Chapter 727: 727, most crucially, resolutely move forward
In recent months, Shi Yuhuan has spent every sleepless night going through his grandfather’s old investigation files, reading them over and over again.
What he looked at the most was a section about his grandfather’s trip to Korea from more than forty years ago.
Originally, the trip was to Korea, but for some inexplicable reason, he returned home ahead of schedule.
It was said that on the day he came back, he saw grandma with the old butler; in a fit of anger, he murdered grandma, the butler, and all the servants who knew the truth at the time.
However, the story that was put out was that the grandma had unintentionally drowned in the pool.
But what is the actual truth?
Did something really happen between grandma and the butler? When this rumor came out, no one believed it. Everyone said that the grandma loved grandpa very much and it was impossible for her to have something going on with the butler. So, how did things actually unfold?
What exactly happened that made grandpa kill grandma and the butler?
The two parties involved are dead, the servants who knew everything are also dead, and the only one who knows is grandpa.
But asking grandpa would be the same as asking nothing.
Afterwards, grandpa locked himself in the room for several days and nights. Everyone said he was missing grandma. After he came out, his temperament seemed to have changed and he was sometimes very irritable.
But no one gave it much thought at the time and simply attributed the change in his temperament to grandma’s death.
Each time he read this section, there was something that seemed odd to Shi Yuhuan.
What was the strangeness? Shi Yuhuan couldn’t articulate it at the moment.
Did grandpa discover grandma’s affair with the butler and doubt whether the two children were his own? Is that why he killed the grandma and the butler? Did he also kill his father and uncle afterwards because of this?
But reportedly, not long after the incident and grandma’s death, grandpa had a paternity test done on the two sons, and it was proven that they were indeed his?
The answer is, definitely!
So, it could not have been due to blood relations? Of course, there is a strong possibility that the paternity test was fake.
Shi Yuhuan considered conducting another paternity test with grandpa, but getting close to grandpa, let alone obtaining his strand of hair, was nearly impossible.
Moreover, Shi Yuhuan felt that the matter didn’t seem to have much to do with this aspect.
Korea! This is the key.
If grandpa had already discovered the affair between grandma and the butler, he shouldn’t have flown to Korea first and then returned, but should’ve immediately returned home to catch them in the act.
What happened then in Korea that made him return home as soon as he arrived?
Everything seems quite eerie no matter how you look at it.
Therefore, Shi Yuhuan decided to go to Korea personally to find the reason for his grandfather’s abrupt return home back then.
Shi Yuhuan only took Xia Yang and a pilot, Xiaozhuang, with him to Korea.
The three of them travelled together on a small private plane across the sea and sky.
The plane traversed through the sky, over eight thousand meters high amongst the dense clouds. They were set to enter Korean territory in two hours.
Shi Yuhuan sat silently in his seat the whole time, staring into the distance without blinking. But it was midnight now, and he couldn’t see anything outside.
Xia Yang, sitting beside him, could see that Shi Yuhuan had a lot on his mind. He hoped that this trip to Korea could solve all the mysteries.
As time went by, when their small plane entered Korean airspace, it suddenly deviated from its course.
