“It doesn't matter.”

Fox put a puncture in his inflated theory of the 'stranger girl'.

“We are looking for a person who knows Ursula and have access to a S350. Guy, or girl, doesn't matter.”

They were having evening snacks in the living room of their apartment. It was a small dwelling aesthetically designed by Fox himself. Collins searched his red face glowing in the dim light of the sinking sun coming through their balcony along with the traffic sound as well. Fox was looking unusually excited and displaying all signs of finding a good lead.

Collins neighed gently which made Fox spilled his coffee.

“Is it a courteous way of saying that I am horsing around?”

“Great that you got it without me putting it in words.”

“I talked to Rebecca's mother.” Fox said. He looked like he was suppressing his excitement for a while to let Collins finished his report.

“Rebecca saw a ghost last year.” Fox said.

“Nick said the same thing. I hope you understand what tale-teller teenagers can be.”

“I am not saying based on her story alone.” Fox got up from his armchair and gave him a printout of an article. “I tried to find local stories about ghosts. Someone else saw the ghost too,” he emphasized the point, “the same ghost.”

He lazily took the article from his hand and put it on the side table. He was never interested in ghost sighting during cases.

“What is the point? Are we going to chase a ghost now?”

“We are just eliminating the suspects.” said Fox strolling in the living room. “First suspect is Timothy Palmer who blackmailed her. Second is Richard Brenguoahm who dated her. Third, the guy who was with her at the motel. One of them will definitely lead us to Ursula.”

“But where does the ghost come into the picture?”

“Seriously? Are you asking me? Ursula was taken to Pitmedden instead of Jacobsville. She was actually traveling in the opposite direction and the only connection we have between high school and Pitmedden is Rebecca. She might be the most important clue we have. More important than the red fabric and the phone call made to the mechanic.”

“Oh wait. Did you trace the call to the mechanic?”

“It is a bummer. The call was made by a burner phone.”

“What about the girl who went missing?” Collins asked.

“Felicia. Her foster parents said she ran away from home but I doubt it. Her clothes, shoes, even books are taken except her mobile. How can a teenage girl leave her mobile behind?”

Collins scratched his forehead. This case was getting complicated day by day.

“Do you think these two missing cases are connected?”

“There are two things common between both cases. First, they belong to the same school. Second, both cases can be explained as a kidnap or a runaway. If you look at Ursula’s case, there was no need to call the mechanic or to stop at the motel. It looks like these clues are deliberately left behind to make police doubt the kidnap theory which bring us back to the guy at the motel.
