Chapter 843: The Two Miserable Sisters

~7 min read 1,347 words

"Dad, something's wrong, Mom fainted!"

Lin Shiyi flung open the door of the forensic examination room and ran out shouting.

Lin Feng hurriedly ran inside, Qi Yao had already been helped to sit on a chair by Lin Shiyi.

But her head was tilted to one side, looking as if she were sleeping heavily.

"What's going on?" Lin Feng asked, frowning.

Lin Shiyi picked up a cockroach with tweezers and said to Lin Feng, "It was found in the stomach of a corpse; how did this person swallow an entire cockroach?"

Having already been to the bombing scene earlier, Lin Feng glanced at a fat man lying not far away and said casually, "He was wolfing down his food; he must have accidentally swallowed it."

Lin Shiyi nodded and said, "Mom said that as a forensic examiner, you encounter all kinds of strange things, and indeed this is one of them."

After saying that, she asked Lin Feng, "Dad, what should we do now?"

Lin Feng patted Lin Shiyi on the shoulder and said, "Stay here and keep working! I'm going to the hospital to check."

"Okay!"

Lin Shiyi nodded and said, "There are still several corpses that need to be sutured; they all have relatives, we can't let them look too gruesome, otherwise their parents would be heartbroken."

"By the way, we found some special shrapnel, just like in the previous cases—the steel balls are engraved with a number..."

After saying that, Lin Shiyi went back to work.

Lin Feng looked at Lin Shiyi, scratched his head, and thought, "This kid's head is pretty round; shaved bald it would definitely look good."

"Maybe Han Xiang will come back, see his little bald head, and drag him off to play a little monk!"

"Dad!"

Upon reaching the outer hallway, Lin Chang'e shouted and ran over.

She wanted to jump into Lin Feng's arms.

But Lin Feng sidestepped, then raised a hand and grabbed the back of Lin Chang'e's collar.

Lin Chang'e flailed her limbs a bit, then gave up resisting, turned her head and gave Lin Feng a resentful look.

Lin Feng said calmly, "Stay here to protect Aunt Qi and Eleven; you're not to leave even a step, understand?"

Lin Chang'e pouted and said, "This is the bureau!"

"I mean on the way home," Lin Feng said, shaking Lin Chang'e.

"I know!" Lin Chang'e sighed, "I want to go to the hospital with you, Dad."

Lin Feng set Lin Chang'e down, turned and walked away.

Lin Chang'e put her hands on her hips and made a face at Lin Feng's back.

Lin Feng suddenly turned around, and Lin Chang'e's expression froze on her face.

"Don't think I don't know what you're up to; if you want Dad not to investigate, just obey me, or else I'll tell your mom you're embezzling!"

"Ah!"

Lin Chang'e looked at Lin Feng with surprise.

Lin Feng walked away smugly.

Lin Chang'e scratched her head, looking troubled, thinking, "I've jumped into a pit!"

From now on, Dad can always use this to threaten them.

No wonder Dad has always turned a blind eye—one to test their abilities, the other to catch them in a compromising position.

"We and Lin Jingru are still too inexperienced!"

……

In the city hospital, Lin Feng saw two familiar wounded.

Ling Lin and Ye Yingying.

After the explosion, the two were blown away by the scorching hot air wave.

After waking up, they discovered they were lying on a hospital bed.

Ling Lin's injuries were the worst—not only did she lose an arm, but shards of glass from the explosion sliced her face, gouging out a piece of flesh.

Fortunately, no other parts were injured, and the surgery was completed quickly.

Now she's awake, staring blankly at the ceiling of the ward.

Ye Yingying is somewhat better, but her face is ruined.

A large area of her scalp was burned, as well as her chest.

After discharge, she'll have to wear a wig for the rest of her life.

It doesn't affect her daily life, but if she ever gets a boyfriend…

It's unlikely any outstanding man could tolerate her flaws.

She can only marry an ordinary man from her hometown.

Or remain single for life.

It also greatly affects her future work.

……

After learning about her injuries from the doctor, Ye Yingying thought a lot.

Then she thought of her even worse off close friend Ling Lin, and tears began to flow uncontrollably.

While she was grieving, the ward door opened.

A nurse brought in two young people wearing blue uniforms.

Upon seeing one of them, Ye Yingying looked astonished.

It was actually the "Big Yellow Hornet"!

This guy chatted with her like a jerk, never expecting he was actually a police officer!

Look at the shoulder insignia, this rank is not low!

That day on the bus, you were investigating incognito, right?

Lin Feng originally wouldn't have come here; he just came to the hospital to find out how the injured were doing.

But after seeing the casualty list, he came.

Why wear the uniform? Because it seemed fun; in Liu Feng's office, he took the clothes hanging on the rack for Liu Feng and put them on.

Didn't expect it to fit quite well.

If Ye Yingying were a bit more careful, she would notice that Lin Feng's pants don't match.

Lin Feng pulled out a chair, sat down in front of Ye Yingying, furrowed his brow slightly, and said: "Miss Ye, we meet again, but under these circumstances, one can't be happy."

Ye Yingying forced a smile and said: "I didn't expect you to be a police officer! Really not like one."

Lin Feng shook his head: "I have no qualifications; I'm just a consultant in the bureau. This time I came out, thinking wearing this uniform looks cool, putting it on to show off."

Xiao Liu, who had come along, laughed and said: "Miss Ye, I can confirm, what he said is true."

Ye Yingying nodded, then asked: "You came over to find me, you want to ask about the situation back then, right?"

"Miss Ye is really smart!"

Lin Feng said calmly: "We want to know if, before the explosion, you saw anything or heard anything unusual."

Ye Yingying shook her head and said: "At the time I was staring at my phone, chatting with you!"

Xiao Liu looked at Lin Feng in surprise.

Lin Feng immediately explained a few sentences.

Looks like there's nothing left to ask.

"Turns out you know each other; two more casualties have woken up. I'll go ask them, Consultant, you and Miss Ye chat!"

Xiao Liu put away the notebook in his hand and said.

"Okay!"

Lin Feng nodded.

Xiao Liu turned and left.

Xiao Liu made a trip, Ye Yingying's expression darkened, tears filling her eyes.

Lin Feng comforted: "Don't be sad; people live in this world, fortune and misfortune are unpredictable; no one knows what they will become or what life they will lead."

Sometimes a good thing isn't necessarily good; conversely, a bad thing isn't necessarily bad.

"Thank you!"

Ye Yingying wiped a tear, smiling and said: "My sadness isn't because of me; this injury of mine is nothing; I'm worried about Ling Lin."

Her situation is worse than mine; she lost her left hand and her face was disfigured.

Linlin is a woman who loves life very much, likes beautiful things; because she looks good, she is very confident,

I often scold her for being vain; every day she gets up an hour early to primp in front of the mirror.

When she comes back at night, she still needs to spend two hours on maintenance.

Her room is kept clean and fragrant…… She is full of hope for the future; if that hope were gone, I truly wouldn't know if she still has the courage to go on living.

The doctors and nurses said, many people died in this explosion; we survived, which is good luck.

But for us, it would have been better to just die outright.
