Crises in Love novel Chapter 302

The officer glanced at the other officer, their eyes clearly communicating before she spoke. "We're not sure that this is Evan's shoe, but given the style and condition of the shoe, it doesn't seem like it would belong to an average kid."

Hearing this, I looked at the shoe again, my heart sinking even further.

The officer continued, "We have asked around and confirmed that this shoe is pretty pricey. And from the condition of the shoe, it seems like they're practically new. They shouldn't have been discarded, especially since we only found one of them!"

"Where did you find it?" I asked urgently.

"We found it on the outskirts of the west side of town, on the fringe of the borough. It's a bit remote, and the area is mostly inhabited by farming families. It doesn’t seem like their kids would wear such shoes! And there's something else..."

She then handed me another plastic bag and said, "We also found this."

I took a look and felt like I had been struck by lightning. My heart turned ice-cold, but I kept my composure as I examined the contents.

Inside the bag was a crumpled piece of paper, apparently soaked in rainwater, the writing barely visible.

The paper had clearly been torn and was only a quarter of its original size.

But coincidentally, I could vaguely make out the name 'Evan' and a series of numbers. I looked at the officers across from me, my eyes full of questions. "What is this...?"

"Can't you tell what it is?" The male officer asked.

I shook my head, feeling a sense of foreboding.
