Chapter 360 Anger
Chapter 360 Anger
At this point, Zhen Chuan suddenly changed his tone, looked up at Zhu Heng, and said, "I'm sorry, brother-in-law, I'm really at my wit's end. I never thought that I, who have always been so proud, would have to bow down to an unknown nobody at the age of retirement. I hope you'll forgive me."
“Brother-in-law, I understand how you feel,” Zhu Heng said, his voice trembling. “After all, Xiao Liang is the Zhen family’s only hope.”
Bai Mengfei pondered for a while before making a promise: "As long as Zhen Liang is safe and sound, I will definitely bring him back."
Upon hearing this promise, not only Zhen Chuan but also Zhu Heng looked at her in surprise. In their view, this was by no means an easy task.
Indeed, this is not a simple matter. Zhu Heng even solemnly stated the seriousness of the matter: "Forensic Doctor Zhang, don't make promises you can't keep. You know the murderer, he is very likely the one who killed Lin Xueyi."
“I know, don’t you believe me?” Bai Mengfei asked.
Zhu Heng and Zhen Chuan exchanged a glance, looking at each other blankly.
Xiang Yuntian had complete faith in Bai Mengfei. He vouched for her with his own integrity, saying, "I believe that forensic doctor Zhang will definitely catch the murderer. I vouch for her; I trust her."
Hearing Xiang Yuntian's assurance, Zhu Heng and Zhen Chuan nodded slightly in agreement.
After chatting for a while, Zhen Chuan left due to health reasons. With him gone, Bai Mengfei and the others had no reason to stay any longer, so they left with Zhu Heng.
After getting into the car, Zhu Heng said to Bai Mengfei, "You really were exaggerating this time."
Bai Mengfei simply smiled faintly and did not respond.
Zhu Heng sighed and fell silent along with her. They didn't go back to a hotel or anything like that, but went straight to the police station.
Because Xiao Dong's younger sister, Xiao Yun, was also kidnapped by criminals, the matter suddenly became urgent and extremely critical.
As soon as he entered the police station, Zhu Heng said to Bai Mengfei and the others who were following behind him, "To be honest, I am really confused right now. This is the first time I have encountered this situation in all my years as a police officer."
He paused for a moment, then continued, "What do you think I should do if something really happens to Zhen Liang? How am I supposed to explain this to my sister?"
Bai Mengfei and Xiang Yuntian also felt this was a thorny issue, and both chose to remain silent.
Kelly, however, didn't think it was a big deal. She smiled dismissively, a hint of disdain in her expression. After laughing, she casually uttered an irresponsible remark: "Just tell the truth. If you can't handle a blow, then you're too fragile."
She hadn't experienced it firsthand, so naturally she didn't feel any heartache.
So Bai Mengfei immediately turned her head, her face clearly showing dissatisfaction.
Kelly noticed her gaze and glared back at Bai Mengfei with a fierce look in her eyes.
Because the glass in the police station lobby was very bright, Zhu Heng, who was walking in front, noticed the expressions of the two women and realized that they both liked Xiang Yuntian, which seemed to be a bit like jealousy.
Back in his office, he reminded them, "This matter is very urgent. I hope that whatever personal grudges you may have, you can put them aside for now."
Xiang Yuntian, unaware of their subtle rivalry, said to Zhu Heng, "No!"
"That's good." After saying that, Zhu Heng glanced at Kelly again.
At this moment, Kelly was still frowning, her face full of displeasure. In reality, all she could think about was how to snatch Xiang Yuntian away.
She came here for only one purpose.
The goal was to bring Xiang Yuntian back to the United States, but more importantly, to win his heart.
She knew that Xiang Yuntian valued this case highly, so she was thinking about how to help him solve it.
Just as she was thinking, Bai Mengfei's phone rang.
Bai Mengfei took out her phone and saw it was that strange number again. She knew without a doubt it was calling from that mysterious person hiding in the shadows.
Bai Mengfei answered the phone without hesitation and said, "Hello, what other tricks are you trying to pull?"
As soon as Zhu Heng and Kelly realized it was that person calling, they both moved closer.
Although their motivations differed, both hoped to catch up with the person on the other end of the phone as soon as possible.
All that came through the phone was that strange voice, laced with arrogant laughter: "Heh, you're asking me? Forensic doctor, that's not a question for you. I think you'd be better off begging me. If you beg me, maybe I'll consider whether or not to release this woman."
Just as he was speaking, another voice came from the other end of the phone—a woman's voice calling for help.
Judging from the voice, it's clearly Xiaoyun.
"Help me!" Xiaoyun cried out from the other end.
At the same time, the thug said with ill intent, "This little girl has such delicate skin, hehe."
In an instant, Bai Mengfei clenched her fists, which were hanging by her sides, and her voice became exceptionally stern: "What exactly do you want?"
"Haha, what do I want? Do you even have the right to ask me?" The thug paused for a moment. "Oh, by the way, I remember you're quite good-looking, even prettier than this young girl. I've liked quite a few women in my life, but I've never liked a female forensic doctor. Look at you, with your beautiful features..."
Hearing this, Bai Mengfei couldn't bear it any longer. These words were so disrespectful and unbearable.
If it were someone else, they probably would have hung up the phone long ago.
However, Bai Mengfei was still able to distinguish between what was important and what was not, so she endured it and listened to the thugs say those rude things to her, thinking to herself: I will make you pay the price sooner or later!
Meanwhile, Bai Mengfei kept turning back to look at Kelly, who stood there unmoved.
Kelly, however, seemed to be sulking, deliberately standing there without taking out her computer or phone to track things down.
When the thug seemed to get bored and was about to hang up, Bai Mengfei spoke up, "Keep fantasizing! Why aren't you saying anything more? Do you think this behavior is childish?"
That last sentence was a provocation, and it worked.
The thug, a self-righteous madman, not only didn't hang up the phone after hearing Bai Mengfei's words, but became even more agitated, angrily saying, "How dare you call me naive? Believe me or not, I'll kill this woman!"
