Lauren shook her head and forced a smile.
“I am fine. Did you save the children?”
Franklin nodded. “Don’t worry. They were rescued without a hitch.”
Lauren thought that this was probably the bad news that Irene wanted to tell the rest.
Before they came, Franklin had already explained the specific situation to the police officers, so the police officers did not ask any more questions. After handcuffing the three people, they brought them to the police station.
Franklin, Quinn and Lauren were also going to the police station to make a statement.
As the seats inside the police cars were insufficient for everyone and Franklin was also very familiar with the police, they allowed Franklin and his siblings to get to the police station themselves.
Lauren and Quinn sat in the back row, while Franklin sat in the passenger seat together with Ben the driver.
When Ben saw Lauren, although he had a lot of questions to ask, he kept them to himself for the time being.
Ben followed the police car in front.
Franklin took out a lunch box from nowhere and handed it to Lauren.
Lauren took the lunch box. It was still warm.
“You must have been hungry for the past two days, right?”
Lauren pursed her lips. Compared to when she was in the room just now, she was not as determined and tenacious now. Now, she had become a child again.
“I’m not just hungry. I’m starving. I feel like I’ve lost a few pounds.”
Lauren’s words made the other three people in the car laugh.
They were relieved to see that Lauren was still the same as before.
Lauren opened the lunchbox. Inside were two large chicken legs with a fragrant aroma.
Lauren wiped her hands with a wet towel and picked up a chicken leg. Then, she handed the other chicken leg to Quinn.
“What? You’re actually giving me the chicken leg?” Quinn asked in disbelief, not daring to accept it.
“Didn’t I promise you before? Now that you’ve helped me complete my mission, you’ll be my partner in the future! Of course, you’ll get to share everything with me!”
Without realizing it, the few people in the car had already become her partners.
Quinn gulped. After the shock of the morning, he had already used up most of his energy. He had finished his breakfast in a rush this morning and had forgotten what he had eaten.
He was hungry now.
“Then I’ll really eat it.”
Lauren nodded.
Quinn unceremoniously picked up the other drumstick, and the two people in the back row began to chew on their own drumsticks.
Franklin smiled when he saw the two people in the back row doing the same thing.
After the case of the missing child, the two of them seemed to be more familiar with each other, and they were no longer as hostile to each other as before.
