Forensic Doctor: Finding the Way Back to the Mystery of Ancient Realms

Chapter 59: Dark Moon Cliff Mystery, the Truth Slowly Revealed

The night poured down over S City like thick ink, the moonlight was sparse, and the stars were hidden. Xu Youran and Situ Han stood at the entrance of Dark Moon Cliff, looking at the deep and bottomless valley, their hearts filled with awe for unknown challenges and desire for the truth. They knew that this would be a long and difficult journey, but in order to uncover the truth of the S City massacre, they had no choice.

Stepping into the Dark Moon Cliff, the two carefully avoided the traps and mechanisms along the way, and finally came to the entrance of the secret room covered by a huge rock. Pushing open the heavy stone door, an ancient and old atmosphere hit them in the face, as if they had instantly traveled back to the turbulent Republic of China era.

In the secret room, the candlelight flickered, and the antique treasures shone with an alluring luster under the weak light. However, Xu Youran and Situ Han's eyes were not attracted by these treasures. Their attention was completely focused on those yellowed ancient books. These ancient books might hide the answers they have been looking for for a long time.

Xu Youran flipped through the ancient book quietly, her eyes jumping between the lines, looking for clues related to the case. Suddenly, her finger stopped on a yellowed page, which recorded a story about the grievances and hatreds of an ancient family in S City.

"Look here, it turns out that the root cause of the family annihilation case is here..." Xu Youran's voice trembled slightly, obviously shocked by the contents of the ancient book.

In order to verify the records in the ancient books, Xu Youran and Situ Han decided to leave the secret room and go to City S to find possible insiders. They first went to the residence of the victim's family, hoping to get more information through their oral statements.

The victims' families had obviously not yet recovered from the pain of losing their loved ones, and their eyes were filled with sadness and anger. Facing Xu Youran and Situ Han's inquiries, although they were wary, they eventually slowly told the dusty history.

"Our ancestors had an irreconcilable feud with that family, but we all thought that the grudge had long since disappeared with the passage of time." An elderly family member of the victim said in tears, "I didn't expect them to be so cruel that they would not even let go of innocent descendants."

Through the oral accounts of the victims' families, Xu Youran and Situ Han gradually pieced together the outline of the whole incident. They realized that this was not just a simple case of family annihilation, but a tragedy caused by decades of grievances between two families.

In order to track down the real murderer, they decided to go to the S City Police Station to seek help from the police. In the police station, they met Captain Li, a representative of the S City Police. Captain Li is an experienced old policeman who has heard of this case and has been investigating it secretly.

"You're finally here." Captain Li's eyes flashed with surprise when he saw Xu Youran and Situ Han. "I've been waiting for you because I have some important clues to tell you."

It turns out that Captain Li discovered a suspicious person during the investigation - Su Wanqing's adoptive father, Mr. Su. Although Mr. Su is a prominent family in S City on the surface, he has close ties with multiple criminal organizations in private. More importantly, he has a deep grudge with the victim's family and is very likely the mastermind behind the murder.

After learning this clue, Xu Youran and Situ Han immediately started tracking down Mr. Su. However, when they found Mr. Su, they found that he had committed suicide by taking poison and left a suicide note.

In his suicide note, Mr. Su confessed his crimes and regrets over the years. He admitted that he was one of the masterminds behind the murder, but also said that he was blinded by hatred and did such a cruel thing.

"My whole life, I have been trapped by hatred." The handwriting of Mr. Su's suicide note was sloppy and messy. "I originally thought that revenge would bring me happiness, but in the end I found that it was just endless pain and torture. I hope you can stop Su Wanqing from making further mistakes..."

After reading the suicide note, Xu Youran and Situ Han felt extremely heavy. They realized that although Su Wanqing was a pawn driven by hatred, she was also one of the victims in this tragedy. However, in order to maintain justice and the dignity of the law, they must continue to track down Su Wanqing's whereabouts.

After a difficult pursuit and fight, Xu Youran and Situ Han finally found Su Wanqing in an abandoned warehouse. At this time, Su Wanqing had fallen into a state of madness, holding a dagger, vowing to die with her enemy.

"Stop it! Su Wanqing!" Xu Youran shouted, "Your hatred will only hurt more people!"

However, Su Wanqing seemed not to hear her cry and continued to wave the dagger wildly. At this moment, Situ Han quickly rushed forward and used all his strength to snatch the dagger from Su Wanqing's hand.

Under Situ Han's strong control, Su Wanqing finally regained her sanity. She looked at the two people who gave everything for the truth, and mixed emotions surged in her heart.

Su Wanqing's eyes gradually turned from crazy to empty, and then slowly focused on Xu Youran and Situ Han's faces. Her eyes were red, and tears were rolling in her eyes, but they never fell. She took a deep breath, as if she wanted to suppress all her emotions in her heart.

"Are you... here to arrest me?" Su Wanqing's voice was hoarse and trembling, with a hint of imperceptible despair.

Xu Youran shook her head slightly, her eyes full of sympathy and understanding. "No, we are here to stop you from making the same mistakes you did. Hatred can't solve any problems, it will only cause you and more people to fall into endless pain."

Situ Han also stepped forward, his tone firm but gentle. "Su Wanqing, your life should not be defined by hatred. You still have a chance to start over, for yourself and for those innocent people."

Su Wanqing's body trembled slightly when she heard this. She lowered her head and remained silent for a long time, as if she was struggling fiercely in her heart. Finally, she slowly raised her head, with a complex light flashing in her eyes.

"I... I don't know what to do." Su Wanqing's voice choked, "I have lost too much, including my closest people. Now I am like a puppet driven by hatred, and I can't find my direction at all."

Xu Youran walked forward and gently held Su Wanqing's hand. "We will help you find the direction. But first, you need to let go of the hatred in your heart, face reality, and accept the facts that can no longer be changed."

Situ Han also added: "Moreover, we need your help to thoroughly uncover the truth of this case. Only when the truth comes to light can all the innocent people rest in peace."

Su Wanqing looked at the sincere eyes of the two people, and a warm current surged in her heart. She nodded slowly, as if she had made an important decision.

"Okay... I'm willing to cooperate with you. But please give me some time to sort out my emotions."

Xu Youran and Situ Han smiled at each other. They knew that this would be the closest step they would get to the truth.

In the following days, Su Wanqing gradually walked out of the shadow of hatred with the help of Xu Youran and Situ Han. She began to actively cooperate with the police investigation and provided a series of key clues. As the investigation deepened, a more complex and shocking truth gradually surfaced.

However, when everything seemed to be settled, a sudden piece of news broke the peace. A female corpse was found in the bathtub in Room 520 of the S City Hotel. The cause of death was strikingly similar to the previous case. This news was like a heavy bomb, causing an uproar in S City.

Xu Youran and Situ Han rushed to the scene immediately after hearing the news. They knew that this was not just a simple murder case, but also a huge challenge to their previous investigation. In this new challenge, they will once again uncover a darker and more complicated secret...
