Everyone was a little surprised by this, even Pei Guoan. They had been working on this case and had indeed neglected the countryside. After all, the case happened in the county town, and there were similar cases in the provincial capital.
"Miaomiao, you said the precautions in the countryside are stricter than in the city. What's going on?"
Pei Guoan had a hunch that this matter might be related to his wife.
"That day I came back from the county town and learned about the serial murders. I felt it was dangerous, so I notified the people in my village and also informed the people in the nearby villages."
“There’s a difference between knowing and being defensive.”
Zhou Shao felt that Li Miaomiao was a kind-hearted girl who could do this, but even if she knew about this, the situation in the countryside was different and there were no people in uniform, so it was still not safe.
"Well, I guess I made the situation sound serious, and other villages followed our example. We built a soap factory, and the team leader was concerned about the factory's situation and was afraid of leaking confidential information, so he conducted strict inspections. People misunderstood and followed suit."
Now everyone understands
"If you don't believe me, you can go and try it. Maybe some villages have such strict defenses."
Zhou Shao nodded when he heard this. He must go and check out the situation in each village. However, he would know whether it was as Li Miaomiao said when he got to the village.
In any case, it is better for the villagers to have defense than not to have it.
The few of them discussed some things before going to the village to understand the situation and make some arrangements.
When they came back in the afternoon, when they talked about Pei Guoan's incident, they looked at Li Miaomiao with different eyes.
This girl is an amazing person. They thought that there were only a few nearby villages and that even if they took precautions, they would not be any more than this. However, they did not expect that before they even stepped into the village, they were surrounded by the defense teams of each village, almost without exception.
They finally managed to explain the situation clearly and prove their identities before they were allowed to leave the village. Otherwise, the villagers would have taken them to the county public security bureau.
"Sister-in-law, how did you do this? Even if the bureau specifically instructed everyone to do this, it might not have such an effect. This is no worse than guarding against the Japanese back then."
Yan Cheng feels that Pei Guoan, his wife, always makes him refresh his cognition
"It's nothing, actually. It's not that the soap workshop in our village went very smoothly this year, so everyone seems to be emulating our approach. Secondly, as I mentioned before, I probably exaggerated the situation and scared everyone. Plus, the comparisons between villages led to this situation. Actually, there's nothing wrong with this, so I didn't warn everyone."
Li Miaomiao understood everyone's psychology too well. Moreover, each village was on high alert, which gave everyone a different feeling and made them even more alert.
After hearing this, several people thought that this woman, Li Miaomiao, was amazing.
"Also, sister-in-law, how many villages have you notified?"
"We traveled to every village within a mile, anywhere we could reach by bicycle. Sister Zhang Ying and I were so tired that we rested for a whole day before we recovered."
Even Pei Guoan felt that his wife was really capable after hearing what Li Miaomiao said. He had been so busy these days that he didn't even know that his wife had done such a big thing.
Everyone was silent at Li Miaomiao's words.
Even Zhou Shao admired Li Miaomiao.
Li Miaomiao is so different from the women he has met in his circle. Although they all look delicate and weak, and Li Miaomiao even looks more petite and has a better temperament, she is more capable than him as a man.
"Sister-in-law, this time it's really thanks to you. Because of you, the villagers in the village were alert and no one was harmed."
This was acknowledged not only by Zhou Shao but also by everyone present.
"I just informed everyone. Besides, this was originally suggested by our village leader, so I won't take credit for it."
Li Miaomiao's behavior made everyone admire her even more. Not everyone can keep their original heart at this time.
Li Miaomiao, on the other hand, remembered that the book seemed to mention that the murderer's accomplice was hiding in a village. He had been lurking in the village for quite some time and no one suspected him. Later, he was discovered because of something.
The reason why it is mentioned in the children's book seems to be that it has something to do with Pei Guoan's family.
Li Miaomiao couldn't remember it for the moment, but even if she couldn't remember it, the fact that there was such a thing in the book was enough to alert her.
"No matter what, you have made an indelible contribution, sister-in-law."
"We're all from the same village, and no one wants to see anything happen. But I think you shouldn't let your guard down just because of this. The murderer wasn't an individual, but a gang. They had planned this in advance. Could they have been lurking in some village? These people can't just appear out of nowhere. We still have to investigate thoroughly and not let any bad guys go."
Everyone was thoughtful after hearing what Li Miaomiao said, and they all agreed with it.
They knew more about the case than Li Miaomiao, especially Zhou Shao, who knew better the nature of those people across the sea, so what Li Miaomiao said was absolutely very likely.
"But at a time like this, if there really are accomplices of the murderer lurking in the village, our large-scale search will make them desperate and harm the villagers."
Pei Guoan nodded: "Not only that, we are in the open, and the enemy is in the dark. Once they realize something is wrong, they will probably flee, causing us to fail."
"Guoan is right. This is also the difficult part."
"If that's the case, we can't just do nothing." Chu Suinan frowned and said, this is not okay and that is not okay, which gives him a headache.
"Or we could secretly notify the leaders of each village and arrange things. But what kind of excuse should we find to avoid suspicion? The other party is very cunning, and they will definitely flee if they sense something is wrong."
Li Miaomiao looked at their worried expressions and said, "Actually, I don't think this is that difficult."
Li Miaomiao's interruption again made everyone's attention fall on her again.
"Sister-in-law, what good idea do you have?"
"This will draw too much attention to you. Even if we contact them secretly, we don't know the identities of the other party hiding in the village, so there's still a chance they'll be discovered. Why don't we have our village captain come forward and invite captains from all the other villages to come over? As long as we come up with a good excuse, it won't arouse suspicion."
"Sister-in-law, your idea is good. I think it's feasible." Yan Cheng felt that Li Miaomiao was a very smart person.
"Just looking for an excuse?"
"I think it's better to let our team leader take care of this. Explain the situation to him and he will know what to do." Li Miaomiao said this with great certainty. If Zhang Degen didn't have this ability, he would have been killed by Accountant Wu long ago. What's more, compared with Zhou Shao and others, Zhang Degen knew the situation in each village better.
