Chapter 181: Chapter 181A Domestic Violence Case Turned Murder Case

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The house had a common layout of two bedrooms and one living room.

The living room looked clean and simple.

“Dr. Chen, can you reveal the mystery now?”

Li Changjun smiled bitterly. “We’ve already eaten, and 1 brought you here to look at the house too. Can you not keep us in suspense?”

“1 have a meeting later. I’m afraid 1 don’t have that much time to accompany you.”

Looking up at the ceiling, Chen Yu replied, “Let’s start with the first problem.”

“When we were in my shop, 1 told you that there was a problem with the magnetic field of this house.”

“In short, someone died here.”

“This caused the magnetic field here to become chaotic.”

“A haunted house!”

Zhou Kexin shouted in shock.

“Captain Li, why didn’t you tell us before that someone died here?”

Zhou Kexin retorted to Li Changjun.

She would never have come if she had known this was a haunted house.

Curiosity killed the cat. This saying was always true.

“That’s impossible…”

“1 haven’t heard anyone report that someone died here.”

Li Changjun frowned with his mind in a mess.

In order to investigate the truth of this domestic violence case, he had been in and out of this house at least three or four times.

He had never heard of anyone dying here.

When he visited the neighbors, no one mentioned that there was a problem with the house too.

Why would Chen Yu suddenly say that someone died here?

Chen Yu then asked Li Changjun if Zhao Guohan and his wife had bought this house at a price lower than the market price.

“That’s right.”

Li Changjun answered without hesitation.

In order to find out the truth, Li Changjun went to the hospital to talk to Zhao Guohan about Chen Wei.

“Zhao Guohan told me about this house during our chat.”

“The owner said that he needed money urgently to do business in another city, so he sold this house to them at a price lower than 300,000 yuan the market price.”

“If the husband and wife can give him the money within a week, he can give them another 30,000 yuan discount.”

After explaining that, Li Changjun hurriedly asked, “Dr. Chen, if someone really died here, did the deceased die of natural causes or was murdered?”

It would be fine if the person died of natural causes.

After all, it was common for people to feel fear and disgust toward houses where people had died.

In order to successfully sell the house, the owner would definitely try his best to hide this matter.

If it were a homicide, the situation would be troublesome.

“Murdered,” replied Chen Yu.

Li Changjun rubbed his face with a complicated expression as what he feared had come true.

A domestic violence case turned into a murder case.

With even the neighbors having no idea, it would be challenging to solve this case.

Zhou Kexin’s expression changed, and she asked nervously, “In this house, is… is there that thing here?”

Zhou Kexin’s teeth chattered.

She was afraid that Chen Yu would confirm her fears.

“It’s not like you’ve done anything wrong,” Chen Yu said with a faint smile. “Even if there really is a special energy body in the house, you don’t have to worry.”

Immediately, Chen Yu gestured for Li Changjun to contact Zhao Guohan, who was recuperating in the hospital, via video call.

He had a few questions to ask Zhao Guohan.

“I’ll contact him now.”

Li Changjun took out his phone and called Zhao Guohan through WeChat.

After a short wait, the video call connected.

Zhao Guohan’s injuries had significantly improved after some rest, and he looked normal.

“Mr. Zhao, this is Dr. Chen Yu, our special consultant.”

“He has a few questions for you. Please answer them truthfully.”

Zhao Guohan said, “Hello, Dr. Chen. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

As long as I know, 1 will definitely answer them.”

“Have you two never thought of renovating your house?” Chen Yu asked with a smile.

Zhao Guohan sighed and said, “My wife and 1 discussed this before buying the house and decided that this house is temporary.”

“When I earn more money in the future, I’ll buy a big house.”

“Therefore, neither of us has any plans to renovate.”

After obtaining his desired answer, Chen Yu asked, “The original owner knows that you don’t plan to renovate, right?”

Zhao Guohan thought about it and replied with uncertainty, “The first time 1 looked at the house, 1 did talk to my wife about the renovation with the owner also there.”

“As for whether he heard it or not, I’m not sure.”

“A few days after you bought the house, your wife started to abuse you, right?”

“That’s right.”

When Chen Yu mentioned his wife, Zhao Guohan’s expression suddenly darkened.

“Dr. Chen, Captain Li, my wife wasn’t like this before. She must have a mental illness; that’s must be why she hit me.”

“I won’t pursue this and am willing to issue a letter of understanding. Can you let her go?”

Just as Li Changjun was about to speak, Chen Yu took the lead. “The truth about your wife will be revealed soon.”

“You can rest in the hospital now.”

“I guarantee that there will be a satisfactory outcome.”

“Really?”

Zhao Guohan asked expectantly.

“Yes,” Chen Yu nodded and continued, “Captain Li, you can end the video call now.”

“Dr. Chen, who was the person who died in the house?” Zhou Kexin was puzzled.

“Why did the murderer kill the person?”

“Also, why are you asking about this house’s renovation?”

“Don’t rush. Let’s answer that one by one.”

Walking to the sofa and sitting down, Chen Yu crossed his legs and started his explanation. “The reason why Chen Wei’s temperament changed so much and she abused her husband is because of the magnetic field here.”

“The victim who died here turned into a special body of energy after death, which interfered with the magnetic field here.”

“Could it be a ghost?!”

Zhou Kexin asked frightenedly.

“There are no ghosts in this world,” Chen Yu replied playfully. “All strange things have scientific explanations.”

Zhou Kexin rolled her eyes.

How could Chen Yu still insist that there was no ghost when things were already obvious at this point?

There had been a murder in this house.

The ghost of the deceased should still be here.

Chen Wei was possessed by a ghost, which was why she became fierce and brutal.

There was more to this, too.

Li Changjun had mentioned before that the neighbors would always hear crying from this house in the middle of the night.

There was a high chance that the crying was from a ghost.

Thinking the ghost might be nearby, Zhou Kexin’s gossipy fire disappeared without a trace.

Her face instantly turned pale.

“Miss Zhou, don’t interrupt and let Dr. Chen finish his sentence.” Li Changjun said seriously.

“Dr. Chen, please continue.”

“Who is the victim?”

“The victim is the previous owner’s wife,” Chen Yu replied.

“The previous owner had a bad habit of gambling. His wife tried to persuade him to quit, but to no avail, so she could only let him be.”

“As the saying goes, nine out of ten gamblers lose. After gambling for many years, the previous owner lost everything he had, leaving only this house.”

“I don’t have to say much about the gambler’s thoughts, but you should know them too well, Captain Lee.”

“The more they lose, the more they want to gamble. They always have a dream of turning the tables and winning back everything.”

Li Changxin nodded emotionally.

Suddenly, he thought of a problem.

Where did the corpse go?
