dn't mind getting close to her. It was simply because she lacked the cloying scent of perfume and vanity that repulsed him, and the petty thoughts that disgusted him. Perhaps having a child with her w...The ringtone was crisp, but for some reason, Fu Xiaoyao felt inexplicably depressed and even a little ominous at this moment.

But she didn't think much of it, took out her phone and glanced at it before answering, "Officer Tang."

"Ms. Shi, there's something I hope you're mentally prepared for." the person on the phone said.

Fu Xiaoyao frowned, "Psychological preparation"

"Yes," Officer Tang replied.

Fu Xiaoyao took a deep breath, "I'm ready. What do you want me to do"

"Well, then let me say it. Your father, Qi Dongming, is dead." Officer Tang stated.

Fu Xiaoyao's mind buzzed, and she was stunned for a long time.

After a while, I finally managed to find my voice. "What did you say He's dead"

"Yes, please come to the police station. I'll tell you the specifics when you get here." Officer Tang replied.

Fu Xiaoyao bit her lip. "Okay, I'll be there right away."

After hanging up the phone, she put it down, her body trembling slightly.

Lu Hanchuan looked at her like this, a little heartbroken, and hugged her into his arms, "What's wrong"

The content of the phone call just now, she didn't put it on speakerphone, he didn't hear it, only heard her say something about who died.

"I'm fine." Fu Xiaoyao got out of his arms and shook her head. "The call just now was from Officer Tang. He told me that Qi Dongming is dead."

"What" Hearing this, Lu Hanchuan was also taken aback.

Qi Dongming is actually dead

"Is it true" Lu Hanchuan asked.

Fu Xiaoyao took a deep breath and let it out. "Officer Tang wouldn't lie, since he said so, it must be true. He asked me to go to the police station first, then tell me the details."

"Come on, I'll take you there." Lu Hanchuan took out his car keys.

He had just heard her say she was coming right away.

Fu Xiaoyao hummed in response, lifting her foot to follow him toward the parking lot.

An hour later, the two arrived at the police station.

Officer Tang had been waiting for them. When he saw them arrive, he got up to greet them.

Fu Xiaoyao directly asked, "Officer Tang, what's going on How did he die"

She knew Qi Dongming had cancer and wouldn't live much longer.

But it's absolutely impossible to die this quickly.

"It's like this," Officer Tang sighed, "He committed suicide."

"Suicide" Lu Hanchuan narrowed his eyes, "He's in prison, how did he commit suicide"

There is no way a weapon could exist in prison, and with guards watching at all times, there's no chance for suicide.

It's impossible to die by bumping into a wall, that's just something you see on TV.

In reality, hitting a wall yourself is unlikely to hit vital areas, so people generally don't die from hitting walls.

Officer Tang pressed his hand down, signaling for the two to sit down.

After they sat down, he said, “There wasn’t anything in prison that would allow him to commit suicide, but none of us expected that he would make his own. He sharpened the other end of his toothbrush and stuck it in his throat, bleeding to death.”

Lu Hanchuan twitched the corner of his mouth.

...such a suicide method!

...

"A toothbrush isn't that good at sharpening points, is it It's impossible to do it in a short amount of time!" Fu Xiaoyao looked at Officer Tang.

"I see," said Officer Tang. "It's impossible within a short period, but what if we had a few days After Qi Dongming died, I went to the prison myself. According to my sources, Qi Dongming would always spend half an hour in the toilet every day. I think that during those thirty minutes, he might have been able to grind it down."

Fu Xiaoyao clenched her hands tightly, "Spending half an hour in the restroom every day, this is obviously a problem. Haven't you noticed"

Officer Tang smiled wryly, “Qi Dongming has cancer, and he gets sick every day. When he’s ill, his whole body hurts. Ms. Shi, as you know, the people in prison aren't all good guys. The first time he got sick in prison, others thought he was too noisy and drove him to the toilet.”

"...." Fu Xiaoyao fell silent.

Officer Tang added, "Perhaps it was the first time he was driven to the toilet that he discovered he could sharpen his toothbrush. Then, every time he had an episode, he would proactively go to the toilet. This way, he wouldn't be bullied by others in prison, and no one would know what he was doing. He is indeed a very smart person."

"So, Qi Dongming had suicidal thoughts from the beginning" Lu Hanchuan asked.

Officer Tang rubbed his temples, "It should be so. As for the reasons, I have two points."

"Which two points" asked Fu Xiaoyao.

"Firstly, cancer is too painful and there's no cure. The daily pain tortured him mentally and he broke down. He was also getting old, so he couldn't bear it anymore. As for the next day, it was Qi Ya, his daughter who was sentenced to death. With his daughter dead, his father lost all hope and contemplated suicide."

For every reason Officer Tang gave, he would raise a finger.

Looking at his two raised fingers, Fu Xiaoyao scoffed, "Perhaps Officer Tang is right. He really loves his daughter Qi Ya."

Lu Hanchuan squeezed her hand, "I love you."

"Get lost!" Fu Xiaoyao glared at him.

Just then, a young officer suddenly knocked on the door and said at the doorway, “Officer Tang, when they were sorting through Qi Dongming’s belongings at the prison, they found a letter.”

"A letter" Officer Tang exclaimed, "To whom"

"It's addressed to a woman named Qi Mingzhu, but I checked the system and there is no one by that name." The young officer said, looking at the recipient on the envelope.

Fu Xiaoyao stood up at once. "It was me."

"Huh" Officer Tang looked at her.

>

Lu Hanchuan was puzzled, "When did you change your name again"

“This is the name Qi Dongming gave me. He told me this before I was born. The last time I saw Qi Dongming, he told me,” replied Fu Xiaoyao.

"I see," Officer Tang nodded, taking the letter from the police officer's hand and then handing it to Fu Xiaoyao. "Since this is for Miss Shi, then Miss Shi should take it. However, I hope that Miss Shi will open it right here and now, because this came from prison, so our police station also needs to know the contents."

"Yes," Fu Xiaoyao agreed.

Then, under the gaze of the two, she opened the envelope and took out the letter to read.

After reading it, she lowered her eyelids, her hand holding the letter began to tremble again, and even let out small whimpers.

Lu Hanchuan saw the situation and hurriedly took the letter from her hand. Officer Tang stood behind him, checking it with him.

This is a letter of apology written by Qi Dongming to Fu Xiaoyao.

The gist of it is that Qi Dongming knows he did something wrong and apologizes to her and her mother. So, he decides to go find her mother and hopes she can forgive him.

"It turns out we were all wrong. Qi Dongming didn't commit suicide because of illness or Qi Ya, but for Miss Shi's mother." Officer Tang sighed with emotion after reading the letter.

"It's ridiculous," Fu Xiaoyao sneered. "When my mother was alive, he didn't beg for her forgiveness. He even conspired with his mistress to kill her. Now that he's old, he wants to go find my mother for forgiveness How laughable."

Lu Hanchuan understood her feelings, so he didn't speak to comfort her. He just patted her hand, telling her not to get too excited, after all, she wasn't in good health.

"May I have this letter, miss I need to register it," asked Officer Tang.

Fu Xiaoyao didn't consider it and agreed directly.

Officer Tang took the letter and left.

Lu Hanchuan looked at Fu Xiaoyao, "What do you want to do with Qi Dongming's body"give me money unconditionally!""Money, money, money, that's all you care about. Does money matter more than going to jail" Fu Xiaoyao yelled.Aunt Song saw that she was out of control emotionally, so s...
