Unexpected discovery

curled in disdain. "I've never seen anyone like you before. After serving the Emperor for several months, you actually managed to make him so angry. You're really stupid."She raised her hand and snapp...The little demon had previously reported back to Jiang Qiyun that the old woman's time for being summoned was at 3 o'clock in the hour of "Hai" (midnight).

It was nearing midnight, a time when the yin energy was thick and heavy, until daybreak when the yang energy became stronger.

In order to minimize the impact of his aura on my home, Jiang Qiyun always appears at night and leaves before dawn. This is also to conform to the alternating energy fields between day and night.

Many elderly people pass away in winter or the early hours of the morning, because the elderly are often weak and frail and cannot hold on during this period.

I hoped the hospital could save him, so Ms. Yan and I rushed straight to the hospital after leaving the police station.

Mrs. Yan was at a loss, unable to hear what the doctor was saying. She only came to her senses when it was time to pay.

Her father had just passed away, and I imagine the family finances were strained. Seeing the distress on her face, I offered to pay for her medical expenses.

She, being an elder now, covered her face and cried, repeatedly apologizing to me.

"Little Qiao, I'm so sorry... I never expected this to happen... I caused trouble for your family and even made you pay money... I have no face to see your father."

I thought to myself, you probably won't see my dad. He went with Grandma to the Shen family's place to avoid you.

My dad was also a crafty one. He knew that if he went back to his hometown, he would be found. So he decided to hide at the Shen family's place.

Mrs. Yan looked haggard, crying as she said, "...you really resemble your mother. I, I actually met your mother before..."

"Huh" I was taken aback.

My mother

She is in our house, like a transparent shadow.

It seems to be everywhere, yet it's also as if no one mentions it.

This feeling is very subtle.

Both the Shen family and the Mu family seem to be in a state of "silence" towards my mother.

They did not deliberately try to conceal it, but it was “almost” never mentioned.

I haven't even heard any private rumors about it, let alone being told to my face.

When Great-Aunt Shen gave me some of my mother's old belongings, she would say a few words.

My dad is the same way. There's no Mother's Day in our house. My father loved my mother deeply; he never acted as if she had passed away and never got close to any other woman.

I never expected to hear about my mother from this Ms. Yan who suddenly appeared.

"Back then... there were some misunderstandings between us. We lived in school dormitories back then, and your father was always getting into trouble, sneaking out to who knows where... Later, your mother came to the school to look for him, and I, I said some impolite things..." Madam Yan's voice grew softer and softer.

"...What impolite words" I asked curiously.

Mrs. Yan blushed and spoke in a low voice: "Because she looked so carefree, unlike a student, I thought she was a bad girl from society who instigated your father to skip school... so I scolded her, but she teased me, making me angry. I told my dad, and then when he saw her coming to study, he followed her on his bicycle, wanting to find out where she lived and talk to her parents about not falling in love too early..."

>

"Now that I think about it...I was really naive back then." Madam Yan said with a wry smile.

"You...should be married by now, right" I changed the subject.

Mrs. Yan blinked slightly, shaking her head without speaking.

It's not like it would be about my parents' business, and yet I ended up delaying my own romantic prospects because of it

"Now that I think about it, your mother seems to be a very capable person." She continued with a wry smile.

It seems that only by talking can she relieve her mental pressure.

"I still remember, back then, my dad rode his bicycle to catch up with you and mom. I don't know what the two of them talked about, but after they came back, my father was silent for several days. I asked him several times, and he finally told me that you and mom are amazing people, and I shouldn't conflict with you and mom anymore."

Mrs. Yen sighed: "But after that, I never got to see your father and mother again. They never attended class reunions, as if they had vanished... I only just learned now that your father was in this city..."

She chattered nervously, her hands twisting in each other, her heart clearly filled with trepidation.

I have some doubts because I heard a “key point”.

Her father, Mr. Yan, was once my dad's homeroom teacher and a high school biology teacher. Out of concern and discipline for his students, he once chased after my mother on his bicycle to give her advice.

But after going home, the old gentleman told Ms. Yan that "my mother is a capable person, don't start any conflicts anymore."

My mother, a well-educated and devout woman, couldn't possibly gather the disciples of the Shen family to beat someone up, could she

Besides, it's impossible to catch up with the Shen family on a bicycle... After all, the Shen family is so far away, and it would take an estimated two days to get there by bike.

Why do you say my mom is amazing How amazing can a girl who's not even ten years old be

"Just now... I heard my mom scold my brother, saying 'disobedient son, disobedient son...' " Mrs. Yan's hands began to tremble slightly: "Before Dad passed away, he scolded him like that too..."

"Could it be, could it be that my dad took my mom away!"

She was emotionally unstable, her lips trembling as she spoke.

"Calm down first, I didn't see your dad's ghost at your house... Think about it, did anyone in the family act strangely before your dad passed away" I reached out and placed my hand on her shoulder.

Her nostrils twitched slightly, her body trembled, and she mumbled a lot of incoherent words under her breath, without much point.

"...My dad isn't doing anything out of the ordinary... If you have to say something's odd, it's been odd for decades..." She said with a hint of complaint.

"What's been unusual for decades" I immediately asked.

"Well...it's just these specimens!" Mrs. Yan couldn't help but complain: "I don't know when, he started to like making specimens! Flowers and plants are quite romantic... suddenly, he brings home dying cats, dogs, and animals to make specimens! We were all taken aback... over time, we got too lazy to say anything about his old man."

My eyelids twitched.

There must be a reason for this.

Bio teachers, or biologists, use models for teaching, learning, and research. This is normal practice.

But to take it home to make a specimen...

This requires dissection and preparation at home, right Do you have the conditions for that at home And even handling animal carcasses is a bloody affair.

No wonder there was a heavy atmosphere of resentment on the roof of her house.

Thinking about it carefully, Mr. Yan went after my mother back then... Could he have seen something he shouldn't have

As for my brother, he's been mooching off our parents all along. Otherwise, how could my parents not afford to buy a new retirement home They still live in this old house that they have to constantly climb up and down!Mrs. Yan said angrily: "Since they're demolishing this place, my brother has been keeping an eye on when the demolition funds will be released!"

"...made my dad so angry, he even brought his wife and kids to our door the other day! He said his child was sick and couldn't afford treatment, asking Mom to give him the money from Dad's funeral. Mom was so upset she fainted..."

Mrs. Yan rubbed her hands together: "...yes, that's when my mother's mind started to get a little hazy!"

"How old is your brother's child... Is he really sick"

"My niece She's very young, only three years old. She often catches colds and has a fever.... The day before yesterday, she came to my house. At first, she was running and jumping around, but then for some reason, she suddenly collapsed with a thud and kept crying and babbling nonsense..."

These are all very important clues! Sometimes small things in life are often overlooked, and only when something happens do we remember them.

“I can probably guess what's going on with your family, but I need you to tell me everything in detail. In our line of work, a family falling apart is either an accident or the result of years of karmic debt. I hope you think back carefully and tell me the truth.” I said seriously.

"I... I'm telling the truth..." Mrs. Yan said, feeling wronged.

"...There must be some subtle details that you might have overlooked. Think carefully, not just recently, but also going back many years. When did your father first become enamored with making specimens"

"Oh my, it's been so many years! Look at all this in my house..." Mrs. Yan was at a loss for words.

Just as the doctor came out to call the family, she immediately ran over.

I glanced sideways at Jiang Qiyun, he had been silently following me.

"Instead of asking this woman, why not just go back to her house" He pointed at Lanyi sleeping in my arms with his chin. "First, send this little one home."ed of living!"The reporter glanced at my brother and said to Officer Lu beside him, "Look, this family talks just like the mob! Don't you guys do anything about it"Officer Lu let out a sneer. "You bet...
