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

However, Bai Mengfei knew very well that once she made this decision, she would inevitably have to pay a price.

After all, if such a move causes any adverse consequences, they will have to bear the responsibility.

This is precisely what troubles Bai Mengfei the most.

Just as Bai Mengfei was lost in thought, a loud "bang" suddenly came from outside the door.

In an instant, Bai Mengfei snapped out of her thoughts and subconsciously looked towards the door.

At the same time, a thought flashed through her mind: "Could something have happened to Xiang Yuntian?"

So she quickly rolled over and got out of bed.

But when she opened the door, she was truly taken aback.

It turns out that Xiang Yuntian was sleepwalking!

No way?

Xiang Yuntian had never experienced anything like this before.

Bai Mengfei had heard that if a sleepwalker were suddenly woken up, it would have a serious impact on his mental state, so she did not rush forward to wake Xiang Yuntian, but stood quietly and watched.

Come to think of it, Xiang Yuntian's sleepwalking appearance at this moment is actually quite cute.

Xiang Yuntian walked around the room once, then turned and walked back to his own room, indicating that he still knew the way back.

As Bai Mengfei watched, the corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up slightly, and a feeling of happiness welled up in her heart.

After Xiang Yuntian returned to his room, she went back to her own room to sleep.

The next morning, Bai Mengfei woke up and saw that Xiang Yuntian looked listless, with heavy dark circles under his eyes, looking just like a panda.

Bai Mengfei couldn't help but laugh when she thought of his usual confident and spirited demeanor and then looked at his current awkward state.

And last night when he sleepwalked, he looked so adorably clumsy, like a zombie...

Seeing Bai Mengfei secretly laughing to herself, but not knowing why, Xiang Yuntian assumed she had something to be happy about and asked, "What's making you so happy?"

Bai Mengfei pondered for a moment, then gently shook her head.

"Eat quickly! I have to go to class after I finish eating," Bai Mengfei said softly.

Xiang Yuntian quickly said, "How about I take you to class?"

"No need," Bai Mengfei refused decisively. "I can go by myself. You know I don't want my classmates to be jealous of me because of this."

“Yes, that’s true.” Xiang Yuntian fully understood Bai Mengfei’s thoughts.

Just before leaving for class, Bai Mengfei suddenly remembered the decision she had made before going to bed last night, so she told Xiang Yuntian about it as a suggestion.

Xiang Yuntian simply replied with a casual "I know," but in reality, he took the matter to heart.

In the morning, Bai Mengfei went to school, while Xiang Yuntian went to the police station to discuss the matter with Zhao Fei.

Initially, Zhao Fei thought this approach was not feasible, as he worried it would cause public panic.

Xiang Yuntian patted his chest and assured him, "No, it won't happen. We have to take this approach now in order to solve the case as soon as possible. Besides, this will give the public a true explanation, won't it? If anything goes wrong, I'll take responsibility."

Zhao Fei felt that Xiang Yuntian was acting strangely. Given Xiang Yuntian's past personality, he wouldn't have made such a decision so easily.

If it were Bai Mengfei, she would most likely do that.

So Zhao Fei stared at Xiang Yuntian with a suspicious look and asked, "Are you sure you want to do this?"

“I’m sure,” Xiang Yuntian said firmly. “Captain Zhao, just do as I say! If there are any consequences, I’ll take full responsibility. If there are no problems, I’ll go and prepare the autopsy report now.”

“No need. The new forensic doctor has already prepared the autopsy report,” Zhao Fei said. “Since you insist, I support you.”

Xiang Yuntian lowered his head, pondered for a moment, nodded slightly, and said, "Thank you, Captain Xu."

"It's okay."

Subsequently, the two of them compiled and summarized the report and published it directly on the online platform.

The news, though not deliberately sensationalized, had a wide-ranging impact. After all, everyone knew this matter concerned their own safety.

Today the murderer may only target women, but who knows if he might become even more psychologically twisted tomorrow and start killing men as well.

For a time, everyone was in danger.

……

As public opinion intensified, the streets became deserted.

In the evening, while the two were having dinner at a restaurant, Bai Mengfei brought up the matter: "What exactly did you announce?"

While stirring the rice in his bowl with a spoon, Xiang Yuntian shook his head and said, "I have revealed the murderer's modus operandi and reminded citizens to be vigilant."

"Are you out of your mind?" Bai Mengfei didn't want to make such a big deal out of it, but she couldn't help but get angry when she heard what Xiang Yuntian had done.

Xiang Yuntian looked bewildered, slowly raised his head, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"By doing this, aren't you openly challenging the murderer?"

"But isn't this exactly what we want to achieve?"

"That's true, but we can't be so blunt. We just need to let the murderer know that his every move is under our control, and then use public opinion to force him to show up. Instead of making it seem like he'll definitely be sentenced to death if he's caught."

Xiang Yuntian raised his right hand in confusion, scratched his head, and asked, "But if he's really caught, shouldn't he be sentenced to death?"

Bai Mengfei couldn't help but think that Xiang Yuntian was a typical straight man, too upright and inflexible.

Just as Bai Mengfei was about to scold him, the restaurant owner suddenly walked over and said, "Sorry, we're closing down."

"Huh? Why so early?" Bai Mengfei was very surprised.

The shop owner sighed helplessly and said, "There's nothing I can do, the security situation hasn't been good lately. Look, you're the only customers here. If you two have nothing else to do, you should head home soon!"

Bai Mengfei pondered for a moment, realizing that the boss meant well, and nodded in agreement.

After leaving the restaurant, she and Xiang Yuntian hurriedly returned home.

Xiang Yuntian realized that things had escalated to such a point that he couldn't afford to be careless. Fearing that the culprit might retaliate and harm Bai Mengfei, he said, "Why don't you stop going to class starting tomorrow?"

Bai Mengfei was secretly pleased, but she still refused, saying, "Isn't that a bit inappropriate?"

Unexpectedly, Xiang Yuntian pondered her words for a moment, considering that doing so might easily expose Bai Mengfei's true identity, and then said, "Why don't you go to class?"

"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Bai Mengfei said, somewhat annoyed.

Xiang Yuntian asked weakly, "What's wrong with me?"

"Can't you, a grown man, stand firm on your principles? One minute you're saying this, the next you're saying that."

Xiang Yuntian was stunned, staring at Bai Mengfei in surprise, speechless for a moment, only able to blink blankly.

Seeing his stubbornness, Bai Mengfei didn't say anything more, just rolled her eyes inwardly, and turned back to her room.

Xiang Yuntian was left standing alone in the living room. He didn't understand what he had done wrong, but he had a vague feeling that he really had.

In fact, Bai Mengfei was not really angry with him; she just hoped that he could be more clever and have a firmer stance.

Because she didn't like going to class, she longed to spend more time with Xiang Yuntian.
