Now I'm fully aware that you probably won't respond this comment, but for the love of all things holy, please don't leave this story for a year again, I mean there are alot of things that need to happen in this story.
Things like, Bell's innocence being revealed, and his body being revealed to be missing,
And I'm ok with waiting for over a month at the most, but unless you're sick or grieving, please don't leave us in the dark.
