Chapter 229 Vampire Parents
Provincial Department, Interrogation Room.
Bai Jie's father, Bai Sangui, was the sole ruler in the family. He had one daughter and seven sons. His wife was a quiet and reserved woman, and everything was decided by her husband.
Bai Sangui had a pointed face and was not tall, but he was very clever and had a strong preference for sons over daughters. He often said that daughters were a waste of money, and he would have no worries even if he had ten sons.
Qi Tongwei walked into the interrogation room and saw the appearance of Bai Jie's parents. His daughter was the result of a genetic mutation. If Bai Jie's mother hadn't been honest, Bai Sangui would have suspected that his wife was having an affair.
When news of Bai Jie working as a prostitute reached his family, Bai Sangui not only didn't feel ashamed, but was actually very proud. He thought his daughter was so beautiful that she should go out and earn more money; otherwise, how could he enjoy his life?
"Officer, my daughter died so young, you must do justice for her!"
Qi Tongwei sat down with a serious expression; this was probably just crocodile tears.
"Bai Sangui, your daughter's case is still under investigation. The police will naturally give your daughter justice, so don't worry."
"Officer, my daughter is very filial. My wife and I are both in poor health, and we have seven younger brothers who all depend on her for support. What should we do?"
Bai Sangui spoke with such sincerity that anyone who didn't know better would think his daughter was his most precious treasure.
Qi Tongwei despised these kinds of parents, who treated their sons like treasures while their daughters were worthless.
"Bai Sangui, I'm quite curious. Family planning is a national policy, so why doesn't it work in your family? I can understand if you wanted one or two sons, but you have seven. Have you been watching too much of the Yang Family Generals?"
Bai Sangui never expected that Qi Tongwei would bring up his son. When the family planning office came to his house to ask his wife to have an abortion, he went crazy and acted like a rogue, which resulted in him having seven sons. He was famous in the surrounding area.
"Officer, my family is poor. We need to have more boys so we have enough able-bodied men."
Qi Tongwei couldn't help but laugh. "Bai Sangui, don't try to fool the police with this kind of nonsense. Don't worry, I'm not from the family planning office. I don't care how many children you have. Your whole family has been sucking your daughter's blood. Now that Bai Jie is dead, do you want to apply for government assistance?"
Bai Sangui could tell that Qi Tongwei was deliberately mocking him, but he was shameless. He wasn't afraid of selling his daughter, so what was sucking her blood? Now that his daughter was dead, he had to extort a large sum of money for her death.
"Officer, you can't talk nonsense! My daughter was very filial, and our whole family treated her very well. Now that she's died under mysterious circumstances, the whole family is heartbroken. I just want to get my daughter's things back and take her home for a proper burial."
Having such parents in this life, Bai Jie can only blame her bad luck; perhaps she's here to repay a debt of gratitude.
Qi Tongwei was very angry, but there was no need to make things too difficult for the parents, after all, the deceased should be respected.
"All of your daughter's belongings will be given to her family. As for death compensation, it's probably not much since murder is punishable by death. Of course, you can go to Bai Jie's workplace and ask her boss for some compensation."
"Officer, my daughter works in a nightclub, and I'm just a country bumpkin who doesn't know anything about it. You have to help me!"
Bai Sangui's plan was quite shrewd. Knowing he couldn't afford to offend the nightclub, he wanted the police to help him claim death compensation.
"Bai Sangui, I'm a policeman, not someone who collects debts for others."
Qi Tongwei really wanted to give this old scoundrel a good thrashing. "According to our investigation, the house at the crime scene was bought outright by Bai Jie, and there's over 900,000 yuan in her savings account. That's more than enough to raise your seven sons."
Bai Sangui's eyes lit up when he heard about so much money. He had been asking about it at the criminal police team. Chen Zhihu had designs on the money in the savings account but refused to tell Bai Sangui. Bai Jie probably wanted to keep the money for her family. Qi Tongwei, of course, didn't want the money that Bai Jie had worked so hard to earn with the man to go to someone like Chen Zhihu.
"Officer, when can I get my daughter's bankbook?"
Bai Sangui was anxious and couldn't wait to get his daughter's money. Such a large sum of money was indeed enough for him to live a worry-free life.
This was reality, and Qi Tongwei felt a pang of sadness. "Some of your daughter's important belongings are at the criminal investigation team; go and get them in a bit."
"Thank you, officer. Thank you, officer."
Bai Sangui was so moved and grateful that he cried, "Officer, there's no need to investigate anymore. My daughter must have been killed by that bastard Wu Yong. You should execute him immediately!"
"My daughter is so stupid. That bastard Wu Yong's college tuition was all paid by my daughter. Now that he's successful, he repays kindness with enmity. He's a real scoundrel."
Qi Tongwei had a sudden inspiration. "Bai Sangui, Wu Yong is only a suspect now. I'm warning you, you can't do anything reckless, and you absolutely can't go to someone else's school and cause trouble. That's illegal, you understand?"
With this reminder, Bai Sangui immediately found a place to extort money. He dared not go to nightclubs, but he dared to go to schools.
"Officer, I know the law, I know the law."
Qi Tongwei was speechless. If you fucking knew the law, you'd be dirt poor and still have seven sons.
Lan Ying glanced at Qi Tongwei. This was clearly a malicious reminder. If they made a scene, the school would lose face, and they might actually be able to get some compensation. Of course, the most important thing was that if they made such a scene, Wu Yong would be completely unable to stay at the school, and the professor's daughter would probably have to run away in advance.
Bai Sangui and his wife left the provincial government office and immediately took a taxi to the criminal investigation team, eager to get the money left by their daughter.
To see things through, Qi Tongwei called Director Dai of the Municipal Public Security Bureau and asked the criminal investigation team to deliver Bai Jie's belongings to her parents, most importantly her bankbook and property certificate.
Bai Sangui rushed to the criminal police team, thinking he could get his daughter's bankbook, but Chen Zhihu deliberately avoided him, saying that the belongings were evidence and that he should come back in a few days to collect them.
"Jie'er, you died such a tragic death! The police withheld your million-yuan hard-earned money and won't give it to me. Your seven younger brothers are so young, how are your mother and I supposed to survive?"
In his eagerness to get the money, Bai Sangui had no sense of shame and lay in the police station lobby, throwing a tantrum like a shrew.
"Jie'er, my Jie'er, Daddy can't live without you. Please open your eyes in heaven and look at us."
Soon a crowd of onlookers gathered, seeing a grown man throwing a tantrum at a police station for the first time. Bai Sangui's wife sat on the ground, crying incessantly.
"These are the parents of the nightclub hostess who was raped and murdered. I heard they had a million in their savings account."
"One million! I couldn't earn that much in my entire career as a policeman."
"It seems like the provincial department specifically investigated this; they probably don't trust the criminal investigation team."
"I think that kid from the provincial department doesn't trust Captain Chen."
“I’m worried about having so much money. Even though it’s not clean money, I can only leave every penny to the victim’s parents.”
Upon hearing the report, Chen Zhihu flew into a rage, yelling, "You scoundrels, arrest them!"
"Qi Tongwei, I'll fuck your mother!"
