I really can't figure out why the younger generations are not allowed to understand the secrets of the secret arts, but I don't dare to ask grandma, but I think grandma must know something about grandpa back then.

But I have an advantage, that is, if I can’t figure it out, I will definitely try my best to study it and understand it. Since my grandma doesn’t allow me to study, I have to try. If I can’t be a direct disciple, I will become a monk halfway.

It's okay to be a monk.

With the idea of ​​taking a risk to find out, I was about to go back to the living room to take another look at the portfolio my father left on the square table. Unexpectedly, my father was already back.

"Xiao Huan, what are you looking for? Is it that portfolio?" My dad was obviously also here for this portfolio.

"Yeah, I'm quite curious. I want to see what's in the portfolio?" In fact, my dad's attitude is the same as my grandma's about my wanting to learn secret arts. I firmly disagree, but there is no way.

I was caught peeking, so I had to say that I was curious.

When my dad heard this, he glanced at grandma's door and dragged me into his bedroom.

"Tell me, I know you've seen it, what are your thoughts and feelings?" After saying that, my dad quietly closed the door.

"Dad, can you trust me?"

"You tell me first."

"Okay, let me tell you." At this moment, I have no choice. Anyway, I have been caught. Instead of refusing to pay, it is better to speak up.

"From the photos, the age of the deceased seems to be around 6-7 years old. The cause of death is drowning. Judging from the injuries on the body, it seems that he was entangled in aquatic plants in the water. The child may not know how to swim, so

It resulted in drowning, but according to my analysis, the child was probably killed." After saying that, I glanced at my dad.

My dad was very simple and told me to continue.

"In places like the pond in the village, the adults in the family will definitely give instructions not to let the children play. Children aged 6-7 have already developed their minds. It is okay to let them play by the water, but it is far-fetched to go swimming directly.

Yes, and there is some doubt about it."

"Dad, look, this body is so lifelike. This means that the person who found it and called the police probably witnessed the tragedy. Since there was someone nearby, the child definitely did not accidentally fall into the pond by himself."

"Yes, the analysis makes some sense. Take a look at this again."

"Dad, what is this?"

"record."

I took another file bag from my dad's hand, and when I opened it, I found that it was an interrogation record.

"Did you catch the suspect? In other words, it was confirmed that he was killed?"

I quickly opened the interrogation record and directly found the last page, which was about the conclusion of this case.

"What? His father killed the child, why is that?"

"We are also investigating. I happened to forget those photos at home. Seeing that you are interested again, I asked you if you have any other ideas?"

My dad looked at me with interest, as if he already knew everything I would do.

"Look at what his father said in the transcript."

I found the transcript and quickly opened it.

"The child's father said that the child was the second oldest child in their family and was not his biological child, so he wanted to take advantage of the heavy rain in the village during the summer, causing the pond to rise and become deep, so that the child accidentally entered the pond to play and kill him."

As I was reading the written confession of the deceased's father, I unconsciously remembered a sentence recorded in the second volume of "The Secret Art of Chasing the Shadows" left by my grandfather, "When mortals are relatives, it is difficult to say goodbye, so they hide their appearance and express their love for each other."

Protect others'.

Comparing this case, that is to say, the deceased's father most likely wanted to collect all the evidence to cover up the truth, but what exactly is it that requires the deceased's father to take the blame?

Since it is an important person, it must be an important person around me. Thinking of this, I seem to understand something.

"Dad, does the deceased's father have a child?"

"Yes, I also have an eldest son who is in elementary school. He went to his aunt's house during the summer break and did not come back when the crime occurred."

Seeing that I looked confident, my dad simply went out without any hurry. He took off his police uniform jacket and sat down to drink tea.

I saw my dad looking carefree, obviously he was testing me.

"I didn't go early, I didn't go late, but I'm going now. So what's going on with the deceased's mother? Is she really having an affair?"

I thought about it, since it was the father of the deceased who wanted to cover up something, then at the time of the crime, the only closest relative was his own wife, that is, it was really possible that he was helping his wife to take the blame.

"It's not clear yet. Your Uncle Peng has already sent the deceased's DNA to see if it can be matched with the deceased's father. But according to their neighbors, this child's mother is usually a very honest person. Unlike

It looks like he's having an affair, but his mother is in the police, and the child is not his husband's. Let's wait until the results come out, and everything will be settled."

My dad drank a few sips of tea and started getting ready to get dressed and go out.

"Don't wait for me to go home for dinner tonight. I'll stay on duty at the unit."

"Wait a minute, Dad, do you think it was the deceased's brother, the eldest son, who killed him?"

"What did you say? A 9-year-old child killed a 7-year-old child. It's a fantasy."

My dad obviously scoffed at my doubts and didn't agree with me at all.

"It's not that I'm overthinking it. Dad, the mother of the deceased has never said who the real father of the deceased is in your bureau. Also, the real father has not shown up for a long time. Could it be that he doesn't exist at all? I remember that grandpa left

It is recorded in the secret techniques that have been handed down that when a disciple becomes a relative, it is difficult to say goodbye, so he hides his appearance to protect those around him."

I paused and continued: "The most important people around the father of the deceased are his wife and his two sons. Assuming that his wife cheated on him, he has no reason to cover up for his wife, so there is only one option left.

There is only his eldest son and no one else."

"Is this the record in the "Secret Technique of Chasing the Shadow" left behind by your grandfather?"

Obviously, my father dares to doubt me, but he definitely does not doubt grandpa.

"right."

"Don't say it, your kid's idea makes sense. I've written it down. I'll go back and discuss it with your Uncle Peng. If it's really right, I'll buy you the latest Iphone this year."

As soon as I heard that there was a reward for the latest mobile phone, I was immediately happy. After all, my dad usually likes to give me material rewards.

"Okay, Dad, believe me, it's absolutely right."

"I don't know if I'm wrong, but what you said is a bit unconventional and deserves further study. Okay, I'm leaving. Tell your mother, don't stay home tonight. I'll go to work at work."

After saying that, my dad went out.

But soon, I realized something was wrong. I seemed to have been deceived by my father. He had never supported me in this industry. How could he be so patient and listen to my analysis of the case and praise me.
