Chapter 131: The truth is just one step away
Whenever Bai Jinghong thought of what happened three years ago, his eyes became bloodshot with anger and he clenched his fists.
"Three years ago, I got home from work. Before I even reached the door, I saw my parents running out with Duoduo in their arms. I asked them what had happened. They said someone was chasing us and told me to take the child and run as far as possible. My dad was holding Duoduo and holding my mom. I really wanted to ask what happened, but the gunshots kept whistling in my ears. I couldn't care less and had to follow them. Unexpectedly, my mom was shot by them and was covered in blood. I wanted to take her away, but she said that if we took her, everyone would die. She asked me and my dad to take the child and leave, and not to worry about her. We must survive."
"No matter how reluctant I was, I had no choice but to do it. I took the child from my father. My father said that we should split up into two groups and he would be responsible for leading them away so that the child and I could survive. He told me to take good care of Duoduo no matter what and not let Duoduo get hurt."
As Bai Jinghong spoke, tears rolled down her cheeks, falling more and more violently, and she couldn't stop them.
Shen Shuli handed her a piece of paper.
Bai Jinghong said thank you, took the tissue and wiped her tears. After a long pause, she continued, "Even if I didn't want to at the time, I knew that my parents used them to lure away the killers, just to keep Duoduo alive. So, I ran away desperately. Unexpectedly, I met Earl William halfway. He stopped the car and asked me what happened? I told him what happened, and he immediately sent bodyguards to protect us mother and son, and sent people back to look for my father. I don't know if he escaped or what? My mother fell to the ground unconscious. When the killers saw us chasing them, they all left. I sent my mother to the hospital at the time, and she finally saved her life. It was Zheng Zezhi! It was that crazy old woman! She sent the killers to kill our family!"
After listening for a long time, Shen Shuli became more certain that Duoduo was the child of their Fu family.
Otherwise, how could Fu Yanci's parents use their own lives as bait to save Duoduo's life?
"Fu Yanci said that your parents had an adopted son named Fu Yancheng, who also died three years ago. Did he also die in this hunt?"
When Fu Yancheng's name was mentioned, Bai Jinghong's tears fell even harder. She cried so hard that she was out of breath and couldn't even speak.
Shen Shuli understood. It seemed that this Fu Yancheng really existed and had a deep relationship with Bai Jinghong. After all, they had been siblings for many years. Even if they were not related by blood, the relationship was not comparable to that of others.
She didn't ask any more questions, but just waited for her to vent her emotions.
The truth is very close.
She is only one step away from the truth about the Fu family!
The reason why Bai Jinghong could tell her all this must be because Fu Yanci instructed him to use her mouth to tell her everything he wanted to say to her.
Bai Jinghong almost cried through half a pack of tissues. She finally stopped crying and continued talking.
"Fu Yancheng was trying to take my seriously injured mother away, so he slowed down his pace and was caught up by the killer. He was shot in the head and died on the spot. He died to save my mother. Otherwise, if he had left on his own, he would definitely have survived!"
Chen Shuli still didn't quite understand, "Why did Fu Yanci want to erase all traces of Fu Yancheng's existence? My grandfather and my brother went to Europe to investigate, but they couldn't find any trace of Fu Yancheng at all. Except for the cemetery where he was buried three years ago, there was nothing."
Whenever she thought of what her grandfather had said about appearing and disappearing out of thin air, she felt something was wrong. How could a living person appear out of thin air? After living for so many years, there must be traces. Even the slightest clue would be impossible to find!
"Because my mother is still alive, there's a possibility she might be hunted down. Fu Yanci not only erased Fu Yancheng's traces, but also ours to prevent that old woman Zheng Zezhi from finding out and sending assassins to hunt us down. That's what happened back then. I've told you everything I saw and know. Can you take this case? Don't worry about the lawyer's fees. We'll pay for it no matter how much it is. We just want you to take this case."
Bai Jinghong said.
Shen Shuli thought of her grandfather's instructions. Their Fu family was in a mess now, and she was about to divorce Fu Yanci. There was no need for her to get involved in these messy affairs of the Fu family.
However, she did not refuse directly. Perhaps they would tell her more about the inside story of that year while they thought she was about to take over the case.
"I'll think about this matter carefully. If you can think of any more details, please tell me. Let's stop here for today."
Bai Jinghong was relieved to see her give in. "Then I'll go back first. If you're sure you've answered the phone, please let me know. Yan Ci and I are waiting for your reply."
When Shen Shuli heard her addressing Fu Yanci, she narrowed her eyes slightly, did not respond, and just walked out without any expression.
As the two of them walked through the office area, the landline next to Shen Shuli's desk rang.
"I'm going to answer a phone call."
She ignored Bai Jinghong and went to answer the phone.
Bai Jinghong did not leave, but followed her quietly. While she was answering the phone, she found a file bag on her desk. She picked up the file bag and opened it to look through it.
Shen Shuli was busy answering the phone and taking notes, and didn't notice her movements.
When Bai Jinghong saw the portrait in the bag, his hands were shaking with shock.
After Shen Shuli finished talking and hung up the phone, she turned around and saw Bai Jinghong holding her folder, and she suddenly became angry.
"How dare you touch my things? Give them back to me!"
"That's the killer! He's one of the killers hunting us! Where is he now? Why do you have his portrait?"
As soon as Bai Jinghong said this, everyone in the office looked at her.
Shen Shuli was stunned and snatched the portrait from her hand. This was the defendant in Zhang Wanru's lawsuit. Not only did he take on the job of hunting down Zhang Wanru, but he was also the real murderer who hunted down Fu Yanci's family three years ago?
"Is he the killer you just mentioned? Are you sure you didn't make a mistake?"
"Even if he turned into ashes, I would recognize him. It's definitely him! Have you been looking for him recently? Tell me, who is he? Where is he?"
Bai Jinghong's face was distorted with anger. She and Fu Yanci had been investigating for so many years but had not found any trace of the killer, but Chen Shuli had the killer's information.
Fu Yanci was right. It was indeed better to find Chen Shuli than Lin Zhenyue. Only with her could Zheng Zezhi be completely brought down.
No matter what the cost, they must convince Shen Shuli to help them fight this lawsuit!
Zheng Zezhi must die.
Even if it costs her everything, even if it costs her life, she will make that old woman Zheng Zezhi go to hell!
