Quick Transmigration: Irresistible Beauty-Chapter 262: The Gentle Psychiatrist (32)
Yue Ran did not give Tang Meng any chance to speak her mind (to tell Yue Ran that she wanted to give up on the case) during the call and she (Yue Ran) even made some suggestions on her own without a pause.
The young woman was actually busy with work at the moment, so when she received Tang Meng's call, she only thought that Tang Meng wanted to ask her for some advice as usual again.
Not wanting to waste any more time on useless things, Yue Ran decided to blurt out the clues for the suicide cases so that the female protagonist could just continue to do her own thing without disturbing her any further.
Yue Ran: This female protagonist is so troublesome. Can she not do things herself? Why does she always feel the need to bother me all the time?
After a pause of silence from the other side, Yue Ran asked, "Sorry, are you not here to ask for advice? I am currently at work, so I am in a hurry."
"Ah, uh, no, um, it is alright," Tang Meng stammered. "Thank you, Doctor Yue, please continue your work first!"
After saying so, Tang Meng quickly hung up the phone. She now felt a little more confident after hearing Yue Ran's words. Now, Tang Meng felt like she had a direction to go, and she knew what to find for this seemingly hopeless case that seemed to have no beginning or end. She will not give up on this case anytime soon!
She had previously started checking through the information of the cases and had nothing of importance to do in the police station anyway, so she might as well continue to investigate to the end.
See, even Doctor Yue was also so concerned about her affairs, so why did she, the smart and beautiful Tang Meng, think of giving up even though she was the first one to want to take over this closed case that others had deemed hopeless when Yue Ran herself did not?
With that said, Tang Meng now feels vaguely guilty towards Yue Ran. Doctor Yue had obviously taken her matter to heart, so Doctor Yue had kindly given her advice to her, but she felt that Yue Ran was being too nosy, annoying, and bossy that she had badmouthed her. Now Tang Meng felt that it was an act of betrayal to Yue Ran's good intentions.
"In the end, no matter whether I will find out anything or not, I still have to thank her properly," Tang Meng said this to herself to reduce the guilt in her heart.
To thank others? One should know that the female protagonists of every world are rather forgetful of other people's kindness and would soon not take these kind deeds to heart. So these feelings of gratefulness towards the others would only be a temporary thing, and repaying goodwill with goodwill is nothing but an idea.
Tang Meng sighed and drove to the house of the first victim.
After talking to the people there and understanding things from their own perspective, Tang Meng discovered that once Liang Xu had moved in, he had only been studying here for a year or two before moving away. Apart from his parents, he basically had no interpersonal relationships with other people. Most of the children in Liang Xu's class regarded him as a transparent person, a nonexistent person, and only a few people were willing to talk to him.
"Doctor Yue, Liang Xu has moved here and has no friends here at all, and most of his classmates do not like him nor have a good relationship with him," Tang Meng said after calling Yue Ran on the phone again to tell Yue Ran the results of her investigation.
"I remembered that you have said before that Liang Xu was teased and bullied by his classmates for stealing a girl's clothes," Yue Ran said. "So, have you investigated this matter in detail?"
"Ah, yes, I did," Tang Meng replied. "The girl who had her clothes stolen by Liang Xu was actually the most popular girl in the class. Although there was no direct evidence or witness to point out that Liang Xu had committed this crime, the surveillance did show that Liang Xu had indeed gone into the girls' locker room. As for why he did so, no one was sure about it."
"Hm," Yue Ran hummed, feeling the urge to sigh out loud again.
Does the female protagonist not see how sketchy the words "no direct evidence or witness" and "no one was sure about it" were? Yue Ran would bet the existence of the world that Tang Meng had not searched this thing in detail, yet again. Why does the female protagonist always miss the huge target when it is staring right at her face?
"Could it be possible that he was framed by others?" Yue Ran said from the phone. "According to the investigation, he does not seem to be such a person."
"Er, about this…" Tang Meng contemplated for a while. "Um, I will have to check this out first." ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
Yue Ran: I bet right and so the world could live on safely as per usual.
…
Once Yue Ran has decided to start working seriously, her level of commitment will not be lower than anyone else's. This was why she found herself too busy to even listen to the female protagonist talking to her on the phone.
After working on academic-related content for several days, the young woman had to sigh that the spirit of a human was indeed a very interesting subject. She was learning new things and these could be of great use for her future endeavors.
...
On the other hand, Cheng Ying had not heard any news from Yue Ran for several days since the last time he saw her, which was their last appointment at her house before the young woman took him back to his home.
