A Female Forensic Doctor Transmigrates into a Book as the Female Supporting Character Chapter 412-End - 412: Finale
Previously on A Female Forensic Doctor Transmigrates into a Book as the Female Supporting Character...
Feng Jing didn't just secure prestige; his brother's long-standing kidnapping case also reached a conclusion as old dealings in the black market surfaced.
The perpetrator behind the kidnapping, it turned out, was a key figure within the black market, who had also served as a trusted subordinate to Wan Zhe’s father at the time.
Feng Jing found it hard to fathom that business rivalries could drive someone to commit such a heartless act.
However, Wan Zhe’s father had gravely underestimated Feng Jing’s grandfather. The Old Master, far from collapsing under the grief of his grandson’s death, instead rallied and diligently managed the Wan family's affairs, weathering the tragedy with fortitude.
“Xiaotao, are you truly not attending Captain Feng’s commendation ceremony?” Bai Luo inquired, adjusting her attire as she addressed Yin Tao, who was engrossed in her mobile phone, scrolling through news updates.
“I’m part of the forensics department; it’s not a significant loss if I’m absent,” Yin Tao replied, slumping onto the table listlessly. It had been an extended period since she and Feng Jing parted ways in Huaiying County, with only a handful of phone calls bridging the silence between them.
Su Ning had arranged for Yin Tao to impart her knowledge at the police academy. Meanwhile, Feng Jing's responsibilities had escalated considerably as he navigated the complex web of suspects emerging from the black market investigation.
“But it’s highly probable that Captain Feng will be reassigned to headquarters this time. He’s made an immense contribution to such a major case,” Bai Luo commented, unable to fathom Yin Tao’s subdued mood. The prospect of their separation loomed large.
“I’m aware. How could City A possibly contain him?” Yin Tao understood implicitly that Feng Jing’s career trajectory would skyrocket following the resolution of his brother’s case in the original narrative. The successful handling of the black market affair would undoubtedly bring him even greater accolades.
“Then, as a member of the detective team, I have no justifiable reason to abstain,” Bai Luo stated, pushing the door open with a sense of resignation and departing. Yin Tao found herself alone in the dormitory, a wave of frustration and unease washing over her.
Yin Tao exited the dormitory, wandering along a secluded path by herself.
Seated on the stone steps in a contemplative daze, Yin Tao began to chart her future course.
“Yin Ning and Xi Feng are also tying the knot. The Yin family is flourishing under Yin Ning’s capable stewardship,” Yin Tao murmured to herself, a self-deprecating laugh escaping her lips. From her vantage point as someone privy to the plot, Yin Ning’s actions appeared remarkably sensible. She diligently worked alongside her family and strove towards a happy conclusion with the male protagonist.
“Everyone is striving for their own happiness. What exactly am I doing?” Yin Tao absently scratched her head. She recognized now how foolish her earlier attempts to distance herself from these protagonists had been.
Lost in a profound sense of ennui, Yin Tao remained in a daze as dusk began to settle. The remainder of her life felt noticeably duller. While others had found their predetermined paths, her own future remained shrouded in uncertainty.
“I should just focus on my work as a forensic doctor. Everyone else has discovered their life’s purpose; there’s nothing inherently wrong with me simply being a dedicated professional.”
Yin Tao attempted to console herself as best she could. Just as she was about to rise and return to the dormitory, a numbness spread through her legs. Before she could lose her balance, she was drawn into a warm embrace.
“If you intend to be a diligent professional, you must at the very least take good care of yourself.” Feng Jing gazed at the slightly bewildered Yin Tao, gently pinching her cheek.
“Has the commendation ceremony concluded? Wasn’t there supposed to be a celebratory banquet?” Yin Tao asked, her gaze fixed on Feng Jing, who was clad in his police uniform. She mused that he had been significantly underestimated as a mere supporting character in the original novel.
“If you aren’t there to celebrate with me, what kind of celebration would this be?” Feng Jing’s gentle voice posed the question as he looked at Yin Tao. “What troubles you, Xiaotao? Are you perhaps unhappy about my potential transfer and return to the capital?”
“I am happy. You’ll be able to see your family more frequently when you return to the capital. Grandpa will surely be overjoyed.”
As Yin Tao’s disappointment became increasingly apparent, Feng Jing lowered his head and softly kissed the corner of her mouth.
“What are you doing? Someone might see us!” Yin Tao hadn’t anticipated Feng Jing’s sudden kiss. She quickly glanced around, relieved that their secluded spot offered some measure of privacy.
“Come back to the capital with me. I’ve already discussed it with Chief Wang An. My motivation is tied to working alongside you, which is why he’s consented to your transfer to the Municipal Public Security Bureau in the capital.”
“Did you really have to phrase it so sentimentally?” Yin Tao remarked with feigned disdain, though a smile couldn’t help but play on her lips.
“I was merely teasing you. The forensic doctor position within the Municipal Public Security Bureau is nearing retirement age, and the bureau’s leadership had already been considering a transfer for you. Your exceptional skills are simply too remarkable to overlook.”
“That’s more like it. I told you that I’m very capable. In the future, you can’t hold me back when we go to the Municipal Public Security Bureau.”
The gloominess on Yin Tao’s face completely dissipated. When she thought of working with Feng Jing in the future, Yin Tao felt that life was filled with joy. As long as the male lead who belonged to her didn’t leave, their own story would start over..
