Embarrassed

“Heavens!” Zheng Ling was stunned by her technique. She stared at the incision in the sternoclavicular joint in fascination. “Boss, how did you manage to cut so seamlessly? I’ve never seen anyone cut this bone so smoothly with a knife.”

“Actually, it’s nothing.” Shen Yin put down the scalpel and used a towel to wipe blood and bits of flesh from her hands. “When you acquire a feel for it in the future, you will be able to do the same.”

“Boss, you’re really amazing.” Han Xu had been hiding at the side, not daring to approach Shen Yin. When he saw such a wonderful scene, he could not help but praise her.

“Is it that difficult?” Yun Shan had been acting for years and was used to seeing all kinds of props. Although her stomach was churning with nausea, she could tolerate it as long as she treated the corpse as a prop.

Yun Shan was barely managing to maintain her dignity by lying to herself, and her thoughts began to run wild.

She had been feeling smug when Zheng Ling praised her, but when she saw everyone praising Shen Yin and addressing her as ‘Boss’, her satisfaction turned to jealousy.

Hearing others praise Shen Yin was like a slap to her face.

She had just boasted that as long as she was around, Shen Yin would never be able to rise again. How could she watch Shen Yin rise step by step?

She was sure that she could do whatever Shen Yin did.

These people must be flattering Shen Yin. How difficult could it be to cut a bone?

“Oh?” Amused, Shen Yin studied her ashen face. “Would you like to try?”

Yun Shan arched her neck in defiance. “Sure.”

She selected a clean knife from the tray that was identical to Shen Yin’s, and turned her head away from the body on her right. She walked proudly to Shen Yin’s side and looked at the dirty gloves with disgust. “Stand further aside, don’t get in my way.”

“You!” Zheng Ling could tell that Yun Shan was hostile to Shen Yin. Even if she did not have any ill intentions, it was extremely rude of her to show disdain for the used gloves in front of a group of forensic pathologists.

Everyone present frowned in unison. Wang Sheng grabbed Zheng Ling’s arm and shook his head at her, preventing her from saying anything.

Since the boss did not say anything, and Yun Shan was an actress the chief had allowed to visit the police station for guidance, there was no need for them to get into a conflict with her and cause trouble for the boss.

Zheng Ling retracted her arm unwillingly. Seeing Yun Shan’s trembling hands reaching for the corpse, she placed her hands on her hips as if she was watching a monkey show.

Yun Shan did not want to embarrass herself in front of everyone, but it was too late to turn back. She could not give up and say she did not dare to do it.

She had underestimated the matter. She had thought that as long as she treated the bones like pig bones, it would not be difficult to remove a piece of human bone.

But when the time came for her to do it and she was forced to focus on the corpse’s collarbone, she discovered that she was horrified.

Yun Shan’s lost her grip and almost dropped the scalpel on the corpse. She grabbed it hurriedly. The tip pierced the flesh, and she felt something squish under her hand.

“Ugh.” Yun Shan covered her mouth. Her face turned from green to red. Deeply embarrassed, she gritted her teeth. Out of the corner of her eye, she secretly glanced at the collarbone and slashed downwards.

The blade hit hard bone and cracked. Shards of the broken scalpel went flying, slicing Yun Shan’s cheek.

She let go with a scream and tried to cover her bleeding face, but she could still feel the sensation of the corpse on her hand. She fled in disgust and flung herself at the trashcan, vomiting violently with no regard for her image.

“Oh dear, it’s very dangerous to break a scalpel.” Zheng Ling exaggeratedly searched the ground for fragments. “This was the best knife in our bureau. What a pity.”

Yun Shan had no energy to form a retort. Her pale face had just turned toward him when another wave of nausea suddenly hit her. She was forced to lower her head into the trashcan and vomit again.

“Actresses should just focus on acting. Why are you trying to show off? Do you really think Boss managed to become the chief forensic pathologist so easily?” Zheng Ling curled her lips in disdain.

Yun Shan had a bad reputation in the industry. Her acting skills were poor, but she could always get first-rate parts. The reason behind this was self-evident.

The most hateful thing was that Yun Shan had previously snatched a role from Zheng Ling’s idol!

Zheng Ling placed her hands on her hips and looked at Yun Shan’s pitiful figure. “We don’t have any unwritten rules here.”
