「Chunming.」
It was already evening.
The expressway exit was somewhat congested. The cars' red taillights stretched into long lines, like blood.
Due to the uniqueness of Rong Mingxia's case and the suspicions Yin Le had reported, the case had become highly sensitive. She had been transferred from Huize County to Chunming this afternoon and was now in a detention center in the Chenggong District. This could be the first major case the newly established Heavenly Master Department would handle in conjunction with the police.
Yin Le and Zhou Li were led down a corridor by a duty officer, passing cell after cell on both sides.
The detention center's conditions were worse than a prison's. As it was only for temporary detention, it didn't even have beds—just a large, common platform where people could lie down. But the cells were extremely overcrowded. Despite the late hour, most inmates were merely sitting, their mental states poor from lack of rest.
