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

Chapter 244 Hypocrisy

Bai Mengfei was worried about hurting the self-esteem of this innocent girl, but she also knew that Xiang Yuntian was not the kind of person who would reject others because of their background.

So she decided to tell the truth: "Like I told you before, he probably still can't let go of the deceased forensic doctor, Dr. Bai. I heard that for a year after Dr. Bai passed away, he was depressed and listless, and didn't even shave. You can imagine how deep his feelings are, right?"

Yingying lowered her gaze, looking at Bai Mengfei's arm. After thinking for a long time, she said softly, "I understand, I get it. But the forensic doctor Bai is no longer here. He really doesn't need to keep dwelling on the past."

"It's not a question of whether he needs it or not; perhaps he just can't unlock the lock in his own heart," Bai Mengfei speculated.

Yingying suddenly looked up excitedly at Bai Mengfei and said, "Zhang Ting, can you help me resolve his inner conflict? I really like him. From the moment my father brought you back in an oxcart and I saw him, I felt that I had fallen in love with him!"

This relationship came about so hastily!

Bai Mengfei turned her face away helplessly, her smile filled with resignation.

A deep sense of loss welled up in her heart.

The more persistent Yingying was, the more troubled she felt.

On one hand, there is the kindness shown to Yingying's family, and on the other hand, there is her love for Xiang Yuntian. How should Bai Mengfei choose?

Just as she was hesitating, the outside suddenly became brightly lit, and the noise of villagers banging gongs and drums could be heard.

"Huh, what's going on?" Bai Mengfei's expression instantly turned serious as she finished speaking. She worried that the police were conducting a thorough search: "Oh no! Could it be that the police have come looking for us?"

Yingying was also a loyal and affectionate girl. She immediately got out of bed, put on her slippers, and said to Bai Mengfei, "You stay under the covers and don't come out. I'll go check on the situation!"

"it is good!"

Watching Yingying gradually walk out, Bai Mengfei quietly shrank into the quilt.

And so she waited, one minute, two minutes... for a long time, but Yingying never came back to report.

She began to panic, filled with worry: What if something happened to Yingying?

After some internal struggle, she finally threw off the covers, got out of bed, and walked outside.

She quickened her pace as she walked.

When she hurriedly arrived at the courtyard outside the gate, she saw a stretcher made of bamboo poles on the ground, with a body covered with a white sheet on it.

There were two people crying nearby; they were none other than Yingying and her mother.

Seeing this, Bai Mengfei slowly walked over, wondering who the person under the white cloth was.

Jiang Shuai immediately stepped out from the crowd, quietly stopped her, and said to her with his face turned to the side, "Go in!"

"Why?" she asked in a low voice.

Jiang Shuai frowned and said, "When Xiang Yuntian came out just now, I let him in. Have you all forgotten your current situation? Let the village chief and the others handle this matter. Don't meddle, and hurry up and go inside."

"But you have to let me know who's lying inside and what happened, right?" Bai Mengfei was still stubborn; once she believed something was right, she had to find out.

Jiang Shuai understood her personality, and helplessly turned to look at the stretcher, saying, "The person inside is Uncle Hu. My aunt and I found him at the village entrance. When we passed by, Uncle Hu was already dead. The cause of death is currently unknown, but I suspect he may have been robbed and killed!"

"Guess?" Bai Mengfei gave a wry smile and chuckled softly.

How can we rely on guesswork to determine the nature of experimental corpses?

Moreover, judging from Uncle Hu's clothes and the oxcart he was riding, he was a poor man. If it really was the work of robbers, then the robbers must be blind.

How much money could you get by robbing Uncle Hu?

Bai Mengfei didn't believe it, thinking that there must be a hidden secret behind this matter.

So she resolutely pushed Jiang Shuai away and insisted on going over to check.

For her safety, and not wanting her to be discovered by the police, Jiang Shuai quietly stopped her, saying in a low voice, "Okay, stop making a fuss, please, calm down, okay?"

"Uncle Hu was a good man, he saved us!" Bai Mengfei said emotionally. "Do you even understand? He was likely killed because he went to find a doctor for Xiang Yuntian. Do you even know who Xiang Yuntian is?"

“He was a forensic officer who saved many people and resolved many injustices. He was a good person, so I knew Uncle Hu was a kind and wise man. Alas, it’s a pity that good people don’t live long,” Jiang Shuai replied regretfully.

Bai Mengfei exclaimed excitedly, "No! Commander Jiang, let me tell you, Xiang Yuntian isn't just a forensic officer; he's your brother, the brother you spent so much time with abroad. How would you feel if he died? Besides, Uncle Hu saved both my life and his. Do you think I could just stand by and watch him die without knowing why? Even if it's a complete stranger, I'll help them find the real culprit, let alone our benefactor!"

Upon hearing Bai Mengfei's words, Jiang Shuai felt a jolt in his heart and felt ashamed of his own inferiority.

He turned his head, but still didn't move aside. Instead, he said, "The police will be here soon. While there are many people and things are chaotic, what you should do now is leave. As for Uncle Hu's death, other forensic officers will come to find out the truth and clear his name."

"I……"

Bai Mengfei wanted to say something more, but then she heard a cold and dry voice behind her: "Zhang Ting, don't be stubborn. This time, let's listen to Commander Jiang and leave here first, okay?"

Upon hearing this gentle voice, Bai Mengfei involuntarily turned around and found that it was Xiang Yuntian standing behind her.

Bai Mengfei thought about it and ultimately trusted Xiang Yuntian's decision, so she nodded.

That night, while there were still many villagers around, the two of them secretly climbed over the fence and left.

But they didn't actually go very far; instead, they hid in the bamboo grove next to the house, observing from the shadows.

After the police and forensic doctor arrived, Xiang Yuntian squatted there, quietly observing the people and trying to understand the situation by reading their lips.

Few people know that he has this skill; in fact, he has mastered quite a few abilities.

When Bai Mengfei saw Qu Ying among the police officers getting out of the car, she immediately exclaimed in a low voice, "Look! It's that guy!"

“Luckily, Commander Jiang let us go first. Don’t speak yet, let me read your lips.” Xiang Yuntian stared intently at Qu Ying.

Qu Ying walked up to Jiang Shuai, seemingly intending to harm him.

Although he wore his usual smile when speaking to Jiang Shuai, Xiang Yuntian could tell from lip reading that Qu Ying, that hypocrite, was saying, "I know you. We met at the police station before. You're a friend of Forensic Doctor Xiang?"
