Chapter 424 The harder the better
Chapter 424 The harder the better
In truth, deep down, Bai Mengfei really wanted to say to Xiang Yuntian, "Isn't it all because of you? It's you who have entered my heart time and time again, making me more and more emotional and sentimental!"
However, she naturally wouldn't say these words aloud.
Xiang Yuntian considerately gave her a way out, saying, "Actually, this isn't about acting on emotion; it just shows you're becoming more and more humane!"
Bai Mengfei smiled slightly, but the smile was faint and carried an indescribable emotion.
Subsequently, Xiang Yuntian, being the boy, took the initiative to inform Liu Yunlong's parents of the test results. To everyone's surprise, Liu Yunlong's parents did not show the excitement and agitation that everyone had expected after hearing the test report.
Liu Yunlong's father appeared remarkably calm, while his mother's expression conveyed a sense of relief amidst her low spirits.
After all, they now know the real cause of their child's death.
"Don't be too sad, this is a natural death," Xiang Yuntian comforted softly. "Generally speaking, excessive exercise can also lead to this result."
Liu Yunlong's parents then slowly nodded.
"After you sign the papers, you can take the child back and give him a proper burial so he can rest in peace as soon as possible." After Xiang Yuntian finished speaking, he turned to look at Bai Mengfei, who was reluctant to approach.
After the two left, Xiang Yuntian said to Bai Mengfei, "Actually, you don't need to take this matter too seriously. It's all fate. As forensic doctors, all we can do is find out the cause of his death and give the family the truth."
Bai Mengfei forced a smile and continued, "Actually, I understand. It's just that I find it a bit strange; this so-called divine will is too accurate, isn't it?"
Seeing Bai Mengfei's thoughtful expression, Xiang Yuntian couldn't help but ask, "Have you thought of something again?"
Bai Mengfei nodded gently and replied, "Yes. I thought of Liu Yunlong's death, and then I thought of other things, such as the lightning that day, and what happened to me."
Xiang Yuntian couldn't help but sigh, lamenting, "It's true what they say, 'Heaven is watching what people do!' School violence has been rampant despite repeated crackdowns, and schools seem to focus too much on superficial peace, civility, and high scores, while neglecting the principle of 'people-oriented.' Perhaps this incident has even made Heaven intervene."
Upon hearing this, Bai Mengfei suddenly stopped and turned around to look at Xiang Yuntian with a serious expression.
Seeing Bai Mengfei stop, Xiang Yuntian also stopped, turned around to look at her, and asked with a smile, "What's wrong with you? Why are you suddenly looking at me with such a strange expression?"
"Do you think the end of the world is coming soon?" Bai Mengfei suddenly asked.
Xiang Yuntian couldn't help but laugh heartily, and asked in a doting tone, "What are you thinking about?"
However, he did not notice that Bai Mengfei's expression was very serious at this moment.
“It seems that there really is an invisible force manipulating and interfering in this matter.” Bai Mengfei’s brows furrowed more and more. “So I suddenly worry that there might really be a force that wants to replace humanity and reorganize this world? For example, my rebirth might also be its arrangement.”
Xiang Yuntian thought about it seriously for a while, then gave an answer half-jokingly: "You don't mean to say that aliens really exist in this world, do you? Don't be silly!"
As he spoke, he continued walking forward, and Bai Mengfei hurriedly followed behind. The two continued to discuss this topic along the way.
They were still discussing it when they arrived at the coffee shop. However, because there were other people around, their discussion gradually subsided.
Xiang Yuntian didn't really want to talk about this topic anymore, so he changed the subject and said, "Let's talk about something else. For example, I must find an opportunity to ask Captain Zhao for leave and then take you to Europe for a good time."
At this moment, Bai Mengfei was still immersed in thinking about the various strange events she had encountered since her rebirth. To be honest, there weren't many of those strange events, but when they were piled up, they made her feel quite complicated.
Just as Bai Mengfei was deep in thought, Xiang Yuntian said again, "But I've heard that Central Europe is really fun, and I've never been there before. If you agree, we can go to Central Europe together."
Just as Xiang Yuntian was speaking, Kelly slowly pushed open the door of the coffee shop and walked in.
She walked straight to the two of them, first gazing quietly at Xiang Yuntian, and then turning to look at Bai Mengfei.
Seeing her so presumptuous, Bai Mengfei stood up and asked, "Would you like to sit down?"
“I’m not sitting here anymore.” Kelly stared directly at Xiang Yuntian and said, “Come back with me. You were calling my name in your dreams before.”
Upon hearing this, Bai Mengfei's hidden jealousy surged up instantly. She immediately turned her head, wanting to confirm the truth of the matter with Xiang Yuntian's eyes, but saw Xiang Yuntian secretly lower his head, a look of shame on his face.
Is everything Kelly said true?
Although Bai Mengfei wasn't a psychology professional, she knew that dreams were a manifestation of the subconscious, and the heart was considered the place where the subconscious was stored. In other words, Xiang Yuntian's dream about Kelly was likely because he still had feelings for her.
And he even called out her name?
Any woman would probably find it hard to accept such a thing.
Seeing Xiang Yuntian standing there silently, Bai Mengfei didn't say anything more. She pushed Kelly, who was standing next to her, aside and said, "Excuse me, I have some cases waiting for me to handle, so I won't bother you any longer."
After saying that, Bai Mengfei hurriedly left the coffee shop.
Xiang Yuntian wanted to chase after her, but Kelly stopped him. Kelly raised her left hand and gently pressed it on his shoulder, preventing him from leaving.
Xiang Yuntian couldn't help but ask, "What exactly do you want? That matter is only your side of the story. Even if it's true, it doesn't prove that the person I love is you. I'm very clear-headed now, and I can tell you definitively that the person I love is not you, but Bai Mengfei!"
Upon hearing these words, Kelly's raised left hand involuntarily slid gently off Xiang Yuntian's shoulder.
Kelly froze, her face drained of color. Xiang Yuntian didn't know what she was thinking, nor did he want to know, and he didn't even want to look at her again.
After bypassing Kelly, Xiang Yuntian hurriedly chased after Bai Mengfei.
At this moment, Bai Mengfei had returned to the nearby police station and went straight into Zhao Fei's office. Seeing her, Zhao Fei assumed she was there to report on the autopsy of the body and praised her, "You did a very good job!"
However, that wasn't what Bai Mengfei wanted to say. She said, "Captain Zhao, do you have any other cases? Find me one, the harder to investigate the better!"
