The disgusting smell made my mother frown.

She had been staring at the screen for two hours, adjusting the time repeatedly, but there was still no sign of Lily Thomas on the screen.

Captain Smith took out a hand knife and pointed it at the gap at the bottom of the express delivery. I was so nervous that I broke out in a cold sweat.

The clue is hidden in that mezzanine.

Just as Captain Smith's knife was about to fall on the cardboard box, my mother's cell phone suddenly rang.

When the mother saw the words on the screen, she felt relieved instantly.

"Baby, where have you been? Mommy is so worried!"

She answered the phone and walked out, ignoring Captain Smith.

The moment he walked out, Captain Smith's knife just stabbed into the cardboard box.

Mom couldn't wait to drive home. I could only watch her rush into the house and hug Lily Thomas tightly.

The sour emotions overwhelmed me and made it difficult for me to breathe.

Lily Thomas held the medicine bag in her hand and waved it in front of her mother.

"Mom, you've been busy investigating a case lately and haven't had much rest, so I checked online and bought you some tonic medicine."

When my mother heard her words, she hugged her tighter with excitement. "With our baby's care, no matter how hard it is, mom won't feel tired!" Looking at her happy face, it was completely different from the hatred when she mentioned my name.

Lily Thomas talked a lot of nonsense, but I knew she was not going out to buy any tonic.

She went to apply for a passport.

On the day she killed me, she said she would leave the country before the case was fully investigated.

Now , my DNA matching results are about to come out, and she must escape before then.

But the mother was completely unaware. She had no idea what kind of devil she was in her arms and she bent down and gave her a light kiss on the face.

"Baby, you should have a good rest. You must be tired after taking the exam. Mom bought you a gift, but I lost it carelessly. Mom will go see if there is anything else in the refrigerator and make you something to eat."

After saying that, she turned and walked into the kitchen, not even caring about the fact that she hadn't slept for two nights, just to make a meal for Lily Thomas.

My eyes suddenly became wet. It turns out that even the dead can shed tears...

I curled up in a corner of the living room, buried my head between my legs, and forced myself not to look at my mother busying herself with Lily Thomas . However, the sound of pots and pans colliding could not be suppressed and reached my ears.

Just after washing the vegetables, my mother received a call. In order not to delay the work at hand, she pressed the hands-free button. "The results of the cigarette butts sent for inspection last time are out."

Hearing this voice, I slowly looked up. Lily Thomas in the living room froze as she looked at her phone, and a sinister look flashed in her eyes.

DNA from anyone on it . It's very strange, and it doesn't look like it has been washed by body fluids."

My mother paused as she was about to cut vegetables. She just said "got it" and hung up the phone. She frowned slightly, and when she was about to continue cooking, Captain Smith called again.

This time, Mom directly told him the result she had just heard, and there was a brief silence in the receiver.

After a while, Captain Smith spoke again, his voice hoarse with fatigue.

"There's something in the package from Lucy Thomas. Something might have happened to Lucy Thomas."

My nose felt sour. It was the first time I heard news about myself from an outsider.

However, my mother had no intention of asking further questions. When she heard my name, she hung up the phone impatiently and turned back to continue cooking for Lily Thomas.

As if she remembered something, she walked out of the kitchen wearing an apron, looking at Lily Thomas with tenderness and doting eyes...
