In front of the floor-length mirror, Zhou Xu awkwardly tied his tie.

Today he was wearing a black suit, looking very formal, and even the leather shoes he wore were shiny.

Lu Zhiqiu looked at him from the side and saw that he was grinding, so he simply walked forward and helped him tie his tie, and also straightened the edges of his clothes.

"I really don't understand what kind of suit the foreign minister wears. Is it easier to move like this?" she complained.

In order to cope with the upcoming disaster in Binhai City, the teaching policy of Fortune Master College has been adjusted. From today on, all students will enter different departments in Binhai City to conduct social practice.

In line with the principle of respecting students' wishes, the college sent out a form two days ago for students to fill in their preferred department.

Zhou Xu chose the Department of Foreign Affairs and was admitted. Today is the first day of work!

Since all departments of Binhai City are located in the urban area, it is inconvenient to live in dormitories, so the college allows students to live at home.

Dean Zhong Taiyan also moved into the city. Next, he was no longer just the dean of the Fortune Master Academy, but the wartime commander-in-chief of Binhai City!

Zhou Xu moved back home as a matter of course, so that it would be convenient to go to work in the Foreign Affairs Department and receive guidance from Zhong Taiyan.

"On the first day of work, formal attire is required. It doesn't seem to interfere with what you wear afterward."

Zhou Xu smiled kindly at himself in the mirror. He heard that employees in the Foreign Affairs Department had to come into contact with a large number of people in society, so it was best to practice good expression management.

"Oops, the time is almost up. Auntie, I have to leave first!"

Zhou Xu looked at his watch, was startled, and hurried out.

"Wait, bring the breakfast."

Lu Zhiqiu stuffed breakfast into Zhou Xu's hand. Zhou Xu took it and ran out the door immediately.

Lu Zhiqiu came to the window, smoked a cigarette, and watched the youthful young man downstairs leave in a hurry.

"Time flies so fast..."

After running all the way, Zhou Xu finally entered the gate of the Foreign Affairs Department before work time.

At this time, he was so hungry that he had time to look at the breakfast that his aunt had given him.

From the looks of it, this should be a sandwich, with the dark inside looking like eggs and bacon.

Smelling the burning smell, Zhou Xu comforted himself that at least the lettuce inside was not burnt.

After gulping down the sandwich, Zhou Xu came to the office, only to find that there was no one there.

Just when he was surprised, his cell phone rang.

"Come to the door, why are you late on the first day?" A stern, unhappy male voice came from the mobile phone.

Zhou Xu quickly ran out of the office building, and a car beeped twice at the door to remind him.

"Classmate Zhou Xu, this way."

Hu Xinxin poked her head out of the rear window.

Zhou Xu hurriedly got into the car, and the driver was a man with a scar on his face.

"We meet again. I didn't expect you to fall into my hands so quickly." The scarred man said with a smile, changing his tone on the phone before.

"What a coincidence."

Zhou Xu was quite surprised. This person was the scarred man who had previously served as the rating officer with Shen Zhu and Yunque.

By the way, Shen Zhu said that Scar Man is from the Foreign Affairs Department just like her!

"Just call me Brother Qiu. From today on, you will work under me."

Brother Qiu said, and then started the car.

"I heard that both of you have become E-class fortune tellers. I didn't expect it to be so fast. Especially you, Zhou Xu, I heard that your performance in the license examination was very good." Brother Qiu chatted while driving, without his identity as an examiner.

, he seems to have become much more talkative and not as fierce as he seems on the surface.

"It's just good luck. I almost didn't survive." Zhou Xu replied.

"Luck is also a part of strength. As fortune tellers, we need luck." Brother Qiu said casually.

"Brother Qiu, where are we going?" Zhou Xu asked curiously.

"The work in the Department of Foreign Affairs basically involves traveling around the city every day, and I rarely stay in the office. An unusual incident occurred at Binhai University this morning, and we have to go over and deal with it now," Brother Qiu said.

Binhai University?

A bright smiling face couldn't help but appear in Zhou Xu's mind.

Soon the car drove to Binhai University. At the school gate, Brother Qiu showed his ID card from the Department of Foreign Affairs. The security guard did not dare to neglect and immediately let him go.

The highway of Binhai University is very neat, with trees and flowers on both sides.

Through the gaps between green trees, you can see lakes, lawns and small fresh buildings from time to time.

Zhou Xu looked at it curiously. If he had not become a fortune teller, he would have enrolled in Binhai University by now.

Life is like this, one choice, one opportunity, the future will be very different.

Hu Xinxin also watched with some envy. Some students were running around on the football field, while others were reading on the benches by the lake.

Suddenly, she saw a man and woman kissing obliviously on the side of the road. She blushed and turned around, just in time to see Zhou Xu.

Dappled sunlight shone on Zhou Xu's face through the car window, and the breeze blew his bangs.

Sunny and handsome.

Just like in high school, he always leaned on the railing in the corridor, looking at the blue sky and not knowing what he was thinking.

She always passed by him at that time, but he never noticed her.

Now, the two of them were sitting in a car.

Hu Xinxin lowered her head and showed a delighted smile.

The car drove to the downstairs of a boys' dormitory. At this time, the downstairs had already been cordoned off by people from the Public Security Department.

A large number of students gathered downstairs in the dormitory, talking about it.

Zhou Xu and the others got out of the car, and the people from the Public Security Department immediately cleared the crowd and invited the three of them into the dormitory building.

Generally, criminal cases involving dead persons are handled by the Public Security Department, but when biological abnormalities are involved, they are handed over to the Department of Strange Affairs.

The incident took place on the fifth floor. The three people were led by officers from the Public Security Department into a dormitory in the corner.

As soon as we entered the dormitory, the scene was shocking!

I saw an old male corpse lying on the ground. Before death, his eyes were wide open with red eyes, holding a water glass in his hand, and half of his body was burnt.

If he hadn't seen the horrific scene in the trial town, Zhou Xu doubted whether he would have vomited his breakfast today.

"Who is this person? Why did he die in the student dormitory? Is there no one living in this dormitory?" Brother Qiu asked.

"This person is the student who lives here, his name is Sun Cailiang. Although it is hard to understand, his classmates have identified him, and it is indeed him."

"Last night was the weekend, and Sun Cailiang's roommates all went out to rent a room, and he was the only one staying in the dormitory. When his roommate came back this morning, the dormitory door could not be opened, and no one answered the knock on the door, and the window curtains were still closed.

"

"One roommate tried to pry open the window and open the curtains, only to see Sun Cailiang's body on the ground. He was so frightened that he is still speechless."

"After the school called the police, we inspected the scene and found that the dormitory door was locked from the inside, the balcony door was also locked tightly, and the curtains were drawn on both sides, as if we didn't want people to see what was going on inside."

The man from the Department of Public Security spoke in detail, and while he was speaking, Zhou Xu boldly stepped forward.

He found that the water cup held by the deceased seemed to have spilled a lot of water, and the water flowed to the ground and actually condensed into ice cubes, which have not completely melted yet!

"It's a secret room, and the body is aging inexplicably. It seems to be a biological abnormality."

Brother Qiu frowned. This case was really weird. Even in the Department of Foreign Affairs, which often dealt with such things, he had never heard of similar cases.

Taking out an energy detector from his pocket, Brother Qiu approached the body and soon found that the pointer of the detector moved.

"There is life energy left. Did the life master kill him?"

Brother Qiu muttered to himself, a little confused.

Cases of murder by fortune tellers are actually not uncommon. In the past, some ordinary people accidentally awakened their destiny, and after gaining power, they would take revenge on those who had conflicts with them in daily life.

This is also the reason why fortune tellers must register. If fortune tellers with special powers are not controlled, various problems may easily arise.

But the fortune teller just kills people, so why create the illusion of a secret room?

Could it be that the murderer thought that people who saw the deceased would think he had committed suicide?

Brother Qiu was puzzled. After examining the body, he asked, "What did you two find?"

Zhou Xu then brought up the problem of water on the ground. Brother Qiu couldn't help but shake his head. "This case becomes even more bizarre."

Hu Xixin picked up a few books from the deceased's desk, "This person seems to be very interested in things related to fortune tellers. There are many miscellaneous books on this subject on the bookshelf."

This was barely a discovery. Brother Qiu mused: "The corpse was inexplicably old and charred, and there were signs of freezing next to it. The results of the autopsy are very important. Further judgment must wait for the forensic doctor."

Next, I followed the procedure to check if there were any other abnormalities nearby, and also interrogated many students on the same floor. By the time I left the dormitory, it was already noon.

"Let's go eat. What do you want to eat?"

Brother Qiu asked. At this time, someone in the crowd called Zhou Xu's name.
