This man, who had meticulously set up traps, truly lived up to his reputation as a detective. He employed all his investigative skills to frame me, leaving me unable to refute his accusations.

I slept silently inside the tent, full of curiosity about this person, Emmett.

It was just late at night, with a cool breeze blowing, and I could even hear the sound of a fierce storm.
