Gu Yin left right after the night revision class but since she helped her deskmate answer a question, she was slightly delayed. At the entrance of the school, she saw Gu Mang getting into a car.
The car belonged to the man who had attended the parent-teacher meeting with Gu Mang. He was very dashing but his car was very plain looking.
“Young lady, what are you looking at?” The chauffeur opened the car door and saw Gu Yin staring in the distance so he asked curiously.
She retracted her gaze as her lips curled upwards mockingly. She bent down as she got into the Lei family’s posh car. “Let’s go.”
The chauffeur replied respectfully, “Sure.”
…
Twenty minutes later, Lu Chengzhou’s car arrived at the police station and members of the vice squad were waiting at the entrance.
Seeing Gu Mang getting out of the car, an officer strode towards her. “Ms. Gu.”
“Wu Luo.” Gu Mang nodded at him and followed him inside with her hands in her pocket. She asked insipidly, “What’s the situation?”
Lu Chengzhou followed alongside her.
“A homicide case involving a young master from a wealthy family who died all of a sudden. He did not have any injuries and we suspect that he died from acupuncture. However, there aren’t many people who are experts in acupuncture. They investigated for half of the day but to no avail. Our Department Chief was having a meal with Boss Lu and he recommended that we talk to you,” said Wu Luo incredulously.
Gu Mang did not respond and merely frowned.
Wu Luo chuckled. “I thought I would never meet Ms. Gu again. Little did I know that this case would bring us together again.”
Lu Chengzhou shot a complicated side glance at Gu Mang. Lu Yī also looked at the girl in uniform with surprise. Was her acupuncture so formidable that it was on par with those from the vice squad?
Gu Mang leisurely walked up two steps before pushing her cap up. “Let’s have a look first.”
Wu Luo nodded. They headed towards the autopsy room. The victim’s identity was so sensitive that the vice squad took special precautions befitting an important case. Lu Shangjin and the Department Chief would usually not come to a place like this. However, since Gu Mang came over, the two big shots of Ming City came as well and were waiting outside the autopsy room. Gu Mang politely greeted them.
The group looking at Gu Mang was shocked and left speechless. Boss Lu said he would reunite with his old colleague and it turned out to be this girl? Ming City High School’s Year Three uniform?!
Lu Shangjin took a step forward. “Gu Mang, sorry to trouble you tonight. Please help Department Chief Yan find out what is going on.”
Department Chief Yan returned to his senses and smiled. “Sorry to trouble you, Ms. Gu.”
As the new Department Chief, all he knew about the person whom Lu Shangjin looked for this time was that she was a colleague who used to work in the forensic unit and that she had quite a reputation. He did not expect the colleague to be a high schooler. Moreover, when he saw how respectful Lu Shangjin was to the girl, he was appalled.
“Will try my best.” Gu Mang nodded. Before heading into the autopsy room, she paused to look at Lu Chengzhou. “Wait for me.”
Lu Chengzhou smiled warmly and nodded. The corner of the girl’s lips curled upwards. Although it was a casual smile, it was mixed with a hint of wickedness.
The name tag of the female pathologist on duty tonight said ’Lü Xin.’
She recognized Gu Mang right away as the female lead in the wildly popular MV by Sheng Ting. She looked even better in person than on television. Her aura was very strong.
When Boss Lu mentioned this young lady to the department chief, he mentioned that she worked in the police forensic unit for a year. The evidence that she found on corpses helped the vice squad to solve many odd cases.
Not only was she attentive to details, she had an extraordinarily retentive memory and her medical skills were fantastic.
When Lü Xin first joined the forensic unit she heard that there used to be an exceptional forensic pathologist before her.
