Miss Nan's acting had always been heartfelt rather than kidney-draining. Even after her disguise was exposed, she remained completely unruffled.
"In fact, I never expected to run into you." Nan Xiaonan shrugged. "I only planned to perform the autopsy quietly and leave quietly afterward. It was you who barged into my life without my permission."
Wasn't that a shameless excuse?
Hong Hai's life had always been simple. There weren't many schemes or verbal battles... In fact, most people found it difficult to talk with her for more than thirty seconds.
"Why perform an autopsy?" Hong Hai couldn't help frowning.
There were very few things her eyes couldn't see through. Yet from beginning to end, all she had seen was a pitch-black mass... The unknown. The unknown always made people instinctively keep their distance.
"Because I'm interested." Nan Xiaonan said calmly, "Simply interested... Of course, you can also see it as an idle person suddenly feeling that she's found something to do."
Hong Hai clearly didn't believe her, but Ma hurried over at that moment, interrupting their initial exchange.
"Miss Hong Hai, I'm afraid the current situation isn't suitable for continuing the investigation." Ma frowned. "The director's intention is to have someone escort you home to rest first... If there's any new progress in the case, you'll be informed immediately."
Hong Hai asked directly, "Officer Ma, what do you think?"
Ma answered officially, "The director's intentions are my intentions."
Hong Hai let out a cold laugh. In a voice that made the quietly eavesdropping director tremble—he had even used a little trick to enhance his hearing—she said, "Then it's simple. I'll have my mother dismiss him and put you in his place."
What the hell?
That was actually an option?
And why did it feel so good?
Ma's eyes immediately widened.
