Chapter 600: The Red-Clothed One Passes Away — Will She Become a Vengeful Ghost?

The man was silent for a moment, then said, "That, I'm not too sure about either."

"Whenever he was with us, he just kept watching cartoons and buying merchandise from them. His mother and I work in the city, so we don't really keep an eye on him."

"Even though his grades weren't great, he was always very well-behaved, so we felt pretty reassured."

Chen Fan asked again, "Then do you and your wife know whether your son has been in contact with any unusual people recently?"

The man shook his head once more and answered, "No idea. Whatever happens at school, we don't know about it either."

Judging from the things the man had answered.

The deceased little boy was probably like the typical left-behind child — rather introverted, with no real close friends at school, grades middling to below average, and because his parents didn't pay much attention to him, he was, to a certain extent, starved for affection.

The viewers in the livestream were also going wild with discussion.

"I feel like these parents aren't very competent — they don't even know their own child. There was no need to bring this kid into the world in the first place. It's one thing for him to board at school normally, but after going home he actually has to take care of himself — he's only in seventh grade!"

"Can the person upstairs think before they speak? You think every kid is like city kids — someone picks them up after school, hot meals waiting at home? Ordinary rural kids are all like this; the slightly better-off ones at least have grandparents at home."

"Let them eat cake — not every family has abundant wealth. Most parents in the world are out there working hard just to make a living, where do they find the time to look after their kids? The kid growing up is already good enough!"

"If that's the case, they have the ability to give birth but not the ability to raise — why have the kid at all? Isn't that just letting the child be born to suffer?"

"Can people not even have one child anymore? This couple only had one, right? They didn't have a second. No matter how poor someone is, they still have the right to reproduce — what gives you the right to talk about these parents like that?"

……

"Alright, that's all we need for now. If you or your wife think of anything, you must tell us, the police, right away."

Chen Fan instructed the man every day.

With the on-site examination complete, Chen Fan left the village with Xiang Qinqin and Liu Mengyan.

After returning to the city.

Chen Fan went straight to the dissection room, put on his gloves, and picked up the scalpel.

In just six and a half minutes, Chen Fan had completely finished dissecting the body.

Chen Fan looked at the dissected body and said, "There is congestion in the meningeal blood vessels; no contusions or hemorrhage visible in the brain parenchyma; the cardiac blood is dark red and flowing; pinpoint petechial hemorrhages are diffusely distributed beneath the pleura of both lungs."

"No damage was observed in any of the organs. Judging from these characteristics, the deceased should have died around one o'clock on Friday night."

"This is his cardiac blood. Liu Mengyan, take it and run a test — see whether the blood contains any common substances harmful to the human body, like pesticides or sleeping pills."

Liu Mengyan took what Chen Fan handed her and went to the testing room to run the tests herself.
