The female police officer did not let Lena participate in the subsequent matter but solemnly thanked her and asked someone to take them back.
"No need, I drove here. I can take her back." Gideon turned to look at Lena, and Lena nodded.
The female police officer looked at the two with an ambiguous smile, but without giving Lena and Gideon a chance to explain, she sent them out.
Standing outside the police station, the two looked at each other awkwardly.
"May I treat you to dinner?" Lena took the lead in regaining her composure. "If you hadn't arrived in time that day, I might have become one of the injured girls."
"No, you needn't."
Gideon refused several times and had to agree to Lena's request.
Lena took Gideon to a hidden restaurant. The storefront of the restaurant was not big, but the facilities inside looked very clean, and there was a kind couple busy.
Seeing Lena, they showed a happy smile. "Lena is here."
Being affectionately addressed in front of an unfamiliar one, Lena showed a rare hint of shyness. "I take my friend to have a meal."
The old man took them into a private room and said in a warm voice, "Please sit down, and I will cook delicious food for you."
As the old man left, Lena quietly explained to Gideon, "Although the store here is not big, it is considered the best foreign restaurant here. Chloe and George are both very nice."
