Daisy Ginger saw a haggard Jodie Holt at the police station and also viewed the surveillance footage the police had painstakingly gathered over half a month from the streets.
In the footage, a woman wearing a baseball cap and a face mask was fully dressed in disguise as she bought the SIM card used to contact Jodie Holt from a newspaper stand.
The video was blurry, and perhaps only those most familiar with her would be able to discern something from her silhouette.
Daisy watched the video for a moment, then slightly shook her head at the police, saying she didn't recognize the person.
After giving her statement at the police station, Daisy felt relieved, as if the burden of the past few days had dissipated.
She took the man's hand, looked up, and smiled softly at him, "Edward, could you accompany me for a stroll?"
The man glanced at her smiling lips, his eyes deepening, then casually kissed her before holding her hand and heading for the sidewalk.
