Before He Returns Home, One More Conversation Awaits Him
Returning home, however, was not such a simple matter. The police had a lot of questions and, in addition, Olaf Meiden insisted that all those freed from their kidnappers go to hospital and undergo a comprehensive examination, which he would pay for.
This applied to absolutely everyone, which also meant the three girls who had been imprisoned longer than the men.
David wanted very much to go home, but he understood that he had to give testimony. He also understood Olaf Meiden's insistence on hospital. Gustav was battered, and even before that, he had been hit by a stun gun and kicked in the stomach, so his body might have suffered more than it appeared at first glance. He, too, was worried about Gustav and, with a sigh, thought that Meiden, who was defending himself from hospitalization, would be more co-operative if he had his boyfriend around.
