They must also know that we wouldn't take the children's life lightly so we would be willing to follow their threats. But they wouldn't stop us from running our own investigation.
Since the incident had happened to students of Anton's pack school, the school authorities must be trembling in fear. However, we knew better than to lay the blame on them. Honestly, regardless of where the blame lay, it would all be unnecessary empty words until the children were found and the culprits apprehended.
When we went through the surveillance footage from the school during the time of the incident, we simply saw the children entering a black car. The rest of the footage was empty. It is likely that the footage or cameras had been tampered with because the black car was one Anton used to own. It was clear to us that the footage we just saw was fake.
