The body was transported back to Nancheng by the local police that day.

But because Huo Yuanshi was the murderer of a major case, it must be handed over to the Nancheng police before it can be returned to the Huo family.

Before Huo Chengyao arrived at the city bureau, Huo Mingzheng took Cao Fang and Cao Yuan to claim the body in advance.

All the lights in the morgue were turned on, as bright as day. Huo Minzheng walked in with his long legs. At a glance, he saw the black and wrinkled body bag placed on the table.

Who would have thought that Huo Yuanshi, the grandson of Huo's parents and grandson in the past, would be wrapped up in such a simple package.

Cao Fang stepped forward, opened the zipper of the body bag, and smoothly pulled the zipper to the bottom with a clatter.

"Mr. Huo, this is Huo Yuanshi."

he said over his shoulder.

Just when the police thought that Huo Mingzheng was just coming to take a look, Huo Mingzheng stepped forward and looked condescendingly at the gray and lifeless Huo Yuanshi.

He and Huo Yuanshi had been brothers for thirty years, and their relationship was better than that of other cousins, so Huo Minzheng recognized at a glance that this face was indeed Huo Yuanshi's.

He stretched his hands into the body bag and pulled the bag open to both sides.

"Mr. Huo!" A police officer stepped forward.

Touching a corpse was considered unlucky by powerful people like them.

But Huo Mingzheng is famous for having no taboos. He has no scruples about anything he cannot touch or see. Cao Fang remembered that he had said to the Huo family that he was the end of metaphysics, and it took a lot of hard work not to laugh out loud. .

Huo Minzheng said coldly: "It's okay."

He placed his hand on the side of Huo Yuanshi's face near his ears, and pressed down with his fingertips. This was a sign that the skin was slightly loose and soft, a normal sign that the skin had been soaked in water for a long time.

It cannot be rubbed away. It is a real face with flesh and blood, not a human skin mask.

There was a hole in the shirt near the left chest, and the wound was washed white by the river water. The blood stains could not be seen for a long time, but it was obvious that the torn flesh and clothes were left by bullets.

Huo Minzheng took two steps to the left and grabbed Huo Yuanshi's right hand.

A scar on the wrist was also washed white by the water. The wound was very long. It was deliberately made more obvious in order to confuse the teeth marks from Cao Man's bite.

Step by step, he inspected Huo Yuanshi's body, and finally asked Cao Fang to zip up the body bag.

After walking out of the morgue, he washed his hands three times with disinfectant and told one of the police officers, "Test the DNA."

Cao Fang was stunned.

Was this because he was afraid that Huo Yuanshi would find a substitute in advance to replace him?

But it's not impossible. Huo Yuanshi was too thoughtful. If the flaw hadn't been exposed at the Su family's banquet this time and Mr. Huo had prepared something in advance, I'm afraid Miss Fu would really have been taken away this time.

The police officer was also stunned, "Mr. Huo, is this necessary?"

Huo Minzheng hummed, "It's necessary."

After leaving the morgue, Huo Minzheng got into the car. A black car was parked not far away. He looked out through the car window and saw Huo Chengyao walking tremblingly inside with the support of his bodyguards.

"Secretary Huo was hit too hard." Cao Fang said regretfully.

Huo Minzheng pursed his lips.

Unexpectedly, she learned that Huo Yuanshi had inherited his mother's mental illness, and then saw with her own eyes that his legs had recovered and stood in front of him intact. What should have been a joy to him, he then watched helplessly as Huo Yuanshi died in front of him.

In just half a day, Huo Chengyao seemed to have endured two-thirds of the pain of his life.

Huo Minzheng looked at his back, which had become rickety throughout the day, and his hair, which turned gray overnight, and looked away, "Let's go."

Instead of going back to Mingyu Mansion directly, Huo Mingzheng ordered Cao Fang to drive back to Huo Mansion.

After such a big incident, several children and grandchildren of the Huo family returned, and the entire Huo family fell into a heavy atmosphere.

In fact, Huo Yuanshi's incident could have been suppressed as long as Huo Minzheng said hello to the police, and outsiders would not know that there was a murderer in the Huo family.

But Huo Mingzheng didn't choose to hide it.

The elders in several rooms looked at Huo Minzheng who entered the room, but they were hesitant to speak. Everyone knew Huo Minzheng's temper and did not dare to provoke him easily.

Huo Chengqi glanced at Huo Minzheng, stood up, and said, "Come with me."

In the Huo family, he was the only father who dared to talk to him like this.

Huo Mingzheng followed Huo Chengqi to the flower hall, "Dad."

"You're not hurt, are you?" Huo Chengqi turned and looked at him.

Huo Mingzheng shook his head.

"Did you shoot Ah Shi that day?"

The man frowned.

Huo Chengqi raised his hand to interrupt what he was about to say, "You did nothing wrong. There is no psychological pressure on your uncle. If anything happens, dad will be on your side."

There was a trace of warmth in Huo Minzheng's deep eyes, he curved his lips slightly, and patted his father's arm, "Who is whose backer in the Huo family?"

"Besides," he looked at his father, "my uncle is not that kind of person."

The Huo family arranged Huo Yuanshi's funeral in a low-key manner. After the funeral, Huo Chengyao set off back to Yanjing City.

However, two days later, news suddenly came out that Huo Chengyao had taken the blame and resigned.

Huo Yuanshi made one mistake at a time, and Huo Chengyao blamed himself. He lived a life worthy of the organization and the people, but he gave society a murderer. Even if the organization did not investigate him, he would still be responsible.

As soon as the news came out, some people were happy, while others were sad.

Huo Chengyao was only half a year away from being promoted to another level and becoming one of the important leaders in the country. It was a pity that he suddenly took the blame and resigned.

Only Huo Mingzheng knew that Huo Yuanshi deliberately alienated the relationship between father and son in order to protect Huo Chengyao. From then on, a knot was buried in Huo Chengyao's heart that could never be opened.

After several consecutive days of rain, Nancheng finally had sunny weather on July 1st.

In the early morning, Cao Fang walked towards Huo Mingzheng, who was pruning the remaining branches of the Rouge Rose in the garden, "Mr. Huo, the DNA results are out, it's Huo Yuan Shi."

Huo Minzheng cut off a broken branch with a click, raised his eyes through the floor-to-ceiling window and glanced at Fu Yan who was coming down from upstairs, and said softly: "Okay."

After washing his hands, Huo Mingzheng went into the room to have breakfast with Fu Yan.

The medicine Huo Yuanshi gave Fu Yan that day had been tested by the hospital and found to have no special ingredients. Her mood gradually improved in the past few days.

Glancing at the remaining half glass of milk she put aside, "Drink up."

Fu Yan couldn't help but complain, "It really doesn't taste good."

Huo Mingzheng gently wiped the corners of her mouth with a napkin, leaned over and pressed a kiss on her lips, "Then I won't drink."

Fu Yan chuckled and said, "In order to accommodate me now, you don't even care about the bottom line?"

She knew that in order to take care of her emotions, Huo Minzheng would not force her to do anything she was not willing to do, but before, he was still strict with her when it came to eating, and recently he was completely indulgent.

At this moment, Uncle Luo walked up to Huo Mingzheng and said, "Mr. Huo, there is a man outside the gate who claims to be Huo Yuanshi's attorney."
