Chapter 4 - Chapter 3:

The nights grew longer and longer for Miles, consumed by the obsession with solving the mystery of Rosalie's death. In his small apartment lit by the pale glow of the computer, he tracked down the slightest clues, scrutinizing every detail of police reports and press articles.

Yet despite his strenuous efforts, the answers seemed to elude him, hiding in the darkest corners of the city. Was Rosalie really an innocent victim, or was she hiding unspeakable secrets that sealed her fate?

The night he discovered the audio cassette marked the beginning of a descent into hell for Miles, a dizzying dive into the abyss of urban crime where every shadow concealed mortal danger. But it was too late to turn back now; he had tasted the venom of truth, and he could no longer break away from it.

Determined to unravel the veil of mystery surrounding Rosalie's death, Miles delved even deeper into his investigation. He not only scratched the surface of the facts, but explored every avenue with an almost obsessive intensity.

Sleepless nights piled up, but Miles didn't falter. His apartment became his headquarters, his computer his modernized Sherlock Holmes lamp, illuminating the dark areas with repeated mouse clicks and frantically typed lines of code.

Doubts tormented him. Maybe Rosalie wasn't the person he thought he knew. Maybe she had a troubled past, unspeakable secrets that had finally caught up with her. But something in Miles' obsession refused to accept this version. He had known Rosalie, or at least he thought so. He had seen the glimmer of life in her eyes, the warmth of her smile. He couldn't accept that she was just a troubled character in an urban crime story.

The audio cassette was a common thread in this maze of mystery. Its contents haunted Miles' thoughts, resounding in his mind like an ominous echo. He needed to understand what it meant, to untangle the threads of the story to discover the hidden truth.

The city itself seemed to breathe with a life of its own, its dark streets and abandoned corners becoming shadow theaters where invisible dramas were played out. Each person Miles encountered became a potential suspect, each location a possible crime scene. Paranoia crept into his mind as he scanned each face, searching for clues in fleeting expressions and nervous gestures.

But despite his best efforts, the answers continued to elude him, hiding behind closed doors and closely guarded lies. Rosalie remained an enigma, her destiny as obscure as ever. And as the days passed, Miles wondered more and more if he would eventually find the truth or if he himself would be swallowed up by the darkness he was trying to penetrate.
