Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Excitedly, Chu Xujin approached Chu Qingzhi, “Fifth sister.”
Chu Qingzhi had just finished showcasing products on stage and seeing Chu Xujin’s excited expression, she asked, “Brother, did you solve the case? You seem very happy.”
Nodding with excitement, Chu Xujin said, “Yes, 1 solved it. Fifth sister, it’s all thanks to your advice that we were able to confirm the murder weapon and the murderer.”
Chu Qingzhi smiled and congratulated, “Congratulations, brother.”
“By the way, Fifth sister, I have something else to tell you.”
“What is it?”
“Xu San said that Zhou Da deliberately injured his leg to extort money.”
Chu Xujin’s expression grew serious, “Zhou Da was greedy for money. When you said if Zhou Da died within three days due to his injury, you would compensate a hundred taels of silver.”
“Madam Zhou complained to her cousin. Her cousin owed the casino a lot of money and was about to be beaten to death if he didn’t return the money. When her cousin heard that, he harbored murderous intentions and smothered Zhou Da to death with the blanket.”
“Madam Zhou and her cousin had been childhood sweethearts and she still had feelings for her cousin. Hence, she agreed to help him with the murder. They thought suffocation would leave no trace, but they didn’t expect the coroner to be able to identify the cause of death immediately.”
Hearing this, Chu Qingzhi asked, “How were they sentenced?”
Chu Xujin replied, “Gao Changyong will be executed in three days, and Madam Zhou, as an accomplice, is exiled three thousand miles away.”
Chu Qingzhi nodded in acknowledgment, “Hmm.”
Everyone was astounded upon learning about this incident, illustrating once again the saying, “Those who are pitiable must have detestable qualities.”
