Just when everyone was at a loss, Song Minghui suggested that they could post Guo Dahe's portrait in the newspaper and in the villages near Guojia Brigade as a wanted notice.

The public is encouraged to help with the search, and anyone who sees the item is urged to report it to the police immediately. The police will also provide a reward to those who report the incident.

Everyone thought this was a good idea. This way, unless Guo Dahe stayed on the mountain forever, everyone would probably want to kill him the moment he showed his face. It was indeed a good method.

So the police station immediately sent someone to make arrangements.

Seeing this, Su He and the others decided to return to the Municipal Bureau first.

Before he could even leave, an officer from the police station rushed over.

"I just received news from Fan Ren. He was in a daze because of the shock he suffered because of his family. He wasn't watching where he was going today and accidentally fell into a roadside ditch. He's in the hospital now."

When Su He and the others heard this, they all sighed, feeling that he was really pitiful. His parents, wife, and children were all dead, and he was all alone at home. There was probably no point in living anymore.

Fearing he might do something rash, the police decided to visit him in the hospital.

Su He, having nothing else to do, went along too.

On the way, she learned about Fan Ren's situation from the police at the local police station.

Fan Ren is 25 years old this year. He has been married for five years. His wife is from another place, and they have a son and a daughter.

He currently works at a chemical plant, and because he is very busy at the plant, he spends most of his time living in the dormitory.

The factory has been busier lately, so the workers are working in three shifts, each shift lasting eight hours. On that day, he started work at 4 p.m. and finished at midnight.

Because it was too late, Fan Ren went straight back to his dormitory to sleep after get off work, and unexpectedly, he escaped a disaster because of this.

However, seeing his family destroyed and him now all alone, it's probably something most people couldn't handle.

Su He saw Fan Ren, who had been bandaged up, at the hospital.

He was lying in a hospital bed with a broken arm, staring blankly at the ceiling.

She looks very thin; I don't know if she's always been this thin or if she's just recently lost weight.

In short, he looked very haggard.

When the police officer from the local police station saw him like this, he sighed and stepped forward to ask, "Xiao Fan, are you alright?"

Fan Ren turned around to look at him after hearing the voice, and then, as if a beat slow, it took him a moment to recognize who he was, and his eyes immediately turned red.

"Officer Wu, what brings you here? Have you caught the murderer?"

Officer Wu shook his head apologetically, "Not yet. Guo Dahe has gone into hiding. It will take some time. We heard you had an accident and came to check on you."

Hearing him mention Guo Dahe, Fan Ren finally reacted, gritting his teeth and saying, "He actually went into hiding! How dare he? What did our family do to offend him? How could he be so heartless as to..."

At this point, large tears welled up in Fan Ren's eyes, and he seemed unable to hold back any longer, bursting into sobs.

Everyone else who saw this felt heartbroken.

Men don't easily shed tears, unless they've reached a point of deep sorrow.

Su He originally came over to ask him some questions, but seeing him like this, she couldn't bring herself to ask.

After Officer Wu and his team calmed him down, the group left.

However, after leaving the hospital, Su He still asked Officer Wu about the things she was curious about.

Why did the Fan family suddenly refuse to let Guo Dahe become their son-in-law?
