Chief Dalloway shook his head woefully, and the policeman who stood at the door held his head low. The Chief then said, “The Oleander bullets penetrated right through their hearts. The medical team couldn’t save them.”

Lucianne inhaled deeply and exhaled sadly before she said, “I am so sorry for your loss.”

“Thank you, my Queen.” Chief Dalloway responded with a polite smile, and the policeman gave her a grateful nod.

Lucianne then pushed the phone in the two cousins’ way for them to have a look as she asked the Chief, “The jungle is being searched now, I presume?”

“Indeed, my Queen. It’s been two hours but we haven’t found anything as of yet, I’m afraid.”

Xandar then asked, “Does Alfred Cummings know where his daughter would be taken by any chance?”
