Why Did You Provoke Her? She Can Tell Fortunes!-Chapter 131 - 104: Specially Appointed Personnel

Shouldn’t he have conducted a thorough investigation of the person, or driven them away?

This reaction seems a bit too peaceful!

Zhou Zhicheng stepped forward and simply asked about the reason. After learning that Mu Yunchu wanted to enter the autopsy room, he directly took out a document.

"Well... Wen, actually there’s something I haven’t had the chance to announce."

It was shown to Wen Xu, but it was actually intended for everyone present.

After spending time together in the past, Zhou Zhicheng had developed almost absolute trust in Mu Yunchu.

Now hearing that she wanted to go in, he instinctively felt that there might be some issue with the recent murder case.

"Mu Yunchu, as of five minutes ago, has become a special-appointed member within our bureau, enjoying the highest level of privileges."

Meaning that within this bureau, Mu Yunchu could have access to any information except his own.

Of course, she could enter the autopsy room as well.

He Jiarong: !!!

She listened incredulously to all of this.

Ever since she joined the system, it was her first time hearing about the ’special-appointed member’ notion in the city police bureau, let alone with such high authority.

"Captain Zhou! Aren’t you afraid she might be a bad person?" He Jiarong shouted insistently.

She didn’t understand how this girl, who looked several years younger than herself, could be so skilled to gain Zhou Zhicheng’s favor.

Zhou Zhicheng put away the approval document with the official seal, replaced it with a stern expression, and turned to look at He Jiarong.

"Speaking of unauthorized entry, I recall you’re not an internal member of our police team either."

"This..."

Her intended defense was interrupted by Zhou Zhicheng’s cold tone, "Next time, deliver the files to the office. The basement is cold, and idlers have nothing to do here."

He Jiarong was, after all, a twenty-something girl, and given Zhou Zhicheng’s age, he could be her father. Moreover, he had the real qualifications and experience of an old criminal detective, having faced countless felons, making him extremely daunting when he got serious.

Being reprimanded in front of the person she liked, He Jiarong became dazed and started to sway, losing her earlier momentum.

She instinctively glanced at Wen Xu, hoping for comfort from him, but only saw his back...

Immediately she lowered her head, responded softly, and barely managed to hold back the tears swirling in her eyes from falling.

...

The matter outside the door seemed like just a little episode, neither Mu Yunchu nor Wen Xu were distracted by it in the slightest.

To Mu Yunchu, such people weren’t worth her time and didn’t cause her the slightest harm, so she didn’t utter a word when facing difficulties.

Wen Xu, on the other hand, didn’t care.

To be honest, he didn’t even remember the woman’s name, only recalling that she was very bothersome.

Once inside, the two naturally began discussing other matters.

"It really hasn’t been more than five minutes." 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Much to Wen Xu’s assistant’s surprise, the conversation between them was initiated by Wen Xu.

This remark undeniably affirmed Mu Yunchu’s capabilities.

He put on specialized gloves, glancing out of the corner of his eye at the silent figure standing not far away, experiencing a different feeling.

This was Mu Yunchu’s first time facing a corpse dissection head-on.

Also, it was Wen Xu’s first time allowing an outsider into his work space.

The moment he picked up the scalpel, a subtle change occurred in his aura.

Under the pale light, his originally gentle face was as if coated in frost.

If previously he was a ’flower of high places’, distant and unreachable, now he was a puzzle explorer, wholeheartedly devoted to precision and professionalism.

His movements were gentle yet precise, every incision smooth and natural, without any hesitation or panic.

Mu Yunchu unconsciously shifted her gaze from the corpse to his face, but then quickly looked away again.

It seemed he and his assistant had been working together for a long time; the latter quickly captured every word Wen Xu said, promptly forming a forensic report.

Just at the point of dissecting the thoracic cavity, Mu Yunchu, who had been standing far away, suddenly approached.

The few people saw a very eerie scene.

A worm of unknown species, once exposed to air, dissolved into a puddle of blood in the blink of an eye, leaving no trace behind.

Wen Xu: !!!

He quickly looked towards Mu Yunchu, not missing the dark look in her eyes, and then guessed that this was the reason she insisted on coming into the autopsy room with him.

Everything had happened too quickly.

Fast enough to feel like an illusion.

During the final cleanup, Wen Xu removed his gloves and went to wash up, casually asking, "What was that worm?"

He had seen stranger things before, so he wouldn’t be fazed.

Mu Yunchu glanced sideways at him, not giving a direct answer.

"It’s better for Forensic Wen to know less."

Some things shouldn’t be disclosed to ordinary people, as they could inadvertently be dragged into unforeseen disasters.

The emergence of Gu Worms in Qinghe City suddenly triggered an alarm in Mu Yunchu’s heart.

The worry is that there’s a deeper conspiracy behind it.

After all, Qinghe City has been quite unrestful lately.

On the surface, everything appears unchanged, but unseen currents are flowing underneath.

Though she didn’t answer, Wen Xu wasn’t annoyed.

He washed his hands and began discussing another matter.

"Xia Ling... was sought out for revenge by the killer, covered in wounds, even having both hands severed."

The assistant who had completed his task looked over here, then tactfully left the room.

Thus, the only sound inside the room was the water flow accompanying Wen Xu’s emotionless narration.

"I happened to watch your livestream today."

"Did you know the killer would come after her?"

After Wen Xu’s words fell, Mu Yunchu surprisingly glanced at him.

Because he didn’t seem like the sort of person interested in others’ business.

Nor would he inquire purely out of seeking justice for Xia Ling.

So, for him to ask this question now was somewhat inexplicable.

Yet she simply uttered, "Yes."

Even without Wen Xu asking further, she naturally explained, "I gave her a choice."

If she had shown remorse, she might have been saved. But she didn’t feel she was wrong at all.

"Moreover, it’s the sins she carries herself."

Sometimes the cycle of cause and effect, even for someone like Mu Yunchu, can’t be forcibly intervened.

Initially, one might have assumed Wen Xu was curious why Mu Yunchu didn’t intervene, but he merely asked:

"Indeed... If someone bears heavy sins, it seems they can’t find redemption."

When he uttered this, his voice was so soft that it was unclear if he was asking Mu Yunchu or musing to himself.

This thoroughly caught Mu Yunchu’s attention.

She turned her body, directly facing him, not missing the fatigue that was difficult to conceal on Wen Xu’s face.
