Chapter 69

Under the pouring rain.

Su Chen’s family stood with their heads bowed, soaked in the rain, their expressions unreadable under the water.

But in their lowered eyes.

A-Yu and Pingping were already filled with despair.

They had buried the body here—Surchat’s body.

Now the police had surrounded this place.

They would find the body even if they had to dig three feet deep.

They could no longer escape their guilt!

And Su Chen and An'an were going to be implicated by the two of them!

Not far away, La Yun stood under an umbrella held by the captain.

Even in this weather, she still wore sunglasses, coldly watching the search work and Su Chen’s family.

She was the winner of this game.

But she couldn't feel any joy.

Because An'an pointing out this place.

Also meant that her son was in grave danger.

La Yun herself didn't even know if she could handle the results of the search!

What if they dug up Surchat’s body.

She might faint on the spot!

And with the search by the police dogs.

Outside the police tape.

The riot of the masses had already begun to simmer! Countless camera flashes went off; clearly, reporters had already arrived at the scene!

Someone shouted loudly:

"You can't touch that! That’s our ancestral grave!!"

Then an agitated resident rushed into the field, trying to stop the police.

But was immediately kicked to the ground by Sang Kun!

He even pulled out his gun and pointed it fiercely! Shouting at the crowd outside the police tape:

"Li Weijie killed someone and buried the body here!"

"Whoever dares to obstruct law enforcement is an accomplice!!"

Under the harsh voice, plus the threat of the gun!

The restless crowd finally suppressed their anger!

And with the arrival of a car.

The person who arrived made the reporters at the scene restless.

And in the distance, Su Chen’s mouth curled into a smile.

The person getting out of the car was Surchat’s father, the mayoral candidate, Docha!

And his arrival.

Also proved the effect of that phone call from Pulang.

Clearly, Docha also felt the pressure.

The fact that these reporters could arrive here so quickly was probably at the instruction of the other mayoral candidate!

Now.

No matter the result, no matter if Surchat could be found in this cemetery!

Docha’s mayoral campaign would definitely be hugely affected!

And inside the cemetery.

A police officer discovered the latest suspicious grave.

"Chief! There’s a problem with this grave!"

Instantly!

Following the officer’s report!

A-Yu turned her head sharply to look at that grave! Her face turned pale!

This one... was exactly the grave where Surchat’s body was buried!

It was also the grave of Uncle Xin, which had just been buried recently!

Finally... it was discovered by the police after all...

Not just A-Yu.

The hearts of all the viewers also sank!

All the efforts had fallen short in the end!

Just a little bit more!

If An'an hadn't spoken out.

Or if La Yun didn't have such great power to use force to torture their family!

Su Chen’s perfect plan would have succeeded!

And with La Yun’s heavy nod.

Countless police officers with shovels rushed to this new grave!

Watching the first shovel go down!

A young man in the crowd shouted with a crying voice:

"That’s my dad’s grave!!"

But his individual riot couldn't affect anything!

Although everyone was angry, Sang Kun had said that a body was very likely buried here! If Surchat’s body was really buried inside, then their interference would truly make them accomplices!

And to the side, Uncle Song began to scold the police’s evil deeds to the reporters!

"Oh my! This Police Chief’s son went missing! The police have no evidence, yet they just arrest people!"

"Look! They must have been beaten! Their faces are full of injuries! They didn't even spare the child!!"

"I’m telling you! It’s that police officer named Sang Kun abusing his power for personal revenge! Li Weijie is a very honest person! He’s a great guy!"

"Li Weijie just offended Sang Kun unintentionally! So he’s retaliating against him!"

"Our boss’s family are all good people! All good people!"

And as the digging progressed.

The coffin inside the grave was finally dug out.

As A-Yu bowed her head and cried, unable to bear the pressure.

And amidst the angry waiting of countless citizens!

The coffin was slowly opened!

And what met everyone’s eyes...

Inside that coffin!

Besides Uncle Xin’s body!

There was also a heavy object wrapped in a sack! It looked so much like a body!

Suddenly!

The hearts of La Yun and Docha sank, falling into despair.

And several police officers pressed Su Chen’s head forward, preparing for him to identify the body! To make him confess his crime!

Under the pouring rain.

Everything was proceeding so quietly!

The hearts of all the viewers in front of the screen had long since lost hope!

Watching the screen as if resigned to fate, preparing to accept everything calmly!

After all, from the beginning, this was a match with a huge disparity in power.

Being able to do what they had done so far was already extremely difficult!

After La Yun tore up the rules of the game, all of this should have been predictable!

And amidst this tense and intense music.

The heavy sack was lifted up.

Several police officers wearing gloves slowly reached into the sack, preparing to uncover it, and also to uncover the truth!

[It’s over.....]

[Sigh... actually, I should have thought of it long ago, La Yun definitely wouldn't follow the rules.]

[You could tell from the start that she was an unscrupulous person!]

[Even if La Yun solves the case like this, she’s destroying her own image!]

[Does she still need an image?]

[It’s a pity for Su Chen.... what kind of brain does he have, to be able to think of such a meticulous plan.... it’s too terrifying!]

[The hardest part is setting up the scheme... we bystanders are only barely understanding it from a god’s-eye view.]

[Forget it, if someone hadn't analyzed it, would you have understood?]

[It’s over "163", the reason good people lose is probably because they are good people.]

Under the heavy music.

In everyone’s gaze.

The raindrops seemed to fall a bit slower!

The sack was slowly uncovered in the officers’ hands.

But the next second.

What followed was a long silence.

Everything disappeared.

Background sound.

The sound of rain.

The shouting of the citizens outside the police tape.

Heavy breathing.

Even the heartbeats of everyone watching this happen!

Countless gazes fell to the ground.

The camera slowly zoomed in.

On the muddy ground.

Underneath that sack... lay a sheep’s carcass!

Thump!

Suddenly!

Everyone present, and even everyone in the live stream, felt a jolt in their hearts!

At this moment!

Everyone felt their scalp tingle!

What... what is going on?!

This sheep... isn't it the one that Sang Kun shot and killed that day?!

In an instant!

La Yun turned to look at Su Chen! In disbelief.

Even A-Yu, in the midst of the huge shock, looked at her husband beside her!

She... she had clearly buried Surchat’s body here!

But now....

And the only one who could do all this... was her husband beside her!

In the live stream.

Everyone was dumbfounded! Their hearts were excited!

[What is going on??]

[Holy crap?!!]

[This.... it should have been Surchat buried here!!!]

[Whoa!! Is this a shocking reversal?!]

[Su Chen must have changed the hiding place of the body!!]

[Too amazing... Su Chen wouldn't have guessed even this, right?!]

[Awesome!! I can only say awesome!!]

[What is called "calculating everything"!! This is the great detective Su Chen!!]

[So where is Surchat now?!]

[Su Chen probably won't let anyone know, except himself; he can keep his mouth shut, others are unstable factors!]

The silence didn't last long!

"That’s not Surchat’s body!!"

Accompanied by a roar from a citizen outside the police tape!

All the citizens instantly rioted!
