Not seeing each other, Su Qiuzi was even more open through the phone line and her feelings were expressed very warmly. After saying that, she was a little embarrassed afterwards and laughed first herself.

When He Yu listened to her laughter, all the tiredness that lay between his eyebrows had vanished. He laughed softly with a low voice, and to Su Qiuzi’s ears, it was a gentle and beautiful laugh.

After letting He Yu go to rest, Su Qiuzi hung up the phone and went back to their room. After making a phone call for more than ten minutes, Su Qiuzi was covered with a layer of sweat. But she was not feeling hot at all, the corners of her mouth kept curling up and her brown eyes couldn’t hide the sweetness in them.

Lao Meng had returned and was discussing with Xu Siru about that new case he had just been listening to from the Criminal Police squad’s table. Seeing Su Qiuzi back, Lao Meng asked, “Little Su, you don’t seem to be too old, yet you’re already married eh?”

He just met Su Qiuzi this year, while there were many hosts in the station, most of the female hosts were married late and had children at a later age. When he came in just now to hear that Su Qiuzi had just graduated this year, Lao Meng was taken aback to know that she was married that early.

“Yes, it was done last year.” Su Qiuzi responded with a smile.

The girl was beautiful and her smile was also exceptionally infectious, Lao Meng laughed along with her and said, “That’s a pity, there’s a young man surnamed Luo on the table of the Criminal Police Squad who has just been transferred over from Qiao City. Graduated from military school, young and promising, otherwise I can introduce you guys to each other.”

Married men and women in the company loved to play matchmaker; when they looked at the young men and women, they wanted to match them up like a game of serial fiction and then eliminate the singles.

Hearing Lao Meng say this, Li Fa spoke as he ate the lamb kebab, “Introduce him to Xu Siru then!”

Xu Si Ru took two skewers of lamb kidneys and stuffed them into Li Fa’s mouth as she said, “You shut up.”

The people then cheered up on the table.

After this dinner, Su Qiuzi became well acquainted with the three people in the program. Li Fa and Lao Meng had outgoing and cheerful personalities and Su Qiuzi’s understanding of them was a little more profound as a result of normal day-to-day chitchat. Li Fa was a native of Wen City, who had entered the TV station after graduation and was unmarried with a girlfriend. Lao Meng on the other hand, married, had a daughter, he also dotted on her very much. His previous resignation from the Criminal Police Squad was largely due to his daughter.

And Xu Siru didn’t talk a lot, so Su Qiuzi didn’t know her very well. But she could get what Li Fa said that she appeared to be cold outside but warm inside. Her professional capabilities were also strong and her writing was very beautiful, which made Su Qiuzi quite like her.

On Friday, Su Qiuzi finished recording and before leaving, Xu Siru handed her a document. She still looked indifferent, but only said, “The manuscript you read last time, I’ve sorted it out.”

It was a case about a car accident and Su Qiuzi took a glance at it last time, but Xu Siru took it back. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to show it to Su Qiuzi, it was just that she had some kinds of OCD and didn’t want anyone to see it until it was sorted out.

Su Qiuzi took the file, smiled gratefully and said, “Thank you.”

“It’s fine.” Xu Siru said lightly and went back to the editor’s office.

There was still more than an hour before the end of the day, Su Qiuzi returned to the host’s office, sat down, and began to look over the document she was holding. The case in this file was about a husband who knew his wife was cheating on him, bought her personal accident insurance, then while his wife was dating her lover, he paid a fellow villager to crash his wife and her lover together in a car, faking an accidental death to cheat on her insurance.

The weather was beautiful and sunny this morning. But in the afternoon, dark clouds filled the sky and the offices were all lit up. Su Qiuzi looked up at the dark clouds rolling through the window and closed the file.

It was indeed related to the car accident and it was true that it was also an unnatural death, but it was nothing like the case of her mother’s car accident. Taking a deep breath, Su Qiuzi rid the thoughts from her mind. She found that she had all the potential to be Sherlock Holmes after she entered this “legal case tracking” program, always being skeptical of everything.

After she closed the file, next to her, Xie Jiagu came to chat with her. After chatting with Xie Jiagu for a while, the sky suddenly split a flash, and soon, there was a clap of thunder.
