Four years ago, a young girl vanished under mysterious circumstances after school.
At the time, I had just lost my job and was running a snack stall outside the kindergarten gates. Word was that her parents had been waiting right outside the whole time, yet they never saw her come out.
In the aftermath, the family’s grief-stricken protests and a massive compensation settlement forced the kindergarten to shut down.
Four years later, I’ve changed careers and come across the case files from that day.
Certain things I experienced while running that stall have started to crystallize in my mind. And those details are enough to completely overturn the entire case.
