Chapter 390

: She Is Too Special

Mu Qiqi quickly went up with her white gloves, observing the corpse while touching it delicately.

“There’s a distinct wound from a blunt weapon on the left side of the skull, with fragments of a brick scattered over it. From the shape of the weapon, initial assessment would be that the murder weapon is a rather soft stone or brick, which did not cause much bleeding.

“The face is pale in complexion and there are distinct strangling marks, but there are no signs of struggle or self-defense. Possibility that the strangle marks are put on after death cannot be eliminated.

“Moreover, although there are many contusions on the body, it is not clear what the objects that cause said contusions are. No signs of violation observed.

“Either way, every wound on this body is not lethal. Cause of death therefore requires further examination.

“And another thing. This scene is too clean and there were no trails of dragging—this isn’t the scene of the crime but where the corpse is left.”

“Therefore, this female corpse requires further examination to reveal more details.”

The lecturer nodded when she was finished, and instructed the other more experienced forensic doctors to come up and have a look. Their conclusions did not differ much from Mu Qiqi’s.

“You are looking more the part of a forensic doctor now.” The lecturer was pleased. “You learn very quick.”

“Thanks to you, professor.” Mu Qiqi quickly said.

After that, Mu Qiqi and the team of forensic doctors began to look for useful information at the scene around the female corpse.

Meanwhile, Gu Ziling had parked her sports car nearby, pretending that she was an onlooker and finding Mu Qiqi in her large white coat.

Naturally, she did not miss the part when Mu Qiqi examined the corpse.

Be that as it may, the corpse was utterly disgusting.

However, for a girl like her to remain unmoved and touch it, that aspect alone would keep her from being pushed around by most men.

As expected of the Crown Prince. While young ladies of noble families sounded elegant and extraordinary, they were no more than soulless porcelain dolls—once you’ve seen one, you’ve seen them all. There was just nothing interesting with all of their competing of influence or wealth, and Mu Qiqi clearly stood out.

“So that’s the former young bride of the Sheng family…”

“Wasn’t their engagement called off? The Sheng family would never accept a daughter-in-law working with corpses. Still, she’s just nineteen… she’s so incredible.”

Gu Ziling drove off after hearing the onlookers’ remarks about Mu Qiqi.

She had no intention of bothering her at all.

But because of Mu Qiqi, Gu Ziling became even more curious about Sheng Xiao.

Since the Sheng family’s Crown Prince would fall for an interesting but genuine soul, he would not be a plain person either!

On the other hand, Mu Qiqi was completely unaware that Gu Ziling had come out specially to look at her. However, she received word from the forensics lab that the victim might be a young lady from an important family of Jianchuan.

Although she wanted to wait until her lecturer finished the victim’s post-mortem and identify the victim as well as her real cause of death, she had worked very late today.

“You have to be careful. It’s not safe for young girls to be out in the streets these days… junior, take the time to learn some taekwondo or kickboxing.”

Mu Qiqi grinned at her senior’s suggestion. “Thanks for your concern, but I really don’t need it.”

After all, she was rarely alone aside from the journeys here to the forensics lab, since Xiao Xiao would always be with her.

However, with the numbers of cases on the rise, she understood that the living would always be more frightening than the dead.

For example, a female university student had been killed by a taxi driver just a few days ago.

Mu Qiqi doesn’t understand why a girl would ride next to the drive when she’s outside, even though she had already hailed a cab. It’s almost as if it was common for girls to not know such self-defense knowledge these days.

Soon, it was proven that the corpse was the daughter of one of Huang Yao’s partners.

And her real death of cause was the rupturing of the organs in her stomach, caused by all the contusions.

The incident was soon known amongst the noble circles, with word out that a family’s daughter was gone just like that, as well as Mu Qiqi being present during the post-mortem.

Old Sheng was naturally upset when he heard about that.

Being reminded that Mu Qiqi’s work incurs bad luck and that she has to deal with corpses every day makes the stomach queasy even just hearing about it. How could Old Sheng enjoy that? In comparison, the young mistress of the Gu family really acted the part of a rich daughter.

“Calling off the engagement with the Shen family is the best thing I have done.

“I don’t know if I could have held on to my own birthday if this continued.”

Second Brother felt helpless at the old man’s reaction.

Perhaps the older generation would have a hard time accepting Mu Qiqi’s work.

However, Old Shen had a different opinion than Old Sheng when he received word. After all, he was merely upset that a girl like Mu Qiqi would do something that even men would fail to do.

But since Mu Qiqi was adapting well to it, he was actually proud of his granddaughter after hearing the news.

Given that Old Shen had already considered that Old Sheng’s preferences were unimportant, he did not care about that other old man now…

Be that as it may, the news about Mu Qiqi was gaining more buzz.

“What do you think, after meeting Qiqi in person?” Second Brother couldn’t help asking Gu Ziling when he had some free time—she appeared to keep to herself more after he arranged for her to meet with Mu Qiqi.

“She wouldn’t beat me in poise, stature and family background. That said, she is too special.” Gu Ziling answered after some thought.

“Would you help me because of that?”

“No one ever helped me. Maybe I would have another answer after I’ve met the Crown Prince.”

Moreover, the entire matter was not up to her.

Still, in Second Brother’s perspective, Gu Ziling was elegant and a little aloof.

She would never be happy if she married Eighth Brother.

In the past, everyone had tried to guess what type of woman Sheng Xiao was into. However, they understood that he himself didn’t know his own preferences after Mu Qiqi appeared.

Second Brother had assumed that Gu Ziling would not easily give up on Sheng Xiao since his Eighth Brother and Qiqi’s bond was too strong.

Still, after meeting Mu Qiqi, Gu Ziling visited Old Sheng in his study.

“Grandfather, didn’t you ask me who I want for my husband before?”

Old Sheng studied Gu Ziling, wondering if the child really had her eyes on Second Brother.

After all, she had made her choice even before meeting Eighth Brother. How was that not leaning toward Second Brother?”

“I want to know—when would the Crown Prince return?”

Old Sheng was taken aback but also relieved. He did prepare Gu Ziling for Eighth Brother after all.

“On my birthday.”
