Chapter 609 Who is the biological father?

The content of the Zhou Li (Rites of Zhou) and the Tangyuan (glutinous rice ball) are basically consistent.

He and Zhao Guangshu were classmates from elementary school to high school, and even in the same class in the first and second years of junior high.

But the two were not familiar with each other.

Zhou Li was a good student, while Zhao Guangshu was the worst student in the class.

After they went to university, the two had even less contact, only seeing each other on the annual Lunar New Year ancestral worship day.

“I was quite surprised that Zhao Guangshu came to see me,” Zhou Li said slowly. “I let him in because we are from the same hometown and were old classmates.”

But he didn't expect Zhao Guangshu to go so far.

Not only did they make some outrageous demands, but they also took his things without permission, and in the end, they beat him up like this...

He Lewei said gently, "Zhou Li, we have already contacted your father and Zhao Guangshu's mother."

“Okay.” Zhou Li nodded calmly. “I believe my dad isn’t that kind of person. He wouldn’t do anything to betray my mom.”

"Get some rest," He Lewei said, and the group left the ward.

As he fastened his seatbelt in the police car, Xiao Xu said, "Zhou Li has a lot of faith in his father. I wonder if his father will ultimately disappoint him."

"It's hard to say." Jiang Yuan sat in the back row, tilting her head to look at the scenery outside the glass window, when the system's voice suddenly sounded in her mind.

Upon hearing the details of the mission, Jiang Yuan's brows furrowed slightly.

Another person has been murdered.

They returned to the police station just in time for lunch, and the group gathered in the conference room to eat boxed lunches.

Around 1:30, Zhou Li's father arrived at the police station.

The information shows that Zhou Li's father, Zhou Yijian, is sixty years old this year, but he himself looks to be at most fifty years old. He wears silver-rimmed glasses and a white shirt, and looks gentle and refined.

Xiao Xu led the person to the conference room.

"Excuse me, officer, how is my son Zhou Li doing?" Zhou Yijian asked, his face full of worry.

Xiao Xu poured him a glass of water and said gently, "Mr. Zhou, we just visited Zhou Li at the hospital this morning. We've hired a caregiver to look after him. He's safe now, so you can rest assured."

Zhou Yijian breathed a sigh of relief, "Good, it's good that Xiao Li is alright now."

Jiang Yuan and Si Heng entered the conference room together.

Xiao Xu introduced, "These two are Captain Si and Consultant Jiang. It was Consultant Jiang who first discovered Zhou Li's murder last night."

"Consultant Jiang, thank you very much." Zhou Yijian stood up and bowed deeply to Jiang Yuan.

"You're too kind," Jiang Yuan smiled slightly. "Mr. Zhou, please have a seat."

Zhou Yijian sat down again, and Si Heng then asked, "Mr. Zhou, do you know Zhao Guangshu?"

“Zhao Guangshu?” Zhou Yijian nodded slightly. “He’s from the same county as us, and he and Xiaoli have been studying at the same school since elementary school.”

Si Heng: "Do you know Zhao Guangshu's mother, Zhao Qinqin?"

“I know her,” Zhou Yijian replied. “She and my wife were junior high school classmates, and we seem to be related by blood, but we don’t usually keep in touch.”

He paused, a hint of doubt in his voice, "Officer, why are you suddenly bringing up Zhao Guangshu and Zhao Qinqin? Is Xiao Li's matter related to them?"

Si Heng said calmly, "The one who harmed Zhou Li was Zhao Guangshu."

Zhou Yijian frowned, his face full of confusion. "Why would he hurt Xiaoli? The two of them never interacted before." "According to the police investigation, Zhao Guangshu once said that he and Zhou Li were half-brothers." Si Heng observed the other party's reaction calmly.

"Half-brothers?" Zhou Yijian frowned even more, his confusion deepening. "I am Xiaoli's father. How could he and Xiaoli be half-brothers?"

"He said that you once got drunk and had sexual relations with his mother, Zhao Qinqin."

Zhou Yijian's face darkened abruptly, and his voice became tinged with anger, "Nonsense! I never get drunk, and I would never have any contact with Zhao Qinqin!"

Growing increasingly angry, Zhou Yijian said in a deep voice, "I have never done anything so wrong! This matter concerns my reputation, and I am willing to pay for a paternity test with Zhao Guangshu myself!"

Just then, there was a knock on the conference room door from the outside.

Meng Xiaokai pushed open the door and walked in, whispering in Si Heng's ear, "Zhao Qinqin has arrived."

"I understand." Si Heng nodded, his gaze returning to Zhou Yijian. "We do want Mr. Zhou and Zhao Guangshu to undergo a paternity test. The criminal investigation team will cover the related expenses. Please leave a sample for the test, Mr. Zhou."

“Okay.” Zhou Yijian nodded solemnly. “I will definitely cooperate.”

"Thank you for your trouble." After saying that, Si Heng glanced at Jiang Yuan, got up and walked towards the door.

Jiang Yuan understood and immediately followed him out.

The two entered another conference room.

Zhao Qinqin sat there, wearing a floral lantern-sleeved shirt, with curly hair dyed burgundy.

The information states that Zhao Qinqin is 57 years old this year, but she doesn't look any younger than Zhou Yijian, who is 60.

"Officer, how is my Guangshu?" Zhao Qinqin said excitedly as soon as she saw the two men enter. "I think you must have made a mistake. My Guangshu would never hit anyone."

Si Heng spoke softly, "Ms. Zhao, hello, may I ask your relationship with Zhao Guangshu?"

"I'm Guangshu's mother," Zhao Qinqin asked anxiously. "Officer, where is my Guangshu?"

"Ms. Zhao, please don't be anxious. There's something I'd like to ask you about." Si Heng looked at her calmly.

Zhao Qinqin frowned. "What is it?"

"According to our investigation, Zhao Guangshu comes from a single-parent family, and you gave birth to him out of wedlock, is that correct?"

"Correct."

"Then may I ask who Zhao Guangshu's biological father is?"

Zhao Qinqin's eyes flickered slightly, and she lowered her gaze. "What... does this question have to do with Guangshu's matter? Can I not answer?"

“Okay.” Si Heng nodded.

Jiang Yuan saw that Zhao Qinqin looked visibly relieved.

"Officer, can I see my Guangshu now?" Zhao Qinqin asked.

Si Heng's thin lips moved slightly as he slowly said, "Zhao Guangshu said that he and Zhou Li are half-brothers. Are you aware of this?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Qinqin's expression changed drastically, a sense of panic and unease flashing through her heart, and her fingertips curled slightly.

Jiang Yuan asked softly, "Ms. Zhao, would you mind telling me what your relationship is with Mr. Zhou Yijian?"

"I..." Zhao Qinqin opened her mouth, but couldn't utter a complete sentence, "I..."

Si Heng continued, "Zhao Guangshu said that Zhou Yijian got drunk, came to your house, and had sex with you. Did you tell Zhao Guangshu about this?"

Zhao Qinqin nervously picked at her fingers, her tone becoming hurried, "Excuse me, I'm here to deal with the matter of my Guangshu hitting someone, I don't want to answer these irrelevant questions."
