After she made up her mind, Sherman hurried to the airport. Fortunately, there was not too much traffic on the road. And she got on the plane in time.
Actually, what she had guessed was correct.
Kingsley's parents came to meet her because Luke had called them to blame Kingsley.
He asked Kingsley to return to Lanechett before noon. However, he waited until twelve o'clock. Still, Kingsley did not show up. Finally, he lost his patience.
Sherman took a nap on the plane. Actually, she felt good about Kingsley's parents.
It was four hours later when she arrived in Lanechett. I t was getting dark, and the night fell. The city was lightened on. The city looked incredibly luxurious and beautiful at night.
It was her first time to Lanechett. She felt incredibly fascinated. She looked around, and out of the corner o f her eye, she caught a glimpse of a business magazine. Kingsley's photo was on the cover.
She was stunned for a moment. Seeing his photo on the cover, she felt him so strange.
She was still lost in thought when suddenly, she felt a pain in her shoulder. The pain was so intense that it
felt like her arm was going to be ripped off. Instinctively, she let go of her hand.
A punk blew a loud whistle. Riding on a motorcycle, they whizzed past her and ripped her bag away.
Immediately, Sherman realized she had been robbed. But how could she catch up with the motorcycle? So she called out, "Help! Someone's grabbing my bag! Someone's robbing me! Help!"
At that moment, a police car happened to pass by her. Hearing the shouting, the policeman stopped the car right away. An officer got out of the car. He had a tall figure. He looked handsome and solemn.
"I am a policeman." The man said, "Go to the police station with me first. I will inform you once we have any information."
Sherman was relieved to hear that the man was a policeman. She looked at the man for a few seconds, and she felt the man had some resemblance to Kingsley.
When they arrived at the police station, the officer let her make a statement first. Sherman described the punks' appearance and what clothes they wore.
