"What's so strange about that?" Bai Mengfei feigned composure as she organized the documents, her tone nonchalant. "After all, I'm a woman about to get married. I can't keep handling those corpses and then go home and touch my lover, can I?"

Upon hearing these words, Zhang Shun swallowed hard, his Adam's apple bobbing slightly.

Bai Mengfei knew that every woman who had been victimized had been assaulted, so she subtly hinted at it to Zhang Shun without making it seem deliberate.

After tidying up the documents, Bai Mengfei slowly stood up, pretending to be going to eat, and said softly, "Excuse me, could you please move aside?"

At this moment, Zhang Shun's gaze was fixed on her blue miniskirt, a wicked smile curling at the corner of his mouth. His eyes seemed to regard Bai Mengfei as a fish on a chopping board, filled with greed and desire.

Bai Mengfei stepped aside to walk past him and went to the cafeteria for lunch with her other female colleagues.

Not long after, Zhang Shun also came along, his gaze fixed on Bai Mengfei the whole way.

Zhang Shun's colleagues noticed his unusual behavior and started teasing and making fun of him.

Zhang Shun, without any hesitation, stood up and walked to Bai Mengfei's side, deliberately asking, "You have a boyfriend, right?"

"Didn't I tell you? I'm getting married soon, how could I not have a boyfriend?" Bai Mengfei deliberately showed an impatient expression, making Zhang Shun extremely embarrassed and losing face in front of everyone.

Zhang Shun felt ashamed and had no choice but to return to his seat dejectedly, where he was once again ridiculed by his colleagues.

As Bai Mengfei was preparing to go home that night, Zhang Shun drove up to her and asked, "Want a ride?"

Bai Mengfei felt this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to record their conversation, so she readily agreed.

After getting into the car and driving for a while, Bai Mengfei casually asked, "What are your thoughts on that serial murder case of teenage girls?"

"Why do you people always bring up that case that disgusts me?" Zhang Shun asked rhetorically, a hint of displeasure in his voice.

Bai Mengfei smiled faintly and explained, "Because I've read your previous news reports, I noticed that you seem to pay special attention to this area, so we became interested in you."

"I see. Then I'll publish more financial news in the future and see if anyone will mistake me for a Forbes billionaire," Zhang Shun said half-jokingly.

Bai Mengfei did not laugh, for she knew that Zhang Shun was extremely cunning and difficult to deal with.

In order to lure Zhang Shun into revealing his true colors, Bai Mengfei decisively said, "Take me to the outskirts of the city; I want to have some fun."

"What?" Zhang Shun took the bait as expected, and his emotions instantly became agitated.

Bai Mengfei pondered for a moment, then said, "I said, before we get married, I want to do some things that I can't do with other people after we get married."

"So, you want to do it with me?" Zhang Shun's face revealed a malicious smile.

“That’s right,” Bai Mengfei replied confidently.

Zhang Shun believed him and immediately drove to the suburbs. After parking the car, he took out a lot of condoms from the trunk. Seeing this, Bai Mengfei finally understood why he never left DNA on the female corpses when he committed the crimes.

"Is it right here?" Zhang Shun asked eagerly.

“Yes!” Bai Mengfei replied with a forced smile.

Zhang Shun pounced on her eagerly, saying, "I never imagined that you, who always acted so pure and aloof, were actually this kind of person at heart!"

At that moment, Xiang Yuntian and Zhang Jie were listening to their conversation. The two were so angry that they clenched their fists and almost couldn't help but slam their fists on the table.

Seeing this, Zhao Fei quickly reminded them, "Calm down!"

Xiang Yuntian let out a heavy sigh of relief, angrily took off his headphones, and said, "Listen if you want, I'm not listening anymore!"

Chapter also took off his headphones.

Wang Tian and Zhao Fei continued to eavesdrop, worried that Bai Mengfei might encounter misfortune, and dared not relax their vigilance in the slightest.

At this moment, Bai Mengfei made another request to Zhang Shun: "I like to do something exciting. Doing things like this is too boring, and I'm not happy about it."

Zhang Shun believed him without a doubt, turned around and took a rope from the car, intending to tie Bai Mengfei up. Upon seeing this, Bai Mengfei had a sudden thought: similar ligature marks had been found on the dismembered corpses.

Having made the discovery, Bai Mengfei decisively pretended to have a stomachache, biting her lower lip and saying weakly, "I'm not feeling well right now, you should take me home, darling!"

The word "darling" was a pre-arranged code, meaning that Zhao Fei and the others should come immediately.

Zhang Shun had no suspicions and immediately took her home.

As soon as the car arrived downstairs, Zhao Fei and his men rushed out like divine soldiers, quickly subdued Zhang Shun, and pinned him down in the car.

Zhao Fei also found the rope in Zhang Shun's car.

"Now that you've been caught red-handed, what else do you have to say?" Zhao Fei questioned.

"What do you mean by 'caught red-handed'? What are you talking about?" Zhang Shun looked completely bewildered. "Let me go! Let me go now! I bought this rope a couple of days ago to tie up my luggage. What kind of nonsense is this, arresting me for no reason?"

"What about the invoice? Do you have one?" Zhao Fei pressed.

Zhang Shun breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Of course I have an invoice, it's an electronic invoice, it's on my phone." As he spoke, he actually pulled out the electronic invoice to show everyone.

Everyone was speechless for a moment. Zhang Shun turned his head, glared fiercely at Bai Mengfei, and said, "I should have known you were here to frame me! Humph!"

After saying that, he angrily drove away.

The next morning, Zhang Shun recounted the events of the previous night involving Zhao Fei and others on his Weibo and other social media platforms.

It turns out that someone was secretly taking photos last night.

After seeing the news, Zhao Fei and his friends realized that they had been tricked by Zhang Shun.

Therefore, Zhao Fei immediately gathered everyone together and said to Bai Mengfei in particular, "You can't go back now. Because if you go back, even if you aren't killed by the murderer, you'll be drowned in public criticism."

"I know." Bai Mengfei lowered her head, her expression calm, and slowly traced circles on the desk with her index finger.

Sitting to the side, Xiang Yuntian said with a worried look, "My father has seen the news and has now changed his mind. He no longer agrees to me marrying Zhang Ting."

"Why are you bringing this up at a time like this?" Zhao Fei asked, somewhat helplessly.

Xiang Yuntian rolled his eyes and retorted, "Get this straight, I'm no longer a forensic doctor, and I don't get paid. I'm just an honorary consultant. Why can't I say that?"

In truth, both work and relationships are of paramount importance to Bai Mengfei. Hearing the two arguing endlessly about their importance, she couldn't help but say, "Can you two please stop arguing?"

Hearing Bai Mengfei's words, Xiang Yuntian and Zhao Fei stopped their childish bickering, but they still glared at each other resentfully.

They stared at each other for a while before turning their faces away.
