The final child is near the entrance of Center District. Return to the Leaf House and talk to Ms. Folia. You will now have to defeat the “Toad King”.
7 Go through the Children's Secret Hideout to where you rescued the kids previously to fight the Hedgehog Pie King.
8 Return to the Leaf House to get your reward (the Nail Bat).

Kids on Patrol Tips & Tricks

  • When you get close enough to the children, a marker will show up nearby, which will make them even easier to spot.
  • The Hedgehog Pie King comes with two Hedgehog Pies alongside it. The catch is the King will cast Protection on them both, decreasing the damage they take from all attacks.
  • The Hedgehog Pies are the real threat here, so avoid their Bounce attack that will stun you and deal a fair amount of damage and hit them with your strongest abilities.
  • All three are weak to ice magic as well so if you get the chance use Blizzara on them, they should stagger and go down.
  • Completing this quest will also unlock the A Verified Hero Side Quest.
