"Shu Li Li hit someone?" All of a sudden, Wan Yi Jun's surprised voice reverberated in the office room, gathering everyone's attention to the door. He was already awake when Lao Yating came to inform about the visitor who came to state the murder victim. 

"Yes, sir. I was on the balcony and saw her slapping the sanitation worker from there. When I asked Shu Li Li what was wrong, she said that he misbehaved with her."

"Misbehave?"

"She said that he touched her inappropriately."

"And you guys didn't report it?"

"We talked to the building security and replaced him."

"You have never seen him again?"

"No. I haven't. Shu Li Li was quite depressed about that incident and even returned home.

"Collect the details about this man."

"You said that there were people who stole Shu Li Li's chances. Do you know who are they ?"

"I'm not sure about it. But there was a girl named, she used to bully Shu Li Li a lot."

"Hmm. What about Shu Li Li's boyfriend?"

"Ken Wang? He is not her boyfriend. They are more like friends with benefits?

"I don't want to sound like a boomer, but miss Feng, what you have said about Shu Li Li's innocent character and these facts are somewhat contradictory to each other?"

"With a naive and innocent character, it is not easy to survive in the fashion industry. I won't refuse the fact that Shu Li Li did change. But she is not that bad that someone will stab her in the middle of hundreds of people."

"We just asked a doubt, nothing else."

"We came from a village with lots of dreams and hopes, officer. We might indeed have forgotten ourselves while trying to fit into the city lives. But that doesn't mean that we are girls who have a wretched character. How long people are going to judge us just because we were born in a village? How long we are supposed to refrain ourselves because of the belief that girls from the village should stay naive and innocent or we will be tagged as women who changed into a bitch with a questionable character."

"I'm really sorry, Miss Feng. We didn't mean to hurt you by any means. It is just...happened like that, we are extremely sorry."

"Hmm. sorry, officer. I was just being overly sensitive because of Shu Li Li's death. All these news reporters and all those comments on the internet. It just breaks my heart. These people, don't they have a heart? At least can't they think about her parents? Who would like to hear about their beloved daughter?"

"All we can say is to 

"Wait a minute, are you asking me to work at your house? That huge mansion?" Ming Yue feigned ignorance as she stood face to face with Wan Yi Jun in the narrow alley beside the brothel.

"Yes." Wan Yi Jun replied and let out a sigh, "You have seen the state of my house. Right now, I need a maid, and you need a job, so why don't we work together?"

It wasn't a random suggestion from Wan Yi Jun, but he did think about offering a job for Ming Yue, right after she mentioned that she was looking for a job. However, she kept her humility and tried to be within her limits with a man she met randomly one evening. She tried to convince Wan Yi Jun that she was only helping him handle the mess that was created in the Wisteria gardens for the sake of a clumsy and clueless young master.

However, little did he know that it was only Ming Yue's act.

"Are you sure about it, master? We just met on a random day, and you even mistook me like a burglar. What if turn out to be a criminal or a terrorist in reality?" She asked with a bitter smile, just to test his intentions to keep her as his maid.

"I will make sure to arrest you, then." Wan Yi Jun replied in the same tone and took out his phone from his jacket, "I don't know when I will be able to go home after finishing the work. Give me your phone number, I will let you know when you can join."

"Sorry, master. I don't have a phone." She lied through her teeth without any hesitations.

"Where is he?" 

"Captain went there,"

"I saw him grabbing a woman's arm." 

"A woman here?"

"That's a brothel." 

'He went inside a brothel? Good lord, no wonder, he kept rejecting Zhi Lan's proposal again and again." 

"Captain rejected Miss Zhi?" 

"Yes, she is quite heartbroken...Nah devastated by it. 

"Why did he reject her?" 

"You…" 

"I'm Bing Wen, the technical expert."

"Oh, nice to meet you, and I'm Han Ze Min. Thanks for saving me earlier."

"Never mind, sir."

"Sir? Hi everyone, it's been a while, officer Fei."

"Yes, captain. But how did you know that we are here? You even brought your rifle."

"I want to give you all a surprise."

"Huh? We thought you would only join tomorrow."

"I got a final warning from your captain as well as Chief Wu. Anyway, this is going to be the last case of my career, so I thought I would do a grand entry."

"Whom did you meet?"

"An informer."

"In a brothel?"

"What's wrong with it?"

"Well, nothing wrong with it. It is just, someone may not be happy to hear the news that you have visiting brothels."

"Officer Han, why don't you keep your personal interests out of your professional life?"

"Of course, captain Wan. But no matter whatever you say, by visiting a brothel, you are forcing someone to sell their body for the sake of money, as a human being, I can't agree with it." 

"They are also human beings. They need to live." 

"There are thousands of jobs out there in the world. Why should one have to live like this?"

"Those women don't have many choices like young masters who change their profession like clothes." 

"At least some of those young masters don't hide from their responsibilities."

"Where is he?" 

"Captain went there,"

"I saw him grabbing a woman's arm." 

"A woman here?"

"That's a brothel." 

'He went inside a brothel? Good lord, no wonder, he kept rejecting Zhi Lan's proposal again and again." 

"Captain rejected Miss Zhi?" 

"Yes, she is quite heartbroken...Nah devastated by it. 

"Why did he reject her?"

"I want to give you all a surprise."

"Huh? We thought you would only join tomorrow."

"They are also human beings. They need to live." 

"There are thousands of jobs out there in the world. Why should one have to live like this?"

If he recommends someone, then the trustee members would have no other option but give the job.

So she carefully played her pawns to get closer to Wan Yi Jun and plotted a perfect plan to make her way into Wisteria gardens, once again.

"Wait a minute, are you asking me to work at your house? That huge mansion?" Ming Yue feigned ignorance as she stood face to face with Wan Yi Jun in the narrow alley beside the brothel.

"Yes." Wan Yi Jun replied and let out a sigh, "You have seen the state of my house. Right now, I need a maid, and you need a job, so why don't we work together?"
