Fine beads of sweat oozed out of Chen Ming's forehead, but he still did not stop what he was doing.

Now is not the time to relax. Only when the old man fully recovers can he truly breathe a sigh of relief.

What's more, everything now depends on him, and he absolutely cannot be in any danger.

Finally, as the sun rose, the operation was successful.

At this moment, Chen Ming was so tired that he couldn't open his eyes.

A long-lost smile appeared on the old man's face, and his eyes were shining with vitality and energy.

Although he was a little weak after just waking up, he was still so gentle.

He looked at Chen Ming with gratitude, as if he had a thousand words to say, but in the end it only turned into a simple thank you.

"The Xi family is lucky to have a member like you."

Chen Ming and Xi Muer smiled at each other. This operation not only saved the old man's life, but also deepened the relationship between them.

A couple can work together to overcome all difficulties, but some things are not so easy to deal with.

At this moment in the villa, sunlight shines through the windows onto the ground, illuminating every corner.

"Don't let yourself be consumed all the time during this period. Just lie down in bed for a while. I still have some things to deal with, but I also need to verify some things with you."

Chen Ming knew that the situation outside was indeed very difficult, and he also knew that there were many corpses in that huge pit.

Judging from the clothes and existing traces, these should all be family members.

"But there's no rush. Wait until you're better."

Mr. Xi nodded, his eyes full of relief.

He was well aware of Chen Ming's abilities and responsibilities, and also understood that the "matter" he was talking about must be of great importance.

The fact that he was able to come back in such a short time proves that this matter is not simple.

He slowly lay down and closed his eyes, as if gathering strength to prepare for the next challenge.

Chen Ming walked out of the room, and Xi Muer followed closely behind him.

She looked at Chen Ming's tired but determined back, her heart filled with admiration and gratitude.

She knew that without Chen Ming, there would be no grandfather today, and there would be no future for the Xi family.

Maybe she was very lucky to marry such an outstanding person. If she hadn't received his help over the years, the whole family would have fallen into decline.

Having such a husband is my real luck.

They came to the living room, and Chen Ming described in detail to Xi Muer what he found in the villa.

After hearing this, Xi Muer's face turned pale, and her eyes were full of shock and anger.

She never thought that there was such a terrible secret hidden in the family.

"We must thoroughly investigate this matter and seek justice for those innocent people."

Xi Muer clenched her fists, with a determined light flashing in her eyes.

Chen Ming nodded. He knew that this matter would not be so easy to resolve, but as long as there was determination, there would be no difficulties that could not be overcome.

However, he didn't want Xi Muer to be involved.

He took a deep breath and looked at Xi Muer, his eyes full of trust and encouragement.

"Don't worry, there are some things I can solve easily, but there are some things I really can't solve. But you don't have to worry, after all, everything is within my plan."

He naturally didn't want his wife to worry too much, but some things did take time. Fortunately, he had enough solutions.

"Let's get rid of these bodies first. Then we can determine the identities of these people based on the characteristics of their clothes and other traces."

Chen Ming knew very well that these people were killed by Xiao Zhang, and now Xiao Zhang's whereabouts are unknown. He did not have so much time to track down Xiao Zhang's whereabouts. He could only find out the identities of these people first. Why were these people silenced?

What did they see? Or what did they learn?

"But some bodies have already decayed, and even only a pile of bones are left. How can we prove the identity of these people? This is not an easy task."

Xi Muer was also a little worried and didn't know how to find the answer.

Chen Ming shook his head slightly, his eyes flashing with calmness and determination.

"Yes, the body did leave us many clues. We can first try to find out if there are any remaining fingerprints or DNA samples, and then compare them with the existing family member information."

The Xi family has many branches, and the entire family system is very large, so it is very likely that some family members were killed.

Of course there were some servants, so it is possible that these servants were killed.

In fact, he knew very well that someone from this family must be among them, because the disappearance of some people was of no concern to the host family at all.

If too many servants disappeared, it would attract more attention and expose Xiao Zhang's identity.

He paused and continued, "In addition, the clothes and accessories left on the body may also be key clues. We can compare the style, brand and even degree of wear of these items with the living habits and preferences of the Xi family members."

"But more importantly, we need to delve into these people's backgrounds, their relationships to the family and their position within the family."

Chen Ming's eyes were deep, and he began to constantly consider the feasibility of this matter in his heart.

"Only by understanding this can we more accurately infer why they were silenced."

After hearing this, Xi Muer's eyes flashed with enlightenment.

She nodded: "I understand. I will arrange for someone to conduct a detailed investigation."

Chen Ming smiled and nodded. He knew that Xi Muer was a smart and capable woman, and she would definitely be able to do this well.

Some things can only be investigated through some history, but there are too few clues available now.

But I heard that they do have a family tree, and there are some traces, of course, everything is in the study.

After explaining everything, he quickly went upstairs and came to the door of the study.

He turned and walked towards the study, ready to start making the next plan.

In the study, Chen Ming sat at the desk with a list in his hand.

This is a list of all the members of the Xi family. He needs to carefully study each person's background, relationship with the family, and their status in the family.

Only in this way can he more accurately find out the connection between those who were silenced and their families.

As time passed, Chen Ming's brows became more and more furrowed.

He discovered that all those who were silenced had one thing in common: they had all been involved in some important affairs or decisions within the family.

This made him start to wonder whether these people who were silenced knew some unspeakable secrets of the family?
