Chapter 161 Suicide?

"What's the question? Ask it."

Old Ghost's voice was deep and hoarse, like sandpaper being rubbed.

Xiang Yuntian pondered nervously for a moment before posing his first question: "First, were you the one who committed the previous series of murders?"

"I was only released two weeks ago, how could I possibly commit a series of murders?" Old Ghost retorted.

Thinking about it carefully, that's indeed the case.

Xiang Yuntian then asked, "Then why did you insist on killing her?"

As he spoke, he turned to look at Bai Mengfei.

Old Ghost replied, "I won't get a single penny unless I kill everyone who knows the truth."

Judging from this, he won't even let Xiang Yuntian go.

However, upon learning this, Xiang Yuntian felt not only less fear, but also a strange sense of peace. In this way, even if he died, he could die with Bai Mengfei.

After thinking for a while, Xiang Yuntian asked a crucial question: "Can you tell me who exactly ordered you to kill Fanghua?"

"Actually, the person I originally wanted to kill wasn't that girl, but the one next to you."

After saying that, the old ghost slowly turned his head and his gaze fell on Bai Mengfei, who had a calm expression.

At this point, Xiang Yuntian finally understood that Bai Mengfei was the real target.

So he moved closer to Bai Mengfei, trying to shield her with his body, and said to the old ghost, "My parents are very rich. How much did the person who sent you to kill her pay you? I'll give you double. Let her go."

"No...that's impossible. As an assassin, I was born to kill, not to save or release. I can kill her first, and then you can give me double the price to help you get revenge."

Old Gui's plan is indeed shrewd, but Xiang Yuntian would never let him have his way.

Sensing that the negotiations had reached a stalemate, Xiang Yuntian hurriedly said to Bai Mengfei, "Go and break the window to notify them. I'll hold him off."

But Bai Mengfei knew Xiang Yunwen's refined and courteous manner all too well.

Despite the danger, he still stepped forward, which moved Bai Mengfei deeply, but she was also extremely worried about his safety.

So Bai Mengfei not only refused, but stepped forward to protect him behind her and pushed him away, saying, "This is my own business, let me face it myself. Although I may die again without knowing why, at least this time I know who really wants to kill me."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Old Ghost immediately chimed in, "That's right, it's me."

After saying that, he charged towards Bai Mengfei with his knife.

As the knife, just like in her dream, was about to pierce her face, Bai Mengfei did not dodge.

At this critical moment, a gunshot rang out.

Old Gui was shot in the shoulder; the one who fired the shot was the same policeman who had made a bet with Bai Mengfei at the beach last time.

He did not keep his promise to resign, and this action can be considered as an attempt to atone for his sins.

Although he arrived just in time, his marksmanship was unfortunately lacking.

In the end, Lao Gui managed to escape.

The policeman wanted to give chase, but Xiang Yuntian knew he couldn't catch up, and that catching up might put the policeman in danger, so he said, "Forget it, don't chase him."

The police then stopped.

Although Bai Mengfei was unharmed, she was still quite frightened by the thugs. At this moment, she stood frozen in place, panting heavily.

After pondering silently for a long time, she frowned and an idea popped into her head: "I think the person who wants to kill me this time is very likely the serial killer."

"Why do you think that?" Xiang Yuntian asked in surprise.

"My intuition."

Bai Mengfei said definitively, "Last time he tried to kill you at the hospital but failed, which was like a real threat, warning us not to investigate any further. Now he's using the same trick again, but he's not taking action himself, perhaps because he feels we pose too great a threat to him."

After hearing what Bai Mengfei said, Xiang Yuntian felt that it made a lot of sense.

As time went on, their abilities indeed grew stronger and stronger.

Take Xiang Yuntian for example. He used to have very little muscle, but in order to protect Bai Mengfei, he has now developed six-pack abs.

However, that's not the key point. The key point is that Bai Mengfei has also become increasingly powerful, especially in her thinking, which has become more mature. She can solve many seemingly difficult cases in a short time, and her efficiency is much higher than before.

Because of the gunshot, Zhao Fei and the others, who were originally drowsy, rushed to the scene.

Seeing that Bai Mengfei and Xiang Yuntian were both safe and sound, the group felt less guilty.

Based on the bloodstains at the scene, they quickly searched for evidence and tracked down Lao Gui's whereabouts.

After a day and a night of searching, they finally found Lao Gui and cornered him on the rooftop of a building.

However, Lao Gui refused to yield and jumped to his death.

"Suicide out of fear of punishment!" Zhao Fei recorded this in the prisoner's file.

But Bai Mengfei and Xiang Yuntian both felt that something was amiss and that it was not as simple as it seemed.

Given Lao Gui's personality, how could he possibly commit suicide out of fear of punishment?

It's impossible!

So when the two were together in the lab, Xiang Yuntian shared his opinion and asked Bai Mengfei, "I don't think he could possibly be acting out of fear of punishment. There might be some unspeakable secret behind his suicide. What do you think?"

“Hmm, but we can’t figure out why either.” Bai Mengfei said while operating the equipment to examine the physical evidence in a case. “Let’s not think about it for now. We believe things will work out in the end. Let me tell you about the case I have. A man took his girlfriend to a hotel. He suspects that his girlfriend was raped by a hotel employee. We can’t find the surveillance footage at the scene, so we need to examine it.”

"So what were your test results?" Xiang Yuntian walked over unhurriedly: "Actually, I think the woman should have cooperated with the test from the beginning, and she could have gone to the hospital for a check-up. As long as she gets the relevant documentation, that's fine."

"It sounds simple, but obtaining documentary evidence is quite troublesome and takes a long time. It also requires professional authentication, which is too cumbersome. So they directly commissioned us to do the professional authentication."

"So what results did you get from the test?" Xiang Yuntian pressed.

"Everything is normal, and sexual relations did occur."

Bai Mengfei pursed her lips, a slight smile playing on her lips. After a moment's thought, she said, "The waiter's semen was detected in the female victim's body alone. The semen stains extracted from the bed sheets and other items at the scene also belonged to that waiter."
