Robert did not walk in.
But he felt pleased.
After wiping the old lady's body with a towel, Abigail began to tidy her up.
Abigail, who knew that the old lady was a naturally tidy person, cleaned up and talked to her. "I know you've always been quite neat, so I help you clean up..." She suddenly stopped in the middle of the sentence and continued, "Should I get you a little dirty? Maybe you can't stand it then you will wake up?"
She couldn't help but laugh after saying that.
After tidying up everything, Abigail chatted with the old lady for a while. She didn't leave until it was late.
"I've already got everything done. There shouldn't be any problem. I'll come to see you tomorrow. I hope you'll be awake by the time I come back tomorrow..."
"If you don't wake up, I'll have to bother you every day!" Abigail added.
The old lady was lying on the bed, unresponsive.
Abigail looked at her, then tucked her in, and slowly walked out.
The room fell silent.
The old lady lay on the bed, still unresponsive.
No one knew when she would wake up.

"Here's the deal, Mr. Jones. You've reported a case before, so we have to ask you a few questions!" One of the police captains said.
"Did you find anything?" Liam asked directly.
If it weren't for what happened or what they found, they wouldn't have called him and asked him anything.
