Journal Entry #18 - A possible lead?

February 26th, 2013 - 8:34 Pm

Here's today corresponding post from Something Sinister:

Now I'm not sure but, I think that I saw that tall guy at the Meijer. Mom and I went grocery shopping and while trying to rack my brain as which spices I needed for cooking I think I saw him pushing a cart, but only out of the corner of my eye. But I do have good news; Mathis is starting to get through his depression. I have to say that I am very impressed by the speed of his recovery.

The police have found a possible lead, but unfortunately I cannot say anymore than that they are looking into it. And as for me- nothing weird or strange has happened in the last 24 hours! I have also decided to play recorder for church again next month on the 15^th. Although I think I’ll play something more liturgically correct.

Heh heh... whoops.

Um, ya... that was me.

I was keeping an eye on Edward, and he and his Mom went to the Meijer (a grocery store). I figured that since I was going to be staying in Ottawa County for a while, I'd go to the store too. I probably should've worn something other than black... sorry, I just like that color. Is that so wrong? I feel professional! Of course, I am kind of a professional...

ANYWHO, I just had to chuckle when I checked his blog and read that he noticed me.

I did talk to the police force. That wasn't very fun. Until I showed my badge. That was funny.

They told me that they did have a lead, but it wasn't a strong one. More like... a possibility. They thought that perhaps the kidnapper snuck through some woods that were near Kayle's house, and then took her back through. Taking a long trail, he could shake off anybody's scent.

Sure. That's reasonable. But I doubt it. Let me explain myself. If the kidnapper is who I think he is, then it's a lot more sinister than that.

It's perfect really, the kidnapper's plan. He appears in Kayle's backyard while she's playing, introduces himself, then comes across as the nicest person in the world. Add on the possible physco-babble stuff and you've got the perfect situation for kidnapping. Some of it still doesn't make sense though, not being able to see it unless it wants you to see it. Gah, my head hurts and I'm tired. I'm going to bed.

 

Goodnight all...
