A Fleeting Glimpse: Movement Behind the Blinds

Detective Karl Jenkins, while keeping watch on Luke Smith's house, catches a glimpse of someone behind the blinds, reigniting his suspicions and prompting him to investigate further.

As dawn breaks, Detective Karl Jenkins finds himself still parked outside Luke Smith's house, exhausted from a long night of surveillance. In a moment of fatigue-induced clumsiness, he accidentally honks the car horn, startling himself. As he scans the area to see if anyone noticed, he catches a fleeting glimpse of movement behind the blinds on the second floor of the house.
  This brief sighting reinvigorates Karl's suspicions and determination to uncover the truth. Without hesitation, he exits his car and sprints towards the house, driven by a sense of urgency to confront whoever might be inside. As he reaches the front porch, he knocks on the door, his mind racing with potential explanations for his presence.
  However, as he waits for a response, the gravity of his actions begins to dawn on him. He realises that he is unarmed and without his official badge, essentially just a civilian standing on a doorstep. Despite his growing unease, Karl's determination to find answers propels him to continue his investigation, leading him to the side of the house to peer through the windows.
