In front of a row of cadaver specimens, a group of people were pointing at one of the bodies, pleading with Qin Wenrou to explain: "Wenrou, will the exam cover the cause of death? I heard this Anatomy exam will include forensic content, it's super hard. Please, help us out!"

Qin Wenrou said in a gentle voice: "It's not hard. You just judge it like this—look, see if there's any postmortem greening. If there is, there's a high probability it's death by freezing, and it'll be very ugly... Hmm, this one doesn't have it, so it must be another cause of death."

The crowd sighed in admiration, feeling incredibly impressed: "The top student and campus belle is the top student and campus belle for a reason, she's so amazing..."

She could even handle forensic knowledge with such ease!

Qin Xin hurried past.

She originally had no time to spare for Qin Wenrou and her crowd.

However, the phrase "postmortem greening is very ugly" made her stop in her tracks.

In an instant.

The scene of her being sealed in an ice coffin and freezing to death flashed before her eyes!

"Sister, are you cold?"

"Sister, at minus forty-five degrees, people die of cold."

"If you die, how will you participate in the National Medical Competition..."

"Sister, stop struggling."

"I heard that people who freeze to death get frostbite all over their skin and turn green. It's called postmortem greening, it's ugly as hell."

"Brother Jun has long been disgusted by your prudishness; your cold face lacks any feminine charm, and now he finds you even more repulsive."

"Sister, just stay here in this Ice Lake coffin and wait for the good news of my marriage to Brother Jun, hehe!"

Qin Xin's gaze gradually froze over.

Slowly, her toes turned toward the direction of the cadaver specimens.

She pushed through the crowd and walked up to stand opposite Qin Wenrou.

"Hiss, you ugly freak, why are you pushing me? So much force!" someone complained, rubbing their arm.

"My foot, my foot got stepped on and I'm limping!" another person grimaced and hopped around.

Qin Wenrou looked at Lan Qingxin, who had suddenly walked over, with some surprise, putting on a generous facade: "Classmate, do you also want to listen to my review? Welc--"

Who would have thought.

Before she could finish, she was coldly interrupted by Qin Xin: "This person died of freezing."

Qin Wenrou opened her mouth, looked back at the corpse in disbelief, then turned back and smiled with practiced confidence: "Impossible, my judgment won't be wrong."

The students chimed in with one voice: "Ugly freak, stop making a fool of yourself. The top student is explaining questions to us; if you don't understand, can you just shut your ugly mouth? Stop trying to get attention!"

Qin Xin's expression was indifferent. Ignoring their mockery, she said word for word: "The deceased donated blood before death, so the blood vessels were empty. Without blood in the vessels, the hemoglobin doesn't react or decompose, so the body won't turn green. On the contrary, she would remain just as beautiful, just as lovely."

Qin Wenrou's mind went "Buzz--!" as if it had exploded.

It felt as if an invisible slap had landed hard across her face!

And for some reason, when this ugly freak emphasized "no blood in the vessels," her heart began to race, and she felt incredibly guilty.

Perhaps it was because she remembered that Qin Xin had also been drained of her blood before she died...

She had even mocked Qin Xin back then, saying she would die looking ugly.

Could it be that if you drain the blood, a frozen corpse won't turn ugly?

Even if Qin Xin died, would she remain just as beautiful, just as lovely?

She forced herself to stay calm: "If there's no blood in the vessels, the body won't turn green? The books don't say that..."

Qin Xin raised an eyebrow faintly: "Do you really need a book for such low-level knowledge? Didn't you claim to be an expert on postmortem greening? Or is it that you don't actually know anything at all?"

Qin Wenrou's face flushed red.

Immediately, a layer of cold sweat broke out on her back for no reason!

What did the ugly freak mean? Was she implying something?

But that was absolutely impossible. No one else knew the cause of Qin Xin's death, and besides, the ugly freak didn't even know Qin Xin, so why would she go out of her way to mock her for the sake of a dead person?
