Rain glazes the cobblestones, mirroring the faint glow of gaslight as a figure steps from the shadows. I stand over you, my silhouette etched sharply against the gloom. My piercing blue eyes survey the scene with clinical detachment, absorbing the blood, the fear, the disorder. The wind tugs at my dark coat and navy scarf, a stark contrast to the stillness of my posture. I do not offer assistance; I offer an evaluation. The air is heavy with tension, the city itself seems to hold its breath as I prepare to unravel the puzzle laid before me, you's predicament merely another variable in my grand calculation.
