Kong Chaoshan made a breakthrough. Han Dong received a call from Bai Yuming after lunch.
"Captain Han, we got news from the Yunzhou police. They learned that the locals didn't know that Hu Jie had killed someone and had been in jail. They thought that Hu Jie had been working outside. They said that Hu Jie was lucky and won the lottery. After returning to his hometown, he built a three-story building and opened a car repair shop in the county town. He is considered a wealthy man in the local area. As for the cause of Hu Jie's death, we learned an important piece of information. His wife said that Hu Jie was drowned when he was a child, so he was afraid of water and would not go swimming in the river. His wife mentioned this to the police at the time, but the police finally classified Hu Jie's death as an accidental drowning while swimming."
"This is too outrageous!" Han Dong was speechless.
"What about Sun Danian?"
"The year after the incident, Sun Danian bought houses for both of his sons, paying in full. This was impossible for Sun Danian to do based on his income."
“Are these situations recorded in detail?”
"Yes, I'll send it to you."
Kong Chaoshan is interrogating Mrs. Yu.
After listening to the recording played by Kong Chaoshan, Mrs. Yu was so frightened that her face turned pale.
"Mrs. Yu, please explain it carefully."
Mrs. Yu's hands and feet were shaking, and she couldn't stop trembling.
Kong Chaoshan said calmly, "This time, the old man is determined to find out the truth. If you cooperate, no matter what you did in the past, the old man will forgive you. After all, you are not the main culprit. You are just a shield at most. But if you don't cooperate... wait for me to find out the truth, and then I will also hold you accountable. You should know that in the old man's heart, the life of the third young master is much more important than the reputation of the Gu family."
Although Mrs. Yu was very scared, she still gritted her teeth and refused to say anything.
"Mrs. Yu, you've already said almost everything. You just need to complete the details in this recording. This is an opportunity given to you by the old man. It depends on whether you want to cherish it or not."
Mrs. Yu was torn between a dilemma and a thought: should she tell it or not
Tell me, can the old man really let her go
If he doesn't tell us, can Kong Chaoshan really find out the truth
Kong Chaoshan's cell phone vibrated with a buzzing sound.
Kong Chaoshan glanced at the incoming call number and went out to answer the call.
"Uncle Kong, I have some information here that may be useful to you." Han Dong said.
Kong Chaoshan's eyes narrowed: "Oh?"
"I'll send it to your phone, take a look."
Han Dong hung up the phone and forwarded the information.
The old man sent Zhu Huiyu to Yushan in the name of recuperation, but in fact it was house arrest. It seemed that he was giving an explanation to Su Ran and dealing with Zhu Huiyu, but Han Dong thought that the old man's move seemed more like luring the snake out of its hole, so he concluded that the old man's next step would be to investigate the truth of the car accident 26 years ago.
I hope these materials are useful to you.
Kong Chaoshan carefully read the information sent by Han Dong, lowered his eyebrows and sneered. This kid Han Dong saved him a lot of trouble.
Kong Chaoshan returned to the room, sat down on the chair opposite Mrs. Yu, and looked at her quietly.
"Have you thought about it?"
Mrs. Yu said weakly, "That's all I know. It's all in the recording. There's nothing else."
Kong Chaoshan said regretfully, "Sister Yu, Sister Yu, what can I say to you? You are still holding on to your luck. You really won't cry until you see the coffin."
Mrs. Yu’s face turned pale: “Really, that’s all I have.”
Kong Chaoshan put away his regrets and said with a cold look, "Did your wife really stay at home and not go out on the night of the accident?"
Mrs. Yu twisted her fingers tightly together.
"Then why did Sun Danian ask his wife for money? Sun Danian took the money, and the next year he bought two houses for his two sons, both of which were large three-bedroom apartments. And that Hu Jie returned to his hometown after he was released from prison and told people in his hometown that he had won the lottery in Shengzhou, so he built a small Western-style house that year and opened a repair shop. Sun Danian died of cancer on his own, but Hu Jie said he drowned while swimming. However, Hu Jie was drowned when he was a child, so he never dared to go swimming in the river again. Mrs. Yu, there are so many doubts. Don't think that I can't find out just because one person who gave false testimony is dead and the other person who was a scapegoat is gone." Kong Chaoshan said coldly.
The more Mrs. Yu listened, the more panicked she became. It was because Hu Jie was too high-profile, so her husband would not let Hu Jie go and asked Zhu Chunlai to find someone to kill Hu Jie.
I thought both of them were gone and there was no evidence, but now even Hu Jie’s death is about to be brought to light.
"Mrs. Yu, I heard that your daughter settled abroad." Kong Chaoshan said slowly.
Mrs. Yu was shocked: "You...what do you want to do?"
Kong Chaoshan smiled and said, "What do you think I want to do? I have friends over there, ask them to take care of your daughter! They are waiting for my call! If you delay any longer, your grandson will be out of kindergarten, and your daughter will go to pick him up. Maybe something unexpected will happen, such as a car accident."
"Kong Chaoshan, don't touch them." Mrs. Yu was terrified.
Kong Chaoshan spread his hands, smiling with a chilling coldness in his eyes: "Then it depends on you!"
Mrs. Yu's psychological defenses completely collapsed; she only had this one daughter.
Now Kong Chaoshan is threatening her with her daughter's life.
Ma'am, I'm sorry, I can't let anything happen to my daughter because of me.
"That night, around 8:30, the wife received a phone call. I heard that the second young master had a woman outside, so the wife drove out... The wife was furious. She saw it with her own eyes, but she didn't have the courage to make trouble with the second young master. She drank a little and drove home, and ended up hitting someone. She didn't expect that the person she hit was the third young master, who died on the spot. The wife was terrified and called her brother Zhu Chunlai. Zhu Chunlai had a friend who ran a repair shop. It just so happened that Hu Jie was eating supper nearby at that time..."
The old man sat in the room, holding his son Gu Chenglin's portrait in his hand, in a daze.
Knock, knock! Someone knocked on the door, and then the door was pushed open.
Kong Chaoshan said respectfully, "Old man, Mrs. Yu has confessed everything. The third young master was indeed hit by the lady. The lady saw the second young master with another woman. She drank a little and lost control of her emotions. The third young master died on the spot. The lady asked Zhu Chunlai to clean up the mess for her. Hu Jie was the scapegoat arranged by Zhu Chunlai. The repair shop was opened by Zhu Chunlai's friend. The repair records provided at the time were all fake. The lady gave the repair shop one million yuan, and the witness Sun Danian also accepted the bribe and gave false testimony. So..."
The old man was holding on to the edge of the photo frame tightly, and so, his Cheng Lin was gone, his most outstanding son was gone.
