When Chen Haonan rushed over with the messenger, he saw a group of people surrounding the river from afar. His father had already been fished out of the river. He was like a dead fish that was casually thrown into the mud by the river. Looking at his father's body that had been soaked in the river water until it turned white, Chen Haonan bit his lips tightly. His eyes were bloodshot as he walked over step by step.
His father's clothes were gone, and he was only wearing a pair of shorts. Chen Haonan kneeled beside his father and took off his coat to cover his father. His father's face was pale, but there was a faint smile on his face. It seemed that he was very peaceful when he left, without any pain. Looking at the lifeless corpse, Chen Haonan couldn't stop his tears from flowing down. Chen Haonan had imagined the scene of his father's death countless times in his mind. But strangely, when his dream came true and his father really died in front of him, for some reason, Chen Haonan felt no joy in his heart. Instead, he felt empty, as if his heart had been taken away. He wanted to cry, but for some reason, he couldn't.
A police officer walked behind Chen Haonan and threw a pile of torn clothes at him coldly.""Are you the family of the deceased? According to the police's preliminary investigation, your father committed suicide. The autopsy showed that your father was completely unharmed. At the same time, we found that your father drank a lot of alcohol when he was alive. We also found your father's belongings in a dry place under the bridge by the river. The letter also explained the cause of his suicide. If you have no objections, can you sign this report?”
Chen Haonan didn't hear what the police officer said at all. He just signed his name on the report mechanically. After signing, Chen Haonan bent down and wanted to carry his father on his back. However, because he had been dead for too long, his father's corpse had already begun to harden and could not bend. Chen Haonan couldn't bear to destroy his father's body, so he changed his posture and picked up his father's cold body.
His father's corpse was surprisingly light. When he thought of how his father would often carry him like this when he was young, and then drag him in the air to fly briskly, Chen Haonan's suppressed tears finally flowed down. His tears gradually blurred his vision.
Time was a merciless carving knife. Ten years had allowed Chen Haonan to grow from a little kid into a strong man. At the same time, it had also turned his once imposing father into an old shell.
Stepping on the mud after the rain, Chen Haonan carried his father's body and walked home. "Daddy, I'll take you home! I'll take you home." Chen Haonan's brain had already stopped thinking. There was only one thought in his mind.
After walking for a short while, the police officer's cold voice suddenly came from behind."Hey, wait a minute. I haven't paid yet!”
"Pay?" Chen Haonan was stunned." What money?”
"What money? What money do you want?" The police officer shouted rudely," Your father committed suicide and fell into the river. We got someone to fish your father out of the river. Then, in order to find out the cause of his death, we even hired someone to do a post-mortem on him. Also, today is a rest day. We used our rest time to come here to handle the case. Shouldn't we make up for it?”
Chen Haonan, who had just lost his father, lost his usual composure when he saw the shameless faces of the police officers who were trying to make a fortune out of a dead man. He suppressed the anger in his heart and said,""Thank you for fishing my father out of the river. "But…" Chen Haonan changed the topic and questioned loudly,""But my father's entire body is intact. Where are the traces of a corpse examination? And I didn't see any doctor by the river. Also, your duty as a police officer is to investigate the scene and solve the case. Why are you asking us for money? I'll pay for the salvage, but I don't have a single cent for these two items!”
"Brat, you're quite unreasonable!" The police officers, who had always relied on the power in their hands and were used to being overbearing, did not expect that they would be pointed at and insulted by a young man. They immediately flew into a rage out of humiliation and rushed over." Kid, if you don't take out the money today, don't even think about taking the corpse away!”The police officers who had surrounded Chen Haonan started to attack him without any explanation. Although Chen Haonan practiced boxing, he was holding his father's body with both hands. It was difficult for him to move and he could not resist at all.
The policeman kicked Chen Haonan's calf from behind. Chen Haonan lost his balance and fell to his knees. Due to inertia, his father's body was thrown out and rolled into the mud along the river bank. The police officers pressed down on Chen Haonan's body and handcuffed his hands behind his back.
Looking at his father in the mud, Chen Haonan cried out in pain. He couldn't let his father be humiliated after his death. He struggled desperately. Although his long-term training had given him a physique that was different from his peers, his resistance seemed so powerless in front of a few policemen who had absolute strength.
"Little brat, I didn't expect you to be so strong!”The policemen, who had an overwhelming advantage, teased him and pressed Chen Haonan's head into the mud." Kid, take out the money and take the body away, or else-" The policemen sneered evilly. Then, a few of them walked to the side of his father's body and lifted it up. They walked to the river and made a tossing gesture. The policemen did not speak, but their meaning was clear. Without money, your father can only go back to the river to feed the fish and prawns. Although the rain had stopped, the river was still flowing rapidly. If his father's body entered the river again, he might really end up in the fish's stomach.
"You bastards!" Chen Haonan screamed in pain.
Looking at Chen Haonan struggling under their feet like an ant, the police officers laughed happily.
There was a sudden muffled sound in the sky. Thunder had struck again, and the already gray sky became even gloomier.
"F * ck, it's going to rain again!" The policemen stopped laughing and asked sternly again,"Brat, our patience is limited. Let's ask you again, are you going to take the money or not?”
Looking at his father's tortured corpse, Chen Haonan's tears fell like rain, and his heart felt like it was being cut by a knife. Chen Haonan didn't have any extra money. Moreover, the number that the police wanted was enough for him and his mother to spend a month. Chen Haonan really didn't have any extra money to pay for this.
While Chen Haonan was silent, the police had already lost their patience.
"Throw the corpse down!" The police officer coldly conveyed his instructions to his companions.
