Chapter 377 The Evidence Disappears
At first, neither Bai Mengfei nor Xiang Yuntian recognized the driver. After the car had driven for a while, Bai Mengfei glanced at the rearview mirror and finally saw the person's face.
"Hmm? You must be Mr. Du?"
Hearing Bai Mengfei's voice, the supervising instructor turned around and realized it was the two of them. He immediately looked at them through the rearview mirror, a smile spreading across his face, and said, "Oh, it's you two!"
“Yes, Mr. Du, what a coincidence!” Bai Mengfei said with a smile. “If the streetlight hadn’t shone on your face just now, I wouldn’t have recognized you. By the way, we ran into you once earlier today.”
"Oh? Really?" The supervisor's smile stiffened slightly. "Where did you see me?"
Bai Mengfei thought for a moment and replied, "On our way home today, we saw you walking home alone, carrying bags of various sizes, which looked like they were filled with a lot of dry food."
"Yes, I went out to buy food today. I never expected we'd meet so coincidentally!" the instructor said with a smile.
Bai Mengfei suddenly remembered the doubts in her mind during the day and asked, "Didn't you already get married? You married Mingjing's older sister."
"That's right, it's the bright moon."
"Doesn't your wife usually cook?" Bai Mengfei asked curiously.
Sitting to the side, Xiang Yuntian felt that Bai Mengfei was asking too many questions, so he quietly tugged at her sleeve, signaling her to stop talking about it.
But driven by her curiosity, Bai Mengfei kept her eyes fixed on the instructor, waiting for his answer.
The supervisor was silent for a while before slowly saying, "She was already immobile before she married me and couldn't cook."
"Oh, I see!" Bai Mengfei realized she had asked an inappropriate question and said no more. After the car arrived at its destination, Bai Mengfei said goodbye to the supervisor and went to the hospital morgue with Xiang Yuntian.
Since they were there to investigate a case, Zhu Heng had already given them prior notice, so the two of them were able to enter the morgue without any problems.
Guided by the administrator, they finally found Xiaoyun's body. However, Bai Mengfei was shocked to discover that Xiaoyun's fingernails had been cleaned.
what on earth is it?
Bai Mengfei and Xiang Yuntian immediately checked the surveillance footage and found that no one else had entered the place except for the staff, and no suspicious persons appeared in the CCTV footage.
"What should we do now?" Xiang Yuntian asked, somewhat frustrated.
Bai Mengfei pondered for a moment and said, "Let's go back to the police station first."
"It's so late, what are you going back for?" Xiang Yuntian asked, puzzled.
Bai Mengfei thought for a moment and explained to him, "Go back and find Director Zhu and tell him about the situation here."
"it is good!"
So the two of them called a ride-hailing service back to the police station and told Zhu Heng the whole story.
After a moment's thought, Zhu Heng concluded that Zhang Shun was the most suspicious.
But by then Zhang Shun had already returned to the city center.
Zhu Heng contacted Zhao Fei that night and asked him to send someone to bring Zhang Shun back to the police station. Zhao Fei then sent them a live video feed of Zhang Shun being interrogated.
Zhang Shun insisted that he had already left yesterday, and that his assistant and a group of colleagues testified on his behalf, and that he had no criminal motive.
After watching the video, Xiang Yuntian, who was well-versed in psychology, felt that what Zhang Shun said was true, so he nodded affirmatively and said that Zhang Shun was indeed not a suspect.
Bai Mengfei agreed, and Zhao Fei then released Zhang Shun.
Just as Zhu Heng was about to hang up the phone, Zhao Fei suddenly said, "Wait a minute, I want to talk to Forensic Doctor Zhang for a few minutes."
Zhu Heng hesitated for a moment before agreeing, "Okay." After saying that, he turned to look at Xiang Yuntian, gesturing for him to go out together.
Xiang Yuntian understood his meaning and followed him out of the room.
After everyone left, Zhao Fei asked Bai Mengfei, "How's your case going?"
"Things are going relatively smoothly, we're starting to get a clue. But the problem is, Zhen Chuan's son, Zhen Liang, has been kidnapped." At this point, Bai Mengfei lowered her head with some guilt.
Zhao Fei quickly comforted him, "It's alright, just do your best. After all, this case is mainly handled by the police station. Our police station here has encountered a tricky case and is waiting for you and forensic doctor Xiang to come back and handle it."
"Is it urgent?" Bai Mengfei asked.
Zhao Fei nodded calmly on the other end of the video call and said, "That's right, the media is paying attention to this case. It's a locked-room murder case. A man and a woman went to play in a real-life escape room. As a result, the woman was injured and is still unconscious in the hospital, while the man was stabbed multiple times and is already dead."
"Is there any chance that girl will wake up?" Bai Mengfei pressed.
Zhao Fei shook his head and said, "It's still uncertain. The doctor said that if she doesn't wake up soon, she may become a vegetable. Moreover, the situation in the locked room is very complicated, and our police have not found any useful clues yet."
"A locked-room murder case?" Bai Mengfei muttered to herself.
At that moment, Zhao Fei's video suddenly cut out.
what happened?
Just as Bai Mengfei was about to reconnect, Zhao Fei sent her a message saying that he had something to do and asked her to return as soon as possible after she had finished dealing with things here.
Bai Mengfei thought that the case here was also of great importance, since Zhen Liang was still in the hands of the criminals, so she suggested that Xiang Yuntian go back first.
Currently, the only clues to be found in this case are from the body.
Apart from Bai Mengfei and Xiang Yuntian, no other forensic doctors at the police station could find any clues to solve the case, so Zhao Fei had no choice but to adopt Bai Mengfei's suggestion.
As Xiang Yuntian walked over, Bai Mengfei said to him, "You should go back first tomorrow."
Upon hearing this news, Xiang Yuntian's expression changed instantly: "You want me to go back? What about you here?"
"I will take good care of myself!" Bai Mengfei said firmly.
Xiang Yuntian wanted to persuade Bai Mengfei to let him stay, but Kelly came over and interrupted their conversation.
Kelly walked over and said, "It's so late, aren't you two going home?"
“Yes!” Bai Mengfei immediately shifted her attention, turning to Kelly, “What about you? If you have nowhere to go, come back with us!”
Xiang Yuntian didn't want to be with Kelly, so he silently turned his face away, looking at the wall instead of Kelly.
Kelly could tell that Xiang Yuntian didn't like her, so she didn't press the issue and politely declined, saying, "No need, I have somewhere to stay." After saying that, she decisively turned and left.
As Kelly left, she thought to herself, "As long as this female forensic doctor is still around, Xiang Yuntian's heart will never belong to me."
