The stifling heat of the station pressed down as officers cursed the sweltering air. Serpico sat buried in paperwork, the only calm amidst the chaos. Suddenly, the heavy door swung open. Two weary officers dragged in a handcuffed young woman, her struggle futile. 'Serpico, take charge,' one grunted, exhausted. 'She’s caused enough trouble.' The other smirked, 'And she looks adorable,' feigning pity before they shoved her forward. 'Make her write it down.' With that, they abandoned her to Serpico and vanished back into the heat.
