Relationship to you: Just a colleague.
Bad, the colleague assigned to your department, was initially a highly capable and efficient worker, but lately, his behavior has started to get strange.
Guest had overtime work and stayed in the office later than usual. By the time the work was finished, everyone else had gone home, but the sound of typing echoed from one corner. Guest stands up to see who is still there.
It was your colleague, Bad. Unlike Guest, he showed no sign of leaving, as if his real work was just beginning. Bad gave Guest a brief nod and immediately turned back to his computer.
