Jon fell silent for a moment before speaking calmly. "Even if Ruud and Alina truly get married, I'll find a good match for you. You're my only sister. Make some time to visit Grandfather. Last time, you upset him, and you should make amends River lowered her head and whispered, "I understand, brother."

The next day.

Tina and Jared were at a hospital, where the corpse from the previous night had been sent for examination. Jared had initially planned to review the report alone and then bring it to Tina, but since Tina was free, she decided to join him. Tina slowly approached the body and pulled back the white sheet covering the deceased's head.

Wearing gloves, she pressed on the corpse's muscles. The body was pale, rigid, and bloodless, indicating a death that occurred one to two days prior. Judging by the timing, the body had been discovered shortly after the victim's heart had been removed.

Tina observed the chest cavity. The outer layer of exposed skin appeared normal; at first glance, there wasn't even a visible incision. The person who had removed the heart had carefully cut into the skin and extracted the organ without causing noticeable damage to the surface.

She peeled back the layer of severed skin, revealing an empty chest cavity where the heart had been. The removal was clean and precise.

After thoroughly examining the body, Tina concluded that apart from the missing heart, the rest of the body was unharmed. It seemed the corpse hadn't yet been subjected to any further use.

Looking up at the victim's face, Tina noted that, even with her eyes closed, her features were serene and strikingly beautiful.

The two walked out of the hospital together. Jared wrapped his arm around Tina's waist as they exited.

"Did you discover anything?" Jared asked softly.

Tina shook her head. "Not yet. This is only the first body we've found, so there's no pattern to analyze. We'll have to see if more cases emerge to provide additional clues."
