Chapter 100 Greed
◎Words are like sharp knives, and every word draws blood◎
Hearing Zhao Xiangwan's question, Xie Xianyun felt as if she had been hit hard. She turned her head and stared blankly at Sheng Zaizhong, who looked panicked.
"Why? Xiaozhong, why?"
[Didn't they say that they accidentally hit him and then saw him fall to the ground and got scared? Why did the police say one, two, or three times?]
Facing his mother's painful eyes, Sheng Zaizhong shook his head desperately: "Mom, don't listen to her nonsense."
It was hit once, twice, or three times. This was the source of the conflict between the mother and the son.
Sheng Zaizhong told his mother that his brain was filled with blood due to being scolded, and he grabbed something and hit something unconsciously. After his father fell to the ground, he was panicked and nervous, which made Xie Xianyun feel distressed and sympathetic.
But what if he hit it more than once? Two, three, four or five times... That's to vent his anger, to get violent.
Zhao Xiangwan saw that Xie Xianyun's heart was already waving, and took advantage of the victory to pursue: "Ms. Xie, if you don't believe it, I will take you upstairs and analyze it carefully for you. We criminal detectives are here to let the corpse, bloodstains, fingerprints... let all the evidence tell the truth."
Before Xie Xianyun could move, Sheng Zaizhong shouted anxiously, "Mom, I am your son. How could I lie to you? Do you believe me or her? Ignore her. Just follow my instructions. I'm sure you will be right."
Zhao Xiangwan turned his head and looked at Sheng Zaizhong. There was a gleam of greed in his eyes that made his scalp numb.
"I've raised you for twenty-three years, and you're so cruel! If you weren't born a bad seed, who would take such a hard and heavy trophy and smash it against your father again and again? Sheng Chenghao is your legal father, the father who spent money, effort, and thought to raise you, and the noble man who led you into the computer industry! If he hadn't helped you, why would your mother have tolerated it until today?"
The last sentence successfully struck Xie Xianyun's fragile soul. She stood up while crying and choked up, "Officer Zhao, please take me there and tell me."
At this moment, Xie Xianyun felt cold all over.
[Born a bad seed? Is it really possible to be born a bad seed? 】
[I thought that my preference and tolerance would help him become successful, but who knew...]
[No, I don't believe it, I don't believe it! ]
Sheng Zaizhong wanted to say something, but Zhao Xiangwan gave him a cold look and he shut up immediately. He stared closely at his mother's every move, fearing that he would upset her.
[In this family, I only have my mother. I only have my mother! If she gives up on me, if she doesn't love me, what should I do? No, I have to think of a way. I have to think of a way.]
Zhao Xiangwan and Xie Xianyun went up to the second floor together.
Xie Xianyun held onto the wooden handrail with one hand and moved up step by step with difficulty. She was obviously afraid and didn't dare to face it, but the determination in her heart to prove that "Xiaozhong was a good person and he just killed someone by mistake" made her grit her teeth and persevere.
Zhao Xiangwan pointed to a few drops of blood on the edge of the cabinet and said, "This is the blood caused by a heavy object hitting Sheng Chenghao's head when he was standing. Do you see it? There are only a few spots, which means the injury is not serious. This should be what someone said - in a hurry, someone picked up the trophy and hit him, and he fell down."
Zhao Xiangwan bent down and pointed at the floor around the figure outlined by the white line: "Did you see it? This is a splash of blood, centered on the head, and the blood formed a parabola with overlapping tracks after it splashed out. This shows that someone bent down and hit Sheng Chenghao on the head many times with the trophy while he was lying on the ground. It was very powerful and vicious."
The floor was made of birch, a grayish-white color, with bloodstains scattered around the white outline of the body. If you lower your head slightly, you can see it clearly.
Yesterday, Xie Xianyun knew her husband was dead. She was so confused that she didn't dare to look at the body, let alone observe the bloodstains. Her bedroom was on the second floor. Every time she passed by this study, her heart would beat fast and she always felt a chill. Last night, she was so nervous that she sprained her ankle.
Now forced to enter the study with Zhao Xiangwan, Xie Xianyun felt like she was shaking violently after hearing her words. A chill ran from her heels to the top of her head, and her heart was chilled.
Born a bad seed?
[Is it really a born bad seed? ]
[I love him, Xiaotian respects him and is close to him, Sheng Chenghao nurtures him with all his heart, is all this not enough to outweigh the shameless genes?]
Zhao Xiangwan straightened up and stood face to face with Xie Xianyun.
Xie Xianyun is petite and Zhao Xiangwan is tall. When they looked at each other, Xie Xianyun had to raise her head.
Behind me is the study window, with swaying shadows of trees.
There was a bright light flashing in Zhao Xiangwan's amber eyes.
Hearing Xie Xianyun's inner struggle, Zhao Xiangwan said softly: "Did you see clearly? He showed no mercy when he attacked. This is not manslaughter, but murder!"
Xie Xianyun's mind went blank, and he kept muttering to himself, "Murder? Murder, murder..."
Zhao Xiangwan did not give her a chance to breathe: "Do you still want to cover up for him? Do you still want another son to take the blame for him? Some people are like poisonous snakes, and you can never tame them."
Xie Xianyun was not a person of strong will. She repeated Zhao Xiangwan's words again: "Can you raise it? Can you raise it..."
Zhao Xiangwan's voice was slow and clear: "Now that Sheng Chenghao is dead, you are free and can choose which son to live with. Think carefully, will you choose a son with a bright future and a kind heart, or a son who is vicious and murdered his father and has a dark heart?"
Zhao Xiangwan's words were extremely tempting to Xie Xianyun, and she hesitated.
[Yes, he is dead and I am free. ]
[No one will beat me anymore, and no one will ask me who that man was.]
[Now that I have money, I can live a good life soon, Xiaozhong, or Xiaotian? ]
Although Zhao Xiangwan was full of contempt for Xie Xianyun in his heart, in order to lead her to tell the truth, Zhao Xiangwan took his time and tried to lure her into revealing the truth.
"It is human nature to seek benefits and avoid harm. There is no need to feel psychological pressure. You should not be emotional now and should think carefully about your future life. It is not important which son you love. What is important is which son treats you well and which son will sincerely care about you. When you are old and lying in bed unable to move one day, which son will stay by your bedside to accompany and serve you."
[What if the police arrest Xiaozhong if he tells the truth? He has never suffered from hardship since he was a child. His biological father was arrested and shot. I can't let Xiaozhong follow his old path.]
Zhao Xiangwan's words successfully moved Xie Xianyun, but she was still hesitant. The emotional balance had tilted towards Sheng Zaizhong from the beginning, and there was no way to adjust it for a while. Xie Xianyun took two steps back, leaned against the corridor railing, and said in a trembling voice: "Xiaozhong and Xiaotian are very good to me, very good."
After Zhao Xiangwan understood her inner thoughts, he said something heart-wrenching: "The eldest son is 23 years old this year and will soon get married and have children. His wife and her family will all appear in the villa. You have social phobia and cannot help him make further progress in his career. By then, your family status may decline. Right?"
Xie Xianyun nodded: "Yes."
Zhao Xiangwan continued, "The second child is only 17 years old this year and will go to Kyoto to attend university soon. He still has at least five years before he gets married and has children. During these five years, you are the only one in his life. He is studying at university in Kyoto, and you are the only one in the villa. You can plant whatever flowers you want, dance whenever you want, and sing whenever you want. How wonderful. Even if the second child gets married in the future, this villa is already your kingdom, and your family status has been established. Who can shake it?"
Xie Xianyun was confused by her words and nodded again: "Yes."
Zhao Xiangwan said: "After the boss killed Sheng Chenghao, did he want you to take the blame?"
Xie Xianyun had been lured into the trap by Zhao Xiangwan. She didn't realize that she was revealing the truth and answered honestly, "Yes. He said that he was because Sheng Chenghao called him a bastard, so he hit her. He said he was scared. I comforted him and said it didn't matter. He cried and begged me to admit that I killed angry her. It was Sheng Chenghao who beat me, so I fought back. self-defense and the police would not sentence me to death. He said I had a record of calling the police and a record of domestic violence. The judge would consider the self-defense factor and I would not sentence him to death."
Zhao Xiangwan became angry when he heard this, and his voice unconsciously brought out a hint of stiffness: "What happened next?"
Fortunately, Xie Xianyun's eyes were looking to the upper left, lost in her memories, and she didn't notice the change in Zhao Xiangwan's tone: "Then? Then I agreed. I couldn't bear to let him go. Although his biological father was not a good person, he redeemed his sins with his life. Xiaozhong was my child who I carried for ten months and gave birth to with untold hardships. I couldn't watch him die."
At this point, Xie Xianyun's thoughts were pulled back to 1970.
[Jing Xiao and I were in the same Huagu Opera Troupe. I sang the role of Huadan and he sang the role of Choujiao. He pursued me, but I disagreed. Once, he took advantage of the fact that no one was backstage in the troupe and forced me to have sex with him. I rushed out crying, and the people in the troupe arrested Jing Xiao and sent him to the Revolutionary Committee to fight. At that time, the crime of hooliganism was very serious. Jing Xiao was taken to the wilderness by a truck and shot to death. Although I hated him for forcing me, he and I sang in the same troupe and saw each other every day, so I didn't want him to die.
After Jing Xiao died, my brain became sick. I was afraid to see people, afraid of being pointed at. I could not perform on stage anymore, so I had to leave the troupe and return to my hometown in the countryside. Later, I found out that I was pregnant. My father told me not to panic, and called Sheng Chenghao, a college student who was sent to the village, to our home. After a few drinks, he became confused, and then my father asked me to sleep with him, and we got married.
At first, Sheng Chenghao thought Xiaozhong was his child, and he was very happy to take care of him. But later, he heard some gossip from somewhere, and he questioned me. I didn't know what to say, so I just cried. My dad knelt in front of Sheng Chenghao, saying that everything was arranged by him, and begged Sheng Chenghao not to abandon me because I was a pitiful person who was raped. My dad once saved Sheng Chenghao's life during a flood relief, and I was pregnant with Xiaotian at the time, so Sheng Chenghao didn't mention divorce again.
But, what is true cannot be false, and what is false cannot be true. The older Xiaozhong is, the more he looks like his biological father. Sheng Chenghao was so angry that he just scolded me at first, and then beat me. I didn't dare to resist. People like me can't sing or go on stage. I lost my innocence and personally sent Xiaozhong's biological father to the guillotine. I am a sinner. Fortunately, Xiaotian looks exactly like Sheng Chenghao, which makes Sheng Chenghao happy and holds him in his hands every day. My life has improved a little. 】
After Zhao Xiangwan roughly understood the cause and effect, he interrupted Xie Xianyun's endless recollection of the past and asked, "You agree to take the blame for the boss, then what?"
Xie Xianyun has long lived under the shadow of "I am a sinner" and her self-awareness has gradually disappeared. When she heard Zhao Xiangwan's question, she immediately stopped recalling and answered Zhao Xiangwan's question obediently.
"Although I have decided to take the blame, I am still afraid. I am in poor health and have severe asthma. If I go to prison, I will not be able to bear the poor food, clothing, and sleep conditions there. It is dirty. What if I am not sentenced to death? I might die alone in prison."
Zhao Xiangwan interrupted at the right time: "Sheng Zaitian saw that you were scared and took the initiative to ask about it, right?"
Xie Xianyun's lips curled slightly, obviously very touched by her son's thoughtfulness: "Yes, Xiaotian has always been very good. He was worried about me and came to ask me. I didn't know what to say, so Xiaozhong told him that I accidentally killed my father and was scared and didn't know what to do."
Zhao Xiangwan said "Oh", "So, Sheng Zaitian took the initiative to take the blame for you?"
Xie Xianyun felt guilty and seemed to feel that what she did was not very honest. She lowered her head in shame and said, "Yes, Xiaotian is a good kid. He was worried that I was not in good health and could not go to jail, so he took the initiative to ask for him to turn himself in. I was reluctant at the time and firmly disagreed. I always had a sense of luck, hoping that Sheng Chenghao was not beaten to death and that he was still alive."
Zhao Xiangwan understood a little bit why Sheng Zaitian said in the interrogation room that he didn't dare to go home, hoping that his father was not beaten to death. Because Sheng Zaizhong told Xie Xianyun and Sheng Zaitian the same thing, that they only hit Sheng Chenghao once and knocked him to the ground.
Xie Xianyun looked sad: "On the 25th, I completed the discharge procedures and returned home anxiously. As soon as I entered the door, I smelled a foul odor. Then I went upstairs and saw him lying motionless on the ground. I panicked. Was he really dead? He died just like that? I couldn't believe it, but I couldn't help but believe it."
Lieutenant General Sheng Zai beat Sheng Chenghao to death. In order to protect his son, Xie Xianyun took the blame on himself.
In order to protect his mother, Sheng Zaitian took full responsibility for the crime and turned himself in.
Hearing this, Zhao Xiangwan added a weight to the selfish scale in Xie Xianyun's heart: "One of them killed someone and asked you to take the blame, without considering your history of asthma; the other one heard that you had committed murder and took the blame for you, fearing that you might make a mistake. Which one loves you more, and which one is more suitable for you to live with, Ms. Xie, don't you understand?"
Xie Xianyun finally made up her mind.
She raised her head slowly, tears in her eyes: "Yes, it was Xiaozhong who killed Sheng Chenghao."
Zhao Xiangwan stuck his head out into the corridor and shouted to Liu Liangju who was sitting in the living room, "Senior Brother Liu, bring up the notebook."
When Liu Liangju heard this, he knew something was going to happen, so he stood up immediately and said, "Come on~"
Sheng Zaizhong felt something was wrong and tried to stand up, but Zhu Feipeng forced him to sit down again: "Don't move, be quiet!"
Zhu Feipeng winked at Liu Liangju and said, "Brother, go ahead. I'll take care of this grandson."
After Liu Liangju rushed upstairs in two steps, Zhao Xiangwan took Xie Xianyun to sit in the living room on the second floor and persuaded her: "So, what happened on the 22nd? Please tell us the truth."
Xie Xianyun took a deep breath and slowly told the whole story in detail.
June 21, 1995 was Sheng Zai Zhong’s birthday. Before going to the hospital, Xie Xianyun made a cake and put it in the refrigerator.
Even though she had a broken nose after being beaten by Sheng Chenghao, Xie Xianyun still cared about her son. Because of Jing Xiao's death, her anger was gradually replaced by guilt. Because of guilt and Sheng Chenghao's preference, Xie Xianyun tried to make up for it and poured all her motherly love on Sheng Zaizhong.
On the evening of the 21st, Sheng Zaizhong sent his father back to the villa. Before returning to the company, he took out a cake and wanted his father to eat with him. As a result, Sheng Chenghao looked at him coldly and sneered: "Birthdays are nothing, you should focus on the company." After that, he went upstairs.
Sheng Zaizhong looked at Sheng Chenghao's back, feeling unwilling inside, but he didn't dare to question him. He could only take the cake out and give one to the security guard, so that someone could celebrate his birthday with him.
On June 22, 1995, Sheng Chenghao had a phone call with Sheng Zaizhong at noon. After hearing him talk about the slow progress of research and development, he scolded him on the phone, calling him incompetent and useless. Finally, he roared: You are not worthy of being my, Sheng Chenghao’s, son!
Sheng Zaixin was filled with anger and couldn't help crying when he visited his mother in the afternoon. He told these words to Xie Xianyun and kept asking: Why is his father so bad to him, why is everything Xiaotian does good and everything he does is wrong?
Xie Xianyun stroked her eldest son's head, her heart aching. She consoled him, "Your father is just like that. Don't blame him. You have a mother who likes you. I think you are the best."
Sheng Zaizhong told his mother that his father asked him to go home in the afternoon to report for work, but he didn't dare to go back, fearing that he would be scolded again, and wanted his mother to go with him to build up his courage. It was rare to see her son acting like a spoiled child, so Xie Xianyun said softly, "I'll go back with you."
So, the mother and son went back to the villa together. Before leaving, they dragged Sheng Zaitian downstairs and asked him to wait in the garden downstairs. Sheng Zaitian didn't have to go to school recently. While accompanying his mother in the hospital, he taught himself computer language programming that his father had given him. He didn't ask too many questions, but took the book downstairs and sat in the small garden to read.
When they arrived at the villa, Xie Xianyun sat on the first floor to encourage Sheng Zaizhong, while Sheng Zaizhong went upstairs to find Sheng Chenghao to report his work.
Sheng Chenghao's roar came from upstairs.
After a few minutes, the roaring disappeared.
Footsteps were heard, and Xie Xianyun raised her head, watching Sheng Zaizhong walking down step by step with the crystal trophy in his hand, his face and clothes covered in blood.
Xie Xianyun was so frightened that she dared not move. After a long while, she asked tremblingly, "What, what happened?"
Sheng Zaizhong walked up to her, squatted down, hugged her waist, buried his head in her arms, and told her crying that he had accidentally beaten his father to death and he was very scared, scared to death.
So, there was the scene where Xie Xianyun was ready to take the blame for him, and Sheng Zaitian came to take the blame for his mother.
Hearing this, Zhao Xiangwan began to ask for details: "Did Sheng Zaizhong tell you why he had an argument with Sheng Chenghao?"
Xie Xianyun replied: "He didn't say anything specific, just that it was a work problem. Because he didn't get the patent, Sheng Chenghao kept blaming Xiaozhong, saying that he didn't work hard and that he ruined things. I don't understand these things. Later, he cursed him and Xiaozhong got angry, so he accidentally beat him to death."
When Xie Xianyun mentioned Sheng Chenghao, she called him by his full name. But when she mentioned Sheng Zaizhong, she called him Xiaozhong, Xiaozhong in a very intimate way.
It was originally a calculated marriage. After so many years of domestic violence, the little affection they had left had long been worn away. And the child born after being raped was shot because the perpetrator was shot. The guilty Xie Xianyun loved him deeply.
However, no matter how deep her maternal love was, it could not resist Zhao Xiangwan's calm analysis - which of the two sons should she choose? The young and easy-to-control son who protected her everywhere; or the son who schemed against her and made her take the blame?
It is human nature to seek benefits and avoid harm.
Not to mention Xie Xianyun, a woman who is extremely selfish.
Zhao Xiangwan asked again: "He was killed by accident. He only hit him once. Why is his face and clothes covered in blood?"
Xie Xianyun was stunned: "I, I don't know, I haven't thought about it."
At that moment, Xie Xianyun felt relieved when she heard that Sheng Chenghao was beaten to death. She did not doubt what Sheng Zaizhong said at all and subconsciously accepted it all.
Zhao Xiangwan asked, "Where are the bloodstained clothes in the carriage?"
Xie Xianyun said: "He went back to his room, took a shower and changed his clothes. His clothes were of few styles and colors, all white, blue and black. He said he would just throw away the clothes he took off."
Zhao Xiangwan asked: "Where did you throw it?"
Xie Xianyun shook her head: "I don't know."
Zhao Xiangwan continued to ask: "You are also covered in blood?"
Xie Xianyun said: "After I agreed to take the blame, I was so panicked that I didn't notice blood on me when Xiaozhong held me. After arriving at the hospital, Xiaotian asked me about it and I found out. I was wearing a dark green silk long-sleeved shirt and black pants at the time, so the blood didn't show up."
Zhao Xiangwan asked: "Where are the clothes?"
Xie Xianyun said: "I took a shower in the hospital and gave my clothes to Xiaozhong, asking him to throw them away in a trash can on his way back to the company. They were stained with blood and couldn't be washed off, so I didn't want them anymore."
Zhao Xiangwan didn't understand her train of thought: "Why didn't you throw it into the hospital's trash can? You were injured when you went into the hospital, and throwing away a bloody piece of clothing wouldn't be noticeable."
Xie Xianyun was stunned for a moment: "Ah, that's right. But I was a little scared at the time. I always felt that it would be too conspicuous to leave it in the hospital, and I was afraid that someone would find it, so..."
Zhao Xiangwan and Liu Liangju looked at each other, and the same word popped up in their minds at the same time - a guilty conscience.
Next, Zhao Xiangwan and Liu Liangju entered the room where the luggage was being transported and searched the car with the license plate number 999. They found multiple dark bloodstains in the corners of the bathroom, the driver's seat, and the co-pilot seat, and immediately took samples.
With all the evidence in hand, Zhao Xiangwan and others took Sheng Zaizhong and Xie Xianyun back to the Municipal Bureau.
The results of the DNA test showed that the blood found in the corner of the bathroom and on the car seat belonged to Sheng Chenghao.
According to the hospital, the person who had been sitting in the small garden on the afternoon of the 22nd was Sheng Zaitian. An elderly man in the inpatient department, a professor of computer science at Hunan University, saw Sheng Zaitian reading a professional book and stayed there for nearly an hour, discussing professional knowledge with him. The old and the young had a very happy chat.
After contacting the Huaxia Academy of Science, we learned that the reason why Sheng Chenghao was so angry with Sheng Zaizhong was because Sheng Zaizhong had called the person in charge of the key technology of Chinese character display and told him that the relevant technology developed by Haotian Group would soon be available. Huaxia Academy of Science felt that Sheng Chenghao was not sincere in cooperating, so it unilaterally stopped the patent transfer on the 21st.
The evidence is overwhelming, and the serious crime squad is arresting the suspect.
Sheng Zaizhong was taken into the interrogation room and was very calm.
He was still wearing the blue shirt, black trousers, and black leather shoes that he had brought back to the police station from the villa, but his clothes were obviously wrinkled, his hair was messy, and his beard was unshaved. His originally cute and harmless face looked a little more mature.
He saw Zhao Xiangwan and curled his lips: "Officer Zhao, it's you. What kind of magic potion did you feed my mother to make her push me into the fire pit?"
Zhao Xiangwan said calmly: "Aren't you the one who pushed you into the fire pit?"
Sheng Zaizhong sneered: "What did my mother say about me? Did she say that I killed my father?"
Gao Guangqiang said: "During the transportation, those who confess will be treated leniently, and those who resist will be treated severely."
Sheng Zaizhong turned to look at Gao Guangqiang: "Officer Gao, I didn't kill anyone, what do you want me to confess?"
Gao Guangqiang frowned: "On the afternoon of the 22nd, you drove into the villa, went upstairs to kill your father, and then asked your mother to take the blame, right?"
Sheng Zaizhong's expression was unexpectedly relaxed. He shrugged, "Really? My mom said that?"
Gao Guangqiang didn't expect that Sheng Zaizhong would still be stubborn at this time: "Your mother accused you of murdering Sheng Chenghao. Sheng Chenghao's blood was found in your bathroom and in your car. The evidence is irrefutable. Do you still want to quibble?"
Sheng Zaizhong suddenly smiled, revealing a beautiful little canine tooth.
"My mother accused me of murder? Police comrade, whoever is weaker is right? My mother looks like a weak person, but in fact... she only cares about herself. Didn't she say that Xiaotian killed my father before? Now she says that I killed him?"
Zhao Xiangwan's heartbeat suddenly quickened. Staring into Sheng Zaizhong's eyes, he suddenly realized something.
——Why do you have to bring your mother along when you go back to the villa?
He could have returned to the villa quietly, so why did he have to go to the hospital to bring his mother home while she was still in hospital?
Could it be that he had already planned to let Xie Xianyun take the blame?
Amid Zhao Xiangwan's doubts, Sheng Zaizhong's smile became even brighter.
"I'm afraid you don't know my mother very well. Just think about it, she married my father while pregnant with me and kept it a secret from my father for so many years, and my father didn't divorce her. How amazing is she?"
"My dad did beat her, but so what? Even though he beat her like that, she still lived. My dad's business grew bigger and bigger, and countless beautiful women came after him, but she has always been firmly seated in the position of Madam Sheng, and no one can shake her. She has one face in front of people and another behind their backs. Don't be fooled by her weak appearance."
"She said I killed my dad? Where's the evidence? What did she say that made you believe her?"
If Zhao Xiangwan could hear Xie Xianyun's inner voice, he would probably be confused by Sheng Zaizhong's words.
Gao Guangqiang's eyebrows wrinkled more and more tightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Just explain yourself, don't talk about these nonsense. We police officers investigate cases, we present facts and evidence."
Sheng Zaizhong adjusted his sitting posture, turned his neck, and then began to speak.
"Actually, my mom killed my dad."
Under the astonished gazes of all the police officers, Sheng Zaizhong began to speak slowly. It was clear that everyone could understand every word he said, but when these words were combined into sentences, everyone felt a chill in their hearts - this boy was so cruel!
"On the afternoon of the 22nd, I went to the hospital to visit my mother and told her that my father had scolded me. When my mother heard that my father had scolded me for not being worthy of being his son, she was so angry that she was shaking all over. She urged me to take her home, saying that she wanted to reason with my father. I couldn't persuade her, so I had to take her home."
"When we got to the villa, she rushed straight up to the second floor, and I was waiting downstairs."
"I heard her arguing with my father. It was a very fierce argument, and she mentioned my background. I then realized that I was not my father's biological son, and I felt very lost."
"After about ten minutes, the quarrel suddenly stopped. A little later, my mother came down from the building with the trophy in her hand. Her face and clothes were covered in blood. After she came down, she hugged me and cried, saying that she had accidentally beaten my father to death and was very scared."
"I was a little scared too. After she calmed down, I went upstairs to check and found my father lying motionless on the floor. Then I found that I was covered in blood, so I went to the room to take a shower, changed my clothes, and then went downstairs."
At this point, Sheng Zaizhong looked up at Gao Guangqiang and said, "You just said that there was my father's blood in my bathroom? That was my mother's blood that I accidentally left on me while taking a shower. As for the bloodstains on the car, that's easier to explain. I took my mother back to the hospital and took the trophy with me. It's normal that there was blood on the car."
Zhao Xiangwan narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking quickly about countermeasures.
Sheng Zaizhong continued, "On the way back to the hospital, my mother said that Xiaotian was honest and that as long as she pretended to be pitiful, Xiaotian would definitely take the blame for her. She asked me to choose the right words and not let the news leak out. I actually felt sorry for Xiaotian, but... she was my mother. Besides, Xiaotian was a minor, so if he took the blame, he would not be sentenced to death, right? So I agreed."
At this point, Sheng Zaizhong raised his lips and said, "But I also have a plan. I originally wanted to send my mother abroad in a few days, and then when Xiaotian surrenders himself and the procuratorate prosecutes and the court hears the case, I will submit a piece of evidence to prove that my mother committed the murder, and then Xiaotian can be acquitted. Now that my mother has turned back and accused me of patricide, I can only hand over this piece of evidence in advance."
Gao Guangqiang coughed and asked, "Where's the evidence?"
Sheng Zaizhong leaned back in his chair and said calmly, "After my mother killed someone, she gave me the bloody clothes on her body and asked me to help her throw them away. However, I didn't throw them away. I collected them and put them in the drawer of my office. You can go and get them."
Blood-stained clothes! Xie Xianyun's blood-stained clothes were actually preserved in the container.
The interrogation was interrupted.
After leaving the interrogation room, Gao Guangqiang coldly ordered his men to fetch new evidence.
After the bloodstained clothes were obtained, blood samples were taken for testing and the serious crime team analyzed the blood stains on the clothes.
Seeing the blood-stained shirt, Zhao Xiangwan breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhu Feipeng slammed the table and said, "This grandson is really not a good guy! His mother was only thinking about taking the blame for him, but he was scheming and kept the bloody shirt."
Zhu Kang laughed: "He failed to gain anything by stealing the chicken, this bastard knows nothing. Does he think that as long as there is blood, it can prove that Xie Xianyun committed murder?"
Huang Yuande also laughed: "When we were in school, our teacher explained in class that there are four types of bloodstains at crime scenes: dripping bloodstains, projectile bloodstains, impact bloodstains and contact bloodstains. The bloodstains on this bloody shirt are obviously contact bloodstains, and are definitely not projectile bloodstains caused by hitting Sheng Chenghao on the head with a heavy object."
Zhao Xiangwan approached the bloody shirt and pointed at two different marks: "The one on the back is obviously a contact transfer bloodstain, which should be caused by the blood on Sheng Zaizhong's hands. The one near the lower abdomen is a contact wiping bloodstain, which should be caused by the blood on Xie Xianyun's face being stained by Sheng Zaizhong when he was holding her. The edges are blurred and misty."
Gao Guangqiang looked at these professionally trained criminal detectives and felt a strong sense of pride in his heart: "It seems that reading more books is useful." With this group of young criminal police who understand theory and dare to put it into practice, the public security force will become stronger and stronger, and the future will be bright.
There is no need to wait for the DNA test results; the serious crime squad is reviewing the case.
The detectives held up the bloody shirt and gave Sheng Zaizhong a criminal investigation technical analysis class on bloodstain traceology on the spot.
Sheng Zaizhong was stunned and didn't know where he was for a moment.
The pain of having his IQ crushed made Sheng Zaizhong's likable face no longer likable.
The veins in his neck were exposed, and he shouted, "Shut up, shut up!"
Zhu Feipeng originally wanted to show off, but seeing that he was emotional, he was too lazy to mock him anymore. He put away the bloody clothes, sat at the table, and snorted.
This guy thought he was smart, but in the end his intelligence was backfired.
The blood-stained shirt on his body was destroyed during the burial, but he kept it.
This blood-stained shirt successfully proved Xie Xianyun's confession.
——There were only two people in the villa at that time, Xie Xianyun and Sheng Zaizhong. Where did the contact bloodstains on Xie Xianyun come from? It could only have come from Sheng Zaizhong. Where did the bloodstains on Sheng Zaizhong come from? It could only have come from Sheng Chenghao.
Sheng Zaizhong's face turned pale and his lips were tightly pursed, but his heart was churning.
[Do I have to plead guilty? I worked so hard for the company, but Sheng Chenghao never gave me any recognition. He only scolded me, criticized me, and rejected me. I have my own self-esteem. I am also a person! ]
[Does it mean that because I am not his biological son, I am not worthy of the surname Sheng? Sheng Chenghao sent Xiaotian to study computer science and taught him programming. Is this because he intends for Xiaotian to take over in the future? When Xiaotian graduates from university, he will definitely hand over the company to him. What about me? Am I working so hard just to make things easier for Xiaotian? ]
[It was a good plan. I deliberately angered Sheng Chenghao and took the opportunity to kill him. I acted pitiful in front of my mother, and she would definitely be willing to take the blame. Then I would go back to the hospital with my mother. When Xiaotian saw how his mother was, the little fool would definitely jump out and turn himself in. Xiaotian went to jail, Sheng Chenghao died, and this company was mine! ]
Hearing this, Zhao Xiangwan became furious.
You are not worthy of being a human being!
What is jealousy? What is unwillingness? It is just to cover up one's own greed.
Zhao Xiangwan spoke, her eyes were sharp, her voice was cold and hard, and she looked like a sharp sword, ready to chop open Sheng Zaizhong's selfish and shameless heart.
"Sheng Zaizhong, when did you know that you were not Sheng Chenghao's biological son?"
Once opened, the most secret corner of the container is revealed.
Zhu Feipeng and Liu Liangju looked at each other and secretly gave a thumbs up: Junior sister's method of removing scars is becoming more direct and more skillful.
Sheng Zaizhong suddenly raised his head and looked straight at Zhao Xiangwan.
Zhao Xiangwan said: "One year ago, two years ago, three years ago, it was still..."
While observing Sheng Zaizhong's reaction, Zhao Xiangwan said, "Very good, it seems that you knew it a year ago. After knowing it, what did you think? Did you thank Sheng Chenghao for raising you for more than 20 years, or did you let your jealousy run rampant?"
Still no words were spoken.
Zhao Xiangwan didn't care whether he spoke or not: "You are jealous, right? Before you didn't know your life experience, you could still deceive yourself. Although Sheng Chenghao likes his younger brother more, he loves his son the most. There is nothing he can do. Who told Xiaotian to be more like his father and better at studying than you? But after knowing your life experience, your heart collapsed, right?"
Sheng Zaizhong narrowed his eyes and gritted his teeth, as if he wanted to swallow Zhao Xiangwan in one gulp.
Zhao Xiangwan had faced enemies more ferocious than him, so why would he be afraid of him? Zhao Xiangwan was not afraid at all, and looked straight at him.
Two gazes, one good and one evil, met, and the air was filled with the smell of fire and gunpowder.
Zhao Xiangwan said coldly: "You are devastated? You are not Sheng Chenghao's blood, so you are not as good as Xiaotian, so you are only worthy of working in the company. When Xiaotian grows up, this company, the Sheng family's industry, and all the family property will be passed on to Sheng Zaitian, and you... will have nothing. If Xiaotian still recognizes you as his brother, maybe you can get a job in the company. If Xiaotian knows the truth, I'm afraid you will have no place in Haotian Group."
Zhao Xiangwan's words were like sharp knives, piercing into Sheng Zaitian's heart, and every word of the knife drew blood.
"Haotian Group, the Hao in Sheng Chenghao, the Tian in Sheng Zaitian, do you have a place in Sheng Zaitian?"
