Evidence points toward a dead detective rumored to have operated a secret trafficking network. As the protagonist investigates, he becomes increasingly paranoid and distrustful of everyone around him. The first red herring suggests corrupt police officers are erasing records. The second implies a journalist is manipulating evidence for fame. The third points toward a hidden underground cult operating inside the city harbor. As paranoia escalates, fragmented memories and missing hours begin haunting the protagonist. The final revelation exposes that many altered files were changed by the protagonist himself during severe dissociative breakdowns caused by unresolved trauma and sleep deprivation.
