In the police car speeding toward the precinct.

Officer Ma was driving, with Zhang Feng sitting in the passenger seat.

Originally, Officer Ma had no intention of taking Zhang Feng back.

But he couldn't resist Zhang Feng's relentless persuasion!

After coming out of the stairwell, Zhang Feng had no intention of going back to see Shen Xing'Er again!

The situation seemed off, and he felt it was best to avoid meeting Shen Xing'Er.

He even left Lin Rui behind.

He felt that Lin Rui, being a young woman, might be better at talking things out.

He just hoped Lin Rui could persuade Shen Xing'Er, even slightly changing Shen Xing'Er's current mindset would be good.

Driving, Officer Ma said with a strange expression:

"Forensic Doctor Zhang, I really didn't expect you to have such a relationship?"

"What relationship?" Zhang Feng was completely baffled by Officer Ma's words.

Officer Ma continued:

"I thought, since you saved Team Leader Shen's daughter, Team Leader Shen would to some extent be your protective talisman, letting you move smoothly in the system."

"But I didn't expect that you are Team Leader Shen's son-in-law?!"

Zhang Feng initially thought Officer Ma would reveal something, but in the end, it was just this:

"Shut up, will you!"

Zhang Feng's face turned dark as he spoke to Officer Ma, irritated:

"I'm not bothering to explain these things to you!"

"You just need to know that I have no relation with that Shen Xing'Er. We have no relation at all!!"

"Oh, why are you getting worked up?" Surprisingly, Officer Ma looked like he was enjoying the spectacle:

"Can't you tell me about it? Huh? How did you meet? What really happened? Can you satisfy my curiosity and gossip?"

Zhang Feng glared at Officer Ma from the corner of his eye and said:

"Officer Ma, I advise you to focus on the serious stuff!"

"Wouldn't it be better to use your energy to solve the case? Tell me, what were the results of the interrogation of those two?"

Zhang Feng said this to change the subject.

Because he could no longer stand Officer Ma.

How could he be like a pest in a melon field, endlessly annoying?

Seeing Zhang Feng uninterested, Officer Ma stopped asking questions.

Moreover, they were not far from the precinct, so he answered Zhang Feng's question:

"Those two culprits confessed quite easily. Knowing that their criminal acts were discovered, they admitted everything!"

"But that man, the victim's brother, said he bought those Gu insects from a homeless man!"

"A homeless man?!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Feng frowned slightly.

Since when could a homeless man control Gu insects?

This wasn't because Zhang Feng underestimated the homeless.

It was because if someone could use the Gu technique and even control Gu insects, they wouldn't end up living on the streets!

Thus, Zhang Feng pondered slightly, murmuring:

"I'm afraid this homeless man is not the mastermind."

Hearing this, Officer Ma nodded lightly, even though he didn't respond.

Quickly, Officer Ma took Zhang Feng back to the precinct.

The criminal investigation team under Officer Ma had been waiting for a while.

Seeing Officer Ma's car return, they ran out of the precinct, holding a note:

"Boss, we have the address, should we head out now?"

"Let's move out!"

So, Zhang Feng and Officer Ma didn't even get out of the car.

They followed the precinct's line of police cars, turning on their sirens, heading in a grand procession to the disclosed address.

It didn't take long.

The convoy led by Officer Ma arrived at the destination.

Facing a malodorous ditch with mosquitoes buzzing around.

Officer Ma's expression tightened as he asked his subordinates:

"Are you sure that this is the location that person disclosed?"

The subordinate, equally puzzled, scratched the back of his head while looking at the location on his phone:

"The location he gave was indeed here, unless... that bastard was lying to us?"

But just then, Zhang Feng's voice suddenly called out from afar:

"Officer Ma, over here!"

Officer Ma was stunned at this voice and looked in the direction it came from.

He found that Zhang Feng, who was next to him earlier, was now in the ditch?!

Standing among piles of garbage, waving at him!

"Damn!"

"When did you get over there?"

Zhang Feng didn't pay attention to Officer Ma, instead turning around and disappearing into a mound of garbage.

Officer Ma slapped his thigh:

"What the hell are you all doing?!"

"Look at Forensic Doctor Zhang, then look at yourselves!"

"Now get down there, follow Forensic Doctor Zhang!"

His group finally reacted, quickly leaping down into the stinking ditch, lining up, and following Zhang Feng's lead.

This area was at the junction of urban and rural areas, and the original villagers had not yet fully integrated.

All sorts of waste, kitchen refuse, all kinds of rubbish were dumped into this smelly ditch.

Imagine how terrible the environment here was.

Officer Ma and his subordinates followed Zhang Feng's footprints, faces pale, trudging along.

Some couldn't hold back their nausea and kept retching.

But Forensic Doctor Zhang was marching ahead!

They didn't want to fall behind, holding their breath with determination.

Finally, at least three team members couldn't hold back anymore and vomited.

Officer Ma followed Zhang Feng to an area that seemed relatively clean, free of any trash or waste.

Although the air was still filled with a foul stench, at least nothing visually repulsive was in sight.

Officer Ma breathed a sigh of relief, approaching Zhang Feng.

However, upon nearing Zhang Feng, Officer Ma's eyes suddenly contracted, and his voice slightly trembling:

"This... this this..."

"Is this actually a skeleton?!"

Upon hearing Officer Ma's exclamation, his team members, already struggling with their stomachs, followed his gaze.

Indeed, a skeleton lay quietly on a dirty sheet.

And it was crawling with maggots, wriggling slowly.

"Ugh—"

"Yue—"

"Ugh!!!"

A series of vomiting sounds emerged.

Even Officer Ma could barely hold it in at this moment.

But looking at Zhang Feng standing beside him.

The calm demeanor was something Officer Ma truly admired!

He even felt a curious admiration inside:

"How does he act as if such scenes are everyday occurrences?"

"Could it be that all forensic doctors are like this, having seen too many corpses?"

"It shouldn't be that way. We've seen no fewer corpses in criminal investigation."

This kind of terrifying mental resilience from Zhang Feng left not only Officer Ma but all team members in awe!

Little did they know.

In his past life, Zhang Feng had seen countless victims of the Evil Cultivator, far more gruesome than this.

Officer Ma, struggling with discomfort, said with difficulty:

"It seems we arrived too late. This remains appear to be that of the homeless man."

Zhang Feng, frowning, nodded slightly, but his eyes held a hint of serious contemplation:

"Indeed, this skeleton has no aura of the Gu technique. The real culprit behind the scenes is someone else, but... who could it be?"

But just then, Zhang Feng's gaze suddenly sharpened!
