Chapter 528 Spend the night
Chapter 528 Spend the night
Judging from Xia Yun's anxious and worried tone, it seemed that Zhang Jie's injuries were quite serious, so Xiang Yuntian immediately stepped forward to check on Zhang Jie.
After all, as a forensic doctor, he is quite proficient in some medical skills.
After a closer look, Xiang Yuntian frowned slightly, a hint of surprise in his eyes. There was a large red mark on the back of Zhang Jie's neck, clearly caused by being struck with a hard object like a wooden stick or iron bar.
Xiang Yuntian then looked up and asked intently, "Do you have any medicinal wine or anything like that at home?"
"Medicated wine?" Xia Yun was slightly taken aback, a look of confusion on her face for a moment, before she realized what she meant and said, "Yes! Do you need medicated wine? I'll go home and get it right away!"
"Then please go quickly!" Xiang Yuntian said anxiously.
Hearing Xiang Yuntian say this, Xia Yun didn't dare to delay. She immediately turned around and ran home to get the medicinal wine, and then carefully massaged Zhang Jie's neck.
Now, in Zhao Fei's eyes, the chapter is like a precious treasure, so he attaches great importance to this matter.
His brows furrowed, his eyes revealing worry. As he looked at the injured chapter, he crossed his arms and lowered his head slightly, pondering as he asked, "Who could have injured you like this? Have you had any enemies with anyone before?"
"No! Aside from work-related matters, I never make enemies. Even at work, I don't get into conflicts with anyone!" Zhang Jie said innocently.
Upon hearing Zhang Jie's words, Xiang Yuntian narrowed his eyes slightly, his expression turning serious as he said, "But seeing how badly you're injured, that person must have used considerable force! It felt like they were trying to kill you!"
"Was it that scary?" Zhang Jie's eyes widened, his face full of surprise. "I just felt everything go black, and then I passed out!"
"Luckily you survived." Bai Mengfei sighed softly, then walked over and gracefully sat on the armrest of the sofa. After sitting down, she frowned slightly, lost in thought, and after a moment slowly said, "So, could this matter be related to our previous visit to that so-called terrifying building?"
"Maybe!" Zhang Jie tilted his head slightly, looking completely bewildered, and replied, "I'm not really sure!"
Just as Zhang Jie was deep in thought, Bai Mengfei sat down next to him, her eyes serious and focused, and said, "Think again! What exactly happened back then!" After saying that, she looked up and turned to Xia Yun, who was standing to the side, and added, "You should also try to recall it!"
"Oh!" Xia Yun responded, and naturally lowered her head to think.
After a moment of contemplation, she gently shook her head, a helpless expression on her face, and said, "I really didn't see anything unusual before!"
"Alright! Then you should all get some rest!" Bai Mengfei stood up, a hint of fatigue in her eyes, and decided to go back with Xiang Yuntian.
Just then, Zhang Jie suddenly looked up, a hint of expectation in his eyes, and asked, "So you're not resting here tonight?"
In an instant, Xiang Yuntian's expression changed slightly, and a hint of displeasure flashed across his previously calm face.
He glanced at the chapter in secret, a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes, before turning to look at Bai Mengfei standing to the side.
Bai Mengfei lowered her head slightly, a faint blush rising on her face, and said, "No! I'm going back with Forensic Doctor Xiang tonight!"
Seeing Bai Mengfei's resolute attitude, Zhang Que could only nod helplessly, a hint of disappointment on his face, and said, "Alright then! Be careful on your journey!"
Once in the car, Xiang Yuntian kept frowning, a hint of worry in his eyes, looking somewhat unhappy. Bai Mengfei keenly noticed his unusual expression, a slight smile playing on her lips as she asked, "What's wrong? Are you jealous?"
Zhao Fei had already driven away, leaving only the two of them in the car.
Xiang Yuntian was slightly taken aback, then shook his head, a hint of embarrassment on his face, and said, "I'm not jealous!"
"Then why do you look so gloomy?" Bai Mengfei pressed.
Xiang Yuntian let out a soft sigh, a hint of fatigue on his face, before saying, "No, I just had something on my mind! I've been thinking about that building!"
"Is there something you can't tell me?" Bai Mengfei blinked mischievously and asked playfully.
Xiang Yuntian panicked slightly, a hint of unease flashing in his eyes, and he couldn't help but say, "No! Don't overthink it!"
"Am I really overthinking things?" Bai Mengfei chuckled softly. "Alright, then I guess I am overthinking it! Don't act like a child and throw a tantrum at me!"
"No, you're overthinking it!" Xiang Yuntian muttered to himself, a hint of helplessness on his face.
Bai Mengfei pondered for a moment before saying, "Oh, right, there's something else I need to tell you!"
"What is it?" Xiang Yuntian turned his head slightly, a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
“I might not be staying at your place anymore!” Bai Mengfei said calmly.
Upon hearing Bai Mengfei's words, Xiang Yuntian's eyes instantly became somewhat flustered, and his face showed an anxious expression as he urgently asked, "Why?"
"Because I don't want to live here anymore, that's why I don't want to!" Bai Mengfei smiled faintly, a casual look on her face. "There's no particular reason!"
Xiang Yuntian opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't dare to ask any more questions. He just nodded secretly, a hint of disappointment on his face, and said, "Alright then!"
“I’ve decided to go back to the house that Captain Zhao gave us! After all, judging from the current situation, it seems that the murderer is serious! We’ve encountered so many strange things one after another, it can’t be a coincidence!” As she finished speaking, Bai Mengfei’s expression became serious, and a hint of determination appeared in her eyes.
Xiang Yuntian looked at her, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes, and couldn't help but say, "Then can I come with you? I'll still be sleeping on the floor anyway!"
"Yes, that's fine!" Bai Mengfei nodded gently.
Upon hearing Bai Mengfei's words, Xiang Yuntian immediately turned the steering wheel and led Bai Mengfei to the house arranged by Zhao Fei.
After arriving here, Bai Mengfei prepared to take a bath, so she tilted her head slightly and asked, "Are you planning to take a bath now or wait a while?"
Xiang Yuntian saw through her thoughts, smiled slightly, and said, "If you want to take a shower, go ahead and do it!"
"Okay!" Bai Mengfei replied and went into the bathroom.
Halfway through her shower, Bai Mengfei suddenly heard a scream from outside. Startled, a worried look crossed her face, and she hurriedly wrapped a towel around herself and ran out. To her surprise, she discovered that Xiang Yuntian had accidentally scalded himself with the kettle.
"Are you alright?" Bai Mengfei asked with concern.
Xiang Yuntian's gaze lingered on her for more than ten seconds, a hint of panic flashing in his eyes, before he came to his senses, blushed slightly, looked away, gave an awkward smile, and said, "I'm fine!"
"That's good!" Bai Mengfei smiled gently, a look of relief on her face. "Then I'll continue taking a bath!"
"Okay! Go!" Xiang Yuntian said, not daring to raise his eyes again, his face still flushed.
Around midnight, Bai Mengfei was half asleep when she suddenly heard a knocking sound at the door.
She sat up abruptly, a hint of alertness in her eyes, and looked towards the door. Just then, Xiang Yuntian also heard the knocking and hurriedly got up from the floor.
"You lie down! I'll go see who it is!" Xiang Yuntian said softly, a hint of determination in his eyes.
Bai Mengfei nodded secretly.
Xiang Yuntian arrived at the door, carefully opened it, and looked outside. He found it empty; there wasn't a soul in the corridor. He frowned slightly, finding it strange, and instead of returning inside, went out to investigate.
Just then, the door slammed shut with a loud bang from the wind. Startled by the sudden noise, Xiang Yuntian quickly turned around to look.
Bai Mengfei also noticed that the door was closed. She hurriedly ran over, pulled the door open forcefully, and asked with a suspicious look on her face, "Did you close the door just now?"
"No, it must have been blown shut by the wind!" Xiang Yuntian muttered to himself, a hint of nervousness in his eyes.
Bai Mengfei nodded slightly, not taking it too seriously, and said, "Be careful!"
"I will!" Xiang Yuntian walked into the house, but his eyes were still fixed on the outside, constantly watching the empty corridor, his eyes revealing a hint of vigilance.
