Chapter 104: Chapter 104: A Daoist

Guo Zhengchang, who was asked, remained silent for a long ti.

It seed as if the question was difficult to answer.

Stamring, Guo Zhengchang retorted, "What does my family’s villa have to do with this case?"

"Well, let

tell you, I suspect your granddaughter was used to conduct a ghost marriage for soone. Are you still sure there’s no connection?"

"What!"

Guo Zhengchang exclaid again on the other end.

Chen Xiao glanced at the ti and urged, "Elder Guo, I don’t have ti to co to you now. I have a lot to do tonight, so I hope you leave nothing unsaid."

"The villa actually has nothing inside, it’s just an empty house."

Guo Zhengchang spoke out.

Chen Xiao thought for a mont and replied, "That villa was the residence of your son and daughter-in-law, Guo Ning’s parents, before the incident. But after the incident, you had soone empty the villa, right?"

"Yes, I didn’t leave anything inside."

"Not only is there nothing left inside, but even in the villa where you and Guo Ning live, there is nothing related to your son and daughter-in-law! I’ve even reviewed all the videos and letters Guo Ning sent you, and none of them ntion her parents!"

"What happened to her parents to make a girl like Guo Ning unwilling to ntion them?"

Chen Xiao asked question after question.

Guo Zhengchang sighed deeply on the other end of the call, "Her parents didn’t love each other, and her mother didn’t like her either. Their marriage was stealing soone else’s love! So, she never wanted to talk about her parents. After their incident, I cleared away everything related to them and erased traces of them."

"Why would only her parents’ matters relate to her death!"

"Because Guo Ning saw what her mother truly thought in her heart!"

Guo Zhengchang suddenly fell silent, unsure if it was shock or so other reason.

Chen Xiao didn’t speak much more to him, only instructing Guo Zhengchang to send the found information over, then hurriedly hung up the phone.

After getting the information, Chen Xiao drove away from Xiaofeng Village as quickly as possible.

His destination was just one place, Nanqiao Town.

In this town, there was not only the pilot site of their household appliance rural project but also many residents.

Among them was a household with only one person, that was a Daoist!

The Daoist moved here many years ago, appearing as a young lad when he arrived.

But it was unknown where he learned the skills to preside over funerals. He went from initially being ignored to eventually becoming quite a renowned master in the surrounding towns.

However, that old Daoist fell ill and passed away in the first half of the year, and the house seed unoccupied ever since.

Only on this night, the door of the old Daoist’s house was suddenly opened by soone.

The person entered quietly closed the door, and imdiately saw the Daoist’s portrait in the main hall.

Before the portrait was an incense burner, with many incense sticks inside it, indicating that people often ca here to pay tribute.

But the person who entered only glanced at it and imdiately began searching.

He kept searching throughout the house and suddenly returned to the main hall, staring straight at the shelf where the portrait was placed.

Then, he walked step by step to the shelf, removed the portrait, and as he patted the wall, his eyes widened.

Just when he tried to touch the wall again, there was a knock at the door behind him.

"Knock, knock, knock... ."

"Old Lou, what are you looking for? Do you need my help to find it?"

Lou Yang was standing at the door, calmly looking at Lou Xiaodong.

The latter trembled all over hearing this, "You beast, tell , what’s hidden in the secret compartnt?"

Lou Yang’s expression remained unchanged, as he entered the main hall without closing the door, smiling and asking:

"Do you think what’s inside is important?"

"Of course it’s important. I need to know if it’s really you, this beast, who did it!"

Lou Yang finally furrowed his brow and asked one word at a ti, "Then do you know who I am to you?"

"I... ."

Lou Xiaodong was about to speak, but Lou Yang already rushed over and grabbed him by the neck, pressing him hard against the wall.

Lou Xiaodong stared incredulously into Lou Yang’s increasingly reddening eyes, rasping, "You... are you going to kill

too?"

"If you still care about the slightest bit of familial blood relations, then you should know what you need to do." Lou Yang did not let go, but his voice grew even lower.

Lou Xiaodong gasped for breath, "You think if I spare you, Chen Xiao will spare you? He’s figured it out, he guessed it all!"

"Oh... he guessed it huh? But even if he guessed it, what can he do to ?"

"What can he do to you? Can you dare tell

what’s in the secret compartnt!"

Lou Yang suddenly grinned, directly opening the secret compartnt, then taking out a scroll from inside.

As the scroll was unfolded, Lou Xiaodong’s pupils widened bit by bit.

"So that’s it, so that’s it...!"

Lou Yang grinned, "Old Lou, that Chen Xiao is indeed impressive, but so what? All the skills I have were taught by you! Taught since I was a child!"

Lou Xiaodong shivered, "How did you beco like this, how did it co to this!"

"Shut up!" Lou Yang suddenly roared.

"Don’t you really not know why I turned out like this? If it weren’t for your stupidity back then, how could Mom have left? If Mom hadn’t left, how could I have beco a holess orphan!"

"If it weren’t for the teacher giving

a bowl of rice, I would have died long ago, do you know?"

"Yes, you’re a policeman, you’re remarkable, you eliminate harm for the people! But what about ? Did you ever think about ?!"

Lou Yang’s words caused Lou Xiaodong to shed silent tears, but Lou Yang coldly sneered, "Don’t shed those disgusting tears in front of , do you really think I called you dad to nd our relationship? I just wanted to use you as a stepping stone to get close to Chen Xiao!"

"However, he really surprised , letting you co to find

first. But if he sent you, doesn’t that an he has no better solution? Suspicions? Let him suspect, the court isn’t his family’s business."

"Moreover, Old Lou, I didn’t admit anything!

Lou Xiaodong closed his eyes in pain, "Xiao Yang, you’re underestimating him, underestimating police interrogation, underestimating the court trial!"

Lou Yang frowned again, "Stop telling

useless things, I’ll ask you just one question, how do you choose this ti!"

"Son, surrender yourself! Whether it’s Chen Xiao or the police investigating before, even if Hu Yue suspects you, it’s useless for you to hide anywhere in this life!"

Lou Yang’s hand suddenly exerted strength.

Lou Xiaodong seed to have given up struggling and stopped moving.

Lou Yang’s eyes were red, but in the end, he released his grip, rasping, "I really want to strangle you!"

Saying this, Lou Yang, all by himself, ignited the scroll. Lou Xiaodong, leaning against the shelf, breathed heavily.

As the scroll burned, the originally dim room beca brighter.

Lou Yang faced away from the door, with indifferent eyes watching as the scroll burned away bit by bit.

In the light of the fire, he suddenly noticed a figure appearing on the glass of the shelf.

The figure just leaned against the doorfra, silently watching him.

Lou Yang turned abruptly, exclaiming in disbelief, "When did you co in!"
