Chapter 339 - An Ungrateful Son Who Killed His Father (1/2)
Chapter 339 An Ungrateful Son Who Killed His FatherUpon seeing that the situation was under control, Qin Haodong stepped towards the crystal coffin.
“What are you going to do?”
Yang Baozhong opened his arms and blocked Qin Haodong.
“I want to see the dead man and determine how he died. If it’s really because he took the Blood Revival Elixir, I will pay for his life with my life.”
Yang Baozhong called out, “Is that necessary? My father just bought the Blood Revival Elixir from you this morning and he died after consuming it. It must be your fault.”
Qin Haodong said in a cold voice, “Since you are so sure, why can’t you let me see?”
“He has been laid to rest. You can’t see.”
“Do you really want him to be laid to rest? If so, why don’t you bring the body here?” Qin Haodong said, “Since you are so sure that my Blood Revival Elixir killed your father, why can’t you let me see his body? Is there any shady business going on?”
“Yes, is there any shady business…”
“He dares not even let Doctor Qin see the body. It’s another blackmailer…”
“He has a guilty conscience, just like a thief. I think this guy is afraid to show the body to Doctor Qin…”
Upon hearing this, Ma Sanbao and the others shouted as well.
Suddenly, Yang Baolian, who had never spoken, said, “Brother, let him have a look so that they won’t deny this…”
“I…” Realizing that there was no way to stop it, Yang Baozhong said helplessly, “Well, you can take a look quickly.”
Qin Haodong came to the crystal coffin, raised his hand and clapped it gently, opening the lid and exposing Yang Sanqiang’s body to the air.
He first put his hand on Yang Sanqiang’s wrist. Then, Yang Baozhong said, “Don’t be deliberately mystifying. He is dead! What are you doing?”
Qin Haodong ignored him, opened Yang Sanqiang’s eyelids again, and looked at him. He reached out and pressed Yang Sanqiang’s neck and heart. Then, he frowned. Suddenly, he reached out and took off Yang Sanqiang’s coat.
Yang Baozhong, who seemed to be startled by his action, cried out, “What are you doing? My father is dead. Why are you taking off his clothes?”
Qin Haodong threw the torn clothes aside, pointed to Yang Sanqiang, and asked, “What’s up with the scars on the corpse?”
As he said this, everyone saw several scratches on Yang Sanqiang’s chest and some bruises on his arms.
Yang Baozhong licked his lips and said nervously, “How would I know? My father may have fallen down. He became very weak after getting ill. It was normal for him to fall down…”
Qin Haodong looked at him coldly and said, “Didn’t you say that you don’t know? How can you say that your father fell down? Do you know or not?”
Yang Baozhong hesitated and said, “I… I guess that he has fallen down…”
Qin Haodong asked Yang Baolian, “Do you know what happened?”
Yang Baolian said in surprise, “I don’t know. It’s hot these days. My father was often naked, but I didn’t see any scars!”
Qin Haodong’s eyes turned back to Yang Baozhong. He pointed to Yang Sanqiang and said, “You said the dead man had once fallen down, but this was not a fall at all.
If a person falls down normally, the first injuries should be on their forehead, elbow, and jaw. However, these parts of his body are all intact. The injured parts are his chest and arm, which obviously get injured when one is fighting with others.”
Yang Baozhong said, “What… What are you talking about? How could my father have fought with someone?”
Yang Baolian also said, “Yes, that’s impossible. My father had a good temper, so he never fought with others. Besides, he was a patient. How could he have fought with someone?”
“The fact that he had a good temper doesn’t mean he wouldn’t resist if other people poisoned him.” Qin Haodong turned to look at Yang Baozhong and said angrily, “Your father didn’t die by taking the Blood Revival Elixir. He was poisoned by you, his ungrateful son.”
As soon as he said this, there was an uproar.
“Can that be? This man is the natural son of the deceased. Would he really poison his father?”
“The Blood Revival Elixir has cured so many of us, and nobody has experienced a problem. How could he die after taking it? He was poisoned by his own son!”
“This man is worse than an animal. He poisoned his father!”
Yang Baozhong’s face was full of consternation as he shouted, “Nonsense, you quack doctor! In order to shirk responsibility, you are slandering me. How could I poison my father…?”
Yang Baolian also said, “Doctor Qin, I’ve heard of your name. I used to admire you very much, but you can’t say that my brother killed my father in order to shirk responsibility.”
Qin Haodong took a look at her and said, “If my guess is right, you were not around when your father died.”
Yang Baolian, who was slightly shocked, said, “Well, my father checked that everything was normal after taking the Blood Revival Elixir. When he came home, he wanted to eat deep-fried dough sticks and drink soya-bean milk. I went out to buy them for him, but when I came home, I found him dead.”
Qin Haodong said, “That’s right. Your brother poisoned your father as soon as you left. Originally, your brother had put the poison in the water and tried to trick your father into drinking it. However, your father wanted to drink soya-bean milk instead of water.
Your brother was afraid that his plan would be exposed when you came back, so he had to force your father to drink. That’s how he left these fighting scars.”
“You… You…” Yang Baozhong looked at Qin Haodong in horror. He couldn’t believe that Qin Haodong’s theory was completely right.
