Chapter 503 Possibility

Bai Mengfei hurriedly waved her hand and said, "I really don't drink."

Dong Wenrun didn't press her any further.

After a few drinks, Dong Wenrun gradually opened up and began to confide in Bai Mengfei about all the unhappiness he had felt over the years.

From his words, it's clear that he has been suppressing these emotions for a long time.

Based on this, Bai Mengfei deduced that he did indeed have a criminal motive.

why?

Being under immense psychological pressure for a long time and accumulating emotions for too long can lead to mental health problems, potentially driving someone down a path of crime and resulting in extreme acts like murder.

However, this is merely Bai Mengfei's speculation, and there is currently no conclusive evidence to support this idea.

Therefore, Bai Mengfei did not voice her guess.

After Dong Wenrun had drunk himself into a stupor and fallen into a deep sleep, Bai Mengfei carefully got up and began to search his room carefully. After searching for a while, she found a diary in a drawer of Dong Wenrun's cabinet.

Bai Mengfei opened the diary and read Dong Wenrun's records over the years, learning that he was filled with resentment towards his wife's betrayal years ago. However, this resentment seemed to remain only in the depths of his heart, and the object of his resentment was only his wife.

In this respect, Bai Mengfei felt that the possibility of him committing murder was actually not high. Because if he really wanted to vent his emotions by killing, it was unlikely that he would choose kind and innocent women as his targets.

Just as Bai Mengfei was feeling confused, Dong Wenrun, in his sleep, began to murmur his ex-wife's name, his tone full of pleading, begging her not to leave.

Bai Mengfei sighed softly, covered him with the blanket, and then quietly left the room.

Back in her dormitory, in the quiet of the night, Bai Mengfei heard what sounded like noise outside.

She immediately came out of the room to check, and saw Zhang Jie standing outside with a cigarette in his hand.

Bai Mengfei asked with some confusion, "Why are you here in the middle of the night instead of going back to your own room to sleep?"

Zhang quickly stubbed out his cigarette and said with a smile, "Of course I'm here to protect you. Think about it, it's not safe for a girl like you to live here all by herself."

Bai Mengfei took a deep breath, nodded gently, and said, "Thank you for your concern, but I'm really fine."

"Really?" Zhang asked.

Bai Mengfei retorted, "Look at me, I'm perfectly fine now, do I look like something's wrong? Don't worry about me, go back and rest."

Hearing Bai Mengfei say this, Zhang Jie said with a hint of regret, "Alright, then I'll head back first."

"Okay, you should go to sleep early," Bai Mengfei said softly.

Only then did Zhang slowly turn and leave.

The next evening, as soon as Xiang Yuntian was discharged from the hospital, he rushed to the police station and waited anxiously for Bai Mengfei.

At this moment, Bai Mengfei was preparing to go out for dinner with Dong Wenrun.

Because Dong Wenrun is still the prime suspect, Bai Mengfei decided to continue to approach him in order to gain a deeper understanding of the situation.

However, Xiang Yuntian happened to witness this scene.

When Xiang Yuntian saw Bai Mengfei get into Dong Wenrun's car, he instinctively wanted to walk over. But after taking just one step, he stopped and stood there blankly, seemingly lost in thought.

After a fierce internal struggle, he ultimately did not step forward, a hint of sadness showing on his face.

From inside the car, Bai Mengfei spotted Xiang Yuntian standing at the entrance of the police station through the car window.

She immediately said to Dong Wenrun, "Excuse me, could you please stop the car?"

Dong Wenrun stopped the car as instructed, and Bai Mengfei quickly opened the car door, ran out of the car, and came to Xiang Yuntian's side.

"What are you doing here?" Bai Mengfei asked.

"I've come to see you!" Xiang Yuntian's eyes were fixed on Dong Wenrun's car. "Besides, I haven't resigned yet."

"Don't overthink it. I'm with him to investigate the case," Bai Mengfei explained.

Xiang Yuntian said somewhat agitatedly, "He's just a policeman! My mind is a mess right now, I'm really dizzy. I don't know if it's because I was poisoned too much before, I'm almost going insane. Why did you lie to me? He's not a criminal investigator, what kind of case could you investigate with him?"

"I really don't know how to explain this to you." Bai Mengfei said helplessly, because she knew that once she explained, it might expose her plan.

After speaking, Bai Mengfei looked at Xiang Yuntian seriously, hoping he could understand her predicament.

Then, she turned around and walked back to Dong Wenrun's car.

Dong Wenrun asked curiously, "Is that your boyfriend?"

“That was true before, but it’s uncertain now and in the future. Dong-ge, let’s go.” Bai Mengfei said this deliberately, trying to test Dong Wenrun and draw out his weakness.

However, she knew in her heart that if they really fought, Dong Wenrun might not be her match.

Seeing Bai Mengfei's resolute attitude, Dong Wenrun started the car.

However, halfway through the drive, he couldn't help but advise Bai Mengfei: "It's normal for couples to have minor disagreements. The important thing is to understand and forgive each other. Judging from his expression, he cares about you quite a bit. Maybe he just expresses it the wrong way. If you can forgive him, give him a chance."

Dong Wenrun's words made Bai Mengfei feel a little doubtful: This really didn't sound like something that cruel plum blossom murderer would say.

She began to doubt whether she had chosen the wrong target.

After dinner, Bai Mengfei returned to the police station, only to find Xiang Yuntian still waiting for her at the door.

He paced back and forth in front of the police station like a child, occasionally kicking stones on the ground.

Upon seeing Bai Mengfei return, Xiang Yuntian immediately ran over and explained apologetically, "I'm sorry, I was too hasty. It wasn't intentional. Can you forgive me?"

"I don't blame you, it's just that there are some things I can't tell you."

"What is it?"

Seeing that Xiang Yuntian was so eager to know the truth, and that there was no one else around, Bai Mengfei explained to him softly, "It's like this, Dong Wenrun is my prime suspect, and the suspicion is very strong. Not only me, Uncle Shi and the others also suspect him."

"So you deliberately got close to him to investigate him?" Xiang Yuntian asked in surprise.

Bai Mengfei nodded gently and said, "That's right. He used to have a wife, but she ran off with someone else. Since then, his temper has become very volatile, and people in the police station have distanced themselves from him. This is how small conflicts gradually escalate into big problems. And for so many years, he has had no one to confide in."

Upon hearing this, Xiang Yuntian continued to speculate: "So his mind gradually became twisted, eventually leading him down the path of murder?"

Bai Mengfei shook her head and said, "No, after getting to know him over this period of time, I found that he is actually a patient and kind-hearted person. So I think that although he is the most suspicious and is also suspected by his colleagues, the murderer may not be him. It is very likely that someone else is involved, and that person may be hiding inside the police station."

Xiang Yuntian nodded slightly and then said, "I haven't resigned yet. I want to continue investigating cases with you. Would you be willing?"
