"Sophia, let's not waste time. The neighbor downstairs has installed a surveillance camera at the entrance of the unit. Let's go check it out. Since Kelly is not at home, maybe someone broke into the house and took her away."
After saying that, my husband and I hurried out and knocked on the neighbor's door.
Fortunately, the time was right after work and the neighbor was home. After we explained the situation, the neighbor was willing to help.
In the surveillance video, a few minutes after I went out, Sophia also came downstairs. She was holding a cardboard box with the garbage in it. Next, it was people coming in and out.
My eyes were red and I stared at the screen. Finally, I lost hope. But at that moment, the neighbor's child suddenly spoke.
"Dad, I also want the doll in the box. Its hand is like my brother's. Can you ask mom to get the link and buy it for me?"
I was stunned when I heard that.
Following her gaze, sure enough, a short and thick finger was exposed outside the cardboard box in Sophia's hands.
