Chapter 110
[No way? Daughter–in–law? I want to see the person who our chief dotes on. Does anyone have pictures?] someone asked passionately.
[I just risked my life to take this picture. That young lady is stunning and looks a little similar to our chief. Could this meant they are a good match?]
Someone uploaded a blurry picture taken from some distance away.
Despite the blurriness, even the most unromantic person would be instantly attracted by the lady next to Daisy Bailey.
[Wow, Daisy’s truly good at being our police chief. She has such a discerning eye for people. She can pick a good daughter- in–law just as she can identity criminals accurately!]
[Thank God. Thank you, young lady, for taking the edge off our chief.]
[The chief is really pushing our limits with this recent case. At least we can take a breather this morning.]
[Tell me about it. I’ll find somewhere to catch up on sleep now. I haven’t slept for five days. Help!]
The direction of the discussion in the group chat instantly changed
All of the police officers started complaining about how much work they had.
However, Daisy was completely unaware of this.
She was telling Marina why she had called her over.
“Recently, we have received several crime reports. But every time we respond, by the time we arrived, we could only find the victim’s body.
“There were no traces at the scene. The victims were all tortured to death. They had suffered a lot of ordeals before they died.
“Since we couldn’t find any other clue elsewhere, we had to solve the case based on what was on the bodies.
“Our forensic examiner has checked them many times but couldn’t find any breakthrough, so I thought I could have you. take a look and see if you can find anything new.”
Daisy’s expression was extremely solemn when she said that.
One should know that Janeborough was the capital.
The higher–ups were very concerned that so many homicide cases had happened here.
Therefore, they gave the police station a tight deadline to solve the cases.
Daisy had been sleeping at the police station for almost two weeks.
However, the killer was really very cunning. They left no trace at all despite killing so many people.
“Okay Marina nodded.
Actually, Marina didn’t need Daisy to tell her to know that this case must be tricky.
Otherwise, Daisy wouldn’t have called her.
“Unfortunately, we found a new body today. I’ll take you to the autopsy room now,” Daisy said.
Chapter 110
“Sure.” Marina agreed without any hesitation.
Daisy led Marina to the autopsy room.
It was freezing in the room, and there was a greenish corpse on the autopsy table.
From the looks of it, that person had been dead for a while.
The corpse had already begun to rot.
There was also an unpleasant stench in the air.
However, Marina’s expression did not change at all. She turned around and walked toward the cabinet.
Then she pulled out some protective clothing and masks.
Just as Marina was about to go into the changing room, the corpse in the corner suddenly sat up from the table.
“It’s… it’s a zombie!” The young officer behind Daisy and Marina immediately screamed in fear. As the young girl was turning around to escape, she hit her head on the door frame next to her and passed out.
When Daisy heard this, she rushed forward.
However, when Daisy saw who was on the autopsy table clearly, she immediately frowned.
“What’s wrong with you? Didn’t I ask you to work on the case? Why are you hiding in the autopsy room to scare people?” Daisy said sternly.
The “corpse sitting on the stage raised his hand and rubbed his temples.
“Who said I’m trying to scare people? I was just taking a nap. Because he had just woken up, the man’s voice was still hoarse.
Taking a nap? Why not in your own office? Why are you in the morgue?” Daisy rolled her eyes at him.
“It’s cooler here,” the man said matter–of–factly.
Daisy was speechless.
“Chief, who’s this young lady next to you? She’s quite brave. Is she an officer who just joined us? Why don’t you assign her to our team?” Daniel Gallagher’s gaze landed on Marina Bailey curiously.
This young lady did not flinch at all this entire time.
Even though Daniel had suddenly “come back to life” just now, there was no emotion in her eyes.
She was an interesting young lady.
“Don’t let your imagination run wild. You can’t afford to have this one.” Daisy snorted.
“Why wouldn’t I? Our team has the highest clearance rate in the station. Everyone is trying their best to squeeze into our team. Daniel jumped off the table.
“She’s not a police officer. I invited her to help us,” Daisy explained simply.
“Help? Daniel frowned.
“She’s a forensic pathologist. I asked her to come over and see if she can find any useful clues on the bodies.” Daisy did not expose Marina’s identity.
In fact, not many people in the police station even knew who Daisy was.

If Daisy hadn’t been injured, causing the Bailey family to intervene, not even the higher–ups would have known Daisy’s identity.
