Chapter 17
Chapter 17 — From a 16 Million Yuan Villa to a Secret Buried for Ten Years
When I heard that sentence, I was surprisingly calm. I didn't scream. Don't ask again a second time. The investigator looked at my face and his voice softened a bit.
“Cemetery duty staff discovered someone vandalizing the grave site.”
“When they tried to stop them, the other side ran away.”
“There was a car left behind at the scene.”
“Registration information related to Song Thua Ze.”
The hand that let go of my side slowly tightened.
“Did he escape?”
“Currently it has not been found.”
“The cemetery has been sealed off.”
Hearing this, Khau My Lan's entire body felt like its spine had been pulled out. She fell down on the chair. Mouth muttering non-stop.
“How dare he do that.”
“How could he dig up my mother's grave?”
I looked at her coldly.
“How did he know that thing was in the cemetery?”
Khau My Lan's face turned pale little by little.
“I didn't say in the grave.”
“I just said it's at your mother's place.”
My eyes were sharp as knives.
“Do you think I will believe it?”
Khau My Lan trembled and shook her head.
“I really don't say.”
"That year, I was afraid something would happen, so I hid the memory card under an old tree next to the cemetery management area."
“Later that place was renovated.”
“I was afraid the item would be lost, so I asked someone to put it in a secret compartment behind your mother's tombstone.”
“Only I know this.”
I step by step approached her.
“Last night when Tong Thua Trach forced you to reveal the location.”
“How much did you say?”
Khau My Lan cried until her voice was hoarse.
“I said it's at your mother's place.”
“I said behind the tombstone.”
“I didn't expect it to actually dig.”
I laughed. The laughter was very soft. But it made Khau My Lan tremble all over.
“Unexpected?”
“When she considered the villa my parents left behind as the Song family's ATM, she also said she didn't expect it.”
“When she led someone into my dressing room to get my bag, she said she was just taking a look.”
“You kept that memory card hidden for so many years because of Tong Thua Trach.”
“Now I say it's unexpected.”
“Khau My Lan.”
“How much money is an unexpected sentence from you worth?”
Khau My Lan hugged her face. Don't dare look at me.
“I was scared then.”
“Tong Kien Minh is dead.”
“Thua Trach is still young.”
“I'm afraid if it gets exposed.”
“The entire Song family will be finished.”
I stared at her.
“So you let my parents die unjustly.”
Khau My Lan suddenly raised her head. Tears streamed down his face.
“It's not like I hurt them.”
“Duong Vy, it's really not me.”
“That day your mother came to find me.”
“I was also scared and scared.”
“She said that in the Nam Giang project, there were people who swapped poor quality materials.”
“After something happened on the project side, someone wanted to put all the responsibility on your father.”
“She also said Tong Kien Minh once received money.”
“Help those people come forward and make connections.”
“I didn't dare admit it at that time.”
“But your mother slipped me a memory card.”
“Says there are transfer records inside.”
“There is a recording.”
“There is also a piece of vehicle journey data.”
My chest felt like it was soaked in ice water.
“What happens after that?”
Khau My Lan's lips trembled.
“Then she left.”
“The next day your parents had an accident.”
“When I watched the news, my whole body felt numb.”
“Not long after that, Tong Kien Minh also fell ill.”
“Then quickly passed away.”
My voice was so cold that I no longer had any emotions.
“Tong Kien Minh Died of illness?
Khau My Lan's eyes avoided.
“The hospital said so.”
I immediately asked:
“Which hospital?”
Khau My Lan read out a name. I turned to the investigator next to me.
“Write it down for me.”
The investigator nodded. Khau My Lan cried and clutched the armrest of the chair.
“I hid the memory card because I wanted to wait until my child was a little older before giving it to me.”
“But then I married Thua Trach.”
“I don't even dare say it.”
“I'm afraid if you know the Song family is involved.”
“I won't need Thua Trach anymore.”
I looked at her. Only coldness remained in his eyes.
“So you just hid something related to my parents' lives.”
“Just let me marry into the Song family.”
“Just took a look at the house my parents left behind.”
“Khau My Lan.”
“She calculates others to the core.”
Khau My Lan opened her mouth. But couldn't utter a word. I didn't look at her again. But turned around and walked out. Ha Tri Chu was waiting at the end of the hallway. His coat still had some dew from the night. Obviously he just ran over in a hurry.
“I'll go with you to the cemetery.”
“Bring Khau My Lan with you.”
Ha Tri Chu frowned.
"She is currently the person involved in the case, it is unlikely that she will be able to leave here conveniently."
I turned my head to look at the investigator.
“She knows where it's hidden.”
“Song Chengze may not have gotten that thing yet.”
“If the scene needs to identify the location, she must go.”
After a short discussion, the investigation side agreed to let Khau My Lan go to the cemetery under supervision. Hearing that we had to go to the cemetery, her legs were weak.
“I'm not going.”
“I don't dare meet your mother and child.”
I stopped walking. Turn your head to look at her.
“You don't dare meet her?”
“Then how dare you spend her daughter's money?”
“How dare you step on the carpet she chose?”
“How dare you say her photo is unlucky?”
Khau My Lan was asked until her face turned pale. I looked straight at her. Each word rang out coldly.
“Even if I have to kneel.”
“You also have to kneel in front of her and explain everything clearly.”
When the convoy reached the cemetery, the eastern sky had begun to brighten. The outside of the grave site has been cordoned off. The management room's lights are still on. I got out of the car. A cold wind immediately hit. But I didn't put on any more clothes. Just step by step towards my parents' burial grave. The bouquets of flowers in front of the tombstone were trampled. New scratches appeared on the edge of the stone slab. A piece of land was dug up. Like a torn wound. I stood still. Eyes are not red. No tears either. Just sit down slowly. Pick up each white chrysanthemum that has been trampled on. When Khau My Lan was brought to the front of the grave, she suddenly fell to her knees on the ground. While crying, he said:
“Master, I'm sorry to you.”
I didn't turn back.
“Don't call her in-laws.”
“The Song family is not worthy.”
The investigator asked Khau My Lan to show the location of the secret compartment. She trembled and pointed behind the tombstone. There is a small stone slab there that is difficult to recognize. Cemetery staff carefully removed the stone. Inside is empty. Khau My Lan cried out loudly.
“No way!”
“Obviously I left it here!”
I slowly closed my eyes. Tong Thua Trach already got it. Right at that moment. Outside the cemetery suddenly sounded a fierce argument. Captain Vuong walked quickly.
“Miss Road."
“We caught someone at the back gate.”
“He had a memory card on him.”
“But not Tong Thua Trach.”
