Street Hustler and His Policewoman Wife

Chapter 379: Lucky Guy, You Really Are Lucky!

A storm hit in the early morning.

Before the storm, lightning and thunder filled the sky!

At that time, Chen Xiao was at Leigong Mountain, and discovered the second Qiu Tingfang.

Pan Huiping and Liu Dayou nearly encountered fatal danger due to an accident while picking up Chen Xiao!

But the storm didn’t just wash away the soil that buried Qiu Tingfang.

It also made all the soil in the storm zone look as if it was newly refreshed!

At this moment, Chen Xiao was eager to know whether the storm in the early morning also hit Xiuzhou!

If it did hit Xiuzhou, then it would truly be as if heaven was helping that person!

A wave of unprecedented excitement surged in Chen Xiao’s heart.

He quickly picked up his phone and dialed Pan Huiping’s number again.

"Captain Pan, are you still with the Zheng Family?"

"Yes, what’s up?"

"Could you help me ask if there was also a heavy storm in Xiuzhou in the early morning!"

Pan Huiping frowned for a moment, unable to understand what Chen Xiao meant.

However, she still asked Zheng Tang, who replied confidently: "The rain was heavy last night!"

Receiving this answer, Chen Xiao couldn’t help but take a deep breath.

"Give me two minutes, I need to recall something."

Chen Xiao spoke without hanging up the phone.

His mind began to recollect the scene in front of Zheng Xiang’s grave.

Zheng Xiang’s grave wasn’t built with cement.

It was just a mound of soil with a tombstone erected.

The entire soil grave was washed by the morning storm to make it look like new soil, and rainwater converged into small streams and formed little channels surrounding the grave!

The environment there was quite bad.

After recalling the scene, Chen Xiao checked Xiuzhou’s recent weather using his computer.

Upon seeing the consecutive rainy days, Chen Xiao couldn’t help but say:

"Lucky guy, you really are fortunate!"

On the other end of the phone, Pan Huiping asked instinctively: "Who are you talking about?"

"I can’t tell you for now because you would find it absurd as well, but the feeling is getting stronger, and I need to find evidence to prove it all."

"But we shouldn’t forget the four words we talked about in the car earlier."

"Wind soldiers grass armor?"

"Yes, we mustn’t see imaginary foes everywhere! Because the case spans too long a period, making everything seem problematic though it originally wasn’t."

Making everything that originally wasn’t problematic appear problematic!

This sentence suddenly made Pan Huiping understand what Chen Xiao was pointing at.

Yet, she still couldn’t figure out who Chen Xiao was referring to.

"Okay, I’ll wait here for your good news."

"No, I think you should find the good news yourself."

"I have no progress here, I feel even if the testing confirms the bones are Qiu Yu’s, so what?"

"Isn’t the focus misplaced?"

"Finding clues from the bones, what’s wrong with that?" Pan Huiping said, but then she realized:

"You mean to ask me to focus on examining the casket?"

"Yes, you haven’t yet taken some time to have a conversation with the casket, have you?"

"I understand what you mean, I’ll go ask it now. But won’t you come?"

"I’ll go, but not to find you."

Chen Xiao said with a smile, and Pan Huiping didn’t ask further.

After ending the call, Chen Xiao made a call to Xiaoji and Liu Dayou.

He instructed Xiaoji to stay in Hai City while taking Liu Dayou back to Xiuzhou.

After the arrangements, Chen Xiao looked at Qiu Huasheng watching the video repeatedly.

"President Qiu, you stay here, you don’t need to follow anymore."

Qiu Huasheng turned back and gave Chen Xiao a deep bow:

"Mr. Chen, please, I’m counting on you!"

Chen Xiao nodded slightly.

He suddenly felt that Qiu Huasheng seemed to have become a different person.

Although he previously lost his wife and daughter, he still had a fierce aura about him.

But now, after watching the video left by his deceased daughter over and over, he seemed defeated and aged.

Without saying much, Chen Xiao opened the door and left.

Then he reunited with Liu Dayou, and both headed to Xiuzhou.

Although Chen Xiao had been running between places the entire day, it wasn’t too tiring for him.

However, Liu Dayou seemed quite fatigued by the afternoon.

Shortly after driving, Liu Dayou fell into a deep sleep.

Chen Xiao didn’t wake him, continuing to drive quietly.

But at this moment, a call from Lin Xi came through.

"Hi, handsome, is there any progress?"

Lin Xi’s tone was cheerful.

Yet Chen Xiao still sensed a fatigue hidden within.

"Already this exhausted, still laughing and joking."

"Oh... I just wanted to give you a call to perk up, but there’s nothing much happening today so I can get off work at the usual time."

Chen Xiao acknowledged with a sound, and Lin Xi continued:

"And you, how’s the situation over there?"

Chen Xiao glanced at Liu Dayou, then began telling Lin Xi about Wang Hao possibly killing Wang Mei and the storm.

After finishing, Chen Xiao posed a question to Lin Xi:

"I now suspect someone, guess who that is?"

"I’ve already guessed, but does this mean Dayou is with you in the car?"

Lin Xi is very smart.

Maybe it’s also because Chen Xiao gave pretty clear hints.

He mentioned the storm as well as his previous feeling of being overly tense.

The hints were laid out so clearly, with Lin Xi constantly pondering over the case, it wasn’t hard to guess.

But even though she guessed, Lin Xi also felt it was absurd like Chen Xiao.

"So where are you planning to start looking for evidence against him?"

"Currently no way, but I think after the rain washed the soil it’s hard to find anything, but what about the casket? Even with great craftsmanship, the nails being reapplied will always leave traces."

"That’s true, but it won’t be enough, will it?"

"So now I’m going to find out if he has the time to commit the crime!"

"That still won’t be sufficient."

As a Deputy Captain of the Criminal Police, Lin Xi knew well that evidence needs to be comprehensive to be valid.

If there’s any issue with the evidence, it may provide a chance for the perpetrator to escape judgment.

Chen Xiao naturally understood this point, but he was still confident, speaking:

"As long as it can be confirmed it’s him, then everything else can be integrated together. By then, he won’t be able to argue his way out."

"You’re right, because someone never fights a battle without certainty!"

"Exactly, now rest yourself, when you get home tonight don’t worry about my situation, I’ll inform you immediately if there’s good news."

"Got it, drive safely, bye-bye hubby."

Lin Xi happily hung up.

Chen Xiao grinned, picking up speed.

Meanwhile, on the passenger seat, Liu Dayou’s snoring could be heard.

Chen Xiao wondered if he’d still feel like sleeping when they reached their destination later.

With this thought in mind, Chen Xiao finally parked the car under a hotel.

He looked up at the building and woke Liu Dayou.

Noticing the surroundings, Liu Dayou rubbed his eyes and asked in confusion: "Bro, weren’t we going to meet Captain Pan? Why did you stop at my parents’ hotel!"
