The day Shen Yun transmigrated into a book as a cannon-fodder character in a household-intrigue novel, someone shoved her to the ground and forced her to confess.
She didn't cry. She pulled back the white cloth and examined the cat's corpse on the spot. “The hyoid bone is broken in two places, and there are fingertip-shaped bruises around the neck... Someone strangled it to death. The culprit wasn't very strong. It's a woman, left-handed, and there should still be cat fur under her fingernails.”
The real culprit trembled in the crowd. The whole room erupted.
Only Lu Yan, the Grand Justice of the Court of Judicial Review, slowly curled his lips in the shadows.
Everyone in the capital knew Lu Yan was a madman. He kept women at arm's length, yet climbed through her window every night. He was ruthless in battle, yet crouched outside the autopsy room to keep watch for her.
He gave people nightmares, but handed her a knife and said, “If your hand gets tired, I'll take over.”
Everyone feared him. Shen Yun alone pinched his chin and gave it a shake. “Touch my case again, and I'll examine you too.”
His eyes were bloodshot as he lowered his head and nuzzled her palm.
The untethered mad dog had been tamed into a loyal hound.
She examined corpses and solved cases. He cleaned house.
Taming mad dogs was her specialty.
