" And how are you going to do that?"

Wu Jin frowned, why was Song Yan making things difficult for him? Didn\'t he say that he was going to make sure that the man was cremated instead of buried? " I know you are worried but I also need to confirm his identity or else his family members might make things difficult for me——"

" I am not saying that you would not be able to take the responsibility but look at his clothes first, from one glance you can see that he comes from a village most probably he came to the city in search of work." Song Yan summarised the situation to Wu Jin but the latter simply frowned as if he could not understand what she meant by that, seeing that he didn\'t understand what she was saying, Song Yan rolled her eyes and further added, " You might not know this but people in villages do not cremate their dead ones, they bury them. Even if you tell them that you need to cremate this body they might not agree, what are you going to do then? Dig up his grave and then burn him?"

" That…" Wu Jin couldn\'t counter that argument, as much as he would have liked to say that he would have taken care of this matter, he knew that Song Yan was right. He has witnessed a similar thing happening a few years back when he just took over the position of the chief, back then a corpse of a young girl studying in the capital was found in the outskirts, it was badly rotten and smelled so bad that even their department members were having a little trouble taking care of it.

The police department wanted to burn the body, seeing how badly it had deteriorated but the parents of the girl wanted to take it back and bury it in their home town, no matter how much he tried to explain the situation they didn\'t listen and took the body away.

His lips pursed as he looked at Song Yan who shot him a \' so what will it be?\' look and sighed. Seems like there was no other choice.

Thus, the next day the police department was shocked by the sudden cremation of a mummified body. They were troubled by the sight of the body that seemed to have been literally sucked out of blood leaving nothing but a paper pale white skin with jarred nerves like cracks on a white marble ——- for such a horrible death the corpse was in a bit too good condition.

However, the order came from the higher-ups, so after a quick post-mortem, the body was sent to the cremation hall only for the man\'s wife and son to turn up and demand an explanation from the police department. No matter how they tried to explain to the man\'s wife that the man\'s body was degraded to the point that it couldn\'t have been kept the latter didn\'t agree to it and continued to argue with the person in charge.

" You are lying! I just talked with my husband last night about how can he die all of a sudden! You give me an explanation of what happened or else I am not leaving!" The woman was from a village and her shrewishness wasn\'t something that could have been dealt with easily either. She screamed and shouted for a long time, it was only when the department said that they were willing to compensate for the sudden loss and provide financial support for her son\'s education was the woman was slightly placated.

Lu Anhe watched the scene in front of her as the woman from the village blamed the police department for not giving her a decent explanation going as far as saying that they were hiding something from her about her husband\'s death and had a guilty conscience or else they wouldn\'t have given her a compensation.

She has been working in the department for a very long time and her position was second in terms to Wu Jin but unlike Wu Jin\'s whose temperament was calm and stoic, hers was like that of a fiery volcano, so when she heard the woman questioning the honesty of the police department and she couldn\'t hold back and said, " Mam, you seem to have overstepped your boundaries. Please maintain your dignity and think carefully, your husband was a drunk alcoholic and he died after excessive drinking. His body deteriorated until nothing was left and if we have waited for you to come then it might have as well crumbled, what\'s more, he had countless debts left in many bars and shops, the department is being kind enough by helping your family out. So, please don\'t question our honest work by using such degrading words."

The woman\'s screams finally came to rest after Lu Anhe pointed out everything clearly, that\'s right what will the police department gain after lying about the death of a man who had nothing?

Seeing that the woman was no longer screaming like a banshee, Lu Anhe walked away from the main lobby of the department and headed straight to Wu Jin\'s office, though she wouldn\'t let anyone question the dignity of the police department she had the right to question about this incident.
