At about 20:30, a body of a man is found in the forest. The police precipitated to come. They enclosed the place to forbid the journalists and people that have no task to get in.
Among the police, there are Kevin, Kenneth, etc...
The corpse was investigated. And Gong (Sek) arrived.
Kevin and Kenneth approached him and: “Mr Chen!”
Gong approached the corpse and asked for the identity of the dead man.
Kevin replied that his identity is not known yet, his identity card was not found on the body. And his face’s destructed.
Liza, who’s examining the body, took off her mask, and turned to him and said that the man was dead a tough thing knocked his head. And his face and his front body were seriously injured; he might fell on a mirror or glass. The forest is not the crime place. She need to examine more to find out more evidences.
The Corpse was brought to the ambulance in order to transport to the laboratory.
While walking to the car, Liza lost her balance, she almost fall down, but Gong caught her up and helped her to find back her balance.
Gong: “Are you ok?”
Liza: “I am alright. Thanks. Just my head turns. It’s probably because of the hunger.”
Gong: “Don’t force yourself so much. Better think about your health!”
Liza: “I am fine.”
Half hour later, in the lab:
Sammul helped Liza to glove and to give her materials. Gong and Kevin were beside.
Liza: “His head is hit by a solid thing. His bones are broken. He must have fallen from a high place. And seeing his injuries on the face and the body, he must be fallen on glass. He died because of losing to much blood.
The place of crime must be in a house. The corpse is started rotting. He must be died since yesterday.”
Then Liza noticed that there’s something in his hand. She tried to open his hand hardly, and she found a piece of silk cloth. She took it with a claw and put in a sack transparent held by Sammul.
Few minutes later, outside:
Gong, in the car, honked to call Liza. He offered her a ride. As he knew that she’s hungry, he brought her then to a restaurant.
Liza used to go there with Sau Yin. So she feels sad to get in there. Gong knew that she’s thinking of Sau Yin, so he tried to comfort her.
Gong: “yin's been gone for 5 yrs now. But you still can’t forget him.”
Liza: “before, I told myself that he was just swept away by the water and he had arrived somewhere not knowing how to get back home, but it’s been 5 years now, I don’t know what to think”
She let out a big sigh and tears were falling. Gong gave her a tissue and posed his hand on her to console her. Then she continued
Liza: “Ok, the noodle here is delicious. Have you tried it before?”
Gong: “yes. It’s their speciality. How can’t I miss it?”
Then they laughed, and the waiter came. They asked for 2 of the chef's specials.
They smiled at each other and Liza continued to talk.
Liza: “When I first came here, it’s just a small restaurant with few tables. There weren’t that many dishes. There was only the noodle.”
Then the dishes are served. They ate happily. And about finishing the meal, Liza received a call from her sister.
Liza: “Ah lo... Ahh?
liza rushed to the receptionist desk at the hospital to ask where her son was. Gong spotted anxious Rebecca waiting in front of the operation room. Liza rushed over and asked her where’s Ray. What happened to him?
Rebecca: “My dog, Toby…”
Liza: “What? Toby attacked him?”
Rebecca: “umm… my neighbor’s dog…”
Liza: “err... So, Toby or your neighbor’s dog?
Rebecca: “… both…”
Liza: “Eh?”
After the doctor finished the operation, the nurse opened the curtain and Liza saw a body covered by a white blanket. Liza, who can't believe her eyes, covered her mouth with her hand in shock, approached the body slowly; her tears streaming down: “Ah Fung!”
Then a familiar voice came from behind "I'm here, Mom!"
Liza turned back and saw Ray
Liza: "Ah Fung! You are ok! You had me worried!"
Ray: "it's alright, just a small injury. Nothing serious"
Rebecca: "yeah, it was just minor injury. Stop over-reacting!"
Liza: (turning to Rebecca) So! What all this got to do with Toby
Rebecca: Well! I took Toby out for a walk and bumped into my neighbor with her dog. Her dog started to growl at Toby and you know Toby doesn’t like being bullied
Liza, Ray and Gong all looked at each other with a puzzled looked
Rebecca continued: “Both dogs refused to move and just started to bark and growl at each other. I didn’t know what to do, and just at this point of time, Ah Fung appeared and tried to separate them but the 2 dogs were already at war… and… well… Ah Fung just got caught in the middle.”
Rebecca turned to Ray and apologized for the accident
Ray: “it's ok, nothing I can’t handle!”
Rebecca: "yeah well you are my nephew after all. I don’t want anything to happen to you. Otherwise, your mother would hate me! But once again, your mother blamed me for your accident. Tell you what, I know u haven’t had your dinner yet, we will go home and I’ll make you some soup."
Rebecca: "wait, I need to go fetch Toby from the vet first I'll make my own way up to yours."
Gong: "why don’t I give u all a lift home since I have my car outside?"
Liza: "No, I wouldn’t want to cause you any trouble. We can get a taxi back.”
Gong: "That’s ok, it'll be my pleasure and I can try Rebecca's soup! Hehe."
Rebecca: "yeah ok. Sister, since your cars in the garage, getting repaired, Mr. Chen can save us our taxi’s fare.”
Liza looked at her.
At Liza’s flat: Liza, Rebecca, Ray, Toby, and the maid
Ray asked their maid what is there to eat while waiting for Rebecca’s soup.
Rebecca let Toby get on the sofa and addressed to Liza:
“Why didn’t you invite gong up?”
Liza: “don’t you think we've bothered him enough? Besides I wouldn’t want him to get poisoned with your soup!"
Rebecca: "huh! What you are trying to say? My cooking’s bad. You haven’t even tried it before. Let me show you what I can do."
Liza: “Not today! I am stuffed! I had dinner with Gong earlier”.
Rebecca: "oh! That’s why. Is that the reason why u two arrived at the hospital together then? (Giving Liza a wink)
Liza: “I don’t know what you are talking about. Ah Fung is waiting for your soup.”
Rebecca: “It’s too late now. I will do another day.”
Liza laughed.
