Hollowed Cries (4)

Jiwoon had entered the police station after moving in her furniture at her home. She noticed that their team was unusually quiet.

"What happened?" She asked them. "Are you guys alright?"

"We're a little depressed," Woohee replied. Jiwoon glanced at Dahoon and Jaebum who were also very disturbed by an issue.

"An autistic teenager killed himself," Dahoon said. "Today at the Capital. We saw his body and it was in bad shape."

"Man, I can't forget the way his mother was crying," Jaebum murmured in a thick tone. "She was distraught."

Jiwoon's heart was also agitated upon hearing that. She sat on her chair, feeling gloomy.

"Is there any reason he did that?" she asked them.

"We don't know," Woohee said. "There was no suicide note."

Even though deaths were a regular occurrence in their jobs, the death of a child was still the hardest thing to witness. Moreover, the child was autistic which only made it more tragic.
