A forensic doctor is reborn, sir, please don't bully me!
Chapter 553 I'm Not Playing Tricks on You
"If you're a forensic pathologist, then I'm the judge!" The local police officer looked on with suspicion, not believing Xiang Yuntian's words at all. "Besides, can't a forensic pathologist do theft? What we're seeing right now is that you're attempting to steal from this warehouse. Come with us!"
And so, Xiang Yuntian and Bai Mengfei were handcuffed by the police and taken directly to a police car.
Back at the police station, they faced interrogation by the officers.
"I really am a forensic doctor. Didn't you see my credentials? You can call Captain Zhao to verify my identity," Xiang Yuntian explained urgently.
Bai Mengfei, on the other hand, appeared remarkably calm.
She knew in her heart that she had been deliberately set up this time, and the person behind it was either powerful and influential or extremely intelligent. But she firmly believed in her heart that this person could not possibly be Xiang Yuntian, because she knew that Xiang Yuntian would not harm her.
The two were detained until after 11 p.m. before they heard that someone had come to bail them out.
As soon as they stepped out of the police station, they saw Zhao Fei.
Because procedures had to be followed, Zhao Fei, in front of the local police officers, severely criticized and educated the two men, shouting, "How could you be so reckless? You don't even think before you act..."
Xiang Yuntian and Bai Mengfei listened silently to Zhao Fei's scolding without uttering a sound.
After the three left the police station and got into the car, Zhao Fei explained, "In that situation, if I hadn't done that, I would have been in a very difficult position myself."
“We understand, Captain Zhao, let’s drive.” Bai Mengfei expressed her understanding.
At this moment, Xiang Yuntian sat in the back seat, his head resting against the car window, seemingly deep in thought.
Zhao Fei saw it through the rearview mirror and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
"I'm wondering why the criminals contacted me specifically? My relationship with Officer Wang at the police station wasn't that good."
Upon hearing Xiang Yuntian's words, Zhao Fei immediately felt that his suspicions were quite reasonable, so he asked, "So what do you think now?"
Xiang Yuntian was silent for a moment, then took a deep breath and said, "I think this is very likely a prank orchestrated by Officer Wang himself. No, I mean, it's possible that Officer Wang himself played this prank."
Seeing that Xiang Yuntian's thoughts were somewhat confused, Bai Mengfei used the process of elimination to help him analyze the situation, saying, "The first speculation is possible, but the second is unlikely. Officer Wang wouldn't be so reckless."
Xiang Yuntian thought Bai Mengfei's words made sense, and couldn't help but click his tongue and frown, saying, "Then why would he frame me? Could it be the person who attacked us last night?"
"Probably not, this still needs further investigation," Bai Mengfei replied.
Hearing their conversation, Zhao Fei asked in surprise, "What? Someone attacked you last night? Did you see what that person looked like?"
“No, but he was hit with a stone by forensic doctor Xiang,” Bai Mengfei said.
Zhao Fei actually laughed: "That's good, as long as you're all alright. People like that deserve to be taught a lesson!"
Xiang Yuntian shook his head repeatedly.
After having dinner with the two, Zhao Fei personally escorted them back to the room he had arranged.
Before leaving, he repeatedly reminded them, "Remember to lock the doors and windows properly, and never let strangers sneak in, understand?"
"Understood, Captain Zhao," Bai Mengfei replied.
Xiang Yuntian, however, kept holding his phone, as if waiting for something.
Bai Mengfei gently closed the door, walked over slowly, and asked curiously, "What are you looking at?"
Xiang Yuntian looked up at her, sighed, and said, "I'm not looking, I'm waiting, waiting for something that I should wait for, or perhaps I shouldn't."
Bai Mengfei didn't find his words obscure and difficult to understand. Instead, she moved closer and said understandingly, "To put it bluntly, you're just waiting for that criminal to call you, right? Because only if he contacts you will you have a chance to save Officer Wang."
Xiang Yuntian nodded affirmatively: "That's right. But given the current situation, it's really hard to say whether we can wait until then."
After thinking for a moment, Bai Mengfei said, "Then you wait here, I'll go wash up first." It wasn't that Bai Mengfei didn't want to save Wang Tian, nor that she wasn't worried about her; she just wanted to calm herself down as much as possible.
Xiang Yuntian, however, was somewhat puzzled and said disappointedly, "Okay, go ahead."
Bai Mengfei took the clothes into the bathroom. In the running water, she kept sorting out the whole incident and thought about the legend of that photo. She couldn't help but wonder: Could this legend really be true?
Although the possibility is extremely slim, Bai Mengfei still prefers to believe that the legend may have some truth to it.
After washing for a long time, Bai Mengfei still couldn't figure it out, so she turned off the shower, got dressed, and came out.
Xiang Yuntian was unaware that Bai Mengfei was actually quite concerned about Wang Tianhe's matter, and assumed that she was truly indifferent, so he asked, "Don't you have anything to say?"
"What?" Bai Mengfei asked, pretending not to understand.
Xiang Yuntian shook his head helplessly and said, "Okay, it's nothing. Get some rest."
After saying that, he seemed to realize that something was amiss, and explained to Bai Mengfei, "Actually, the reason I care so much about this case is not because of Officer Wang."
"Oh," Bai Mengfei replied seemingly nonchalantly, "Actually, it doesn't matter even if it's because of her."
Upon hearing this, Xiang Yuntian looked puzzled and asked, "Why do you say that?"
“After all, we were colleagues. Now that she’s gone missing, it’s normal for you to be worried about her,” Bai Mengfei said as she lay down on the bed.
Xiang Yuntian couldn't help but ask, "Don't you care at all?"
"What do you think?" Bai Mengfei's question had already given Xiang Yuntian the answer.
Xiang Yuntian also understood that Bai Mengfei actually cared about Wang Tian, but she was used to keeping that concern to herself.
After all, Bai Mengfei is sometimes like this; the more nervous she is inside, the more serious and calm she appears on the surface.
After Bai Mengfei fell asleep, Xiang Yuntian still hadn't received a call, so he decided to go to sleep as well.
However, in the middle of the night, his phone, which was placed beside his pillow, vibrated. Before it even rang, he, a light sleeper, immediately picked up the phone and answered the call.
"Want to see her? Then trust me one more time! I swear on my integrity, I won't play you this time!"
