Actually, it wasn't just Officer Hu who gasped.
Even Zhang Feng himself gasped.
Staring at the surveillance footage, Zhang Feng's eyes nearly popped out!
Because the footage on the screen actually showed...
Him and Lin Rui next to the corpse from before, embracing and kissing...
That's right.
They were kissing!!!
And Lin Rui's soft voice slowly came through:
"Please... you have to keep this a secret for us..."
As she said this, Lin Rui's cheeks turned a soft shade of pink.
Zhang Feng was about to break down.
Why are you blushing like a teapot?!!
When did the two of us kiss in the autopsy room?!
I'm still a young bachelor!
Isn't this ruining my reputation?!
Moreover, Lin Rui had now walked up to Zhang Feng, linking her arm with his, leaning her head sweetly on his shoulder like a little wife!
Zhang Feng finally understood.
Why Lin Rui agreed with Officer Hu to watch the footage.
It turned out she had already edited the surveillance footage in advance.
But where did she find a clip of us kissing to overlay onto it?!
Even if it was just a show for these two.
This footage is not appropriate...
And after a brief moment of shock, Officer Hu immediately turned his head.
Then, looking awkward and apologetic, he addressed Lin Rui:
"Forensic Doctor Lin, I'm really sorry...."
"Actually..... um... uh..."
"Alright, I will keep this secret for you, but still, congratulations...."
At that moment, Hu Huixin also stared blankly at the footage, her face a little flushed.
But then, as if she had gone mad, she dashed toward the computer, shouting:
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! It's not like this!!!"
She quickly operated the footage to fast forward.
The video showed the two of them kissing and then moving to the autopsy table to begin the examination, repeating the autopsy process until she and her father barged into the room on the footage.
"No... no no no, it's not like this, really it's not like this.... "
Hu Huixin was almost going crazy.
And Officer Hu directly stepped forward, grabbing Hu Huixin by the ear and pulling her away from the computer, loudly questioning her:
"What do you want to do?!"
"Did you rush to call me just to announce that these two forensic doctors are together?"
"Great job! As an officer, you can't differentiate between what's important and what's not!"
"Do you know I'm in the middle of interrogating a suspect and you keep disturbing the forensic doctors' autopsy?!"
"I'm telling you, when they get married, to make amends, you'll give them a gift!"
Holy crap, marriage...
Why has this gone all the way to marriage?
The most stressed was not even Hu Huixin but Zhang Feng!
Did he get married off without knowing anything?
Huh?
Married off?
Never mind, the result is the same anyway!
He's completely at a loss; Lin Rui actually pulled this off?
Just replace all our autopsy footage, why add a kissing scene!!
The most incredible thing is that Lin Rui quietly added:
"As everyone knows, videos can't be edited, so this is real."
Of course videos can't be edited....
Yet Hu Huixin was willing to endure the pain in her ear to say:
"No, certainly not like this!"
"I have seen the footage before, it's definitely not like this, you must have pre-edited it..."
"What?!"
Hearing Hu Huixin's words,
Lin Rui released her grip on Zhang Feng's arm.
Looked sternly at Hu Huixin:
"Did you sneak into the surveillance room of my autopsy room without telling anyone?"
"What are you trying to do? Tamper with our autopsy process?"
"Do you understand the consequences of your actions?!"
Upon hearing this, along with Lin Rui's serious tone, Hu Huixin's heart skipped a beat.
Being part of the division, she was well aware of what sneaking into the surveillance room without permission implied.
Panic immediately set in:
"No, no!
"I had no intention of altering the footage, I just took a look, I didn't... "
"Just because you say so, it's true?!" Lin Rui moved forward a step, her tone somewhat aggressive!
And her words came out like rapid-fire cannonballs:
"Little Hu, what are you up to?"
"Spying on our autopsy, even sneaking into our surveillance room, accessing our footage?"
"What, do you have some undissolvable link to this case??!"
Hu Huixin's pupils shrank suddenly:
"No no no, I didn't, I know nothing!!"
Lin Rui's words carried great weight.
They scared this naive young girl so much, tears welled up in her eyes.
She frantically turned to her father for help:
"Dad! I really didn't mean anything by it, honestly!"
"Dad!"
Officer Hu's eyelids twitched wildly at that moment.
He released his grip on his daughter's ear and quickly stepped between her and Lin Rui, his face apologetic, he gestured with both hands:
"Um... Forensic Doctor Lin."
"Please calm down.... "
Officer Hu awkwardly said:
"Actually... I assigned her the task, asking her to follow... little Zhang during the case to observe, so...."
"Me?"
Zhang Feng, who had remained silent, now showed a hint of confusion, letting out a slight 'huh'.
Officer Hu immediately addressed Zhang Feng:
"Little Zhang, you mustn't overthink, it's not that I don't trust you."
"It's simply because your ability to solve cases... is too extraordinary. I had her follow you to learn from your skills and observe how you solve these cases, so...."
Officer Hu was simply out of options.
Who would have thought that by having his daughter follow Zhang Feng,
she would repeatedly create such misunderstandings.
So he decided to come clean.
And Zhang Feng knew well enough to go with the flow, so he also said:
"Officer Hu, you could have just told me directly?"
"If you want to know, just take me with you next time you work on a case."
Upon hearing this, Lin Rui paused slightly, a hint of surprise in her eyes, but she said nothing.
Officer Hu was pleasantly surprised and exclaimed:
"That's wonderful! Little Zhang, it's a deal then!"
Subsequently, Officer Hu hurriedly led his daughter out, continuously apologizing to Lin Rui:
"Forensic Doctor Lin, I am really sorry."
"I'll go home and properly discipline this stubborn girl, make her write a self-criticism, and personally come apologize to you, Forensic Doctor Lin, please don't hold a grudge!"
With that, they quickly ran away.
Afraid that if Forensic Doctor Lin were to start a fuss, even he couldn't contain it.
However, Lin Rui did not stop them.
Once the two were gone, Lin Rui let out a long sigh of relief:
"Whew..... finally gone, good thing I took two years of video editing in college, otherwise we'd really have been exposed!"
But soon after, she met Zhang Feng's resentful gaze, slightly pouting:
"What, why are you looking at me like that?"
"Wait..... don't come over, stay back!"
