Great Detective

(The story has the genre of detective, investigation and crime solving) At the Berkeley Police Department, there was always one detective who could be found sitting in the corner of his workspace, cigarette in hand, eyes distant and contemplative—as if endlessly turning over some unsolved case in his mind. That was Arthur, once a young prodigy in the field of psychology, now reduced to the very image of a man consumed by nicotine, sleeplessness, and depression. He had not taken up the work of investigating crimes out of passion, nor out of a desire for recognition, but as a form of atonement. Because he… was a killer.
