"Madam, would you like a glass of water?"
Aunt Zhang, seeing that her eyes were only red and there were no other signs of discomfort, asked.

She was awakened by the ringtone of her cell phone—it was a call from Director Huang, her work supervisor.
"Forensic Doctor Mai, do you have something going on today? Why aren't you at work yet?"
