Chapter 254 What was the cause of death?



Wang Zhenguo came with Fang Hui by himself.

Because the journey was too far, and because Wang Zhenguo was worried about his parents, he told his grandfather to stay home and wait for news.

When they arrived at the police station, the autopsy report was already available.

Xu Weiguo first took Wang Zhenguo to see Wang Xiufen's body, asking him to confirm whether it was indeed Wang Xiufen.

When Wang Zhenguo saw Wang Xiufen's body, his heart was broken.

Before, when Wang Xiufen was at home, she wasn't exactly chubby, but she was still quite healthy and had some flesh on her bones.

But now Wang Xiufen is so thin she's just skin and bones, and her hair is all dry and yellow. One can only imagine how much suffering she endured before she died.

When Wang Zhenguo broke down in tears, Xu Weiguo and Fang Hui thoughtfully withdrew, giving him some private space.

About ten minutes later, Wang Zhenguo came out himself. His voice was hoarse as he said, "This is my sister. May I ask what the real cause of her death was?"

"Sure, let's talk in the office."

Although Xu Weiguo had seen many corpses, it did not mean that he could remain completely unmoved in front of them.

Back in his office, Xu Weiguo wanted to pour them a glass of water, but Wang Zhenguo refused, saying, "Deputy Director Xu, there's no need for water. Just get to the point."

"Okay, this is the autopsy report from the forensic doctor. Of course, there was no autopsy, just a preliminary examination."

Xu Weiguo handed the autopsy report to Wang Zhenguo: "I've read it. It states that Comrade Wang Xiufen's cause of death was strangulation."

“There were obvious strangulation marks on her neck. Based on the forensic doctor’s experience, he determined that they were the fingerprints of an adult male. The murderer should be Xu Jingui or Xu Weimin.”

After reading the preliminary autopsy report, Wang Zhenguo's hands tightened, making the report creak.

The document not only stated the cause of Wang Xiufen's death, but also that she suffered from severe malnutrition before her death.

The Xu family isn't so poor that they can't even afford food. If Wang Xiufen is suffering from severe malnutrition, then she must have already decided she didn't want to live anymore.

Or perhaps she was unhappy living in the Xu family and could only force herself to eat whatever she could find, just enough to keep her from starving.

Wang Zhenguo was filled with hatred!

It's not that he hates others, it's that he hates himself!

He hated himself for not daring to take Wang Xiufen away directly, and he hated himself for not visiting her even once all these years.

Ultimately, it's because he's afraid of Xu Weimin and his group.

They were afraid of retaliation, and afraid that if they brought Wang Xiufen home, others would look at their family with strange eyes.

Even more frightening was the thought that he might not be able to resist showing Wang Xiufen a hateful look.

Because deep down, Wang Zhenguo harbored resentment towards Wang Xiufen.

He felt that if Wang Xiufen hadn't gone to the state-run restaurant to celebrate her birthday, she wouldn't have met Xu Jingui.

Then Grandma Wang wouldn't have died because of this, and their family wouldn't have suffered such a huge tragedy.

Wang Zhenguo knew that his thoughts were actually quite unreasonable, but he couldn't control himself.

So when he learned that Wang Xiufen had told her family not to look for her, he was happy.

Later, Grandpa Wang even told him to go to the city to look for Wang Xiufen whenever he had free time.

He always just brushed them off casually. Gradually, Grandpa Wang gave up. Until two years ago, when they learned that Wang Xiufen had passed away.

Wang Zhenguo then realized that although he harbored resentment towards Wang Xiufen, he still cared about her deeply.

But the person is gone, so everything has lost its meaning.

When Wang Zhenguo saw Wang Xiufen's body, he felt that he was also one of the murderers who killed her.

Wang Xiufen must have been hoping that her family would come to see her and that they were thinking of her too.

But she never saw any of her family members again before she died. In fact, Wang Xiufen was the one who suffered the most.

She was only 15 years old at the time, and not only was she assaulted, but she was also forced to leave with a stranger for the safety of her family.

Wang Zhenguo felt like he was a bastard, and Wang Xiufen must have been extremely desperate and scared at the time.

With red eyes, Wang Zhenguo asked with his head down, "Now that we can confirm that my sister was murdered, can we arrest them?"

"Not yet, we have to wait..."

"Wait?! Why should we wait?!"

"Haven't we already found the evidence?! Why are we waiting! Are you trying to protect them?!"

When Wang Zhenguo heard Xu Weiguo say that they would have to wait until the right time, he instantly lost control of his emotions.

Seeing his agitation, Xu Weiguo and Fang Hui quickly reassured him, "No, how could we possibly protect them?"

"Calm down first, and let us explain."

"We said we had to wait a moment mainly because we had analyzed the situation and concluded that the murderer was very likely Xu Jingui."

“We need to find a way to get Xu Weimin to take the blame for Xu Jingui, otherwise even if Xu Jingui pays with his life, you will likely still be targeted by Xu Weimin for revenge in the future.”

After listening, Wang Zhenguo calmed down a bit, but still asked with bloodshot eyes, "What about Xu Jingui? Are we just going to let him get away with it?"

Xu Weiguo gave him a reassuring smile: "How could that be? We've already planned it out."

"Once Xu Weimin is willing to take the blame and is sentenced, someone will immediately accuse Xu Jingui of hooliganism, and none of them will be able to escape!"

"Okay, then we'll follow your arrangements. We'll wait a bit longer."

......

After Huang Qinqin treated Zhang Yumei and the others' wounds, she discovered that the one who was most seriously injured was actually Xu Hongxia.

Zhang Yumei looked at the scars on Xu Hongxia's face and felt heartbroken: "Hongxia, why didn't you behave and stay in the room?"

"Look at this face, so many wounds. Won't they leave scars?"

Xu Hongxia was also frustrated: "I heard you fighting in the room, and I was afraid you would get hurt, so I went out."

"Who knew that Xu Daya would target me and beat me up like that? As if I had some kind of grudge against her!"

Xu Hongxia carefully touched the wound on her face: "Ouch~"

"Mom, sister-in-law, will I really have a scar on my face? Wouldn't that look awful?"

"How could it leave scars? Although you have many wounds, they are all scratches from fingernails. They are all very shallow wounds, and they will be fine once they scab over."

Huang Qinqin has experience with this kind of wound. When she was a child, she and her brothers often went up the mountain when they returned to the village, and they had more or less scratches on their bodies and faces.

Knowing that such a shallow wound will almost never leave a scar.

"That's good. If it won't leave a scar, then I'm not afraid."

"By the way, sister-in-law, why didn't my brother come back with you?"

Oh right, the others then realized, where is Xu Junhui?
