Gene Fusion System: Crime Hunter

"Captain Zhao, let Yang Mei and the others come down."

He looked up and shouted, then picked up a hoe and began digging carefully.

Before long, Yang Mei and the members of the technical team came down one by one with their toolboxes.

At this moment, after Zhang Fan dug a few times, a section of white bone was already exposed in the soil, and he stopped his actions.

Yang Mei walked over to him and, upon seeing that hand bone, her expression immediately turned serious.

"Thank you for your hard work, Team Leader Zhang, leave the rest to us."

"Alright, I'll head up first then."

The cellar was already small, and suddenly with four more people, it became very crowded.

To give them space, Zhang Fan said a word and returned to the surface.

"Zhang Fan, what's the situation down there?" Zhao Donglai asked immediately.

"There's indeed a skeleton buried in the soil below, and unless something unexpected happens, it should be Chen Chahua without a doubt."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Donglai looked at Luo Fei and murmured, "I didn't expect you to be right!"

And the others who were watching also looked on with admiration.

"Just solved a case, and now another one, Team Leader Luo, you're incredible!"

"Can't compare, can't compare, Team Leader Luo, you're my idol from now on!"

"Haha, I told you there's no case our team leader can't solve..."

Among the voices of admiration, Luo Fei followed Zhao Donglai outward.

At this moment, a yellow police line had been set up around Yang Dawei's house, and a crowd of villagers had gathered to watch, discussing what crime Yang Dawei had committed.

As they walked, Zhao Donglai arranged, "Since the body has been found, we should head back to interrogate Yang Dawei."

"Yang Su, Zhang Fan, you and first and second group stay here for now, wait until Yang Mei and the others finish excavating the body, then regroup. Luo Fei, take your members, let's head back first."

"Okay."

...

At 11:45, Luo Fei and the others returned to the police station.

Not even taking a break, the two brought Yang Dawei to the interrogation room immediately.

Just like last time, as soon as Zhao Donglai started, Yang Dawei denied everything, thinking he could muddle through like before.

However, when Zhao Donglai took out the photos of his cellar being broken open, he was stunned.

In shock, he couldn't help but ask, "How did you find out after all these years, with no one knowing?"

Clearly, that place was so hidden...

Zhao Donglai snorted coldly, "If you want to avoid being known, don't do it. Yang Dawei, now that the evidence is irrefutable, do you still want to deny it?"

At the moment the cellar was broken open, Yang Dawei knew that he couldn't escape anymore.

In desperation, he slumped and said, "I confess, I confess..."

Then he began to justify himself, "But even though I killed my wife, it's not entirely my fault, it was all her, she wouldn't listen..."

"She refused to ask her uncle for money, and she wouldn't go earn for me. What's the point of having such a wife?"

The two were left speechless by his logic.

"Yang Dawei, as a man, you don't earn to support the family but expect your wife to support you? Are you shameless?"

"Moreover, just because she doesn't earn to support you, you decide to kill her? Where in the world does such a logic exist?"

"Why should I be ashamed? I married her for her parents' compensation, would I have married such an unlucky star otherwise? And I've been so poor my whole life, maybe it's her bad luck!"

He became more indignant as he spoke, as if he was the victim.

This shameless argument angered Zhao Donglai greatly. He'd seen shameless people before, but never someone who could be shameless with such conviction.

"Alright, Yang Dawei, just tell us why you killed and how you did it, save us the irrelevant details."

Zhao Donglai said while angrily hitting the table.

If he continued listening, he feared he wouldn't be able to control himself from hitting him.

Note-taking Luo Fei also spoke up, "Yang Dawei, according to what you just said, do you admit that you got together with Chen Chahua for her parents' compensation?"

"Exactly!" Yang Dawei nodded decisively.

Without waiting for them to speak, he recounted everything in detail.

Through his account, the two finally learned the whole story.

It turned out that Yang Dawei had accidentally learned about Chen Chahua's background, and being idle at that time, he immediately realized it was an opportunity to get rich.

So he started all kinds of efforts to get close to Chen Chahua, and successfully won her heart.

After they got together, he used marriage as an excuse to urge Chen Chahua to ask her uncle for money, but her miserly uncle refused to give.

Later, Chen Chahua severed ties with her uncle's family and married him.

Yet, he became more indignant, feeling it was a loss that the money slipped away, so he wanted Chen Chahua to cause a scene at her uncle's house with him, but she refused no matter what.

This agitated him more, and he often vented his anger by beating her.

Later, one year, he unintentionally got involved with Ning Shaobin's gang, and realizing it was a lucrative venture, he wanted to take Chen Chahua along.

But she said it was unethical, disagreed, and even advised him to stop, threatening to report him if he didn't.

That made him furious, and in his rage, he beat her until midnight before falling into a deep sleep.

He didn't expect that the next morning, when he woke up, he found Chen Chahua missing.

Afraid she might really report him, he quickly chased after her, catching up just as she was heading to the town.

Though Chen Chahua kept explaining she had no intention of reporting him, only wanting to treat her injuries.

His rage blinded him, and fearing to cut off all future troubles, he decided to kill her without hesitation.

From there, it was simple. He took a shortcut to avoid the villagers, brought Chen Chahua back to his cellar, forced her to call her uncle, creating a facade of her running away with someone to fool everyone.

In reality, right after that call, Chen Chahua was beaten to death in the cellar by him.

Later, fearing discovery, he even sealed the cellar with cement in the middle of the night...

After hearing everything, Luo Fei and Zhao Donglai were speechless.

Being so vicious to his spouse, it was clear this person was scum without a doubt.

Only pity for Chen Chahua, an innocent life ended just like that...

But the case was now basically clear.

In the end, Luo Fei let Yang Dawei sign his name under the confession, and then he and Zhao Donglai walked out of the interrogation room.

The two lamented over Chen Chahua's fate, and then Zhao Donglai said, "We've been busy for so long, haven't had lunch yet, let's go grab a bite."

As he was speaking, Luo Fei's phone rang.

It was Luo Xiaoxiao calling.

"Brother, are you still coming today? It's almost one o'clock." Luo Xiaoxiao's voice was on the verge of tears over the phone.

Only then did Luo Fei suddenly remember he had promised Luo Xiaoxiao he would visit the school.

"I'll come, I'll come, wait for me at the school, I'll be there soon."

Saying that, he hurriedly told Zhao Donglai, "Captain Zhao, I have something to handle, I won't eat."

And with that, he rushed off.

He arrived at Luo Xiaoxiao's school as fast as he could, and upon seeing him, Luo Xiaoxiao said pitifully, "Brother, I thought you weren't coming."

"I promised I would come, and I do what I promise. Let's go see your head teacher first."

"Okay!"

Luo Xiaoxiao happily led him to the office.

His head teacher, Xu Wenjing, was a serious woman in her forties.

Usually lively, Luo Xiaoxiao shrank back like a mouse seeing a cat when she saw her, and quietly introduced, "Teacher Xu, this is my brother."

Xu Wenjing looked Luo Fei over, seeing the two did have some resemblance, she began, "Hello, I'm Luo Xiaoxiao's head teacher. I wanted to talk about Luo Xiaoxiao's grades."

"Hello, Teacher Xu, please go ahead."

"It's like this, Luo Xiaoxiao's midterm grades this semester were not ideal, but she has great potential..."
