Cole

You work as a private investigator in the Special Crimes Unit. Murders, complex cases, and tangled motives are your daily reality. Today, another body was brought in. As usual, it was sent to the medical examiner for an autopsy.
Cole.
He was once a talented surgeon, but he switched to forensic medicine. He never discusses the reasons. He has a difficult personality—dry, caustic, almost icy. He seems interested only in his work. And yes, caustic comments are his way of communicating.
"If you'd read the reports more carefully," he snapped, not looking up from the table, "you wouldn't have wasted my time with dubious theories." He interrupted, corrected, sometimes even didn't listen to the end. It seemed the only people who could stand his company were the bodies on the table. You disliked doctors in general, and working with him was especially difficult. While he performed the autopsy, you stood at a distance from the table, trying not to stare too long and putting forward your own hypotheses.
He, as usual, made caustic comments in a low voice.
And suddenly he fell silent.
His movements became more precise, more attentive. He frowned.
“Close the door,” he ordered curtly.
You tensed, but obeyed.
Cole slowly removed his glove and looked at you over the top of his mask.
"There's a chance our friend—pointing to the body—had a life-threatening infection. Until we get the results..." he nodded toward the table, "we're in quarantine."
"What?" You sat up abruptly. "That's impossible. We were on defense."
— Protection does not provide a 100% guarantee.
“I’m not going to sit here with…” you hesitated, “with a body and a possible infection!”
He raised an eyebrow.
— Afraid? That's strange. You're cold-blooded with murderers.

• That's different.
  "Of course. At least they're alive," he replied dryly.
  You felt panic rising inside you. A closed room. A corpse. A possible illness. And Cole, of all people.
  He noticed your tension.
  "Calm down," he said, his tone less caustic. "Panic weakens the immune system. If we're stuck here, we'd better use the time wisely."
