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

Chapter 159 Meeting

Bai Mengfei slightly tugged at the corners of her mouth, revealing a somewhat pale smile, and said softly, "Thank you, and please convey my gratitude to Wang Tian as well."

"You'll have plenty of opportunities to thank her in the future."

Xiang Yuntian smiled, his eyes full of tenderness: "Actually, there's something I want to discuss with you. Although it might not be the right time, I can't help but want to say it."

"what is the matter?"

“I will no longer object to your work as a forensic pathologist, nor will I prevent you from participating in case investigations. I just hope that after you recover, you can move back in with me. Wouldn't it be better if we investigated cases together and cooperated with each other?”

Upon hearing this request, Bai Mengfei felt a sudden pang of sadness.

She knew in her heart that this was probably something that would be difficult to achieve.

So she turned her head to look to the side, and a cold tear unknowingly slid down her cheek.

The tear, like a drop of glistening amber, flowed slowly down the graceful curve of her cheek and into her ear.

How could she not yearn to walk hand in hand with Xiang Yuntian again?

But just like today, if it weren't for Wang Tian's timely donation of that life-saving blood, she might not have survived.

Moreover, she knew that Xiang Yuntian's love for her was incredibly deep, and if she were to encounter misfortune again, she couldn't imagine what kind of pain Xiang Yuntian would suffer.

Therefore, she politely declined Xiang Yuntian's request, saying, "Don't you already have Wang Tian by your side?"

Xiang Yuntian misunderstood her meaning, thinking she was jealous, and quickly promised, "As long as you promise me, I will never cooperate with her again, and I can even get Captain Zhao to transfer her away, as long as you are willing to promise me."

"Let's forget about it," Bai Mengfei replied sadly.

Xiang Yuntian bit his lip secretly, knowing that Bai Mengfei's mind was made up and that it would be futile to force her, so he stopped trying to persuade her.

"By the way, today is your birthday," Xiang Yuntian said with a smile, trying to change the mood.

"My birthday?" Bai Mengfei remembered that her real birthday wasn't today: "No!"

"Yes, Zhang Ting, today is your birthday," Xiang Yuntian emphasized.

Bai Mengfei then realized the deeper meaning behind Xiang Yuntian's words.

She smiled slightly, but didn't say anything more.

Although her soul had been residing in this body for quite some time, she still hadn't fully adapted to this state.

Seeing the bitterness in Bai Mengfei's smile, Xiang Yuntian couldn't help but say again, "Don't be so gloomy, okay?"

"I'm not depressed!" Bai Mengfei forced a smile. "It's just that she has to spend her birthday in the hospital, and it's such an important birthday as her 18th birthday."

Xiang Yuntian couldn't help but lean closer to her ear and whispered, "If it weren't for you, she probably wouldn't have been able to celebrate her 18th birthday, let alone celebrate it in the hospital."

Upon careful consideration, Bai Mengfei realized that this was indeed the case, and she stopped dwelling on the matter.

This birthday was exceptionally simple. There were no flickering birthday candles, no sweet birthday cake, and no many friends surrounding the birthday celebration with warm wishes. All that remained was Xiang Yuntian's simple words: "Happy Birthday!"

But for Bai Mengfei, that was enough.

The same must be true for Zhang Ting.

After all, in the past, if she could avoid being beaten or scolded by her father on this day, it would be the best birthday gift for her.

Bai Mengfei stayed in the hospital for several days before being discharged, while Xiang Yuntian had already returned to continue investigating Ma Lifeng's case.

After all, he was currently in charge of the Ma Lifeng case, while Bai Mengfei was mainly in charge of the Fanghua case.

During the investigation, Xiang Yuntian noticed a problem.

The long knife wound from Ma Lifeng's ankle to his wrist was similar in technique to the knife wound on Fanghua's body.

Therefore, it is highly likely that these two cases were committed by the same person, and that person is most likely Lao Gui.

So he informed Zhao Fei of the situation.

Zhao Fei recalled Bai Mengfei's statement that she was saved because of the appearance of a deliveryman.

Therefore, Zhao Fei investigated the last few packages delivered by Ma Lifeng before his death, and found that one of the recipients was Fanghua.

As for the item Fanghua bought at the time, it was just an ordinary cup.

That day, as soon as Bai Mengfei returned to the police station, Zhao Fei felt that all the capable people had arrived, so he gathered her, Xiang Yuntian, Wang Tian, ​​and several other ambitious elites together for an internal high-level meeting.

Bai Mengfei's attendance surprised many people.

After all, she looks like just an 18-year-old girl.

"Alright, everyone's here now." Zhao Fei sat in the main seat, clasped his hands in a fist and said, "Out of the more than 430 people in our police station, I specifically selected the eight of you to come here for this meeting. Actually, there are some things I'd like to hear your opinions on."

"What is it?" one of them asked.

Zhao Fei replied, "It's the case of the murder of Fanghua forensic doctor."

Someone suddenly had a wild idea and said, "Could this be the same case as the murder of forensic doctor Bai? After all, the murderer used a knife and dismembered the victims."

Zhao Fei responded, "That possibility cannot be ruled out."

“I have been in charge of following up on these two cases, but I do not believe they were committed by the same person.”

Xiang Yuntian raised his hand to speak, stood up and said, "Although the case of Forensic Doctor Bai was a serial murder case, the murderer's methods were much more sophisticated and brutal than those in this case. He defiled and dismembered every female victim. In contrast, in the case of Forensic Doctor Fanghua, Forensic Doctor Fanghua did not suffer any violation before her death."

After speaking, Xiang Yuntian sat down naturally and subconsciously glanced in Bai Mengfei's direction.

Bai Mengfei remained calm throughout these discussions.

Of these eight people, Zhao Fei actually favored Bai Mengfei the most.

Although he saw Bai Mengfei as Zhang Ting, he highly recognized her abilities, so he asked, "What are your thoughts on this?"

“Me?” Bai Mengfei pursed her lips slightly, lowered her head, and pondered for a moment with a somber expression: “I know this is a premeditated murder case. The murderer is most likely a professional killer, probably the old ghost who was reported before. However, this person seems to be quite difficult to catch.”

“That’s right, he’s very cunning.” Zhao Fei slammed his hand on the table and said, “So the real purpose of this meeting today is to ask the eight of you to come up with some ideas on how to bring that old devil to justice.”

"Old Ghost, I once followed up on a case of a wealthy man's murder, and I suspect it was due to an internal family struggle."

At this moment, someone present recognized Old Ghost and stood up to speak, saying, "Later, the case was solved. The eldest son of the family who murdered his younger brother in order to seize the family property had asked Old Ghost to kill his brother."

"But I couldn't catch Lao Gui back then. He later committed a crime in the United States and was arrested, but only for theft."
