At that moment, she was preoccupied with other things and had no interest in inviting her best friend and her husband over for drinks and a lively time.

The husband is a long-time secret agent who has been hiding in the Hongqi Factory. She also murdered Liu Xianghai, whose public identity is a barber. In reality, she is a veteran secret agent named Liu Han. She is now carrying the identity of a murderer. The municipal and county-level public security investigation teams are making every effort to solve the secret agent case and the murder case.

During such a special period, how could she be in the mood to invite her best friend and her husband to her home?

Her composure on the surface was due to Jiang Yuping's innate strong mental fortitude, a facade that ordinary people couldn't detect at all.

But Jiang Yuping knew in her heart that the investigation team might have already collected information about her, otherwise they wouldn't have called her in for a talk.

After all, she had two contacts with Liu Han and was connected to the deceased. Theoretically speaking, anyone who had contact with the victim could be considered a suspect.

An old jeep stopped with a 'click' outside the clinic, and two middle-aged men in police uniforms bent down and got out of the car.

Upon seeing that one of them was Cheng Xiaoming, a forensic doctor sent by the Municipal Bureau, Wei Hong said to Jiang Yuping:

"Yu Ping, I can't keep you company. The forensic doctor from the Municipal Public Security Bureau is here. Lao Liang asked me to accompany him. We need to go to the guesthouse together to report on our work later."

Jiang Yuping didn't think much of it or ask any questions. She just hummed in agreement and watched her best friend leave the office.

Deep down, she hoped that the city bureau's forensic autopsy would conclude that it was a homicide. This would complicate the case and reduce the focus on her and her husband, since she was quite certain that Niu Dajiang's death had nothing to do with them.

Around four o'clock, Jiang Yuping greeted Zheng Haidong, the director of the medical office, and then rode her bicycle to the nearby market to buy groceries.

Although the Hongqi Factory has a staff canteen and the food is not expensive, most families still go home to cook after work.

On the one hand, it may have the taste and feeling of home; on the other hand, in terms of cost, it is more economical than buying meals from the canteen with meal tickets.

After all, it was a large factory with 2,000 employees. As the number of employees buying vegetables increased, it prompted nearby villagers to carry fresh vegetables grown in front of and behind their houses to the stalls outside the west gate of the factory for sale, either in bamboo baskets or in trays.

Jiang Yuping rode her bicycle to the west gate of the factory area, passed through the small iron gate, locked her bicycle, and then walked into the temporary vegetable market with her bag.

At that time, there were many villagers selling various fresh vegetables at temporary stalls outside the West Gate, which looked very eye-catching.

Chili peppers, chives, eggplants, tomatoes, cucumbers, winter melons, pumpkins, watermelons—you name it, they have it all.

"Dr. Jiang, you're here to buy groceries too?"

A well-dressed middle-aged woman asked Jiang Yuping.
