Everyone's attention was focused on the case, so no one heard what was being said outside.
I could only faintly hear hurried footsteps and things like "dead" and "go check it out."
Upon hearing this, everyone felt a chill run down their spines.
Captain Sun frowned as well. "Let's go take a look."
When the group caught up to the outside, they saw a large group of dozens of people running towards the entrance of the residential compound.
Now everyone's anxiety finally subsided.
Judging from this situation, there must have been another murder!
At that moment, Jiang Si spotted the second son in the crowd.
“Weimin”.
Hearing someone call his name, the second son immediately stopped.
Upon seeing that it was a beautiful aunt, he immediately ran back with a scurry scurry.
Before he could even speak, Captain Sun looked over with a serious expression.
"Young comrade, where did you find the body?"
The second child blinked, sensing that the uncle's question was a bit off.
But her body responded faster than her mind, "The seaside."
Captain Sun gave a knowing look and then asked, "Was the deceased male or female?"
Um?
The second child frowned, finally understanding why something was wrong.
"It wasn't a person who died."
Not human?
What is that?
Captain Sun felt completely confused.
The second son said, "It's a fish."
"You mean, a fish died on the beach?"
"yes."
Jiang Si was puzzled as to why these people were so happy about the death of just a fish.
They rushed forward with incredible speed, each carrying a basket.
Just then, the second son said, "That's no ordinary fish!"
He gestured, "It's as big as a boat."
Jiang Si: "You mean whales?"
“Yes.” The second son nodded. “If we boil this down, we can make soap and use it to light oil lamps.”
Typhoons occur on the island every summer, and power outages can last for up to a week.
Pick a piece of fatty whale meat; it will last a long time!
The second child looked excited. "Auntie, are you going? That fish is huge. If we go now, we can get a lot."
Jiang Si neither said she would go nor she wouldn't go; she simply asked a question.
Does your mother agree to let you go?
"..."
The second child immediately wilted.
Captain Sun breathed a sigh of relief.
The others who followed had the same reaction.
Thank goodness, they were really scared to death just now.
If another murder were to occur during the Lunar New Year, they would all be doomed.
After confirming that no murders had occurred, Captain Sun did not stay any longer. After chatting for a few more minutes, he prepared to take his leave.
Before leaving, Captain Sun took a pair of enamel mugs and fifty yuan from his briefcase and handed them to Jiang Si.
This will provide clues for solving the case, and the public security system will give some rewards as appropriate.
Jiang Si was not only a witness in this case, but also provided them with many clues during the subsequent investigation.
Otherwise, this case would have to drag on for at least another one to two months.
After receiving the reward, Jiang Si glanced at her listless little brother.
"Want some popsicles? Auntie will treat you."
Perhaps due to pregnancy, she feels extremely hot and restless every day and craves cold foods.
Fortunately, popsicles from that era didn't have many additives, so it was okay to eat one occasionally.
Of course, the premise is that Uncle San and Uncle Zhong cannot see it.
Upon hearing that there would be popsicles to eat, the second child nodded vigorously, "Yes! Thank you, Auntie."
The two went to the service center.
Jiang Si paid for two red bean popsicles.
A moment later, the salesperson opened the white wooden box, took out two popsicles with wisps of white steam, and handed them over.
Jiang Si tore off the outer layer of wax paper. "Here you go, take it."
The second child took a sip, his eyes narrowing into crescents, "So sweet."
"Let's go home."
The two walked back, chatting and laughing as they ate their popsicles.
If you're unlucky, even drinking cold water can cause problems.
Just as Jiang Si was about to arrive home, she spotted her third uncle and Uncle Zhong.
Fortunately, they were facing away from him at that moment.
So, Jiang Si quickly ate the popsicle in her hand.
The speed was so fast that even the youngest son was dumbfounded.
He thought that only children would secretly eat popsicles.
I never thought that even now that I'm grown up, I still have to eat it secretly.
As if sensing something, Third Uncle and Uncle Zhong suddenly turned around.
The second son glanced at his third uncle and Uncle Zhong, then at Jiang Si, who was so cold she couldn't even speak.
"Auntie—"
Jiang Si: "What's wrong?"
The second child blinked, gesturing for her to look ahead.
This scene is just like when I'm daydreaming in class and then my deskmate reminds me.
It's hard for Jiang Si not to guess what will happen next.
There's no use in being anxious now that things have come to this.
Jiang Si obediently finished the popsicle in her mouth, then smiled and said, "Third Uncle—"
Seeing her sneak around while eating an ice pop, Uncle San was both annoyed and amused.
With the younger brother present, he couldn't say anything.
After the second child finished her popsicle and returned home, the third uncle angrily tapped her forehead.
"All those words I said a few days ago were wasted."
He didn't want to say that what you're doing is bad for the baby in your belly.
I didn't want to say anything to scare her.
