Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again

Chapter 1981: Chapter 1979: Seeing the Light of Day Again

The Ice Arrow Talisman turns a talisman into ice, and this talisman then silently transforms the ice into a faint breath.

With this, the soil loosens, making excavation much faster, but even so, it still took two hours.

Perhaps because there is injustice here, even the sky is overcast. Previously, although the temperature wasn’t high, the sunlight was always bright and cheerful, but today, it’s not only cold but also blowing a north wind, and the sky is filled with dark clouds.

The moment Chen Cheng’s skeleton was unearthed, large snowflakes began to fall from the sky, and in an instant, both trees and people were covered with a layer of white.

And at this moment, everyone, upon seeing that skeletal frame, couldn’t help but look up at the falling snowflakes and the gloomy sky.

Although they all believe in science, at this moment, it seems everyone holds a shared belief: perhaps Chen Cheng really was wronged, perhaps this skeleton really is his, but to be sure, they need to take it back to the police station for scientific identification.

After collecting all the necessary evidence, these people left.

Chen Lanxiu also went back to the police station with Officer Zheng.

The next step is to determine as quickly as possible whether this skeleton is indeed Chen Cheng’s.

With the technical support provided by Qin Yize, it only took five hours to confirm that this skeleton is indeed Chen Cheng’s.

Soon after, the news spread like wildfire throughout the county.

The old chemical plant is now privately contracted, but Wang You remains the head of the security department here because the person who contracted the plant is his relative, so naturally, the news reached here first.

Wang You was holding a newspaper, leisurely sipping tea, his office well-furnished, and his work quite leisurely. Being a leader, he could just give orders verbally, and there would be plenty of people to do the work for him. Also, he is the first to know about any news, such as this one.

Upon hearing it, the teacup in his hand suddenly fell to the ground with a clang.

The tea was hot, instantly soaking his cotton shoes.

Although his feet weren’t burned, his subordinate was startled by Wang You’s unusual behavior. He was young and didn’t know much about what happened back then, but he paid attention because the owner of the skeleton was the treasurer of the chemical plant twenty years ago.

When the news came, it’s said that the old employees of the plant were buzzing with discussions about it. Naturally, he needed to report this news to his boss, as it should also be part of his responsibilities.

Little did he expect that he would shock his leader like this, and then he saw Wang You bend down to pick up the teacup, noticing that Wang You’s hands were trembling. He looked at his leader in confusion, and Wang You, with an ashen face, waved him away.

The young subordinate didn’t quite understand until he asked an older employee. Only then did he learn that his leader used to ride in the same vehicle as the deceased Chen Cheng. At that time, he was an officer in the security department, and it’s said that he was stabbed twice by Chen Cheng, while another person was also seriously injured.

So the question arises: the two were injured, and then Chen Cheng fled with the money, but who killed Chen Cheng and buried him not far from the crime scene?

At this moment, Jiang Jianjun had just returned from a business trip. Upon hearing the news, his heart pounded frenetically, and he turned pale. He hurriedly locked himself in his study, making phone calls to someone, and a few hours later, he instructed his subordinates to book a ticket for him to go abroad for a business trip.

But he never expected that two police officers would be waiting for him at the door.

As one of the people involved in the case back then, whether he was a victim or otherwise, now that Chen Cheng’s remains have been found near the scene of the incident, it naturally follows that the two so-called victims and eyewitnesses must go to the police station to cooperate with the investigation.

Wang You was also invited by the police officers to cooperate with the investigation. Considering that these two people are not suspects at the moment, they were treated courteously.

However, Officer Zheng felt something was amiss because the expressions on the faces of these two betrayed their emotions. The news was actually released by Officer Zheng himself, and it was done deliberately.

Because Xiuxiu secretly told him that in her dream, her father confessed that it was these two who killed him.

How they did it, what method they used, how they fabricated the wounds to appear as victims, seemed as clear as day in his mind, as if reliving the past scene.

Based on his years of experience, this truly seemed like the most authentic crime scene. Though lacking evidence, in his heart, these two were the prime suspects.

After all, if Chen Cheng had stabbed them, then who killed Chen Cheng and buried him not far from the scene?

There was no mention in their testimonies of a fourth person being present, so this was one of the major points of suspicion. Naturally, these two would never admit to having done it themselves, so what he needed to do was find evidence.

Unexpectedly, they were just cooperating with an investigation, and both were kept in separate rooms, asked just some relevant questions, and they were supposed to be let out after half an hour, but surprisingly within that half an hour, both confessed.

It’s actually quite simple, but for ordinary people, it seems almost insurmountable. At that time, Gu Qiaoqiao and Ling Nan had appeared with Chen Cheng in front of Wang You.

Since Chen Cheng died twenty years ago, naturally, his appearance was as it was twenty years ago. Due to the Spiritual Energy’s nourishment these days, his body seemed almost like a real person. When enemies meet, anger flares; Chen Cheng rushed forward, and although he couldn’t strangle Wang You, his words and actions broke Wang You’s already unsettled mind completely.

To be absolutely sure, Gu Junbai, who stayed in the car, also taught Gu Qiaoqiao how to draw a Truth Talisman.

As the name suggests, once this talisman is placed on a person, they will confess everything truthfully upon questioning.

Officer Zheng was the one taking Wang You’s statement; he personally witnessed Wang You’s panic and fear. If he wasn’t mistaken, then what Xiuxiu said about Chen Cheng’s Spiritual Body being present in this room was true.

Although he also felt a chill run down his spine, he forced himself to remain calm. Naturally, during the recording, he wasn’t alone, with two young officers beside him, both equally shocked by Wang You’s tearful and frightened demeanor.

He was sitting on the chair initially, but by this point, he was kneeling on the floor, facing a direction in the empty air, repeatedly pleading, "...I was wrong, I was wrong, it was Jiang Jianjun who seduced me, originally I didn’t want to do it, please spare me, I will give all my money to your family, please spare me... I beg you to spare me..."
