Chapter 159: Chapter 159 Subhuman Thing_1

The five-star sedan slowed as it passed the village store, and Shen Tianxing spoke to Ya Wenzhen with a grave voice, "Wenzhen, go down and ask, someone in this village has died?"

"Yes!" Ya Wenzhen immediately stopped the car by the roadside.

As the five-star sedan just passed by, the four or five loafers sitting in the village store chatting busily began to discuss amongst themselves.

"What do you guys think, is this fancy-looking car a relative or a friend of someone from the village?"

"Could it be they’re attending the funeral at Old Lady Zhang’s place?"

"Cut it out, how could that be possible? If Old Lady Zhang really had such wealthy relatives, she wouldn’t have ended up in such a tragic state today."

"Shh, don’t talk anymore, the car has stopped."

Just as they were enjoying their guesswork, they saw the car indeed come to a halt and noticed the tall, stern-faced Ya Wenzhen stepping out and heading towards the store, they realized that this cold woman was definitely not to be trifled with so they immediately shut their mouths, afraid of stirring up trouble.

Ya Wenzhen walked into the store, sweeping the room with her sharp gaze before turning to the middle-aged store owner and inquiring, "Owner, could you please tell me how to get to Zhang Wenying’s home?"

Everyone in the store was startled and looked at Ya Wenzhen with shock in their eyes.

They were actually going to Old Lady Zhang’s home!

The store owner asked with a smile, "Are you relatives of the Zhang family?"

Ya Wenzhen shook her head, "We’re here on some official business, looking for Zhang Wenying."

The store owner paused, then said with a look of regret, "Then you’re too late, Old Lady Zhang passed away yesterday, I thought you were here to attend the funeral at the Zhang family’s home!"

Ya Wenzhen continued to question, "Wasn’t she said to be only sick? How did she pass away so quickly?"

The store owner sighed softly, "That matter, ah, it’s really hard to say."

Another middle-aged man in the store scoffed, "What’s there to be hard to say about it? It’s just that Old Lady Zhang’s unfilial children angered her to death. I heard them quarreling at their home yesterday morning, something about money, and by the afternoon, I heard Old Lady Zhang had passed away, they must have infuriated her to death, those wretched offspring."

Ya Wenzhen’s face showed an expression of sudden realization.

She asked further, "Do you know if Old Lady Zhang applied for a charity medical aid fund of 150,000 yuan from the Xingxi Charity Foundation in the city?"

The moment Ya Wenzhen said this, the people immediately exclaimed in surprise, "No way? Damn, that fatso Zhang really was a crook! He himself had money, not only did he not treat his mother’s illness, he just left her in the old home, never caring for her, and the application for charity funds must have been his doing!"

"Exactly, just yesterday I was wondering why all three siblings had come back, I thought they finally felt guilty."

"Such heartless bastards, why doesn’t the Almighty strike them down with lightning!"

"To be honest, Old Lady Zhang’s passing is a kind of liberation..."

Ya Wenzhen, feigning ignorance again, asked, "Wasn’t it said before that Old Lady Zhang’s son had a mountain of debt, and that’s why they had no money for treatment?"

The man who had cursed Fatso Zhang earlier said in disdain, "That was just an excuse he made because he didn’t want to treat his mother. Fatso Zhang owns several apartments in the city and has a number of shops for rent, does he sound like someone with no money? What a joke!"

Hearing all this, Ya Wenzhen could almost piece together the entire truth of the matter.

"Thanks to the store owner and the middle-aged man, we’ll head over to Old Mrs. Zhang’s place now," she said to them.

The middle-aged man who spoke earlier stood up, "Shall I take you guys over?"

In truth, he also wanted to join in on the excitement, to see exactly what kind of people Ya Wenzhen and her companions were and what they were here for.

Ya Wenzhen nodded to him, "That would be great, thanks."

Once back in the car, Ya Wenzhen briefly and concisely explained to Shen Tianxing and Long Yang the information they had just gathered.

Shen Tianxing already knew what was discussed because he had released his Divine Sense earlier.

However, Long Yang was unaware, so Shen Tianxing didn’t prevent Ya Wenzhen from speaking.

Shen Tianxing asked Long Yang with a cold voice, "Who is following up on Old Mrs. Zhang’s field investigation request? How could the field team not have discovered such an obvious case of fraud?"

Seeing Shen Tianxing’s displeased expression, Long Yang felt a chill, "The field investigation for this request was done by Lang Zhiming. We’ll investigate thoroughly when we get back and see what happened."

Shen Tianxing simply hummed in acknowledgment, without adding anything more.

Ya Wenzhen had already started the car, following behind the middle-aged man, heading once more towards Zhang Wenying’s home.

Zhang Wenying’s home.

Her son, Fatty Zhang, had eyes that gleamed with cunning. Seeing a luxury car approaching, he watched eagerly.

As the luxury car pulled up in front of his house, Fatty Zhang rushed over with a flattering smile, waiting for the occupants to step out.

In his view, whoever could afford such a luxury car must be extraordinary.

The relatives and villagers who had come to help at the Zhang Family’s home also came out to watch the excitement.

When Ya Wenzhen, Long Yang, and Shen Tianxing got out of the car, Fatty Zhang greeted them with a smile, "Ladies, who are you looking for?"

Ya Wenzhen gave him a sidelong glance and asked faintly, "Is this the Zhang Wenying residence?"

Hearing that they were indeed there for his home, Fatty Zhang immediately smiled, "Yes, yes, this is the Zhang Wenying residence. Zhang Wenying is my mother. May I ask who you are?"

Shen Tianxing saw that even though Fatty Zhang’s mother had died, there wasn’t a trace of sadness or grief on his face. Even at a time like this, he only remembered to curry favor and to see what he could gain from others.

She directly activated her Divine Sense and planted a Truth Spell within Fatty Zhang’s mind.

Noticing that quite a crowd had gathered around, Shen Tianxing asked him directly, "Mr. Zhang, I heard that Old Mrs. Zhang has passed away. How did she die? Can you tell us?"

The smile on Fatty Zhang’s chubby face vanished instantly, replaced by a sinister look as he began to curse loudly, "That old hag! I applied for the charity fund for her, and she cursed us, saying she didn’t want me to collect it. She even threatened me with death. In a fit of anger, I smothered her with a blanket! I never expected that old hag would actually die, hehehehe..."

As soon as he spoke these words, the relatives and villagers of the Zhang Family standing around him were left dumbfounded, their faces showing utter shock.

Fatty Zhang’s wife, infuriated by his words, pinched him hard and slapped him while scolding loudly, "You drunken fool, what nonsense are you spouting? Have you been drinking again? Get inside this instant and burn paper money for the old lady!"
