Mommy，We Got a Husband by Doris

Chapter 434 There's No Flesh Left

Hearing Caspian's words, Neil felt a warm glow inside; Caspian was really considerate.

"Don't worry, I won't disturb your dad's rest," Neil said quickly, flashing a reassuring smile.

Elisa stepped forward, her eyes full of gratitude. "Thanks, Uncle Neil. When my dad gets better, you're welcome to come over every day."

Neil nodded, touched by her sincerity. "Alright."

After chatting with Caspian and Elisa, Neil quietly pushed the door open and walked into Alaric's room. The last time they saw each other was at Marigold's funeral.

It hadn't been long, but seeing Alaric now, Neil was shocked.

"How did you lose so much weight in just a few days?" Neil asked, his voice full of concern. Seeing Alaric so thin made his heart ache.

Alaric gave a faint smile. "I'm okay," he said lightly, then asked, "Neil, what brings you here? Any progress on the case?"

Neil pulled out his phone and brought up some surveillance footage. "There's some progress," he said, showing Alaric the video. It was from the night Todd died, capturing a blurry figure near Ambrose's house.

Neil pointed to the screen. "The surveillance was a bit far and the image is blurry. I've watched this footage a thousand times, using every technique to enhance it, but it's still unclear. The person in the footage has similar clothes, body shape, and even walking posture. But look closely-do you see that? Is this person smoking?"

Alaric squinted at the screen, leaning in to get a better look. "It seems so," he said, trying to make out the details.

Neil pointed to the figure's hand. "Look! After smoking, he flicks the ash with his thumb, index, and middle fingers. This should be a long-term habit. Does Ambrose have this habit when he smokes?"
