Chapter 158: This Was Not an Accident, It Was a Deliberate Murder!
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation 1 Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Hearing this, Su Xuan furrowed his brow.
To be honest, he had acted on a whim initially. After all, he hadn’t seen the murderer at the crime scene. Plus, investigations had revealed that the victim didn’t have any enemies, and his relationship with his girlfriend was good. Revenge killing should not have been a possibility.
But for some reason, even as he had started writing the report, Su Xuan felt that something was amiss. That’s why he had planned to have the forensic examiner reevaluate the victim…
And now, it had indeed been reevaluated.
“If the illness was induced, then the probability that his girlfriend is involved is high, Su Xuan said with a serious expression.
“What we need to do now is to bring his girlfriend here as soon as possible.” If I remember correctly, she should be coming to pick them up today?” The victim’s parents had come all the way from a remote area. Due to their remote location, it had taken them a full three days to arrive. His girlfriend was supposed to pick them up today, accompanied by police officers from the local precinct.
Hearing this, his colleague nodded.
Yeah, his parents have finally arrived.”
“It’s been a full three days, and now that they are here and we have discovered some leads, shouldn’t we have them come in?”
“After all, if we are really going to investigate this, we need their cooperation to understand what happened.”
If it was defined as an accident, like it had been initially, then there wouldn’t be a need for all this. But given the possibility that it wasn’t an accident…
Someone had administered medication to the victim, causing his condition to deteriorate in public. Perhaps it was an attempt to teach the victim a lesson, but it had resulted in an accident.
Or, it might have been premeditated with the intention of killing the victim. After all, an accident-induced illness could also be lethal.
Whatever the reason, they couldn’t just let this incident pass without further investigation!
“First, notify our colleagues to come over,” Su Xuan said upon hearing this, his brow furrowing. He continued, “If the victim’s illness was indeed induced by someone, then his girlfriend…”
“The suspicion is high!”
“Let our colleagues know and bring them here as soon as the guests arrive. We’ll re-examine the case.”
Upon hearing this, his colleague, who had been talking to him, nodded and adopted a serious expression.
“Alright, I understand.”
“I’ll inform them…”
Airport.
Two elderly men, their hair turned white with age, disembarked from the plane, looking weary from the journey. As they walked out of the airport, they spotted Zheng Qin waiting not far away, accompanied by two police officers. During the flight, the two old men had been pondering. Their son might have had a bit of bad luck since childhood, and he had developed this habit as he grew up, but it shouldn’t have cost him his life just by having a meal with his fiancee!
Throughout the journey, they had almost convinced themselves that it might be a prank from their son and future daughter-in-law. After all, these two kids were known for their playful nature.
Yet, no matter how mischievous they were, using their own life and death as part of a prank seemed excessively cruel.
The old man even thought about scolding their son and future daughter-in-law thoroughly once they met them. Life was so precious; how could they use it as a joke?
Both old men secretly thought that they didn’t want to admit that it might be true, that their son might have truly passed away.
It wasn’t until this moment when they saw the two police officers standing beside their future daughter-in-law that they had to face the possibility that this might be real.
They had to confront the fact that their son might have already died.
With these thoughts in mind, both old men’s steps faltered.
“Qin Qin…”
Zhou Jianguo supported his wife, who was already stumbling, and rushed toward their future daughter-in-law. He couldn’t believe it and muttered, “Hao Hao…”
“Is it… Is it really…”
The word hung at the tip of his tongue, but he couldn’t bring himself to say it.
It felt like something was blocking his throat.
In a self-deprecating manner, he thought that as long as they didn’t say that word, maybe their son hadn’t really died!
Zheng Qin, looking at the future in-laws, couldn’t hold back her tears. She took a step forward and gently held Zhou’s mother’s arm, her voice trembling.
“Uncle, Aunt, let’s go to the police station first… It’s been many days, and the police should be close to closing the case… After that, I’ll take you to see Haoge.”
Hearing these words, Zhou’s father and mother, who had been holding on, suddenly felt their legs give way, and they collapsed to the ground. If it weren’t for the quick support from the two police officers accompanying Zheng Qin, they might have ended up in the hospital themselves.
Yet, precisely because of this, both of them were even more convinced that their son might have truly met an unfortunate fate. They thought about the phone call from the police before and the information they had learned from Zhou Qin.
A sense of despair and sorrow overwhelmed them.
However, in this moment, even when forced to accept the truth, there was still a part of their hearts that couldn’t help but resist.
They couldn’t help but wonder…
What if it’s still just a prank now?
Their son had been fine all these years; how could he possibly…
With such anxious hearts, the two of them, accompanied by the two police officers, arrived at the police station.
The moment they saw Su Xuan, they knew he was the police officer in charge of their son’s case.
The two elderly men, who couldn’t accept the fact that their son had died, almost shook Su Xuan’s hand vigorously.
“Officer!”
While it’s true that my son had a condition like this, he always carried his medication with him every day!”
“And you said over the phone that my son fell on his own…”
“How is that even possible? My son couldn’t have gone like this…”
“Officer, did you investigate properly…”
Could someone have deliberately harmed my son!?”
“My son died so suddenly, I can’t accept it!”
Zhou’s mother held onto Su Xuan’s arm, her voice filled with despair.
Living in a remote mountainous region where knowledge about contraception was limited due to the lack of access to education, they didn’t really have a choice when it came to family planning. They got married and ended up having four children out of which only Zhou Hao survived.
They had struggled and worked hard to raise their son and send him to college, hoping that he would eventually take care of them. But their son had died under mysterious circumstances in distant Xiangjiang City.

The couple had spent the better part of their lives raising their son, and they were on the brink of enjoying the fruits of their labor, expecting to welcome grandchildren soon. Now, their world had crumbled.
Seeing their anguish, Su Xuan couldn’t help but feel sympathy. He carefully chose his words, considering the previous test results.
“Based on the blood test results for Zhou Hao, it seems that he had taken an overdose of medication prior to this…”
Upon hearing this, Zhou’s mother, who had been crying, was taken aback.
“W-what?”
