I started out as a criminal, and the police relied on me to solve countless cases.

Chapter 235 Hesitation
How evil can human hearts be?
There was a funny joke on the Internet before. If you could get five million by shooting your friend, what would you do?
Most people would jokingly say without thinking, where is my Gatling gun? I choose to spray.

But what if the reward amount is only 4000 yuan? Will someone kill others for it?
The sky gradually brightened. The old man on the bed woke up in a daze, then fell into a deep sleep again. He seemed to be talking in his sleep, half asleep and half awake. This mental state was already very dangerous.

This has little to do with physical condition, it's simply because people's desire to survive is too weak.

In mid-April, Guangzhou has already entered summer mode.

The 30-degree weather coupled with the hot and humid climate is too severe for the elderly to maintain a healthy body, even if the central air-conditioning at home ensures a constant temperature all year round and the ventilation of the villa is also very good.

But I still can't stop my body from sweating.

"Auntie Wu, why aren't you asleep yet? Are you angry because I just called you a bad person?"

The old man seemed to have lost his memory, and he was staring at the shadow of the tree on the wall with half-closed eyes.

"It's already daybreak. Did you not sleep all night?"

"Hey, if you really want my money, just tell me. I'm telling you, you can't go on like this. It's not good to hurt others."

"Auntie, you are talking nonsense again."

"I'm not talking nonsense. I'm eighty-four, no, eighty-five. I've seen all kinds of people. I saw the Japanese when I was a child, and later I saw the Homecoming Corps. I've seen traitors, hooligans, ruffians, and bandits. I've seen them all. I've also seen murderers during the severe period. You've had blood on your hands, and your eyes are different from other people's. You can't hide it too deeply, because I can see it in the corner of your eyes."

"Auntie, I'm an honest man, I haven't been to school, I can't argue with you, you should just take a rest."

Aunt Wu smiled and wiped the old man's sweat with a towel.

It was as if the conversation just now had never happened.

The old woman was indeed in a daze. She was very experienced and knew that people who had reached this stage usually didn't have much chance of survival.

It is better to save yourself a living than to die in vain.

Thinking this, Aunt Wu helped the old man put on his clothes and covered his stomach with a thin blanket.

But she was still hesitating, not whether she should take action or not.

She has done this kind of thing many times and is very familiar with it. So what if the other party is a relative of the chief of the Yangcheng Police Station?

There are so many ways to kill an old man who is so weak. She doesn't even need to use any poison, hemp rope, or other auxiliary tools.

She was too weak. Whether she died of a heart attack, a cerebral infarction, or accidentally holding her breath, it was normal and no one would think of any special reason.

She had never seen before that the family members of an elderly person would think of performing an autopsy on the elderly person.

What's more, the old woman seemed to be confused and didn't want to live anymore. Where can I find such a good thing?

But what did she mean by those dirty words? What did she mean by she could tell at first glance that I was a bad person?
Without any evidence, just because I went through her closet in the middle of the night? What a fool.

Aunt Wu put away the towel and made a secret decision in her heart that she must act as soon as possible. Just like the old woman said, the longer you stay at night, the more trouble you will have.

The money she earned from this job was more than all the jobs she had done before.

The big shot’s mother is really rich.

But after a moment of excitement, she suddenly fell silent again, went out quietly, and continued to ask Aunt Wang to prepare morning tea.

For nothing else.

That young man, with his pair of strange eyes, seemed to be staring at her all the time. She knew that this was impossible, but every time she had the urge to kill him, her heart would beat fast.

This feeling is very strange. I have killed so many of them, but I never felt anything. It is so normal, no different from killing a chicken.

Why do I feel uneasy?
No! We have to take action! We can’t delay any longer.

"Auntie Wang! Hurry up and prepare breakfast. I need to make the soup first. What's wrong with you lately? You are always forgetful. Did you take the wrong medicine?"

Wu Ma was distracted, so she naturally didn't notice Aunt Wang who was also distracted in the kitchen. The two of them were busy in the kitchen in silence.

Xiguan Police Department, Chief’s Office.

Lao Ding was sitting behind his desk looking at the accounts, with his cell phone resting on a stand displaying surveillance footage of his home.

In the picture, the old man is lying on the bed resting.

This was the homework assigned to him by Jiang Hanwen, which was to check the surveillance at home every morning before going to work.

Although there were two nannies at home and Song Hongyu would go back every one or two days, he still believed in Jiang Hanwen's words.

Although this matter is not a big deal, Lao Ding really has no choice.

He doesn't have the final say on family matters. She's Director Song's own mother. To put it bluntly, it's not up to him, the son-in-law, to care about her.

Lao Ding asked himself, if it were him, if Jiang Hanwen said that, he would not even think about it for a second, and would immediately fire both nannies, and then let Lao Liang interrogate them strictly, regardless of whether they had a criminal record or whether there was evidence.

But the problem is, Director Song has said that the two nannies performed well and she has personally inspected them and there is no problem.

Haha, I'm really a cheapskate. If the emperor is not anxious, the eunuchs are. You are very carefree, but I have to keep an eye on you every day.

Old Ding held the teacup and shook his head helplessly.

Jiang Hanwen was right. This was his family affair. As an outsider, he could speak out to remind him and he also personally came to check it out for you. He had done very well and had done his utmost.

As a friend, I can't find any fault with him, even though what he said was unpleasant.

"That's your mother-in-law, not my mother-in-law. Even the King of Hell can't stop a ghost that wants to die. I've already helped you by coming here in person. As for how things develop, it has nothing to do with me."

Jiang Hanwen, ah Jiang Hanwen, you are a little bit bad in your good side, and a little bit good in your bad side. You are really hard to figure out.

Old Ding glanced at his empty glass cabinet.

"You don't drink at all, why did you take away all the good wine I treasured?"

Old Ding suddenly felt a pang of pain. Although the tea leaves were all first- or second-rate, not top-quality goods, the wine was genuine, including a bottle of Maotai with an iron cap that cost more than 200,000 yuan.
"Buzz buzz~~~~"

Before Lao Ding had time to feel the pain, the phone on the table rang.

"Lao Ding! Call your wife right away and ask her to send someone home! I'll be waiting for you at the high-speed rail station, come right over. I checked the time and I can be at your house in half an hour!"

"Don't talk nonsense, that's your mother-in-law, not mine. Go away now while I'm in a good mood! Otherwise, I won't care about you anymore."

Old Ding is not a fool. When he heard Jiang Hanwen's voice from the other side, his brain buzzed.

He immediately ran out of the office.

"Disciple! Get down and drive me to the high-speed rail station! Now!"

"Hello, the number you dialed is currently unavailable. Please try again later."

“Ding ding ding~~”

This was followed by an automated reply message.

[I'm in a meeting. I'll call you back later.]

"Flop! Song Hongyu!"

Lao Ding jumped down the stairs, still holding his phone and sending messages in mid-air.

"Your mother is dying, go home!"
