The group of people played until twelve o'clock. Zhou Ailing and the others followed Mo Hongyan to the company, Chen Chuan, Zhou Yan, Han Zimei and Sun Wanzi to the hotel.

Just as it was dawn the next morning, the elder brother Zhou Yan was on the bedside ringing. He opened his eyes in a daze, picked up the phone, and said weakly: "Hey!"

"What?" Zhou Yan sat up suddenly, his face was ferocious, his eyes widened, and he looked scary, "When? Where is the person now... OK, I'll go there right away."

"Bang bang bang!" As soon as he put down his phone, the door was knocked heavily. He put on his clothes and ran over to open the door. He saw Zhou Pei's eyes red at the station door, "Brother!" Then tears fell down, "How could this happen? How could he commit suicide..."

Zhou Yan hugged Zhou Pei with a gloomy face: "I don't believe he will commit suicide. This is too strange. It must be related to that bastard Xie Tian."

Zhou Pei looked up: "How do you know?"

"I guess!" Zhou Yan said, "The woman Yun Shujing is not simple. She has always been ambitious and wants to join the Xie family. But as long as Xie Chun is here, Xie Dongping will be scruples and dare not divorce his aunt. The woman Yun Shujing will not have a chance."

"You're just guessing!" Zhou Pei calmed down.

"Can you guess or not, you can only go and take a look first." Zhou Yan turned around and went back, put on his clothes, stopped washing his face, and left with the car keys.

As soon as he left the door, Zhou Pei asked curiously: "What's wrong?"

Zhou Yan's expression on his face was very serious, "If I see Xie Tian, ​​I'm afraid I can't control myself and I'll hit him, but that guy is a karate master. I will definitely suffer a loss when I fight, so I'll find a bodyguard!"

Zhou Yan turned around and walked towards Chen Chuan's room. Chen Chuan had already gotten up at this time and was working on the rusty iron brush. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that this thing was not simple. He always felt like blood was connected, but he couldn't start.

"Bang bang bang..."

A heavy knock on the door suddenly sounded, and Chen Chuan walked over to open the door. He was quite surprised when he saw it was Zhou Yan: "Fuck, why did you get up so early today?" Then he saw Zhou Pei again and felt something was wrong, because Zhou Pei went to Xinghai Entertainment last night and ran over so early today. Something must have happened.

Zhou Yan said, "Go to a place with me!" After that, he turned around and left.

Chen Chuan didn't ask, and followed Zhou Yan and his sister out of the hotel and got in the car.

"Tell me!" Chen Chuan took out a cigarette and lit it, "What's wrong."

Zhou Pei's eyes turned red again, "My cousin jumped off the building and committed suicide. We don't believe he would commit suicide. Because he was very cheerful, he laughed and didn't have a positive appearance all day long. How could a person with such a personality not think about it and commit suicide!"

"What is he doing?" Chen Chuan asked with a sip of smoke.

"Painter!" said Zhou Pei, "and he is also very famous."

Chen Chuan didn't ask again, but Zhou Pei kept saying: "My uncle is Xie Dongping, he is an ordinary person. When he was young, his family was in a normal state. When my mother said that my aunt was dating him, the family opposed it, but my aunt recognized the scum. My grandparents had no choice but to agree.

After getting married, Xie Dongping, with the help of my grandfather, joined the towel factory as the director. I have to say that Xie Dongping is a scumbag, but he is really good at doing business. The towel factory has always suffered losses due to triangular debts. After he went there, he turned losses into profits in a year.

Later, when reform and opening up, he was one of the first people to resign from public office and go into business. In just four or five years, his company's assets exceeded 100 million yuan. At this time, my aunt suddenly discovered that he had an affair and an illegitimate child, who was eleven years old, only one year younger than my cousin. In other words, in the third year of their marriage, the second year of my cousin's birth, he had an affair and a child."

Chen Chuan leaned on the back of the chair, listening with his eyes closed, and sniffing cigarettes from time to time. Zhou Pei said to himself, but he didn't care whether Chen Chuan would like to listen.

"My aunt asked someone to investigate. The woman was Xie Dongping's secretary, named Yun Shujing. It can be said that this had a big blow to my aunt, but she was too strong and didn't tell anyone in the family. It was probably because she married Xie Dongping desperately at the beginning and felt that she had no shame to tell her family."

Chen Chuan opened his eyes and asked, "How do you know about this?"

Zhou Pei said: "My cousin told us not to see that he is careless and doesn't think about anything. He only knows how to draw. But he is really amazing. After graduation, he entered the company and in two years, he tripled the company's assets and drove Yun Shujing out of the company. Let's put it this way, Xie Dongping dared not divorce my aunt because of my cousin."

Chen Chuan opened the car window and threw the cigarette butt out: "Do your family know about this?"

"I know!" Zhou Pei said hatefully, "My cousin won't let me tell my grandparents, including my parents."

Chen Chuan asked, "What did that illegitimate child do?"

Zhou Pei said: "There are five karate halls in Beijing, seventh section of Karate, and have won many world championships."

Hearing this, Chen Chuan twitched his eyelids, looked at Zhou Yan who was driving, and said with a smile: "Second guy, you asked me to come, are you afraid that you would get beaten up if you met that illegitimate child?"

Karate associations of various countries can only award ranks of one to five sections, and ranks of more than six sections must be awarded by the World Karate Alliance headquarters. Generally speaking, eight sections and nine sections belong to "honor sections" and are no longer obtained through exams, but are awarded to those who have made outstanding contributions to the development of karate. They are awarded after evaluation by experts in the karate world. Therefore, the 9th section of Karate means that this person is already the leader of karate all over the world. Therefore, the seven sections of this illegitimate child are really awesome.

Zhou Yan snorted coldly: "I just wanted to be in case. The mother and son were afraid to appear in our family's vision before. Now I keep saying something happened, and they may take advantage of this opportunity to announce their existence."

At the funeral home, Zhou Yan parked his car in the parking lot, and took his elder brother to go in while calling. Three young people walked over in front of him. When he saw Zhou Yan, he greeted him from afar.

"What about this!"

Zhou Yan walked over quickly: "Where is the person?"

One of the young men said: "In the condolence room No. 1, the old man has arrived and has just arrived!"

Hall No. 1 is the largest condolence hall in the funeral home. The cold coffin is placed in the center, surrounded by flowers, and on the wall facing the door, there are photos hanging, and there are elegy couplets on both sides.

At this time, there were fifty or sixty people in the mourning hall, but it was not crowded at all. When Chen Chuan came in, he looked at the portrait. He was less than thirty years old, wearing glasses, and a bright smile on his face. He looked very sunny, unlike someone who jumped off the building if he couldn't imagine it.

An old man with white hair was supported by a guard and looked down at the body in the cold coffin. After a while, he raised his head. A drop of turbid tears hung on the corner of his eyes and said to a girl next to him.

"I'm leaving, you'll go back later and accompany your mother."

The girl was chewing gum in her mouth, and her expression on her face was a little unruly. When she heard the old man's words, she just nodded indifferently: "Okay, I'll go back later."

The old man looked at the girl, sighed, and said to the guard beside him: "Let's go!"

"Master!" Zhou Yan and Zhou Pei shouted and walked over quickly.

When the old man saw Zhou Yan, he snorted coldly. When he saw Zhou Pei, the expression on his face suddenly melted like an iceberg: "You are here, go see your brother, talk to him, I'll leave first."

The old man left, Chen Chuan followed Zhou Yan and Zhou Pei to the cold coffin. When he saw the body, his brows frowned. He found that seven green air appeared on the surface of the body, perhaps because the cold coffin was covered, and the green air could not dissipate.

"Bow!"

"Two bows!"

"Bow three times!"

Chen Chuan, Zhou Yan and Zhou Pei bowed three times to the deceased.

Zhou Pei walked to the rebellious girl, hugged her shoulder and said, "Ranran, don't be sad, my brother is gone, you are the only one of my aunt."

"Pan" a big bubble was spit out in the girl's mouth, and then it exploded: "I hurt my heart. As for people, I will die sooner or later, but he has died for decades. What's so sad about it?"

That's what he said, but after he finished speaking, tears fell down, and the chewing gum was getting faster and faster. "It's okay to die, so he won't always quarrel with me. Look at him lying here now. No matter how I scold him, he doesn't even complain. How great is he?"

This girl is Zhou Pei's cousin Xie Ran. She couldn't help but hug Xie Ran into her arms and cried bitterly.

Hearing Zhou Pei's crying, Xie Ran's rebellious coat was finally torn off, and she hugged Zhou Pei and cried loudly: "Sister, Xie Chun is a bastard. I shouted so much, begged him not to jump, but what about him? He didn't say a word, and he jumped in front of me without even looking at me."

"Okay, okay, don't cry." A middle-aged woman came over and comforted them.

After a while, the two stopped crying, and Zhou Pei asked, "Are you there with him last night?"

Xie Ran nodded: "Last night, he called me and said he was in a bad mood, so he asked me to go over and drink with him. At around 4 o'clock in the morning, I got up to go to the bathroom and found that the door of his house was open, but the person was not there. Because he was in a bad mood, the person disappeared so early. I was afraid that something would happen, so I went out to look for it. I searched for it but didn't see anyone. I came back only to dawn, and then I saw a group of people standing downstairs and pointing. When I looked up, Xie Chun was standing on the roof."

Zhou Pei asked, "Have he told you something?"

Xie Ran shook his head: "No, don't you understand him yet? What he wants to say will naturally say. If you don't want to say it, you won't say it even if you ask him."

Chen Chuan hesitated for a moment and patted Zhou Yan on the shoulder: "Come out with me!"

Zhou Yan was talking to the three young men. When he heard Chen Chuan's words, he turned around and followed him. The three young men also came out.

Chen Chuan asked Zhou Yan: "Do you know the date of birth of your cousin?"

"I know!" said a young man, "born at 4:17 am on the eighth day of the ninth lunar month."

Chen Chuan raised his right hand and calculated with his thumb on four fingers. He was so fast that he could only see a afterimage, which made the three young men stunned.

After a while, Chen Chuan said: "In the year of Bingyin, the month of Wuxu, the day of Wuzi, the hour of Jiayin, the hour of Yang year, the month of Yang month, the day of Yang. People with the four yangs have three lives, which overcomes the yang yang, and is guided by Yang, and receives the nature of Yang. Moreover, it is fire life, and the mutual assistance of Yang fire has occupied the position of Yang energy in heaven and earth. His life is very hard, so how could he commit suicide? Even if he commits suicide, let alone jumping on the fourth floor, he will not die even if he jumps on the tenth floor."

"Bang!" The young man slapped his thigh, "Yes, he used to show off to us, saying that he was a person of the Four Yangs and had a very strong life, so we all remember his birthday very clearly."

Chen Chuan looked at Zhou Yan: "Do you believe me?"

Zhou Yan was stunned: "What does it mean?"

Chen Chuan said, "It's literal meaning. Do you believe me?"

Zhou Yan nodded: "Faith!"

Chen Chuan said, "Your cousin's death is not an accident."

"How is that possible!" said the young man, "at that time, Xiao Ran was at the scene, and there were many witnesses, who jumped down by himself."

Chen Chuan shook his head: "Under normal circumstances, if you kill someone, the murderer must contact the victim. No matter how careful you are, you will leave clues. But there is another type of killing someone under abnormal circumstances."

"Kill someone under abnormal circumstances?" Several people were stunned, "What does it mean?"

Chen Chuan said, "You don't understand, take me to where he lives, maybe the answer is there."

Zhou Yan nodded, entered the hall, and waved to Zhou Pei.

Zhou Pei and Xie Ran walked out: "What's the matter?"

Zhou Yan said: "Erchuan said that Xie Chun's death may not be an accident."

"Impossible!" Xie Ran said, "I saw him jumping down with my own eyes."

Zhou Yan said: "If you don't talk about this, let's go to his place to live first."

"Okay!" Xie Ran walked towards the parking lot, "I'll take you there."

Zhou Yan pointed at Chen Chuan and said as he walked, "Come on, let me introduce you to Chen Chuan, my good buddy." Then he pointed at the three young men, "Kong Desheng, Hou Zhiwen, Xing Feng, are Xie Chun's childhood friends, and we have a good relationship."

The three young men shook hands with Chen Chuan, and they met him.

Several people had cars, and they drove away from the funeral home and headed straight to where Xie Chun lived.

Qifuyuan Community is an old-fashioned residential community. At this time, there were many people standing under a building, talking about something.

"Give me aside, don't block the door." Zhou Pei shouted in dissatisfaction.
