The hot July finally arrived. The heat outside was nearly 40 degrees, it was so hot that it made people panic. The air conditioner inside the SCI's office was turned on. Zhao Hu and Zhang Long felt so hot that they kept fanning themselves.

The criminals had ceased all their activities perhaps due to the hot weather. Thus, this group of elites in the SCI have recently been so idle, that they were about to grow mushrooms. (Note: This was a direct translation, as I was unsure what it meant exactly)

Zhan Zhao was the busiest person, because his previous books had sold extremely well. He was now a best-selling writer. With one call after another, the editors would break into the police station to grab the manuscripts, due to the serious delays on the drafts. Zhan Zhao was afraid to go out these days, because he was afraid of being caught by the editors.

Bai Yutang would do workouts in the break room. His elder brother bought a whole set of fitness equipment for SCI to put in the break room. The idle white mouse could only exercise to deplete his excessive energy. Experience had taught him that he should not provoke a certain cat, who was in a hurry to complete the manuscripts. Once provoked, Bai Yutang would be scratched, and the cat would say with grievance afterwards, "It's all because you're messing with me that I didn't have time to finish it!" So, cats are really an extremely cunning animal.

Bai Chi had recently become Zhan Zhao's super fan, reading through the books. He was even faster than editors in pressing for the manuscripts.

Both Ma Han and Zhao Hu's mobile phones were turned off throughout the day. Otherwise, they would be found by some vicious female stars, and then afterwards, there would be no more peace. Gong Sun was even more idle. His weird habit had started to occur again. When he had nothing to do, he would watch horror movies in the medical examiner's room. The medical examiner's room was originally a forbidden place. It often had sounds of ghosts crying, accompanied by cold laughter. It frightened everyone so much that they did not dare to look inside the room. Even a fly did not dare to fly past the medical examiner room's door.

Luo Tian's injury had healed a long time ago. He currently lived in the police dormitory with Yang Yang. Except, he was very obedient towards his son. Not only did he do all the housework, he was also always criticized under the care of the little guy. The current Luo Tian had fully adapted to modern life. He also looked a lot younger. Recently, Luo Yang had been looking everywhere to find a stepmother. However, there were no good candidates.

"Hu..." Bai Yutang breathed out a sigh as he came down from the equipment. Zhang Long poked his head inside the room. He shook his head while looking, "Boss, are you trying to turn into Rambo? Tsk tsk. Look at that figure."

Bai Yutang looked towards the several onlookers outside and frowned, "You guys should also exercise. You can't eat and gain weight everyday just because you don't have a case!" As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a cold stare. The mouse was instinctively startled, as he looked over and saw Zhan Zhao giving him the death stare. Bai Yutang quickly shut his mouth. Why was the cat so angry? It was probably because he had not finished writing. It would be better not to provoke him.

Bai Yutang walked to the bathroom with a towel, as the mobile phone rang with a 'Meow ~' sound. It was a text message. He opened it and saw that it was from Luo Yang, "Go to a place where there is no one, then call me."

Bai Yutang blinked, then turned and saw that Luo Tian was engrossed in Luo Yang's textbook. Bai Yutang said to himself -- Did the little guy get into trouble?

After walking into the bathroom, Bai Yutang turned on the tap and dialed Luo Yang, "Hey, what's wrong?"

"Uncle Bai ~" Luo Yang's cry was so sweet that it almost made Bai Yutang's teeth fall out. He had goosebumps, as he wiped his sweat and laughed, "What, are you in trouble again?"
