False evidence

Chapter 361 Retribution
I didn't ask Officer Wang what Lin Xiaohua said to him before she left.

They were just waiting for police support to arrive so they could set up a tent and remove the coffin.

When the coffin lid was opened, everyone was stunned.

Inside the coffin, Lin Xiaohua's grandmother's body showed no signs of decay, and her eyes were wide open.

The top of the corpse's head was connected to the coffin lid by a piece of something that looked like a withered vine.

The most shocking thing was that there was a complete skeleton in the coffin, and a canvas bag, which, when opened, contained another pile of skeletons.

The forensic team and medical examiner removed the two bodies and asked Officer Wang if he wanted to exhume the old lady's body as well.

Officer Wang said in a hoarse voice, "You need to get out; there's another victim downstairs."

The body was removed, and when the undecayed cushion was lifted, there was indeed another corpse underneath.

That's Sanwazi's silly wife, Hanya.

Officer Wang and I learned through divination that on the third day of Qin Shengming keeping vigil for the old lady alone, he pulled Han Ya's body out of the well and hid it in the coffin!
Faced with irrefutable evidence, Qin Shengming feigned innocence and then claimed that the pain from his injury was unbearable, demanding to return to the hospital.

Unable to conduct a proper interrogation, the police could only send him back to the hospital and place him under special guard.

At daybreak, Pidan and Anxin were released.

Officer Wang said to me in a hoarse voice:
"Forensic examination revealed that the bones in the bag had been corroded by acidic substances. It is inferred that Qin Shengming placed Han Shuiling's body under the bathtub with the intention of turning her into bones in a short period of time. In addition... both Han Shuiling and Han Ya were pregnant. The forensic doctor has taken a sample from Han Shuiling's fetus for DNA comparison with Qin Shengming."

Seeing the anger in Officer Wang's bloodshot eyes, I had a bad feeling.

Sure enough, he continued, "Even if the DNA comparison is successful, it can only prove that the child in Han Shuiling's womb is Qin Shengming's. The old lady died of a heart attack, Xiaohua and Hanya have been dead for twenty years, and Han Shuiling has been dead for nineteen years. Qin Shengming refuses to confess, and the police don't have enough evidence to prosecute him!"

Pidan angrily said, "What do you mean? That scumbag harmed so many people, and you're going to let him go?"

I was silent for a moment, then said to Officer Wang, "I would like to see Qin Shengming again."

In the ward, Qin Shengming had one hand cuffed to the headboard. He clearly heard someone come in, but he turned over and pretended to be asleep with his eyes closed.

Officer Wang gritted his teeth in hatred, but because of his position, he couldn't do anything about it.

I sat down on another empty hospital bed, took out my phone, and checked the time.

"8:52, a few minutes to go."

Qin Shengming still didn't open his eyes and mumbled, "My head hurts, officer. Someone hit me on the head, and my head hurts."

"Trust me, in a few minutes your headache will be gone."

I lit a cigarette and slowly smoked it.

My phone vibrated. I put out my cigarette, turned off the timer, and got up to walk to Qin Shengming.

"It's time to come! Come with me!"

I placed my right hand on Qin Shengming's head and reached into the leather pouch at my waist with my other hand.

Qin Shengming finally opened his eyes: "Officer! Help! Someone is trying to kill me..."

The shouting stopped abruptly, and as his eyes widened, the surrounding environment had already changed.

First, on the third floor of the clinic, in Lin Xiaohua's room.

It later became Lin Xiaohua's maternal grandmother's old house.

When they returned to the clinic, they found themselves in the restroom on the second floor.

Three murders, four lives lost.

The difference this time is that Qin Shengming experienced despair and death from the perspective of a victim.

The scene changed again, and Qin Shengming returned to my side.

At this moment, his face had turned deathly pale, and the muscles in his face were twitching uncontrollably.

"You accuse me of murder, but where's the evidence? Without evidence, what can you do to me?" he roared at me through gritted teeth.

I smiled and gestured towards the hospital bed opposite me.

There was another person on the previously empty hospital bed; it was a girl about the same age as An Xin.

The doctors are removing the resuscitation equipment and covering her with a white sheet.

A middle-aged woman rushed forward, sobbing uncontrollably, and cried out into the connected phone:

"Shengming! Shengming! Jiajia is dead! Jiajia is dead..."

Before the shout had even finished, the woman collapsed onto the girl's corpse and began to convulse.

At the same time, four women appeared behind her.

"what!"

Qin Shengming screamed in agony, "Grandma! Xiaohua! Shuiling! Don't hurt Xiaoping! She's pregnant! She's pregnant! I killed you all, if you want revenge, come find me! Don't hurt my son!"

"Does someone like you deserve to have a son?"

I let go of his hand, took a few steps back, and sat back on the empty hospital bed.

Qin Shengming had already struggled to sit up, glared at me from behind, and after a few heavy breaths, suddenly said, "You hypnotized me? It's fake, it's all fake!"

I said, "You killed your grandmother, your cousin, and Han Shuiling's unborn child. Han Ya is Sanwazi's wife, a generation older than you. Not only are four generations buried in the same grave, but four women are in the same coffin. In feng shui, this is called 'four generations in the same yin.'"

"Willow branches and ivy grow on the coffin, signifying the end of your family line after four generations. Your family was safe and sound before because of the four generations living together in the same grave, and the blessings of your ancestors. Now that the coffin has been lifted and the remains separated, you will not only be childless, but you will also be denied the right to reincarnation after death."

Qin Shengming's lips twitched twice, then he suddenly grinned and said, "Who are you trying to scare?"

Turning to Officer Wang and the other two officers, he said, "Officer, I'm reporting someone for promoting feudal superstition!"

At that moment, the ward door opened, and a police officer and two medical staff walked in.

The officer whispered a few words to Officer Wang.

Officer Wang stared at Qin Shengming and said, "We just received a call. Your daughter, Qin Jia, was in a car accident not long ago and died despite all efforts to save her."

"Ha, do the police lie too?"

"Also, your wife Zhang Ping suffered a stroke due to excessive excitement. She has been rescued and is out of danger, but she lost the baby in her womb."

Qin Shengming's lips twitched even more violently, and he shook his head repeatedly, saying, "You're lying to me! You're telling the truth!"

Officer Wang said in a deep voice, "I have no reason to lie to you, nor will I use the lives and safety of your family to pressure you. Besides, you have already confessed to all your crimes. We have no reason to lie to you."

A police officer turned on the recording device.
"You're my cousin, how could I take your money? I want the house!"

"If you hadn't been biased, I wouldn't have killed Xiaohua. You're the one who killed her!"

Qin Shengming was stunned for a long time, then suddenly struggled and shouted, "This isn't real! You've hypnotized me! This is all fake!"

“Three of our colleagues were present at the same time, and in addition to the audio recording, the entire process was also recorded by a recorder. If you have any objections, please speak to the judge yourself.”

Officer Wang turned to the doctor: "Change the dressing or give me an injection?"

The doctor shook his head, handed him a folder, and said:

"During our examination of patient Qin Shengming, we discovered that he suffers from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, commonly known as Lou Gehrig's disease. It is currently in its early stages, but there is no cure for this disease at present."

"What is ALS? What is ALS?" Qin Shengming suddenly became agitated.

The doctor said, "It is a chronic, neurodegenerative disease that can lead to muscle atrophy and loss of speech and mobility in later stages."

"Ha, karma came a little late, but it's finally here. I now hope you won't be convicted. But I don't want to see you when you have an attack again, because it disgusts me."
