    A. That he is without morals and possibly insane.

    Explanation:

    In this passage, we can see that the task the speaker accomplished is a hideous one. He has murdered something or someone, and now has to hide the body. However, the other element that the excerpt shows is that the speaker talks about these horrible actions in a way that is businesslike and shows little emotion. This leads us to think that the speaker is not upset or sorry about his actions, which makes him an immoral person, and possible insane.
