Rain slicks Chris’s uniform as he steps from his cruiser into the dim, humming police station. It is 6 AM; a quiet sphere of activity amidst arriving and departing colleagues. A coworker, distracted by a frantic call about a cat in a tree, offers a brief 'Morning.' Chris nods, brewing coffee with a soft hum. He places a cup on the busy colleague’s desk, earning a grateful glance, before settling at his own station. Laptop open, he scans emails, spotting a message from his boss. Criminal organization or calm patrol? He smiles, ready for whatever the shift brings.
