41 Looking for Trouble

With the help of Zou Sheng and Wu Zheng, Shen Yin refroze the body parts to preserve them.

As soon as he left the autopsy room, Zou Sheng let go of his nose, which he had been pinching all this while. He leaned against the wall and gulped. Even in his sorry state, he remembered to give Shen Yin a thumbs up.

"Dr. Shen, I admire you so much now. From now on, you are my idol!"

"Don't be so cheeky." Shen Yin smiled and handed him a bottle of water. "Drink some water to calm yourself. Then try to catch some sleep. You've been busy all night. You have to take care of your health."

"What about you?" Zou Sheng looked at her worriedly. She had just left the autopsy room, and now she was sitting in front of the computer. He tried to persuade her, "Sister Shen, you should rest too. You can write the autopsy report later."

Shen Yin shook her head, and there was a hint of worry on her face. "No, I don't like to procrastinate when it comes to my work. I'll rest after I'm done and have handed the report to Captain Wu. Besides, my intuition tells me that this case isn't that simple. It's better to finish it quickly and not delay your investigation."

"You're really dedicated." Zou Sheng nodded in admiration. Just as he was about to leave, he bumped into Meng Heng, who was carrying a bento box.

"Wow, it smells so good! Little Meng is so considerate. Let me see what delicious food you've prepared for me."

"It's not for you." Meng Heng blushed in embarrassment. When he turned and saw Shen Yin's gaze, he subconsciously raised the lunch box. "Sister, I thought you might not have time for breakfast, so I took the initiative to buy you a meal. Do you want to eat before you work?"

"Oh my, Little Meng, now that you have Sister Shen, you've forgotten about me. I haven't eaten yet. I'll eat with Dr. Shen." Zou Sheng tried to grab the lunch box, but Meng Heng reacted quickly and slapped his hand away, protecting the fragrant food.

"Your share is in the office. Go back and eat."

He placed the lunch box back on Shen Yin's desk as if presenting a treasure. He looked uneasy, as if afraid that Shen Yin would reject him in front of Zou Sheng.

Shen Yin found their bickering amusing. Their commotion had reduced her fatigue a little. She raised her eyebrows and thanked Meng Heng gratefully.

She had been busy all morning and her stomach was growling. The moment she smelled the fragrant food, she realized she was extremely hungry.

Meng Heng smiled sweetly when saw that she was willing to eat the food he bought and he poured a cup of hot water for Shen Yin. "Sister, drink some hot water before eating. It's good for your stomach."

"Thank you." Shen Yin took a sip and was about to open the bento box when her cell phone suddenly rang.

She suddenly had a bad feeling when she saw the unfamiliar caller ID. Without thinking, she avoided the two people in the office and walked to the window to answer the call.

"Shen Yin, it's me."

Shen Yin looked blankly out of the window, at the people coming and going from the police station. She knew the voice on the phone all too well. She had once treated her as a close friend, but she was afraid that the enmity between them was about to deepen.

"Yun Shan, what's the matter?"

Yun Shan took a deep breath and blew out a smoke ring. "Shen Yin, I didn't expect you to be so brave. After what happened back then, you still gave birth to that child of unknown origin!"
