Now reading: Chapter 388: Visiting in Person from Street Hustler and His Policewoman Wife, a Drama novel by It's just a cricket..

Chen Xiao had seen many killers who remained calm even at the end of their rope.

Wu Guansheng was one of them.

Having confessed all his cris, he was still steeping tea at this mont.

Before long, Liu Dayou found a black canvas bag at Wu Guansheng’s house.

Inside the bag, shockingly, were the bones of Zheng Xiang.

But Wu Guansheng hadn’t had the chance to make them into dominoes as ntioned in the phone call.

Wu Guansheng glanced at them calmly, then drank the scalding tea without concern.

Chen Xiao and Pan Huiping watched as the boiling tea contorted Wu Guansheng’s face, yet he covered his mouth with his hand to prevent the tea from spilling.

After Wu Guansheng swallowed the tea, he extended his hands to Pan Huiping.

The latter did not hesitate and promptly handcuffed Wu Guansheng.

"Captain Pan, we should take these bones back to the precinct first. I’ll handle the negotiations with Zheng’s family," Chen Xiao said.

Gratitude flickered in Pan Huiping’s eyes. "Alright, I trust you’ll handle it well."

Zheng Xiang’s bones were crucial evidence.

According to procedure, the bag of bones couldn’t be handed over to the Zheng Family yet.

However, the Zheng Family had consistently cooperated with the police, so ethically and logically, soone needed to provide an explanation.

Chen Xiao was obviously the most suitable person for this task.

Since he was the one who raised the issue initially.

After agreeing on their plan, Pan Huiping took Wu Guansheng away.

After they left, Liu Dayou couldn’t help but say to Chen Xiao, "Brother Chen, can I have a good talk with my sister?"

"Yes, I’ll call you when we return to Hai City."

Liu Dayou certainly had matters to attend to.

Wu Guansheng was the culprit.

For the Wu Family, it was as if their pillar had collapsed.

From Liu Dayou’s perspective, he did not think his sister had benefitted while living there.

Although his sister was disappointing, blood is thicker than water, and he couldn’t just ignore her.

He needed to persuade Liu Xiaoying to leave the Wu Family as soon as possible.

Only then could the harm to Liu Xiaoying be minimized.

Otherwise, once Wu Guansheng was caught, there would be no one left to restrain Wu Kuan the gambler.

Chen Xiao had Liu Dayou stay behind while he drove to the Zheng Family alone.

At that mont, the Zheng Family was all gathered together.

But no one spoke, unsure of what to say.

Dai Hong’Er stayed with Zheng Xiang’s widow, who had been crying constantly since the incident occurred.

Dai Hong’Er was the first to spot Chen Xiao entering the Zheng’s ho, and her face lit up with joy.

"Mr. Chen, you finally arrived. How are things going?"

Chen Xiao nodded and said, "Dean Zheng’s remains have been found!"

Upon hearing this, the Zheng Family all stood up, urgently asking, "Where is it? Why didn’t Mr. Chen bring them?"

"Mr. Chen, could you tell us where they are? We can send soone over right away," Zheng Tang said urgently.

Chen Xiao responded, "Everyone, besides informing you that the remains have been found, I’m also here to explain. The culprit in the case I’ve been investigating has been caught, and the remains were taken by them. So, procedurally, Dean Zheng’s remains can’t be handed over to you just yet, please understand!"

Chen Xiao explained sincerely.

The Zheng Family breathed a sigh of relief, but Zheng Tang still asked worriedly:

"It won’t be too troubleso or take too long, right?"

As the son, Zheng Tang certainly didn’t want his father, who passed away years ago, to be further disturbed.

Even if it was just a pile of bones, it was still unwelco.

"Don’t worry, it won’t be troubleso," Chen Xiao said.

Hearing Chen Xiao’s words, the Zheng Family finally nodded.

However, Zheng Xiang’s widow still asked: "Is there... about Old Zheng’s death?"

She didn’t finish her sentence, but Chen Xiao understood her aning and shook his head:

"From the current perspective, it shouldn’t be a problem. Of course, the final result will be communicated to you by the Hai City Celestial Valley District police as soon as possible. I can assure you, the Hai City Celestial Valley police will solemnly return the Dean’s remains."

To Chen Xiao, Zheng Xiang was soone with blemishes.

But was Zheng Xiang absolutely a bad person?

Chen Xiao wasn’t sure how to evaluate him, but he knew Zheng Xiang had devoted all his heart to the orphanage.

Every child who grew up in the orphanage should thank him.

However, the old friend from whom Zheng Xiang stole the formula had every reason to resent him.

If Zheng Xiang hadn’t stolen their formula, their family might have fallen but not so quickly.

Who could say for sure that they would have definitely fallen?

Chen Xiao didn’t plan to discuss this matter with the Zheng Family publicly, so he approached Zheng Tang and said:

"Mr. Zheng, let push you outside to discuss sothing privately."

Zheng Tang was now the head of the Zheng Family, and Chen Xiao felt he should know about Zheng Xiang’s actions.

Whatever their attitudes were afterward was none of Chen Xiao’s concern.

After pushing Zheng Tang outside, Chen Xiao explained the situation.

Upon hearing this, Zheng Tang instinctively said: "Impossible, my father lived his life with integrity, he wouldn’t do such a despicable thing!"

Chen Xiao didn’t argue but seriously said:

"I’ve confird this with Qiu Huasheng, whether you believe it or not is up to you. I just feel it’s my duty to inform you. However, I suspect you might rember the five million from that year, and upon calm reflection, you might feel that sothing about that money was abnormal."

Zheng Tang remained silent.

His eyes were full of doubt and indecision.

He respected his father but, as Chen Xiao pointed out, was also aware that so things were unusual.

Chen Xiao didn’t say more, pushing Zheng Tang back into the house.

"Everyone, there are many matters to attend to back in Hai City, so I’ll take my leave now."

With that, Chen Xiao looked at Dai Hong’Er.

He had agreed with her earlier to go to Hai City together after the matter was resolved.

Understanding his intent, Dai Hong’Er spoke briefly to the elderly lady, said goodbye to Zheng Tang, and then proceeded to leave with Chen Xiao.

After getting in the car, Dai Hong’Er gave Chen Xiao a thumbs-up and said:

"Mr. Chen, I respect you more and more for how you handle things and conduct yourself. Actually, you could have just let the police explain about Grandpa Zheng, but you chose to do it yourself."

"They gave convenience, so I naturally give them respect," Chen Xiao replied with a faint smile.

Dai Hong’Er nodded, "Do you think I’ve been respectful to you, Mr. Chen?"

"Without Miss Dai’s help, I definitely wouldn’t have succeeded so smoothly!" Chen Xiao said sincerely.

Dai Hong’Er smiled demurely and then eagerly asked, "Mr. Chen, is it ti to discuss what we talked about in Dongzhou?"
