The police were also stunned.
He originally thought he would have to use a lot of persuasion to get Kang Junxi to admit it honestly, but he didn't expect him to just blurt it out like that.
The police officer looked at Kang Joon-hee with a strange expression; it was the first time he had encountered such an obedient suspect.
Kang Junxi's face turned deathly pale. What was wrong with him? He clearly didn't want to say that!
Faced with the police officer's sharp gaze, Kang Junxi's psychological defenses completely collapsed. He panicked and hurriedly looked around. When he saw Meng Qingwan, his eyes lit up, and he cried out, "Senior Meng, please save me! Please save me!"
"I...I really didn't mean to. I didn't know that pushing her lightly would kill her..."
"I was so young back then! I didn't know any better! Senior Meng, please help me, please help me!"
Meng Qingwan had no patience to talk to him and politely said goodbye to the police: "He's in your hands now. My lawyer will contact you later. That's settled. Let's go home!"
Nan Yuanman responded cutely, took her hand, and skipped away with her from the private room.
Kang Junxi's vision went black, and he collapsed to the ground. He knew he was completely finished.
At the same time.
Inside a mahjong parlor in a county town of H city.
"bump!"
"I won!"
A middle-aged man wearing a short-sleeved shirt and jeans, with messy hair and a very decadent look, grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth, and reached out to his card-playing friends: "Come on, come on, give me the money!"
"Tsk, Lao Kang, your luck is absolutely amazing!" a fellow card player teased. "Didn't you say your son was going to transfer tens of thousands to you? You still care about our little bit of money?"
Kang Lihui swiftly snatched the money from their hands, licked his fingers, and counted the few dollars in cash: "What? Isn't a little money?"
"But Lao Kang, your son is quite filial, sending you so much money every month. What does he do outside?" another card player asked curiously.
"I didn't do anything special, I'm just a minor celebrity." Kang Lihui boasted casually, then habitually picked up his phone to check it, only to find that he hadn't received the transfer notification that usually appeared at this time.
He frowned and muttered under his breath, "You little brat, you're so slow at transferring money to me, you're asking for it."
The third card player, sitting some distance away from Kang Lihui, noticed the slight change in his expression and chuckled, "Are you bragging? Your son, someone like him, can become a star? And give you tens of thousands of yuan every month? Don't be ridiculous. I don't recall you ever raising your son for more than a few days, did you?"
The other two card players exchanged a glance, both clearly disbelieving.
They may be muddle-headed, but they're not stupid. They know perfectly well how Kang Lihui tricked his son.
"Don't be a sour grapes if you can't have it. You're just jealous of me!" Kang Lihui rolled his eyes, stood up, and said, "Fine, I'm not fighting anymore. You guys fight it out."
He needs to go back and call that brat to ask what's going on and why the money hasn't been transferred yet.
Could it be...?
Kang Lihui's face darkened. Did that little brat know that he hadn't gone looking for the old woman's body at all during this time?
Lost in thought, Kang Lihui couldn't resist going into a tavern and having a few drinks before staggering away with the bottles in his hand.
For some reason, the road that used to be just a few steps from home felt unusually long tonight, and the streetlights around me seemed much dimmer.
Suddenly, Kang Lihui heard the rustling sound of footsteps beside him, as if someone was slowly walking with bound feet.
A dark shadow flashed past his eyes, startling Kang Lihui and instantly sobering him up: "Who is it! Playing ghosts in the middle of the night! Are you crazy?!"
As Kang Lihui grumbled and looked up, what came into view was an old man, thin and hunched over, who had appeared in front of him at some unknown time.
Kang Lihui was immediately filled with anger and was about to start cursing when he suddenly saw the old man turn his head to look at him, revealing a face that he recognized very well.
Grandma Kang's face was deathly pale, but the corners of her mouth turned up in a wide smile. Her voice was hoarse as she murmured, "Ah Hui... I died such a terrible death..."
Kang Lihui: "!!"
Kang Lihui was terrified and retreated in panic, crying out, "Mom...ghost! A ghost!!"
Once he was completely sober, he took off running.
He had only run a few steps when the old man who had been behind him suddenly appeared in front of him, gradually closing the distance between them!
“Ahui…”
Kang Lihui immediately changed direction and ran, but no matter how many directions he changed, the old man always appeared in front of him, his dark eyes, now only showing pupils, staring at him eerily: "I died a terrible death..."
Kang Lihui was not a resolute person to begin with, and coupled with his guilty conscience, he immediately knelt down: "Mom! It wasn't me who killed you! It was Kangzi! Go find him! Don't come looking for me!"
Grandma Kang dragged her legs and slowly walked towards him, her eyeball, which had fallen out of its socket, dangling back and forth in front of him.
The horrifying scene terrified Kang Lihui so much that he wet himself and wished he could just faint.
Grandma Kang asked him, "So, you knew from the beginning that I was the one who killed him, Kangzai?"
Kang Lihui lay on the ground, not daring to look at her at all. He had originally wanted to lie, but her eyes, which were dangling in mid-air, suddenly turned and stared straight at him.
Kang Lihui's mind went blank for a moment, and his mouth stammered faster than his brain: "I...I know, I...I originally wanted to save you, but...but I don't know where Kangzi left you..."
Kang Lihui did leave after failing to get the money from Grandma Kang that day, but he was unwilling to give up. He encouraged Kang Junxi to go to her to ask for the money, thinking that he would swindle the money from him after Kang Junxi got it.
However, he was also afraid that Kang Junxi would not give him the money after receiving it, or that he would keep some for himself.
So he turned back that night.
He planned to wait until Grandma Kang fell asleep, then climb over the wall and steal from her with Kang Junxi. Unexpectedly, he happened to witness Kang Junxi carrying Grandma Kang into the mountains and abandoning her there...
Kang Lihui, for some inexplicable reason, didn't follow. Later, Kangzai, out of fear, called him and lied, saying that his grandmother had gone up the mountain to chop firewood and hadn't returned. He didn't expose him.
Later, he mentioned Grandma Kang to Kang Junxi once, and Kang Junxi scolded him in a fit of anger and transferred money to him, telling him to stop causing trouble in the future.
He tasted the sweetness, and then...
Kang Lihui banged his head against the wall repeatedly: "Mom, I'm a bastard, I'm not human, but I wasn't the one who killed you! Don't look for me! Go find Kangzi!"
Even though she had her suspicions, the moment they were confirmed, Grandma Kang was both disappointed and heartbroken: "None of you can escape."
As soon as she finished speaking, Grandma Kang's bloody and mangled appearance appeared before Kang Lihui's eyes, and she reached out and grabbed his neck with both hands.
"Oh my god!!" Kang Lihui screamed, his eyes rolled back, and he passed out, wetting his pants.
Grandma Kang: "..."
She disdainfully threw Kang Lihui on the ground, her blood-stained face returning to normal. She looked apologetically at a corner not far away: "I'm sorry, little fairy, I made you laugh."
Nan Yuanman, wearing pink princess shoes, walked out from the corner, shook her head, and looked at Grandma Kang with a hint of sympathy in her eyes.
This old lady is really pitiful.
My son is a bad person, and my grandson is a bad person too.
It's fortunate that she's a good person; if these two were grandfather's relatives, he probably would have put the greater good before family.
"Grandma, do you still have any obsessions?" the little dumpling asked softly.
That's all!
Grandma Kang said cheerfully, "Oh right, there's one last thing, little fairy, do you have any unlucky charms? Send this black-hearted bastard a dozen or a hundred unlucky charms, so he won't have too much fun!"
“Yes.” Nan Yuanman did as instructed, took out a stack of bad luck talismans, circled around the unconscious Kang Lihui, and the talismans in his hand disappeared into his body one by one.
Nanmanyuan clapped his hands: "Alright!"
These hundred or so unlucky charms will only be removed after Kang Lihui dies.
Grandma Kang waved her hand casually: "Alright, I'm leaving now. Little fairy, remember to dig up my dowry and take it with you, don't let them get it!"
Nan Yuanman nodded obediently and waved her paw: "Goodbye, Grandma Kang."
The gates of hell slowly appeared. Grandma Kang said goodbye and turned to leave.
After seeing Grandma Kang off, Nan Yuanman clearly felt that several more strands of merit had accumulated in his spiritual center.
Nan Yuanman stood on tiptoe with satisfaction. Sure enough, helping good people brings more merit!
So what's next...?
"Come on, little grass strong, let's go treasure hunting!" Nan Yuanman pulled out a small shovel and excitedly headed towards the address Grandma Kang had given him.
That's right, she sneaked out through the Ghost Path this time to dig for treasure!
After all, it's a treasure hunt! What child could resist the temptation of a treasure hunt?
Taking advantage of the quiet of the night, Nan Yuanman climbed over the wall into Grandma Kang's old courtyard, pasted a silence talisman, and began digging with two spirits and two ghosts by the stove.
As Zhou Jingchuan dug, his shovel brushed against something, and he exclaimed joyfully, "Perfect! I've found it!"
Nanman ran over excitedly: "Where is it? Where is it? Let me see!"
Zhou Jingchuan used his ghostly power to take out what he had dug up; it was an iron box wrapped in oilcloth.
Nan Yuanman carefully unwrapped the oilcloth covering the box and opened it. The first thing that caught her eye was a small white porcelain figure.
The little figure had two words engraved on it—"Lord of Heaven".
