A forensic doctor is reborn, sir, please don't bully me!
Chapter 82 Dreamland
When Xiang Yuntian heard Bai Mengfei ask about the case again, he suddenly stopped walking beside her.
He slowly turned his head, gazing intently at Bai Mengfei, his eyes filled with tenderness.
"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?" Bai Mengfei felt a little embarrassed by Xiang Yuntian's gaze.
Xiang Yuntian smiled slightly, then shook his head gently and said, "It's nothing, I just suddenly think you're very cute."
"Really? What's cute about me?" In fact, Bai Mengfei considered herself to be serious and not at all cute.
Therefore, hearing Xiang Yuntian's evaluation made him somewhat displeased.
Xiang Yuntian's intention was not simply to praise Bai Mengfei, but he thought that saying this might make Bai Mengfei happy and divert her attention from the case. Unexpectedly, he was speechless when Bai Mengfei asked him this question, and he did not know how to describe Bai Mengfei's cuteness. He could only lower his head and think seriously.
"Okay, stop thinking about it, I'm hungry."
Seeing this, the understanding Bai Mengfei immediately changed the subject, giving Xiang Yuntian a way out.
Xiang Yuntian quickly and cheerfully replied, "Then let's go back?"
The two returned to Xiang Yuntian's home together, and Bai Mengfei immediately focused intently on the computer, browsing recent news related to the case. Because the case involved the murder of a television host, public attention had surged, reaching a new level of public interest.
Xiang Yuntian sat down next to Bai Mengfei, carefully breaking open the crab for her and skillfully peeling the shrimp before gently feeding it to her.
Strangely enough, Bai Mengfei has become quite accustomed to this way of interacting, and doesn't find it abrupt at all. Perhaps it's because her attention is currently focused on the many recent events.
Just as she was engrossed in reading, Xiang Yuntian suddenly reached out to close her laptop.
Bai Mengfei was immediately displeased. She quickly grabbed Xiang Yuntian's hand, glared at him angrily, and questioned him with a stern face, "What are you doing?"
When Bai Mengfei questioned him like this, Xiang Yuntian felt like a thief caught red-handed. He felt extremely guilty and wished he could pull his hand away immediately, as if his hand was solid evidence of his guilt, being tightly gripped by Bai Mengfei.
"N-nothing," he stammered, his eyes darting around, clearly feeling guilty. If Bai Mengfei were standing back-to-back with him, she could probably feel that his back was already soaked with sweat. "I just saw some dirty stuff on the computer..."
“You simply can’t lie,” Bai Mengfei said in an interrogative tone. “Every time you lie, your face turns slightly red.”
Seeing through Bai Mengfei's disguise at a glance, Xiang Yuntian secretly took a deep breath, feeling increasingly flustered, and his blush became more and more obvious.
Seeing this, Bai Mengfei couldn't help but giggle. "Alright, I know you want to shut down my computer so I can't investigate the case. Fine, I'll let you off this time since you have such a strong will to survive. But don't do it again next time."
"Hmm...hehe..." Xiang Yuntian laughed awkwardly, while still peeling shrimp for Bai Mengfei.
Despite the pile of shrimp shells in front of him, he hadn't eaten a single shrimp himself; he had been single-mindedly peeling shrimp for Bai Mengfei since earlier.
"You should eat something too," Bai Mengfei said naturally.
The two were of similar intelligence, and their communication was very smooth; everything seemed natural.
Sometimes, a single glance is enough for them to understand each other's meaning.
Seeing that Bai Mengfei was enjoying her meal, Xiang Yuntian only ate some vegetables himself.
After dinner, Bai Mengfei went to wash up as usual and prepared to rest.
However, while taking a bath, she began to hallucinate. In her dazed state, she saw a man holding a sharp blade behind her.
This scene, occurring while she was taking a shower, truly terrified her.
"Ah!" she screamed instinctively, her voice sharp and loud.
The scream instantly echoed into Xiang Yuntian's bedroom.
At that moment, Xiang Yuntian was conducting a comprehensive analysis of the images of the corpse, intending to write a report. Upon hearing the scream, he immediately reacted, stood up, and quickly walked towards the bathroom.
"Are you alright?" Xiang Yuntian rushed to the bathroom door and asked with concern.
Bai Mengfei calmed down a bit and reached out to wipe away the condensation on the glass.
There was no one behind her; it turned out she had just imagined it. But the doctor said she was perfectly healthy, so why did she have this illusion?
As she frowned in thought, she didn't forget to reply to Xiang Yuntian outside the door: "I'm fine."
"Oh, that's good. If anything happens, just call me, I'm always here."
Xiang Yuntian's magnetic voice came from outside the door, steady and deep, which made Bai Mengfei feel at ease.
"Okay, I understand." Bai Mengfei replied cheerfully to Xiang Yuntian.
That night, a heavy rain began to fall outside. The raindrops pounded against the window, and the noisy sound seemed to threaten to engulf the entire city.
Bai Mengfei lay alone in the bedroom, surrounded by a quiet that was almost serene. Anyone else would find such an environment comfortable, reassuring, and conducive to sleep.
But she felt quite the opposite. Because her nerves were always highly alert, she actually felt somewhat uneasy in this environment.
Although she herself was unaware, her hands were gripping the blanket tightly, and with extraordinary force.
She tried hard to fall asleep, but after lying down, she tossed and turned, unable to drift off. In order to maintain a regular sleep schedule, she forced herself to sleep while tossing and turning.
After many attempts, she finally managed to drift off to sleep.
However, once she entered the dream, she faced the deepest things in her subconscious, the various cases she had experienced in the past, and all sorts of past experiences, all intertwined and mixed together in the dream.
In her dream, she found herself running desperately, without stopping for a moment.
The scene seemed familiar; it was an experience she had before her rebirth, when she was being hunted down for investigating a corpse. However, in her dream, the scene was near Xiang Yuntian's house.
She felt as if she had returned to the basketball court she had visited during the day, and found herself outside the basketball court, with an iron fence in front of her.
To escape the killer's pursuit, she struggled to climb over the iron fence and tried to escape into the basketball court.
After struggling to climb over the wall, she had just landed when she looked up and saw Zhang Shun, holding a scalpel, standing right in front of her.
