Chapter 139, bite the bullet and explain
The lunch break time has come, but only a few people who really take off on time. The convenient and flexible working system allows every police officer to easily allocate their time. The new case this morning is indeed not light, but the tasks assigned to Solan are limited. As soon as the lunch break time comes, he greeted Shirley and left first. Shirley did not ask about his whereabouts. The information in the black file bag was in hand, and it took a long time to digest the contents. She even had no time to go to lunch on time.
As for Solan, the sandwich for lunch was still in the drawer, but she was embarrassed to be in front of Shirley. The girl's mouth was delicious but it didn't show any signs. Just looking at the same huge gap in the huge slices of bread, Solan had to buy another lunch - at least it was common sense.
Turn left when you go out, the elevator goes down, and the goal is directly aimed at the underground space. It is now the time to get off work, and he is the only one who will come to the forensic office.
As soon as the elevator door opened, a familiar and rich smell of disinfectant filled the entire corridor and quickly floated into the elevator. Solan took a deep breath. There was not much stench of corpses here, but the remaining burnt smell would make everyone as far away as possible, especially when it was meal time, the fool would approach.
"Mai!"
Solan shouted in the corridor, his voice echoing in the open cold-toned corridor, but received no response. He walked dozens of feet and turned around. In the spacious autopsy room facing him, three freshly arrived scorched corpses were placed on the dissection table, but the person responsible for handling was Ravi Hawkins.
"Oh, Solan, you're here!"
Seeing the visitor, Ravi looked up in surprise. He was wearing a mask and holding a scalpel in his hand, standing in front of one of the bodies with wide open chests: "If you want to find Mai, she has already gone out for dinner. Come and see this body, it's really amazing!"
He pointed to the corpse and said, "Did you see it? The internal organs are preserved very well!"
One sentence is enough, and more evidence is placed directly in front of Solan. The surface of the body was burned thoroughly, and there was not even much fat left in the limbs. The charred arm bones wrapped around a layer of dead tree trunk skin, which seemed to be crushed by breaking it. The chest cavity, head, hip and other parts were also very similar, and looked like mummy and were damaged even more severely. It was nothing more than this image. But in the eccentricity of the deceased, Ravi's internal organs were really intact in the abdominal cavity of the deceased who was cut open by Ravi.
“It’s very abundant water…”
Solan commented truthfully and looked at the internal organs of the corpse with interest. It was indeed different from the zombies created by the nematodes earlier. There was no sign of any worm spots on its body. The only alternative at present was only as Ravi said, and the fire did not hurt the organs. Of course, they were not as tender as fresh internal organs. The intestines, stomach bags, liver and other organs were covered with corpse spots, which were indeed the signs that the deceased would have. The only problem was the time when the corpse spots appeared.
"That's right, and you noticed that they weren't even roasted!" Ravi pointed to the organs everywhere excitedly, and the white gloves emitted the smell of disinfectant: "It's really amazing. You know, Solan, when the deceased was burned by fire, his body was like an oven. Even if the flames were not burned directly into it, the moisture would definitely evaporate. But you see, it didn't evaporate or roast it, just like I just took the fresh organs from another corpse and put them in, it was incredible!"
"Well...ahhhh, it's really incredible."
Solan answered honestly, but the purpose of his trip was not to listen to Ravi's rumor: "When will Mai come back? I'm too lazy to hang up the phone. Is fifteen minutes enough?"
Ravi Hawkins calmed down a little, but although he got rid of his topic, he did not answer Solan's question, but smiled sly as if he had noticed a shocking secret.
"I know!" He said happily: "Officer Adams~ Are you planning to pursue Mai? I found out that you are having something to do with it very early. You came to see us several times. I am working hard, and you are flirting with her...ah!"
Suddenly, he was mute. Solan knew what was going on without looking back. He stepped on the smooth and hard marble floor with his high heels, but he could hear the sound from the entrance. Looking back, Mai Tooi was wearing that black windbreaker and long black hair. She was standing in front of the special entrance and exit, looking at her boss expressionlessly?
"good afternoon."
In an awkward silence, she spoke, put her handbag on the workbench as if nothing had happened, picked up a candy from the vessel containing the fresh brain, then took off her coat, opened the locker, and changed into a snow-white coat. In the process, Ravi smiled embarrassedly, while Solan said hello lazily, responsible for the next on-site hosting work.
"Good noon, Mai, what did you eat when you go out?"
“Subebe Sandwich.”
"What a coincidence, I also ate a sandwich at noon, at least that's how I prepared it for myself until it was unintentionally bitten by Shirley."
"……so."
When Mai said this, she was wearing a white coat. When Ravi heard the previous sentence, she opened her mouth very gossipedly, but there was nothing.
The next second, Mai tied up her clothes and looked at Solan deeply: "It seems that your sandwich is much more delicious than the Baiwei. How much did that girl eat? I won't snatch it all, right?"
"A surprise, a bite."
In front of outsiders, in the face of the silence that insiders knew, Solan was very happy to see Ravi's guessing look. Mai was the same, but it was still important to do it. She glanced at the body with her belly open and nodded to Ravi and said, "I'm back, don't be tired of yourself, go out to eat something on the street outside. The smell is quite strong here, so don't just put it in the box."
Half a minute ago, Ravi guessed that Solan and his friends were friends, so there was no reason to not have room for space now. But looking at the cheerful look when he responded, it seemed like he was about to date Ma Yi. He hurriedly put his wallet up, and he ran upstairs quite quickly. The empty corridor and the sound of running pace was not heard by the two people in the room.
Solan just stood there, watching Ravi make a fuss all over the journey, and when everything was over, he broke out and said, "Why did he have to take the elevator? Haven't you just come in directly through that door?"
Mai turned around casually for a while and took out her cell phone from her handbag: "He is happy, can you still care?"
Solan put his back on the dissection table, touched his nose, and said in a muffled voice: "I don't care, but you just reminded that guy... don't be tired of yourself?"
A typical Japanese flip phone, Mai nimblely sent a text message, raised her head slightly when she heard the sound, and smiled softly: "You can give the added sandwich to the blond policewoman, so I won't let me tell my male boss like a good wife? Solan Adams, are you a little too much?"
With a blasting f start, Solan rolled his eyes and waved his arms as if he was about to hit someone, but finally let it go: "How do you ask me to do the next topic?"
Mai was frowning, looking at the fresh internal organs of the body seriously: "Talk? Wasn't this happened last night?"
"Yes, no, the whole thing is connected."
Solan sighed lightly. There have been too many things happening in the past two days. As of now, he hasn't even told Mai about Selena's arrival in Seattle last night. This is one thing, and then his hero saved Shirley and now he wants to bring her into the group. But look at the jealousy that Mai just showed, one thing after another, what should he do?
With a pair of cold black eyes and a deep smile, he was furrowed all over by Ma Yi, as if all the secrets were self-evident.
Solan dragged the long voice and said, "Mai, chair, sit down first, and then listen to me slowly."
So, just bite the bullet...
