"Sir, she's dead."
Ren sighs, not wanting to look at the officer who stood in front of him. "Her body was found in a plane that had left earlier, and returned." Ren opens a drawer in his desk, pulling out a small, empty vial. "This was also found with her." He hands a photograph to Ren, who looks at it briefly, setting it down on his desk. Ren twirls the vial carefully in his hand a couple of times, and hands it to the officer.
"Dispose this. Don't let anyone find it."
"Yes sir." The officer salutes him, and quickly leaves. The door shuts, and Ren was left by himself. He grabs the picture and turns around, his back facing the door, as he looks at the picture once again. He quietly lets out a few tears, and puts his hands up against the wall, resting his head against it. Taking a couple of deep breaths, he whispers to no one:
"I'm sorry."
