📖 Story

In a fluorescent-lit interrogation room, a crippled man spins an intricate web of deception that blurs the line between truth and mythology. The Usual Suspects aren't heroes or villains—they're pawns in a game orchestrated by a phantom crime lord whose reach extends beyond comprehension. As the detective's skepticism crumbles with each revelation, the final twist tears away at everything believed moments before, leaving behind only the haunting realization that evil wears the face of the ordinary.
