Macbeth (15)
"My mother married Zhou Junmao when she was pregnant with me. I was the son of her and her ex-husband. Of course, they only said that they were 'premature'," Zhou Huaijin smiled bitterly. "Outsiders think that Zhou Junmao is capable, perseverance, enthusiastic about public welfare, and patriotism - it's simply a respected standard template. Mr. Fei, don't you think so too?"
Fei Du raised his eyes a little surprised.
"Oh, I heard that Mr. Fei has been alone since he was widowed," Zhou Huaijin obviously misunderstood the reason for his surprise and spread his hands slightly self-deprecatingly, "What, is this kind of thing difficult for you to understand?"
Fei Du asked softly: "So you have done a paternity test?"
Zhou Huaijin shrugged: "What's the point of doing? I've known since I was a child that I was not my biological child. Zhou Junmao would never make mistakes. If he was not sure, he should have done it. I have no fantasies about him. Huaixin is his serious only son, and he has been indifferent for so many years, let alone me - I'm not afraid of you to make fun of me. He didn't poison me to death, it was the result of a multi-party game."
Fei Du's hand was still trembling uncontrollably, so he had to use a little force to pinch the cold mineral water bottle, and at the same time glanced at Zhou Huaijin thoughtfully - although Zhou Huaijin looked very young, he was already thirty-eight years old when he was registered according to his registered ID.
Zhou Huaijin probably didn't know very well. Thirty-seven or eight years ago, the technology of paternity testing was not yet implemented.
"You are hinting at Zhou Junmao," Fei Du thought about the wording, "Will you use some inappropriate means?"
"Or what do you think my biological father died? Did he really die of a heart attack?" Zhou Huaijin said coldly, "His right-hand man Zheng Kaifeng is a gangster. Birds of a feather flock together, and there is nothing they can't do."
"How did you know?"
"My mother told me when she was dying that when she was young, she was dissatisfied with my biological father's desire to control and some...unacceptable hobbies, and she was reluctant to divorce. She cheated on Zhou Junmao under all kinds of temptations. Under the instigation of the two scumbags Zhou and Zheng, she conspired with them to do that. But does the traitor/husband/delusion/woman want to last forever?" Zhou Huaijin, who was as gentle as jade, showed his sharpness under his skin for decades, "That's too funny. Not long after, she discovered that this man was even better than the scumbags before, and unfortunately she had me. Zhou Junmao always thought that she had evidence of their conspiracy to kill Zhou Yahou that year, because of this - and the group equity in her hand, he kept pinching his nose and pretending that I didn't exist."
Fei Du's doubts became increasingly intense: "I think?"
"My mother has a secret safe in a private bank. No one can open it except her and her designated heirs. The key is what she used to restrain Zhou Junmao. Later it came to my hands," Zhou Huaijin sighed, "Now that Zhou Junmao is dead, I can tell the truth--there is actually only a box of expired heart first aid medicine in the safe. Otherwise, I would have ruined him long ago, and I would have to be as wronged as I am now?"
"You said you are Zhou Yahou's son," Fei Du asked slowly, "Who knows about this?"
"Zhou Dalong appears to be kind and moral, but he has always regarded himself as an eagle wolf. How could he let others know the color of his head? Except for Zheng Kaifeng, everyone else should be kept in the dark. But Huaixin..." Zhou Huaixin said this and looked up at the operating room lamp again. He paused and said with difficulty, "Huixin has been more sensitive than other children since he was a child. I think he should have guessed it, but he didn't say it. This child... This child was grown up when I watched Huaixin. My mother was tortured by the murder case that year. When she was born, she was old and her postpartum depression aggravated her mental problems and had no time to take care of him. In the Zhou family, apart from the stupid murderer of my mother, he was the only person who had a blood relationship with me. He was so young and so innocent. Although the blood of that person was flowing in his body... but he only me, and I only him."
This is a pair of brothers who grew up in a twisted family. They naturally have reasons for hating each other and are forced to depend on each other for a long time.
Zhou Huaixin folded his hands together and pressed them on his forehead: "If there is retribution, why will it fall on him?"
Fei Du knew that at this time, according to social etiquette, he should reach out to pat Zhou Huaijin on the reddish shoulder twice to express comfort. However, his heart was filled with cold-bloodedness. He was like a cold-blooded animal with slow metabolism, too lazy to stretch out this hand.
He tilted his head and looked at Zhou Huaijin, then asked in a plain tone: "You just said that Huaixin was the old man's 'only son' - so, do you already know that Yang Bo and Zhou Junmao are not related by blood?"
"Have you checked the parent-child relationship between Yang Bo and Zhou Junmao? The domestic police are moving very quickly." Zhou Huaijin blinked hard a few times, trying to calm down his emotions, and said hoarsely, "Yang Bo is... very shallow, with great ambition and talent. He follows Zheng Kaifeng's butt every day. He claims to be Zheng Kaifeng's student, but in fact he only learned superficial skills. Such a person has neither qualifications nor ability, and has no background and education. Why was he promoted to that position at a young age? Naturally, some people guessed, so the rumor of "illegitimate child" leaked at that time."
"This rumor was once circulating, but neither Zhou Junmao himself nor Yang Bo's backer Zheng Kaifeng had come forward to clarify. Over time, the boy might have really thought he was the 'Crown Prince'." Zhou Huaijin pinched the mineral water bottle and shook his head, "He secretly collected Zhou Junmao and his DNA, and privately found an inconsistent paternity test institution... Even this was sneaky, and some people really couldn't get on the surface from the bottom of their hearts."
Fei Du asked in his voice: "You discovered that he was looking for someone to do an appraisal in private."
"I know the person in charge of that black workshop. I am a basketball friend," said Zhou Huaijin. "A typical 'white garbage', a liar, he knows the secrets of many people. He looks like a saw-mouth gourd, and can be conservative. In fact, there are so many private transactions, it depends on whether you can pay his price."
"He told you about this-"
"It should be said that he gave me this for free," said Zhou Huaijin. "I paid for another service, and I asked him to change the sample of Huaixin in."
Yang Bo, a poor boy with nothing, was inexplicably appreciated by the big boss. He was probably both proud and grateful, and might even be a little nervous. He must have been following the man with the kindness of knowing his grace, and he was trying his best to make himself look less mediocre every day. Maybe he would even regard the old man who had a legendary life as his idol of struggle.
But what if one day he finds that all this he has obtained may be just because he is the legal heir to the "idol"?
At first, he must have been shocked and accompanied by hatred, because it means that his mother betrayed his father and family, and his idol of life betrayed his trust.
But this person may have cowardice and despicable nature. This unstable hatred will not last long. He will soon have some strange thoughts. It turns out that he should have been born with a golden spoon in his mouth, and he can be on par with those "young talents" who rely on his father.
Zhou Huaijin, Zhou Huaixin, and their arrogant friends, what qualifications do you have to look down on him?
Why is Zhou Junmao unwilling to recognize him?
He is Zhou Junmao's son and Mr. Zheng's direct relationship. Everyone knows that Mr. Zheng and the eldest son of Zhou are tense. He is also the son of a father, so why can he only work with a salary and not get a share of the huge family business?
Or - can't Zhou be his?
"It's you," Fei Du whispered, "'He will despise fate, despise life and death, transcend all cleaning, eliminate all doubts, and stick to his impossible hopes."
Zhou Huaijin closed his eyes, squirmed with his lips, and almost heard the next sentence: "'You all know that confidence is the greatest enemy of mankind.'" (Note)
"Goddess Hecate," Fei Du looked at him with a little sarcasm, "You spent a lot of magical powers to make Yang Bo think that he was Zhou's illegitimate son, giving him infinite hope. What is the purpose?"
"Yang Bo is Zheng Kaifeng's person," said Zhou Huaijin. "I don't know why Zheng Kaifeng valued him, but that old guy really regarded this kid as a confidant. Zheng Li was also trying to promote Yang Bo back then. Even Zhou Dalong once had a little complaint - although he accepted it later. This is a game. I am weak and can only try my best to break up the alliance between the opponents. I need to provoke Yang Bo's ambitions and use him to insert a thorn between Zhou Junmao and Zheng Kaifeng. I want to make all of them pay the price."
Fei Du looked at him lightly.
"It's true. At this point, I really don't need to lie to you," Zhou Huaijin pinched his nose hard. "Mr. Fei, even if my methods are not bright, I have not used the criminal means of murder and arson to avenge. You can condemn me morally, but you have to admit that I'm wrong to do this."
"Mr. Zhou," Fei Du said slowly, "Whether you are condemned or pay the price, I don't count. First, it depends on you wasting police force and creating such a big farce. How to define this nature, and secondly, it depends on the investigation results of the Zhou Junmao's car accident."
"I didn't expect Zhou Junmao to die in an unexpected car accident. In the script I arranged, the person in charge of the paternity test agency told Yang Bo the result. I got this thing by chance and ran to Yang Bo to ask for a crime. I would first anger him, and then assert to him in anger, 'Dad won't recognize you'. I understand Yang Bo, very shallowly. Under this impact, he can easily speak nonsense. If I have good luck, I can get some recordings that I can use in the future. At the same time, Yang Bo was stimulated and might be full of energy and wanted to slap me in the face with the fact that "recognizes the ancestors and returns to the ancestors". I have subsequent arrangements for this - but now you see that Zhou Junmao died too badly, and my plan died just now."
"After you heard about Zhou Junmao's death, you realized that although your plan was disrupted, it was also an opportunity. So you hinted that Zhou Huaixin called the police, sucked the attention of the police and the public, and introduced Yang Bo as a shield. Then, taking advantage of the aftermath of the car accident, he directed and acted a good show, which made Zhou Junmao's death even more confusing. He first blamed Yang Bo, and then used the public welfare fund to guide the police to investigate Zheng Kaifeng, and took advantage of the turmoil of Zhou's family to eliminate two enemies in one fell swoop, and at the same time, he used public opinion to fan the flames, which completely ruined Zhou Junmao's reputation-"
Zhou Huaijin's throat moved, without explanation, and it was a default.
Fei Du: "Aren't you afraid that Zhou will never recover from now on. Is it a mess in your hands?"
"The Zhou family is Zhou Junmao's 'Zhou'," Zhou Huaijin whispered, "It is connected with his reputation and bloodline during his lifetime and after his life. I want to break his golden body sculpture. As for the others... aren't they all outside the body? Mr. Fei, if you have a thorn in your heart that has grown in your heart since childhood, will you not dare to pull it out because you are afraid of losing everything? Money, material... Sometimes it is really not that attractive to people like us."
When Fei Du heard the sentence "The thorn in his heart", his fingers subconsciously tightened a little bit again, almost pinching the bottle of mineral water. At this time, several medical staff ran through them with the call plasma and rushed to the operating room, with the sound of footsteps as if there was an ominous rhythm.
Zhou Huaijin suddenly stood up: "Doctor, my brother..."
The Zhou family is the big funder of Hengai Hospital. A staff member who looks like a nurse said tactfully: "Don't worry, we will do our best to rescue him."
Zhou Huaijin heard the other party’s implication and staggered for a moment.
Fei Du supported his elbow: "Mr. Zhou, is Huaixin an outsider to you?"
Zhou Huaijin seemed to have been stepped on his tail, and his face suddenly changed. Fei Du refused to let him go: "When you and your dog-legged Hu Zhenyu sang together, he had already discovered something, but he didn't say anything, and he cooperated with you to continue the show. Do you know what he said to Hu Zhenyu?"
"I don't……"
"He said he didn't understand your affairs, he just wanted to be safe," Fei Du pressed his voice quickly and hard, like a short and sharp dagger, poking it into Zhou Huaijin's ear. "When I cheated him afterwards, he even wanted to accept the 'kidnapping' for you. Mr. Zhou, I have a question to ask you. From just now, you told me about the revenge of the prince with a cause and effect. Why didn't you mention the woman who used a knife to commit crimes, just like you know why she was so crazy. Can you tell me-"
The door of the operating room opened from inside, suddenly interrupting Fei Du's voice.
The wall clock that was constantly moving forward on the hospital wall seemed to pause. Zhou Huaijin looked at the doctor who was walking out in panic. At the same time, Fei Dudo's cell phone shook, he took it out and took a look. Luo Wenzhou sent him a message in concisely - "Dong Xiaoqing is dead."
Fei Du was stunned and immediately let go of Zhou Huaijin. His first reaction was to dial the phone back: "How are you?"
