Chapter 47 Unexpected Discovery
Is it for money, or something else?
The moment Xiang Yuntian saw the diamond ring, he also thought of this.
His thoughts raced, lost in speculation. His mind seemed to drift back decades, to a time when the old man might not have hidden the money himself.
Thinking about it this way, it is highly likely that someone killed him for money.
But how should we explain the act of elder abuse?
Is this more like a form of revenge?
For a moment, Xiang Yuntian racked his brains, but he still couldn't figure it out. He raised his right hand, rested his forehead on his thumb, and pondered deeply.
After thinking for a long time, he still had no clue.
Seeing him so troubled, Bai Mengfei worried that he would get stuck in a rut, so she stepped forward and said, "Don't think about it for now."
However, Xiang Yuntian was a persistent person.
"No, no, no." He raised his right hand, interrupting Bai Mengfei. "Think about it carefully."
"What are you thinking about?" Bai Mengfei asked.
"There must be someone among them who has been lurking around the old man all along, but why can't we find them?"
To this, Bai Mengfei only said one sentence: "The net of Heaven is vast, and though its meshes are wide, nothing escapes it."
Fanghua couldn't stand the pungent smell in the room any longer, so she turned to leave, leaving only the words, "You can discuss it here slowly, I'm leaving first."
After saying that, she covered her nose and hurriedly turned to leave.
Bai Mengfei and Xiang Yuntian glanced at her but said nothing.
After watching Fanghua leave, Bai Mengfei turned around and continued her investigation inside the house. She entered the old woman's bedroom and subconsciously examined the bed and other areas carefully.
Just as she was about to leave, her foot accidentally touched the dirty carpet. Instantly, a flash of gold appeared beneath the carpet.
This light naturally attracted Bai Mengfei's attention.
Just then, Xiang Yuntian walked in.
He noticed that the height of this room was different from that of the living room outside. A thought struck him, and he guessed that something might be hidden underneath. So he quickly walked in.
"Have you noticed..."
Before Xiang Yuntian could finish speaking, Bai Mengfei had already squatted down, completely disregarding the dirt.
She gently lifted the carpet and discovered that it was covered in gold!
She looked up in surprise at Xiang Yuntian.
Xiang Yuntian picked up one of the pieces to examine it, and then discovered that they were all gold.
The murderer must have killed people for these reasons.
However, the amount of gold was not large, only thirteen pieces in total.
“The truth is now very clear.” Xiang Yuntian held the gold piece, looking at Bai Mengfei’s face, which was gleaming in the golden light, and said, “It was definitely a murder for money, and the murderer must know the old man.”
"But the old man has been living alone for years, almost completely isolated. Where are we supposed to find out where the murderer is?"
Bai Mengfei's words made a lot of sense to Xiang Yuntian.
After pondering for a moment, Xiang Yuntian made a decision: "The gold is still here. That person is definitely not willing to give up and will definitely come back to look for it."
“That’s not necessarily true.” Bai Mengfei stood up. “Think about it, the murderer might have accidentally killed the old man by using excessive force. He might be hiding now.”
Xiang Yuntian also stood up, agreeing with Bai Mengfei's assessment.
Finding a murderer in a vast sea of people is no easy task.
However, now that the two have discovered the gold and reported it, Xiang Yuntian will surely be rewarded.
So Bai Mengfei suggested, "How about this, let's report the gold first, and then make further plans."
Xiang Yuntian agreed, since it was indeed unsafe to leave those thirteen pieces of gold here.
He found a bag, put the gold in it, and prepared to take it back to the police station to hand it over to Captain Zhao.
As soon as they stepped outside, Fanghua saw the golden light shining from the bag and asked curiously, "What's in the bag?"
“Evidence,” Xiang Yuntian replied.
Bai Mengfei made an even more valuable deduction: "The old man may have had gold teeth before his death, which were removed by the murderer after his death."
As they spoke, the two got into the car.
Unwittingly, Bai Mengfei saw a middle-aged woman, over forty years old, sitting alone by the garden downstairs.
Seeing her restless appearance and the way her eyes kept glancing at the old man's house, Bai Mengfei immediately found it suspicious.
Love killing?
To deceive someone's feelings for money, and then murder them for their wealth?
In an instant, many thoughts flashed through Bai Mengfei's mind.
After figuring it out, she quickly walked towards the woman.
She walked quickly, and it was clear she was heading towards the woman, which immediately caught the woman's attention.
The woman turned her head and looked at him, her eyes filled with panic.
Seeing Bai Mengfei getting closer and closer, she simply stood up, turned around and left.
Xiang Yuntian was worried that Bai Mengfei was in danger, so he hurriedly got out of the car after getting in.
To find out if this woman was the culprit and to see if she was guilty, Bai Mengfei shouted, "Stop! Don't run!"
Upon hearing this, the woman turned and ran.
Bai Mengfei immediately took off and tried her best to catch up.
Xiang Yuntian hurriedly chased after her, fearing that Bai Mengfei might encounter some misfortune.
Fanghua couldn't catch up, so she could only stay by the car and watch the gold inside.
She thought to herself that if she took the bag of gold back, the credit would be hers.
In the blink of an eye, Bai Mengfei had chased the woman for several blocks.
Just as Bai Mengfei was about to catch up with the woman at the corner, a stick came hurtling towards her. Instantly, her eyes widened, and her breath seemed to stop.
Am I going to die again?
If I die again this time, I'm afraid I won't be so lucky to be resurrected.
Just as she was filled with terror, someone suddenly rushed over from the side.
A strong arm pulled her back, while at the same time, the man raised his other arm high.
With a loud "crack," the wooden stick struck Xiang Yuntian's arm and broke in two.
"what!"
Xiang Yuntian cried out in pain.
Bai Mengfei then came to her senses and saw that there was a big man next to the woman.
This big guy looks to be in his thirties.
Xiang Yuntian covered his injured right hand with his left hand, looking at the suspicious woman in horror, and then at the big man.
His arm was injured, and he was feeling somewhat powerless at the moment.
To protect Bai Mengfei's safety, he turned to her and said, "You go first, leave this to me."
Bai Mengfei knew in her heart that although Xiang Yuntian was intelligent, he was just a weak scholar and no match for them. She at least knew some self-defense techniques, so she refused to leave.
Seeing the large man approaching step by step, Bai Mengfei stepped forward.
But her body was too delicate and small. The big man grabbed her collar with his right hand and lifted her up high in an instant.
"Let her go and get out!"
Upon seeing this, Xiang Yuntian disregarded the pain in his arm and rushed over.
He used his body to shove the big guy aside, and the big guy fell directly to the ground.
