The leader walked up to Sophie and greeted her somewhat politely, “Are you Ms. Sophie Tanner?”

Sophie bobbed her head in response. Did they come for me?

The group of men instantly became the center of attention of the people in the school.

The leader said, “Ms. Tanner, we received a tip informing us Tanner Group was involved in illegal activities. It’s inconvenient for us to spell out the details publicly, so we need you to come to the police station with us to get a better picture of the matter!”

Panicked, Simon walked over when he noticed the people were about to take Sophie away. “Who are you? How dare you take Sophie away? You’re at the University of Medicine now. How could you—”

“We’re on duty now, sir, so please do not get in our way. If you continue to make a scene here, we’ll have no choice but to take you back with us,” the leader threatened.

“Fine! I’ll go with you! You think I’m afraid of you? We didn’t do anything that went against the law. Who gave you permission to arrest us?”

Meanwhile, Greta was among the crowd of curious onlookers.
