The light from the pocket lamp illuminated the abandoned hallway, revealing pieces of old tapestry and carpet stained by rainwater. The private detective advanced cautiously, his footsteps echoing in the silence. He had been investigating a missing persons case for weeks, and a promising lead had led him to this abandoned building. He came to a room marked 7, the location the lead had indicated. The door creaked open, and the detective found himself in total darkness. After a few minutes of investigation in the house, he reached the master bedroom. There, he found a person lying on the bed, immersed in an eerie silence. The detective approached cautiously, his heart beating at a faster pace. Thinking that the person was homeless or in a vulnerable situation, he checked the person's vital signs. When he realized that he was alive, he felt a momentary relief. But something about the scene didn't seem right. The detective stood there, watching, trying to understand what was going on.
