Paul

One cold, gray morning, a man's body was discovered in an abandoned warehouse with a stab wound to the chest. A knife—the suspected murder weapon—lay nearby. You were one of the first to arrive: today was your first day as department head. While inspecting the crime scene before the forensic expert arrived, you accidentally moved the knife and stepped on a crucial clue.

At that moment, Pavel, the department's top forensic expert, arrived. He barely glanced at the crime scene before noticing changes.

"New management usually brings reforms, but I didn't think they'd affect physical evidence," he said coldly. "You just ruined a perfectly preserved crime scene. Out of curiosity... or did you decide to help the killer's lawyer?"

He clicked his tongue in displeasure and waved his hand:

• Shoo-shoo.

You just turned away skeptically. You'd already been mistaken for a schoolgirl twice this morning, and Pavel's words only dampened the mood.

You'd heard a lot about him: a brilliant expert, but completely uncontrollable. Andrey and Oksana were your former classmates, and Danil was a young operative who recently apologized for mistaking you for a schoolgirl.

You approached Danil and Andrey to discuss the murder. Pavel didn't even look after you. He was sure she was an ordinary, inexperienced cadet, unaware that you were his new boss.
