"As far as we know, Lin Yurong’s family has now moved away from H City and gone to the nearby X City. They have settled down in X City. After receiving our call, they made excuses about being too busy with work to come,"
Director Xu appeared somewhat uneasy.
Xun Tianhai said in displeasure, "What do you mean they’re too busy? Are we supposed to be asking for their permission here? Besides, it’s their daughter who died, their daughter’s remains. How can they not show up? Does that seem appropriate to you?"
Jiangli narrowed his eyes, "Mr. Fu, if I remember correctly, it was mentioned at the beginning that Lin Yurong’s parents took the body back and had it buried long ago, right?"
Fu Shiyan, who was named, hummed in acknowledgment, "Yes, that did happen."
Xun Tianhai was taken aback, "That happened?"
Director Xu nodded, "Indeed, we checked the records. Lin Yurong’s body was initially discovered at a hotel. After confirming it was an accidental fall, the Lin Family took the body back for burial."
"Why would the body appear on Yan Mountain then?" Xun Tianhai was quite puzzled, "What happened in between?"
"The daughter’s remains, which should’ve long been laid to rest, are found by the police on Yan Mountain. As parents, didn’t they find it strange at all?" Jiangli’s face darkened, "And they just say they’re too busy?"
Director Xu nodded again, "That’s right, I was the one who personally contacted Lin Yurong’s family, so I also found it strange. I had someone look into the recent situation of the Lin family and discovered that... the Lins bought an apartment in a sought-after school district in X City, worth over three million. Lin Yurong’s parents also changed jobs, and their current company had past business interactions with the Fu Family."
Xia Xin understood, "...So you’re saying that Lin Yurong’s family had dealings with the Fu Family a long time ago?"
"Not that long ago, it seems to have started after Lin Yurong died," said Director Xu. "Our investigation uncovered that after Lin Yurong’s death, some strange people visited the Lin Family’s home. Not long after, they took Lin Yurong’s remains back for burial and moved away quickly."
Upon learning this information, Director Xu went to verify it with Fu Yuxing and Wan Qing.
Those people were sent there by Fu Yuxing’s mother, Wan Qing.
Wan Qing admitted that at first, the Lin Family wanted the police to investigate thoroughly, as they did not believe Lin Yurong was the kind of person to misbehave in a hotel.
Wan Qing feared that if the police continued their investigation, it might lead to Fu Yuxing, so she paid a large sum of money to buy Lin Yurong’s parents’ silence.
Once the Lin Family received the five million from Wan Qing, they moved away and never spoke of the incident again.
Upon hearing everything Director Xu said, Jiangli was almost laughing out of anger, "They spend the money for their daughter’s life so freely and without guilt?"
Now they don’t even want her remains!
They don’t plan to claim Lin Yurong’s body to let her be laid to rest.
Such parents, how heartless they must be!
Xia Xin couldn’t help but curse internally.
"What good are such people alive?" At that moment, a curse rang out from beside them.
Xia Xin thought he had accidentally voiced his thoughts aloud.
But when he turned around, he realized that it was Meng Hongyao who had spoken.
Meng Hongyao had always been .
Xun Tianhai and Director Xu were no longer surprised by her demeanor.
Xun Tianhai, with a stern face, said, "No, I will contact the Lin Family again!"
"Isn’t that illegal?" Jiangli asked skeptically, "Do we have to contact them? Can’t we just arrest them?"
Xun Tianhai paused, as if struck by realization, and turned sharply to look at Director Xu.
Director Xu said, "It’s considered harboring. After all, the five million from the Fu Family was delivered right to their doorstep. The Lin Family must be aware that Lin Yurong’s death had something fishy about it, yet they remained silent and took money to seal their lips. They’ve committed the crime of harboring, so I’ve already sent people to ’invite’ them."
Jiangli uttered an ’oh’ sound and then nodded.
Right, there are ways to deal with such people after all.
