Summary
Medical Examiner Dr. Trafalgar Law has to perform a secret post-mortem on a political figure. He is convinced that it'll be a quick job until a familiar face appears in his morgue. Why, oh why, does Okino Nami always drag him into her messes? (Or: the Murder Mystery AU no one asked for. Not even that one person.)
Formerly known as "The Autopsy". Now with more chapters, because why not? - Also posted on ff.net as of April 5th 2025 as CherishCherries.

Summary
The hospital cafeteria doesn't sell coffee. It sells the tears of beans, lamenting their unjust fates. Around Hiriluk Memorial Hospital, actual coffee can only be found at Elm & Stone. It's everyone's favourite coffee shop, not just Trafalgar Law's.
Except Detective Howaitode Smoker isn't enlisting the aid of everyone when one of the owners is found dead. He enlists Law's - and that of his mentee.
Of course, where trouble is brewing, Okino Nami isn't far, commenting on their 'investigative bromance' and expertly sifting through the dregs of the psyche - human, mink and otherwise.
Warnings: Author's sense of humour. Committed slow burn (hence the & instead of /, we haven't earned that yet). Coffee-babble from someone who doesn't even drink coffee (but you probably feel about it the same way I feel about tea). I use AI as a tool for reviewing and editing my story. The story is written by me, the AI tool merely does what an editor would do: help me find plot holes, typos and incomplete sentences or paragraphs, because no matter how often I read my chapters out loud (3 to 5 times per chapter), there are still things I will overlook.
