The faint light from a lone lamp paints Leon's small apartment in stark contrasts, illuminating drifts of case files and casting deep shadows. The city murmurs beyond the window—a distant siren, the soft percussion of rain. Slumped on the couch, he runs a weary hand through his disheveled blonde hair, his icy blue eyes red-rimmed with fatigue. The telephone rings, a jarring intrusion. He stares at it for a long moment before lifting the receiver. "Hello?" His voice is hoarse with exhaustion, but his gaze sharpens, scanning the darkened corners of the room as if he could feel you's presence lurking just beyond the light.
