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

Chapter 302 Embarrassment

Zhao Fei lowered his head somewhat ashamed and quickly put on a smile, saying, "Yes, of course I know that. Everyone needs to rest. Hehe, look, you've successfully solved Zheng Yueru's case. How about this, considering your contribution, I'll give you both half a day off."

"What? Only half a day off?" Bai Mengfei's face darkened. "Captain Zhao, today is Saturday! I remember we should have a two-day weekend on Saturdays, and today and tomorrow should be our days off. Besides, we spent our two-day weekends investigating cases last week and the week before last."

Hearing Bai Mengfei state these facts, Zhao Fei felt his face burning and felt somewhat embarrassed.

However, the case was indeed very urgent, so he had no choice but to swallow his pride and chuckle, "Alright then, the leave will definitely be granted. But can you remember this for now? We'll make up for it all at once later!"

"You can do it like that?" Bai Mengfei asked with a look of suspicion.

Zhao Fei nodded firmly and said, "Yes, that's it."

At this moment, Xiang Yuntian, who had been waiting impatiently by the car, walked over and asked, "Captain Zhao, have you finished explaining things here?"

"It'll be ready soon. How about this, if you're in a hurry, I can continue the conversation in the car," Zhao Fei suggested with a smile.

Left with no other choice, Bai Mengfei and Xiang Yuntian had to agree.

After getting into the car, Zhao Fei sat in the back seat with practiced ease and began to tell the two about the case: "Speaking of that murderer, I think that guy is simply a pervert."

"Captain Zhao, get to the point. Do you have any useful clues right now?" Bai Mengfei pressed.

Zhao Fei pondered for a moment before saying, "Those two victims should be the key to solving the case. However, the forensic doctor can only determine that they both died from stab wounds, and the murder weapon was a relatively small knife."

Hearing this, Xiang Yuntian felt that such a clue was really useless, and said with a wry smile, "Could it be nail clippers?"

Unexpectedly, Zhao Fei actually said, "That's a possibility!"

This doesn't make any sense at all! Bai Mengfei finally understood why Zhao Fei had gone to such lengths to come to her. If he were to investigate the case this way, who knows when it would be solved!

Bai Mengfei rolled her eyes inwardly, not wanting to say another word.

Xiang Yuntian saw through her thoughts, so he silently stayed by her side without saying a word.

Then, Zhao Fei rattled off a whole bunch of irrelevant clues. After he finished, he finally came to a slightly useful conclusion: "To make an accurate judgment, you two still need to go there in person and examine the body."

"Okay! But we need to rest first." Xiang Yuntian had barely finished speaking when the car arrived at the parking lot. They returned to the house Zhao Fei had lent them, as the security there was quite good.

Zhao Fei recognized the place at a glance and immediately tried to curry favor, saying, "Zhang Ting, look, I lent you this house when you were in your most difficult time, right?"

Bai Mengfei couldn't help but sigh and said, "Captain Zhao, we didn't say we wouldn't help you, did we? We just really need to rest for a bit right now."

“Okay, Xiang Yuntian, I’ll borrow your car to drive back first. You can pick it up at the police station tomorrow.” After saying that, Zhao Fei took the car keys from Xiang Yuntian and started the car without permission.

Xiang Yuntian was stunned and helpless, but by then the car had already been driven away by Zhao Fei.

"Never mind," Bai Mengfei said helplessly. "Let Captain Zhao drive it away."

"But tomorrow is Sunday! Our day off! It looks like we won't be able to rest on Sunday again," Xiang Yuntian sighed.

Bai Mengfei gazed in the direction Zhao Fei had left, pondered for a moment, and then said, "There's nothing we can do about it, isn't there? Look, Captain Zhao isn't young anymore, yet he's still working so hard. It's no big deal for us young people to do a little more."

Xiang Yuntian felt that Bai Mengfei's words made sense, so he stopped pursuing the matter.

After returning to their room, Xiang Yuntian was indeed exhausted from the journey and fell asleep immediately after washing up. Bai Mengfei was also very tired, but she couldn't fall asleep no matter what she did.

She kept thinking about Old Chen.

Did Old Chen take money from Zheng Yueru? That was a question, but Bai Mengfei couldn't ask him directly, because whether it was a criminal police officer or a forensic doctor, to convict someone, they had to come up with solid evidence.

But they have no evidence at all; all they have are guesses that everyone knows in their hearts.

This matter troubled Bai Mengfei, and she couldn't fall asleep until after four in the afternoon. It wasn't until dusk, under the dim light of twilight, that she finally drifted off to sleep.

After falling asleep, Bai Mengfei dreamed of the magnificent golden pagoda again, but this time the pagoda was filled with the stench of blood.

The dreamscape shrouded in fear made Bai Mengfei feel as if she were floating up and down within it.

"Zhang Ting, Zhang Ting..." Bai Mengfei slowly opened her eyes at the call. The person she saw was none other than Xiang Yuntian.

"Yun Tian, ​​is there something you need?" Bai Mengfei asked softly.

Xiang Yuntian nodded slightly and said, "You were sweating a lot just now, did you have a nightmare?"

Upon hearing Xiang Yuntian's words, Bai Mengfei subconsciously turned her head and saw that it was already dark, and she didn't know exactly what time it was. Having just been woken up, she was momentarily unsure whether this was reality or a dream.

Even after she went out to eat with Xiang Yuntian, she was still thinking about the scene in her dream.

Seeing that she was still in a daze, Xiang Yuntian asked, "Are you alright? What kind of dream did you have that scared you like this?"

"It's nothing." Bai Mengfei didn't want to talk about those unreal things, so she turned to the noodle shop owner and said, "Boss, give me a bowl of noodles."

"Okay, it'll be ready soon!" the boss replied enthusiastically.

After eating the noodles, Bai Mengfei felt she had rested enough, so she suggested to Xiang Yuntian, "Look, it's almost six o'clock now, and it's almost dawn. Why don't we go back to the police station first?"

"Now?" Xiang Yuntian lowered his head and thought for a moment. "But today is Sunday!"

"So what if it's Sunday? The case is still there. The sooner we finish it, the sooner we can help the police catch the killer, and maybe we can even save another life!"

Xiang Yuntian thought Bai Mengfei's words made a lot of sense, so he took out his phone and called a ride-hailing car.

The ride-hailing driver was a man in his thirties who looked like he was in his fifties. He was very kind and even told the couple, "Young couples like you at this age are more likely to run into bad people when you go out."

"No, Master, thank you for your trouble," Bai Mengfei replied calmly.
