As I strolled through the streets, savoring my unexpected holiday, I couldn't shake off the guilt of being late for my crew job. Suddenly, a tiny ball of energy hurtled towards me, wrapping his small arms around my legs in a tight hug. I was taken aback, wondering whose child this was. The little boy, no more than 10 years old, gazed up at me with pleading eyes.

But the woman just shook her head, her eyes welling up with tears. "It's nothing, thank you for finding him. We'll be fine." With that, she quickly ushered Peter away, leaving me with more questions than answers.

I felt a sense of pride and purpose, knowing that my actions had helped bring about justice. 'Can I come down to the station?' I asked, my curiosity getting the better of me. 'I have a few questions for him.' The detective agreed, and I made my way to the station, eager to face the killer and uncover the truth behind Harin's death....
