NovelFinishChapter 487 "What are you looking to find?" Elliot asked him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTarquin laid his cards on the table, "Blossom and the mysterious figure are tangled up somehow. I want to check the surveillance, see if we can trace their connection." Elliot was taken aback, "Blossom and this mystery person are connected?!" "Yeah!" "Why do you suspect Blossom? Got any proof?" Tarquin explained, "The mystery person has a thing for harming stray cats. We've found dead cats in the trash bags Blossom tossed out, more than once. And the way those cats died... it's exactly how the mystery person does their thing." Elliot's brows furrowed deeply. He suddenly remembered the night they were threatened by the mysterious figure, using Emmett as leverage. At that time, it was only Emmett and Blossom together. After the threat, Emmett went off the grid, only to find out later it was because Blossom had shown up out of the blue. Could Blossom really be connected to this mysterious figure? But Blossom seemed so pure, so kind! Elliot shook his head, firmly stating, "Blossom can't be the bad guy." Tarquin replied, "Didn't say she was bad, but she's as naive as your mom." Elliot: "..." || Tarquin added, "I suspect she's being used by the mystery person. Otherwise, those dead cats wouldn't just magically appear in her trash. Unless... The mystery person is living with her, killing stray cats and sneaking them into the trash bags, while Blossom unknowingly takes them out." This kind of scenaisn't rare in thrillers. Sfolks secretly squat in someone else's home, making it theirs when the owner isn't around. When the owner is home, they hide in scorner, waiting for the owner to leave or fall asleep before sneaking out.
"No way!" Elliot immediately objected. "We've been living with Blossom for the past two months. If there was something off at home, we'd have noticed!" Tarquin agreed. The mystery person might be elusive, but these kids weren't to be underestimated. He could hide from Elysia and Blossom, but he couldn't escape the notice of these young detectives. So it was just a thought. He didn't believe the mystery person would hide in Blossom's house either. But the connection between Blossom and the mystery person was solid.
Elliot suddenly asked, "Is it possible the trash bags weren't ours to begin with?" "Possibly, so I want to check the surveillance, see how those dead cats ended up with Blossom." Elliot was silent for a moment before saying, "Our neighbor, the old lady across the hall, is suspicious. Blossom mentioned that the lady's son settled overseas, hasn't been back in years. The lady lives alone now, but since she's quite old and suffers from dementia, she's got a nurse coming over to check on her. Blossom's pretty close to her, sometimes brings her treats. If she saw trash outside her door, she'd likely take it out too." As Elliot spoke, his frown deepened, "I'll check the surveillance first. Elijah's room has a computer, I'll go now." Tarquin said, "I've got a computer in my study. Let's watch it there together, it'll be quicker." "You can't watch." "Huh? Why not?"
Elliot muttered, "The video's got sof our brothers' secrets, stuff there's е you shouldn't see."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDon't ask what secrets. If you ask, it means I won't tell you.
Tarquin didn't pry further. The secrets of kids weren't his concern. Actually, asking Blossom directly would be the simplest solution, but they feared spooking whoever was involved. Soon enough, Elliot found something significant.
