Chapter 285: Unpredictable



Old Wang had a clear mind. She knew very well that Chen Jiming did not have the courage to commit suicide.

But what about now? Chen Jiming died mysteriously! This is truly unbelievable.

Chen Jiming was a strong, muscular man, and a skilled fighter. In the army, he was even more fearless and valiant, a true warrior.

It was also because of this that this poor boy from the countryside was able to overcome all obstacles and eventually become the deputy head of the group.

Therefore, Old Wang firmly believed that Chen Jiming did not die by suicide, but was murdered by someone else.

However, even though she knew the truth, she had no intention of making it public. After all, a man's death would not stand up to investigation.

She was not stupid. If she chose to keep silent, Chen Jiming would be declared a martyr and his family would naturally receive the generous pension.

But if the truth is revealed, once the higher-ups launch an in-depth investigation, many things will probably be exposed!

By then, not to mention Chen Jiming himself, even she herself might not be able to escape jail! In the past, she had run errands for Chen Jiming a lot.

Although I was forced to do it every time and had no choice, no matter what, I was still involved in it.

If the truth were to be discovered, the consequences would be unimaginable! So, after careful consideration, Lao Wang decided to keep this secret deep in his heart...

She was lost in thought when suddenly footsteps were heard, and then two officers with tall postures and serious expressions appeared in front of her.

It turned out that they came here to conduct an in-depth investigation into the cause of Chen Jiming's death.

When he heard the name "Chen Jiming", Qin Wan just raised his head slightly, listened to a few words casually, and then lost interest.

No one knew the true story behind Chen Jiming's death better than she did. In fact, in her opinion, a weak and incompetent man like Chen Jiming deserved to die a hundred times.

If she had not considered that the institute was worried that this incident would bring instability to the army and affect internal stability and unity, she would have been eager to arrest Chen Jiming and punish him in public as a warning to others.

I really don’t know how Chen Jiming thinks about the problem!

He has a gentle and virtuous wife and lively and lovely children at home, and such a happy family life. How dare he do something so bold as to betray the national interests?

It's really puzzling!

After returning from Chen's house yesterday, Qin Wan carefully put Chen Jipeng's diary into her bag and took it back home.

After nightfall, Qin Wan sat at the desk, turned on the desk lamp, and gently opened the diary.

All night long, her eyes never left the papers, and she carefully flipped through them page by page, afraid of missing any details that might be related to the man who had successfully escaped from prison three times.

Time passed minute by minute, and Qin Wan's eyes became a little sore from concentrating on reading for a long time, but she still refused to give up and continued to scan each line of words line by line.

However, as she turned the last page, her heart sank. Despite checking so carefully, she still didn't find any clues that could help her find that person.

Who could this mysterious figure be? Why was everyone so certain he was still hidden within the army? Could it be possible he had already fled and gone into hiding somewhere else?

Countless questions flooded into Qin Wan's mind, making him feel extremely confused and anxious.

She was thinking while dressing the child. At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door. It turned out to be Aunt Zhang coming back from outside.

As soon as she walked in, she shook her head repeatedly and sighed.

Aunt Yu saw this and quickly stepped forward to inquire about the situation. Aunt Zhang sighed and said slowly:

"Deputy Commander Chen is dead! What a pity! He was so young, not even forty, and he's gone. What will happen to his two children in the future? And his wife? I've dealt with her twice before, and she was very straightforward. What a pity..."

As she spoke, Aunt Zhang couldn't help but shook her head with emotion.

"I heard her say that her old mother-in-law was very partial. After her husband died, she gave birth to two daughters. When she got home, her mother-in-law must have eaten her."

Qin Wan sat quietly at the dining table, eating one bite after another. Her eyes were focused on the delicious food in front of her and she did not participate in the conversation of the people around her.

Today's meal is the steamed buns made with water that Aunt Yu carefully prepared. The buns are very chewy and paired with steaming hot noodle soup and a small dish of salty and delicious pickles, which makes people feel particularly satisfied and enjoyable.

Aunt Yu sat aside, listening intently and with great interest. When she heard the key point, she couldn't help but ask curiously:

"How come the man died just like that?"

Although Aunt Zhang didn't know the real reason, she had heard many strange stories in her daily life, and with her rich imagination, she began to talk about it non-stop, and her words were well-reasoned and well-founded:

"This situation isn't uncommon! Back when I was a nanny in Beijing, the man looked lively and energetic during the day, but after just one night, at dawn the next day, he was gone! Later, a doctor friend of his said that he drank too much and suffered from alcohol poisoning. It seems to me that Deputy Commander Chen might be in the same boat."
