Chapter 439 Mr. Xie passed away
He Tingchen and Lin Rushuang only found out from the police later that it was Eli who called the police, otherwise the police would not have been able to rush there in such a short time.
Several people have already boarded the plane back to Yuncheng, and Lin Rushang thanked Eli again.
"Dr. Eli, thank you so much this time, but how did you know we were kidnapped?"
Eli's complexion looked much better than the previous two days, probably because he went out and saw the sunlight. Lin Rushang admired him for one thing.
A normal person’s body may not be able to withstand not going out and not seeing the sun for a month, but Eli was able to stay at home for so many years and stay in the house all day long.
But apart from his psychological problems, he has no physical problems at all.
Eli just smiled calmly.
"There are surveillance cameras within 500 meters of our house. Of course, it's not to protect you, but because there used to be cyberbullying, and there would be a lot of reporters squatting outside the door. Although they are gone now, it's too troublesome to remove them, so we just don't bother."
"As soon as you were taken away, our dog probably heard something and started barking. I was more careful and checked the surveillance footage. I noticed that the expressions of those people when they were talking to you seemed a little strange."
After hearing this, Lin Rushang breathed a sigh of relief.
"Dr. Eli, I'm so grateful for your consideration. If it weren't for you..."
"It's okay. We can be considered to have accomplished each other. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't even think about leaving my current low-energy life."
The moment Eli stepped out of the door, he felt an unprecedented brightness. The sunlight shining on him dispelled a lot of darkness in his body.
Hearing this, Lin Rushuang was genuinely happy for him. "That's great! As long as you feel it's okay, Dr. Eli, one mistake can't define your life. There are many more possibilities in your life. Don't let yourself get trapped."
Lin Rushuang's words made Eli feel as if the clouds had cleared and the sky was bright.
The plane landed in Yuncheng.
As soon as he got off the plane, He Tingchen received a call. Lin Rushang didn't hear clearly what the other party said, but she could clearly feel that He Tingchen's face was not looking good.
After hanging up the phone, the sinister look on He Tingchen's face still remained, and she walked forward.
"What happened? Is it Yang Xin..."
"It had nothing to do with Yang Xin. It was the old man of the Xie family. Upon learning that Xie Hongzu had been arrested and was likely to be sentenced, his blood pressure suddenly shot up and he suffered a cerebral infarction. He was rushed to the hospital but died despite failed attempts to save him."
Lin Rushuang's face also darkened.
A Yao was afraid that Lin Rushuang would feel burdened, so he hurriedly said, "Sister Rushuang, this has nothing to do with you. You don't have to feel any psychological burden. If Xie Hongzu hadn't committed suicide and insisted on kidnapping people, he wouldn't have ended up like this."
Lin Rushang raised her hand to wipe her face and calmed herself down.
"Ayao, take Dr. Eli to the hotel and get him settled first. I'll bring Yang Xin over tomorrow. Mr. He and I are going to the Xie family now."
Regardless, they still need to go and take a look.
A Yao frowned and disagreed with Lin Rushuang's idea.
"I think it's better not to go. The Xie family must hate you to the core now. If you go now, won't you be walking into a trap?"
He could imagine the chaotic situation.
"It's okay, just do as I say."
A Yao had never disobeyed Lin Rushuang's orders, and this time was no exception.
Before he took Eli away, he specifically asked He Tingchen for help.
"Mr. He, please take good care of Sister Rushuang."
"rest assured."
He Tingchen took Lin Rushuang's hand and took Qin Yang into another car.
The old house of the Xie family was filled with a heavy feeling at this moment. The flickering candlelight reflected the portrait of Mr. Xie. Lin Rushang changed into a plain black long dress on the way, and stood at the door of the mourning hall with He Tingchen, who was also wearing a dark suit, holding a white chrysanthemum.
When the people inside saw Lin Rushuang and He Tingchen clearly, their faces changed.
"How dare you come here!" The man was Mr. Xie's nephew, Xie Mingyuan. His eyes were red and his voice was hoarse with anger. "The old man was pissed off to death by you. If you hadn't sent Hongzu to prison, how could he have died of a sudden heart attack?"
The relatives of the Xie family who were around immediately gathered around, and their accusations and insults were like ice spikes.
"You, the accomplice of a murderer, still have the nerve to come and offer condolences? Get out! We in the Xie family don't welcome you. You're the one who murdered the old man, and you still dare to act so pretentiously."
Lin Rushang calmly placed the chrysanthemum on the altar next to her, bowed deeply to Mr. Xie's portrait, and stood up with a calm voice.
"We understand your grief, but we also hope you won't be so indiscriminate. Xie Hongzu has committed kidnapping and intentional assault twice. Your father mobilized countless connections to avoid imprisonment the previous time. Xie Hongzu even bribed Liang Shuying, a victim like me, to falsify her confession."
"We didn't care about these things. Otherwise, do you think Xie Hongzu would have the chance to go abroad and kidnap us a second time?"
He Tingchen took a step forward, his sinister eyes swept over the excited crowd, his voice steady and powerful.
"The police notice is here. You can check it if you have any questions. Xie Hongzu is suspected of kidnapping, intentional injury, and instigating them to tamper with their confessions. He is being punished for multiple crimes. The evidence is irrefutable. This is beyond our control."
Someone in the crowd sneered: "Who knows if this is a trap set by you. Hongzu has been honest since he was a child. How could he do such a thing?"
When Lin Rushang heard this, she almost couldn't help laughing out loud.
Is the ability of these people to speak freely inherited from the Xie family?
Is Xie Hongzu honest?
Lin Rushuang took out the surveillance screenshots of her kidnapping and the hospital's diagnosis report.
"Look for yourselves. The last time he kidnapped me, he threatened me with a knife. This time abroad, he not only used baseball bats and steel pipes to incite thugs, but also attempted sexual assault. There's video footage and witnesses. Does that mean your Xie Hongzu is still a six-year-old child and has to listen to others' instigation?"
The photos and evidence were clearly placed in front of them, which made the relatives who were indignant just now gradually fall silent. Xie Mingyuan looked at the hideous face of Xie Hongzu in the photo, and his face turned pale and blue.
"We never intended to do anything to him, but Xie Hongzu has repeatedly provoked us. If it were you, would you allow someone to threaten your life countless times?"
"I'm afraid everyone here will do the same thing as me. The reason Xie Hongzu is in this situation is all because of your connivance and your protection. Wasn't it your repeated connivance that really drove the old man to death?"
