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

Chapter 183 Looking for help

Bai Mengfei walked quickly to the car, bent down slightly, and gently tapped the car window with her knuckles.

As Lü You rolled down the car window, Bai Mengfei asked with a smile, "Are you still waiting for me?"

"Yes, I'm really sorry about that."

As he spoke, Lü You very gentlemanly opened the car door and waited for Bai Mengfei to get in.

Bai Mengfei got into the car and sat inside.

As Bai Mengfei fastened her seatbelt, she heard Lü You ask, "What's your relationship with that person just now? He seemed to care about you a lot."

Without hesitation, Bai Mengfei replied, "He's just a colleague, a regular friend, but he might like me a little."

"And what about you? Do you like him?" Lü You pressed.

Bai Mengfei skillfully avoided the topic and said to Lü You, "Let's set off first."

Fearing he would cause trouble, Lü You nodded slightly and started the car.

Halfway through the journey, Bai Mengfei finally responded to Lü You's question, saying, "I love him very much, but because of some things, I can't be with him."

Lu You was good at reading people's expressions. Seeing that Bai Mengfei's brows were furrowed, as if she had something difficult to say, he did not press her for more information.

After having dinner with Bai Mengfei, Lü You took her back to his home.

He sensed that Bai Mengfei seemed to have nowhere to go, and his intuition was always accurate. Bai Mengfei was indeed planning to stay at a hotel. After all, she didn't have much money on her, and she had just broken up with Zhao Fei. She was too embarrassed to ask Zhao Fei for a spare key, so she could only stay at Lü You's place for the time being.

Upon arriving at Lü You's house, Bai Mengfei said with a hint of apology, "I feel really bad for troubling you all the time."

"It's alright, as you can see, I have plenty of rooms." Lu You said with a smile, "Besides, I'm also hoping you can solve the case as soon as possible. If you need any help while staying here, I can lend a hand, right?"

Bai Mengfei felt that Lü You's words made sense, after all, investigating the case was the top priority. Seeing that Lü You was so polite, she said gratefully, "Yes, thank you."

"You're welcome. If you're tired, you can go upstairs and rest first," Lü You said.

"Okay." Bai Mengfei replied and headed towards the stairs. But halfway up, she suddenly remembered something, stopped, and said to Lü You, "By the way, I'd like to ask you for a favor."

"What is it?" Lü You asked enthusiastically.

After a moment's thought, Bai Mengfei said, "Could I have a laptop and a data cable? I need them urgently."

Lu You lowered his head and thought for a moment, then decisively agreed: "No problem, wait a moment, I'll call Xiaoman to prepare."

"Okay, thank you so much." Bai Mengfei maintained the proper respect for Lü You, which allowed them to keep a suitable distance from each other.

After returning to her room, Bai Mengfei went to wash up.

She hadn't finished washing when she heard a knock on the door.

Thinking that Lü You had acted so quickly, she assumed it was him coming to find her, so she hurriedly said, "I'm taking a shower, can you wait a moment?"

"Okay." Unexpectedly, it was Xiaoman's voice coming from outside, "Zhang Ting, take your time washing, I'll wait for you here."

Bai Mengfei quickly sped up her work, then wrapped herself in a bath towel and ran out of the bathroom.

Seeing Xiaoman waiting outside for quite a while with her computer and data cable, she quickly smiled apologetically and said, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting so long."

"It's ok."

Xiaoman handed over the alien laptop and a data cable. She turned to leave, but then stopped, turned back, and looked at Bai Mengfei with a serious expression.

After looking at it for a while, she said to Bai Mengfei, "You should really consider what I told you yesterday. I'll wait for your answer."

Bai Mengfei forced an awkward yet polite smile and said, "Okay, I'll think about it."

She had a gut feeling that this case was different from the previous ones and that things should be clear soon, so she used delaying tactics.

Xiaoman didn't think much of it, just replied "Mm" and left.

After Xiaoman left, Bai Mengfei immediately turned on her computer, logged into her phone, and contacted Jiang Shuai.

"Jiang Shuai, are you there?" Bai Mengfei texted Jiang Shuai.

Jiang Shuai quickly replied: "Yes, what's up?"

"I would like to ask you for a favor: to check the surveillance cameras on a certain section of road."

After Bai Mengfei finished speaking, she found the restaurant and the location of the female victim on the online map and instructed Jiang Shuai to help investigate the surveillance footage of that day.

Jiang Shuai, possessing superb hacking skills, helped Bai Mengfei conduct an illegal investigation.

It was discovered that after leaving that day, the female victim had been with a young man.

The young man walked with a swaying gait, and kept glancing at the female victim's hands.

So Bai Mengfei asked Jiang Shuai to zoom in on the female victim's hand. Only after zooming in did they discover that the female victim was wearing an expensive watch.

At the same time, a small action of the pretty boy was magnified in Bai Mengfei's eyes: he took out a cigarette and lit it.

After investigating these details, Bai Mengfei immediately zoomed in on the female victim's hand, took a screenshot, and saved it to her phone.

That evening, she went downstairs to find Lü You to cooperate with the investigation and asked Lü You if he recognized the watch.

"This is the Patek Philippe that she begged me to buy for her. She said that many of her friends' boyfriends had bought them for them, and she wanted me to buy one too, so I did."

Lu You recognized the watch at a glance and said, "I remember she was wearing this when we broke up that day."

From Lü You's words, Bai Mengfei sensed that the female victim seemed to have quite a few watches, so she asked Lü You, "Did she have many watches?"

“Yes, I bought her Seagull, Longines, and Rolex watches before, but she lost them all. I guess this is the only one left now, so the one she was wearing that day must have been this one.” Lu You said with certainty.

At this moment, Bai Mengfei was thinking to herself.

The deceased woman probably used all those documents to curry favor with that pretty boy.

However, this was just her guess, so she didn't say it aloud and continued to ponder it.

Could it be that the young man saw the new watch and became greedy, and the female victim refused to give it to him, thus bringing about his death?

After quickly reviewing the events in her mind, Bai Mengfei asked Lü You, "Do you know if she has any other close male friends besides you?"
