Governor Zhang arrived urgently and revealed the truth: the three elders were heavily bribed by Cao Xiaoxiao and conspired together. Cao Xiaoxiao used shops and wealth as bait, and the four of them colluded shamelessly. Lu Lingfeng was filled with doubts, speculating whether this scheme originated from Cao Weng. If it were truly so, the depth of his family's scheming would be chilling.

After deep consideration, Su Wuming said earnestly to his junior fellow disciple beside him, "On the path of solving cases, we must never easily jump to conclusions. We must evaluate the case based on concrete evidence; otherwise, it is very easy to be misled and deviate from the path of truth. " Subsequently, Lu Lingfeng proposed going together to He Keke's shop, hoping to find new clues or discoveries there.

Facing the inquiry, He Keke said with a blank look that the goods she made had not been delivered to the Cao family, and at the same time, she felt very surprised and confused about the news that the Cao family had been suddenly sealed off. In his home which felt like a prison, seeing the delicious food brought by Su Wuming, although there was bitterness in his heart, he also felt a hint of surprise and solace.

He understood that although his current situation was like a prisoner, Su Wuming and the others did not truly see him as a criminal but merely temporarily restricted his freedom. Yelai was beside them, looking at the snacks Ying Tao handed over, and a warm current surged in her heart.

She deeply knew her status in the Cao family was humble and constantly felt the potential threat from those around her towards her son, even though these threats were not openly expressed. She carefully accepted the food and, full of joy, wanted to share this rare pleasure and care with her son. Cao Rong gazed at Xue Huan, complex emotions revealed in her eyes, and she frankly admitted the greed in her heart.

She mentioned the family property left by her father; if it weren't for greed, this wealth would be enough for her to live comfortably for the rest of her life, but she was unable to be satisfied with this. After conducting a thorough investigation, Su Wuming discovered that everyone in the family had an unfriendly attitude towards Duobao, especially Cao Weng, who often severely punished Duobao.

Cao Xiaoxiao interjected from the side, mentioning that although Duobao was quite caring towards her, his elder sister, and often brought back snacks, she also knew that the mystery of Duobao's identity had been uncovered by Su Wuming and others, and for this reason, she did not hesitate to poison him to cover up the truth.

Su Wuming revealed that during the interrogation of Cao Weng, he admitted the existence of the 'red neck' poison, while Cao Weng and another suspect pushed responsibility onto each other, attempting to exonerate the other, making the case even more confusing. Lu Lingfeng and Su Wuming were deeply confused by this, finding it difficult to determine who was more suspect. Lao Fei was outspoken.

He believed that Cao Xiaoxiao's behavior was extremely similar to that of the murderer, and that Cao Weng was well aware of Duobao's non-biological parentage, was extremely harsh towards Ding Mao, and even willing to take his life. He speculated that if Cao Weng was truly willing to take the blame for his daughter, that might prove a deep affection as a father.

However, Cao Weng voluntarily admitted he was Duobao's murderer, firmly stating that the matter had nothing to do with his daughter. He recalled that on the night the incident occurred, he unexpectedly discovered Duobao because he needed to use the restroom and killed him driven by anger and jealousy. He deeply knew Duobao was innocent, but because he was not his biological son and intended to seize the family property, it ultimately made him brutally kill him.

Finally, Cao Weng requested everyone to give him a severe punishment and tearfully kowtowed to his ancestors to repent, stating that he had committed unforgivable crimes and was willing to pay the price of the family's reputation in exchange for a moment of inner peace. Su Wuming sighed that he needed to strengthen his physical fitness, praising Cao Weng for still being agile at the age of sixty. Lu Lingfeng worried about how to help Cao Weng.

Cao Xiaoxiao cried bitterly upon hearing this, blaming herself for harming her father. She confessed frankly that because she feared the family property would be seized, she mistakenly killed Duobao, but in her heart, she actually couldn't bear to do it. Su Wuming revealed that Cao Weng did not administer the poison. Cao Xiaoxiao was startled, realizing something was strange, and urgently asked who the real murderer was. Su Wuming said that the father and daughter protected each other, almost allowing the real murderer to escape.
