"Are you Dong Xinghai's parents?" Gu Xiaofan's seat was close to the door. He saw two people standing at the door, hesitating whether to come in or not, and quickly stood up to ask.
The two nodded, and Gu Xiaofan motioned them to come in and took them to sit in the office.
Dong Xinghai's parents looked to be in their fifties. Dong's father had a square head and a big face, two big eyes, and his eyeballs slightly protruded from his eye sockets. His hair was a little bald. Dong's mother also had a pair of big eyes, a wide face, and a plump figure. Her appearance showed the traces of time, but her dress still showed that her family was well-off. From the appearance of these two people, compared with the photos of Dong Xinghai before his death, it was found that Dong Xinghai, who was thin, narrow-faced and narrow-eyed, looked very different from the couple. If it weren't for the fact that these two people appeared at the door of the criminal police team at this critical moment and their age was consistent, I'm afraid Gu Xiaofan would never have guessed that they were Dong Xinghai's parents at the first time.After looking at their IDs, they were finally sure that they were indeed Dong Xinghai's parents. Gao Xuan's attitude changed from waiting to watching at the beginning, and he immediately called Gu Xiaofan: "You rushed here so quickly, it must be very hard, right? Xiaofan, go and pour two glasses of water for the two of you."Gu Xiaofan nodded, turned around and was about to go, Zhong Han had already poured two glasses of water before her and handed them to Dong Xinghai's parents, and took out a business card and handed it to Dong's father. He introduced him to him and said: "My name is Zhong Han, this is Officer Gu Xiaofan, the matter of Dong Xinghai jumping off the building is now our responsibility, oh, yes, I forgot to introduce, this is our colleague Gao Xuan."Dong Xinghai's father nodded to them, and Dong Xinghai's mother looked anxious, holding her handbag tightly with both hands, hesitating again and again. Only with the last bit of luck. He asked, "Is it really my son Xinghai? Are you sure?""The current evidence shows that the identity of the deceased should be Dong Xinghai. But we notified you to come here for further confirmation. If it can be further confirmed, there may be some other things that need to be communicated with you again." Zhong Han replied."Okay. Then do we have to go and identify him?" After listening to Zhong Han's words, Dong's father sighed, frowned and nodded.Zhong Han pointed at Gao Xuan: "Yes, Officer Gao will take you to the forensic doctor."Gao Xuan's eyes quickly glanced at Zhong Han, without any expression on his face, and nodded to Dong's father: "Then come with me to take a look.""No, don't go, I'll go!" Dong's father was about to get up, but Dong's mother, who was sitting next to him, grabbed him."I'll go. I'm afraid you can't bear the stimulation..." Dong's father hesitated and stood there."I have to go for this. No one knows my son better than me..." Dong's mother sniffed, wiped away the tears from her eyes with the back of her hand, and said firmly.Hearing her say this. Dong's father had to compromise, nodded, and said to Gao Xuan: "Then I'll leave this officer Gao to you. Please help take care of him later."Gao Xuan agreed and took Dong's mother out of the office. Dong's father sat back in his chair and exhaled heavily. The expression of worry on his face became more obvious. He was about to say something when his cell phone rang. This forced him to change his mind temporarily. He nodded apologetically to Zhong Han and Gu Xiaofan, picked up the phone, and walked to the other end of the office. From the content of the conversation, it sounded like the company he was running had encountered some difficulties, which gave him a headache."You, what can I say about you?" While waiting for Dong's father to finish the call, Zhong Han looked at Gu Xiaofan helplessly and whispered to her, "Do you really want to be a front-line criminal police?""Yes, what's wrong with me?" Gu Xiaofan didn't understand where his anger came from."If you really want to, learn to correct your attitude in the first place, and don't be ordered around like a handyman before you can do anything." Zhong Han was very helpless about her lack of awareness.Gu Xiaofan understood now: "Are you talking about Gao Xuan asking me to pour water for Dong Xinghai's parents just now? That's nothing, right? It's just a little help. In the end, you poured the water, and no one ordered you to do it.""The same thing, done in different ways at different times, will have different effects. You were ordered to do that, and I was called to seize the initiative," Zhong Han glanced at Gu Xiaofan helplessly, "Forget it, let's talk about it later. Just remember not to be sold out and help others count money."Gu Xiaofan wanted to say something to him after hearing what he said, but thinking that it was indeed not a suitable occasion, he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his throat.After a while, Dong's father hung up the phone, walked over with a bad look on his face, and sat back in his original seat."Is the business in trouble? It's quite tricky?" Zhong Han asked according to his own judgment.Father Dong nodded, sighed, and took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket. After hesitating for a moment, he looked up at Gu Xiaofan and the others: "You don't mind, do you?""No, please do as you please." Gu Xiaofan shook his head.Father Dong lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and light gray smoke came out of his nose. He twisted the burning cigarette between his fingers subconsciously and sighed: "It's true that good fortune never comes alone, and misfortune never comes alone... The business matters were already enough to make people anxious, and I didn't know if I could successfully turn things around. I didn't expect that at this juncture, Xinghai would also have problems...""When did the family business have problems? Did Dong Xinghai know the situation at home?" Gu Xiaofan couldn't help but make some associations when he heard this, wondering if it was a rich kid facing the family's economic crisis and felt that he couldn't bear it, so he couldn't think of it and committed suicide."He doesn't know. Even if I tell him, he can't help. So neither his mother nor I have told him," Dong's father answered. "The child was not with us originally. He lived with his grandmother for a long time. After the old lady passed away, he lived alone, so he rarely asked about the things at home.""How much do you and his mother know about Dong Xinghai's daily life?" Zhong Han asked.Dong's father looked embarrassed and hesitated for a while before saying: "Actually... I am not Xinghai's biological father, I am his stepfather. Xinghai's father and I knew each other. We resigned from our original units and started business together. We had a very good relationship. Later, when Xinghai was six or seven years old. His father originally had a bad heart, and one day he suddenly had a heart attack and passed away. He passed away very suddenly. He left Xinghai and his mother orphans and widows, so I took care of them for my old friend. Later... I was also single, and Xinghai's mother was also alone, so the two of us got together.""You mean, your relationship with Dong Xinghai is relatively tense or distant, so you don't know much about his affairs?" Zhong Han tried to ask."No, no, no, that's not what I meant," Father Dong shook his head. He quickly clarified for himself, "I can say that I really treat Xinghai as my own son, because I was married once before, but later my wife died in an accident, and I have no children of my own. After I married Xinghai's mother, his mother discussed with me whether we could not have other children. Although the business was already picking up at that time, and we could afford to raise another child, she felt that if the child lost his biological father at such a young age, if he had a half brother or sister, the emotional damage might be too great. I think this makes sense, and the child was six or seven years old at the time, which was the time when he began to be a little disobedient and rebellious, so I agreed. I treat Xinghai absolutely as if he were my own son. When he was young, He was a little bit repulsive to me, but gradually got better. However, his grandmother was worried that we were all busy and I was not the biological father, and the child would not be taken care of if he stayed with us, so she took the child away. So until Xinghai grew up, our relationship was relatively harmonious, but how should I put it... a little distant, a little polite, not particularly close. I only know his situation roughly, and I don't know if his mother knows more about it than I do in private. "Zhong Han nodded, showing his understanding: "I heard that you helped him get the job he is doing now?""Yes, the boss of the company where he is interning is a little bit of a friend to me. Xinghai's mother and I have only one child, and Xinghai is also a child He is 26 or 27 years old, not too old, but not too young either. If it were someone else, he might have married and had children, but he still hasn't grown up. The family company is still counting on him to take over in the future. His mother and I also want to enjoy a comfortable life when we are old, so we asked him to go to the company to train. After training, he can take over the family business in the future. "Dong's father sighed sadly, "Originally, I thought that no matter what, I had to get through this difficult time. I had to hand over the business that my old friend and I started together to the child. As a result, the difficulties in the business have not been overcome yet, and the child has had an accident first. ""Dong Xinghai is usually financially well-off. "Is he rich?" Gu Xiaofan asked, "Has he ever had any worries about life pressure?""Probably not. We are afraid that the child will be uncomfortable without us, so we have always let him do whatever he wants financially. His credit card has always been paid by his mother and me. Anyway, we have the ability, so we just want the child to live comfortably." Dong's father shook his head, puzzled, "When I went to the bank to pay his debts a few months ago, I saw that he bought a lot of girl's things on the detailed bill. I also told his mother that this child must be in love. We discussed it many times. If he is really in love, what should we do about marriage in the future? As a result... This child is not happy because of a breakup, right?"
