The next day, Grandma Su went home and didn't stay overnight; she returned home that same day.
When I got back, I told them about my family's reaction.
Not to mention the joy and excitement, Su Miao, the person involved, was so excited that she was dumbfounded. After it was confirmed, she jumped three times high and went crazy with joy.
Fortunately, she knew this was a rare opportunity and was determined to practice her Mandarin even if it meant not sleeping!
Su He was speechless. "...No need for that. You still need to take good care of your voice."
Grandma Su nodded calmly, "Don't worry, Grandma has already told her off. The batteries you brought for her will last her a while, and I doubt she'll use them."
I've asked my family to keep an eye on her. She needs to study at home for a while, so she doesn't fail her exams. Otherwise, it would be a waste of the opportunity her in-laws gave her to find a partner. She knows what's important.
Su He was relieved to hear this. Su Miao was not young anymore, and she was sensible and insightful even when she was young. She should know what she wanted, so he believed that she would know what to do.
Once Su Miao's arrangements were made, Su He felt relieved.
Recently, a new case came into the bureau, and she has been busy.
The person who reported this case was a fellow villager from the suburbs. On his way home, he passed by a culvert and saw what appeared to be a woman lying inside.
The villager went over and called out a few times but received no response, so he reached out to test the other person and found that they were already dead.
The villager was so frightened that he immediately went to the nearby police station to report the case.
Upon learning of the incident, the police quickly arrived at the scene and discovered that it was a female corpse, around thirty years old, with a strong physique, resembling a rural woman who regularly engaged in manual labor. She was neatly dressed, and there were no injuries on any part of the body. There were also no signs of a struggle, suggesting that she had drowned.
Strangely, the water level in the culvert only reached knee-high at most, so there was no reason for someone to drown.
The deceased was physically strong, and it would have been difficult to kill her without a fight.
However, no other clues have been found so far, so no conclusions can be drawn.
So the police began to conduct interviews in the surrounding area, hoping to identify the deceased.
Strangely, after several days of investigation, no missing persons were found in the vicinity matching the description.
The police suspected that the person was likely from out of town, so they also investigated the nearby guesthouses.
This time, we finally have a clue.
According to a nearby guesthouse, a woman named Zhang Lian, from Henan Province, did come to the guesthouse a few days ago. She said she was going to Kazakhstan in Northeast China to find relatives, but she couldn't buy a direct train ticket, so she came to Beijing to transfer.
But after arriving, it seemed that he met an acquaintance, so he didn't leave immediately but stayed for a few more days.
She had met that acquaintance before; she had even come to see Zhang Lian, and was also a woman in her thirties.
The police became suspicious after hearing this.
He hurriedly showed the guesthouse staff a photo of the deceased, who immediately recognized her as Zhang Lian.
Furthermore, the staff at the guesthouse provided the police with a lead.
The last time she saw Zhang Lian was when an acquaintance came to visit her. The two left together. Later, on her way home from get off work, she saw Zhang Lian's acquaintance on the street, but didn't see Zhang Lian herself, assuming she had already taken the train.
I was angry at the time, since she hadn't even come to check out.
The police immediately sensed something was wrong and began investigating Zhang Lian's acquaintance.
However, because the name was unknown, the investigation was quite difficult, but fortunately, it was eventually found.
