Chapter 194 Confrontation
Chapter 194 Confrontation
In an instant, Bai Mengfei closed her eyes, as if silently awaiting the judgment of fate.
Just then, Xiang Yuntian bravely stepped forward once again.
He, who usually appeared to be a refined and gentle man, rushed forward without hesitation. This time, he used his own arm to block the fatal blow for Bai Mengfei.
After successfully blocking the attack, Xiang Yuntian's face turned deathly pale. His voice trembled as he said to Bai Mengfei, "You must leave!"
Bai Mengfei wanted to save Xiang Yuntian and also wanted to catch the murderer, so she refused to leave.
Moreover, there was another objective reason: it seemed that something else had been mixed into the killer's sleeping potion, causing her to become weak in her limbs and unable to move at all.
When Xiang Yuntian saw Bai Mengfei still standing there motionless, he became anxious, turned around abruptly, and used all his strength to push the woman behind him against the wall.
After all, he had inhaled a considerable amount of the toxic fumes from the sleeping potion, no less than Bai Mengfei.
After pushing the woman against the wall, Xiang Yuntian shouted to Bai Mengfei again, "Run!"
He really didn't want to see Bai Mengfei get hurt anymore.
Only now did Bai Mengfei truly understand the anxiety and pain Xiang Yuntian felt when she faced danger earlier.
As she looked at Xiang Yuntian, tears welled up in her eyes, blurring her bright vision.
This scene of life and death separation was something she had never dreamed of just half an hour ago.
"You should leave now!" Xiang Yuntian said to Bai Mengfei in an almost pleading tone, feeling that he was gradually unable to hold on any longer.
Bai Mengfei realized that staying here would not only be of no help, but might also be a burden to Xiang Yuntian. So she struggled to stand up, thinking that she must find help.
However, several times she had just stood up when she fell down again because her body was too weak.
She mustered all her strength and dragged her heavy steps, groping her way outside, only able to move forward by holding onto the walls.
At this moment, everything in her eyes became unreal and illusory, as if she were in a dream.
As she finally reached the hall, she tripped and fell, and then saw someone walking quickly towards her.
At first, she thought this person was an accomplice of the murderer, but when she looked up, she realized it was Wang Tian.
Wang Tian, feeling frustrated and having nowhere to vent her anger, went to a 24-hour convenience store to buy water, unexpectedly escaping a disaster as a result.
Upon seeing someone lying on the ground, Wang Tian immediately screwed on the bottle cap and quickly walked over.
Upon closer inspection, she recognized the clothes as Bai Mengfei's, so she hurriedly stepped forward to help Bai Mengfei up and asked with concern, "Are you alright?"
Bai Mengfei heard the voice, looked up at her, and said, "Help me, go save Xiang Yuntian quickly."
Upon hearing this, Wang Tian immediately realized that something must have happened to Xiang Yuntian as well.
So she decisively let go of Bai Mengfei and got up to run to save Xiang Yuntian.
But as soon as she stepped into the corridor, she saw the mysterious woman standing there, holding a knife in her hand.
Upon closer inspection, blood was still slowly dripping from the blade, drop by drop, a shocking sight.
Upon seeing this, Wang Tian couldn't help but gasp.
She didn't go over immediately because she was afraid.
She swallowed hard, her eyes wide, staring intently at the woman in the distance.
Then, remembering that as a police officer she shouldn't be afraid of an uninvited guest, she mustered her courage and walked forward.
However, as she approached the woman, a sense of fear welled up within her.
After all, the other party was holding a knife, and the knife was stained with blood.
"What are you doing here?" Wang Tian asked.
The woman seemed to want to avoid further trouble, so she immediately took out something the size of a ring from her pocket and threw it on the ground.
Instantly, white smoke filled the air, enveloping the entire corridor.
The woman took the opportunity to escape.
But Wang Tian wasn't worried, because there were surveillance cameras everywhere in the police station. She thought the woman was pretty stupid, and she could confirm her identity and arrest her anytime she checked the surveillance footage tomorrow.
At this moment, Wang Tian was most concerned about Xiang Yuntian's situation, so she hurriedly ran to find him.
Fortunately, Xiang Yuntian only suffered a serious arm injury and his life was not in danger.
"Who hurt you like this? Was it that woman just now?" Wang Tian asked anxiously.
Xiang Yuntian struggled to sit up, but said, "Don't talk to me yet. I'm asking you, have you seen Bai Zhangting?"
"I saw her, she was in the lobby just now." At this point, Wang Tian suddenly realized something, and her face turned grim. "Oh no! That female assassin just escaped. She's likely going to the lobby. Bai Mengfei might be in danger!"
After saying that, Wang Tian disregarded Xiang Yuntian and hurriedly got up, intending to go and save Bai Mengfei.
Actually, she was overthinking it. Bai Mengfei was not so easily defeated!
Seeing the female murderer walking towards them, Bai Mengfei deliberately sat up, pretending to be relaxed and even looking at the female murderer provocatively.
"Hmph! You're about to die, and you can still laugh?" The female murderer dared not approach, fearing that Bai Mengfei had set some kind of trap, which was why she was so calm.
Actually, she was overthinking it; Bai Mengfei was imitating Zhuge Liang's "Empty City Stratagem".
"You're about to die? Don't forget, this is my territory!" Bai Mengfei said, smiling at her.
The female murderer looked puzzled for a moment, then glanced around.
Finding that there was indeed no one else there and no ambush, she said to Bai Mengfei, "Stop pretending in front of me. You must be very sleepy now that you've been drugged."
"Hehe, no way."
With that, Bai Mengfei, relying on her strong will, shakily stood up from the ground.
Although she herself felt unsteady on her feet, she appeared quite composed to the female murderer.
Especially Bai Mengfei's relaxed and carefree demeanor with her hands in her pockets made the female murderer even more suspicious.
"You're not afraid of me at all? Little girl, let me tell you the truth, I'm here today to kill you," the woman said viciously.
Bai Mengfei smiled and asked, "Do you know that I am a forensic doctor? If you kill a civil servant here, you can spend the rest of your life in jail and never get out."
The woman frowned noticeably and pulled her black mask up a little.
It seems she wanted to better conceal her identity, fearing that she might actually spend the rest of her life in prison for murder.
