Chapter 14 - Chapter 14: Please Keep This Confidential for Us!

At this moment, in the autopsy room, Zhang Feng was sitting cross-legged on the ground.

The gas on his body was flowing around.

It didn't take long before he opened his eyes.

A look of surprise clearly appeared in his eyes:

"As expected! As long as I uncover the truth of a case, I will get a considerable spiritual qi reward. Is this a trait of this world?"

And because of this, Zhang Feng suddenly felt that the profession of a forensic doctor he took on after crossing over wasn't bad at all!

It seems that in the future, I'll have to find ways to help the precinct solve more cases.

Not for the precinct's performance, but so I can train and return to my previous cultivation level before crossing over.

Maybe if I research the Celestial Master's way a bit more, I could cross back over?

But at this time, Lin Rui's cautious voice came from outside the autopsy room:

"Officer Hu, why are you here again?"

Hearing this voice, Zhang Feng paused slightly, a bad feeling emerging in his heart.

He quickly went to the door, opened it, and walked out.

As expected, Lin Rui was frowning, looking at Officer Hu who was dragged over once again by Hu Huixin.

Officer Hu looked at Lin Rui with a peculiar expression, not knowing how to explain.

But Hu Huixin jumped up and loudly said:

"Director Lin! You all have overlooked something!"

Lin Rui hesitated slightly:

"What do you mean?"

Hu Huixin excitedly said:

"Did you forget that your autopsy room has an independent surveillance camera?"

Hearing Hu Huixin's words, both Zhang Feng and Lin Rui had a slight moment of unease internally.

Did Lin Rui just run into Officer Hu and his daughter?

No way...

Hu Huixin actually thought of this?

Lin Rui probably hadn't had time to alter the surveillance footage yet?

Zhang Feng directed a hesitant look towards Lin Rui.

Sure enough, he found Lin Rui's face stern as she said gravely:

"Officer Hu, I don't understand what you mean."

"Director Lin, are you still pretending?" Hu Huixin looked at Lin Rui's clearly tense expression, feeling even more sure and satisfied internally.

"You and Zhang Feng were just acting in front of me and my dad!"

"Your autopsy room's independent surveillance definitely recorded the fight between Zhang Feng and that corpse!"

Listening to Hu Huixin, Zhang Feng and Lin Rui's eyes slightly narrowed. Is this going to be exposed?

Lin Rui solemnly said:

"Officer Hu, you can talk nonsense about food but not about such things!"

"Our forensic doctors fighting with corpses? Are you saying the corpse became sentient?"

"Then are we forensic doctors or mages? Hmm?"

Even though he knew Lin Rui was saying this for Hu Huixin to hear.

Zhang Feng still couldn't help but have his eye twitch.

Damn Mage...

But Hu Huixin was still confident, saying:

"Still acting?"

"How about this, since you won't admit it, let's just go look at your autopsy room's independent surveillance to check, okay?"

"What?!" Hearing Hu Huixin, Lin Rui's reaction was evidently more intense, with an even more serious tone:

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

"The surveillance in our autopsy room can only be viewed by non-forensic personnel if there is documentation from higher up!"

"Do you have a command from above to view the surveillance now?"

"Or do you want me to illegally allow access to the surveillance?"

Although Lin Rui was stating facts, Hu Huixin showed little emotional change.

Compared to directives from above, the supernatural event was much more frightening!

Instead, it fueled Hu Huixin's internal excitement, saying:

"Director Lin, are you so nervous because you're afraid we'll see something we shouldn't?"

Then she even turned to her father and said:

"Dad, as the head of criminal investigation, you naturally have the right to view forensic autopsy surveillance!"

"Do you see? She's so nervous now, she must have a secret! Dad, trust me, check their surveillance!"

"No! Absolutely not!"

Lin Rui decisively refused.

Officer Hu wanted to scold his daughter, as he had the right to check, but couldn't exercise this right without special circumstances.

However, Lin Rui's abnormal behavior had Officer Hu frowning slightly too.

Zhang Feng stood behind, feeling speechless!

Wow, doesn't your reaction just scream "there is no silver here"?

If you were a bit calmer like usual, there wouldn't be misunderstandings, and maybe you could get away with it!

Zhang Feng shook his head slightly, as if to say, "This woman's acting skills still need improvement!"

Just as Zhang Feng thought.

Because of Lin Rui's abnormal behavior, Officer Hu hesitated for a moment before saying:

"Forensic Doctor Lin, may I check the surveillance of your autopsy room?"

Hearing these words, Lin Rui narrowed her eyes slightly and said to Officer Hu:

"Officer Hu, do you really want to investigate us forensic doctors? Do you not trust us?"

"No no no no no!" Wow, when Officer Hu heard this, how had this already escalated to a trust issue?

We are colleagues in the same unit, and there are only two forensic doctors in the precinct.

If the forensic department and criminal investigations have a trust crisis, it could lead to big issues!

Not to mention, Forensic Doctor Lin still had this kind of aura.

She even made Officer Hu nervous.

Despite the awkwardness, Officer Hu squeezed out a smile and said to Lin Rui:

"Forensic Doctor Lin, isn't this... a special situation? So..."

Listening to Officer Hu, Lin Rui showed a troubled expression.

She turned to take a look at Zhang Feng.

This look made Zhang Feng completely baffled.

And continued:

"Since Officer Hu insists on watching, then... fine, please follow me."

Saying this, she really turned and prepared to lead Officer Hu and his daughter upstairs to check the surveillance.

"Director Lin, you..."

Zhang Feng spoke with a hint of urgency, making Officer Hu and his daughter turn to look at Zhang Feng.

Especially Hu Huixin, whose face was full of excitement and confidence.

She patted her father and gave a look, clearly saying:

"If they really had no secrets, why be so nervous?"

But the plan was set, Zhang Feng had no choice.

The four of them squeezed into this small surveillance room.

Hu Huixin seemed a bit too enthusiastic, crossing her arms and saying crisply:

"Director Lin, please rewind the surveillance footage to the start of the autopsy."

Lin Rui glanced deeply at Hu Huixin.

She actually spoke again:

"Are you sure you want to see it?"

Officer Hu hadn't spoken yet, but Hu Huixin answered immediately:

"Of course!"

"Alright."

Lin Rui's voice had a resigned tone as she continued:

"You can watch it, but!"

"No matter what you see next, I hope you can keep it a secret for me and Zhang Feng!"

As the word "secret" was mentioned, Officer Hu's heart rate inevitably increased slightly.

They really have a secret!

Even Zhang Feng started to get nervous.

Was his secret of the reanimated corpse about to be discovered by his detective colleagues?!

Lin Rui had already begun operating the surveillance footage, rewinding to before the autopsy started.

And what appeared on the screen made Officer Hu suddenly gasp sharply!
