Maybe not the full hundred thousand, but something.” “Let me talk to Davis about it,” I said.
I worried about betraying him, even though I barely knew him. “Break hearts, not promises, Holmesy.”
“Just... I mean, who knows if they’d even give us money for that, you know? It’s just a picture. You need a ride to work?”
“As it happens, I do.” While eating dinner with Mom in front of the TV that night, I kept thinking about the case.
What if they did give us a reward? It was valuable information the police didn’t have.
Maybe Davis would hate me, if he ever found out, but why should I care what some kid from Sad Camp thought of me?
After a while, I begged homework and escaped to my room. I thought maybe I’d missed something from the police report,
so I went through it again and was still reading when Daisy called me. She started talking before I’d finished saying “Hi.”
“I had a highly hypothetical conversation with the tip line, and they said that the reward is coming from the company, not the police,
so it’s up to the company to decide what is relevant, and that the reward would only be given out after they found Pickett.
Our info is definitely relevant, but it’s not like they’ll find Pickett just with the night-vision picture,
so we might have to split the reward with other people.
