"A photo?"
Mier saw the broken photo frame after trailing Kieran's gaze.
The glass on the frame was shattered by their previous rough break in. Kieran carefully shook the shattered glasses off and picked the photo up.
It was a photo of Smith, the firefighter on duty during the night of the fire.
He was wearing a firefighter uniform, standing under the sun with his colleagues.
Unlike the picture Kieran had seen in the files about him, Smith's face wasn't emotionless, he was showing a little smile.
One would need to look hard to spot the subtle smile though.
Likewise, if Kieran hadn't picked up the photo and checked it thoroughly, he wouldn't have noticed that there was a hidden layer underneath the photo.
More precisely, a piece of paper the size of the photo was stuck behind it, perfectly camouflaging.
Kieran carefully peeled the piece of paper off the photo. Mier beside him couldn't hold back her question.
