I became the police station's darling after I could understand what the furry creature was sayi

"How do you know it tastes different? Didn't you say you threw your dad into the water tower not long after he died?"

Li Feng seized upon the loophole in his words.

"My mom! When my mom died, the coffin was left at home for several days. The weather was already hot, and the refrigerated coffin wasn't very effective. Anyway, it smelled awful. The old man didn't want to bury her and insisted on keeping it for seven days before sending her to the crematorium..."

As Jin Qing spoke, she pursed her lips and twitched her nose, as if recalling the taste from that time, her face filled with disgust.

Li Feng was speechless when he saw Jin Qing's expression.

What terrible sins did Jin's parents commit in their past lives to have such an unfilial son as Jin Qing in this life?

Li Feng moved his lips, about to continue asking questions.

A 'ding' sound.

The elevator doors opened, and a mother and child stepped out.

The woman was carrying several bags, while the boy, who looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old, was carrying a large snakeskin bag on his shoulder.

The woman stepped out of the elevator and turned to talk to her son behind her.

"Since it's still winter break, you should spend more time with your classmates. Don't worry about me, I can manage on my own."

"Mom, I..."

The boy's view was partially blocked by the snakeskin bag. He turned his head and was about to speak when he caught a glimpse of the police officers and Nan Shu and the others standing in the corridor. The rest of his words got stuck in his throat.

The woman noticed and looked in the direction of the group. Her gaze fell on Jin Qing, who was lying on the ground. Her expression changed slightly, and she frowned, as if she had seen some kind of infectious source.

She reached out and pulled her son along, quickly walking towards the other side of the corridor.

The boy stumbled slightly from the tugging, glanced at Jin Qing, then at Nan Shu, his young and inexperienced face revealing an undisguised guilty conscience.

His eyes accidentally met Nan Shu's. The boy quickly lowered his head and followed his mother into the house.

"Xiao Nan, do you know that boy?"

Li Feng also noticed the boy's gaze. It wasn't the look of someone who had fallen in love with a girl at first sight; it was more like the expression of someone who had done something wrong and was afraid of being exposed.

"Um…"

Nan Shu looked away. "I ran into you at a bar earlier, just a brief encounter."

The boy was the follower of the woman who had hit on him, and the woman was probably the boy's mother. Based on what they had just said, the boy was most likely still in school and his family was not well-off.

"What?! You went to a bar? When? And you didn't even call me!"

Nan Shu: ...

Is this the point?
"How can this not be the point?"

Nan Shu accidentally blurted out her true feelings, and Li Feng retorted with his hands on his hips.

Nan Shu pinched her brow, feeling a headache coming on. She glanced at the two police officers beside her and Jin Qing, whose teeth were chattering after being splashed with a bucket of cold water, and reminded Li Feng, "Brother Li, we're investigating a case."

"Oh…"

Seeing that he had succeeded, Li Feng turned to the two police officers and said, "Could you please help me take this person to the branch office?"

The two nodded in agreement, each taking one side of Jin Qing and dragging her toward the elevator.

Li Feng then turned to Zhang Liang and asked, "Have you packed everything? You should be able to hail a taxi by yourself, right? You don't need anyone to take you, do you?"

Zhang Liang nodded.

"Alright, let's go then." Li Feng waved his hand, looking unfriendly.

Zhang Liang: ...

"Xiao Nan, then I..."

"Well, pay attention to safety on the road."

Nan Shu smiled and gave her instructions.

Zhang Liang agreed, stuffed the teddy bear into his breast pocket, dragged his two suitcases, and headed for the elevator. Li Feng turned back: "What's the bar called? Was it fun? Did you meet any rich women or anything?"

Nan Shu: ...

"It's alright, not very fun, no rich women..."

As Nan Shu spoke, she walked towards the stairs, and Li Feng followed.

Neither of them noticed that the curtains in the window at the end of the corridor moved quickly.

"Xiaowen, what are you looking at? Mind your own business, wash up and go to bed. School starts in a few days. Have you packed your luggage? What about your train ticket? Check the time, or you'll be in a panic."

My mother's nagging came from behind me, accompanied by the sound of a snakeskin bag being turned over.

The boy called Xiaowen absentmindedly said "Oh," and then couldn't help but ask his mother, "Mom, what are all those policemen doing? Was that Jin Qing just now? What did he do wrong?"

I couldn't help but think, "So that girl is a police officer? She's already working, but she looks so young..."

At the same time, I'm glad that I didn't say anything at the bar that day. I hope she won't come over and complain to his mother.

"Why do you care about him? Xiaowen's mother doesn't have high expectations for you, nor does she expect you to be very successful. Just don't be like Jin Qing, who is a parasite on society."

The boy didn't know much about Jin Qing, and although he moved his lips, he ultimately didn't refute anything.

……

Jin Qing confessed a lot, but whether everything he said is true is still unknown. The specifics need to be determined together with the autopsy report.

Overall, things went very smoothly. When Nan Shu got home, it was already 2 a.m. When she came out of the bathroom, Tie Gun was still in the same position as before, lying straight on the bedside table.

It's like a rock hard stick.

Nan Shu reached out and poked its head. The iron rod's vertical pupils shrank suddenly, and it stared at Nan Shu without moving, looking utterly hopeless.

Its sense of smell is more acute than that of humans, and it still hasn't recovered from that smell.

It is now a snake without a soul.

Nan Shu chuckled, letting it lie there as long as it could, then finished drying her hair and went to bed.

Tie Gun'er gave her a resentful look, and then, just as Nan Shu was about to fall asleep, he shuffled over to Tie Hanhan's side, found the warmest spot, and lay down peacefully.

Iron-headed fool: ...

The next day.

Nan Shu arrived at the branch office feeling refreshed. As soon as she entered the case-handling hall, she smelled a very strong aroma of cilantro.

My colleagues came and went, all carrying this smell, making the whole office building seem to be permeated with the aroma of cilantro.

Nan Shu always orders cilantro when she eats hot pot, but even she finds the strong smell a bit overwhelming.

Push open the door to Nan Punian's office.

"elder brother."

Nan Punian sat in his chair looking pale and frowning. The office window was wide open, and the smell of cilantro was still incredibly strong.

Seeing Nan Shu, Nan Punian finally regained some of his energy.

"Xiao Shu..."

As soon as Nan Punian opened his mouth, the smell of cilantro seemed to rush into his lungs through his throat. Nan Punian immediately closed his mouth, looking like he was about to vomit, and handed the report in his hand to Nan Shu, indicating that she should take a look.

Nan Shu took it; it was a preliminary autopsy report, the paper still warm from the printer.

A quick scan confirmed that the deceased was indeed Jin Qin, and the cause of death was a physiological illness.

As to whether, as Jin Qing said, Jin's father died naturally in his sleep, rather than from a disease attack caused by some kind of stimulation or drug, we still need to wait for the relevant toxicology report.

"Brother, are you okay?"

Nan Shu handed the report back to Nan Punian, and turning her head, she saw Nan Punian hugging a trash can, looking like he was about to vomit. (End of this chapter)
