Only then did Xia Zhining realize that Ji Shuyun had hardly ever taken a vacation before and was always on duty.

Because the others were locals with families and Ji Shuyun was the only single young man from outside the area, the institute tacitly assumed that he should take on more work.

Twenty minutes later, Ji Shuyun arrived at the entrance of the zoo.

He was wearing a simple navy blue T-shirt, the outline of his muscular body faintly visible under the fabric, and his whole body exuded a sense of righteousness and toughness.

Xia Zhining has seen many handsome guys since she was a child, and she is not very interested in handsome guys. However, every time she sees her brother's face, she can't help but sigh, he is worthy of being carefully selected by the country.

Ji Shuyun's eyes fell on the crow following behind Xia Zhining, and a look of suspicion appeared on his face: "Zhining, why is there a little crow following you?"

Xia Zhining pointed at the little crow and said, "Brother, this crow has been following me, fluttering in front of me. It's very excited, as if it has something to show me."

The little crow followed Xia Zhining happily because Xia Zhining hadn't paid the final price yet!

He said he would wait until he took them to the place where the murderer hid the head before paying the money.

Hearing what Xia Zhining said, the little crow flapped its wings and jumped around the two of them, coordinating with Xia Zhining's performance.

Xia Zhining revealed a thoughtful expression at the right moment: "Crows are scavengers. I wonder if it has discovered the head of the headless woman in the zoo?"

When Ji Shuyun heard Xia Zhining's words, he suddenly remembered what happened that night when Zhou Zifeng was arrested.

At that time, Xia Zhining said that it was the little squirrel that informed her that someone was coming upstairs.

Facts have proved that the little squirrel's reporting is very accurate.

This sister always seems to have a particularly accurate intuition about things related to animals.

Is this the talent of a top veterinarian?

Ji Shuyun glanced at the little crow jumping on the ground and said, "Then, shall we follow it and see?"

Xia Zhining nodded. It’s great to have a brother who doesn’t spoil the fun!

The little crow flapped its wings and flew into the air, its jet-black feathers almost blending into the night, leading the two people into the depths of the abandoned construction site.

The brother and sister walked through the narrow alley and stepped into a forest path surrounded by dead trees.

The further you go in, the darker the light becomes.

Ji Shuyun always kept Xia Zhining tightly behind him.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, a desolate and abandoned construction site finally emerged.

The overgrown weeds were like countless dry fingers, emerging from the cracks in the cement and scratching at the air.

The pale moonlight poured down, illuminating the cold concrete building with a chilling glare.

A piercing chill ran up Xia Zhining's spine, and goose bumps crawled all over her skin.

The little crow suddenly folded its wings and landed silently on the ground. It tilted its head and said, "Master Director, the basement is nearby."

Money makes you the boss. Before getting the final payment, the little crow has become much sweeter.

"I'll go check out the situation first."

Xia Zhining nodded: "Then you take care of yourself."

Ji Shuyun saw the little crow and Xia Zhining chirping, and narrowed his eyes suspiciously.

After the crow flew away, Xia Zhining said to Ji Shuyun, "Brother, the little crow asked us to wait for a while while it went to investigate."

Ji Shuyun's pupils shrank slightly: "Can you understand what it says?"

Xia Zhining knew she couldn't hide it from her brother. She took a deep breath, her fingertips unconsciously twisting the corner of her clothes together. "It's bizarre... but ever since that high fever subsided, I've suddenly been able to understand what small animals say."

After she finished speaking, her eyelashes trembled nervously, and she was afraid that Ji Shuyun would think she was crazy.

"It's been burning for two days? Why didn't you call me?"

However, Ji Shuyun's brows were furrowed, with fear in his eyes, "What if something goes wrong..."

"Thank goodness, nothing happened. It was a blessing in disguise." Ji Shuyun rubbed his sister's head and said, "From now on, you'll be able to communicate with animal patients without any obstacles!"

A proud smile flickered in his eyes. "As expected, you're the youngest veterinary expert."

Xia Zhining wanted to cry for a moment. Her brother was so nice.

Just then a crow flew over, flapping its wings excitedly: "Master, there is someone in the basement!"

"Besides the murderer with the corpse and head cut off, there is also a woman who is tied up!"
