Nobody believed the youngster when he yelled that his mother was still alive at her grave until the cops showed up.
At the start of May, people started to notice the boy at the cemetery. He was no older than ten years old. He visited the same grave every day. He would scream into the air while seated on the ground and pressed up against the chilly stone:
— She is still alive! She’s not present!
Visitors gave him pitying looks. Everyone had the same thought: sadness. The loss was just too much for him to handle. He would eventually accept that his mother was no longer with him.
However, the youngster continued to show up after a week and then another. regardless of the weather.
The cemetery custodian found it difficult to put up with the cries every day. He eventually phoned the cops one day.
A young policeman showed up. He approached the boy.
“Hello,” he whispered softly.
The boy looked up, flinching. His eyes had an adult appearance, and his face was emaciated and marred by tears.
“Are you able to determine whether someone is breathing underground?” he inquired.
The cop was surprised.
— No It is not appropriate for a child to think about that.
They said that my mother dozed off while driving. She never got tired, though. “Never!” the boy muttered. They also prevented me from saying farewell.
The burial was examined by the officer. The soil was new and hadn’t settled. There was a shovel close by.
— Who said that to you?
– The individuals she served. A woman who never stops smiling and a man wearing a gold ring. Even when she’s upset, she smiles.
— Are you familiar with their names?
They were said by the boy. They were noted by the officer. The young cop remembered the talk and informed his superiors about it because of something in his tone.
An investigation soon started. It was discovered that Anna, the boy’s mother, worked as an accountant for a major pharmaceutical corporation.
It was said that she had disappeared from work a week prior to the “accident.” She was “overworked,” according to her boss, who later claimed she had “died.” The company’s own physician signed the death certificate.
The casket was closed at the funeral; there was no viewing. No autopsy. The officer demanded that the body be exhumed. There was nothing in the coffin.
A federal investigation was launched into the situation. Additional information surfaced: the boy’s mother, Anna, was more than just an accountant.
She had compiled a comprehensive file on the company’s executives, including financial transactions, audio recordings, documents, and schemes. She intended to give the prosecutor’s office everything. However, someone discovered it at work.
Then something happened that even the boy didn’t know about.
Anna had never been in an automobile accident. The cops had arranged her “death.”
The police already had pieces of other cases involving the same corporation on the day she delivered the evidence to the station.
The decision to enroll Anna in the witness protection program was taken quickly.
They staged her death to prevent the company’s leaders from suspecting a leak. From the start, the casket had been empty.
The court received all of the evidence. However, in order to protect the operation, the boy was not informed. All he knew was that his mother was still alive.
He was correct.
Anna showed up at their former home three months after the trial, after the case had been won and the guilty had been taken into custody.
