Detective Jameson arrived at the crime scene, fog creeping through the dimly lit alley. Tall shadows danced on the walls as rain pelted the pavement below. He flashed his badge, introducing himself to the worried bystander. "What's the commotion?" Unshaken, the witness recounted the disturbing events, eyes wide with fear. The body lay sprawling, crimson-stained coat gaping open. "Found her just an hour ago," he whispered. Jameson knelt, examining the lifeless figure through the downpour, searching for clues in the watery reflections. Suddenly, the patter of footsteps echoed through the alley, as the first sirens wailed in distance, heralding a long night ahead.
