    The crowd was buzzing with curiosity, their eyes darting to Arabe.


    "Could they be medical students specializing in forensics?"


    They looked young and even somewhat couple-like.


    "Are they a couple, perhaps?"


    Upon hearing the word ‘couple’, Romeo nced back at the crowd, a look that was enough to silence


    their whispers.


    This stern-faced gentleman and thedy must be a couple.


    The warning in his gaze was unmistakable.


    Due to the murder case, the usual influx of tourists had lessened significantly. The trio found


    themselves alone, strolling along the ss pathway after taking the cable car up the mountain.


    "rk, it''s amusing that you''re scared of ghosts but not of corpses."


    Arabe couldnt help but chuckle at the irony.


    "Watch your words. rk fears nothing! Last night was just an unexpected incident,’ rk defended


    himself, trying to save face.


    "And you, young as you are, seem to fear neither man nor beast."


    Her courage was truly unparalleled.


    "She''s seen a lot and is ustomed to it,, Romeo added, unable to resist.


    He recalled her mentioning her experiences in the ‘triangr zone’, each terrifying event toughening


    her spirit, making her stronger.


    rk, oblivious to her past, assumed Romeo meant that Arabe was wise beyond her years.


    Nodding in agreement, rk admitted he hadn''te across anyone more exceptional than Arabe.


    Her nonchnce while


    In the living room.


    Louisa, holding Arabe''s hand, smiled warmly, "They seem to be getting along well."


    "They''ve been close since they were kids." Celeste, with a tender smile on her face, gestured to


    Arabe, "Be,e sit next to me."


    Arabe sat down, and Celeste brought out a gift, "When your mother told me you wereing back,


    we thought about what to get you. We heard that girls love this brand, so here''s a little something from


    us. Please ept it."

    “You''re too kind." Arabe saw the "QY" on the box, and she hadn''t expected this.


    Louisa couldn''t help but chuckle, "Celeste, you don''t know, do you?


    This brand was founded by Be."


    Celeste''s hand froze in mid-air, "You''re saying QY was founded by Be? So this ne was


    designed by her, too?"


    Celeste was taken aback by this coincidence.


    Arabe smiled lightly, "From now on, you will get a 30% discount on all QY purchases."


    Celeste was floored by this amazing surprise, and her smile towards Arabe grew even brighter.


    Upstairs, Serena watched this scene, her nails digging into her palm.


    She had just seen Crystal walking arm-in-arm with Arabe in the garden, and now Celeste, handing


    gifts and chatting closely with Arabe. In the past, she was the one who was the center of attention.


    Just then, rk returned, "It''s getting a bit chilly out. You guys continue chatting, and I have some work


    to take care of."


    "What kind of work could he possibly have sote." Louisa mused, not knowing that he was


    Astronisia''s top hacker. She watched his retreating figure, then turned to Crystal, "Crystal, did this boy


    bother you?"


    "No, Auntie. rk is really nice, and we talked a lot." Under Crystal''s curved brows, a pair of sparkling


    eyes were full of spirit, "Since rk has work to do, we won''t bother you any longer. Be, I''lle


    y with you another day."


    "Sure." Arabe had a good impression of Crystal. She was straightforward and cheerful, unlike


    Serena, who was always roundabout.


    handling a skull, her mental strength, and her medical expertise were unmatched.


    "The living may lie, but the dead do not. Every part of a deceased body tells a truthful story,’ Arabe


    shared, her tone serene.


    "Speaking the truth for the departed is the shared goal of all forensic scientists. So, rk, your


    profession is sacred andmendable."


    Arabe''s praise took rk by surprise. His career choice had been a frequent subject of his mother''s


    disapproval. He dealt with charred, dposed, mutted, and odorous bodies.


    His mother found it horrifying and dangerous, saying it was stressful and detrimental to one''s mental


    health.


    Yet, providing closure for the deceased,fort for their families, and justice for society was exactly


    what his job was about.


    In their work, forensic scientists had to eliminate all distractions to unearth the singr truth for the


    deceased. Every deduction could impact the direction of the investigation. A tiny mistake could lead to


    a huge discrepancy.


    Sometimes, the nightmarish scenes of his workday would invade his dreams.


    "Do you think this field is good?" rk asked.


    Arabe nodded. "Medical practitioners aim to save lives. While I save the living, you help the dead.


    We both uphold justice in our own ways."


    For society, they quietly contributed their humble efforts.


    Looking at Arabe, rk suddenly realized how much more outstanding she waspared to girls


    her age. If it were Serena, she would probably be hiding behind him, scared and eager to leave the


    scene.


    But Be, with her calm demeanor and professional knowledge, had helped the dead find justice.


    "Romeo, see this? My sister is so aplished. If you dare mistreat her in this lifetime, I will make


    sure you pay, he warned.
