Early December.
Winter has arrived as expected, and you can no longer see gray, black, and white stockings on the street.
In the warm garage, Lu Chuan started his new day of work by starting up the Cayenne.
It’s been a week since returning from Binzhou, and Lu Chuan’s work and life have finally returned to normal.
The truth hidden behind the murder case of Song Kun has finally co to light.
You could say this was a major case, and they achieved brilliant results.
As the publicity departnt put it, the Provincial Departnt has solved a cross-regional case, extrely vile in nature, with exceedingly secretive thods, committed by extrely ruthless perpetrators.
According to the leaders, under the guidance of the Provincial Departnt’s criminal investigation experts, with the strong support of leaders from both Haizhou and Binzhou, and the joint efforts of public security forces from both places,
the task force solved a major and complicated case involving many people, spreading over a long period, with various circumstances, a wide area, and hidden thods of operation.
As Liu Guodong put it, back from a business trip...
In early winter, Haizhou City welcod its first snowfall of the year, turning the entire world into a white wonderland.
Shen Yan ntioned during her WeChat chat with Lu Chuan yesterday that she likes snowy days.
The whole world is white, as if there’s no darkness in the world.
Lu Chuan was a bit sleepy at the ti and didn’t quite agree with Forensic Doctor Shen’s sentints.
After all, a forensic doctor... that seems a bit too romantic.
8:20 AM, downstairs of Forensic Doctor Shen’s place.
"Here, my mom made these buns."
Lu Chuan wasn’t sure what it ant for a girl to give him buns, but refusing would certainly be rude.
Besides, the buns slled quite good.
Just like Shen Yan in her white down jacket.
"What’s the filling?"
Taking a bite, Lu Chuan asked as he ate.
Fastening her seatbelt, Shen Yan handed Lu Chuan a tissue: "Pork and scallion, tasty, right?"
Forensic Doctor Shen usually drives to work by herself, but as winter arrived, the roads were icy and slippery. During their chat last night, Shen Yan expressed her fear of getting into a car accident, so Lu Chuan ca to pick her up.
Upstairs, watching the Cayenne drive away in the snow, Old Shen had a sowhat indescribable expression on his face.
Like a cat whose ho was stolen.
anwhile, Shen Yan’s mother had a broad smile, clearly satisfied with the situation downstairs.
What’s there to be dissatisfied about?
Young, just started work for less than half a year, and already awarded a third-class personal rit.
Recently, she’s on the verge of receiving a second-class personal rit.
"What’s with your expression?"
Turning around, Shen Yan’s mother, putting on her coat to go out, noticed the changing expression on Old Shen’s face: "At what age did you earn a second-class rit?"
"I..."
Old Shen, a bit sullen, left the balcony silently and hesitantly.
He took a deep breath and quietly put on his down jacket.
At tis like this, silence is golden; speaking less keeps you in a good mood all day, not a bad deal.
Ninety-nine percent of life’s troubles co from the tongue.
Before understanding this principle, Old Shen had suffered quite a bit.
Now, with age cos experience, and his mindset has beco more peaceful.
It’s just that the last ti Lu Chuan ca to pick up his daughter, he seed to be driving a sports car.
This ti, it was a different one.
But thinking about the Qiangsheng Group...
Alright, next ti at the eting, he’ll have more complaints, maybe they’ll donate more.
In the car, Shen Yan and Lu Chuan were chatting happily.
"I have so good news, do you want to hear it?"
Mystery-filled Shen Yan, her eyes smiling like a crescent moon, made Lu Chuan feel delighted.
"What’s the good news?"
Whether in work, life, or conversations, you always need to know how to react.
Lu Chuan seed to excel in this regard.
"Hmm..." Tilting her head, Shen Yan dragged out the tone: "Treat to dinner and I’ll tell you."
"No problem, how about tonight?"
When there’s no case, whether it’s a forensic doctor or a cri scene investigation, no overti is usually required.
So, they both had plenty of ti in the evening.
Shen Yan evidently received the reaction she wanted from Lu Chuan and happily agreed: "Okay."
"I heard from my dad that your award has co out."
"Ah? What award?"
"The human skin case we discovered at the art exhibition, Zhang Zixuan."
"Oh..."
Lu Chuan nearly forgot about it; speaking of which, he’d been busy with many cases recently, right after the human skin case ca the Song Kun case.
Then there was the business trip to Binzhou, taking up almost a month.
"What award?"
Lu Chuan heard from Liu Guodong that Qin Yong was trying to secure a third-class personal rit for him.
But whether it would be approved was uncertain at the ti, and there wasn’t much confidence.
"Second-class rit."
Screech!
The sharp sound of tires against the ground penetrated through the double-layered laminated glass of the Cayenne, reaching inside through the solid, heavy, and expensive chassis.
Unprepared, Shen Yan was securely held in place by the three-point seatbelt with pre-tension function, forming a beautiful, particularly prominent curve.
"Second-class rit?!"
Lu Chuan’s voice changed.
The human skin case was indeed no small matter—one life involved, the circumstances extrely vile, and it had a significant impact.
Lu Chuan was one of the discoverers of the case and provided crucial leads during the cri scene investigation and trace inspection, contributing to the eventual solving of the case. Still, getting a second-class rit was quite surprising.
Qin Yong had initially aid for rely a third-class personal rit for him.
This was considering Lu Chuan’s recent performance, where he made significant contributions in several minor cases, prompting the attempt.
Shen Yan released the seatbelt and buckled it again, noted by Lu Chuan’s slightly dazed gaze: "It’s not just because of the last case. According to my dad, this reward also accounts for the Song Kun case and your contributions with the Provincial Departnt task force in Binzhou."
"The eting was held just yesterday morning. The team should receive the news today."
So, it was a combined reward for the three cases.
Even so, it was a pleasant surprise for Lu Chuan.
A second-class personal rit, just thinking about it was exciting.
Starting the vehicle again, Lu Chuan instinctively glanced at Shen Yan’s upper body: "Sorry about that sudden stop, didn’t hurt you, did it?"
Shen Yan shook her head: "No, the seatbelt held ."
Their conversation seed a bit off; Shen Yan seed to notice too, her face blushing slightly.
Lu Chuan quickly shifted his attention: "Oh right, the Zhang Zixuan case at the art exhibition was discovered by us together; you should have a reward too, right?"
The last case was first noticed by Shen Yan, spotting the issue with the girl in the wheat field artwork.
Later, she contributed significantly to solving the case too.
Sure enough, Shen Yan nodded: "Thanks to you, I received a comndatory notice this ti."
Forensic Doctor Shen gained her first comndation after two years in the force, her eyes filled with excitent, gesturing joyously.
Lu Chuan kept shifting his gaze between looking forward and at Shen Yan.
