Uncle Shazhu, a simple-minded man in a courtyard house, persuades people with reason.

Gunfire was sporadic in Beiping, mostly from arresting and killing spies. For He Ping'an, however, everything was peaceful, and he even had time to take his little girl out to play!

"Xiao Su, it's so lively up ahead! Let's go see... let's go see!" At the entrance of the Public Security Bureau, the little girl pointed to the crowd ahead, her tiny body jumping and thrashing about in He Ping'an's arms!

Little Yushui, who will soon be four years old, is already showing signs of becoming a little devil...

Despite her clear speech, she insisted on calling him "Xiao Su, Xiao Su," and He Ping'an had patiently corrected her time and again. Later... whenever he got so angry he jumped up and down, the little girl would watch the show with her toes pointing out the toes.

He Ping'an was happy to cooperate, as his son Yu Shui had been clever since childhood!

Seeing He Ping'an in his military uniform, the onlookers enthusiastically made way for him.

He Pingan handed the raindrops to Bai Ling and heard a clear, heartbreaking voice say, "Little Aunt, Xiangxiang!"

"What happened?"

Zheng Chaoyang wiped the fine sweat from his forehead, shook his head with a wry smile:

"This old man's daughter committed suicide at home, and he can't accept it, insisting that she was murdered. But at the scene, there were no signs of a struggle, not even a tearing injury. Moreover, the forensic autopsy found no signs of poisoning!"

Zheng Chaoyang didn't know if he was lucky or unlucky. Logically speaking, since his older brother was a spy, he should at least be suspended from his duties for investigation.

The key point is Zheng Zhaoshan… He killed Japanese devils during the War of Resistance. After the victory, he went deep into hiding and didn't have time to commit any evil deeds. As for the Henan Military Intelligence Station and Wan Linsheng? They were both Kuomintang agents, with merits but no faults.

After his identity was exposed, he helped the police arrest the Chamber of Commerce president, Mr. Da, and successfully destroyed one of the more than 100 large-scale spy organizations in Beiping.

Japanese devils, traitors, spies—Zheng Chaoshan did all the work of the Communist Party. If we're really talking about military merits, aside from his identity as a Kuomintang secret agent, he was more of a Communist than the Communists themselves.

Ultimately, his merits and demerits canceled each other out, and his file was cleared of his status as a spy. Zheng Chaoyang was thus spared implicated and could continue working as a police officer. It was a happy ending for everyone!

Zheng Chaoyang's words completely enraged the old man who was kneeling and crying out for justice. He ripped off his mourning clothes, stood up, pointed at Zheng Chaoyang's nose, and began to curse him:

"You're talking nonsense! My daughter wouldn't commit suicide. The murderer was policeman Sang Liuji. You officials are protecting each other, favoring that black dog. You're no better than anyone else, and you still want to go to the government? Bah!"

"Hello, I'm a reporter from Dagongbao..."

He Ping'an watched for a while and was also quite puzzled. Logically speaking... Zheng Zhaoshan had already turned over a new leaf, and everyone who needed to be arrested had been arrested. Without a villain, where did the plot come from?

Curiosity aside, the matter still needs to be addressed. Public opinion is paramount!

"Sir, please don't get agitated! My name is He Ping'an. The person who said 'go to the government if you have problems' is... well, the one you all keep calling 'the White-Faced Yama.' I'll personally handle this!"

With over 1000 episodes, Conan can kill and solve cases. After calming the victim, He Ping'an faces the crowd.

"This old gentleman is protesting his innocence, and I'm prepared to handle this matter publicly. I'll trouble everyone, including this reporter, to keep an eye on things. Don't worry, my help won't be in vain! Lunch is on the police side today; everyone can eat as much as they want!"

In the office, He Ping'an received the evidence and everyone's analysis from Zheng Chaoyang... The doors and windows were tightly closed, with no signs of forced entry—a locked room! No tearing, no struggle, no poisoning—a perfect suicide!

"Suicide? Have you ever seen a good person commit suicide and then laugh so happily?"

He Ping'an pointed at the deceased's photo, his sharp gaze sweeping over every police officer present, not even sparing Luo Chengjun. "Luo Chengjun, Luo the Cannon, is this the man you command?"

Bai Ling retorted, "Ping An, this isn't a joke. Medically speaking, when a person is alive..."

"I know, you mean convulsions! If it were convulsions, the facial expression should be stiff. Look at the deceased, how natural the expression is!"

He Ping'an ignored Bai Ling and pointed at Hao Pingchuan: "And you, what nonsense are you spouting? Dying laughing on the battlefield, is that suicide?"

"Of course, we can't rule out the possibility that some people commit suicide while laughing. But such people either sacrifice themselves for righteousness or have no will to live; their facial expressions show longing, fearlessness, and liberation. But look at this one, just pure joy!"

He Ping'an angrily pounded on the photo: "Was the deceased a pervert? Did he think suicide was some kind of happy thing?!"

Zheng Chaoyang whispered a reminder, "She's not a psychopath, but she's not a good person either. She's mentally ill!"

He Ping'an glared at Zheng Chaoyang, "Knowing that she is a mental patient, have you investigated whether her suicide was caused by medication, or whether someone took advantage of her illness to induce her to commit suicide?"

The deceased's house was so clean; was it always like this, or was it specially cleaned on the day of death? Also, did the deceased exhibit any strange behavior or utter any nonsensical statements before death? Have you investigated these aspects?

Seeing everyone bow their heads in silence, He Ping'an weakly pointed to the door, "Get out...investigate!"

"Multiple doors!"

"Master He!"

He Ping'an sighed, "The new China is not the old society. The new China values ​​reason, not personal connections. If you believe something is reasonable, you must learn to stand by it! Go..."

Duomen was taken aback, then left, moved.

He Ping'an didn't take it seriously. How could a seasoned veteran change his lifelong principles just because of a few words from him? Take it slow; someone like Duomen deserves more patience.

Luo Chengjun noticed He Ping'an's thoughtfulness, and after everyone left, he joked:

"Everyone says you're a precocious child, a lawless killer. But I think you're quite capable at political work!"

"Tch... You think everyone's like you, always yelling and shouting at people without any shame!"

Having taken on the task, he naturally wanted to do it perfectly. Taking advantage of a break in the investigation, He Ping'an, carrying Xiao Yushui, plunged into the crowd waiting for their meal... taking the opportunity to promote his idea that people should turn to the government if they had any problems.

They were talking back and forth, turning what should have been a peaceful case of seeking justice for the people into a lively chat. Luckily, the old man was supervising Zheng Chaoyang and his team's investigation; otherwise, seeing this scene might have really made him angry enough to do something terrible!

Two hours later, the group of people who went out to investigate the case returned with a middle-aged man in their arms.

"Since it's public oversight, let's say it in front of the public. Communist Party members aren't afraid of losing face, much less making mistakes!" He Ping'an waved his hand, stopping the group from going inside to speak.

Several people took turns explaining the case, stating that it wasn't suicide but also not a premeditated murder. The killer really was Sang Liuji, as the old man had mentioned!

Sang Liuji is a gambling addict; when he's broke, he goes home and robs. When Zhong Chunhong refused, Sang Liuji, in a fit of rage, claimed that Zhong Chunhong's older brother missed her. He then claimed that Zhong Chunhong developed a mental illness after unintentionally causing her brother's death…

The perpetrators were punished, the victims were comforted, the onlookers got a good meal, and the reporters had a story—no one came for nothing. Even Liu Kangzhan, who was universally disliked, gained something…
