The cinema janitor's regional accent filled Chi Qing's ears. The original clamor of the surveillance room faded into the distance, and he didn't even hear Xie Lin calling his name right beside him. Standing up in a panic, the janitor apologized repeatedly: "I'm so sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going..." She wanted to pull her hand away from Chi Qing and continue walking out. However, Chi Qing did not let go. His cold hand clung to the back of the janitor's hand like a snake, even increasing the…-

Dr. Wu: "Hello? Mr. Chi, it’s me." "Are you alright? Your voice sounded off just a moment ago..." Half an hour later, Dr. Wu called again to confirm the appointment time. He cleverly bypassed the subject of who had answered the phone last time and asked, "Let me confirm with you once more: are you still coming in for the consultation today?" By then, Chi Qing had already extricated himself from the "entanglement" of Xie Lin and the wall, the flush on his ears taking quite a while to…

Even though Chi Qing was no longer particularly keen on paying him any mind, once he saw that message, the chatter of the protagonists on the television seemed to fade away from his ears. He didn't even notice the cat quietly shifting its bottom, its tail sweeping across the surface and landing perfectly right beside his feet. Chi Qing didn't reply in his usual conversational style. He moved his fingers for a moment and typed back a single character: -Yes. After sending it, he waited for the…

The morgue was about ten square meters in size. Chi Qing and Xie Lin stood between rows of cadavers. The body Chi Qing had accidentally touched lay straight on an iron bed. It was visibly male, lean, and about 178cm tall. The man’s body was shriveled and rigid. Most of the skin tissue had been meticulously removed, leaving only the skeleton and muscle tissue. The frame was complete, with strands of dark-red muscle wrapped densely around the bones. "It" was different from the simulation props found…

Using the excuse, "Boss, I might have something going on at the company, I can't keep my phone away for too long in case someone needs me," Xie Lin requested to step out briefly to retrieve his phone. The owner led them out through the fire exit. As they walked through the narrow, aged passage, he asked offhandedly, "Were you scared back there? You didn't seem to have much of a reaction, though." Xie Lin: "He was so scared he went blank; he hasn't recovered yet." The owner: "Is that so?" Xie…

“Meow.” The cat, which still didn’t have a name, sat hunched by the doorway. Upon hearing noise in the hallway, it knew the owner was coming home. It stretched out a paw and impatiently scratched at the door a few times. With a "click," the door opened. The cat leaped forward, but stopped itself halfway, its paw pads screeching against the floor. Besides the cold-looking owner, the annoying person from across the hall had followed him inside. The cat: “……” Xie Lin crouched down…

The coldest months of the year have passed, and since the weather warmed up, it hasn't dipped back down. Pedestrians on the streets have slowed their pace, and the greenery along the roadside is gradually reviving, with some plants sprouting tiny green tips. Xie Lin arrived early in the morning with breakfast, habitually entering the password to Chi Qing’s door lock. With a "beep," the lock clicked open. In the entryway, the number of slippers had grown from one pair to two—and both were the same…

Shen Xinghe was a year older than Xu Xingzhou. If the information on his student records was accurate, he was currently in his third year of high school.

She was suddenly interrupted by several criminal investigators. Standing on the podium, the tier head was at a complete loss: "Excuse me... is…

By the time Chi Qing opened his eyes, the desk was already piled high with books. Spread out right in front of him were copies of Principles of Machinery, Mechanical Design, and Mechanical Manufacturing. "..." Seeing him wake up, Xie Lin explained, "These are all the books Shen Xinghe borrowed from the school library over the past month." Chi Qing casually flipped through them and asked, "Does he want to major in mechanical engineering?" "No," Xie Lin replied. "I just asked his homeroom…
