Names: Uncle Zhao Mengsheng, Father-in-law Pei Yihong

Zhang Qi shook his head. "I can't be sure."

Qi Tongwei beckoned Cheng Du to take a picture.

Gao Yuliang shook his head, took off his glasses, and wiped them.

Sha Ruijin helped Chen Yanshi, Tian Guofu supported Wang Fuzhen, and Chen Hai and Zhou Zheng followed behind.

Chen Yanshi walked very slowly.

He saw the car, now a complete wreck, in the distance and paused.

Wang Fuzhen saw the corpse and screamed, "Chen Shan, my son!"

Tian Guofu quickly helped her up.

Even so, she almost fainted.

Fortunately, Chen Hai and Zhou Zheng arrived in time and caught Wang Fuzhen.

Chen Hai quickly pinched Wang Fuzhen's philtrum.

Otherwise, he might have died too.

Chen Yanshi didn't move; he just stood there.

He stood there for a long time.

half an hour.

He started walking, step by step, towards the destination.

He walked up to him and lowered his head.

Looking at that bloodied and mangled face.

Chen Yanshi's lips trembled, and the wrinkles on his face looked particularly deep in the morning light.

He opened his mouth and let out a hoarse sob.

"My son... Chen Shan, you've been so foolish..."

Wang Fuzhen rushed over, embraced the body, and burst into tears.

"My son, my son..."

Sha Ruijin stood to the side, his nose stinging with tears, and turned his head away.

Tian Guofu took off his glasses, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

Qi Tongwei stood on the outside, watching the family in silence.

The question in my mind grew deeper and deeper.

Was the deceased really Chen Shan?

If not, then where is Chen Shan now?

If so, how do you explain that overseas phone number, that truck, and all those coincidences?

Qi Tongwei looked up at the sky.

Its daybreak.

Cheng Du squatted down beside the pile of rocks, searching over and over again.

Suddenly, he stood up. "Qi Sheng, look."

Qi Tongwei walked over, and Cheng Du handed him the item, which was an ID card.

It was already cracked, the edges curled up, and stained with dark brown blood.

The person in the photo has clear features and is indeed Chen Shan's ID card.

"And this too." Cheng Du handed over a black leather wallet. He opened it and found a police officer's ID card inside. The cardholder's name was Chen Shan, and the serial number and seal were all there.

Qi Tongwei didn't take it, but stared at the two items for a moment.

"Gloves." Cheng Du took out a pair of white gloves and handed them over.

That's what professionalism is all about; you can't just leave your fingerprints anywhere.

Qi Tongwei put on white gloves and took the ID card and police officer's certificate.

The document is genuine; the wear and tear on the cover is consistent with the marks of daily use, and the oil stains left by fingerprints also appear to be from years of frequent touching.

The clothes are genuine.

Police uniform.

Police badge number: Han 00001

Qi Tongwei squatted down and looked at the bloodied and mangled face again.

Can't see clearly.

He was badly injured in the fall; half of his nose bridge collapsed and his cheekbone was shattered.

Even if it were a deity, let alone her own mother, no one would recognize her by her face alone.

Their builds are similar; their height, physique, and shoulder width all match Chen Shan's.

"How tall are you?" Qi Tongwei asked.

Cheng Du flipped through his notebook. "The preliminary forensic measurement is 1.78 meters. Chen Shan's height is listed as 1.78 meters in his file."

Qi Tongwei didn't say anything, but weighed the documents in his hand.

Chen Yanshi was crying so hard he couldn't stand up, while Wang Fuzhen was lying on the body, refusing to let go, crying out "Shanzi" every time.

Chen Hai and Zhou Zheng were supporting Wang Fuzhen's arms from the side.

Both of their eyes were red.

Sha Ruijin stood a few steps away, his back to us, so we couldn't see his expression.

Tian Guofu took off his glasses, wiped them with his sleeve, then took them off again and wiped them again.

At this time.

Li Dakang also arrived.

Zhao Donglai followed behind.

Li Dakang walked over with a sullen face, his feet covered in morning dew and mud.

He glanced around the scene, said nothing, walked up to Chen Yanshi, and stopped.

"Mr. Chen, please accept my condolences."

Chen Yanshi looked up at him, his eyes red-rimmed, his lips trembling for a long time, unable to utter a single word.

Li Dakang suddenly realized that what he was saying was not right.

So he didn't linger, turned around and walked over to Qi Tongwei and Gao Yuliang, giving them a simple nod as a greeting.

Then he asked in a low voice.

Gao Yuliang shook his head and said a few words in a low voice.

Li Dakang felt something was very wrong after hearing this, so he didn't ask any more questions.

Qi Tongwei handed his ID card and police ID to Zhang Qi. "What do you think?"

Zhang Qi took it, glanced at it, then turned it over to look at the back, and gently shook his head.

"The ID is real, the clothes are real, but..." Zhang Qi paused, lowering his voice, "I just feel like something's not right."

"What's wrong?" Qi Tongwei asked.

Zhang Qi didn't answer, he couldn't say anything, and shook his head.

"Then let's wait for the results." Qi Tongwei took off his white glove, held it between his fingertips, and shook it gently. "Come on, let's meet over there."

Some things should not be said to outsiders.

Gao Yuliang, Qi Tongwei, Li Dakang, Zhang Qi, Cheng Du, Zhao Donglai, along with Ma Wenbin, the director of the Bin County Public Security Bureau, and Liu Changhe, the secretary of the Bin County Political and Legal Committee, stood under a large tree.

Li Dakang was very agitated. "Everyone, we must first find out one thing: is the deceased Chen Shan?"

Qi Tongwei glanced at Zhang Qi, "Director Zhang, what's your analysis?"

Zhang Qi leaned against the tree. "He has an ID card, a police officer's ID, and his build and height match. But his face is badly bruised, so we can't identify him from his appearance."

The fingerprints have been collected, but the results won't be available until tomorrow morning at the earliest.

"What about DNA?" Li Dakang asked.

Zhao Donglai answered quickly, "This might take longer, the earliest it could be is tomorrow, or even the day after tomorrow."

Gao Yuliang asked, "What are Elder Chen and Elder Wang's opinions?"

Because the occasion was inappropriate, Gao Yuliang did not move closer to Chen Yanshi.

No amount of comforting was right, because Chen Shan had committed a crime and was a suspect.

Moreover, it is uncertain whether the deceased was Chen Shan.

Ma Wenbin sighed, "Old Chen said to cooperate, to cooperate with everything. Old Wang also said to handle it however it should be handled, with no objections."

It's actually a huge headache.

Bin County has gotten into such a big mess.

Cheng Du added, "Chen Hai also said he had no objections."

Qi Tongwei gave a soft "hmm".

Li Dakang glanced at Qi Tongwei. "Governor Qi, what are your thoughts?"

Qi Tongwei, unhurriedly, first posed a question: "What's next to this section of road?"

Liu Changhe, secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission of Bin County, quickly responded: "Governor Qi, it's called Broken Soul Cliff, a notoriously dangerous section of Bin County."

During the summer when the water level rises, car accidents often happen here.

However, it was a perfectly sunny day with good road conditions.

How could Chen Shan, a veteran driver with twenty years of experience, crash through the guardrail and fall down?

Cheng Du then added, "Chen Shan's phone has been found. The screen is broken, but there is no SIM card inside."

My watch, ring, and other personal belongings were all there, but my SIM card was missing.

Qi Tongwei nodded. "Perhaps this person isn't Chen Shan, but a scapegoat. Chen Shan's SIM card must hold many secrets, so he wouldn't dare leave it behind."
