Chapter 146: Becoming the Murderer (1/2)

When I suggested that Bingxin should participate in Murder Reenactment, Xiaotao opposed it immediately.

“It’s already risky enough letting her join us in the investigation,” she said. “And now you’re suggesting her to do such a dangerous thing? If Sun Tiger finds out, he won’t do anything to you, but I’ll be in deep trouble!”

“Why do you need to mention my dad all the time?” Bingxin argued. “I want to contribute to the investigation and help catch the murderer. Besides, Song Yang-gege will always protect me, right?”

“Contribute?” Xiaotao raised an eyebrow. “So you really insist on being part of the investigative team now, huh?”

Bingxin pursed her lips and replied, “If Song Yang-gege can be a consultant to the police, why can’t I be one too? I’m a medical student who specializes in forensic pathology! I have the qualifications!”

“Oh, please,” Xiaotao sighed. “If it wasn’t for your father, I would’ve asked you to leave a long time ago.”

The two stared each other down with their arms akimbo. I tried to defuse the situation by saying, “Let Bingxin do it this time, Xiaotao. Don’t worry, the dose isn’t high and the four of us will be with her at all times to protect her, so she’ll be fine. If there’s the slightest sign that something’s wrong, I’ll wake her up immediately.”

“Is there really no other way?” asked Xiaotao with a frown.

“Not if we want to catch Qu Tingting tonight,” I said.

Xiaotao heaved a long sigh.

“Let’s be very careful, then,” she finally relented.

“Awesome!” cried Bingxin as she clapped her hands in excitement. “What should we do first?”

I took Qu Tingting’s nurse uniform which was hanging on the wall and gave it to Bingxin. She changed into it, then put on the nurse’s cap too. Although her figure wasn’t as good as Xiaotao’s, her temperament suited the nurse uniform much more. With the outfit on, she transformed convincingly into a kind and gentle nurse.

“Do I look like a nurse?” Bingxin asked.

“To a T!” cried Dali, pretending to wipe away his nosebleed. “If you were a real nurse, I’d break my own leg just to get admitted into the hospital!”

“Oh, stop it!” Bingxin responded with a smile.

“The princess has transformed into a nurse!” Xiaotao teased her. “What a sight!”

Bingxin was about to launch her counterattack, but I felt the need to stop them before they got embroiled in another fight.

“Let’s hurry up!” I said. “We’ve got no time to waste!”

I smeared the Dream Elixir on a wooden mask and told Bingxin to put it on.

“Nothing’s happening, Song Yang-gege!” she said after putting on the mask. “Does anyone else smell a strange fragrance? It’s…” She stopped mid-sentence and was now standing still like a puppet.

I slowly said to her, “You are Qu Tingting. Remember that, you are Qu Tingting…”

After repeating it several times, Bingxin suddenly spoke again.

“I am Qu Tingting,” she said in a voice that sent shivers down my spine. “I am Qu Tingting and I love Dr. Cheng, but he never wants to look at me. He is always surrounded by beautiful women, and I want to take him away from them. I will kill every woman that comes near him!”

The last sentence was spoken in a tone so serious that it disturbed us very much. Even Wang Yuanchao subconsciously reached out to his gun because of it.
