Chapter 295 Targeted Again

Bai Mengfei quickly stood up, turned around, and ran away.

Unexpectedly, the person who got out of the car was just as agile.

Bai Mengfei only caught a glimpse of him wearing a black stand-up collar trench coat, a black top hat, and a face mask.

Bai Mengfei hurriedly ran back towards the police station.

The man put on gloves as he gave chase, his steps hurried. As he walked, he pulled a dagger from his trench coat, seemingly intending to harm Bai Mengfei.

Bai Mengfei quickened her pace, rushing forward desperately, glancing back every now and then, but each time she found that the man was getting closer and closer to her.

Just as Bai Mengfei was about to turn the corner, the man suddenly grabbed her hair. The dagger stabbed forward and was instantly pressed against Bai Mengfei's neck.

The man frowned, seemingly hesitant about whether he should really commit this heinous act.

"Who...who exactly are you?" Bai Mengfei asked breathlessly. At the same time, she kept looking up, secretly sizing up the man in front of her.

The man snorted coldly, gripping the dagger tightly, the tip of which had already slashed Bai Mengfei's skin.

Just as he was about to make his move, a beam of extremely bright light shone from the front, strikingly conspicuous.

In an instant, everything went white before his eyes, and he quickly turned his head to avoid the bright light. It turned out that the light was coming from the high beams of Xiang Yuntian's car.

Xiang Yuntian had just returned to the police station to look for Bai Mengfei, but after failing to find her, he searched all the way here. He never expected that Bai Mengfei was really here, and in a life-or-death situation.

Bai Mengfei was panting heavily, her face turning deathly pale.

The man behind her glanced at the license plate, hurriedly released Bai Mengfei, pushed her away forcefully, and then rushed back to his car.

Although Bai Mengfei was rescued, the terrifying scene she had just witnessed still terrified her. She gently pressed her right hand against the wall, leaned against it, and slowly slid down.

The series of events that had just happened were too sudden and caught her off guard. At this moment, Bai Mengfei was leaning against the wall, panting heavily, feeling weak and powerless all over.

Xiang Yuntian abandoned his car and came to her side. Seeing how frightened she was, he squatted down in front of her and carefully examined her delicate face.

"Are you alright?" Xiang Yuntian asked softly.

Bai Mengfei shook her head slightly, though her body was still trembling involuntarily.

Xiang Yuntian mistakenly thought Bai Mengfei was cold, so he quickly took off his coat and gently draped it over her shoulders, saying softly, "It's alright, it's nothing."

"Yes, I know." With Xiang Yuntian's help, Bai Mengfei slowly stood up.

Just as he was about to help Bai Mengfei leave, Xiang Yuntian couldn't help but look back. What was he looking at? He wanted to see whose car that was.

Before getting into the car, Bai Mengfei said to Xiang Yuntian, "That car just hit something, but it happened so suddenly that I didn't see the license plate number clearly."

"It's alright, it's not important," Xiang Yuntian said in a deep voice.

Bai Mengfei hummed in agreement, then said, "Shall we go back to the police station? I suspect someone; he's the one who called me here."

"Who?" Xiang Yuntian pressed.

After much deliberation, Bai Mengfei decided to mention Elder Chen, and said solemnly, "Elder Chen."

Hearing this name, Xiang Yuntian was somewhat surprised.

After all, they had known Old Chen for a long time; he was a veteran member of the criminal investigation team.

After a moment of silence, Xiang Yuntian decided to trust Bai Mengfei, nodded slightly, and then drove back to the police station.

Upon returning to the police station, the two went to find Old Chen. Old Chen was watering the plants and hadn't left yet. He was exceptionally welcoming upon seeing them.

"Hey, why haven't you left yet? It's so late!" Old Chen said with a smile.

Bai Mengfei immediately walked up to Old Chen and questioned, "Didn't you just say that Captain Zhao was looking for me? He said there was a theft case on Jiefang Road in West Street."

Upon hearing Bai Mengfei's words, Old Chen was taken aback, a look of confusion on his face. He pretended not to know anything and asked, "Huh? Is that so?"

"Yes!" Bai Mengfei said decisively. "Old Chen, how do you explain that?"

Old Chen pondered for a moment, then gently shook his head and said, "That's not true, is it? You must have remembered it wrong!"

"I remembered wrong?" Bai Mengfei said with a wry smile. "Impossible, Mr. Chen, should we check the surveillance footage?"

Upon hearing Bai Mengfei's words, Old Chen quickly changed his tune, turning to look at the flowers and plants, and said, "Perhaps I'm too old and can't remember clearly or I've remembered it wrong!"

How could he possibly misremember in such a short time? Besides, Old Chen isn't that old!

Bai Mengfei knew that Old Chen had something to hide, and understood that there was no point in arguing any further.

So when Xiang Yuntian was about to continue questioning her, Bai Mengfei turned around and said, "Alright, maybe Old Chen is mistaken. Forensic Doctor Xiang, let's go get something to eat first, I'm hungry."

After saying that, Bai Mengfei turned and left, and Xiang Yuntian hurriedly followed behind her.

"That old Chen is clearly hiding something!" Xiang Yuntian said excitedly.

Bai Mengfei turned her head, gave him a cold glance, sighed, and said, "Forget it, there's a saying, 'Don't expose someone's hardships,' you know?"

"Okay!" Xiang Yuntian responded calmly, then escorted Bai Mengfei into the car.

As soon as he got in the car, Xiang Yuntian turned around to get the food he had bought and put in the back seat. However, because he was in such a hurry and the car was going too fast, he spilled the food.

Seeing him bring over the spilled food, Bai Mengfei smiled wryly and said, "Well, it seems your drifting skills are quite good. I've seen it all after knowing you for so long."

Xiang Yuntian realized that Bai Mengfei was being sarcastic, and his face immediately flushed. He didn't know what to say for a moment.

In the end, the two of them naturally didn't eat the food and went to a restaurant instead. Since it was already very late, the restaurant was deserted, with almost no other customers besides them.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xiang Yuntian said to Bai Mengfei, "Actually, I also think that Old Chen is suspicious. Maybe he was the one who tried to kill you just now."
