Chapter 52 Broken Happiness
Everyone else heard what Shen Shixu said to 011, and Jiang Bin couldn't help but shudder. His cold-faced cousin was cute, and his master might have a problem with his eyes.
Xiao Jinyi was a little shy. Although she didn't show it on her face, her ears were red and there was joy in her eyes.
After Shen Shixu said this to 011, he wondered if there was something wrong with his brain. He actually said such words. Fortunately, he said it in his heart and no one else knew. Otherwise, how could he face Xiao Jinyi?
When Shen Shixu regretted it, everyone came to Chunshui Hutong. Shen Shixu saw their destination, became serious and led people into the alley.
"Zhang Ming, you lead the way. Let's go to the home of the only butcher in Chunshui Hutong."
Zhang Ming and Jiang Bin were not stupid enough. When they heard that he was going to find a butcher, they suddenly woke up from a dream and remembered what the coroner had said during the autopsy: the wound on the deceased's back was caused by a butcher's knife.
Guo Yongshun had offended a butcher before, so thinking about it, the butcher was the most likely person to have committed the murder.
Zhang Ming led his men through many twists and turns and arrived at a courtyard at the innermost part of Chunshui Hutong. This courtyard was a bit far from the surrounding residents, but it was also quite reasonable.
When pigs are slaughtered, they will definitely scream, which is an unpleasant sound. Plus, the smell from raising pigs is terrible, so naturally we have to choose a place that is far away from people.
Shen Shixu walked over and raised his hand to knock on the door, but as soon as his hand touched the door, the door opened by itself. It was obvious that the owner of the yard did not close the door.
Shen Shixu and the others walked in. Xiao Jinyi stood beside Shen Shixu in a protective manner. Shen Shixu looked around the yard. It was very clean and tidy, not as dirty and messy as he had imagined.
There was no smell of pig manure, nor any sound of pigs. There were some green vegetables planted in the corners, although they were already wilting. The yard exuded an atmosphere of tranquility and happiness, which showed that the family was living a good life.
Shen Shixu called out, “Is anyone there?”
As soon as these words were shouted, the room on the left was opened, and a gloomy man appeared in front of everyone, and everyone looked at him warily.
This is because the man was holding a bloody butcher knife in his hand. The blood had already solidified on it, but the shiny blade showed that the knife was extremely sharp.
When Shen Shixu saw this man, he was not afraid at all. Instead, he smiled and walked forward a few steps, "I wonder if you can talk to me?"
If Xiao Jinyi hadn't followed, Shen Shixu might not have been so bold, but who was following him? That was their beloved God of War. Although they didn't know if he could defeat a hundred people at once, he could definitely defeat ten. It was easy for him to deal with a butcher.
The butcher looked at Shen Shixu who was talking to him with a smile, and thought that this man was very strange. Since he was able to come to his door, he must know that he had killed someone.
But he was so friendly in front of a murderer, especially when he was a government official. How could it be so strange?
"I killed someone and you didn't arrest me. You even wanted to chat with me. Is there something wrong with your brain?"
When Jiang Bin heard this man talking to his master like that, he got anxious and cursed out loud: "How can you talk like that? My master wanted to talk to you out of good intentions, but you actually cursed him!"
Shen Shixu looked at Jiang Bin who was arguing with someone, reached out and patted his shoulder and said, "He is right. It is quite strange for me to do this. You step back first. I have something to say to him."
After seeing Jiang Bin retreat after listening to him, Shen Shixu returned to Xiao Jinyi and said, "Can I ask where your wife is? This yard is so clean, and there are vegetables planted in the corners. I don't think a rough man like you can clean it up. You should have a wife who is clever and skillful."
Hearing Shen Shixu mention his wife, Feng Dayong showed a sad look, “My wife is gone, she was forced to death by Guo Yongshun, that turtle bastard!”
Hearing this, Shen Shixu showed a look of as expected on his face. When he guessed that it was the butcher who killed Guo Yongshun, he thought that his wife should be gone.
So they were not surprised at all when they heard this. Jiang Bin and the others didn't know and were shocked when they heard this.
Then he asked: "You said that Guo Yongshun forced your wife to death. Do you have any evidence? And did you kill Guo Yongshun because of this?"
When Feng Dayong heard Jiang Bin asking him for evidence, he rushed over angrily with a knife in hand. The yamen runners who came with them drew their knives and surrounded Feng Dayong.
Jiang Bin was startled when he saw him rushing towards him, and subconsciously hid behind his cousin.
Xiao Jinyi turned around and glared at him, but didn't say anything, letting him hide behind him.
Shen Shixu raised his hand to let the yamen runner put down the knife, looked at Feng Dayong calmly and said: "If you have any grievances, just tell me. I am Shen Shixu, the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple. I swear to heaven that I will make a decision for you. But after your grievances are resolved, you will also have to pay the price for your actions."
Feng Dayong had been waiting for this sentence for a long time. When he heard it, he collapsed and threw away the butcher knife in his hand. He knelt down, covered his face and cried bitterly.
"Aaaah, I have been wronged, I have been wronged so deeply. My wife was tortured to death, and my child died with his mother before he was even born. And all this is because of that scumbag Guo Yongshun. How can I not hate him and seek revenge?"
After crying, Feng Dayong told the story of how Guo Yongshun forced his wife to death. After Guo Yongshun came out of prison, he was indeed well-behaved for a while, until he used some unknown means to curry favor with the owner of Jixiang Casino.
This made him feel proud again. At the beginning, he had no intention of taking revenge on Feng Dayong's family.
Until one day when he was drunk, he saw Feng Dayong's wife Miao Qinqin carrying a basket to buy vegetables. Looking at Miao Qinqin's beautiful back, Guo Yongshun thought of the reason why he was in jail.
Suddenly, a surge of evil fire came over me and I followed him. It was a coincidence that day that Feng Dayong said he wanted to drink when he was setting up his stall in the morning.
Miao Qinqin thought that he had worked so hard for so long, and it was time to reward him. Plus, she had just diagnosed that he was pregnant, so she wanted to celebrate too.
So after buying the vegetables, I took a detour to buy a pot of wine.
To buy wine from the vegetable market, she had to pass through an alley, and it was here that Guo Yongshun ambushed Miao Qinqin and forced and humiliated her.
After being bullied, Miao Qinqin returned home in a daze. The more she thought about it, the more she felt sorry for Feng Dayong. She was so upset that she left a suicide note and hanged herself.
Feng Dayong closed his stall, bought some candied fruits that Miao Qingqing liked, and hurried home happily. He thought that when he got home he would be able to hear his wife praising him happily for buying him candied fruits, but who knew that waiting for him was only a corpse hanging from the beam, dangling!
