Chapter 6 Her house was robbed!
Charity cemetery.
Cao Chengwu's body was placed in the yard. A middle-aged man with a goatee hurried over. He was Zhang, the coroner from the yamen.
Ye Chutang, Ye Yunfeng and the Cao family stood on both sides, and the atmosphere was tense.
When Cao Chengwen saw the person coming, he immediately stepped forward and said anxiously:
"Mr. Zhang, you must conduct a thorough autopsy and find out the truth behind my brother's death!"
Coroner Zhang nodded repeatedly.
Ye Chutang was watching from the side and suddenly said, "Although Young Master Cao and his brother are not born of the same mother, their relationship is very deep and touching."
Cao Chengwen's face froze. "I have been with my mother since I was a child, and grew up with my brother. Naturally, I am incomparable to others!"
The whole Jiangling knew that Cao Deping, the owner of Cao's Restaurant, was a womanizer. His original wife died after giving birth to their son. But only one month later, he married his sister-in-law, now Mrs. Cao.
Cao Chengwen was a few years older than his younger brother and had always had a very good relationship with him. He was very indulgent. Cao Chengwu had gotten into a lot of trouble since he was a child, and it was basically Cao Chengwen who helped solve them.
But this time he went too far and died.
Ye Chutang nodded and said nothing more, but Cao Chengwen felt uneasy and glanced at Ye Chutang from time to time.
He always felt that Ye Chutang's question was...
He looked at Coroner Zhang again and clenched his fists secretly.
Time passes slowly.
Finally, Coroner Zhang completed the autopsy.
Wu Xu immediately asked: "How?"
Coroner Zhang sighed and said, "There are no serious external injuries on the body, but there are large areas of purpura, and he died of suffocation. I guess... he was allergic to something he ate before he died. The time of death was probably Chou time today."
This is consistent with the conclusion drawn by Ye Chutang.
Wu Xu nodded, and then asked Ye Yunfeng: "What did you do after fighting with Cao Chengwu yesterday?"
When Ye Yunfeng heard what Zhang the coroner said, he already had an idea in his mind, and his originally panicked mood calmed down a lot.
He said seriously, "After we had a fight at the academy, I went home and never saw him again. My classmates at the academy can all testify to this!"
Cao Chengwen frowned: "Who knows if you secretly went to find Chengwu later!"
Ye Chutang raised his eyebrows slightly: "All of Afeng's actions in the academy yesterday were testified by his classmates. As for Cao Chengwu, as far as I know, he also went home after school. Master Cao suspected that Afeng did something secretly - he is only twelve years old. It would be difficult for him to enter Cao's house without being noticed, right?"
Cao Chengwen's expression was very ugly.
Because he also knew very well that Ye Chutang's words were flawless.
After the two people who had the conflict left the college, they went back home and never had any contact again.
In this situation, it is absolutely impossible to prove that Ye Yunfeng was the one who did it!
"Besides, if it was really Ah Feng who did it, Cao Chengwu should have been ill long ago, and would not have been discovered after a whole night." Ye Chutang continued, "And how come it was such a coincidence that the second young master of the Cao family had an acute illness and none of the servants were around, so that no one discovered the accident until the next morning?"
Mrs. Cao, who was originally immersed in grief, was shocked when she heard this and raised her head abruptly: "What do you mean by this!?"
"Mrs. Cao should know exactly what I mean."
Ye Chutang didn't think that the woman who had been able to hold the position of Mrs. Cao for so many years was really a fool. She was probably confused because she had just experienced the pain of losing her son and the blow was too great for a while. Now, with just a little guidance, it would not be difficult for her to find the problem.
——Cao Chengwu is allergic to river shrimp. Once he touches this thing, he will definitely get sick within half an hour. He feels uncomfortable, but doesn't he know to call for help? But nothing happened to the Cao family last night. When the servants found out that something happened, he was already in a very bad condition.
The person who did it clearly wanted to kill him immediately and would not leave him even the slightest chance.
Mrs. Cao's eyes were panicked and frightened.
At this time, Wu Xu also asked: "Excuse me, Madam Cao, has your son offended anyone recently?"
"No, no..." Madam Cao thought about it again and again, muttering in disbelief, "Although he is usually a bit irritable, it's just a minor incident. It's not enough to kill him!"
She has a point.
Cao Chengwu is fourteen years old this year. He has been spoiled by his family since he was young and has often taken advantage of his family to bully the weak.
But it is really unlikely that they would become mortal enemies.
Ye Chutang glanced at Cao Chengwen calmly, and asked casually, "Then... where is Young Master Cao?"
Cao Chengwen looked up suddenly as if he was pricked by a needle: "W-what!?"
Ye Chutang stared at him closely, not missing any change in his expression, but his tone remained calm and indifferent: "I said, Master Cao and Master Cao have a good relationship, you should also know more about his situation, maybe you can think of any suspicious person?"
Cao Chengwen's lips turned pale. "Oh, oh! You, you're talking about this... I'm not really sure. I've been busy with the store recently, so I didn't pay much attention to him."
Wu Xu thought for a moment and said, "According to the time of death given by Zhang the coroner, it is very likely that someone from Cao's residence did this."
He raised his hand.
"Start with those people!"
…
Ye Chutang took Ye Yunfeng back to the clinic and waited for the results of the government's investigation.
It was already getting dark, and there were not many people on the remote path, only the brother and sister were walking side by side.
Ye Yunfeng was a person who could not hide his thoughts. Seeing that there was no one around, he finally couldn't help but move closer and asked in a low voice: "Sister, do you think there is something wrong with Cao Chengwen?"
Ye Chutang did not directly answer his question, but instead mentioned another matter: "I heard that Boss Cao has not been in good health recently."
Although Ye Yunfeng has a straightforward temper, he is not stupid and even understands things quickly.
At this time, when Ye Chutang said this, he reacted for a few seconds and instantly realized something: "Sister, are you saying that Cao Chengwen is worried that Cao Chengwu will compete with him for the family property?"
Cao Chengwu is only fourteen and may not have any idea about these things, but Cao Chengwen is already nineteen and will definitely make plans for himself.
As long as Cao Chengwu dies, the Cao family will belong to him alone.
Ye Chutang didn't say yes, nor did he say no.
Ye Yunfeng scratched his head, still feeling a little unbelievable: "But they are brothers after all, how could he have the heart to..."
Ye Chutang stopped in front of the clinic and said to him with a faint smile: "Don't talk nonsense without evidence."
Ye Yunfeng immediately fell silent.
Ye Chutang pushed open the door, but the next moment, her smile froze on her face.
In the courtyard, the little baby whom she had carefully taken care of for three years was now nestled in a man's arms, chewing on a lotus cake seriously.
Hearing the noise, two people, one big and one small, looked over at the same time.
Facing those deep, half-smiling eyes, Ye Chutang had only one thought in his mind -
Her house was robbed!!!
