413 The Secret About the Past 31 (1/2)

When Mrs. Chi was notified about it, three days had already gone past.

As she went to see Chi Rui'er for the final time, she could not withstand the blow and passed out instantly.

When she woke up, she found herself lying in the hospital with a nurse beside her.

Seeing that she was about to get up from the hospital bed, the nurse gently told her, ”Please wait for a moment. Someone is coming to fetch you.”

”Who?”

”It's people from the police force. They want to have a talk with you about something.”

Mrs. Chi knew, of course, that they wanted to talk to her about her daughter. Her face grew sullen and lifeless as she nodded.

Thereafter, she was sent to the police station by a police officer.

”Why was I only informed three days after she died?” This was the first question that burst out from Mrs. Chi's mouth.

Team Leader Zhang of the Serious Crimes Investigation Unit served her a cup of tea and replied, ”Auntie, let me explain. After we received the case, we did not find any identification on her body. Also, we were busy with investigations. For this, we apologize to you.”

”No matter how busy you are, it's only right to inform the family members at the very first moment, right? Also, how is the investigation going?”

”This is what I want to tell you. From the coroner's report, we've confirmed that her cause of death was due to a fall from a great height, which led to severe brain damage. It was suicide. Also, we've tracked her latest movements before her death and discovered she went to the hospital frequently. It seems that she was diagnosed with cervical cancer.”

Mrs. Chi was taken aback and instantly understood the truth behind her daughter's death. She had actually committed suicide.

If she had not known that she was diagnosed with cancer, she would not have believed her daughter would commit suicide. But after hearing it, she believed it.

”I see. She never told me. It's negligence on my part as her mother.”

Team Leader Zhang added on, ”Also, even if your daughter did not commit suicide, she would have been arrested for murder by us very soon. Do you remember the case of Xu Jingwen?”

Mrs. Chi nodded. ”I remember.”

”That's a charge for murder, she'd have been sentenced to death.”

As Mrs. Chi knew it well and clear, she did not want to go on any further. ”I'll make arrangements for Rui'er's funeral matters myself. Can I take her body back now?”

”Yes. I'll get someone to help you send it back.”

”Alright, thanks.”

Team Leader Zhang did not expect this matter to be settled so quickly. He was feeling relieved inside as he remarked, ”The weather's getting hot these days. I suggest you send it to the crematorium to be burned immediately.”

Mrs. Chi felt that was a reasonable thing to do. ”Alright, let's do that then.”

Team Leader Zhang hurriedly ordered his team members, ”Immediately help Auntie get Chi Rui'er's body to the crematorium.”

He also instructed them to watch over the cremation process.

Ding Liang, who was at the door, hurriedly turned and rushed back to the Special Investigations Unit, conveying everything that he had heard to his teammates.

Ma Jianguo hesitated for a moment and replied, ”Although this Chi Rui'er deserves to die, I still feel that something's not right. No, this can't do. I have to call Team Leader to tell her.”

”What's the point of telling her? Our team leader doesn't come to the station anymore and is focused on managing the company. She won't come back for sure.”

”We still have to tell her to let her know,” Ma Jianguo replied as he called An Xiaoning and told her everything Ding Liang had said.

In actual fact, An Xiaoning already knew the news about Chi Rui'er's death.

Furthermore, she had actually expected this day to come.

And did not find it surprising at all.

Most of all, she did not intend to interfere in Chi Rui'er's matter. She had other matters on her hands that she could not cope with, how would she have the extra time to investigate if Chi Rui'er's death was a suicide or not?

From her understanding of Chi Rui'er, she could actually guess who was behind her death.

But it was a pity, Xu Youran was about to lose her game.

An Xiaoning had already managed to prevent Chi Rui'er's matter from getting onto the news first.

Chi Rui'er's body was cremated just like that. It was good as well, since it did not allow Xu Youran to use this matter to stir up more trouble.
