You may have heard of me, and maybe not.
Maybe you’ve heard my voice on the radio, you may have not.
My name is Paul Henson, former Private Investigator, a guy who loves to wear white, spiky-shaggy hair and a pair of blue-tinted glasses.
I live in the large, corrupt and polluted city of Judoh. To be more specific, I live in The Outskirts of the city, a small narrow street placed around the city with a lot of poor people. Imagine the Great Wall of China, and then you would probably know how this city looks like.
I, myself, like to call the whole city of Judoh the worst place on Earth. The rich, wealthy slackers live in The Heart of the city. Not surprisingly, it includes the people who work for the government. On the other hand, the poor and the dismantled are forced to live like garbage in The Outskirts. Now why did I end up here? That’s what I’m going to tell you.

White Top Hats
It started when the rain fell. As it hit the windows rhythmically, I fought my sleep. Fighting off the demons in my dreams. I hadn't realized how real that dream became. Waking up to terrified screaming. My heart racing, the lighting striking and my family begging for their lives. I claimed myself as a coward that very same night. I hated myself. My depression became the best of me. What's worst then your family being slaughtered? Hiding in the closet from the killers. I should've helped, I should've been there for them. The pain between my chest and stomach was growing guilt. So I started thinking smart. Looking at everyone differently. I decided to reopen their cold cases. And when I found the truth it hit me deep.Complete
A VEIL IN THE SHADE
Wisnokee. A city where the night devours the weak, and justice is as twisted as the criminals who rule its streets. Corruption thrives in every alley, and the law is just another game played by those with power. Detective Elroy Stephens has spent years trying to clean up the filth, but some cases refuse to be solved in the light. That's why, when the sun sets, he becomes something else. He becomes The Veil. A masked vigilante, a shadow in the dark, the last judgment for those the system refuses to punish. But Wisnokee is bleeding, and something far more sinister has emerged. Bodies begin appearing-hanging from streetlights, from courthouse rafters, from the bones of a dying city. Each corpse bears a mark-a sentence passed by an executioner long thought to be a ghost. They call him The Hangman. And his trials have just begun. Now, The Veil must descend into the abyss of Wisnokee's underworld, facing ruthless crime lords, corrupt officials, and a cult of justice-driven fanatics who believe the only way to cleanse the city is by leaving it hanging. As the lines between justice and vengeance blur, Elroy will be forced to confront his own demons. Because in Wisnokee, the only verdict that matters is the one written in blood. In Wisnokee, justice isn't blind... it's hanging by a thread.Complete

ZZZ: Path To Heaven.
New Eridu is the last surviving city after contemporary civilization was destroyed by the Hollows. New Eridu managed to survive and thrive after the apocalypse by acquiring the technology to be able to extract resources out of the Hollows. Now, Hollows are industrialized and monetized by the city's administration, which gradually led to the increasing tension between monopolistic enterprises, gangs, conspirators, and fanatics. (Yes, I copy-paste it from the wiki.) The Criminal Investigation Special Response Team is a division of PubSec operating out of the Janus Quarter (namely, in its Lumina Square branch). They are tasked with the investigation of criminal activity, performing raids and in-Hollow operations. A new member recently joined the infamous CISRT, abruptly so sudden. His past was a mystery. Officer Y/N L/N, code name RED, has been working marvelously for past few months. Yet, secrets were well present surrounding him. And what's up with this strange looking beetle that's been flying around him?
