HC CH9

by DewdropTL — In the western district, near the outskirts of the city, there was an old street lined with low houses. Because it was far from the city center and didn’t belong to any newly developed suburban area, there were no commercial opportunities. Young people found commuting difficult, so only elderly residents accustomed to the place still lived there. The street had even preserved the tradition of weekend street markets. The weather was a bit hot, yet Mei Ruixue wore a black windbreaker with the hood…

HC CH88

by DewdropTL — Ling Lie's tied-up hair had come a bit loose. As he was re-tying it, he said, "One of the duties of a temporary worker is to be admired by the leader." Ji Chenjiao pressed a hand on top of his head, messing up the hair he had just neatened. Ling Lie yelped, "Hey, hey! How dare you, temporary worker, offend your leader!" Ji Chenjiao said, "Then go ahead and call the police." The two horsed around for a bit until the archive administrator, hearing the commotion, came to see what was happening. Ji…

HC CH87: Funeral

by DewdropTL — Feng City. In summer, the sky brightens early. Old Shen, who ran a small food business at the hospital entrance, was up at four in the morning. He prepared the dough for breakfast, instructed his apprentice to start the congee, and rode his tricycle to a wholesale market two bus stops away to pick up the meat and vegetables needed for the day. Before six o'clock, the first wave of customers had arrived. The Third Hospital was one of the best in Feng City, where appointments were hard to come by,…

HC CH86

by DewdropTL — Ling Lie was waiting at a red light at an intersection, surrounded by the deafening roar of traffic. At that moment, it was as if he had suddenly gone deaf; he couldn't hear a thing. When the pedestrian light turned green, he took two steps back against the flow of people, stunned. "What did you say? Who's dead?" Shen Xun said, "Wei Liang, Wei Zhiyong's son." Suddenly, the sound of fingernails scraping across a blackboard, the sound of train wheels misaligning on the tracks, echoed in Ling Lie's…

HC CH85

by DewdropTL — Even when the criminal detectives got rowdy, they knew their limits. By just after eight in the evening, everyone had said their goodbyes and gone home. Xi Wan and Liang Wenxian wanted to stay behind to clean, but Ling Lie told them it was fine, just a matter of mopping the floor and wiping the tables. Xi Wan looked around; the state of the apartment wasn't too bad. The main mess was from the cooking stage, where Liang Wenxian, like a neat freak, had cleaned as he went. Everyone had been eating for a…

HC CH84

by DewdropTL — The raw marinated drunken shrimp was delivered to Ji Chenjiao. Although he knew Ling Lie had made this dish for him yesterday, he really hadn't expected to actually get to eat it. He was surprised for a good while, wanting to take a picture, but his phone had already been collected, and there was nothing around him that could take a photo. He studied the drunken shrimp as if to commit it completely to memory. Only after completing this strange ritual did he begin to eat. This Ling Lie person really…

HC CH82

by DewdropTL — At this point in the investigation, Dan Jin's motive would no longer affect the court's verdict, but it was crucial for turning public opinion around. The Major Crimes Unit and the municipal bureau's Public Opinion Department didn't have much contact. When Ji Chenjiao arrived, the head of the public opinion team was so worried about the online chatter that he was losing his hair. When Ji Chenjiao explained the situation, the team leader jumped up in excitement. "Then what are we waiting for? I'll…

HC CH81

by DewdropTL — Ji Chenjiao had encountered many vicious and brutal murderers. For the most part, they all shared similar characteristics: they would painstakingly conceal their crimes, flatly deny everything until the police presented decisive evidence, and finally, upon seeing the writing on the wall, after a brief moment of shock, they would quickly calm down—as if they had known from the start that this was a road of no return. "But I don't regret it, and don't you dare delude yourselves into thinking I'll…
