Liu Kai Xuan walked over and said, "Officer Zhang, I wasn't present at the time of the incident!"
"However, my wife was there, and I came with her!"
Zhang Lei nodded and replied, "Then please, Comrade Zhao Feiyan, speak!"
Zhao Feiyan immediately stepped out from the crowd and said, "What Comrade Wang Jun just said is basically true!"
"But I also saw it with my own eyes, the deaf old lady claimed she had a stomach ache, and Yi Zhonghai was urging her to quickly stamp her fingerprint on the will!"
"See? Even Director Liu and his wife said so. Can Yi Zhonghai be shot now?"
Li Xing Gai was already impatient to get rid of Yi Zhonghai, this scoundrel.
In fact, Li Xing Gai's wish represented the will of most of the neighbors in the courtyard.
This time, what Yi Zhonghai did had completely crossed the line of being human.
Only those who were utterly wicked and beastly could commit such inhumane acts.
Today Yi Zhonghai murdered the deaf old lady for inheritance, and who knows who he might harm in the future.
Could such a reckless scoundrel, who disregarded human life, be allowed to live?
Zhang Lei waved his hand and signaled, "Yi Zhonghai, tell everyone what you know!"
"The situation is like this!"
Yi Zhonghai eagerly said to everyone, "That bowl of fish soup was originally prepared for me by Bang Geng!"
"I saw that the deaf old lady was ill and needed nourishment, so I took the fish soup over for her to drink!"
Li Xing Gai immediately retorted, "Yi Zhonghai, who are you trying to fool?"
"If you confess now, you might still be able to get some leniency!"
"If you continue to quibble, you'll be executed and your name will be reviled for generations!"
Yi Zhonghai decisively retorted, "Li Xing Gai, I warn you, don't spout nonsense here!"
"Over the years, I have been the one supporting the deaf old lady. Everyone has seen this with their own eyes!"
"That bowl of fish soup was personally cooked for me by Bang Geng!"
"It was fish soup for me to drink, but I was reluctant to drink it myself, so I gave it to the deaf old lady!"
"Even if I were utterly inhumane, would I poison my own food?"
Wang Da Peng asked, "As far as I know, Bang Geng and the deaf old lady don't seem to have any enmity, do they?"
"They have no grudges. Why would Bang Geng want to poison the deaf old lady?"
Yi Zhong Hai replied indignantly, "That little beast Bang Geng, he wasn't trying to poison the deaf old lady!"
"His real target was clearly me!"
"Ah..." As soon as Yi Zhong Hai said this, Wang Da Peng was rendered speechless.
Wang Da Peng realized that he had fallen into a misunderstanding, and a very ridiculous one at that.
Yi Zhong Hai and Bang Geng had no deep hatred for the deaf old lady.
However, Yi Zhong Hai and Bang Geng had a deep, irreconcilable feud between them.
Bang Geng had cut off Yi Zhong Hai's hope of continuing the family line, and Yi Zhong Hai held a deep hatred for Bang Geng.
These were all hatreds that could not be resolved.
A while ago, when Bang Geng recognized a thief as his father and called Yi Zhong Hai 'father', everyone felt something was wrong.
When did the hatred for a killer of one's father become so easily dismissed? That seemed too exaggerated.
Now, with Yi Zhong Hai saying that Bang Geng wanted to poison him with fish soup, it made perfect sense.
To clarify the truth, they could only ask Bang Geng to explain.
"I never thought of killing the deaf old lady. Her death has nothing to do with me!"
Bang Geng was also cunning. After appearing, he didn't waste many words and directly shirked all responsibility.
Zhang Lei said in a deep voice, "Bang Geng, don't be so agitated!"
"I haven't said that you deliberately poisoned the deaf old lady!"
"But you must explain to me clearly, where did this bowl of poisoned pufferfish soup come from?"
"Ah, pufferfish soup?"
Bang Geng feigned ignorance, "I specially went to the river to catch fish for my dad and made fish soup. How did it become pufferfish soup?"
"What is pufferfish?"
At Bang Geng's age, it wasn't strange for him to say he didn't know what pufferfish was.
Soon, Zhang Lei shifted the focus back to Yi Zhong Hai.
"Yi Zhong Hai, explain it clearly, where did this pufferfish come from?"
"How would I know!"
Yi Zhong Hai replied with a bitter face, "Bang Geng bought the fish from the riverbank!"
"Bang Geng made the fish soup himself in the kitchen!"
"Bang Geng operated entirely by himself throughout this whole process. I wasn't involved at all!"
Bang Geng quickly defended himself, "The fish soup I made was definitely just fish soup, with no pufferfish added!"
Yi Zhong Hai was furious, "Bang Geng, you're lying!"
"I'm not lying!" Bang Geng retorted fiercely, "I made it with good intentions, specifically for you to drink!"
"My mother can testify to this!"
Yi Zhong Hai looked back at Qin Huai Ru and shouted, "Qin Huai Ru, tell me, was this fish soup really made by Bang Geng!"
Qin Huai Ru had been so flustered by her fierce argument with Yi Zhong Hai just now that she was still dazed.
Now that Yi Zhong Hai asked her, Qin Huai Ru had already made up her mind.
"I saw it with my own eyes, Bang Geng did bring back a catfish from outside!"
"Bang Geng is a good boy, how could he use pufferfish to harm someone?"
"Qin Huai Ru, you..." Yi Zhong Hai was on the verge of exploding.
"What nonsense are you spouting? Lying in front of the police will also entail legal responsibility!"
"I'm not lying, I absolutely saw Bang Geng bring back a catfish!"
Qin Huai Ru continued, "I even offered to help him prepare it, but Bang Geng said to let me rest, and he handled the fish himself!"
"I can guarantee that the pufferfish was definitely not put into the pot by Bang Geng!"
"Bitch, I think you're asking for death!" Yi Zhong Hai suddenly flew into a rage and lunged forward as if to strangle Qin Huai Ru to death.
Zhang Lei quickly stepped in and grabbed Yi Zhong Hai's shoulder, stopping the enraged man.
Otherwise, Yi Zhong Hai would have pounced on Qin Huai Ru and fought her to the death at this moment.
Yi Zhong Hai hated it in his heart. Anyone with eyes could see that it was Bang Geng's pufferfish soup that was meant to poison him, to avenge Jia Dong Xu.
Unfortunately, Qin Huai Ru was now determined to lie with her eyes wide open.
Now that Yi Zhong Hai and Bang Geng had conflicting accounts, Qin Huai Ru's words undoubtedly became the most convincing testimony.
But Qin Huai Ru was now going to help Bang Geng completely destroy Yi Zhong Hai.
It was a joke, Bang Geng was Qin Huai Ru's biological son!
