Chapter 462 Jiang Shuai's Accident
Bai Mengfei smiled faintly, but did not speak.
At this moment, she was extremely agitated, with countless "whys" swirling in her mind, all of which were closely related to this case.
In fact, she longed to uncover the killer's true identity more than anyone else. Because that killer was the very person who had taken her life in her past life.
Upon returning to the morgue, Bai Mengfei appeared distracted. On the surface, she focused on the autopsy, but her thoughts had already drifted far away, preoccupied with the identity of another murderer. This killer seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, leaving no trace.
Xiang Yuntian keenly noticed her unusual behavior, stepped forward, and asked softly, "What are you thinking about?"
“I was thinking about that mysterious murderer. He seemed to have appeared out of nowhere.” Bai Mengfei slowly turned her head to look at Xiang Yuntian beside her. “Aside from the fact that his methods were not as skillful as the previous murderer, his methods were equally ruthless and no less so than the previous murderer. Both of them were ruthless people.”
Xiang Yuntian suddenly sighed and expressed his worries: "I'm more worried about Jiang Shuai's safety now. Actually, I really want to ask Captain Zhao for help, but I'm afraid he's also helpless. If he had a way, he would have brought the murderer to justice long ago."
Bai Mengfei secretly observed Xiang Yuntian's anxious expression and said, "It's always good to have another way. Shall I go with you?"
Xiang Yuntian thought Bai Mengfei's words made sense, and silently nodded in agreement with her suggestion.
The two then went to Zhao Fei's office together.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Fei was not there. They waited for a full half hour, but Zhao Fei did not appear.
"I really don't know where Zhao Fei has run off to," Bai Mengfei said helplessly. "Forget it, let's not wait for him."
"Then what should we do?" Xiang Yuntian said with a wry smile.
Bai Mengfei lowered her gaze slightly and turned to look in the southeast direction, which was the location of the morgue.
She blinked secretly, then turned to look at Xiang Yuntian and said, "Perhaps we can find the truth from Han Xue's body."
"Things are probably not that simple," Xiang Yuntian said.
Bai Mengfei, however, was not discouraged and said firmly, "This is the second case committed by the murderer, and the murderer's method is relatively ordinary. So I believe that we should be able to find a lot of useful clues from the body."
Seeing Bai Mengfei's certainty, Xiang Yuntian nodded, agreeing with her point of view, and said, "Alright then, let's go to the morgue and take another look at that body."
However, just as the two were about to leave Zhao Fei's office, Zhao Fei returned.
As soon as Zhao Fei saw them, he asked, "What brings you here?"
"Yes, something happened to Jiang Shuai. Where did you go just now?" Xiang Yuntian asked anxiously.
Zhao Fei thought for a moment and then confessed, "I was called over by my superiors, but it's all over now. Is the Jiang Shuai you're talking about your good friend?"
"Yes, that's him!" Xiang Yuntian said nervously. "Captain Zhao, help me find him!"
“This is a bit tricky. Tell me the whole story in detail, and tell me how you found out he was missing,” Zhao Fei said.
Xiang Yuntian trusted Zhao Fei completely, so he told him the whole story.
After listening, Zhao Fei nodded and said he would go to the mall to investigate immediately. Bai Mengfei and Xiang Yuntian were left at the police station.
Zhao Fei made this arrangement for two reasons: first, to protect their safety; and second, to have them stay at the police station to continue the autopsy so that the case could be solved as soon as possible.
After several twists and turns, the two finally returned to the morgue to conduct an autopsy.
The examination continued until exactly noon before Xiang Yuntian removed his mask and said, "The deceased only had this one wound. We didn't find any marks on his fingernails or other areas, and his mouth was intact. Shall we go eat first?"
Bai Mengfei insisted, "No, I'm not going. You go first if you're hungry."
Xiang Yuntian was worried that Bai Mengfei would ruin her health by pushing herself like this, so he advised her, "Don't be so stubborn. You haven't even eaten breakfast. Your body won't be able to take it if you keep going like this."
After Xiang Yuntian's persistent persuasion, Bai Mengfei finally agreed, "Alright, let's go to the police station's restaurant for dinner."
The food in the police station cafeteria wasn't very good, but it was good at solving the problem of getting a meal quickly.
Xiang Yuntian reluctantly conceded, saying, "Alright, let's go then."
When the two arrived at the restaurant, they saw Wang Tian eating. Since there were no empty seats and Wang Tian was alone, they carried their plates over to her.
As soon as Xiang Yuntian sat down, he heard Wang Tian say, "Someone came looking for you this morning. I know you definitely didn't want to see her, so I told her you weren't here."
"Who is it?" Xiang Yuntian asked.
While eating casually, Wang Tian said, "Who else could it be but Kelly!"
"Kelly?" Xiang Yuntian suddenly remembered that Kelly was also Jiang Shuai's good friend, and thought that Kelly might know something about Jiang Shuai.
So he quickly took out his phone and called Kelly.
After waiting for about ten seconds, Kelly finally answered the phone.
"Hey, Kelly, did you come looking for me this morning?" Xiang Yuntian asked.
Kelly replied, "Yes, but your colleague said you weren't here. Actually, I have something to tell you: Jiang Shuai has been arrested!"
"What? You really know about this?" Xiang Yuntian said in surprise.
As he spoke, he turned to look at Bai Mengfei beside him. Bai Mengfei also stopped what she was doing upon hearing this news and looked back at Xiang Yuntian in surprise.
Xiang Yuntian then asked, "Did you see the specific process?"
“Yes, I saw it, that’s why I called to tell you,” Kelly said nervously. “I don’t even know where to begin.”
After considering for a moment, Xiang Yuntian said, "It's alright, take your time."
"Okay, I suspect that the people who arrested Jiang Shuai were soldiers. Sigh, I really don't know how to explain this to you. How about we meet and talk in person?"
For Jiang Shuai's sake, Xiang Yuntian had no choice but to agree to Kelly's request.
It was past 2 PM, which should have been working hours, but Xiang Yuntian and Bai Mengfei were waiting for Kelly at the restaurant. They had been waiting for an hour, but Kelly still hadn't appeared.
Bai Mengfei was a little anxious and said, "Why don't you call her again? I'm just afraid something might have happened to her."
Xiang Yuntian thought Bai Mengfei's words made sense. Just as he picked up the phone to make a call, he saw Kelly hurrying towards the restaurant.
