[Ding, congratulations to the host for solving the major murder and dismemberment case.]
[Reward: Skill: King Butterfly's Nose!]
Tina Shen, stepping out of the sports car, suddenly paused.
"What's wrong?"
Ethan Jiang, who had driven Tina Shen to work, asked.
"Nothing?"
Tina Shen came to her senses, waving at Ethan Jiang inside the car. "Brother, I'm going to work."
"Mm."
Ethan Jiang nodded, still puzzled. "Be careful!"
"King Butterfly's Nose?"
Staring at the sports car disappearing into the distance, Tina Shen wrinkled her nose a few times. She could still clearly smell the scent of Ethan Jiang on her. In fact, that scent seemed like an invisible chain, leaving a trace in the air.
At this moment, her nose could pick up all kinds of strange smells in the air.
Shutting down the "King Butterfly's Nose," she couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time.
This is basically a dog's nose!
Tina Shen frowned.
Something wasn't right.
When she cracked the major dismemberment case the day before yesterday, she had been expecting a reward from the system. But it didn't come then; instead, it arrived today.
Could it be that the case wasn't considered solved until now?
After entering the criminal investigation unit, Tina Shen greeted her colleagues one by one.
Just as she was about to sit down and familiarize herself with her newly assigned desk, her phone rang. The number on the caller ID was unfamiliar.
"Xiao Shen, come to the municipal bureau."
The voice of Eric Niu, her superior, came through the phone. "There's been a situation with the case."
Tina Shen's expression darkened. She quickly excused herself to her colleagues, hailed a taxi, and headed straight for the municipal bureau.
On the ride there, she wondered what kind of situation the case could be facing?
Since the system had already issued the reward, it shouldn't be anything major.
Upon arriving at the municipal bureau, Tina Shen was called into the conference room, where she saw a group of leaders.
Everyone appeared relaxed, greeting her with smiles and nods as she entered.
She had earned her face and position through her own ability.
For example, Eric Niu, the captain of the Criminal Investigation Detachment's first division, sat in the conference room as if he were a junior.
"The case has had some changes."
The municipal bureau chief spoke, addressing Tina Shen. "Tom He has agreed to admit his crimes, but with one condition."
"What?" Tina Shen was surprised.
"He wants to be executed by firing squad as soon as possible."
The chief looked at Tina Shen with a strange expression. "We're all curious—what exactly did you say to him that scared him into this state?"
Little one, are you full of questions?
Tina Shen relaxed with a sigh. So this was what the situation was, she had thought there had been a new development in the case.
She didn't hide anything and recounted exactly what she had told Tom He.
When the group heard that mentally ill criminals are "treated specially," everyone finally understood.
So that's why! No wonder the suspect was so eager to die.
Indeed, that special holding facility was a form of psychological and physical torture.
But no one would sympathize with a criminal. What was he thinking when he wiped out an entire family?
Only when the retribution arrived did he understand fear. Why hadn't he thought about it earlier?
"We asked you to come in not just because of the case, but also for something else."
The chief smiled kindly. "In a few days, you might have to go to the province."
Tina Shen: ???
What would I be doing in the province?
"The higher-ups have decided to award you a second-class merit, and there will be an internal commendation report from the provincial system."
The chief explained, "Our city isn't qualified to issue second-class merits, so you'll need to go to the province to receive it."
Oh, right, I almost forgot…
Tina Shen finally realized.
Indeed, the city bureau was only qualified to issue third-class merits.
Second-class merits needed to be awarded by the province.
First-class merits required a trip to the capital.
Localities don't have the qualifications for first-class awards.
When she left the municipal bureau, Tina Shen felt a bit conflicted.
In this life, apart from attending the police academy, she really hadn't ventured far from home.
It was time to go out and familiarize herself with the world a bit more.
Back at the team, Tina Shen went to ask the captain for leave, notifying him that she would be heading to the provincial capital next week.
Sam Zhao, being generous, granted her two days off.
Finally, Tina Shen could familiarize herself with her office desk. She stared at the new computer on the desk, a little dazed.
In a law enforcement agency, not everyone was qualified to be assigned a computer.
She was still just a small officer—how did she get one?
Was it the captain's favor? Or someone else's?
Tina Shen realized something.
No matter whether in her past life or this one, she would never be able to escape the intricacies of human relations.
This was all about human connections...
She powered on the computer, entered the team's internal system, set a password, and then requested access to the files.
Having the necessary access, she began reviewing some past "old cases."
"Eh?"
Tina Shen clicked on one of the case files with the mouse.
Her curiosity piqued because the case seemed interesting.
More than four years, and it still hadn't been solved?
[Ding, the case trigger is successful…]
Tina Shen: ...
A little case triggered the system task?
