Chapter 029 Jinjiang First Release

In the sixth class of the fifth grade of Taoyuan Primary School, the little boy who had just finished a double-team with Bai Mian yesterday walked onto the podium. Due to the strong promotion of his head teacher, he has now become a celebrity in the class. His classmates call him "matchmaker brother" when they see him. This is not a big deal. What concerns him most is that yesterday his head teacher, Mr. Zheng, assigned him the task of writing an essay and asked him to read his essay on stage today.

The little boy stood on the podium, facing the whole class, took out a folded piece of paper from his pocket, and read out a beginning: "Hello, classmates, the topic of my composition today is "Turning Danger into Safety". This composition is adapted from my personal experience..."

At this point, the little boy couldn't go on. He looked at the draft paper in front of him, not knowing how to continue. It turned out that he didn't write an essay yesterday. He just hurriedly tore off a piece of draft paper from his math notebook before class to get the job done.

Teacher Zheng looked at the little boy's expression and realized something was wrong. He walked up to check the paper in the boy's hand. Just when the boy was about to be exposed, the door of the classroom was suddenly opened, and the principal walked in with a group of police officers.

Xiao Chen from the Qingshui Town Police Station showed his ID and said to Zheng Shuyuan:

"Hello, Zheng Shuyuan, right? We now suspect that you are related to a murder case thirty years ago. Please go back with us and cooperate with the investigation."

As soon as Zheng Shuyuan saw the police uniforms on these people, he began to feel frightened. When he heard that they were investigating a case from thirty years ago, he immediately realized that he had been found out to have murdered Tang Li, and the punishment that had been delayed for thirty years had finally come.

The usually stern head teacher was now trembling on the stage. The principal noticed that his pants had changed color, and upon closer inspection, he found that he had actually peed his pants in public.

Zheng Shuyuan instinctively wanted to escape but was pinned to the ground by a group of policemen. Xiao Chen handcuffed him, and two policemen held Zheng Shuyuan from behind and escorted him out of the classroom.

Zheng Shuyuan took a last look back at the podium where he had stood for half his life. He knew that he would never come back after this departure.

After they left, the little boy holding the draft paper immediately slipped back to his seat. He sat down and breathed a sigh of relief, feeling very lucky in his heart. This time he had really "turned the danger into safety."

"Is there any progress? How's the investigation going?" asked Lame Brother.

Weng Xuhua hung up the phone and announced to everyone: "The investigation results are out. Zheng Shuyuan is the real murderer who killed Tang Li!"

After hearing the news, the people in the store cheered. After the cheers, several people sat together and Weng Xuhua told everyone the details of the police investigation:

"The police conducted a paternity test on the skeleton and the Tang family members, and the results showed that the skeleton was that of Tang Li who died that year."

"The hyoid bone and thyroid cartilage of this skeleton are both broken, which means that the cause of her death was neither drowning nor falling, but suffocation by being strangled by the neck."

"The most powerful evidence is Tang Li's teeth. She bit Zheng Shuyuan hard during the fight, and Zheng Shuyuan's DNA was found in her teeth."

"After the police took Zheng Shuyuan back to the police station, they found an old wound on his arm. The shape of the wound matched the shape of Tang Li's teeth. This means that Zheng Shuyuan was the last person who had a conflict with Tang Li before her death, and he was also the most likely murderer."

"Under police interrogation, Zheng Shuyuan confessed everything that happened back then, and he also gave his parents away. Now the police say his parents have committed the crimes of harboring a criminal and insulting a corpse, and they are investigating both together."

After Weng Xuhua finished speaking, he looked at his wife and daughter. The eyes of the three were filled with relief and joy. The haze that had weighed on this family for thirty years finally dissipated, and their life truly began.

Regarding this case, there are still some procedures that require the cooperation of the Weng family. Weng Xuhua and Gao Jin took Yin Yin to the police station, and left the store to Bai Mian and Que Ge to look after.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Lame Brother started the lottery machine. This time, the lottery machine stopped halfway through, and only a small ball rolled down alone.

"Really?" Lame Brother patted the lottery machine. "Brother, what's wrong with you? I modified it myself, and it broke after just a few days of use. You really don't give me face!"

There was a long queue of fans who wanted to have their fortunes told. When they saw the machine was broken, they all got agitated. Lame Brother had to calm everyone down: "It's okay, it's okay. It doesn't count this time. Let me restart the machine and try again!"

"Wait -" Bai Mian called out to Lame Brother, "Let's take this time as the standard."

"Ah?" Lame Brother didn't understand.

Bai Mian: "The machine is not broken. It is destined that I will only have one fate master today. Maybe this fate master will bring a big case. Let's take this time as the standard."

Lame Brother had no choice but to listen to Bai Mian. He picked up the ball, looked at the number on it, and shouted loudly: "Number 73, who is number 73?"

A man and a woman raised their hands high, the others dispersed in disappointment, and the couple walked into the store.

The man held the woman's waist, carefully protecting her belly. The woman walked slowly to the table. Although the woman's waist was very thin, it could be seen from her posture that she was a pregnant woman.

Sure enough, the man started talking as soon as he sat down:

"Master, hello, my name is Shi Xingye, this is my wife Li Mo, we have been married for three years, and my wife recently found out she is pregnant, we would like to ask..."

"Hey, wait a minute," Crip interrupted the man, "You guys don't want to check gender, do you? This is not allowed, it's illegal!"

The man waved his hands and laughed, "Look at what you are thinking. It's a different era now. How could we have such thoughts? For the two of us, no matter whether the child is a boy or a girl, as long as the child is safe and sound, that's why we came to Qingshui Town to find Master Bai. We just want to ask what the fate of this child is in the future. Will there be any great disasters?"

After listening to this, Bai Mian put his hand on Li Mo's wrist and quietly felt her pulse.

After a moment, Bai Mian raised his head alertly:

"Tell me, where did this child come from?"
