"Ugh, help!"

She frantically patted the water with both hands, and just as she surfaced, she felt something pressing against her back, pushing her back to the bottom of the river.

"Chen Haiying, Chen Haiying~" came the call from afar.

It is Liu Qunfu, the current head of the educated youth settlement.

He didn't expect that Chen Haiying, provoked by Zhou Huijuan, would actually go fishing.

It was getting completely dark, and there had been a series of accidents happening in the village recently.

As the station leader, he had no choice but to go out and search for the team in order to consider the overall situation.

Upon hearing Liu Qunfu's call, the shadowy figure by the river anxiously threw down his fishing rod and fled.

Chen Haiying, who had been pushed to the bottom of the water, felt the force on her back disappear and quickly struggled to get herself to the surface.

"Help! Help!"

"Someone's committed murder!"

Chen Haiying, who had just brushed with death, was terrified.

"Hmph, you got off easy."

His fingers unconsciously reached into his pocket for brown sugar.

My body stiffened.

The brown sugar cubes are gone.

Shen Chuntao's face turned deathly pale, and a thin layer of sweat instantly appeared on her forehead.

He quickly returned to the well and poured out the clothes he had brought to wash, scattering them on the ground.

Then he hurried toward the cowshed.

Bang bang bang~

"Brother Gangzi, Brother Gangzi?"

With a creak, the door opened a crack, and Chen Chuntao cautiously slipped inside.

"Brother Gangzi, let's run away quickly."

"I heard that the police found a hand rope in the reeds this afternoon."

"It's the one you couldn't find last time."

“On my way to deliver the news to you, I almost ran into Chen Haiying from the educated youth settlement. In my haste, I pushed her into the river.”

"Waaaaah, I left my things there."
