Chapter 229: Justice, Though Delayed, Arrives! (1/2)



Even now, Yue Qianlan still harbors deep resentment towards her trip to the Maldives a year ago.

Let alone going to the Maldives a second time.

Even just hearing those four words filled Yue Qianlan with terror.

Hearing Yue Qianlan's words, Jiang Ning was also shocked!

"Good heavens, March! How come I've never heard you mention this before? Was there a problem with the yacht?"

“It wasn’t a problem with the yacht, it was the captain’s fault,” Yue Qianlan continued. “After further investigation, it seems that the captain was going through a divorce with his wife at the time, and he was emotional, which caused the yacht to capsize.”

"This captain is so irresponsible, he should be sentenced to life imprisonment!" Jiang Ning's voice came again. "However, those who survive a great calamity are bound to have good fortune in the future. In March, you will definitely have a safe and smooth life from now on, and always walk on a flowery path."

Yue Qianlan nodded, "That's right, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. It's just that God arranged for me to meet you later!"

In Yue Qianlan's heart, Jiang Ning is not only her best friend, but also a benefactor in her life.

It was Jiang Ning's appearance that changed the trajectory of her life.

Jiang Ning then asked, "Besides this incident, did you encounter anything else in the Maldives in March?"

Other things?

Yue Qianlan shook her head. "It seems there aren't any left."

there is none left?

Jiang Ning frowned slightly. Had she guessed wrong?

Is Yue Qianlan unrelated to the woman in red in the aerial photo?

“Oh right, Ningning,” Yue Qianlan seemed to remember something at this moment and continued, “After I fell into the sea, I met a second unlucky guy.”

"The second unlucky one?" Jiang Ning raised an eyebrow slightly. "What happened this time?"

Yue Qianlan lay down on the sofa, picked up some potato chips, and ate them while saying, "Because I can swim, and there was driftwood all around, and the yacht wasn't too far from the shore, I wasn't too nervous when I fell into the sea. Just as I was holding onto the driftwood and swimming towards the shore, I suddenly saw a man in a snorkeling suit floating in front of me. He wasn't moving at the time, and I thought he was dead. Since we Chinese believe in burial for peace, I brought him to the shore with me."

"Because I swam in the sea for several hours, I passed out from exhaustion after swimming to the shore. By the time my parents found me, the man was gone."

"It's as if it vanished into thin air."

“My parents both said that bringing him to the shore was my hallucination, but I swear it wasn’t a hallucination at all, because a second before I lost consciousness after we got ashore, I saw him move.”

Diving.

Male.

It stopped moving!

These keywords all fit Si Xuxia at that time.

Si Xuxia lost consciousness because of a sudden leg cramp.

Jiang Ning suppressed her excitement and asked, "March, do you still remember what he looked like?"

Yue Qianlan shook her head. "He was wearing swimming goggles and a ventilator, so I couldn't see what he looked like at all. I originally wanted to open the goggles and ventilator to take a look, but at the time I thought he was dead. He's already dead, so there's nothing to see! I didn't want to scare myself."

When she returned to the shore and found that the man was still alive, she herself had fainted.

Therefore, from beginning to end, Yue Qianlan never saw what that person actually looked like!

Jiang Ning then asked, "March, do you remember what the date was?"

“I remember,” Yue Qianlan said, perhaps finding the potato chips too dry, and opened a bottle of cola. “Of course I wouldn’t forget such an important event. That day was July 18th.”

7.18!

Now even the timing matches up.

Were you wearing a red dress at the time?

"Yes, yes, that's my favorite red dress, and it's a limited edition! It's a pity it's unwearable after being soaked in seawater," Yue Qianlan asked excitedly. "Ningning, how did you know? You're amazing! You even know what color dress I wear!"

"I'll tell you later," Jiang Ning said, picking up her glass and taking a sip of water. "By the way, do you have any photos from back then, March?"

"Yes, I took a lot of pictures on the yacht at the time."

Could you send me a picture to take a look?

"sure!"

Yue Qianlan was completely open with Jiang Ning.

A few minutes later, Yue Qianlan sent her several photos she had taken on the yacht.

Blue sky and white clouds, plus a beautiful girl in a red dress.

It's very beautiful.

The moment Jiang Ning saw the photo, she was pretty sure that Yue Qianlan was Si Xuxia's savior.

But to be on the safe side, Jiang Ning didn't reveal this, but instead asked, "March, when you were rescuing this person, did you find a gold lock?"

"Yes, I have!"

After Yue Qianlan finished speaking, she realized something was wrong and asked in surprise, "Ningning, how do you know about Jin Suo?"

Aside from her family, Yue Qianlan didn't tell anyone else about Jin Suo.

"I'll explain this to you later. March, can you tell me how you found the gold lock?"

Although Yue Qianlan was also curious about how Jiang Ning knew about the gold lock, she didn't ask any more questions since Jiang Ning had already said so. She continued, "Actually, I didn't find the gold lock. When I was pulling him ashore, I accidentally broke the gold lock around his neck. I originally planned to put it back on him after we got to the shore, but then I passed out and didn't return it."

"To be honest, if the golden lock hadn't been there, I would have even suspected that I was hallucinating and that I had never actually met that person in the sea."

"I wonder where that person went in the end!"

"Why did he leave without even saying goodbye? I at least brought him up from the sea; I'm his savior."

Yue Qianlan was very depressed.

“Perhaps he has other reasons,” Jiang Ning said, looking at Yue Qianlan. “By the way, in March, wasn’t the character ‘Xia’ engraved on that gold lock?”

“Yes, yes!” Yue Qianlan immediately stood up from the sofa, picked up the gold lock from the jewelry, and said, “It not only has the character ‘Xia’ engraved on it, but also a date! Look, it’s November 14th, that should be his birth date!”
