At 3 p.m., Song Anmin told Mao Cheng to keep an eye on the shop and not leave for a moment. He was going to the hospital to see his uncle, who should be awake by now and would be back in an hour at most.
Song Anmin quickly arrived at the hospital.
Xu Songyuan and Xu Guiying's hospital rooms were on the same floor.
Xu Guiying is still resting in bed and trying not to get up. Song Xinfu and Grandpa Song have gone to Xu Songyuan's ward. He has woken up, but he is still weak.
Peng Yuan is inside giving a statement.
Xu Songyuan was knocked unconscious last night, and he didn't remember much after that. He was thrown on the ground and only saw figures walking around.
"Were they male or female? Can you recall how many people there were?"
Xu Songyuan: "They were all wearing black shoes, one of them had heels, and there was a woman among them, but I don't know if it was one man or two."
Xu Songyuan was weakened by blood loss from his head and soon fainted.
Peng Yuan then asked, "Has anything strange happened recently? Or have you seen anyone?"
Xu Songyuan shook his head slightly. "No, it was about poisoning before."
Peng Yuan nodded and stood up. "Then you should get some rest. If there are any further developments, we may need your assistance in the investigation."
Xu Songyuan suddenly called out to Peng Yuan, "Officer Peng, wait a minute!"
Peng Yuan turned around and asked suspiciously, "Did you remember anything else?"
Xu Songyuan squinted slightly, "I remember now, the man who beat me and my sister that night..."
At first, a man rushed out of the alley, and then a man got out of the van.
Xu Songyuan felt that the latter looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.
Peng Yuan noted down new information: "Could it be a customer from your shop?"
Xu Songyuan himself wasn't sure. "There are a lot of customers in the store every day. Usually, I only remember customers because of their distinctive features, but that person... I don't think it looks like him. It's like I've seen him before in real life..."
Peng Yuan: "Okay, then think about it some more. If you come up with anything later, let us know as soon as possible."
Xu Songyuan nodded, but still asked with concern, "Officer Peng, this matter has nothing to do with me."
Peng Yuan nodded, "Don't worry, we will investigate and find out."
Just then, Song Anmin arrived at the ward, and Grandpa Song and Song Xinfu also came out of the ward.
"Dad, Grandpa, is Uncle alright?"
Song Xinfu: "There's no problem for now. Just like your mother, we still need to observe her. Go in and see your uncle."
Grandpa Song: "Little San, weren't you in the shop?"
"Grandpa, I came to take a look, I'll be back in a bit."
When Song Anmin saw his uncle's head wrapped in bandages on the bed, he was stunned. "Uncle, are you alright?"
Xu Songyuan glanced at the third brother, "It's alright, how's the shop?"
Song Anmin told the truth, "Yin Cui even brought people here at noon. I scolded them and they left. She's really something else. Uncle, I'm sure this matter is definitely related to the Tan family. Maybe it was done by someone they know."
Xu Songyuan didn't say anything, and told Song Anmin to go back to the shop and keep watch.
Xu Songyuan's head required more than ten stitches, and his hair was shaved off.
Song Anmin felt a pang of sadness when he looked at his uncle.
well.
Damn it.
"Uncle, I'm leaving now."
Xu Songyuan waved his hand.
Song Anmin went to his mother's hospital room again and glanced at Xu Guiying.
Xu Guiying was talking to the old woman diagonally opposite her, listening to the old woman rambling on about her unfilial sons. After listening, Xu Guiying glanced at Song Anmin sideways.
Song Anmin felt cold all over, shivered, and coughed lightly, "Mom... well, I'm going back to the shop now, I'm leaving, no need to see me off."
Song Xinfu: "I'm closing the door, you brat, who gave you that?"
Song Anmin touched his nose and chuckled awkwardly, "Dad, you're so funny, hehehe."
...
At 6 p.m., the autopsy results came out.
The forensic examination revealed that the fatal wound that killed Tan Rongguo was not caused by the kitchen knife in Xu Songyuan's hand, but rather by a heavy object striking the back of Tan Rongguo's head, causing a minor fracture of the skull and resulting in blood loss. The time of death was estimated to be 5 p.m. yesterday, when Xu Songyuan was still busy in the store.
The autopsy results completely cleared Xu Songyuan of suspicion.
Police also found used tissues under the bed in the house, which, after testing, turned out to be male semen, not Tan Rongguo's.
In this way, we can basically make a rough judgment.
The police did not disclose any more information to the Song family and Xu Songyuan, only telling them to continue to recover well and that compensation would be discussed after the murderer was found.
Although Peng Yuan didn't say it explicitly, Xu Guiying and Xu Songyuan could basically guess that it was related to Yin Cui.
Song Xinfu and his three and five brothers still have to go to work and school. Grandpa Song and Grandma Song come to the hospital to see them every day. Song Yun doesn't need to stay in the shop all the time, so she also comes to the hospital to visit the two patients in her spare time.
The colleagues from the purchasing department of the supply and marketing cooperative all came to visit Xu Guiying at the hospital.
Ding felt bad; if he hadn't suggested going to Phoenix Pavilion for dinner that night, this probably wouldn't have happened. Xu Guiying certainly couldn't let her boss feel 'guilty,' so she quickly explained that Ding had nothing to do with it. Luckily, Xu Guiying was there at the time; otherwise, Xu Songyuan alone would probably have been the victim!
Song Rongrong would come over every day after work. One time, she ran into Tan Ya downstairs in the hospital building and berated her from head to toe. Tan Ya seemed to know something and didn't retaliate. She turned and ran away.
Tan Rongguo was no good.
Yin Cui was the same.
Both husband and wife have a thieving streak, which makes Song Rongrong suspect that Tan Ya deliberately ate the poisoned food before. The police had only found that the case was related to Tan Rongguo and his group, but had not found any involvement of Tan Ya.
The poisoning case was investigated by the police station in Wang Ya's jurisdiction. Song Rongrong went directly to the police station to report Tan Ya's situation. Officer Zhao said that they had already investigated Tan Ya before and could not find anything, so Song Rongrong had no choice but to give up.
Five days after Xu Guiying and Xu Songyuan were hospitalized, the siblings were discharged.
Xu Guiying was ordered to rest at home for a month before returning to work at the supply and marketing cooperative. In any case, Xu Guiying was getting old and would be able to retire in a few years.
This happened so early in the year, and all the neighbors in Heping Lane came to the Song family to visit Xu Guiying.
Qian's relatives also came. Grandma Qian and her husband, Qian Mingyuan, had come to the city specifically to see what had happened to Xu Guiying.
Song Yangmin only learned about his mother's injury after returning home from the week he had a holiday.
Enraged, Song Yangmin went directly to the Tan family, demanding an explanation from them.
Although the police haven't closed the case yet, Tan Rongguo's parents and Tan Ya have basically guessed what happened. It's almost certain that Tan Rongguo saw Yin Cui cheating on him and then went to find Xu Songyuan as a scapegoat.
The Tan family knew they were in the wrong and didn't dare to say anything else to Song Yangmin. They just stubbornly insisted that the case had nothing to do with the Tan family until it was thoroughly investigated, and told Song Yangmin to stop talking nonsense!
Yin Cui herself denied it, crying and saying it had nothing to do with her; she had gone to the park the day before and knew nothing about Tan Rongguo. Tan Ya argued with Yin Cui about this many times, and Tan Rongguo's parents even fainted twice from the stress…
