Chapter 222 Suspecting a Substitute
When Han Jianye and others arrived at Pang Fengdeng's hometown, only an old father, Pang Qiushu, was at home. He was sitting at the gate smoking.
Pang Qiushu was very surprised by the arrival of Han Jianye and others, and was extremely disappointed with Pang Fengdeng they mentioned.
"That unfilial son has said for more than a decade that he will never step foot into my house again, saying that my family is poor and I can't help him. He also wanted to beat me. We have severed our relationship." Pang Qiushu's eyes always turn red when he thinks of this incident. He took a deep puff of his cigarette and continued: "Comrade police, if my son breaks the law, I don't have the money to hire a lawyer for him. I am already heartbroken by him. You can do whatever you want. I can't control it."
Ye Bai asked Pang Fengdeng, "Excuse me, do Zhu Qingnan and Pang Fengdeng really look alike?"
Pang Qiushu nodded, "Like, they are the same height and have the same build. I sometimes make mistakes."
Ye Bai continued to ask, "Does Pang Fengdeng have any birthmarks or scars on his body?"
"My son doesn't have it, but his cousin does. I heard that he was naughty when he was in school, and he fell off a tree and his left calf was pierced by the tree trunk. When he grew up, the wound became concave and the scar is still there."
Han Jianye continued to ask, "Do you remember the exact time? When did Pang Fengdeng say he couldn't come back? Did his personality change suddenly?"
After being reminded by Ye Bai, Pang Qiushu suddenly realized, "Yes, I heard that a lot of police came that day. Didn't Zhu Qingnan commit a crime and run away? Many police came to search our house, and they were afraid that we would help hide people, so they almost arrested my son. Later, they checked his ID card and he was fine. But he changed a lot that year. He didn't talk much, and he had a bad temper. After staying at home for a few months, he wanted to run away from home and said he would not come back."
After saying that, he took another trembling puff of his cigarette, "I can't understand why he suddenly changed. He doesn't work anymore and he even despises the poor and loves the rich. I don't even recognize him anymore."
Ye Bai continued to ask: "Do the voices of these cousins sound similar?"
Pang Qiushu shook his head, "No, they look alike, except in appearance."
Qi Xiaolei was very confused, "When Pang Fengdeng's personality changed, didn't you hear a difference in his voice?"
"He went for tonsil surgery and said that his throat was injured and his voice changed. Is there a problem with this?" Pang Qiushu looked puzzled.
Han Jianye and the others looked at each other. They felt that the information provided by Pang Qiushu was very important.
After that, I stopped asking questions.
Before leaving, a DNA sample of Pang Qiushu was taken back.
Qi Xiaolei spoke first: "Hearing what Pang Qiushu said, Pang Fengdeng is indeed very suspicious now. He is an honest farmer who has never been to school. His son suddenly changed his temperament and complained about the bad environment at home. He did not think about it in a deeper way, which is understandable. After all, his son suddenly ran away from home and did not come back. His emotions were affected, and he did not even think that the Pang Fengdeng in front of him might be played by Zhu Qingnan. His purpose was to quickly get rid of Pang Fengdeng's burdensome home and his father who needed old-age care, so that he could hide outside and not come back."
"Yes." Han Jianye agreed with Qi Xiaolei's analysis, then picked up his phone and started calling Si Yue, "Si Yue, we are on our way back, try to see if you can get Pang Fengdeng's biological samples back for testing as soon as possible, yes, that's right."
Ye Bai sat aside quietly without saying a word, his eyes slightly gloomy, as if he was thinking about something.
Han Jianye hung up the phone and asked him, "What's wrong? If you have any ideas, just bring them up directly."
Ye Bai raised his head and looked at Han Jianye, "Let's have the father and son do a paternity test first and see the results first."
"Um."
Han Jianye knew that Ye Bai must have his own ideas, but he needed to see and verify them before he could draw any conclusions.
