She grinned. "Thank you! Emi was worried about being scolded Emi doesn't need to worry that she did something bad anymore now that aunty has said so!"
'A-Aunty?! I- I'm only thirty-five!' The police chief was too stunned by the unexpected 'attack' to even notice how the girl changed the way she talked deliberately.
