Chapter 257: Raising an Army to Punish
With a "whoosh", the car arrived at the police station unknowingly.
The two of them went straight to the forensic department.
"Brother Corpse, you are here."
"Yes, what's the situation now?"
"One test tube, as you said, had no biological information at all. Luckily, the other one did detect the fetus's DNA, and it matched the male child in our criminal suspect database with a 99% paternity score. It was this man."
He handed a document to Qiu Shanhe. When he opened it, he saw the three words "Zhang Fanxi" written on it, with a large photo of him next to it.
Qiu Shanhe: "What crime did this man commit?"
"We received a report that someone was seen burying a body in an open field. When we rushed over, we saw him digging a hole, but we didn't find any body near him, only a severed hand."
"And what happened next? He's in jail now? That doesn't make sense."
"No, he's Mr. Jin's man."
"Even if they are Mr. Jin's men, you can't just let them go. Human life is at stake."
"There's nothing we can do. A higher-ranking official can crush someone to death. Later, we found the woman with the severed hand in the hospital. She said she chopped it off herself. What else can we do?"
"Nonsense, he was simply chopped off and dared not reveal the mastermind."
"Yes, but luckily we left behind Zhang Fanxi's biological information. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to find out."
Qiu Shanhe: "Let's go to the Sky Blue Casino to meet this Mr. Jin's people."
Duanmu Jin pulled him to the back stairs in the corridor.
Qiu Shanhe: "Why don't you leave? Are you afraid of that Mr. Jin too?"
Duanmu Jin: "I'm not afraid of him, I'm afraid of my dad. Mr. Jin is my dad's business partner. If I rashly touch Mr. Jin's people, my dad might get angry. So I have to ask my dad's opinion."
"You are so useless, aren't you? The one who died was your second mother."
Duanmu Jin: "I know, but I still have to tell my dad about this first. After all, it was his dead wife who was cheated on, and he is the biggest victim. He should know about this."
Qiu Shanhe: "Oh, why are you guys so nagging? Then just go!"
Duanmu Jin stood in Duanmu Lin's study for a long time and couldn't say a word to his father.
Duanmu Lin: "If you have something to say, please tell me now. If you don't, don't stay in my room. If you want to be a door god, stand outside. You should know that I don't really want to see you."
Duanmu Jin thought for a long time before saying, "Father, there is new information about Second Mother's case."
Duanmu Lin: "Oh? It took you so long to find out anything new? I thought you caught the real culprit. Was it that new, out-of-date police officer who helped you find out? I'm not saying I look down on you, but you're just a hopeless person who will accomplish nothing without the support of your family."
Duanmu Jin clenched his fists and said, "Father, why do you hate me so much? Did I do something to make you angry? Otherwise, why would you say such words to humiliate me as soon as you see me?"
Duanmu Lin thought to himself, "Ask your biological father. I only have one son, and he gave me his life. Now his life or death is unknown. How can I feel good when I see you?"
Duanmu Lin: "Forget it, you might not understand even if I tell you, so why don't you tell me what new information you found?"
Duanmu Jin: "Second mother was pregnant before she died, but you are not the father of the child."
Duanmu Lin: "And then?"
Duanmu Jin: "Are you not angry?"
"Why should I be angry? I don't care anyway. Just keep talking."
"We found in her phone messages that she was using the child to threaten her lover, forcing him to divorce and be with her. So we have reason to suspect that the child's father is the murderer of the second mother."
Duanmu Jin handed the message on his phone to Duanmu Lin. He got a headache when he saw the dense Burmese text.
"Can you find out who owns that phone number?"
"I can't find it. That's a mobile phone number without real-name registration."
"Surely we should find out who the father of that child is?"
"I found out it's Zhang Fanxi."
When he heard it was Zhang Fanxi, Duanmu Lin was stunned.
"Are you sure you didn't make a mistake?"
"No, it's definitely him."
Duanmu Lin hesitated for a moment.
"Don't investigate him. Even if he is the father of the child, it doesn't mean that he killed Ji Jihua."
"Father, why are you so sure?"
"I've seen that Zhang Fanxi at the Sky Blue Casino. He's Chinese and can't even speak Burmese, so how could he write Burmese? I knew it wasn't him just by looking at the person on the phone."
"But the child in Second Mother's belly..."
"That doesn't really mean anything. It's probably just a one-night stand. Just teach him a lesson."
"Okay, I know what to do."
In the evening, Duanmu Jin drove to the Tianlan Casino with a group of people.
Suddenly, someone pointed out of the car window at a man walking out of the Sky Blue Casino and said, "That's him."
Duanmu Jin: "Everyone get out of the car."
With a "whoosh", everyone rushed out of the car and forced Zhang Fanxi, who had just come out of the Tianlan Casino, into a dead end in the back alley.
Zhang Fanxi: "Brothers, I am Mr. Jin's man. Did you arrest the wrong person?"
Duanmu Jin walked up to him from the crowd and said, "That's right, I'm here to teach you a lesson."
He handed Ji Jihua's photo to Duanmu and said, "Do you know the woman in the photo?"
Zhang Fanxi: "Master Duanmu, we are acquainted. I really don't recognize the woman in the photo."
Duanmu Jin kicked him in the stomach, and he immediately squatted on the ground holding his stomach and groaning in pain.
Duanmu Jin also squatted down and held his chin with his hand to force him to look at him.
"You still don't admit it? Then what about the baby in her belly?"
Zhang Fanxi opened his hand and said in panic, "She's pregnant? Is it mine?"
"Yes, it's yours."
"Master Duanmu, I'm sorry. I really respect your father and had no intention of bringing shame to your family. I was drunk at the time and didn't know who she was... so I did it in the bathroom... Really, I swear it was just that one time. I never contacted her again. So, how is she now? How do you want to handle this matter?"
"How else can we deal with the death of a person?"
"What? She's dead? How?"
"This is none of your business. It's our family affair, and we'll handle it ourselves. You're lucky that my second mother is dead and you're Mr. Jin's man, so the matter is settled. Otherwise..."
He stuck a knife into Fanxi's crotch and said, "I will make sure you have no descendants."
Only after watching them walk away did Fan Xi dare to stand up slowly.
When Duanmu Lin returned home, Qiu Shanhe asked, "So, have you finished teaching Zhang Fanxi a lesson?"
"Yes, we are angry, but the clues are broken again. Now we don't know where to start investigating."
"It's okay. Doesn't your second mother have a good lover? Now we can focus on investigating him."
"Do you have any more clues?"
"Will clues come to us on their own? We have to investigate. By the way, how is your relationship with Second Mother?"
"What else can I do? Her relationship with my mother is like fire and water. How can she be on good terms with me?"
