Natalie suddenly asked the question.

Chris paused, then said, “Yes - dwarfs do exist. Even after twenty years they can stay the sheight. It
depends on when their growth stopped and whether they'd already reached their full height.”
Hearing that, Natalie felt as if a light had switched on in her head.
“A dwarf? How did | miss that possibility?” she breathed.
No wonder Anna had felt so odd; she’d been thinking in a fixed way. At first Natalie had simply assumed Anna
was a five- or six-year-old, so she never considered other explanations. But what if Anna wasn’t really a child?
What if her height and face made her look five or six, while in fact she was an adult? That would explain a lot
about her manner and expression.
no, don’t rely on that “Chris, check for anyone named Anna among the dwarf community- name; it could be fake.
Search for anyone of that description.” Natalie kept a careful mind.
While the surveillance played, she had quietly taken a clip on her phone. Anna's face wasn’t perfectly clear, but
it was something to work with.
Chris frowned as he watched the footage Natalie handed him. A flicker of recognition crossed

Chris shook his head. “No, | don’t know her. But | swear I've seen that face before. Givea moment to think.”
Natalie let him concentrate, not interrupting. Anna had clearly targeted Susie and then vanished- Natalie had to

Minutes passed and Chris's frown deepened. “My mind’s blank for now. | can’t put my finger on it...”
“It’s okay,” Natalie said, disappointed but understanding. It wasn’t Chris’s fault. If a lead appeared, great; if not,
they would keep digging.
“Let's go see Baron. The police should be arriving soon,” Natalie decided, putting the thought aside for the
moment.
Chris looked apologetic but, unable to recall, accompanied her to the hospital.

Susie, exhausted from the tests, had fallen asleep curled against Baron's leg, Scan sat nearby, drowsy as well.
When Natalie and Chris entered, they found Baron gently patting Susic and soothing Sean a picture of a father
and his children. Her racing heart calmed.
“Baron, Sean, Susie fell asleep?” Natalie asked softly as she approached.
Baron blinked at her. “You came? Is everything okay?” He glanced at Chris.
Chris quickly summarized the kindergarten events.
Natalie looked at Susie and asked in a whisper, “Is she physically all right?”
Baron nodded. “She's fine, though there's still a bit of residual toxin in her system. More water and rest will help.
The blood test results might becevidence showing Anna harmed Susie.”
He didn’t seem concerned about helping with the investigation - only firm about protecting his family.
Natalie lifted Susie into her arms. The child, stirred by her mother’s scent, nestled deeper into the crook of her
arm and slept on.
Baron explained the drug's effect had left her fatigued. Natalie's chest ached with anger.
“Who would do this to such a small child? Our Susie hardly mingles with others — it’s infuriating.”
Baron's face tightened. “I'll find out. Whoever harmed my daughter will pay.”
At that moment the police arrived.
“Mr. Gunn, good afternoon. We're from the XXX police station. Regarding the case of the teacher who was
assaulted and is now unconscious, we need you to cooperate with our investigation.”
“Of course,” Baron replied.
He glanced at Chris and said quietly,
