Chapter 12 Stepmother!

Seeing someone with such an expression appear, Chen Xiao subconsciously put his arm around Lin Xi's shoulders.

But the man obviously didn't come towards them, but went straight to Liang Yan's office behind him.

"Captain Liang, tell me who killed my son!"

As soon as these words came out, Chen Xiao couldn't help but suspect that the person coming was Zhao Xiaohong's father, Zhao Hai.

Liang Yan shook her head: "I'm sorry, Mr. Zhao, the case was only discovered last night, so we haven't found the suspect so far."

"Then you hurry up and check. I want to see him. I want to know who killed my son!"

As he spoke, Zhao Hai's mood became more and more hysterical.

In the end, he couldn't help but stand in the criminal police team and yelled: "If I find him, I want him to pay for my son's life, I want his whole family to die!!!!"

Zhao Hai bit the last word "death" hard.

Chen Xiao can understand such an outburst of emotions.

Luo Dali has already said that Zhao Hai was obsessed with a third party in his early years, which led Zhao Xiaohong's mother to commit suicide by drinking medicine.

This was the beginning of the break between Zhao Hai and Zhao Xiaohong.

But no matter what, Zhao Xiaohong is always Zhao Hai's son, not to mention that his new third party has never given birth to a boy for him, so in Zhao Hai's heart, Zhao Xiaohong is still his only expectation.

At this time, a woman also appeared in the corridor.

Seeing the crazy Zhao Hai, the woman immediately shouted: "Zhao Hai, why are you so crazy here? This is the criminal police team, there is no murderer of your son here!"

"Shut the hell up! It's my son who died! Don't say you're crazy, I'd rather die today... than live!"

With that said, Zhao Hai squatted on the ground and cried loudly.

That kind of crying can make people clearly feel Zhao Hai's helplessness and panic at this time.

The woman did not scold Zhao Hai anymore, but patted his back gently.

Seeing this scene, Chen Xiao couldn't help but look at the woman.

To be honest, the woman is only five or six years older than him at most.

Chen Xiao is 23 this year, which means that the age of a woman is only thirty years old at most.

On the other hand, Zhao Hai is almost forty.

With such an age gap and such behavior, anyone can guess what kind of relationship she has with Zhao Hai.

However, the woman didn't seem to mind what others thought at all. She walked directly in front of Liang Yan and said apologetically:
  "Captain Liang, I'm sorry. I hope you can understand the feelings of a father who has lost his child."

Liang Yan shook her head: "I understand, but I suggest you take Mr. Zhao back first. We will get to the bottom of the case."

"Then I'll bother the officers from Team Liang and the Criminal Police Team."

As the woman spoke, she forcibly dragged Zhao Hai away.

The latter was reluctant at first, but the appearance of the last little girl made Zhao Hai soften a lot.

That little girl must be Zhao Xiaohong's half-sister.

After waiting for Zhao Hai and others to leave, Liang Yan sighed and said, "Zhao Xiaohong's father, Zhao Hai, and his stepmother, Xiao Nian."

"Ms. Xiao is really young. She is the only one who can be so calm in such a matter." Lin Xi said lightly.

Chen Xiao shook his head: "No, she seems to be holding on to something. Look at her eyes, she must have cried, and her palms are injured."

Liang Yan and Lin Xi both looked at him with surprised expressions. The former asked, "You observe so carefully?!"

"I just noticed it. There are scars embedded in nails on her palms. Although she has been hiding it, it is not difficult to see from the angle I am standing at." Chen Xiao found a reason at random.

Liang Yan nodded: "Yes, I saw it accidentally just now. To be honest, I was very strange when I first saw it. It stands to reason that Xiao Nian and Zhao Xiaohong must not have any mother-son affection. According to the information collected "It's hard to describe their relationship with just one word." "Zhao Xiaohong is now dead, and Xiao Nian is almost the biggest beneficiary. Because Zhao Hai's ex-wife no longer leaves anyone or anything in this home, so what will happen to Zhao Hai in the future? The entire Zhao family’s property belongs to her and her daughter.”

After Liang Yan finished speaking, Lin Xi also followed her words and expressed his confusion: "Then this is a bit strange. Since their relationship is very bad, why did Xiao Nian cry when Zhao Xiaohong died? Or even because of his clutching You tightened your fists, causing your nails to dig into your palms and get injured?"

Liang Yan shook her head to indicate that she didn't understand either.

Chen Xiao thought for a while and smiled: "There will definitely be an answer to this by then. Let's go do our things first."

"Ok."

Lin Xi didn't say anything more and went through the entry procedures with Chen Xiao.

More than an hour later, Chen Xiao's mobile phone received a payment message.

The reward given to him by the police station has arrived!
  Just looking at the text messages, Chen Xiao suddenly realized that Lin Xi had sent him two messages last night!

Article 1: "Honey, are you asleep?"

Article 2: "Hey, are you really asleep? I can't sleep!"

Seeing these two messages with completely inconsistent emotions, Chen Xiao finally understood why Lin Xi was so angry with him so early in the morning.

Thinking of this, Chen Xiong was ready to call Lin Xi.

Coincidentally, Lin Xi also ran over after completing various procedures: "Husband, are you ready over there?"

Chen Xiao put down the phone: "It's all done, and everything has been paid."

Chen Xiao showed the text message to Lin Xi, who couldn't help but smile happily: "Oh, my husband is great!"

"Hey, this is just the beginning. My wife, believe me, you will see a completely different me soon." Chen Xiaoxiao said, subconsciously clicking the return button of the text message.

At this time, Lin Xi's eyes were still on the text message interface. At a glance, he saw the two messages he sent last night, which had read status.

Lin Xi, who was smiling just now, suddenly became unhappy.

"I understand. I just joined the company today and there are many procedures to familiarize yourself with. You can go home alone first."

Lin Xi said coldly, and Chen Xiao was stunned: "No, otherwise..."

"You go home."

Lin Xi said and left angrily.

Chen Xiao stood there and rolled his eyes, thinking to himself: "What does this woman mean? Wasn't she very happy just now?"

Shaking his head, Chen Xiao couldn't figure out the reason for a moment, so he could only bite the bullet and leave the criminal police team.

However, after leaving, Chen Xiao didn't think about going home. After thinking about it, he called Luo Dali.

"Hey, Brother Chen, what's going on?"

"Are you free now? I'll take you somewhere."

"I don't have anything, I just have a lot of time. Whatever you say, I'll come right away."

"By the river where Zhao Xiaohong was found."

Luo Dali paused for a moment and then said: "Okay, I'll come right away."

After ending the call, Chen Xiao rode his Jialing motorcycle to the scene where Zhao Xiaohong's body was dumped last night.

Chen Xiao arrived at the location more than ten minutes later, and Luo Dali arrived almost at the same time as him.

Once they arrived at the place, Chen Xiao didn't say much and walked directly to the river bank.

He wanted to see if he, who had acquired the ability to capture, could discover something that no one else could!
