My daily mountain driving, I met a fox at the beginning and got married

Zhang Hao responded with a smile, saying it was fate, and then asked how far the case had progressed.

The head of the major crimes unit said with a wry smile, "He refuses to say anything and has even contacted a lawyer. If we can't get anything out of him today, it will probably be very difficult to get anything out of him later, according to procedure."

"Weren't we caught red-handed with both witnesses and physical evidence?"

Zhang Hao asked with a smile. In fact, he already knew something about the matter, but he didn't want to reveal it directly.

Sometimes it's quite amusing to see the other person's self-righteous, clever attitude.

“Although we have evidence, we still need to get the suspect to confess. Most importantly, Mr. Chen insists that there must be other accomplices behind this person, and we think so too. So we want to ask for more details to see if we can confirm our guess.”

"Evidence? These so-called elites are experts at destroying evidence; after all, they've always been quite adept at it."

Zhang Hao gave a pointed reminder.

Luo Shui remained silent throughout, not uttering a word.

"Mr. Zhang, is there anything I can do for you?"

"I came here to check on the progress of the case. But judging from the current situation, with the evidence you have, the only person you can catch is Wei Zhiyuan, right?"

As Zhang Hao asked the question, he couldn't help but sigh.

He originally thought he could find out the real mastermind, but who knew that the other party was hiding even deeper than he expected.

"Yes, Mr. Zhang, is there something you want to remind me of?"

After learning about the situation, Zhang Hao immediately lost interest in staying any longer. He waved goodbye and reminded Zhang Hao before leaving, "You'd better be careful about things like murder to cover up a conversation."

Upon hearing this, the head of the serious crimes unit immediately became serious. After thanking him, he promptly rearranged the personnel guarding Wei Zhiyuan to ensure that no accidents would occur.

Luo Shui went outside and, after confirming that no one else was following them, asked, "Mr. Zhang, aren't you going to take any measures to protect Wei Zhiyuan?"

"Haha, have you seen a news report?" Zhang Hao didn't answer her question directly, but instead asked a seemingly unrelated question.

Luo Shui shook her head, indicating that she hadn't seen it: "Mr. Zhang, what exactly are you trying to say?"

“A driver from our country illegally crossed the border and was involved in a car accident. He died a horrible death, and his body was never properly preserved.”

Zhang Hao said with a smile.

"Driver?" This word immediately caught Luo Shui's attention: "Is it Chen Zixuan's previous driver?"

"That's right, it's the same driver who tried to murder Chen Zixuan before. He died in a car accident after illegally crossing the border abroad. Wei Zhiyuan was the one who arranged this incident."

Zhang Hao snapped his fingers, and a moment later, a transparent soul floated to his side. This soul was extremely weak, as if it might dissipate completely at any moment.

Under the shade of the tree, the driver saw Zhang Hao and immediately knelt down, pleading, "Master, please help me pass on! I really know I was wrong! I don't want to be a bound spirit anymore! I want to be reborn as a human! Even if I have to endure the torment of the eighteen levels of hell, I'm willing!"

So-called low-level bound spirits are those whose soul energy is insufficient, whose souls are relatively weak at the time of death, and who also have heavy resentment. As a result, they are bound to the place of death and will relive their experiences before death again and again.

Having repeatedly experienced the agony of being hit by a car and killed, the driver had completely broken down. It wasn't until a paper crane flew before his soul and transformed into a drop of clear water that he was drawn back to his homeland.

Zhang Hao originally only wanted to send a message using origami cranes to ask the driver to come back as a witness, but he didn't expect it to bring the driver's soul back directly.

It seems that Wei Zhiyuan is even more ruthless than he imagined.

"If they really start fighting amongst themselves, scheming against each other and shifting blame, it's part of their retribution. I'd better not get involved."

Zhang Hao stretched out his fingertip, and in the sunlight, his fingertip seemed to gather the sunlight, gradually emitting a light the size of a soybean.

Zhang Hao directed the light to the center of the driver's forehead, and the driver's soul instantly became much clearer, no longer as weak as before, as if it might dissipate at any moment.

"If I could, I hope to be a good person in my next life and never get involved in these things again..." The driver's soul bowed deeply to Zhang Hao, and then left with the Black Impermanence who came to lock his soul.

As Luo Shui watched the ghost gradually disappear into the distance, she couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Zhang, what will happen to that ghost next?"

"Given the crimes he committed, he will probably suffer in the first level of hell."

Zhang Hao wasn't entirely sure either, since he wasn't the one judging the ghost.

"Mr. Zhang, what do you think their next move will be?"

"Who knows? It's nothing more than passing the buck and shifting the blame."

"Mr. Zhang, what you're saying makes me want to punch you."

That night, Wei Zhiyuan, who was imprisoned, drifted off to sleep amidst a jumble of thoughts.

In his dream, Wei Zhiyuan felt it was very strange, as if he were in the luxurious mansion of the Chen family.

The servants and maids in the house would call him "Master" in unison as soon as they saw him, treating him as the master of the house.

Lu Yuxuan waited quietly for him in the hall. When he came in, a gentle smile bloomed on her face: "Congratulations, you have finally gotten what you wanted."

Wei Zhiyuan was overjoyed, excitedly surveying his surroundings. Had he truly obtained what he had dreamed of? Was this mansion truly his?
Lu Yuxuan smiled and looked at him: "However, there are some things you have to do. Only in this way can you rightfully possess all of this."

Wei Zhiyuan looked at her, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "So how do you want me to cooperate?"

"It's actually very simple, you just need to do as I say..."

Lu Yuxuan leaned close to his ear and whispered. A moment later, Wei Zhiyuan's expression changed.

He was furious and flew into a rage, shouting, "You're clearly trying to make me a scapegoat! You want to betray me to save yourself? Let me tell you, absolutely not! Even if I die, I'll drag you down to hell with me!"

Faced with the furious Wei Zhiyuan, Lu Yuxuan patiently comforted him: "Don't be anxious, let me finish what I have to say."

Wei Zhiyuan sneered repeatedly, not wanting to listen to her nonsense at all, and interrupted her directly: "You just want to use me, to make me take all the blame, so that you can clear your name and get that old man to trust you again."

If he actually does what she wants, in the end he will not only fail to get everything he wants, but will also end up with nothing.

He would never do a deal that's clearly a losing proposition.

"You're just too impatient. What's so difficult about admitting to these charges? All the evidence points to you now, so whether you confess or not, the outcome is the same. If you confess, I can appease that old man for a while, and once I get everything from him, I'll use my connections and influence to get you out. It's a win-win situation for us, isn't it?"

Lu Yuxuan calmly explained her plan.

Wei Zhiyuan remained silent, his resistance quite evident.

"I was only able to meet you in my dream because of the little devil's magic. This magic won't last long, so give me a clear answer right now." Wei Zhiyuan stared intently at Lu Yuxuan.

"No, I don't want to be a scapegoat. Besides, I know you too well. If I really take the blame, you won't save me; you'll kick me while I'm down and make sure I'm proven guilty. After all these years, don't I know you?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuxuan smiled and didn't waste any more words.

I originally wanted to coax this guy and make him less resistant, but he was completely uncooperative, so there was nothing I could do but leave it at that!

Lu Yuxuan smiled and said to the air, "Baby, just do as Mommy told you before."

A childish voice came from the air. To Wei Zhiyuan's horrified gaze, a chubby thing appeared in the air and then slowly grew facial features and hands and feet.

Suddenly, in the middle of the night, Wei Zhiyuan woke up with a start. He sat up abruptly and demanded to confess.

The prison staff quickly made arrangements.

Wei Zhiyuan remained calm and admitted to everything he had done, taking all the blame upon himself.

"He framed Young Master Chen Anshui, then hired someone to kill him, then attempted murder, and even falsified accounts at the company..."

He was like an emotionless machine, calmly recounting the various crimes he had committed.

The staff member in charge of recording the conversation was dumbfounded.

That man is really ruthless.

After the record was completed, the staff member asked repeatedly, "Are you sure you've explained everything clearly?"

"That's right, I did everything myself. I couldn't take the pressure here anymore, so I just confessed. Don't ask me anymore, my answer will be the same no matter what."

After making a record, the staff sent him back to prison.

In the morning, the head of the Major Crimes Unit arrived at the department, intending to check on the progress of the case. As soon as he entered, he saw several subordinates scrambling around, looking flustered and panicked.

"What's wrong with you?"

When the team leader arrived, the subordinates were overjoyed, as if they had seen a savior. They immediately surrounded him and began to report the situation all at once.

"Boss, something terrible has happened! We went to check early this morning and found that Mr. Wei had hanged himself with his shirt!"

The fact that this happened right under his nose left the head of the serious crimes unit utterly furious and bewildered. Without a word, he launched into a tirade: "Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on him 24/7? What's wrong with you? How could you let him hang himself right under your noses? Are you all blind?"

In the entire hall, a dozen people stood in a row, each with a guilty look on their face, heads bowed, not daring to breathe.

They knew their boss's temper all too well; if they were interrupted while he was swearing, they might get beaten up, so it was best to just shut up.

The team leader cursed for more than ten minutes, until his mouth was dry, before he finally managed to stop.

"Boss, this matter is actually very strange. In the end, I don't think it's really our fault."

The person who was in charge of keeping an eye on Wei Zhiyuan last night stepped forward with a stiff upper lip and began to explain the ins and outs of the matter.

The head of the Major Crimes Unit waved his hand, telling them to take him to the scene.

Upon arriving at the scene, they saw a body covered with a white sheet on a stretcher, and a rope made of twisted white shirts hanging from a ceiling shelf next to it.

A gust of wind blew by, and the rope swayed back and forth, exuding an indescribable sense of terror.

Whether it was psychological or not, a soft chuckle suddenly broke out in the conference room. The sound was like a child giggling, faint and indistinct.

Everyone present was startled and shuddered, and the head of the Major Crimes Unit's expression changed instantly.

The sound disappeared in a short while, as if the snickering that everyone had just heard was just a hallucination.

The people present were trembling with fear, and it took several seconds before someone mustered the courage to break the silence.

“That night, this guy suddenly said he wanted to confess, so we went to take his statement. When we came back after taking his statement, he was asleep, and we didn’t think anything was wrong. But then… for some reason, the colleague on night watch fell asleep, and when he woke up at dawn, he saw that Wei Zhiyuan had hanged himself.”

If he hadn't heard that snickering sound earlier, as the team leader, he certainly wouldn't have believed such nonsense, since it sounded like a deliberate attempt to shirk responsibility.

But now that he had heard the snickering with his own ears, and after this experience, he quickly came to believe it.

He didn't say anything more, waved his hand, and said wearily, "I'll handle this. It's really not your responsibility."

Those guys breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, their boss believed them; otherwise, their performance bonuses would probably have been completely deducted.

Zhang Hao, who had just gotten up, suddenly received a phone call.

“Mr. Zhang, I’m so sorry. You warned me before, and I took precautions, but they still managed to get away with it. There are things involved in this case that I really can’t get involved in or handle. Mr. Zhang, when would be a convenient time for you to come over?”

Upon hearing this, Zhang Hao knew something had happened over there, and thought to himself, "The person behind this really acted quickly."

"I'll be right there, please wait a moment."

Zhang Hao hung up the phone, changed his clothes, and woke up Luo Shui: "Let's go, something happened at the prison. Wei Zhiyuan confessed his crimes and then committed suicide. We need to go and investigate."

Upon hearing this, Luo Shui jumped off the sofa, her face filled with disbelief: "So fast?"

"There's nothing we can do, they're ruthless enough."

Zhang Hao said meaningfully.

In fact, Zhang Hao was absolutely right; Lu Yuxuan was indeed ruthless.

An Yuan pushed the food cart and personally delivered breakfast to Lu Yuxuan's room. The sounds of children laughing and Lu Yuxuan soothing them could be heard from inside.

An Yuan was not surprised at all. In fact, even if he was terrified inside, he had to pretend to be nonchalant.

"Breakfast is here, Madam," An Yuan said softly.

Lu Yuxuan waved her hand, signaling him to leave.

"Mom, I've done everything you asked me to do. See, am I your best child?"

The vengeful spirit looked like a ghost baby, which was quite eerie, but the words it spoke were innocent and naive.

It seemed completely unaware that what it was doing was wrong; it just wanted its mother to like it. (End of Chapter)
