Chapter 305 Murder
Chapter 305 Murder
As dusk settled, a mist began to rise.
With the drizzle falling and the mist swirling around it, the whole world seemed to be placed behind a hazy pane of glass, appearing exceptionally desolate and illusory.
This scene entered Bai Mengfei's eyes, mirroring her current expression. Her gaze was empty and vacant, devoid of any trace of sorrow or joy.
"Knock knock knock!"
The sudden knocking at the door made Bai Mengfei turn around.
Who could have found this place? Her former friends all thought she was dead and wouldn't have come here. So, there's probably only one person who could be here: Xiang Yuntian.
Thinking that perhaps Xiang Yuntian had arrived, Bai Mengfei really didn't want to see him again, so she didn't open the door.
However, the knocking continued, one after another, clear and forceful.
She finally couldn't resist, got up and went over to open the door.
The instant the door opened, a black hand swiftly reached in from outside and swung violently toward her head. To be precise, it was a hand wearing a black glove.
"Ah!" she cried out instinctively, gasping for breath, trying to dodge the hand.
Unexpectedly, the person outside the door flashed in instantly, moving with incredible speed. In the blink of an eye, the person covered her nose and mouth tightly with their left hand, while their right hand gripped her slender neck.
She was gripped tightly by the man and pushed against the wall.
In that instant, only one thought flashed through her mind: This is murder!
Yes, this was undoubtedly a premeditated murder!
The man moved swiftly and was exceptionally agile.
Perhaps feeling that he couldn't fully control Bai Mengfei with brute force alone, he quickly stretched his leg in front of Bai Mengfei and threw her over his shoulder.
Just then, a loud "whoosh" was heard outside, and a torrential downpour suddenly began.
Rainwater splashed on the asphalt road outside, creating sparkling raindrops.
Inside the house, a fierce battle was also taking place.
Bai Mengfei fought bravely against the mysterious man, but being a woman, she was far weaker than him and was thrown around several times.
After being thrown to the ground once again, Bai Mengfei lay there, angrily looking up at him and demanding, "Who exactly are you?"
Just then, the man pulled out a dagger about 16 centimeters long from a leather pouch hanging from his belt behind his waist.
A cold glint flashed as the dagger was raised high, almost touching the ceiling.
In the blink of an eye, the knife was about to fall, and Bai Mengfei could do nothing but stare wide-eyed and hold her breath. At that moment, her heart was in her throat.
However, just as the knife was about to fall, the man strangely stopped his movements and did not stab Bai Mengfei between the eyebrows.
But Bai Mengfei was still so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat.
Her breathing gradually calmed down, but it turned into heavy panting.
From behind the black mask, a deep and aged voice could be heard: "There are some things that are not for you to meddle in. I advise you not to interfere in other people's business."
Bai Mengfei stared at the knife tip so close to her, almost touching her hair, and with a do-or-die attitude, said, "As a forensic doctor, how can investigating a case be considered meddling?"
"That's not something you, as a forensic pathologist, should be investigating!"
Upon hearing this, a series of associations immediately flashed through Bai Mengfei's mind.
The reason this man came here to try to kill her is likely related to her visit to Renzhi High School this afternoon, and this man is very likely the murderer who killed Jiang Xia and Mo Mei!
In an instant, Bai Mengfei's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a hint of wisdom.
Because she had thought of some clues! However, she was at a disadvantage at the moment, so she wouldn't be foolish enough to ask directly.
To save her life, she chose to compromise temporarily, nodded, and said, "Okay! I won't touch things that aren't my responsibility to investigate anymore. Can you let me go now?"
Upon hearing Bai Mengfei agree to compromise, the man probably thought she was just a seemingly weak young girl and that scaring her would be enough to make her stop meddling in other people's business, so he released Bai Mengfei.
He was really careless! However, anyone would probably find it hard to believe that this seemingly young girl was already quite mature, and that her actions were merely a temporary expedient!
After the man left, Bai Mengfei slowly got up from the ground and turned to look at the mess around her.
All of this is a trace left by the fierce fight just now.
She could have chosen to report the incident to the police through legal channels, but given her current status, it would be difficult to explain why she was at the forensic doctor's house if she did so and was asked why.
So she decided to leave first and pretend she hadn't seen anything.
Just as she was about to go down the stairs, she saw Xiang Yuntian rushing up. Judging from Xiang Yuntian's sweaty appearance, he must have searched many places before finally finding his way here.
"Bai... Zhang Ting." Before he could finish speaking, Xiang Yuntian hurriedly changed his words, "I knew you would be here."
"Really? Are you so sure?" Bai Mengfei smiled slightly and held up her left hand for him to see. There was a scar on her left arm, which was caused by a glass jar that fell to the ground and shattered during the fight with the thugs.
Xiang Yuntian immediately frowned, grabbed her arm, and asked anxiously, "Why did you do this? Why take such a risk?"
"Adventure?" Bai Mengfei frowned, a look of doubt in her eyes. "What are you talking about? Even if I were to cut my wrists, I wouldn't choose this spot, would I? What are you thinking?"
Xiang Yuntian then realized he had been overthinking things and quickly asked, "So how did you get this injury?"
"This injury is a long story. I'll tell you in detail when we get back to the police station." After saying that, Bai Mengfei withdrew her hand, walked ahead, and led him back to the police station.
When the two returned to the police station, they found that it was already past lunchtime, and Zhao Fei hadn't gone to eat yet. He was in the large office directing his colleagues.
The two of them stepped forward. After Xiang Yuntian passed by, he didn't even bother to greet Zhao Fei and went straight to get the first aid kit.
His actions were quite impolite, but it was because he was extremely anxious and flustered. Bai Mengfei, on the other hand, was much calmer. She walked up to Zhao Fei and explained to the surprised Zhao Fei, "My hand is injured, so he went to get my first-aid kit."
As she spoke, Bai Mengfei raised her left hand, letting Zhao Fei see the wound.
