“Boss.” Wang Sheng entered the room with a stack of reports in his hand and handed them to Shen Yin. “This is the information from the scene of the suicide case that just happened. The body has been transported back to the morgue. Do you want to take a look now?”
“Okay.” Shen Yin glanced at the photos taken at the scene and the preliminary autopsy report done by Wang Sheng. She got up and led them into the morgue to start work.
She was busy until lunchtime. After churning out the report, she stretched tiredly and leaned back in her chair to rest.
Zheng Ling had just disinfected herself, but she still felt that the smell of the corpse was too strong. She sprayed several more squirts of perfume on herself before sitting at the next desk in satisfaction. “Boss, it’s been a long time since we’ve gathered together in the forensics room. Do you want to have lunch together?”
“Little Ling, that’s a good suggestion. Boss, if you’re free at noon, let’s go together. My treat.” Wang Sheng prided himself on being the oldest and was usually very good at taking care of the young people in the office. Although his position was not as high as Shen Yin’s, outside of work, he still treated her equally.
Shen Yin found it difficult refuse his kindness, so she went along with the plan. She nodded and said, “Alright, you guys decide where to eat. I’m fine with anything.”
After spending some time together, Han Xu was already familiar with the people in the office. Now, he could participate freely in the discussion. “Why don’t we go to the new barbecue shop? It’s near the police station. It’s just a few steps away. We don’t even need to drive.”
“Sure, let’s go with your plan.”
They swiftly came to an agreement. After deciding on a place, they packed their things and went out for lunch.
When they reached the intersection, they stopped and waited for the traffic light to turn green.
Zheng Ling had started following a new television drama last night and she was discussing the plot with Han Xu when she suddenly heard hurried footsteps behind her. She frowned and looked over curiously. She saw a crazed-looking woman with disheveled hair fling a glass of liquid in Shen Yin’s direction.
She hurriedly stopped talking and pushed Shen Yin away anxiously, but a large volume of liquid splashed onto the back of her hand. Before she could feel any pain, a figure firmly blocked her way.
Shen Yin glared coldly at the woman’s dirty face and frowned for a while before realizing that the woman was actually Shen Luo. “What are you doing? I thought you had a proper job? How did you end up like this?”
“How did I end up like this?” Shen Luo threw her head back and laughed loudly, looking crazy and fierce. “It’s all thanks to you that I became like this! Shen Yin, even if I die, I won’t let you have a happy life. Even if I become a ghost, I
won’t let you off!”
At that moment, Wang Sheng and Han Xu finally reacted. Wang Sheng kicked over the glass in her hand that did not have much liquid left. Together with Han Xu, they flanked her and pressed her to the ground.
Shen Yin took out her phone and called her colleagues at the police station, asking them to deal with the situation. She turned around and held Zheng Ling’s wrist with a worried expression. “How do you feel? Does it hurt?”
Zheng Ling was so frightened that she began to cry. However, after crying for a while, she suddenly stopped crying and shook her head in surprise. “It doesn’t hurt at all.”
Shen Yin frowned and squatted down to pick up the cup on the ground. She recognized the cup as one that was in Shen Cheng’s favorite style. She glanced at Shen Luo, who was on the ground. She sneered and leaned closer to the cup to take a sniff. “Plain water? Shen Luo, I think you’re really crazy!”
“Luo Luo!” Lin He rushed over from somewhere and wailed as she hugged Shen
Luo, who was on the ground. She began crying bitterly. “My poor Luo Luo, Mom just looked away for a moment. Why are you here? Why were you being pressed to the ground?”
A passerby who had also been waiting to cross the intersection was holding her cell phone and taking photos of everything that had happened. When she saw that Lin He was the mother of the lunatic on the ground, she took the initiative say accusingly, “Your daughter is crazy. How could you let her run around by herself? Do you know that she actually splashed water on that young lady just now? Fortunately, it was plain water. If she had splashed acid, your daughter would have gone to jail! Do you know that?!”
Lin He stopped crying and slowly raised her head to look at the phone that the person was holding. She followed the direction in which she was pointing and looked at the girl who had almost been hurt by her daughter. Only then did she realize that the person was Shen Yin. She immediately screamed, “It’s you!
You’re the one who caused my daughter to become like this! You jinx, why did you return to China! To think that you’re a police officer. You’re a demon who only knows how to harm people!”
“What? The police are harming people?” The passersby who were watching the commotion were in no hurry to leave. They surrounded them, eager to get to the bottom of the matter.
There were also some kind-hearted passersby who could not stand the sight of the two men oppressing a young lady. They pointed at them righteously and said, “I say, the young lady’s mother is already here.. Why don’t you let her go? You’re police officers, right? Shouldn’t the police be more sensitive towards those with mental issues? You really lack empathy!”
