Siheyuan: After traveling through time, who can still be an honest person?

"When did you find out?" Cao Yue asked.

In fact, before Yan Bugui came, he vaguely heard screams of fear coming from the central courtyard, but he was too lazy to check.

Because Lou Xiao'e had just left, Cao Yue planned to take a nap.

"Old Yi got up early to go to the toilet. He opened the door and tripped over something. When he got up, he saw a deaf old lady lying at the door of his house, frozen to death..."

Yan Bugui looked pale and frightened.

"The deaf old lady is going to stab Yi Zhonghai before she dies."

Cao Yue was secretly awed.

Fortunately, I reconciled with the deaf old lady.

Otherwise, she might die at her own door.

"Chief Cao, please go and take a look. Old Yi's wife fainted out of fright, and Old Yi is almost scared to death." Yan Bugui urged.

Cao Yue left quickly and stopped at the door of the deaf old lady's house. He found that the door of the deaf old lady's room was half open.

This old lady has a strong will.

Cao Yue guessed that the deaf old lady must have crawled out of the house.

After leaving the backyard, the two arrived at the middle yard. The neighbors who heard the noise had surrounded Yi Zhonghai's house.

"Everyone is afraid to make way, Chief Cao is here."

Yan Bugui pushed the crowd aside and walked over quickly with Cao Yue.

Cao Yue walked forward to check, and saw the deaf old lady, wearing brand new, bright cotton-padded clothes and trousers, lying quietly at the door, looking lifeless.

Cao Yue moved closer and took a closer look.

Even though he usually prided himself on being brave, at this moment he still felt a chill rising up his spine and his whole body went cold.

The deaf old woman's chin was resting on the ground, her whole face facing the door, and there was a mysterious death smile on the corner of her mouth.

Yi Zhonghai leaned against the door frame, his face as pale as paper, his eyes blank and lifeless, no one knew what he was thinking.

Shazhu is here too.

He squatted beside the body of the deaf old woman with a dazed look on his face, looking as if he had lost his soul.

Cao Yue took a deep breath, looked at Yan Bugui and said:

"Find someone to go to the police station right away."

If a homicide occurs, it must be reported.

"it is good."

Yan Bugui turned around and looked around, passing by his three sons, and just happened to see Liu Haizhong and the two brothers Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu coming over.

"Liu Guangtian, go to the police station and report the case immediately. Say someone was killed in our hospital."

"I……"

Liu Guangtian stepped back, obviously reluctant.

"It's you, go quickly." Yan Bugui gave the order with the authority of a manager.

Liu Guangtian asked his father Liu Haizhong for help, but Liu Haizhong had a cold face and didn't say anything, so Liu Guangtian could only agree reluctantly.

Cao Yue looked around and said, "Everyone, pay attention. Before the police arrive, don't disrupt the scene. Everyone, step back."

"That's right, Silly Zhu, you get up first."

Yan Bugui said that he was going to pull Shazhu.

Sha Zhu stood up expressionlessly, looked at the deaf old lady blankly, and suddenly staggered back home.

After half an hour.

An older policeman and two younger policemen hurried over.

No matter what era, homicide cases are major cases.

The older policeman shook hands with Cao Yue with a serious expression and introduced himself:

"Hello, Deputy Section Chief Cao, I am Wu Xiangdong, the deputy director of the police station."

"Hello, Deputy Chief Wu."

Without much greeting, Wu Xiangdong went straight to the body of the deaf old lady and asked about some situations.

Cao Yue and Yan Bugui told everything they knew.

Wu Xiangdong asked Yi Zhonghai a few more questions, then carefully inspected the scene and followed the traces all the way to the deaf old lady's home.

An hour later.

Wu Xiangdong pulled Cao Yue aside.

"After our preliminary examination and based on the deceased's condition before his death, I suspect that the deceased committed suicide."

"Of course, the specific cause of death requires further autopsy."

As the managers, Cao Yue and Yan Bugui naturally had to go along to assist in the investigation.

As for Yi Zhonghai, he also had to go to the police station because he wanted to find out why the deaf old lady died at his doorstep.

It was not until the afternoon of that day that Cao Yue obtained the specific autopsy information.

It turned out that the deaf old lady had taken a large amount of sleeping pills before her death.

So she crawled out with the determination to die.

As for why he chose to die in front of Yi Zhonghai's door, no one knows except the person involved.

Some people speculated that the deaf old lady regretted taking the medicine, so she crawled to Yi Zhonghai's house for help.

But on second thought, it doesn't seem right.

There are other residents in the backyard, so why would the deaf old lady go so far to ask for help?

The most puzzling thing is the mysterious smile of the deaf old woman before her death.

It seems to have a sense of liberation.

In the end, the deaf old lady was still determined to have committed suicide.

Because of the will, Cao Yue also made a special explanation.

He felt sorry for the deaf old lady who had just recovered from her illness, so he sent her meat and vegetables for two days. He didn't expect that the deaf old lady would give him the house.

The police and Director Wang from the street office had no doubts either.

Because the will was made by the deaf old lady who went to Director Wang in person.

I didn't notice anything unusual at the time.

After Cao Yue and Yan Bugui returned to the courtyard, Yan Bugui would secretly glance at Cao Yue from time to time, his eyes full of envy and jealousy.

Nowadays, houses in Beijing are extremely scarce and in short supply.

Many families are crowded into small houses of just over ten square meters, with more than a dozen people having to live together in a cramped environment.

However, Cao Yue and Su Rong own five rooms, which is already enviable, and now they get an extra house for free.

When Yan Bugui thought about the situation at home, he couldn't help feeling regretful.

If he had known this would happen, he should have gritted his teeth and treated the deaf old lady to a good meal for two days.

Maybe in that case, the deaf old lady will eventually leave the house to him!

Unfortunately, it's too late to regret now.

However, the one who suffered the most was probably Yi Zhonghai.

Yan Bugui thought to himself, Yi Zhonghai served the deaf old lady for so many years, but in the end he got nothing. Not only that, but he was also thrown dirty water on him after her death. It was really heartbreaking!

This is retribution!

Yan Bugui guessed that the deaf old lady went to Yi Zhonghai's house to die, obviously to take revenge on him.

Yi Zhonghai had a gloomy face and walked into the central courtyard.

When I reached the door, I suddenly remembered that the deaf old lady died here, and a chill suddenly ran through the soles of my feet.

He quickly opened the door and rushed into the room.

After entering the living room, Shazhu sat there like a wooden chicken, motionless, as if he had turned into a sculpture.

"Old Yi, what happened?" An old lady looked panicked, her face as pale as paper, and she staggered out from the inner room.

Yi Zhonghai looked at Sha Zhu silently, sighed deeply, and said in a heavy tone:

"After a detailed investigation, the police have found out the truth. The old lady took a large amount of sleeping pills before she died."

"She...why did she choose such a desperate path?" The old lady's tears burst out like a flood.

Yi Zhonghai pretended to be sad and sighed hypocritically: "The old lady is worried that she will become a burden to us, so... Alas!"

"Do you know? In fact, the old lady had already made a will. She left all her property, including the house, to Cao Yue."

"what?"

This sentence was like a bolt from the blue, leaving the aunt stunned with astonishment.

Sha Zhu was also extremely shocked. He looked at Yi Zhonghai in disbelief.

"Zhu Zi, were you the one who carried the old lady to the neighborhood office the day before yesterday?"

Yi Zhonghai slowly sat down next to Sha Zhu and asked softly.

Sha Zhu nodded blankly, indicating that it was true.

At this moment, Sha Zhu's heart was full of confusion and puzzlement.

He never expected that the deaf old lady would leave the house to Cao Yue, her enemy, instead of him, her dearest grandson.

This sudden change left him completely at a loss.
