Chapter 460 Discussion
Her rebirth can also be said to be an arrangement of fate.
God gave her another life so that she could bring the murderer to justice.
Whether from the perspective of public duty or because of the grudges from her past life, Bai Mengfei felt that she had an inescapable responsibility.
After a moment's thought, she nodded without hesitation and agreed to the director's request, saying firmly, "I will do my best to give all the deceased a fair explanation."
Zhao Fei stepped forward, but could only watch helplessly, unable to utter a single word.
After the section chief left, Zhao Fei approached Bai Mengfei and asked, "What did the section chief just say to you?"
Bai Mengfei pondered for a moment, then said calmly, "He just told me that I would be in full charge of this case."
"Huh?" Zhao Fei immediately looked surprised. "What about my credit?"
Bai Mengfei turned to look at Han Xue's body and said calmly, "Captain Zhao, do you really think the credit for this case is so easy to obtain? If it were that simple, the murderer would have been caught long ago after Forensic Doctor Luo's death, wouldn't he?"
After listening, Zhao Fei felt that Bai Mengfei's words made sense. He raised his eyebrows, then frowned slightly, and nodded with a conflicted expression.
Bai Mengfei turned her head and looked at Xiang Yuntian standing to the side. After watching him for a moment, seeing that he was standing there alone in a daze, she slowly walked over and asked softly, "What are you thinking about all by yourself here?"
Xiang Yuntian then snapped out of his reverie, turned to look at her, smiled faintly, and said, "It's nothing, I was just thinking about the murderer. What do you think he's thinking right now?"
Bai Mengfei gently shook her head, indicating that it was hard to say.
Xiang Yuntian nodded slightly, then fell into deep thought. After a while, he said again, "By the way, it's getting late, shall we go back?"
"Shall we go back now?" Bai Mengfei asked.
Xiang Yuntian nodded slightly and said, "Yes, there shouldn't be anything else, right?"
"No." Bai Mengfei shook her head gently and said in a low voice, "Then let's go first. We can have the body re-examined at the station tomorrow."
After getting into the car, Xiang Yuntian shared his thoughts with Bai Mengfei: "Actually, I think the murderer is acting a bit strange this time. He clearly had enough time to use the same method as last time, so why didn't he? That's one point. More importantly, what exactly is he planning?"
"Why are you so eager to know what he's thinking?" Bai Mengfei asked with a faint smile as she fastened her seatbelt.
Xiang Yuntian slowly shook his head, started the car and reversed, then said, "Because it relates to his motive, doesn't it? I think it's really necessary for me to figure this out."
"Alright." Bai Mengfei smiled gently. "But I advise you not to think too much about it for now, lest you end up like him and become a terrible serial killer, which would be terrible."
"No way!" Xiang Yuntian said confidently.
The two returned to Xiang Yuntian's house together and immediately noticed that large pieces of furniture, such as the sofa, had been moved.
After all, both of them are experienced forensic doctors, so they can naturally see through such details at a glance.
Upon noticing something amiss, Bai Mengfei immediately turned to look at Xiang Yuntian, but remained silent. Xiang Yuntian also turned to look back at her, similarly keeping quiet.
The two looked at each other for a while, feeling a little uneasy. They began to cautiously walk towards the various rooms and corners of the house, trying to see who had been there.
After searching for a while without finding anyone, the two returned to the living room.
“It seems someone has been here,” Bai Mengfei said.
Xiang Yuntian looked around and said with certainty, "It's not just a feeling, someone really has been here."
"Then who do you think it could be?" Bai Mengfei asked.
Xiang Yuntian looked at the sofa next to him and said, "I hope it's Jiang Shuai. I really hope he's safe and sound."
“Me too. But judging from the current situation, it’s unlikely to be Commander Jiang. And Commander Jiang is very likely already in danger,” Bai Mengfei said truthfully.
Xiang Yuntian nodded silently, then said, "It seems this place isn't safe anymore. Shall we go back to Captain Zhao's place?"
“No need,” Bai Mengfei said in a deep voice. “In my opinion, it’s almost dawn. We might as well wait here. If there really is someone, we might be able to catch him on the spot and find a crucial clue.”
Xiang Yuntian shook his head slightly and said, "Things aren't that simple."
"I know," Bai Mengfei said softly, "but we've overcome even the most difficult things, haven't we?"
Xiang Yuntian felt that Bai Mengfei's words made sense. He also thought that if the murderer committed another crime, the next target would likely be one of the two of them. So he decided to support Bai Mengfei's idea and secretly made up his mind that no matter what happened, he would not easily leave Bai Mengfei.
The two then waited at home. However, a whole night passed, and the murderer who was supposed to come never appeared.
Seeing that it was almost time to go to work, Bai Mengfei stood up and said to Xiang Yuntian, "Let's go, let's go back first."
"Go back where?" Xiang Yuntian asked listlessly.
Without hesitation, Bai Mengfei said, "Back to the police station."
"Oh." Xiang Yuntian nodded silently, agreeing to her suggestion, and went to the police station with her.
As soon as they returned to the police station, they saw Zhao Fei there, dozing off in Bai Mengfei's seat.
Bai Mengfei found it strange, so she went over and gently tapped the table with her knuckles.
Hearing three soft knocks, Zhao Fei snapped out of his daze and came to his senses. He quickly stood up, looked at the two of them, frowned slightly, and said, "You two are here?"
“Yes, Captain Zhao,” Bai Mengfei replied in a deep voice, “Why are you asleep here?”
Zhao Fei looked around and then remembered, saying, "Actually, I came straight back last night. After all, investigating the case is the priority."
"Then why are you sitting at my desk?" Bai Mengfei asked.
Zhao Fei chuckled and said, "Because I have something I want to tell you."
"what's up?"
Zhao Fei glanced at Xiang Yuntian standing next to Bai Mengfei, seemingly wanting to say something he didn't want Xiang Yuntian to hear. He raised his right hand, put his arm around Bai Mengfei, and pulled her aside, then said to her, "I want to discuss something with you."
Bai Mengfei pondered for a moment, and had a rough idea of what Zhao Fei was going to say, so she asked, "Is it about what happened last night?"
