Those close to Keith call him ‘Geni’ (genius), and just as the name suggests, he is a genius at mathematics and has professional filing abilities. Normally, his expression rests on the wrinkle created by the furrowing of his brows, and Keith’s ability to take in everything clearly while not letting his guard down is excellent. Along with his fellow RIS members, they follow up on the serial killings related to Killer B while attempting to pull back the covers on another incident that happened over 8 years ago. However, just exactly how are these two different cases related…?
