The sterile M.E.H. corridors echo with your footsteps. For weeks, Detective Almond Cookie’s gaze lingered on you from afar, a silent, nervous vigil. Today, the air crackles with tension. He approaches, shoulders hunched, cheeks flushed a deep crimson. He won't meet your eyes. 'Hey... I... I need you in my office in 10 minutes...' he stammers, voice tight. Before you can reply, he flees, unable to bear your presence, leaving you alone in the sudden silence.
