It wasn't until Liu Daneng confessed that the truth came to light again.
Liu Daneng was also filial. In order to prevent his mother from being crushed, he placed the body of Yue from upstairs under his mother.
According to his simple thinking, if he suppressed the moon upstairs, he wouldn't dare to challenge his mother downstairs.
When the body was raised, a large crowd of villagers gathered around to watch the spectacle, standing at the foot of the mountain and observing from afar.
Twenty years had passed, and he had long since turned into a skeleton. In fact, due to the poor quality of the coffin, water had seeped in, and the bones had been washed away and mixed together.
The forensic doctor could only collect them all and then sort them out later.
No one present could bear to look closely.
When Lou's parents received the body identification notice, they couldn't believe that their beloved daughter had really been found.
They remained calm. When they saw their daughter, now a pile of bones, the mother gently stroked her: "Good girl, Mom will take you home soon."
The accompanying criminal police officers and forensic doctors all turned their heads away.
My beloved daughter, now only bones, suffered in life and cannot find peace in death. Who can accept this?
As they came out, Lou's mother asked the police officer in charge, "How long will it take to get a verdict?"
"I'm sorry, it's hard to say, but I'll do it as soon as possible."
Lou's mother glanced back at the forensic room and said calmly, "Hurry up, or how will we face her?"
Lou's father put his arm around her shoulder to comfort her, a very unpleasant smile on his face. "We've found her. We can still save face when we go down to see him."
"Do you think she'll blame us for taking so long to find her?"
His words made everyone present feel extremely uncomfortable.
Peng Huiming, Yue's ex-boyfriend, came over after receiving the news.
He is married with children, but over the years, he still goes upstairs to help out at Yue's house.
Lou's mother once advised him, "You've done enough, don't come again." Coming again would only remind them of their poor daughter. He's just a boyfriend; they're not related, there's no need. Besides, he has his own family now, to avoid creating discord within them.
Peng Huiming probably realized something and gradually reduced his contact with them, but he would still send them some things during holidays and secretly slip them some money.
This made him feel a little better. If he hadn't worked overtime that day and had gone to pick up Yue from upstairs, would the outcome have been different?
But there are never "what ifs".
When Lou's parents saw Peng Huiming, they said casually, "You've come. Go see her."
My daughter really liked Peng Huiming back then; they were already talking about marriage and had even agreed on the bride price. Unfortunately, everything changed that day.
Peng Huiming was depressed for a long time, but later, because of his parents, he started a new family.
Lou's parents had no objection to this, and Lou Shangyue would not want to see Peng Huiming live a lonely life.
Peng Huiming has no legal relationship with Lou Shangyue, and he needs the consent of Lou's parents to see her.
With trembling hands, he lifted the white sheet, and the emotions that had been weighing on his heart for the past twenty years were released all at once. He knelt down on the ground, crying, "I'm sorry for making you suffer all these years."
So many years have passed, and the love may have faded, but this woman disappeared suddenly when he loved her the most. Perhaps her disappearance was also due to his own reasons, and Peng Huiming cannot forgive himself.
These thoughts weighed heavily on his mind, and he hated himself whenever he thought about them.
His wife had heard about his situation before, and she understood Peng Huiming's inner pain. She had always turned a blind eye to his help to Lou's parents. Otherwise, Peng Huiming might have already broken down.
After Jiang Si finished performing the ritual to help the wronged souls pass on, she should send them into the cycle of reincarnation. If she is too slow, they will miss the time to be reborn forever.
But seeing those parents, Jiang Si couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
Life requires farewells.
"I can help you reunite with your parents in your dreams."
The wronged spirit cried out, "Thank you."
Thankfully, I was still able to say goodbye to them.
Sending souls into dreams isn't a difficult spell; the difficulty lies in helping so many people. Fortunately, their parents are still here, so it's not that hard.
That night, more than a dozen beams of light shot out from Jiang Si's residence, and the souls of the dead followed the beams to meet their biological parents.
The next day, the victim's family members woke up with tears streaming down their faces, still immersed in the emotions of parting.
Looking at their partners, they asked in unison, "Did you see it?"
Upon hearing this question, everyone understood and they hugged each other and cried again.
They don't believe in ghosts and gods, but at this moment they desperately wish there were ghosts and gods in the world.
To help the victims, they created a group chat.
One parent in the group said that they dreamed about their daughter yesterday. In the dream, their daughter said goodbye to them and told them to take good care of themselves and that they could reunite in the next life.
Others chimed in, "I dreamt about it too. She told me that she was a very kind young lady who helped them and said she would help her be reborn into a better family."
“My daughter said she wanted to thank her, otherwise she might still be trapped.”
"She said her name was something like Zombie?"
“A zombie? No, it’s Jiang Si!” One of the parents was younger and had heard of Jiang Si.
"That's the woman who caught the murderer during the live stream!"
The chatter in the group was full of similar comments.
At that moment, they realized it wasn't fake; it was real—their daughter had returned to say goodbye.
Many of them were overwhelmed by the regret and pain in their hearts, but now, their daughter says they will live a good life from now on.
Hearing that a famous female celebrity had helped them seemed to connect them with their deceased daughter.
Jiang Si must be a very capable person to be able to let them see their daughter who has been dead for so long.
