Shortly after that, Tyler, Theo, and Chief Royce rushed up to Sara.
"Ms. Sara, we heard that you have clues regarding the child’s whereabouts. Can you tell us more?”
Chief Royce maintained a polite attitude toward a stranger. From his anxious demeanor, it was clear that he took the case seriously.
If I were to ask the question, then I might not be as relaxed as he was.
Even so, Sara did not appreciate it. "Of course, officer. I'm here to provide you with clues.”
She was sobbing as if she had not recovered from her aggrieved feelings. She lifted her hand to touch her right cheek, then lowered her head and pretended to say in a feeble manner, "But I was suddenly attacked by this lady earlier, so my mental state isn't very stable right now. Can you let me get some rest first? Maybe you can investigate her while you’re at it."
Sara looked at me. "She suddenly attacked me for no reason. I want to sue her and demand compensation!"
Chief Royce was suddenly stunned. Tyler hurried forward and said, "Stop messing around, Sara. It’s more important for us to save the child. Can you tell us where your friends went and the location where they saw the children?"
Sara refused to cooperate with the police officer but was pretty satisfied with Tyler's concern for her.
It was not easy for Sara to get so close to him, so naturally, she was not going to let the chance slip. She leaned against Tyler's chest.
"But I really can't recall anything right now. I came here to tell you about it but didn't expect to get slapped so suddenly. My mind is now blank. I don’t even remember what my friends said."
Tyler wrapped his arms around Sara helplessly and patted her shoulder. "It's okay, I’m here. If you can't recall, then give your friends a call and ask them."
