Ministry of Education." Edward nodded, "After all, Caltech is one of the best universities in the United States. In government,

The business, military, and academic circles all have extensive connections and powerful forces, so the Ministry of National Defense should give them some face.

In addition, you can also help Leonard contact the school's faculty and staff, academic leaders, etc., and ask them to help write some letters of apology, which will also be very beneficial to Leonard."

"Okay, let's do it like this." Upon hearing this, Xiang Nan nodded immediately.

…

After returning to school, Edward went to the principal as Leonard's lawyer.

Xiang Nan and Howard began to contact everyone and asked people to help write a letter of apology for Leonard.

Because Leonard has a gentle personality and is kind to others, he has accumulated good popularity. In addition, Xiang Nan, Howard and others came forward to help him, so many people at Caltech wrote letters of mercy for him, totaling more than 200 letters.

So much.

Xiang Nan also used his reputation in the academic world to invite some big names in the academic world to intercede for Leonard. Among them were Nobel Prize and Turing Award winners, all of whom were heavyweights.

"There are almost two hundred and fifty seals, that should be enough, right?" Howard counted them and said.

"It should be almost done." Xiang Nan nodded.

When ordinary people are on trial, it is good to have at most three or four letters of apology. Two hundred and fifty letters are dozens of times more than theirs, and the letter writers are many top bosses, so they should be quite influential.

It's just that the number two hundred and five doesn't sound good. But this can be regarded as a lesson to Leonard, who made him do two wrong things. One is to pick up girls without thinking, and the other is to make friends without eyes.

"Raj, please help Sheldon to ask for a love letter." At this time, Peggy began to persuade.

"Why should I help him solicit letters of love?" Xiang Nan asked puzzledly upon hearing this, "I have been friends with him for two years. Ask Howard, have I received any favors from him?"

"No." Howard shook his head firmly.

Sheldon doesn't even care about the exchange of favors. He won't even give gifts to his friends on their birthdays, let alone take care of them in daily life.

Coupled with his sharp tongue and arrogance, they were often squeezed by him. If it weren't for Leonard, they would have fallen out with Sheldon long ago.

What's more, Sheldon is bound to retaliate. If he hadn't been clever and took precautionary measures this time, all research data, prototypes, etc. might have been destroyed.

By then, even if they can redo the research and rebuild the prototype, the losses will be considerable.

"Sheldon didn't do us any favors. He even wanted to take revenge on us. Now you ask us to intercede for him?" Xiang Nan frowned and asked, "What are you thinking?"

"I admit that Sheldon was at fault. But you also know that he broke into the laboratory not to steal national secrets, but just to cause some damage.

Moreover, he was caught before he could carry out the crime and no harm was caused. If he was sentenced to ten or eight years in prison, do you think this is really fair?

Although he has done some wrong things before, you should know in your heart that he is not a bad person. Moreover, he has been your friend for two years. During these two years, you cannot have troubles every day, and you will always have fun.

It's time.

Just remember those good memories and help him." Peggy thought for a while and then advised.

Hearing what she said, Xiang Nan pursed his lips and fell into deep thought.

He admitted that what Peggy said did make some sense. According to what Sheldon did, he really shouldn't be sentenced to ten or eight years in prison.

However, the nature of this incident was very bad. The reason why it did not cause any damage was mainly because he took good precautions. Otherwise, he would have suffered huge losses now.
