They do not suspect that the young man is a boy who was called a werewolf and was driven out by the population into the forest with his grandfather a dozen years ago.

One day, a young man named Arthit works at the home of a wealthy merchant as a slave, who also has a son of his age, Kongpop. One time he went to collect firewood in the forest, and the wealthy merchant's son followed him secretly, because of suspicion.

He peeked between the trees and saw his family slave standing in the midst of the wolves, but he felt strange because the young man showed no fearful expression at all, instead, he stroked the head of the greatest wolf casually.

Suddenly, he accidentally made a movement and a wolf jumped to pounce on him, but he was lucky to be saved by his family slave. Arthit asked him to keep a secret about what he saw in the woods. Both have been good friends since then.

"P'Nat! I found new evidence from the autopsy!" Fah said.

"Oh, what did you find?"

"Animal fur, fangs, and claws..." he paused. "Embedded inside the victim's body..."

"You mean?"

"L-looks like the victim is not human..."

"No kidding!"

Fah then showed proof and a photo to him, which showed the structure of the victim's bones and teeth of the victim are different from humans, the back and the groin have animal fur growing from under his skin.

"Do not put this proof into the report before we find accurate evidence!" Nat command. "And do not tell the others before I command!"

"Why?" Fah was confused.

"Because I do not want others to come up with unreasonable opinions!"

"Fine, I understand!" Fah replied. "Then what to do with this evidence?"

"Let me keep it first!" Nat took the document from Fah's hand. "You didn't make a copy, did you?"

"No..." said the girl still confused. "What about the hospital?"

"Tell the doctor who did the autopsy to keep this a secret! If this gets scattered, the name of our department is at stake! I do not want people to think we're crazy! It really does not make sense!"
