Zhou Da Kui and the others were still discussing this matter.
After all, the place where the murder took place was near their village, so it was a bit scary to think about it.
Zhou Xiaojun simply went back with them, while Song Xingzhi rode his bike back by himself.
Upon learning that they had carried Zhong Chengyi's body to Zhongjia Village, Song Xingzhi thanked them again and immediately went to Zhongjia Village.
When he arrived at Zhongjia Village, he saw that many people had gathered in the small courtyard where Zhang Chunxue and her family lived. There were torches everywhere. It was dark at night, and the flickering flames reflected the solemn expressions on everyone's faces.
Song Xingzhi parked his bicycle outside the yard and walked in quickly.
A mourning tent had been set up in the yard, but because of the special cause of Zhong Chengyi's death and the lack of funeral clothes, he just lay on the stretcher.
Grandpa Qi also came. He was obviously woken up from his sleep and was still dozing off while sitting aside.
Many members of the Zhong family came. No matter what, this was a matter of the Zhong family's bloodline, and they couldn't ignore it.
Several elders gathered together to discuss how to deal with the funeral, and even Liu Cui'e came.
At this moment, she acted like a grandmother who loved her grandson, sitting outside the mourning shed, patting her thigh and crying.
Zhong Chengfa stopped crying and was now holding Zhong Hongqing, who had also been woken up, and was in a daze.
Song Xingzhi saw Zhong Aiguo at first sight.
He knew that all of this must have been done by Zhong Aiguo, so he walked over and thanked him first.
Zhong Aiguo waved his hand and whispered, "Don't thank me. We need to deal with this matter quickly... I heard that it was Zhong Chengren who did it?"
Song Xingzhi nodded silently.
Zhong Aiguo couldn't help but curse, "That damn beast! This is his own brother!"
He spoke again with concern, "Haruyuki said you were injured? Is it serious?"
Song Xingzhi said in a deep voice: "It's okay, I just cut my palm and it's been stitched."
Zhong Aiguo finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Song Xingzhi joined the Zhong family in arranging Zhong Chengyi's funeral.
Although Zhong Chengyi has separated from the family, in name, Zhong Chengyi is still his son. He can't just push all these things onto the Zhong family.
When it was daybreak, Zhang Chunxue also came with Zhou Mingli, her mother and daughter, and Song Yanshen.
Seeing Song Xingzhi, Zhang Chunxue immediately checked his injuries and only breathed a sigh of relief after making sure they had been completely healed.
Song Xingzhi smiled slightly: "I told you it's okay. The doctor also said that you did a good job with the first aid measures."
Zhang Chunxue sighed: "Isn't this just worrying me?"
As Zhong Chengyi's biological mother, she joined in the funeral arrangements as soon as she arrived.
The funeral was carried out in an extremely hasty manner, but the mourning tent was still arranged in an orderly manner inside and out.
Although the Zhong family was surprised and saddened by Zhong Chengyi's death, they did not neglect the tasks at hand.
Liu Cui'e's crying was intermittent, which made people feel creepy.
Zhang Chunxue wanted to drive her away, but then she thought that she was Zhong Chengyi's biological grandmother after all, and it would be inappropriate not to have some crying at the funeral.
She couldn't cry anyway, so she just let Liu Cui'e cry!
Around eight o'clock, when it was bright, people from the county police station came.
Several police officers came in and saw Song Xingzhi at a glance.
After all, it was Song Xingzhi who came to report the case last night.
"Let's find out what happened and take a look at the body!" The leader was Zhao Weiguo, the deputy director of the police station.
After all, there was a murder case in the county, and he had to take it seriously.
"This way!" Song Xingzhi immediately took them to the place where the bodies were kept.
Several police officers examined Zhong Chengyi's body.
"One knife stabbed the abdomen, and the other stabbed the heart..." Zhao Weiguo frowned, and then sighed, "Still so young..."
He looked up at Song Xingzhi again: "You wanted to treat your wound last night, but you didn't ask clearly. Now find a quiet place?"
Zhang Chunxue said directly: "Come to my house!"
She took a few police officers and went around to the backyard and opened the door of her home which had not been opened for a long time.
Because no one has lived here for several months, the vegetable patch in the backyard is now overgrown with grass and the house is a bit damp.
Zhou Mingli also came along. When she saw this situation, she immediately handed Zhong Yuanyuan to Song Xingzhi and went to the front yard to pour water for the police officers.
Zhao Weiguo asked as a matter of routine: "What happened last night?"
Song Xingzhi and Zhang Chunxue exchanged glances and recounted everything that had happened last night.
Of course, Zhang Chunxue did not hide the fact that the murderer was her second son from the police.
Zhao Weiguo's jaw dropped when he heard this: "You mean, your second son killed your third son?"
Zhang Chunxue's expression was calm. "Well, this is the second time he's attacked me. The first time was when he tried to steal my goddaughter's money—my goddaughter is his ex-wife. He also wanted to kill her then, but failed. We reported the case to the local police station, but they've never found him."
"This time they must be trying to steal my money, so they used the small tree to block the road, trying to lure my husband away, and then rob him at knifepoint..."
"He just didn't expect that, by such coincidence, my third son would come back with us."
Zhao Weiguo looked at Zhang Chunxue and felt a little uncomfortable.
He felt that although this female comrade looked calm, she must be extremely sad and heartbroken.
How sad she must be to have such an unfilial son!
Zhang Chunxue didn't have the emotions he'd imagined. Instead, she continued, "Public Security, I hope you can find Zhong Chengren as soon as possible! He's like a ticking time bomb, and he's injured. I'm worried he'll come looking for trouble with my family at any moment."
This is what Zhang Chunxue is most worried about.
Zhao Weiguo pondered for a moment and said, "We will send more people to arrest Zhong Chengren as soon as possible."
Zhang Chunxue nodded slightly: "Then I'll leave it to the public security comrades."
She hesitated again before speaking: "Then my son...can be buried now?"
Zhao Weiguo sighed: "Let's bury him!"
They checked the cause of death and found out that he was killed by two knife wounds.
The police came and left quickly.
They mainly came to investigate the cause of Zhong Chengyi's death and what happened yesterday. Now they have to rush back to deploy people and catch the escaped Zhong Chengren.
But they were quite confident. After all, Zhong Chengren was injured. According to Zhang Chunxue, the wound on his back was deep and long. If he didn't want to die from infection and inflammation, he must go to the hospital.
After Zhang Chunxue saw them off and walked back to the front yard, she saw Zhong Chengfa sitting there woodenly.
She only has this one son now.
