Chapter 4: Raise an Eyebrow and Exhale

  Lu Zhengdong's words were like a thunderbolt, not only stunning Zhang Cui but also leaving Dong Yangsheng standing there with his mouth agape. However, as a man, Dong Yangsheng had slightly more courage and after being stunned for a moment, he stuttered:

  "Lu Zhengdong... what are you talking about? You drove my wife to death and still... still... dare to insult me!"

  Lu Zhengdong's gaze was like a sharp knife, tightly staring at Dong Zhang and the others, as if to penetrate their chests, directly into their hearts, saying word by word:

  "Dong Yangsheng, am I a blood-spitting person? You two think you can get away with your clandestine affair so seamlessly? You two have such big guts!"

  The quilt can't be left by Dong Yangsheng and Yang Yuqing, because the Dong family just held a funeral, if it was left before, it would definitely be pressed to the bottom by the garbage generated by the funeral.

  This thing is also unlikely to be left by an outsider. Lu Zhengdong has been in the mountains and countryside for two years, and he still knows many customs of the mountains and rural areas. The host family would absolutely not allow guests to do such things in their own home, thinking that guests doing that in the house would bring bad luck, so it is completely possible to "rule out" the suspicion of outsiders committing the crime.

  The male protagonist of this matter is definitely Dong Yangsheng.

  Yang Yuqing has only been dead for a few days, and her body is still cold. Dong Yangsheng is already doing this kind of thing, which means that Dong Yangsheng must have had another woman all along! That being the case, Dong Yangsheng's actions are absolutely connected to Yang Yuqing's death!

  But just having Dong Yangsheng is not enough, we must also find the woman who had an improper relationship with him.

  Zhang Cui Ping who cooked was right under his nose, and later married Dong Yang Sheng, naturally becoming the first object of his suspicion, but he couldn't quite grasp it.

  Such things, as long as there is a hint, are spread far and wide in rural areas. He had not heard any rumors about Dong Yangsheng and Zhang Cuijuan before, and it was very common for people to help each other out in the countryside. So Lu Zhengdong thought of carefully observing their expressions during meals. If they really had an improper relationship, there would definitely be some abnormal situation, only then dare he lock her down.

  Dong Yangsheng and Zhang Cui Ping were taken aback when he directly spoke out the illicit affair between the two, their faces changed in an instant, they stared at him in horror, unable to utter a single word.

  Lu Zhengdong was not in a hurry to take out the condom, that was his trump card, which had to be used at the most critical moment to make the most fatal blow, thoroughly crushing their psychological defense line.

  Before this, it is necessary to make Dong and Zhang's minds completely disordered, so he continued to say loudly:

  "Aren't you going to admit it? Hehe, now technology is very advanced, and even if you don't admit it, there are many ways to investigate. Do you know about DNA? Not only what you've done recently, but also what you did in the past... as long as we take the ** that Dong Yangsheng left on Zhang Cuiping's body for a test, everything will be revealed..."

  Lin Donghe heard Lu Zhengdong mention the matter of men and women, and she was so embarrassed that she didn't dare to look at him, but she also knew that this matter had a great relationship with Lu Zhengdong, so she couldn't help but perk up her ears and listen to every word of Lu Zhengdong's.

  "Hehe, or are you still thinking in your hearts that the stuff you brought with you is all left in the suits? Even if DNA is advanced, it's useless. Hehe, you're greatly mistaken!"

  Even if you brought a set, there are still many ways to find out. Do you know how the police cracked the gun case? Do you know how they cracked the rape case? The trajectory of each bullet fired from a gun is unique and leaves traces. As long as they examine the bullet head, they can tell which gun it was fired from. As for how many shots were fired and when, just take a look at the gun barrel. This principle has been fully applied to rape cases. Those rapists do their thing and run away, but why can the police still catch them? It's because they use this same principle. Your two cases are even simpler. Dong Yangsheng, your gun is here, and Zhang Cuijuan, the place where you were shot is also here. The police just need to investigate, and the evidence will be conclusive, the facts clear. You think you can get away with it? That's impossible!

  Dong Yangsheng and Zhang Cui Ping are rural people with little culture and knowledge, they may not even know the common knowledge of public security case handling, let alone high-tech forensic knowledge. Lu Zhengdong also used such mysterious things to cheat them.

  Seeing the two pale faces, frightened and uncertain, Lu Zhengdong knew that his strategy was still effective, so he added another fuel to the fire:

  "Speak up, tell the truth. I think that considering your family's situation, I can still put in a good word for you, count it as a meritorious act of surrender, and reduce your punishment. If we wait until the police arrive, not only will the fact that you two murdered Yang Yuqing be exposed to the world, but also because you two refuse to confess, you will be dealt with severely!"

  Lu Zhengdong's words made Dong Yangsheng unable to support himself first, his face turned pale, his lips trembling, and it took a while before he spoke:

  "It's unjust, my wife really did commit suicide, really did commit suicide...... The government can't wrong people either..."

  The cause of Yang Yuqing's death was confirmed by the Public Security Bureau, and it was indeed a suicide. However, Lu Zhengdong insisted that they had murdered him, also trying to force the two to reveal the truth about Yang Yuqing's death.

  Lu Zhengdong saw Dong Yangsheng only said that his wife was a suicide, but did not mention that she was forced to death by the requisition and retention of unified planning. It seems that Yang Yaqing's death is indeed suspicious, so he continues to exert great psychological pressure on them:

  "Dong Yangsheng, you're not giving up until you reach the Yellow River, what's going on? Speak!"

  "It's a miscarriage of justice! My wife didn't die at our hands, she really did take her own life, yes, she really did..."

  Dong Yang's heart was in great turmoil, and he had already tacitly acknowledged his relationship with Zhang Cui Ping. He smiled coldly:

  "Falsely accused? I think you're the kind of person who won't shed a tear until they see their own coffin! What's wrapped in the sanitary napkins in that trash heap, do you know?! Do you want to take it to the police station and have another test?!"

  Lu Zhengdong let out a loud roar, and Dong Yangsheng and Zhang Cui Ping were immediately completely stunned, their bodies swaying slightly, both of them leaning weakly against the wall, terrified.

  Lu Zhengdong saw the two people like this and slowly said:

  "If you two are obstinate, then I'll have no choice but to let the public security bureau re-investigate Yang Yuqing's case. At that time, it's likely that both of you will end up in prison..."

  Zhang Cui Ping heard this and her body went soft, suddenly she knelt down in front of Lu Zheng Dong with a thud, crying loudly:

  "Stop... Village Chief Lu, I'm saying... it's all my fault... has nothing to do with Dong Yangsheng..."

  Lu Zhengdong looked at Zhang Cui Ping like that, apparently his whole mind had collapsed.

  "Yang Sheng, Director Lu has said it all, we can't make another mistake. Yu'er's mother is dead, if she loses her father too, how will she survive? Let's tell the truth... Director Lu, it's all my fault, I've wronged Yu Qing's sister, wronged Yang Sheng, I'm the one who killed Yu Qing..."

  Dong Yangsheng immediately knelt down in front of him as soon as Zhang Cuiping said that:

  "Director Lu, it has nothing to do with Cui Ping's affairs. If you want to arrest someone, arrest me. It was all me... That day my wife went back to her parents' home... Cui Ping's home wasn't convenient... so I let Cui Ping come to my place. Who knew she would return and discover what happened between us? She kicked both me and Cui Ping out of the house. After I lingered outside for a while, when I returned, she...she...hanged herself..."

  Lu Zhengdong also roughly understood how the two got together. Zhang Cuiying's husband was useless, and there was no pillar in the family. It can be imagined that a woman in the countryside has to bear the bitterness and hardship of supporting a family alone. Perhaps it was because of this that she had an affair with Dong Yangsheng, who often helped her out.

  As long as it can be confirmed that Yang Yuqing's death was mainly due to the exposure of their adultery, that would be enough.

  As for the details of this matter, Lu Zhengdong was also uninterested in understanding.

  After listening to both of them, Lu Zhengdong felt as if a huge stone had been lifted off his heart...

  Dong Yangsheng and Zhang Cuiping agreed to go surrender, but when the two could come back they were not clear, family matters still had to be handed over to relatives.

  When the relatives of both sides arrived, the two people would no longer be at odds with each other, and Lu Zhengdong and Lin Donghe also came out.

  "I've done all sorts of hard labor like pulling oxen, catching pigs and hauling grain, but I haven't seen anyone hang themselves yet, do you believe me now?"

  Lin Donghe couldn't wait to say as soon as he went out.

  Lu Zhengdong was in high spirits and smiled:

  "Fortunately, if it weren't for Donghe sister's reminder, the truth wouldn't have been revealed so quickly. This time, Donghe sister has made a great contribution..."

  Lin Donghe felt a bit embarrassed when he said that:

  "I'm not capable of doing such things, it's all you who can handle them. This kind of thing can be figured out in no time..."

  Lin Donghe's eyes sparkled with stars, and he obviously admired him for being able to investigate the truth.

  Lu Zhengdong didn't say a word, this matter could be solved thanks to the cat in Dong Yangsheng's house. He had been thinking about it for over 20 years and couldn't solve the mystery, but in the end, it was so simple that the truth came out. Lu Zhengdong also had an unspeakable feeling in his heart...

  Lu Zhengdong thought for a long time, raised his head, and let out a long sigh of pent-up breath, as if the frustration of the past twenty years had been released: No matter what, things finally have an outcome, he can now move on with ease...
