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

Chapter 519 A New Case Emerges

Now that the truth has finally come to light, Bai Mengfei nodded gently, let out a long sigh of relief, and said, "Alright, it seems I misunderstood you."

"It's nothing," Xiang Yuntian said, then asked with concern, "Where are you right now?"

"I'm at a friend's house. We might go on a picnic together tomorrow. If you're interested, you can come too." Bai Mengfei invited him because she really didn't want to be a third wheel between Xia Yun and Zhang Jie.

Xiang Yuntian readily agreed.

The next morning, Xiang Yuntian drove to the agreed location and waited quietly for Bai Mengfei and her group.

Upon seeing Xiang Yuntian, Zhang Jie stopped the car, turned to look at Bai Mengfei sitting in the back seat, and said, "It's Forensic Doctor Xiang."

"I know, I asked him to come with me." After saying that, Bai Mengfei got out of the car and went straight to Xiang Yuntian's car, getting in without hesitation.

At that moment, a hint of dejection flashed across Zhang Jie's face, and a trace of resentment was faintly revealed in his eyes. But when he thought of Xiang Yuntian's family background, reputation and ability in the industry, which were far beyond his own, he secretly suppressed his emotions.

After the four drove to the airport, Zhang Jie said, "I didn't expect Forensic Doctor Xiang to be here too."

"It was forensic doctor Zhang who invited me here," Xiang Yuntian explained.

Zhang felt a pang of unease, forced a smile, and said, "I was also invited by Forensic Doctor Zhang."

Just then, Wang Tian arrived in Zhao Fei's car.

"Hey, why are Captain Zhao and Officer Wang here too?" Zhang asked, looking surprised.

Bai Mengfei said calmly, "I invited them. We chartered the entire tour group this time, and the tour fee will be split equally among everyone."

In this way, Zhang Jie would have no reason to compete with Xiang Yuntian for attention.

Zhao Fei walked over with a smile and said, "Everyone's here! Let's go get the tickets!"

"Wait a minute, where are we going?" Wang Tian was still unsure of the destination of this trip.

"Going abroad? Didn't I tell you to bring your passport?" Zhao Fei asked back.

Wang Tian nodded gently and said, "I know we're going abroad, but which country should we go to?"

"Thailand."

So, the group boarded a flight to Thailand.

On the plane, Zhao Fei praised Zhang Jie again in front of Xiang Yuntian, saying that he was smart and capable, and also mentioned that he had reported to his superiors that the holiday could be extended to seven days at most, so that everyone could enjoy their time.

However, after getting off the plane, both Zhang Jie and Xiang Yuntian seemed downcast and sullen.

The group took a local taxi to the house that Bai Mengfei had rented the night before.

Upon entering the house, Zhang Jie couldn't help but question, "This house looks so old, it feels like it's been around for a very long time."

Not wanting to embarrass Bai Mengfei, Xia Yun quickly said, "Actually, it's not bad. At least it's a villa, and each of us can have a room. Besides, it was rented by Forensic Doctor Zhang himself, so don't complain."

Xiang Yuntian quickly walked over and said to Bai Mengfei, "I'll pay for it."

"No need," Bai Mengfei coldly refused.

Not wanting everyone to be upset over such a small matter, Zhao Fei quickly smoothed things over, saying, "It's on me! I'll cover the expenses this time! Haha!"

After everyone chose a room, they began discussing where to have a big dinner that evening. After some discussion and planning, they finally decided to have a seafood feast.

So they went to a local restaurant together.

During their meal, many locals came over to take photos with them, showing great enthusiasm.

"The people here are so welcoming!" Zhao Fei said with a smile.

Just then, a beautiful woman seemed to take a liking to Zhao Fei and smiled at him.

Zhao Fei seemed to be somewhat interested in the beautiful woman, but he didn't go up to her to chat or ask for her contact information.

After the meal, Zhao Fei said to everyone, "You guys go ahead and have some fun. I have something to do."

Zhang Jie immediately joked, "Captain Zhao must have taken a liking to that beautiful woman from earlier!"

"Go away! Don't talk nonsense! You guys go back, I'll take a taxi home by myself in a bit."

They had no choice but to leave first.

After leaving the restaurant, everyone was unsure where to go next, since there wasn't anything particularly novel or fun to do there; it felt similar to being back in China.

The five of them went to sing karaoke for a while, but they all felt a bit bored, so they returned to their lodgings together.

The next morning, there was a knock on the door.

Zhang opened the door, and as soon as it opened, he saw a policeman standing outside.

The police officer asked Zhang Jie in English, "Does Zhao Fei live here?"

Chapter, who also speaks English, replied, "That's right, he's the captain of our criminal investigation team. What happened?"

“We now suspect him of murder. This case involves a foreign government official, so we hope you can send a representative to come back to the police station with me.”

Hearing the noise, Xia Yun and the others also came downstairs.

Seeing that Zhang Jie seemed to be having some difficulty making a decision, Xiang Yuntian stepped forward and said, "I'll go back with you."

Bai Mengfei was worried that Xiang Yuntian was inexperienced and unaware of the complexities involved, so she came over and said, "I'll go with you."

Afterwards, Bai Mengfei and Xiang Yuntian followed the police officer to the police station to learn about the specific details of the case.

After seeing the two of them, Zhao Fei recounted what had happened the previous night: "Last night, after you left, I went to ask that girl for her contact information. Unexpectedly, she was very proactive and invited me to her house, so I went. She insisted on playing some kind of blindfolded game, so I..."

Before he could finish speaking, Xiang Yuntian couldn't help but comment, "Lust is a double-edged sword!"

“Yes, I never thought that after being a policeman for so many years, I would be tricked like this and not even realize I’ve fallen for a honey trap.” Zhao Fei lowered his head in shame. “Not long after, the police arrived and said they received a report of a murder. Then they found a female corpse.”

"Is it that girl?" Bai Mengfei asked.

Zhao Fei slowly shook his head and said, "No, it's another woman's body. The police are still investigating the case, and I can't clear my name either."

Xiang Yuntian then made a request to the police: "We want to see the body because we can prove our captain's innocence by determining the time of death. We are also forensic doctors."

The police eventually gave them the courtesy of allowing them to view the body.

Xiang Yuntian and Bai Mengfei initially thought the body had been dead for a long time and that someone had framed Zhao Fei. However, they were surprised to find that the time of death matched the local forensic examination results—the woman had died an hour after Zhao Fei said goodbye to them.

Therefore, they cannot prove Zhao Fei's innocence based on the time of death.

The female victim was strangled to death, and prior to that, she had been sexually abused.

However, because the perpetrator had taken safety precautions, the police were unable to determine the perpetrator's identity based on this information.
