In a villa on Roentgen Street, Rowling's family of three plus a maid were crowded into a huge room with hundreds of people. The air was unusually turbid.
Because there were too many people, there were not enough seats, so the whole family had to sit on the floor.
As for image, I don't care about it at all.
Late last night, soldiers came to the door and brought them here on the grounds of investigating cultists.
Because she was frightened, her daughter cried for a while, until now she lay in Luo Lin's arms and fell asleep.
Seeing his daughter who still had tears in her eyes even when she fell asleep, he felt uncomfortable in his heart.
Those with strong backgrounds in the family have used their connections to leave one after another.
At first, he also expected that his family would send someone to pick them up, but his hope gradually turned into disappointment.
Until now, the family still has not sent anyone to come. He knew that he could no longer wait for anyone from the family.
Although the family he belongs to is a baron family that has declined, it is still related to some extent.
If we use our connections, we should be able to take their family out.
But the family did not. Apparently the family believed that staying for a few more days at most would not be life-threatening, and did not want to use favors for their family. After all, favors would be used up.
He secretly hated his own incompetence.
If he could inherit the title of baronet, if he could get to know powerful people, and then leave with connections, he would not let Rowling and little Kasha suffer this fate.
He tends to follow the crowd because he knows that it is really important to get to know the powerful.
It is more useful to get to know one powerful person than to get to know ten or one hundred ordinary people.
If he gets to know powerful people now, he can get out of the current predicament with his own connections even if his family is unwilling to help.
Katcha!
The door opened and a soldier walked in.
When they saw the soldiers walking in, many people looked forward to them, hoping to hear their names from the soldiers' mouths.
Although the soldiers did not say "release" or anything like that, they could guess from the excited expressions on the faces of those who left that those who had been called out by name must have been released.
Claude also looked up at the soldier, but soon lowered his head with a wry smile.
If the family wanted to use their connections to pick them up, they would have done so long ago and would not have waited until now.
"Who is Rowling Del Rey and who is Claude Del Rey?"
the soldier asked.
"I, I am...Claude Dre."
Claude suddenly raised his head, with surprise and astonishment on his face, and quickly answered.
He had given up hope, but he didn't expect the soldier to suddenly call his name.
While I was pleasantly surprised, I couldn't help but wonder, could it be that the family used their connections to pick them up?
But why so late?
"I'm Rowling Dre."
Luo Lin was also surprised and responded quickly.
"Come out as a family."
The soldier looked at Rowling and Claude who were talking and said.
"Yes Yes……"
Rowling and Claude responded in succession, and hurriedly walked out with little Kasha and the maid in their arms.
"It's not fair, it's not fair..."
"Yes, it's unfair. Why can they leave?"
Seeing them leaving, many people looked enviously, and some even shouted loudly.
"Quiet, if you make noises or incite others, you will be regarded as a cultist."
The soldiers on guard outside the door immediately entered, their muzzles pointed upward, and said coldly.
When they saw the soldiers using their guns, the shouting people immediately stopped. If they were treated as cultists, the consequences would definitely be disastrous.
Under the guidance of the soldiers, Rowling and Claude, who were full of doubts, came to a room and entered it.
There are two people sitting in the room.
One of them is a man with brown hair.
They had seen this man when they were brought.
Although this man was not wearing a military uniform, he obviously had great status. All the soldiers, including an officer, treated him with great respect.
Claude guessed that this person was probably from that special department.
And when they saw the other person, they couldn't help but have shocked expressions on their faces.
This man had black hair and a delicate face. He was someone they were very familiar with.
"Felin, why are you here?"
Rowling asked in surprise.
"Coming to pick you up."
Felin stood up, walked to his sister Luo Lin, and hugged little Kasha who had woken up.
"Uncle, I want to go home."
Being held in Feilin's arms, little Kasha said crisply.
"Uncle is here to pick you up, and he also wants to buy you your favorite pastries from Happy House."
Felin touched little Kasha's blond hair.
"Sign this confidentiality agreement and you can leave."
Kevin Long took out three confidentiality agreements and a pen, handed them to Rowling, Claude, and the maid and said.
The three of them took the confidentiality agreement and the pen, quickly signed their names on it, and handed it back to Kevin Long.
"I didn't expect that you are Sokes' sister and brother-in-law. You should have told me earlier."
Kevin Long took the confidentiality agreement and said with a smile.
Feilin was a member of the Security Bureau, and a highly valued member of it. As his relatives, it was naturally not a problem for these two people to give him some special care.
If he had known earlier that these two people were related to Felin, he would have asked the family to sign a confidentiality agreement and release the family.
"We didn't expect... Felin would actually know you."
Claude had a smile on his face and a respectful attitude.
The person in front of me may be from a special department. He is a very powerful person with many privileges.
He really didn't expect that the man in front of him actually knew Felin and seemed to have a good relationship with him.
If he had known that Felin's name would work, he would have used it long ago.
"Long, thank you."
After thanking Kevin Long, Felin left with his sister and his family.
Outside, Felin's carriage was already waiting. The group of people boarded the carriage and returned to their sister's residence.
"Felin, how did you get to know that adult just now?"
As soon as he boarded the carriage, Claude couldn't help but ask.
He really didn't expect that Felin actually knew such a powerful person.
"I met him after I joined Daweide Auction House. As you know, many of the customers of Daweide Auction House are powerful people in the city."
Felin "explained".
"No wonder it can't be."
Claude suddenly understood, and then couldn't help but sigh.
Since Felin joined Daweide Auction House, not only his financial income has become higher than him, but even the level he has been exposed to has become higher than him, surpassing him in an all-round way.
This completely eliminated his sense of superiority over Felin.
At the same time, he couldn't help but become more alert. The family could not be relied on, but Feilin, his brother-in-law, could be relied upon. He should improve the relationship between the two parties in the future.
