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

Bai Mengfei continued, "If we could combine this case with other related cases for investigation and presume another suspect, it would probably be much easier to investigate."

Upon hearing this, Xiang Yuntian instantly understood the hidden meaning in Bai Mengfei's words.

"You mean to keep a close eye on Fang Kai?" Xiang Yuntian asked.

Bai Mengfei lowered her eyelids, which was taken as tacit agreement.

That evening, because the insurance fraud case had not yet been fully investigated, Xiang Yuntian took Bai Mengfei back to the neighborhood where the deceased lived.

Before even entering the residential area, Xiang Yuntian stopped the car, seemingly not intending to drive in.

"Do you want to get off?" Bai Mengfei was quick-witted and immediately understood Xiang Yuntian's intention.

Xiang Yuntian immediately smiled knowingly and then gentlemanly opened the car door for her.

When Xiang Yuntian approached her, Bai Mengfei felt her heart suddenly race and her face flush slightly.

She quickly turned her head away, lowered her gaze, and tried to avoid this strange feeling.

Seeing her reaction, Xiang Yuntian immediately understood that she had feelings for him, which was why she was avoiding him like this. He secretly chuckled, his heart filled with joy.

The two climbed over the wall into the residential area and then arrived at the room where the deceased was.

If he hadn't brought Bai Mengfei with him, Xiang Yuntian might have actually climbed up the water pipe. According to him, it was just to be on the safe side; he was worried that if someone saw him doing it, or if it were captured on surveillance footage, it would be embarrassing to face the police later.

Bai Mengfei smiled slightly upon hearing this, but she actually understood him.

After all, most men are a bit too proud to admit their shortcomings.

Upon arriving at the corridor outside the room, Bai Mengfei witnessed yet another of Xiang Yuntian's skills—lock picking.

He took out his keys, removed a key ring, bent it into the shape of a wire, and then easily turned the lock open.

"I didn't expect you to have this trick up your sleeve." After saying that, Bai Mengfei smiled calmly.

After all, this skill isn't exactly honorable, but it's certainly quite amazing.

Xiang Yuntian, being a man, didn't fully grasp the meaning behind Bai Mengfei's words. He lowered his voice and said with a hint of smugness, "That's right. I can also crack codes."

It seemed that Xiang Yuntian had misunderstood her meaning, so Bai Mengfei quickly added, "Hehe, if you ever don't want to be a detective anymore, you can switch careers and become a master thief."

Xiang Yuntian then understood Bai Mengfei's implied meaning and immediately felt his cheeks burning. He was so embarrassed that he wished he could disappear into the ground, so he quickened his pace.

Bai Mengfei followed behind as if nothing had happened.

After all, it was a long night, and there were only the two of them here. The property management staff wouldn't dare to come up rashly, so what was there to be afraid of?

There is plenty of time; we can slowly investigate this room.

Moreover, Bai Mengfei has a habit of not trusting what she sees on the surface, but rather preferring to trust her sixth sense as a woman.

It's a very strange feeling, and very few women can fully discover it.

But she was born with an exceptionally keen sense of perception, especially of her ears and nose.

She stopped, closed her eyes, and smelled the stench permeating the house, hoping to learn what kind of person the homeowner had been in life.

Just as Xiang Yuntian had predicted, this person had terrible daily habits and was not a good person either.

At this moment, Xiang Yuntian was rummaging through drawers and cabinets, a flashlight in his mouth.

He wanted to see if the deceased had recorded any relevant clues in a diary or similar book before his death.

The reason he did this was that he had fallen into a state of bounded rationality.

Bounded rationality, simply put, means that a person's rationality is limited in specific situations and at specific times, and cannot remain rational indefinitely.

The reason he acted this way was ultimately because of Bai Mengfei standing behind him.

Men often feel inferior in front of someone they like.

Although Xiang Yuntian can be considered a male god, he is not immune to the common pitfalls.

At this moment, he was completely focused on Bai Mengfei, thinking about what she had just said, and wondering how Bai Mengfei would view him now.

Little did they know, Bai Mengfei was far more mature inside.

When investigating a case, she is completely absorbed and doesn't think about anything else, especially her feelings.

After sensing something, Bai Mengfei recalled the scene she saw next to the refrigerator that day.

She suddenly opened her eyes and walked towards the refrigerator.

She went to the refrigerator, looked at the glass shards that hadn't been cleaned up yet, and slowly squatted down.

By this time, the water had completely dried up, leaving no trace.

However, Bai Mengfei remembered very clearly that there was water next to the glass shards that day!

She reached out, wanting to pick up a fragment to examine it closely.

Just then, a hand suddenly reached out from the side.

With a "snap," the hand grabbed her wrist, startling her.

She quickly turned around and saw Xiang Yuntian standing beside her.

Just as she was about to scold him, she heard Xiang Yuntian say gently, "Be careful not to cut your hand, it will break my heart."

She was, after all, a woman, and was immediately touched by Xiang Yuntian's gentle words.

The panic I felt just now vanished instantly and miraculously.

But Xiang Yuntian, shouldn't he keep holding her hand?

Realizing this, she quickly pulled her hand back. But Xiang Yuntian was holding it too tightly, and she had to use some force to pull it back.

Xiang Yuntian noticed this and quickly let go of her hand, hiding it behind his back as if he were hiding something shameful.

A big boy is still a big boy after all; it seems he's still quite shy at heart.

Bai Mengfei smiled subtly, then quickly shifted her attention back to the glass shards.

The scene she witnessed that day vividly appeared before her eyes.

I remember there was water next to the cup at the time, and the water was a bit cloudy, so the water must have been solid before that.

In other words, that water actually came from melting ice.

Bai Mengfei quickly turned her head and looked at the refrigerator next to her.

At this moment, Xiang Yuntian gradually adjusted his mindset back to work mode. He was quite talented in this area, although he was a little slow to adjust, but thinking of this, he and Bai Mengfei were in perfect sync.

The two of them simultaneously focused their attention on the refrigerator and thought of it almost at the same time.

Why do ice cubes end up outside the refrigerator?

Ice cubes don't have legs, so they definitely won't run out by themselves.

So the deceased must have done something, but we still have to get back to the question.

Why did he do this?

For a moment, Bai Mengfei's thoughts were stuck here, and she couldn't think of any more ideas.

And right now.

Xiang Yuntian snapped his fingers, looking as if he had suddenly realized something.

Hearing the sound, Bai Mengfei turned her head and stared at him suspiciously, her eyes full of curiosity.
