The salty sea breeze of the early morning blew in from the ocean, hitting Ye Tian Ming’s face.
Plop! Plop!...
A small yacht quietly floated on the surface of the sea, bobbing up and down with the rippling water.
It was a 7.5-meter long yacht, purchased by Ye Tian Ming a year ago. This type of small yacht was entirely different from those larger, luxurious ones.
Naturally, the price was much cheaper!
Those luxurious yachts, they cost hundreds of millions, or even several hundred million.
Ye Tian Ming’s small yacht, however, cost only slightly over a hundred thousand when he bought it. With his income, he could easily afford it.
He didn’t rent a high-end dock either; it was a cheaper, more remote one, and the monthly rent was only around a thousand.
Of course!
A thousand a month was still expensive for most of the working class in Hong Kong.
But Ye Tian Ming was a forensic scientist with a monthly income of 12,000.
He could still afford this little expense.
Half an hour ago, Ye Tian Ming drove to the dock where he rented the yacht, and then sailed out to sea.
Upon reaching the predetermined coordinates, he stopped.
At this moment;
He was throwing one black plastic bag after another into the sea.
The plastic bags were heavy, each one thrown into the sea and sinking.
He had chosen this spot in advance, located north of Belcher Bay. The seabed here had several converging currents, forming an underwater whirlpool. This would hold the black plastic bags he threw down, fixing them to this part of the seabed.
This would prevent them from being washed ashore by currents or anything else, and discovered by people.
After all eight black plastic bags were thrown in.
Ye Tian Ming stood up and panted for breath.
“I need to exercise. My physique isn’t so good!”
He wiped the sweat off his forehead. This little amount of exercise already made him tired. It was a waste of his 1.8-meter tall frame.
But he really hadn’t exercised properly in the past few years.
Every day, he was either sitting in his office or in the dissection room.
Occasionally, he would go out on a field trip, but even then, he would travel by car.
Exercise?
What was that?
He was watching his weight quickly approaching one hundred and eighty pounds.
Ye Tian Ming thought that he really needed to exercise and improve his physical fitness.
Otherwise;
The recently unlocked [Comprehensive Combat] skill would be greatly discounted.
After all, the skill gave Ye Tian Ming technique and experience.
But his physical fitness was still his original one.
Even with a proficient Comprehensive Combat skill.
How much could he actually achieve?
So;
It was time to prioritize fitness!
......
It was a little past 1:00 am.
Ye Tian Ming returned home, feeling somewhat tired.
He took a shower first, then returned to his study, wiping his wet hair while taking out a map and marking a red cross on a specific location.
At this moment, Ye Tian Ming felt a little fortunate that he had bought that small yacht because he suddenly fell in love with sea fishing.
Otherwise.
He would have had to think hard about how to deal with the body tonight!
Unlike now;
No body! No motive!
Even if the white-haired younger brother couldn’t figure it out and went to report it, it would only be treated as a missing persons case.
And;
To be blunt, a gangster goes missing.
No one would care!
The Hong Kong police even wished those gangsters would die off sooner rather than later.
For example, a certain Huang-surname official.
“Maybe I can give myself a nickname, ‘Cleaner’?”
Ye Tian Ming suddenly thought.
Cleaning up the scum of society, wasn't he a cleaner?
The next day;
Ye Tian Ming got up at 8:00 am as usual.
Then, he spent half an hour washing up and having breakfast.
He arrived at the Forensic Department to clock in before 9:00 sharp!
“You’re so punctual again?”
Gu Ze Chen, holding a cup of coffee, chuckled and teased Ye Tian Ming when he walked in.
Clocking in on time was Ye Tian Ming’s style.
Just like his punctuality in leaving work. These were his labels.
Gu Ze Chen and the others, however, usually arrived earlier.
Of course, they were only a few minutes or ten minutes early, not really that much earlier.
After all, they were forensic scientists.
Not police.
“Anything going on today?”
Ye Tian Ming walked over and unceremoniously took a sip of coffee from the table.
“It’s still the same case from yesterday. If you have time later, just give the report to Madam Liang.”
Gu Ze Chen said.
“No problem, just give it to me later.”
Ye Tian Ming nodded.
The body from the burglary and murder case yesterday was examined by Gu Ze Chen, and Ye Tian Ming was his assistant. Therefore, the report was written by Gu Ze Chen.
After all, he was a senior forensic scientist with almost ten years of experience.
In his professional field, he was naturally more outstanding than Ye Tian Ming.
Usually, these more difficult cases were handled by Gu Ze Chen or Wen Jia Xi.
Ye Tian Ming had just been promoted recently. For now, he was mainly assisting the two of them or taking on simpler cases.
For example, the case of the deceased “Bar Bi.”
The cause of death was clear, and there was no need for Gu Ze Chen to handle it. It was a way to give Ye Tian Ming some practice.
The Forensic Department where Ye Tian Ming worked was on the 13th floor of the West Kowloon Headquarters.
The West Kowloon Serious Crime Squad was on the 7th floor.
After getting the report from Gu Ze Chen, he took the elevator to the 7th floor and quickly found the office of the Serious Crime Squad Unit 2 and walked in.
“Forensic Scientist Ye, is the autopsy report from yesterday’s case out?”
The person speaking was named Shen Xiong, the Deputy Superintendent of the West Kowloon Serious Crime Squad Unit 2, a Detective Inspector.
He was originally the most likely candidate to become the Head of Unit 2, but unexpectedly, Liang Xiao Rou was airdropped into the position and became their Unit 2 Head.
Currently, Liang Xiao Rou had just joined the West Kowloon Serious Crime Squad Unit 2 and hadn’t gotten along well with the members of the team. If it weren’t for Shen Xiong mediating, the members of Unit 2 might have already stopped giving this newly arrived Madam any face.
After all;
They were considered insiders.
Liang Xiao Rou was an outsider, parachuted in. And because she wasn’t very smooth in dealing with people, she hadn’t even taken the Unit 2 members out for a meal since she joined.
Behind her back, the members of the unit called her “Fierce Hag.”
The reason was that Liang Xiao Rou always had a stern look on her face when she worked, giving off a very arrogant vibe.
“Yes, the report is here. I came to give it to your Madam Liang.”
Ye Tian Ming shook the folder in his hand.
“Give it to me. Madam just went out.”
Shen Xiong said.
“Alright.”
Ye Tian Ming wasn’t necessarily trying to give the report to Liang Xiao Rou. Since she wasn’t here, giving it to Shen Xiong, the Deputy Superintendent, was fine.
“Whoa~！The report is out?”
