The van sped up as the driver noticed Count D and Leon chasing after him. The man in the passenger seat glanced over. "Frank? What's the matter?" he asked. Frank glanced in the rearview mirror. "Two guys are chasing us...they must want the kid back..." he mumbled. The van sped up again. Count D continued running, even as Leon began to run short of breath. T-Chan had given up a while ago and just gone back to the petshop. "Count..I can't....run....any...longer..." called Leon, panting. Count D ignored him and continued to run after the van.
Leon slowed to a stop, watching Count D chase after the van until he couldn't see them anymore. He stopped and sat on a bench to catch his breath. Sure, he wanted to get Chris back...but all this running tired him out. Meanwhile, Count D had caught up to the van. He leapt forward and caught hold of the ladder on the back of the van. Chris saw the Count out the window and grinned. He was going to be saved. Count D pulled himself on top of the van and climbed to the driver's side. His dark hair blew wildly around his face. Frank glanced out his window and cried out when he saw Count D outside. The van swerved and screeched to a stop. "Run before the police get here!" cried the passenger, and the two men got out of the car and ran.
"STOP RIGHT THERE!" yelled Leon, who had decided a while back to shortcut back to the petshop through the woods. The two men stopped as Leon flashed his badge. "I saw the whole thing. You two are under arrest AGAIN...." he said, handcuffing the two men and calling for backup. "Good thing I brought this radio along." he chuckled as a few backup policemen arrived on the scene.
"You're a hero!"cried a reporter, shaking Count D's hand. "Oh, it was not important. All that matters is that young Christopher is safe." the Count replied. Leon pushed through the crowd and waved the reporters away. "Go on, get outta here. There's nothing to see here, people..case closed...bon voyage, have a nice life...adios.." he called, shooing them all to their news vans. Count D smiled. "Thank you, Detective. Those reporters are quite overwhelming." he said. Chris smiled too, glad to be safe and sound. Leon shrugged. "Yeah, well...it turns out that those two had the wrong kid. You know that kid they brought to the station? He had run away from those guys and they thought Chris was him. I don't know how they could've made that mistake." he explained. Count D nodded. "If you did not notice, the man in the passenger seat was blind. His eyes never blinked, never left their staring position. And the other man...he was only an accomplice." he added. The case had been solved, and both men were doing jail time. Thus ended another adventure for Leon and Count D.
