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

Chapter 387 Bizarre Case

You're wrong!

Sheng Yang unexpectedly pointed out that Xiang Yuntian's deduction was wrong.

Xiang Yuntian was unconvinced and was about to argue.

At this moment, Bai Mengfei revealed the true plot: "The story design wouldn't intentionally lead players to make mistakes and then put them in a predicament, that would be like tricking the players. So in the story, the apple and the knife must have deliberately injured the visitor's hand in some way, causing fake blood to drip into it, or perhaps no blood dripped in at all."

Boss Shengyang quickly stood up and explained, "In story mode, this is already a very late stage. Regardless of whether players have solved all the puzzles, we will provide the corresponding answers, allowing them to solve problems like the clever protagonist in the story. So, from the perspective of the story's setting, the curse of the Blood Triangle has not been activated."

"How strange! What's with these real bloodstains?" Sheng Yang muttered to himself while secretly glancing at Bai Mengfei beside him.

How could Bai Mengfei possibly know?

If she knew, wouldn't the truth of the case be revealed and the case solved immediately?

After thinking for a moment, Bai Mengfei gently shook her head, her face showing an expression of complete ignorance of the truth, and said, "Captain Zhao, you guys continue your investigation here! I have some private matters to discuss with Forensic Doctor Xiang in private."

"What private matter?" Zhao Fei asked curiously.

Xiang Yuntian was equally curious, but Bai Mengfei didn't want to talk about it here. So she rolled her eyes at Zhao Fei and said with a smile, "Just focus on your work and don't ask so many questions!" After saying that, she glanced at Xiang Yuntian again and gestured for him to come out with her.

Xiang Yuntian immediately understood and followed her out.

After the two arrived at the parking lot, Xiang Yuntian quickly walked to Bai Mengfei's side and asked with a helpless smile, "What's wrong? You seem to be acting mysteriously."

“It’s always been mysterious!” Bai Mengfei replied with a smile.

Xiang Yuntian frowned slightly, but asked with a smile, "What exactly happened? Tell me!"

"Don't you think there's something strange about this case?"

Even though it was broad daylight, Xiang Yuntian couldn't help but tremble upon hearing Bai Mengfei's sudden words. He paused, slowly frowning, looking at Bai Mengfei suspiciously, and said with a smile, "Don't joke with me like that, okay?"

Seeing Xiang Yuntian's somewhat guilty look, Bai Mengfei finally decided, "Let's get in the car first."

So the two of them got into Xiang Yuntian's newly bought car and drove around the area, enjoying the scenery along the way.

Bai Mengfei gazed at the receding scenery outside the window and asked, "Do you believe that the plot of the story will actually happen and trigger a case?"

Xiang Yuntian immediately shook his head vigorously, muttering uncertainly, "That should be impossible, right?"

“It was impossible!” Bai Mengfei said firmly. “I don’t believe there could be such a strange thing in this world.”

“Yes!” Xiang Yuntian agreed.

Bai Mengfei glanced at Xiang Yuntian a few more times through the rearview mirror, and then said, "Now this case has been made into something mysterious. I'm sure there's someone pulling strings behind the scenes."

"But we don't have any evidence yet," Xiang Yuntian said with some regret.

Bai Mengfei smiled faintly, a smile that seemed to convey a sense of relief. After smiling, she said to Xiang Yuntian, "Let's drive back."

As Xiang Yuntian turned the steering wheel, Bai Mengfei continued, "Don't even mention the lack of evidence; we haven't even found a single suspect yet. However, when I arrived, Captain Zhao told me that the higher-ups are taking this case very seriously. If he can't solve the case and find the murderer within the remaining week, his situation will be very precarious."

Xiang Yuntian nodded in understanding, and said, "I know that. When the higher-ups issued the document, Captain Zhao showed it to me. There's nothing I can do; the media is paying so much attention to this case."

"Why is the media paying attention to this case?" Bai Mengfei asked curiously.

Xiang Yuntian explained helplessly, "It's because this case is special in nature, difficult to explain scientifically, and has a supernatural element. There has been a long discussion in society about whether ghosts exist. So many people are willing to believe that ghosts are behind this crime, which is why this case has suddenly become a hot topic."

"Oh," Bai Mengfei responded softly, appearing calm on the surface, but in reality, she was still quite concerned about the matter.

After returning to the location of the escape room, Bai Mengfei and Xiang Yuntian took Zhao Fei away. Instead of going directly back to the police station, they went to a restaurant for a meal.

After all, food is essential for life; even the most capable person needs to eat.

Although Bai Mengfei's genes have become more complex, eating is still essential.

As soon as he sat down, Xiang Yuntian picked up the menu and ordered several of Bai Mengfei's favorite dishes.

Not only Bai Mengfei noticed this, but Zhao Fei also saw it. So Zhao Fei looked at Xiang Yuntian and smiled without saying a word.

After the waiter left, Zhao Fei smiled and said to Xiang Yuntian, "Look at you two, you're practically a lovesick fool."

"Team Leader Zhao, what are you talking about?" Xiang Yuntian asked somewhat embarrassedly.

As Zhao Fei took out his chopsticks, he said with a smile, "You know what I'm saying. When you get married someday, don't forget to invite me to your wedding banquet."

Bai Mengfei rolled her eyes at Zhao Fei and said, "Don't you want to solve the case anymore?"

Zhao Fei immediately understood that Bai Mengfei didn't want to talk about this topic, so he quickly chuckled and said, "Solve it, of course we have to solve it! This meal is on me. After you two great masters finish eating, you'll have to give me face and continue to help me solve this case."

Bai Mengfei also took out chopsticks, rested her chin on the back of her hand holding the chopsticks, stared blankly at the empty table, and seemed somewhat dazed.

Because in that short period of time, she became engrossed in thinking about the case again.

She seriously imagined herself as that female victim...

"Hey, what are you thinking about? The food's getting cold."

Zhao Fei gently nudged her, and she snapped out of her daze, only to find that the dishes she had just ordered had already been served.

She gradually came to her senses and turned to look at Xiang Yuntian. Xiang Yuntian blushed slightly at her sudden gaze.

This young man's shyness always carried a hint of inferiority.

Seeing that Xiang Yuntian was a little embarrassed, Zhao Fei came to his rescue and said to Bai Mengfei, "Stop staring and hurry up and eat."
