Chapter 296 Pressure

Upon hearing Xiang Yuntian's words, Bai Mengfei immediately raised her right hand, signaling him to be quiet, and then lowered her voice to say, "Without sufficient evidence, all inferences are merely speculations."

"But it's already so obvious, isn't it? Just look at his expression just now, he was clearly trying to cover it up and deceive us!" Xiang Yuntian said excitedly.

Bai Mengfei, however, appeared remarkably calm and composed. Even when she was deep in thought, her expression remained serene and unwavering.

After careful consideration, Bai Mengfei raised her head and looked at Xiang Yuntian, saying, "How could I not understand? But you also need to be clear about his identity! He is our colleague, and regardless of whether he did it or not, it's not good for us to suspect him without any reason."

“Alright, I respect your opinion,” Xiang Yuntian conceded.

Bai Mengfei also conceded, saying, "Of course, I respect your opinion, and I will pay close attention to what you say."

"Well, that's fine."

The two then left the police station and returned to Zhao Fei's residence.

Just as Bai Mengfei was about to fall asleep, Zhao Fei saw her missed call and called back: "Hey, Zhang Ting, you called me earlier, is there something you need?"

Bai Mengfei pondered for a while, but ultimately did not mention Old Chen's matter. She simply said, "It's nothing. I just pressed the wrong button by accident."

"Oh, be more careful next time. This kind of thing isn't a big deal, but it's not a small one either," Zhao Fei advised.

Bai Mengfei hummed in agreement and then hung up the phone.

Xiang Yuntian, who was sleeping on the floor, knew it was Zhao Fei calling, so he asked, "Why didn't you tell Captain Zhao about this?"

"I don't think it's necessary," Bai Mengfei said in a deep voice.

Xiang Yuntian respected Bai Mengfei's decision and did not ask any further questions.

That night, Bai Mengfei had a series of strange dreams. In her dreams, a magnificent golden building appeared, which, from the outside, would be mistaken for a pyramid by an uninformed person.

In her dream, she entered this enormous golden building, only to find many corpses inside.

As she walked, she examined the bodies, a sense of dread washing over her.

When she saw that one of the faces was actually Xiang Yuntian's, she was so frightened that she sat up abruptly, almost jumping out of bed.

She was panicked, and her clothes were already soaked with sweat.

Hearing the scream of "Ah!", Xiang Yuntian woke up from his sleep and immediately turned to look at Bai Mengfei.

"Are you alright?" Xiang Yuntian asked softly.

Bai Mengfei gasped, her breath trembling with lingering fear.

"I'm fine." Although she said that, Xiang Yuntian still got up from his sleep and went to her side to check on her.

"Look, you're sweating so much," Xiang Yuntian said with concern.

Bai Mengfei raised her right hand, indicating that he didn't need to worry about her so much, and said, "I told you, I'm really fine."

"That's good." Xiang Yuntian looked at her with a serious expression. "Perhaps it's because of what happened last night that you had a nightmare. But dreams and reality are often the opposite, aren't they?"

When she woke up, Bai Mengfei felt very warm and comforted to have such a handsome man by her side to comfort her.

She gently rested her shoulder on Xiang Yuntian's shoulder, remaining silent, her gaze fixed on the scenery outside the window. The lights outside were brilliant, creating a very romantic scene.

In this reassuring embrace, she gradually drifted off to sleep.

When I woke up again, it was already morning. Unfortunately, this morning was not pleasant; the sunlight was dim, and thick fog filled the air.

The pervasive fog blurred the entire world.

Nevertheless, they got up early as usual and went to the police station.

As soon as she entered the police station, Bai Mengfei yawned softly, because she hadn't slept well the night before.

Just then, Zhao Fei walked over and said to her, "Zhang Ting, I have a case here that I need your help with."

"Huh? Another case?" Bai Mengfei asked in surprise.

Zhao Fei sighed, slowly turned around, and said in a low voice, "Because recently, a lot of people in Europe have lost money in that competition, you know? So, the whole situation has been affected. In addition to the possibility of many suicides..." Zhao Fei stopped there, and Bai Mengfei understood why he stopped.

After the two arrived at Zhao Fei's office, Bai Mengfei looked at the folder Zhao Fei took out and said, "But aren't there other colleagues in the police station? Besides, Captain Zhao, look, Zheng Yueru's case hasn't been finished yet."

Upon hearing Bai Mengfei's words, Zhao Fei stopped what he was doing, a look of disappointment on his face.

Finally, he silently put down the folder without showing it to Bai Mengfei, and instead instructed her, "Alright then, in that case, you should handle Zheng Yueru's case first."

"Okay, I'll try my best!" Bai Mengfei said.

Zhao Fei said, "Don't just say 'try your best.' Here's what I'll do: I'll give you a week. You can handle the case, right?"

"A week?" Bai Mengfei felt that the time was too short, and frowned slightly, looking troubled. "Alright, a week it is. I will do my best to get it done."

Hearing Bai Mengfei say this, Zhao Fei took a deep breath, slowly exhaled, and nodded in satisfaction. "Okay, just one week. Hurry up and finish the case. I have many more cases waiting for you to handle."

Bai Mengfei suddenly felt some pressure, but she didn't say anything and just silently turned around to leave.

Just as Bai Mengfei turned around, Zhao Fei suddenly said, "Wait a minute."

"Is there anything else?" Bai Mengfei turned around and looked at him.

Zhao Fei remained silent for a moment before telling Bai Mengfei the truth: "You want to know why, right? It's simple: with great power comes great responsibility. Go and get Zheng Yueru's case sorted out as soon as possible."

"Okay, no problem!" Bai Mengfei agreed and left. As soon as she stepped into the corridor, she began to reflect: Was it really because she was so capable that she bore such a heavy responsibility?

However, she didn't think about it for long. The thought flashed through her mind, and she breathed a sigh of relief and continued walking towards the police station's morgue.

Because she knew that Xiang Yuntian should be there at that moment.

In the entire police station, Xiang Yuntian was probably the only one who could help her share these tasks.
