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

Chapter 202 Adds a New Case

Xiang Yuntian frowned subconsciously, turned his face to the side, and looked at Bai Mengfei.

Bai Mengfei knew that Xiang Yuntian was asking for her opinion, so she nodded slightly in affirmation: "Accept it!"

Xiang Yuntian then answered Zhao Fei's call, asking with a puzzled look, "Captain Zhao, is there something you need from me?"

"Yes, something's happened. There's been a murder at a school. If it's convenient for you, could you go over there?" Zhao Fei asked in a questioning tone.

Xiang Yuntian turned to look at Bai Mengfei again, and seeing her concerned expression, he readily agreed to Zhao Fei's request: "Okay, I'll go check it out right away."

"Okay, then I'll trouble you. I'll send you the address via text message later. Please get there as soon as possible; the situation is quite urgent."

"No trouble at all, Captain Zhao." After hanging up the phone, Xiang Yuntian turned to Bai Mengfei again and said, "Captain Zhao said there has been a murder at a school and asked us to go there now."

“Okay,” Bai Mengfei replied without hesitation.

Now, she is focused on solving as many cases as possible.

However, when they arrived at the school, Bai Mengfei discovered that the case was far more complicated than she had imagined. The body was found in the woods next to the school playground.

“The corpse’s nose is missing,” Xiang Yuntian said, turning to Bai Mengfei. “And it’s a woman’s corpse.”

Bai Mengfei nodded slightly, then looked at the police officers beside her and said, "We need to take the body back. Could you please help us with that, fellow officers? Thank you."

The police officers, seeing the two young forensic doctors, secretly admired them and followed their instructions.

After properly handling the body, they helped transport it to the police station.

However, Xiang Yuntian and Bai Mengfei did not leave immediately, but chose to stay at the scene to conduct an investigation.

After all, this is a crucial task.

Just then, Fang Kai arrived at the scene with his female secretary, ready to begin filming.

A question suddenly arose in Bai Mengfei's mind: Why is it that whenever this series of murders of young girls is involved, Fang Kai is always able to arrive at the scene so quickly?

Moreover, every time Bai Mengfei saw him, she would feel unwell, suffer from migraines, and feel nauseous.

So, in front of everyone, Bai Mengfei asked directly, "Reporter Fang, why are you always the first to arrive at the scene to conduct interviews whenever there is news about this case?"

"Because we media have been paying close attention to this case," Fang Kai responded.

"Oh? Is that so?" Bai Mengfei had become more mature and composed, her face showing a doubtful expression but no fear: "But I think this is too much of a coincidence. How did you find out about this? Would you mind telling me?"

Upon seeing this, Xiang Yuntian immediately went to Bai Mengfei's side to cheer her on.

Fang Kai glanced around at the people around him somewhat awkwardly, then turned to Bai Mengfei with a smile and said, "Okay, to be honest, I have a friend who works for a paparazzi team, and their information network is very extensive."

"Who is that friend?" Bai Mengfei pressed on, demanding an answer.

Left with no other option, Fang Kai took out his phone, dialed his friend's number, and turned on the speakerphone so everyone could hear.

After hearing the contents of the call, everyone believed in his innocence, but at the same time, they prohibited his reporting.

However, even Zhao Fei was furious when he saw the news later. The headline Fang Kai had chosen was: "Police Remain Silent."

This case has once again drawn widespread public attention, with a deluge of online comments and prompting higher authorities to take it seriously.

Zhao Fei was reprimanded by his superiors, and in desperation, he sought out Bai Mengfei and Xiang Yuntian.

"Do you think this case and the last one were committed by the same murderer?" Zhao Fei asked.

Everyone knew perfectly well that Zhao Fei was referring to that serial murder case. Therefore, Bai Mengfei answered confidently, "That's right, it's the same case. The serial murders of forensic doctor Bai, forensic doctor Fanghua, and several other women, all committed by the same killer."

Upon hearing this news, Zhao Fei gasped deeply.

He had originally thought that the previous cases could be put on hold for the time being and investigated slowly.

But this new case occurred at a school, attracting widespread attention from society. Suddenly, they were once again thrust into the eye of the storm of public opinion.

"What should we do now?" Zhao Fei looked helplessly at Bai Mengfei and Xiang Yuntian, seeking a solution: "I really don't know what to do! The higher-ups said there will be a press conference tomorrow, and I'm supposed to handle it. How am I supposed to explain this? Should I admit that we've been incompetent and haven't even found a trace of the murderer after all this time?"

“Since Captain Zhao is in such a difficult position, then let me face the media tomorrow.” Bai Mengfei stepped forward to take responsibility.

Zhao Fei looked at her with suspicion and asked doubtfully, "Can you manage on your own?"

“That’s right, it’s me,” Bai Mengfei replied softly but firmly.

But Xiang Yuntian knew that Bai Mengfei might not be able to withstand so much criticism on her own, so he said, "If it doesn't work, I'm here. We will give the media a reasonable explanation and account."

Hearing that Xiang Yuntian was willing to share the burden with Bai Mengfei, Zhao Fei nodded trustingly and said, "Alright then, you two will face the media tomorrow. But you need to speed up the process of this case. After all, so much time has passed, and now we have an old case unresolved and a new one added. I really don't know how to explain this to the media."

"Don't worry, Captain Zhao, I've got you covered." Xiang Yuntian had become exceptionally confident because of Bai Mengfei.

"Okay, you can go out now," Zhao Fei said.

That night, after having dinner out, the two returned to their lodgings. Bai Mengfei asked with a worried expression, "What are you planning to say to the media tomorrow? Actually, when I agreed to Zhao Fei's request, I wasn't sure myself. I just thought he was too anxious at the time, so I agreed first."

Xiang Yuntian answered frankly, "Hehe, actually I haven't thought about exactly how to say it. Maybe release a report? But I'm afraid that wouldn't satisfy the media and the public. I agreed at the time just to help you share the pressure, take on this responsibility for you, and support you. I didn't think that far ahead."

Hearing Xiang Yuntian's candid words, Bai Mengfei did not blame him for not being thoughtful; instead, she felt a surge of emotion.

Because she knew that even though he was fully aware of the difficulties involved, he was still willing to stand up for her. This willingness to take risks stemmed from his feelings for her.

She understands everything!

However, she was introverted by nature, not good at sweet talk, and did not know how to deliberately express her inner feelings. She also could not easily shed tears.

So she could only gaze at him silently, hoping he would understand her feelings at that moment.

Of course, Xiang Yuntian understood her gaze, but he felt a little shy.

Because Bai Mengfei rarely looked at him with such deep affection, this stirred a strange joy within him.
