A forensic doctor is reborn, sir, please don't bully me!

Chapter 380 The biggest suspect

Bai Mengfei remained calm and said composedly, "Alright, enough nonsense. I'll go in if you want me to. But you have to promise not to harm Zhen Liang, understand?"

"You have no right to negotiate with me now!" The voice instantly turned into a roar.

In order to ensure Zhen Liang's survival, Bai Mengfei had no choice but to do as the villains demanded.

Sure enough, everything went as she had predicted.

As soon as she stepped inside, the door was locked from the outside. At that moment, she had no choice but to accept the situation.

Immediately afterwards, a pungent smell of gasoline filled her nostrils.

Did the perpetrators intend to burn her alive?

As a forensic doctor, Bai Mengfei has an extremely keen sense of smell, and she immediately recognized the smell as gasoline.

It seems the perpetrators really intended to set the fire and kill her!

Before long, a dazzling fire broke out outside, and the fire spread rapidly, engulfing everything in flames.

She was trapped alone in the sea of ​​fire, and her life was in serious danger.

However, she felt no fear at this moment, and her mind was not on her own safety, but on the case: "This criminal's methods are really clever. He can kill and set fires, and also destroy the scene!"

But man proposes, God disposes; perhaps it was a blessing from heaven that Bai Mengfei was favored.

Just as the fire was about to spread to her, a torrential downpour suddenly began from the previously gloomy sky.

The fire was gradually extinguished by the rain.

Through the hazy rain and the gradually dying firelight, Bai Mengfei saw the man wearing a black mask.

The man seemed somewhat panicked at this moment, clearly not expecting it to rain today and disrupting his plans.

"Didn't you even check the weather forecast before you tried to harm someone?" Bai Mengfei asked with a smirk. "Your scheme failed because the weather didn't cooperate. You're quite disappointed, aren't you?"

With that, Bai Mengfei walked towards the man without fear.

Unexpectedly, the murderer was frightened by her imposing manner and turned to run away!

Bai Mengfei initially wanted to chase after him, but after careful consideration, she gave up. She knew that even if she did, she might not be a match for this man.

When Bai Mengfei returned to the police station, she was completely soaked.

She changed into a police uniform and put on Zhu Heng's coat.

Zhu Heng thoughtfully poured her a cup of hot water, then sat down in front of her, saying with a face full of guilt, "I'm so sorry, if I had known it would be so dangerous, I shouldn't have let you go alone. You almost lost your life!"

"It's alright, Director Zhu, I'm lucky, I won't die!" Bai Mengfei comforted him while drinking hot water. "It's just a pity that we still couldn't catch him."

"He's elusive and hard to catch," Zhu Heng said helplessly.

Bai Mengfei pondered for a moment and said, "But one thing I'm sure of is that the murderer must be someone close to us, and very likely someone we've met before!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Heng's face instantly darkened.

He felt that Bai Mengfei still seemed to doubt her sister Zhu Xi.

Bai Mengfei discerned Zhu Heng's thoughts from his expression and quickly explained, "Director Zhu, don't misunderstand, I wasn't talking about your sister. I meant..." She paused, pondering in her mind who the murderer might be.

After careful consideration, she suddenly realized that the murderer was likely the same person—the Inspector!

Because the appearance of the supervisor was too coincidental from beginning to end, could it really just be a coincidence?

Thinking of this, Bai Mengfei immediately stood up and said to Zhu Heng, "Director Zhu, I have to go out for a bit!"

After saying that, she took off her coat and returned it to Zhu Heng.

Worried about her safety, Zhu Heng quickly stood up and asked anxiously, "Where are you going?"

“I’m going to the supervisor’s house. I find him very suspicious. I want to meet his wife in person, who is also Mingyue, the sister of the first victim.”

Zhu Heng looked around, his gaze finally settling on Xiao Dong.

"You go with her," Zhu Heng said to Xiao Dong.

Xiao Dong was determined to avenge his sister, so he readily agreed to investigate the case, as it was his duty.

Bai Mengfei and Xiao Dong drove to the supervisor's house and found the door open, so they went inside together.

However, the atmosphere inside the house was somewhat strange. As soon as they entered, they smelled a peculiar fragrance.

The scent seemed familiar; Bai Mengfei felt it was very familiar, but she couldn't quite place what it was.

“We didn’t smell this when we came last time,” Bai Mengfei said to Xiao Dong.

Xiao Dong nodded silently, then began to carefully observe the furnishings in the room. As a forensic pathologist, he started from the corners of the corridor, the walls of the entryway, and even the carpets, paying attention to every possible clue.

After the two entered the living room, they suddenly heard a "bang" behind them, like someone closing a door.

Xiao Dong immediately turned around and walked towards the entrance. He saw that the door was already closed, so he quickly stepped forward, grasped the doorknob, and tried to open it. However, after trying, he found that the door was locked from the inside.

Xiao Dong's heart tightened, and he panicked. He quickly called Bai Mengfei over.

Bai Mengfei was wondering why there was no one in the house, but after hearing Xiao Dong's voice, she came over.

"The door is locked from the inside!" Xiao Dong said anxiously to Bai Mengfei.

Bai Mengfei stretched out her right hand and tried to open the door as well. But after trying, she found that the door couldn't be opened at all, so she said to Xiao Dong, "Forget about the door for now, finding someone is the priority. We'll think of a way to open the door later."

At this point, Xiao Dong was at a loss and had no choice but to follow Bai Mengfei's arrangements.

So the two returned to the living room and called out the names of Dulian and Mingyue. However, the room was silent, and no one responded.

"That's strange, no one's here, so why is the door open?" Xiao Dong muttered to himself.

Bai Mengfei already had a plan in mind; she sensed that this was likely a trap. If that were the case, it meant the murderer was very likely the Inspector!

Instead of panicking, she smiled gently.

Xiao Dong frowned when he saw her smile and asked in confusion, "Why are you suddenly smiling so strangely? Are you alright?"

Before she could be certain, Bai Mengfei didn't want to tell Xiao Dong her guess too early, fearing that she would disappoint him if the truth was not so.

So she silently shook her head and said, "Let's search each room. Maybe the person is here, just asleep."

After saying that, she turned around first and walked down the corridor, calling out as she went, "Mr. Du..."

As she called out to the training instructor, she became even more convinced that the murderer was the instructor.

Because she remembered that the coach's profession was a programmer, which she already knew.

The difficulty of this case lies precisely in the fact that the murderer used the internet to commit the crime, which made her even more suspicious of the supervisor's identity.
