Chapter 12 - Chapter 12: Meng

Xu Ruobei's trembling shoulders paused for a moment, and she looked up at Zhong Han. Gu Xiaofan couldn't help sweating, fearing that Xu Ruobei, who had just calmed down, would be stimulated by Zhong Han and collapse again. Although this man's words were polite enough every time, he always went straight to the point when talking about the issues involved, without any euphemism. Didn't he think Xu Ruobei was full of hostility and disgust towards him?

Fortunately, Xu Ruobei didn't burst out with any anger because of Zhong Han's attitude, except for a flash of resentment in her eyes for a moment. She took a few deep breaths, as if to stabilize her emotions, and then her face was ugly, and she raised her head and said to Zhong Han with a steady tone: "If you are willing to understand it this way, I have no objection. I have my position and plan. Even if she is Xuefeng's ex-wife, the legal marriage relationship has been dissolved. I am Xuefeng's legal wife. My husband is in trouble now. No matter what the final result is, I don't want other women to intervene in his affairs except me."

"You just said that you still have a glimmer of fantasy, hoping to receive my call "I called you to tell you that the deceased was not Ren Xuefeng himself. We made a mistake before, right?" Zhong Han didn't care about Xu Ruobei's attitude at all. He looked very interested. "We want to contact Ren Xuefeng's ex-wife. It has nothing to do with whether you need others to interfere in your family affairs. You and Ren Xuefeng have no children since you got married. His brothers, sisters and parents are not in the local area. We need the child born to him and his ex-wife to provide a DNA sample to finally determine whether the deceased is indeed Ren Xuefeng himself." "Is that necessary?" Xu Ruobei's face became even gloomier. "I have cooperated with your work to identify the body under great pressure and fear. Isn't it enough for me to do so?" Is the person who is identified as dead my own husband? That is my husband who I have shared bed with for nearly seven years! I know him better than his children! ""If you put it that way, it's a bit interesting. " Zhong Han nodded, stroking his chin with his fingers, "On the one hand, you said that you are very familiar with your husband, so you are very confident in the result of the identification, and you feel that you will never make a mistake. On the other hand, you said that you have always been lucky and feel that you may have made a mistake. The deceased is not Ren Xuefeng himself. Now I don't want to be confused. Do you have confidence in your identification results? Or, in fact, in the final analysis, everything else is just an excuse. You are just afraid of Ren Xuefeng's past. Wife and children know about his death? ""You are talking nonsense!" Xu Ruobei's face was pale, her hands clenched into fists, staring at Zhong Han, "Why should I be afraid of Xuefeng's ex-wife? You are now throwing dirty water on me, you simply can't understand the different positions between a woman and her husband's ex-wife!""I'm sorry, I really can't understand, because in my opinion, human life is at stake, everything should be based on the position of the deceased. At this juncture, for one's own selfishness, the progress of the investigation is hindered. No matter how affectionate you say, it's all empty talk and can't stand at all. Don't you think so?" Zhong Han smiled at Xu Ruobei, not like comforting, but like a provocation.Gu Xiaofan's palms were sweating. Although she rarely went to the scene because of her timidity, she had quite a lot of experience in contacting the family members of the deceased for questioning and investigation. This was the first time she met someone with such an unscrupulous attitude. She couldn't help but worry in her heart, afraid that Zhong Han really angered Xu Ruobei, and it would end badly in the end.Xu Ruobei's face turned red and white after being told by Zhong Han. She pursed her lips and didn't speak for a long time. Gu Xiaofan wanted to say a few words to comfort her, but Zhong Han stopped him with a stern look. The words got stuck in his throat and he couldn't say them.After a while, Xu Ruobei got up from her chair, took her purse and walked out. Gu Xiaofan wanted to follow her, but was pulled back by Zhong Han. He had to stand there and watch Xu Ruobei walk out of the door with big strides and without looking back. The door was closed behind her with a loud bang, which also made a file cabinet beside the door with a door that was not closed tightly make a sound."That's it, now she's angry and gone." Gu Xiaofan looked at Zhong Han in a frustrated manner, "What you said just now was indeed a bit too harsh. Consider Xu Ruobei's current situation and mood. She is also feeling very uncomfortable now. Which woman would be happy that her husband is in trouble? She must be very upset. If you are more considerate of her, she won't be so angry, and things won't be as awkward as they are now.""Who said things are awkward?" Zhong Han looked at Gu Xiaofan with a smile, "Speaking of which, I also want to ask you, do you often not understand what your current profession and role is? Just like when you chose this line of work, you are always confused?""What do you mean?" Gu Xiaofan frowned in dissatisfaction, although Although her stern face was not lethal, "Of course I know what my profession is, I am a policeman.""Since you know, you should also understand that doing your job well is the real first priority. Your mission is to solve the case, so everything should be aimed at solving the case, and everything else should give way to this goal. Always pay attention to other people's needs and feelings, and help others bear their emotions. This is not what you should do. No one has the ability to be comprehensive. In addition to exhausting yourself, it is easy to lose sight of one thing while focusing on another." Zhong Han shook his head at Gu Xiaofan in disapproval, "Put away your sympathy. This matter is still far from the so-called "stuckness". ""You mean, there is still a chance?" Gu Xiaofan asked."Xu Ruobei will send us the contact information of Ren Xuefeng's ex-wife in a while." Zhong Han said."Why?"Zhong Han did not answer, but walked back to his seat slowly and sat down, leaning back comfortably, ignoring Gu Xiaofan who was waiting for the answer with curiosity. Gu Xiaofan asked a few questions, and seeing that he did not speak, curiosity gradually turned into suspicion."Are you just bragging and guessing?" She looked at Zhong Han with suspicion.Zhong Han just smiled and said nothing. Less than five minutes later, Zhong Han's mobile phone suddenly rang, and the screen showed that he had just received a short message. The short message was sent by Xu Ruobei. The content was very simple, with only a name and a mobile phone number.Zhong Han handed the phone to Gu Xiaofan who was standing aside. Gu Xiaofan quickly took it and was a little surprised when he saw the content on it. He asked eagerly: "How did you do it? How did you know that Xu Ruobei would tell us the contact information of Ren Xuefeng's ex-wife after she left?"Zhong Han did not rush to speak, and reached out to pick up the water cup and was about to drink it, but found that there was not much water in the cup."Give it to me, I'll do it, I'll do it!" Gu Xiaofan thought he was keeping it a secret, so he quickly took the cup from him, ran to the water dispenser to add tea leaves to Zhong Han, poured a cup of hot water and brought it back to him, "Tell me, how did you know that?""I guessed it." Zhong Han took the cup and gave Gu Xiaofan an answer that could hardly be considered an answer."Don't you think this is a bit too confusing?" Gu Xiaofan didn't buy it."I think so, who says it's not!" Zhong Han smiled cunningly, raised the cup and nodded to Gu Xiaofan, "Thank you for the tea!"Gu Xiaofan pouted in dissatisfaction, glared at Zhong Han, took his mobile phone, copied down the contact number on it, and angrily went to the side to make a phone call.As for how Zhong Han was able to be sure that Xu Ruobei would send back the contact information of Ren Xuefeng's ex-wife after leaving in anger, she would naturally not let it go so easily. When she has time later, Gu Xiaofan still plans to get to the bottom of it. However, what Zhong Han said before was also a reminder to her. As a criminal police officer, her first priority is to get to the bottom of the case, so let's put this matter aside until after contacting Ren Xuefeng's ex-wife!
