Chapter 549: Chapter 549: Secret (2)

Ah Chen bowed his head in acquiescence, his face calm as he bowed and complied, "Family Head, please calm your anger, I will handle this matter."

"Good, you may go. And keep a close watch on Guh Siqi, notify Country Jin to have the young miss return as soon as possible."

"Yes, Family Head."

...

It was just one day, and Second Miss Guh, Guh Siqing had passed away. New Year was approaching, and everyone felt it was a bad omen. However, before people could recover, another shocking piece of news spread.

The morning after Guh Siqing’s death, someone exercising in the morning found two bodies by the Chaoyong River, so decomposed that they were hardly recognizable as human remains. After some investigation, a clue emerged from a name-brand bracelet found on one of the bodies, leading to a startling discovery.

The two bodies turned out to be Qin Jia and Qin Fang from the Qin Family, who had been missing for a long time!

Given the gravity of the situation, the police department did not dare to act on its own and immediately notified Qin Dingshan to identify the bodies.

Hospital, morgue.

The quiet hallway was suddenly filled with the sound of hurried footsteps; then Qin Dingshan, supported by his younger daughter Qin Yu, strode over. Qin Laoer, Qin Feng, father of Qin Jia and Qin Fang, followed closely behind Qin Dingshan, his expression indescribable.

"Patriarch Qin, you’ve finally arrived," Director Huang of the hospital and Director Tang Zhishan of the police station stood up from the chairs in the corridor, quickly approaching Qin Dingshan with a large group of staff trailing behind them.

"Director Huang, Director Tang, I appreciate your efforts. What exactly happened here?" Qin Dingshan exchanged simple greetings with Director Huang and Director Tang, then got straight to the point.

The two men exchanged glances, and then Director Tang stepped forward and said in a low voice, "I’ll do the talking. Here’s what happened: this morning, a citizen was exercising by the Chaoyong River and noticed two decomposed bodies after the tide receded, a man and a woman. When we arrived, we found the male corpse with a newest limited edition bracelet from a certain brand on his wrist. According to professionals, there were only ten such bracelets in all of Xuandu City, and they were all purchased under real names. Following this lead, we discovered that your grandson Qin Fang had recently purchased one at the end of December. Therefore, to ensure the accuracy of the identities, we asked you to come all this way."

Qin Dingshan frowned deeply, his heart filled with turmoil. He had been psychologically prepared for the disappearance of Qin Fang and Qin Jia, but he had not expected them to appear before everyone in such a shocking manner.

With the sudden emergence of two bodies right before New Year, it was particularly distressing for Qin Dingshan, the Clan Leader of a great family.

However, distasteful as it was, he knew that the necessary procedures and formalities could not be skipped.

"I appreciate your intentions, what should we do next?" Qin Dingshan nodded, his face etched with sorrow as he spoke.

"It goes like this, Patriarch Qin," Director Huang pushed up his glasses, speaking respectfully, "I would like to take some samples of hair and saliva from the Qin family members for DNA comparison with the bodies. If the results match, then... erm..."

Director Huang hesitated to continue, but Qin Dingshan already understood and nodded, gesturing to Qin Laoer to proceed, "Laoer, go with Director Huang to collect the samples."

Qin Laoer, Qin Feng’s eyes flickered, and he spoke in a low voice, "Dad, I brought Shulan’s hair with me, let’s use hers."

With that, Qin Feng took out a small packet from his jacket pocket, containing several strands of Xiao Shulan’s hair from her clothing and hairbrush.
