A Simple Divination, Confession And Punishment

76

The Mu family case ended with the death of Li Guizhi.

　　Daxi Daily was the first to report the Mu family incident and published the crimes committed by Mu Xingwang. The Ying Zhihe incident came into the public eye, and public opinion continued to spread, with increasing influence.

　　Although Ying Zhihe has died, she has come back into the public eye because of the murder of three people in the Mu family. Public opinion urges the Ying Zhihe case to be re-investigated, and finally several bad apples are caught.

　　When the bad apples were found, it caused a great shock in Hong Kong, and the public's trust in the government dropped sharply.

　　In order to restore its credibility, the Public Relations Department of the Kowloon Police Station held a press conference to review the situation to the public.

　　The morning sun shines into the serious crime team's office through the window. The long desk is covered with victims' information. In the corner, the green fig tree stretches out its small leaves, showing its most beautiful posture towards the sun.

　　Zhou Fengxu was writing a case closing report at his desk, with a cup of milk and two eggs next to the report.

　　"Tell me, does Mr. Mu deserve to die?" Shi Boren was playing banana toss with his legs crossed, and a newspaper was spread out on the table.

　　"If... we negotiate, will it affect my leather suit?" Gan Yizu mentioned the black jacket he was wearing, even though civilians rarely wore military uniforms.

　　"Uncle Zhong, what are you talking about?" Shi Boren looked towards the corner.

　　Luo Qizhong sipped fresh milk, cracked the egg along the table and slowly peeled the shell, "Mu Kuan used his power to cover up his son's crime, causing Ying Zhihe to jump off the building and die. In the end, dying under Li Guizhi's knife can be considered paying off his debt."

　　Shi Boren sarcastically said, "I wonder if Mu Kuan regretted what he did when he died."

　　Chu Yuening happened to hear the last sentence when she opened the door with the bag of sugar water. She smiled slightly, "Talking about regret is disgusting."

　　Until his death, Mu Kuan only regretted not knowing in advance that Mu Xingwang was not his biological son.

　　But she knew people like Mu Kuan too well.

　　Even if he knew the truth at that time, he would still choose to keep it for the sake of his own reputation, and then abandon Mu Xingwang.

　　"That makes sense. People like this don't deserve sympathy."

　　The banana was thrown into the air and placed on the table. Shi Boren stood up to help carry the sugar water, and as soon as it was placed on the table, he opened the bag with a drooling expression.

　　"How did Ning Ning know that I wanted to eat sweet soup? Did she bring it to me on purpose?"

　　Luo Qizhong leaned over and asked, "Was the sweet soup from Chu's last time?"

　　"Yeah." Shi Boren handed him one, "It tastes good, right?"

　　"It's really good." Luo Qizhong took the sugar water with a smile and gave Chu Yuening a thumbs up. "Uncle Zhong has been in Hong Kong for decades, and he has tasted sugar water from dozens of time-honored brands. Chu's sugar water is just one word, delicious!"

　　Chu Yuening was also happy to be praised, her eyebrows curved and her eyes seemed to be filled with tears, "Thank you for the affirmation, you can come in anytime next time you pass by my shop."
