Nov. 2, 11:40 p.m.

Inside the police station, as it had been two months ago, the autopsy department was still lit up, and the staff were still concentrating on their work. It's one of the few departments that is still functioning, and even in the dead of night, no sound can be heard in the entire police station.

"Is the investigation complete?"

"She was a widow. ”

"What about the children?"

"The son died a long time ago, and the daughter was buried just a few days ago, also because of parasites. ”

"A poor man, too. ”

"Who's to say it isn't. ”

The two members of the department were talking to each other and whispering about the elderly female corpse lying on the autopsy bed.

"Otherwise, just leave her there. ”

One of the members surnamed Luo suggested in a low voice.

"But it's not ...... yet"

Another member of the Ye sex department just wanted to say the word "check", but saw his partner make a silent gesture.

"Don't let the outside one hear!" the first member whispered. "I see, let's hurry up and fool around. ”

"I know, but isn't it going to be good......"

"I've had enough of working overtime, haven't you too?"

"Of course, I'm ...... too"

"What are you hesitating about, you think, this is out of respect for the dead. She's just a person who died in an ordinary accident, and there's no reason for us to be examined like this or that, right?"

"Respect for the Dead......"

"It's kind of for someone from the autopsy department to say this kind of thing, but you know what I mean, right?"

The other party thought about it for a while, and finally nodded.

"Is that in Room D?"

"Yes, Room D. ”

"What is Room D for?"

It so happened that their words were heard by another young member who came over, and he asked a little strangely.

"Room D is a special burial room for unclaimed corpses, don't ask this kind of question next time, the form over there is clearly written, if you want to know, go and see for yourself. ”

The middle-aged man surnamed Huang walked in from outside, and there was still a faint smell of smoke on his body, and at this time, the member surnamed Luo and his partner were pushing the elderly female corpse outward.

"Got it?"

He glanced nonchalantly at the female corpse.

"Hmmm......"

As he spoke, one of them hurriedly pushed the body out. Their submissive appearance did not arouse the suspicion of the middle-aged surnamed Huang, and at this time, the group of people on the other side also stood up and stretched.

"Have you collected your sample for thirty-eight?"

"Hmm. ”

"That's all for today, and don't forget to send the report when you leave. ”

Before the words could be finished, there was a joyful cheer in the office, one of the few days in the month when they did not return home at dawn. As they cleaned up their offices, they began to discuss after-hours.

"I want to go drinking, is there anyone with me?"

"How about just going to the other side? I haven't been there for a long time, and I kind of miss the grilled gluten there. ”

"I think it's good, too. ”

"Then go to the other side. ”

The members of the department walked in groups down the dimly lit corridor and began to discuss the arrangements for the after-hours.

"Hey, my voice is softer, Sister Li hasn't gotten off work yet. ”

The middle-aged man surnamed Huang, who was walking in the front, turned his head and made a silent gesture.

"Why hasn't she left work yet?"

"Of course it's overtime, do you think it's the hardest work in our autopsy department?"

"She's really dedicated. ”

"It's Sister Li. ”

After the noise passed, the police station was quiet again.

Juli sat on the edge of the table, her head bowed, sorting through known clues, and she and her assistant went through the possible options one by one, and finally locked the location to the last few places with red circles.

"Sister Li, I've got it here. ”

"I'm fine on my side. ”

"So-"

"Well, thank you. ”

Juli rubbed her hand on her shoulder, moving her stiff neck, and she stood up, her whole body making a crisp clicking sound from the long period of meditation.

"It's so nice, I haven't had a day off!"

The assistant said tiredly.

"I really hope that this kind of work can be finished soon, but it's so annoying to work overtime all the time. Juli took out the mirror in the small bag very melancholy, and stroked the corners of her beautiful eyes while looking at her face in the mirror, inadvertently, showing a distressed and charming look. "Look, am I getting old?"

"Don't take a picture of Sister Li, you look good no matter what. ”

The assistant walked over and packed up the last stack of papers.

"Well, who was making a noise outside? I remember that it was only the guys from the autopsy department who worked overtime with us at this point, right?"

"It's the autopsy guys. ”

"Are they really them? They're off work too?"

"Well, I ran into them when I went to the bathroom just now, saying that I was going to the barbecue restaurant opposite. But before they left, they sent the report over. ”

The assistant hands over the printed report.

Juli flipped through and frowned.

"I heard Huang say that there were a total of seven dead this time, why only the autopsy reports of six of them?"

"Like this?"

The assistant leaned over and took a look.

"There are only six of them. ”

"Probably, one of the bodies just fell to his death, so-"

"So they didn't do an autopsy?"

"I guess so. ”

The assistant untied his tie and folded it into his bag, and he could tell that Juri was a little angry.

"This is too lax, how can this be?"

"Why don't I call them back when I get back?" ”

“...... Forget it, and go back and settle accounts with them. ”

She sighed, picked up her pen and began to review the six autopsy reports.

"Sister Nali, I'll go back first. ”

"Let's go back. ”

Juli shook the report in her hand. The assistant picked up his bag, pushed open the door and walked out.

"Stay safe. ”

"You too. ”

At 00:15 a.m., Juri finally finished reading the report, she put it in her bag with her file bag, and took off the coat hanging from the back of her chair and draped it over her body. She walked out of the small door of the police station (the gate was closed), crossed the street and turned into the first corner, which was different from the road she usually took when she got off work, and she usually turned the other way at the next corner.

After turning the corner, she made her way down the sidewalk, and her skillful appearance showed that she had been to this place. She walked under the telephone pole at the mouth of the alley, waited there for a while, and saw someone coming out of it in the distant light. Juli looked at her intently, confirmed that it was the girl, and waved at her.

Lu Ling showed a very helpless look on her face, she was wearing a frog-patterned peaked cap and a black down vest.

"You're getting off work so early. ”

"Isn't that impossible?"

Juli shrugged and sighed helplessly. Lu Ling led her towards her rental room.

"You don't have to take off your shoes, just step in. ”

Lu Ling stood at the entrance and took off her shoes, and drilled into it without looking back.

"That's not good, are there shoe covers?"

"In the cupboard at the door. ”

"In the cupboard...... Hey, no!"

"It's so troublesome. Lu Ling had no choice but to walk out with a frown, using a flashlight to hit the dim cabinet, and pulled out a pair of shoe covers that were clustered together out of nowhere. "Put it on. ”

After putting on her shoe covers, Juli walked in and looked at the neatly organized living room.

"Not bad!"

"It's not the first time I've been here, and I said it last time. ”

"You remember. ”

She pulled a file out of her bag and placed it on a glass coffee table.

"This is the autopsy report. ”

Lu Ling walked over with the water, and couldn't help but roll her eyes when she saw the bulging file bag.

"You're going to let me see something complicated like this?"

"How?"

Juli, who is used to looking at various indicators at work, looked at Lu Ling with some doubts.

"To be honest, I have a headache when I see those autopsy indicators. ”

"It's not that you can't read it, right? But I remember that your father taught you how to read this kind of report, right?"

"So that's what I want now—" Lu Ling pointed to the clock hanging there in a somewhat broken heart. "At half past twelve in the morning, why did you run outside and blow a cold wind to pick up you, the stupid eldest sister who forgot the key?

"Okay, okay, my sister knows you're working hard. ”

Juri sank into the couch and stretched.

"You just tell me. ”

"This is a summary of all previous analyses of parasitic species, and it is certain that the series of parasitic species that appear here should be from the same mother. ”

"Is the supply unified? This is not bad news. ”

Lu Ling said lightly.

"This is a place that hasn't been investigated yet, and if nothing else, the mother body should be hiding here. ”

Juli handed over the map in her hand.

"Northbridge?"

"Yes, it's Northbridge. ”

"It's really the easiest place to overlook, and we'll check it out tomorrow. ”

"Where's the pauliba?"

"Go to work. ”

Lu Ling hesitated for half a second when she answered.

"Let's not talk about it, can you let me take a hot shower?"

"The water has already been boiled, but there is no clothes for you to wear. ”

As she spoke, she went back to her room to find toiletries such as bath towels and threw them over.

"Yes, I'd probably be strangled to death if I slept in your clothes. ”

Juli looked at the girl who was one size smaller than herself, and said to herself. Lu Ling happened to come out with a bath towel, and when she heard this, she rolled her eyes unceremoniously.

"It's okay, my clothes aren't that dirty. ”

Juli smiled and changed into slippers, took the bath towel, and reached out to touch the girl's head.

"I was going to give you a room, but it looks like you'd better sleep on the couch. ”

"Sister knows you're joking. ”

She had locked the bathroom door as she said this, and the sound of the shower rang out.

"Remember to bring the key next time, or you'll be sleeping on the streets!"

Lu Ling stood outside the bathroom and said angrily.

"Oh-"

Juli's perfunctory answer came out vaguely with the sound of water.
