"Oh, why should I be afraid?" Gu Ren climbed onto Gu Xin's soft couch, and the two siblings leaned against each other. Gu Ren continued, "Of course I want Brother Xiao Qiu to provide me with material. After listening to him talk so much just now, I feel that he is very experienced. Third sister, you don't know, after I finished writing this collection of detective stories, I plan to start another one, with the protagonist becoming a coroner."

Gu Xin asked him, "Why did you suddenly have this idea? Coroners aren't considered good citizens in our Great Zhou. Aren't you afraid your work won't be recognized?"

Gu Xin was one of the few people in her family who, besides the three time-traveling characters, knew that the popular novels published by the bookstore were all written by Gu Ren.

At first, she found it unbelievable, but later she gradually discovered that this boy was very gossipy and smarter than all his brothers and sisters. In addition, he was fed jade beads when he was born, so Gu Xin did not think much about it. She just thought that the more a child ate jade beads, the more effective they would be.

Although the younger children, Xiao Qi and Xiao Ba, who followed Gu Ren also ate the food, they weren't as clever as Gu Ren was at that age, but Gu Xin didn't suspect anything.

Now she thinks Gu Ren's behavior is quite normal; she guesses she's just used to it.

"Third sister, let me put it this way, why do you think coroners are not recognized? Why can they only be considered lowly?" Gu Ren asked seriously.

"It seems like it's always been like that! People think it's unlucky for them to deal with dead people?" Gu Xin thought for a moment and said.

“Not entirely. Our world has class divisions. And those who divide classes are those in positions of power. Although our Emperor Uncle is different from other emperors, he can't change the established rules on his own.” Gu Ren sighed and then asked, “Third Sister, do you think coroners are very useful?”

“Yes!” Gu Xin said without hesitation. “As a coroner, one can find clues on the deceased that investigators cannot, providing clues for investigators, clarifying the case, revealing the truth, and giving the deceased justice. This is a blessing to be had.”

“That makes sense. That’s why coroners are considered to be of low social status. Their children can’t take the imperial examinations, and they face many more rules than ordinary people. But ultimately, they are still ordinary people, and they do even more than ordinary people. Why be so unfair to them?” Gu Ren said.

"Yes, you're right." Gu Xin nodded.

"So, I want to write a book with a coroner as the protagonist. I want more people to see what beneficial things coroners do for the government, for those who died unjustly without a known killer, and for their families. That way, fewer and fewer people will look down on this profession. They can even be promoted, and with an official position, they can use their skills to benefit more and more people. Their descendants won't feel inferior because their parents were in this profession; they can also participate in the imperial examinations and enjoy everything that ordinary people can enjoy. Third Sister, what do you think of my idea?" Gu Ren asked earnestly.

"Great! Absolutely. Renren, you're amazing! You think so far ahead!" Gu Xin hugged Gu Ren's chubby face and kissed him, then exclaimed, "Why would someone like you go to the Royal Academy? Why not go to a school and take the imperial examinations like Enzi?"
