and said, âI'll have to bother you guys then. Please take me to chat face to face with the suspect, Elinorâ
Theo kept his cool, tagging along
However, the cop on guard duty at the door stopped Theo, saying
âMr. Blanchet, sorry we're in
the middle of an investigation, and since you're not involved in the case, could you please wait outside:
Theo coolly asked. âThen why does he get to go in?"
The cop understood that the âhe Mr Blanchet was referring to was Balfour, who'd just gone in, so he exp

The cop's tone grew stern. âYou two, don't follow in!â
Bryan frowned unhappily âMy brother and sister have gone in, why can't 1?"
The cop hadnât met Bryan before, couldn't
verify his identity, even though he might be there to stir things up.
âAnd who are you? Who are your brother and sister?â
Haillie acted on the fly and held Bryan back, not letting him speak.
Then she stepped forward, smiling, saying. âOfficer, the kid's got a temper; don't mind him
