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

Touching that slippery, cold snake's body with her own hands, it would be a lie to say she wasn't afraid. Bai Mengfei was, after all, just an ordinary person, and a girl at that; fear was inevitable. She stood there stunned for a while before gradually regaining her composure and letting out a long sigh.

Once her heartbeat returned to normal, she turned away, intending to leave this terrifying place. Just then, in a casual glance, she saw what appeared to be a figure flash past at the bottom of the stairs.

Because the person moved so fast, she didn't have time to see who it was.

She desperately hoped that the person would be Xiang Yuntian, so she quickly ran downstairs, but the first floor was empty, and there was no one in sight. She lowered her head slightly and fell into a brief moment of contemplation.

Soon, she frowned, thinking to herself, "I can't always let this person lead me by the nose, otherwise I'll be trapped in his so-called game forever."

Having figured this out, she immediately focused her attention and decided to no longer rely on the clues provided by the other party. She slowly walked to the door, determined to find useful clues on her own. After all, the person who orchestrated all of this must have been here before.

After going outside, she turned back and went back inside. After a careful examination, she found a footprint on the stairs that was similar in size to her own.

"Strange, how come there are footprints here?" Bai Mengfei wondered. "No one should be here in theory. So, these footprints must have been left by that person, right?"

With that thought in mind, she quickly climbed the stairs.

Once upstairs, Bai Mengfei observed her surroundings even more carefully. At the same time, recalling the details of the footprint she had just seen, she guessed that the person who had been there was likely a girl.

After carefully examining the upstairs area, she became even more certain that the person who had been there before must have been a woman.

Having confirmed this, she took a deep breath and continued searching for crucial clues in the cluttered space.

After searching for a while, she found a tissue among a pile of clutter, with a clear lip print on it. Her intuition told her that this tissue was anything but ordinary, so she carefully unfolded it.

Then, she discovered a message written inside the tissue: "Congratulations on finding the dungeon! Now you can activate the level-skipping mode and have a chance to meet me up close! Please cut that basketball!"

Bai Mengfei was determined to catch the person behind the scenes, and she didn't hesitate even though she knew there might be a bomb hidden in the basketball.

So she picked up a knife from among the clutter and stealthily cut the basketball open. Inside, an address and a key were visible.

After checking the address, she immediately ran outside and hailed a ride-hailing car.

Because of the long journey, it was already getting dark when she arrived at her destination.

She used the key to open the door, which swung open with a click, and she went inside. As soon as she entered, she saw an A4-sized piece of paper on the wall that read: "Don't worry, I won't repeat the same pattern twice!"

"I have nothing to worry about." Bai Mengfei sensed the other person was inside and said loudly as she walked in, "Perhaps you're the one who should be worried!"

"What do I have to be afraid of?" A clear, ethereal voice came from the living room. It was obviously processed, sounding both somewhat like a male voice and as if a female voice was deliberately pretending.

Bai Mengfei walked to the sofa and said, "Didn't you say I had a chance to see you? Then come out and let me see who you really are!"

"You are the first, and possibly the only, person among the three to crack my game so quickly. The more levels the others go through, the more trapped they become, obediently following the path I've laid out. But they will never get out unless they die."

"Isn't it because you created a dungeon that benefited me?" As she spoke, Bai Mengfei looked up at the second floor and saw a person in a suit and wearing a mask standing at the edge of the corridor.

Bai Mengfei sensed that this man was no ordinary person and thought that he was likely the one she was looking for, so she asked loudly, "Did you kill that writer?"

"Which writer?" he said as he slowly walked downstairs, his right hand unconsciously clenching into a fist. "I know plenty of writers, and I've killed plenty of people. How would I know which one you're talking about!"

Just as he came downstairs, Bai Mengfei caught a glimpse of his socks and discovered a secret—he wasn't a man, but a woman! Because the socks were decorated with lace.

Without hesitation, Bai Mengfei said, "Take off your mask. I already know your identity, and I know you're a woman!"

However, he raised his right hand, pressed it against his throat, took off the small microphone he used to change his voice, smiled slightly, and touched his Adam's apple.

Only then did Bai Mengfei realize that she had guessed wrong and that she had been deceived.

He slowly walked to the sofa and sat down, smiling at Bai Mengfei: "In this world, don't rely on guesswork for everything. After all, this isn't a simple world of black and white; there are gray areas and colorful complexities."

"Why are you giving me all this nonsense? I just want to know if I can see my friend!"

Upon hearing Bai Mengfei's words, he raised his left hand, pointed at her, and said with a smug smile, "Not bad, you have some guts. I admire you!"

"I don't need your appreciation," Bai Mengfei replied coldly. "I just want you to hand over my friends!"

"One of your friends was killed by me while he was struggling."

Upon hearing this, Bai Mengfei's heart sank, and she loudly questioned, "What did you say? You killed them?"

Suddenly, the man's lips curled into a sly smile, and he said, "Just kidding, why are you taking it so seriously? If I really killed him, would I be telling you? Don't be so naive!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Mengfei breathed a long sigh of relief, and her tense emotions relaxed.

The man noticed that Bai Mengfei cared a lot about Xiang Yuntian and Wang Tian, ​​so he patted the sofa next to him, gesturing for her to come and sit down.

"Want to save your friend? If so, come over and sit next to me."

Bai Mengfei, of course, wanted to save her friend; she dreamed of it. So, she reluctantly compromised, slowly walked over and sat down next to the person, a displeased expression on her face.
