Feelings of Guilt

The two detectives left after asking Neil a few more questions. 

After they left, Neil sat down on the sofa and rubbed his temple. Noticing the quiet atmosphere, Neil turned to Edith and saw that she was sitting across him with her arms crossed on her chest and she was in deep thought.

Looking at her serious expression, Neil let out a chuckle. "What are you thinking about?"

Edith turned to his voice and her expression relaxed. "Just something that the detectives had said." 

Neil stood up and walked over to his girlfriend. He pecked at her cheek and smiled. "Don't think too much about it. I have told them what I know. It will be up to those detectives to look for Miss Shen."

Edith sat up straight and looked into Neil's eyes. "Darling, don't you think that it was a little strange?"

"What is?" He tucked a few strands of hair behind her ear.
