Chapter 188

The vigil and funeral will continue, but the sorrow will remain forever; however, Old Song and Song Zuer did not grieve for long.

Perhaps they had already grieved long ago; here, after Old Song buried his wife, he went to handle work.

Song Zuer solidified her own thoughts: the greatest love for her mother is to work well, live well, and study well.

It is that simple.

A new day arrived; after the program briefly paused broadcasting, everyone got a breather, and these trainees adjusted their emotions to continue their own jobs.

Old Liu held a notebook and said, "Currently, your scores require you to step up. I'll tell you some bad news: today, I will eliminate one person."

Eliminate?

That is certainly not good news.

Everyone was very confused, and the director was also shocked.

"The one I am eliminating now is Cheng Ruofei."

Cheng Ruofei instantly froze, looking at Old Liu, very confused.

She then looked at her own scores; it shouldn't be this way, she had done very well.

Old Liu handed a document to Cheng Ruofei and said, "Here, your new job. Congratulations, you have been admitted by the Forensic Medicine College; you can continue your forensic work, and it will be of an academic nature."

"Me?"

Old Liu said, "Yes, doing forensics, doing academia—I have always supported it. This is also your teacher's thought. Academia needs people to do it, and forensic scenes need people to go out to them; these are all very important. So, you don't need to keep staring at the scene side; actually, we never intended to keep you in the first place."

"Your talent is not suitable here. We need you to research and produce more literature for us, to create more articles that can help many forensic experts. We forensic experts help others, and you help us forensic experts."

Several people nearby clapped one after another. Cheng Ruofei, moved with tears in her eyes, said, "Thank you, Teacher."

"Do it well. I also want to see you in the future, showing your brilliance at the Forensic Conference. By then, I can brag outside: 'Such an excellent person, I once taught.'"

In the observation room, Teacher He said, "I didn't expect it wasn't a dismissal, but rather obtaining her own job."

Qin Ming said, "Cheng Ruofei was sent over by her teacher. This child is absolutely top-tier in academia. You know, the number one graduate school applicant is definitely a promising scholar; such large-scale academic research is absolutely no problem for her, and now she also has scene experience, so her future articles will be even more brilliant."

Hu Ge said, "Is it that kind, like the Chinese Academy of Sciences?"

Qin Ming said, "Uh, about that, but we are just forensic experts, not comparable to the Chinese Academy of Sciences. However, the general meaning is like that; large-scale research really needs people to do it."

Song Zuer said, "But I see Teacher Liu still has documents in his hand over there."

Qin Ming froze and said, "It can't be?"

It can't be?

Here, Old Liu looked with disgust at Chen Fan, who was yawning in the distance, and said, "You, come here."

"What for?"

"For you: First-Class Merit, and your medal. By the way, your position has been promoted. Your score accumulation is a bit high, so we promoted you."

Good heavens, Chen Fan got promoted?

"Junior Technical Professional. Hmm, according to the police officer ranking system, you would be considered a Third-Class Police Supervisor."

Chen Fan said, "Just tell me, who am I on the same level as?"

"Same level as Old Song; both are captain-type roles, but one rank below Li Tian."

"Tch, a bit small, not interesting."

Old Liu got a bit angry, looking at Chen Fan. Chen Fan immediately became serious and said, "I will absolutely do my own job well. Thank you, leader, for your cultivation, although what I have obtained now has nothing to do with you, the leader."

Pfft, hahahaha.

All gloom swept away; in this initial workplace, having Chen Fan was truly a happiness in the human world. When those cases made everyone feel bad, Chen Fan could always make everyone laugh at critical moments, forgetting those bad pasts.

Qin Ming was speechless and said, "Chen Fan got promoted too. Damn it."

Here, Teacher He said, "Ah, is there an explanation for this?"

"Generally, forensic experts have no professional titles, but positions are promoted based on professionalism or case accumulation. There are three levels: junior, intermediate, and senior. Senior is basically the ceiling; for example, Old Liu has reached the ceiling."

"If one reaches the ceiling, what treatment is it based on?"

"Hall-level treatment. But Old Liu is special talent, so his treatment is even better. This has always been a tradition within our police system. Forensic experts, such talent, must be treated well; treatment is always prioritized."

Here, Li Tian pushed the door open and walked in, saying, "Yes, when the unit distributes apples, they are given to you forensic experts first, worrying you won't eat well. Pity, this job truly isn't something normal people can do."

Here, several people were speechless.

Can this even be envied?

Why does it feel like Li Tian is insulting people?

Old Liu said, "What's the matter?"

"We need you forensic experts to help out. Hmm, how to put it? You'll know once you get to the scene. By the way, get ready."

Several people, full of doubt, followed Li Tian and left.

When they arrived at the scene, it was a bit unbearable; the cameraman here, looking at the situation before him, almost collapsed.

Li Tian said, "You see, only you can be found for this kind of thing."

Old Liu was speechless and said, "You really can find us some work. Stop standing there stunned; without Cheng Ruofei, everyone, step up and work hard."

Chen Fan, holding a bag here, said, "Everyone move aside, move aside, make way. I'm going to bag the corpse."

Everyone watched Chen Fan walk forward calmly.

Villagers from all around gathered to watch. Old Liu coughed, signaling Chen Fan here to watch his image; he couldn't just do whatever he wanted.

Chen Fan placed pieces one by one into the bag.

Don't even think about the particularly shattered parts; the unshattered ones, just bag them up.

Xiang Qinqin's nose twitched, and she said, "I smell the scent of alcohol."

Chen Fan said, "I smell it too?"

Old Liu looked at the two and said, "Xiang Qinqin, what you are holding in your hand is a stomach."

Instantly, the villagers watching the spectacle from all around ran away. Damn it, that's too disgusting.

The audience was completely speechless.

Zhang Xinyu stared fixedly at Song Zuer beside her.

Song Zuer said, "Ah, sis, what's wrong?"

"Aren't you disgusted?"

"Not disgusted at all. When I was little, my dad was busy, so I'd do my homework at the police station. I'd occasionally see these things, and after a long time, I just got used to it."

Holy crap.

Chen Fan finished arranging the corpse and said, "Alright, shall we head back?"

Li Tian glanced around and said, "Nothing unexpected. Let's head back first."

Old Liu coughed, and Li Tian instantly understood. He said, "You guys head back first. I'll take another look here—there's a commotion over there. Let me see what's going on. You all go handle the corpses first."

Back at the forensic side, the group piled the corpses together.

Chen Fan said, "Teacher, what is this?"

"The worst possible result. This person wasn't killed by being hit by a car—they were crushed to death."

The group didn't quite understand.

Qin Ming in the observation room froze, as if he had thought of something.

Old Liu said, "Let's reassemble the body first, everyone look into the cause of death."

?????

Teacher He asked Qin Ming, "Could the cause of death not be the car accident?"

"No. In a normal car accident, there should be fresh blood in front of the car. But with this car, the fresh blood is underneath it, which means the person had already fallen by the roadside."

"You mean to say?"

"We can't determine yet whether it was homicide or death from drinking—that can only be judged after the autopsy is complete."
