I'm not a theatre god

"Wow."

Chen Ling expressed shock in response, "Who is it? Who would do this?"

Wen Shilin thought seriously for a moment and replied: "Most likely it is the victim's family? I have encountered this situation before. After a child was killed, the parents were afraid of the authority of the perpetrator, so they only dared to use this method to express their anger. I asked for help, hoping that I could give them justice... It's also possible that someone discovered the body but didn't want to have anything to do with it."

"That's it." Chen Ling nodded.

Chen Ling was originally thinking about finding some excuse to deceive him and disassociate himself from the corpse, but now it seems that he is overthinking it.

"I took a quick look and found that the condition of the corpse is very similar to what you described before. It may also be related to the organ trade." Wen Shilin said seriously.

Chen Ling's face suddenly became solemn, "You mean, those people took action in Aurora City?"

"Most likely yes."

"There are too many doubts about that corpse. A systematic examination needs to be done first... I'm going to find a friend who is an expert in forensic medicine." Wen Shilin looked at the time and continued, "You bring your ID first. Go to the newspaper office and get your things. I’ll go find you when I’m done here.”

Wen Shilin looked very hurried. After saying a few words to Chen Ling, he turned and left.

Chen Ling looked at Wen Shilin's leaving figure and secretly thought to herself, "If it were any other reporter who woke up early in the morning and found an empty body at the door of his house, he would probably be scared to death immediately." Then I started to think about whether I had offended anyone...

On the other hand, Wen Shilin's reaction after seeing the corpse was not fear, but like a hunter who smelled the scent of prey, and immediately started to act with shocking efficiency.

Chen Ling closed the door, went back and simply packed her things. When it was almost time to go to work at the newspaper office, she set off leisurely.

This was his first official day on the job. Although he just wanted to use his status as a "journalist" to get things done, he still had to do some face-saving work... He chose an elegant and calm shirt and vest from Chu Muyun. , tied up his tie, put on a brown coat, and paired it with the half-rimmed glasses, it really looked like that from a distance.

Chu Muyun, who was also preparing to go to work, walked out of the house wearing a white coat. When he saw Chen Ling's outfit in the yard, his brows raised slightly.

"Nice outfit, Reporter Lin." Chu Muyun said in a subtle tone, "I hope there will be less 'big news' related to you in the Aurora Daily these days."

Chen Ling pushed the frame on the bridge of her nose and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, I've always been very calm."

After saying that, he pushed the door open and walked out with Chu Muyun's white eyes.

Chen Ling walked to the side of the road, stopped a rickshaw, and headed straight for the newspaper office.

The location of Aurora Newspaper is not far from Chen Ling's residence, but rather than good luck, it is better to say that the location of Chu Muyun's mansion is so good. It is located in the most prosperous section of Aurora City, so it is not too far away anywhere. .

But to Chen Ling's surprise, the newspaper office was not as big as he imagined. A four-story foreign-style building located on the street was the entire newspaper office. The surface of the dark brown masonry is covered with carvings from wind and snow. Above the narrow door, the four characters "Aurora Newspaper" are written in dimly worn fonts, giving it a strong sense of history.

Chen Ling stood alone at the door for a while, then opened the door and walked in.

"Who are you?"

As soon as he entered the door, the security man at the door of the newspaper office looked at Chen Ling warily and silently grasped the stick behind his back.

"My name is Lin Yan, and I am a new reporter." Chen Ling took out her press card, "Today is the first time I go to work."

The security guard looked at the press card suspiciously for a long time, then relaxed slightly and said, "Wait a minute."

After saying that, he turned around and walked to the end of the corridor. After saying a few words to someone, a figure quickly walked out of it.

It was a woman wearing an off-white business suit and high heels. She had short, lean hair and looked very elegant. She looked at Chen Ling carefully for a moment.

"Are you Lin Yan?"

"yes."

"Sorry, because people often come to the newspaper office to cause trouble, so the security measures will be stricter."

"I am Feng Man, the editor-in-chief of the newspaper." She said as she walked towards the inside of the newspaper, "Wen Shilin has already told me about your situation, come with me, I will take you to familiarize yourself with this place. "

Seeing this, Chen Ling immediately followed the other person, while looking around curiously.

Although Feng Man was wearing high heels, her walking speed was not slow at all. She walked between the many workstations and spoke slowly:

"The history of Aurora Newspaper can be traced back to when Aurora City was established more than 300 years ago. We were born with the responsibility of monitoring and guarding the truth. After hundreds of years of wind and snow, we have made it all the way to where we are today... Until now, we It is also the most authoritative media in Aurora City.”

As soon as Feng Man opened his mouth, Chen Ling felt familiar with listening to her boss preach about corporate culture in her previous life.

After hearing these words, Chen Ling felt a little confused. She pushed up her glasses and asked as if unintentionally: "We were born with the responsibility of monitoring and guarding the truth... What about now, why are we born?"

Feng Man's steps paused slightly.

She took a deep look at Chen Ling and couldn't tell what she was thinking. She just replied lightly:

"I know what you want to say. Since Wen Shilin would rather risk his career to recommend you, it means that the two of you must have something in common... I can only answer you, our responsibilities have never been the same for so many years. What changes is people.”

As soon as these words came out, Chen Ling felt a little surprised. On the one hand, it seemed that not everyone in the newspaper office had been corrupted. On the other hand, Wen Shilin actually risked his career in order for him to become a reporter... …No wonder these procedures are so fast.

Chen Ling heard the implication of Feng Man's words and nodded slightly: "I understand."

"The first floor is the reception area and the editorial department. This is the studio area..."

Feng Man didn't take the episode to heart at all and continued to introduce the situation of the newspaper office to Chen Ling. Others in the newspaper office also noticed this new face and cast surprised looks at him.

Among the busy crowd, Chen Ling glanced around and saw a familiar face.

Behind the desk not far away, Zhuo Shuqing, who still had ice on his mouth, seemed to have finished his work. He put down his pen slowly and yawned lazily, revealing the few words in his mouth. A few of them broke the pressure... But just halfway through, I saw Chen Ling walking towards me.

His open mouth froze instantly, his eyes widened, and he looked like he had seen a ghost!

"You...why are you here?!"
