Although he only said it casually and didn't think it would be of much use, the police took it very seriously when they heard the news and realized the seriousness of the matter.

After all, the young man was carrying important research data, and given the special nature of the Southern Province, it was hard not to speculate about his going there at this time.

At this point, even the police began to suspect that the young man might be a spy.

They immediately dispatched some people to investigate the young man's hometown, and others to the train station to check the train schedules to the southern province in the next few days.

Shortly after receiving the news, before they could even investigate, they received a report that an unidentified body had been found near the train station.

Although it was uncertain whether the young man was the killer, the police had a bad feeling and suspected that there was a high probability that he had already taken someone else's identity and fled.

So the military region in Beijing immediately contacted them to help check the trains that departed from Beijing in those days.

However, because the body was found to be disfigured and no identification information was left on it, it was not possible to find out whose identity the young man had impersonated for the time being.

Therefore, we can only check the train schedules one by one based on the train numbers for those days.

The reason for choosing Qingshui County instead of Nan Province for the investigation is that it is the final stop, and they were afraid that they would not be able to find it after getting off the bus.

Furthermore, Nan Province is a large station with a lot of people, and I'm afraid that something might happen.

In addition, they received the news a few days late, so they only had time to quickly stop the train temporarily and wait in Qingshui County to conduct investigations.

However, because the soldiers did not have his photo, and they only knew his general appearance from the descriptions given by the people who had been arrested, the investigation was quite difficult, which is why so much time was wasted.

Fortunately, the young man was eventually caught.

The biggest surprise was the gun in his hand, something they hadn't expected.

Because from beginning to end, they never expected that a few thugs would dare to kill someone, especially a soldier.

It was because the police were so surprised and anxious when they found out that the young man was going to the southern province and even wanted to leave there to seek refuge with foreign forces that they were too busy thinking about how to arrest him and didn't continue to ask questions.

Furthermore, they didn't believe that a soldier with a gun could be killed so easily; they assumed he had gone to find someone and never expected him to die.

So he didn't know beforehand that his gun had been stolen, which led to all the subsequent events.

However, this accident was still due to their negligence. They gave the wrong information without thoroughly interrogating the victim. Fortunately, Su He was there, otherwise the consequences of this incident could have been very serious.

Therefore, the military plans not only to reward her, but also to issue a letter of commendation to her unit.

Su He refused the reward immediately after hearing this, since she had only acted instinctively under the circumstances.

She didn't refuse the letter of commendation, as it was a symbol of honor in those days. So she simply asked Lin Jingshuo to tell the military that she was currently unemployed and that the letter could be sent to the school.

Lin Jingshuo nodded in agreement.

After hearing this, Lin's mother felt a mix of emotion and lingering fear. "I never imagined we'd be sitting with a murderer all the way here. It's really unbelievable!"

Su He nodded, "Yes, no one expected him to be a murderer."

Shu Qing said, "Murderers don't write those three words on their foreheads. Anyway, we were lucky to escape with our lives this time. Luckily, Xiao He reacted quickly."

"Yes, that's right." Lin's mother was also filled with lingering fear.

Su He smiled and said nothing. It just meant they were unlucky to have encountered this situation.
