Chapter 509 Resignation
Chapter 509 Resignation
“I mentioned before that I wanted to be transferred here, and now that I’ve been transferred, I’m here to find you right away.”
As he spoke, Zhang walked up to Bai Mengfei.
After stopping, Zhang Jie's gaze fell on her right hand, and he asked with concern, "Does it hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt." Bai Mengfei turned her face away, not wanting to talk to Zhang Jie, afraid that he would take the opportunity to ask more questions and expose her emotions.
Even though Zhang knew she didn't want to talk to him, he didn't give up and asked softly with concern, "What's wrong? Why are you so angry?"
"I'm fine," Bai Mengfei said in a cold tone.
Zhang Jie clearly didn't believe it, and lowered his voice to ask again, "Really?"
Bai Mengfei answered affirmatively, "Really."
Chapter sighed inwardly and said, "I guess it's not because of the case, but because of your personal relationship problems. Actually, I've been in the same situation as you are now, just a year ago, when I was so angry that I punched the wall."
Bai Mengfei wasn't interested in this and said, "Go find Captain Zhao. I still have work to do."
Unexpectedly, Zhang Jie directly exposed the truth: "Actually, I was already standing behind you. I came in after Officer Wang left. You were standing there quietly, lost in your own thoughts."
"That's none of your business. I just want to be alone right now. Let's go!" Bai Mengfei finally lost control of her emotions and became angry.
Zhang didn't dare to provoke her, so he quickly raised his hands and backed away, saying, "Okay, I'll go. But there's something you need to know: all the hard work I put into passing the interview and doing all this was actually because of you!"
Bai Mengfei didn't want to hear these things, so she pretended not to hear them.
After leaving the chapter, Bai Mengfei deliberately kept herself busy, not wanting to overthink things.
In a somewhat dazed state, she casually checked the fingerprints to see if they belonged to the deceased. However, the results of the test shocked her.
The fingerprints found at the scene of the second murder were not those of the second victim, but those of the first victim.
The first victim had long since passed away, yet his fingerprints were found here—this is highly illogical! Unless the murderer tampered with the first victim's hands and feet. This demonstrates that the killer was not a spur-of-the-moment murderer, but a meticulous, cunning, and highly skilled criminal.
Upon making this important discovery, Bai Mengfei immediately went to Zhao Fei's office to tell him about it.
As she entered the office, she saw Xiang Yuntian there as well.
Moreover, there was a resignation letter on Zhao Fei's desk. When Xiang Yuntian saw Bai Mengfei walk in, he secretly turned his face away, seemingly unable to meet her gaze.
Bai Mengfei instantly forgot what she had just discovered and turned her attention to this matter, asking, "Are you going to resign?"
Xiang Yuntian remained silent for a moment before briefly replying with a single word: "Yes!"
Bai Mengfei couldn't help but laugh, nodded, and said, "Okay."
Zhao Fei looked very troubled and said to Bai Mengfei, "Try to persuade him!"
“His heart belongs to himself; I can’t control it.” Bai Mengfei’s voice trembled slightly as she said this.
With his back to Bai Mengfei, Xiang Yuntian's expression showed more pain.
Bai Mengfei immediately realized that the truth might be that she didn't want to go into business with him, so he chose Kelly.
Such an abandonment is truly regrettable. Especially for Bai Mengfei herself, who was filled with doubt: why couldn't she have the best of both worlds?
However, she didn't blame Xiang Yuntian. She just stubbornly held back her tears and coldly asked, "When do you plan to leave?"
"Today!" Xiang Yuntian answered decisively.
Bai Mengfei simply nodded, smiled slightly, and said, "Have a safe journey!"
"I will!" Xiang Yuntian replied, and then resolutely left the office.
Bai Mengfei watched him leave without saying a word.
After Xiang Yuntian left, Bai Mengfei told Zhao Fei about her discovery. Zhao Fei immediately summoned Wang Tian to discuss countermeasures.
As soon as Wang Tian entered the room, she asked, "Forensic Doctor Xiang is gone? Is he never coming back? Everyone's saying it."
“Yes, he plans to go back and take over his father’s business,” Zhao Fei said.
Wang Tian frowned slightly and said regretfully, "Alright."
Zhao Fei smiled slightly and said, "Alright, let's get back to the case. Forensic Doctor Zhang just discovered something big!"
"What is it?" Wang Tian asked nervously.
Zhao Fei looked at Bai Mengfei, signaling her to speak herself.
At this moment, Bai Mengfei was eager to forget the pain caused by Xiang Yuntian through work, so she explained to Wang Tian: "This is what happened. After I examined the body, I found that the fingerprints found at the scene of the second victim actually belonged to the first victim. This means that the murderer went to the scene again and deliberately left the fingerprints of the first victim there!"
"This...how is this possible?" Wang Tian exclaimed in surprise. "How can there still be sodium chloride in a dead person's body?"
"The sodium chloride could have been applied by the murderer, or for various other reasons," Bai Mengfei said seriously. "What's frightening is that the murderer did it deliberately; his purpose might very well be to provoke us!"
"Yes!" Zhao Fei slammed his hand on the table and said, "Actually, I've had this feeling for a long time! This is definitely a provocation, and it's extremely arrogant!"
Bai Mengfei smiled slightly and said, "However, the people he intends to harm are most likely the four boys in that dormitory. Therefore, we can start investigating this case from the other two boys."
Wang Tian immediately agreed and asked Zhao Fei for instructions: "Captain Zhao, should we investigate them?"
“Okay, go ahead and check,” Zhao Fei nodded and said.
Wang Tian pondered for a moment, then said, "Shall we go now?"
"Huh?" Zhao Fei was a little surprised, but in order to solve the case as soon as possible, he agreed.
Afterwards, they went to the interrogation room and spoke with the two college students, trying to find out if they had any previous grudges against anyone.
However, both college students stated that they had no conflicts with anyone.
Zhao Fei nodded secretly, then turned to look at Bai Mengfei, who had accompanied him to inquire. At this moment, Bai Mengfei had her head down, still thinking about Xiang Yuntian, and did not notice Zhao Fei's gaze.
Wang Tian and Zhang Jie were both getting anxious in the monitoring room.
"What's wrong with Forensic Doctor Zhang?" Zhang asked softly.
Wang Tian shook her head secretly and said, "I've never seen her like this before. She used to be very responsible about cases. She's so down now, it must be because of the forensic doctor Xiang's resignation, right?"
Chapter said "Oh," and then exclaimed in sudden realization, "No wonder she's been so distracted!"
