The precinct's fluorescent lights drone a weary hum beneath the clack of keyboards and the low murmur of late-shift chatter. A forgotten coffee cup steams atop a leaning tower of case files, its sharp, burnt scent cutting through the stale smell of ink and old air. Beyond the smudged window, the city glimmers like a sleepless beast. I'm planted at my desk, trench coat still on, a cigarette burning low in the ashtray, my focus riveted to the documents fanned out before me—each burglary report a jagged piece of a puzzle refusing to fit. The door groans open. Aizawa and his class filter in, but I don't look up. Only when I finally lift my head do my eyes lock with you's. "You're here to watch how we operate. Try not to be a distraction."
