Huang Weining corrected him, "The doctor shouldn't be wrong. My grandfather should have died of respiratory failure, but according to our previous analysis, the cause of his inability to breathe was most likely not lung cancer, but something else."
Li Rui became excited and said, "Then we should start investigating the real cause of my brother's death now?" Huang Weining frowned and said, "How do we investigate?" Li Rui whispered, "It's very simple, we'll conduct an autopsy! My brother died peacefully, and it didn't look like he was killed by external force. Then it's very likely that he was drugged. I've seen this kind of plot in Hong Kong and Taiwan dramas more than a hundred times. " Huang Weining said, "But … my grandfather is about to be taken to the funeral parlor, how can we conduct an autopsy? Besides, my father and uncle will definitely not agree to it. "
Chinese people were still relatively traditional. They respected the dead very much, and this was reflected in how they treated the bodies of their loved ones. They would not touch them easily, nor would they damage them, let alone conduct an autopsy. Who would want their loved ones to suffer the cruel sin of being disemboweled after their death? Therefore, the majority of Chinese people found it very difficult to accept this. Many people even knew that their loved ones had died an unnatural death, and the police needed to conduct an autopsy to find out the cause of death, but they still resisted. Li Rui was so focused on investigating the real cause of Huang Xinghua's death that he neglected this point.
The two of them were speechless, and were worried about what to do next.
At this moment, Li Rui's phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was Zhuang Haixia calling. He hurriedly answered and said, "Hello, my brother passed away. I rushed back to Qingyang City in the middle of the night and didn't have time to say goodbye to you. I'm sorry, I'll apologize to you later." Zhuang Haixia said gently, "It's okay, I'm not going to criticize you. An Ying already told me. I just want to comfort you. My condolences." Li Rui said, "Okay, I got it. Thank you."
Zhuang Haixia knew that he was grieving, so he didn't say much to him and hung up the phone.
Li Rui looked up at Huang Weining and said firmly, "If we don't do an autopsy, we won't be able to determine the real cause of my brother's death, and we won't be able to investigate further. Therefore, I think we should find a way to do an autopsy and do our best to check the suspicious points of my brother's body. If he was killed by someone, we must find the culprit and bring them to justice. Otherwise, we would be letting down the love and care he had for us, and his spirit in heaven would not be able to rest in peace. "
Huang Weining's expression became very awkward. After a while, she asked tentatively, "I'll discuss it with my father and see if he agrees." Li Rui thought for a while and said, "Before we get the evidence to prove that my brother was killed, it's best not to let too many people know about our thoughts. Otherwise, it might alert the enemy." Huang Weining pursed her lips and said, "But if my father and brothers don't agree, we can't do an autopsy for my grandfather." Li Rui frowned and thought for a while before saying, "Why don't we do this for now? I'll think of a way."
Huang Weining said, "That's good too. I'll also talk to my father in private and see his attitude towards these suspicious points." Li Rui said, "Don't say anything about Liang Gen, and don't say that I said it." Huang Weining nodded and said, "I know. I'll only say what the Xie siblings deduced and what I found." Li Rui nodded and said, "Okay. By the way, I still don't know who your father is?" Huang Weining said, "Huang Zhishan." Li Rui said, "Your father's temperament is gentle, just like his name, he is trustworthy. You can tell him more, maybe he will discover something." Huang Weining said, "Okay, I will."
The two said goodbye in the woods. After Li Rui watched Huang Weining leave, he called Qingman and told her what happened in the past two days. Qingman was shocked when she heard that Huang Xinghua had suddenly passed away. She was very sorry that she couldn't visit him before he passed away. Li Rui didn't tell her that Huang Xinghua's death was abnormal. He didn't want her to think too much. He told her that in the next few days, he would be participating in the funeral and might not come home regularly. He told her to eat and sleep as usual and not to wait for him. The two talked about Sun Shuqin's surgery for a while and ended the call quickly.
Li Rui didn't put away his phone. Instead, he called Zhou Yuansong, the director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau. He said after the call was answered, "Director Zhou, I've been accompanying the patriotic overseas Chinese, Huang Xinghua, to investigate investments in the city. This is also an important political task that the Secretary and the Mayor attach great importance to. But last night, Huang Xinghua suddenly passed away. His family doctor said that it was caused by lung cancer, but I suspect that he might have been murdered. Unfortunately, I don't have any evidence. Can I trouble you to find an expert in autopsy from the Municipal Public Security Bureau? I want to ask him some questions. Also, if necessary, I need him to help me find out the truth and the murderer. "
Zhou Yuansong had the demeanor of a director. He didn't agree but didn't refuse either. Instead, he asked, "Xiao Rui, can you tell me first? Why do you suspect that he was murdered and not caused by lung cancer? What do you rely on to refute the family doctor's statement? "
Li Rui briefly explained a few suspicious points. He tried to save time and let Zhou Yuansong understand that his suspicions were well-founded.
Zhou Yuansong thought for a while and asked again, "Does the Secretary know about this?" Li Rui answered honestly, "He doesn't know yet. I mainly want to find some evidence before I start a full-scale investigation. Of course, I'll definitely report it to the Secretary when the time comes." Zhou Yuansong said, "I don't mean anything by asking this. I'm not questioning Xiao Rui for using your power to act recklessly. I'm just trying to protect you. After all, this is an internal matter of their family. Moreover, Huang Xinghua is an overseas Chinese who came to invest in our city. Whether you find out the truth or not, it won't change the fact. But it's very likely that the children of the Huang family will resent you.
It'll be very troublesome. "Li Rui said," I understand. I know Director Zhou is doing this for my own good. Thank you. I'm just speculating now. Even if I do take action, I'll do it secretly and won't let outsiders know. Don't worry. "Zhou Yuansong said," Okay, then I'll help you find him. After I find him, I'll listen to your orders. "Li Rui said," Thank you so much. "Zhou Yuansong smiled and said," You're welcome. "
After waiting for about ten minutes, Li Rui received a call from an unfamiliar man. The other party said that his surname was Liu and that he was a forensic doctor working at the Municipal Public Security Bureau's Forensic Identification Center. He asked if Li Rui needed any help.
Li Rui said, "Are you busy now? If not, can you come to the Qingyang Hotel and we can talk face to face?" The man replied that he wasn't busy and said that he would rush over immediately. He asked Li Rui to wait for a while and call him when he arrived.
Li Rui walked out of the forest and went to the front building. He wanted to ask about Xie Peilan. The brother and sister were slandered. The brother Duzhong was still fine and knew how to complain on the phone. The sister, Pei Lan, on the other hand, had her teeth knocked out and blood swallowed. She could only swallow her anger and cry. This only made her mood worse. Therefore, Li Rui felt that it was necessary to comfort her.
In the main building, Li Rui saw the brother and sister. They were in Xie Peilan's room. Xie Duzhong was walking around in the room and nagging about something. He seemed to be restless. Xie Peilan was sitting by the bed with her eyes red. She didn't say a word. The door was open. It seemed that Xie Duzhong had just entered the room. Otherwise, Li Rui wouldn't be able to see the scene in the room.
"Pei Lan, Duzhong, I'm back!"
When Li Rui greeted them, he had already walked to Xie Peilan. She was like an orchid that had been tortured by hailstones. Her face was cold with tears and her spirit was dispirited. He felt pity for her and said softly, "Don't take my brother's death to heart. You and Duzhong are innocent. On the contrary, you guys have sacrificed a lot. Don't worry, I'll definitely fight for you guys. "
When Xie Peilan saw that he had returned, she was both surprised and happy. After hearing his words, she couldn't help but cry again. She sobbed and said, "I … I didn't expect that Elder Huang would pass away so soon. I thought … I thought that under our careful treatment, he would at least be able to live for another year. I was confident, really …"
Li Ruixin sighed secretly. He glanced at the tissue box on the bedside table. He walked over and took out two tissues. He turned around and handed them to Xie Peilan. He said softly, "Don't cry, Pei Lan. Wipe your tears. You and Duzhong have sacrificed a lot for Mr. Huang. Anyone with eyes knows that. Don't pay attention to the arguments of some villains. Don't lower yourself to their level. Justice is in everyone's heart! "
Xie Duzhong said angrily, "Mr. Huang's son wasn't in Qingyang before. He didn't know anything and blamed me and my sister. Liang Gen, who accompanied Mr. Huang all day and watched over our treatment, also slandered us. I'm so angry. In my opinion, he's just trying to shirk the responsibility. He wants to push the responsibility of not taking care of Mr. Huang to me and my sister. He wants us to be the scapegoat. "
Li Rui walked over and patted his shoulder. He said, "Duzhong, you don't have to be so angry. Just watch from the side. I'll prove your innocence with Pei Lan anyway. I might not be free at noon. If I'm free at night, I'll treat you two to dinner. We can drink a few cups and you'll feel better. "
Xie Duzhong nodded. "Okay. Actually, my sister is already disheartened. She wanted to go back to Huangzhou City just now. I persuaded her not to. If she really left now, it would make us look guilty. Don't you think so? "
