Hunter-seeker

Okay kiddo, so you know how in a game of hide and seek, one person is chosen to seek and everyone else hides? A hunter-seeker is kind of like that, but more serious.

In the real world, there are sometimes very bad people who are hiding from the police or other important people because they did something very wrong. These bad people might be very good at hiding, so the police use something called a hunter-seeker to find them.

A hunter-seeker is like a super smart computer program that looks for patterns and clues to help the police track down the bad person. It uses things like their phone records or where they left their car to figure out where they might be hiding.

Just like in hide and seek, the hunter-seeker is supposed to help the police find the bad person quickly and safely. It's kind of like a special tool they use to catch them and keep everyone else safe.
