Beyond Redemption [Crime Investigation]

[Completed]

[Announcement: This novel will be completed as a paid work on July 13, starting from Chapter 19.]

[Before You Read]

1. I wrote this book four years ago. It was my first attempt at writing an online novel. I hadn't signed a contract at the time. I simply wanted to finish a book, and I kept writing until the end. The quality definitely could use some improvement.

2. This is my personal account, mainly for writing the things I want to write. Most of my work is unconventional.

3. Please forgive me if the reading experience isn't great.

[Coming Soon: Corpse Love [Mystery]]

After I died, I saw my corpse get up with my own eyes.

It walked out of the morgue and into the bathroom, where it put on an exquisite face of makeup.

Then, using my identity, it found the senior student I had a crush on.

I watched helplessly as they went on dates, kissed, and fell passionately in love.

I was frantic with worry.

At last, I found a chance to talk to it. "What are you trying to do?"

My corpse smiled at me and said, "I'm going to do what you wanted to do: kill him."

Blurb:

[Tip 1: I originally planned to write a story with no romance, but as I kept writing, a little spark appeared, so I simply changed the genre.

Tip 2: There are ten cases in total. The blurb is short, so I'm only introducing three.

Tip 3: I'll try to update daily. I'll write as much as I can, with one chapter as the minimum and no maximum, as long as I still have the energy.

Tip 4: All stories are fictional. Any resemblance is purely coincidental.

Tip 5: I'm a beginner, so please feel free to point out anything that needs improvement. Thank you.]

[Awkward, tongue-tied straight-laced rookie cop x career-focused straight female ace detective]

Wei Yiming, head of the Major Crimes Unit, believes that no matter how complicated a case is, it can be solved if you put in the effort to find the clues. The human heart may be inscrutable, but he always has a way to break through people's psychological defenses.

But when it comes to Xiao Pei, none of his tricks work. Even his usually reliable gift of gab fails him. He stumbles over his words, often leaving people unsure what he's trying to say.

After several failed confessions, straight-laced Xiao Pei has picked up a new catchphrase: "Captain Wei, I'm a police officer."

Xiao Wei spreads his hands, speechless. Does being a police officer mean you can't date?

[Case Brief]

He Li suddenly sensed that something was off. She sniffed and noticed a strange smell lingering in the air.

It wasn't the smell of fries. It was the smell of fried pork chops, though not quite like the pork chops served at the restaurant.

The only sounds in the entire restaurant were the bubbling of hot oil and her own breathing.

At last, unable to shake her unease, she walked over to the fryer.

She lifted the lid, screamed, and fell to the floor.

There were no fries in the boiling oil. Tumbling around in it was a human arm!

Rain poured down. With a bang, the car hit something.

Wu Yin pulled over into the emergency lane and got out to check.

The bumper was covered in blood, and a streak of blood had been dragged across the road by the tires.

She followed the trail to the middle of the road. Being washed by the rain was a body with nothing above the ribs.

*

The shower suddenly stopped. Jin Ran cursed the lousy property management under her breath.

With no other choice, she stepped out of the shower.

The bathroom was cold, and she sneezed.

Something seemed strange. She remembered closing the window before her shower. It was a habit of hers.

Why was it open now?

Wrapped in a bath towel, she went to close it. Suddenly, the lights went out, and then a face appeared right in front of her.

It was an upside-down face, and she lived on the seventeenth floor.

She let out a startled scream, but someone clamped a hand over her mouth from behind.

At last, it's finished~~ I wrapped it up in a hurry.

First, I've had too much going on lately and no time.

Second, I was running out of inspiration.

This book was just practice, so the quality is definitely not great.

I just wanted to see how good I was at making up stories,

and whether I could write a million words.

Theme: Punish evil and promote good; justice lives forever.
