Chapter 370: Chapter 370: Unlivable_1 Chapter 370: Chapter 370: Unlivable_1 “Sister!”

Zhuanzhuan hurriedly looked at Nan Fei, her voice shaking uncontrollably.

Ying Jiuming and Officer Liu exchanged understanding glances.

“Go on! I believe you’re a good kid, if you know something, say it, if you don’t, that’s totally fine.” Nan Fei encouraged her, “Don’t be afraid, your sister will always support you.”

“Yes!” Zhuanzhuan nodded heavily, fearlessly looking at Officer Liu, “I know where Sun Lu is!”

“You know?” The surprise in Officer Liu’s eyes could no longer be hidden.

She had been observing everyone on the scene, trying to find clues from everyone’s subtle expressions, instead of rubbernecking at Jiang Minmin and her mother hurling curses at each other like everyone else.

But after a long observation, she found nothing. Unaware that an eyewitness was standing amongst the crowd, calmly observing everything.

For some reason, she suddenly found herself breaking out in goosebumps, a cold sweat breaking out on her back.

Upon closer observation, the two young girls in front of her were still so calm, so indifferent.

They didn’t seem like high school students at all.

Were they adults?

How did they manage it?

Especially the younger one, whose features were so forgettable at first glance.

And how did Jiang Nanfei find out?

“Where is Sun Lu?” someone asked anxiously.

“She’s in the reservoir behind the village!” Zhuanzhuan’s expression was serious, yet her tone was casual, as if she was discussing what to eat for dinner.

“Girl, how could a person be in the reservoir?” someone said with a laugh.

“Can your village’s reservoir accommodate people?”

“No, it can’t. That’s why she…” Zhuanzhuan’s clear eyes flickered, sending shivers down the spine.

For some reason, despite it barely being dusk, everyone broke out in cold sweat.

“Go! Retrieve the body!” Upon Ying Jiuming’s command, the police swiftly got into action.

Xiao Wang Village is perfectly located on a north-south rural road. The road cut through the village, dividing it into the east and west. At the very west of the village lays Qi Li River, where everyone liked to wash their clothes and vegetables.

Qi Li River is quite renowned locally, passing through dozens of villages, from Qi Li Town all the way to Ba Li Town.

In addition to Qi Li River, there’s also a reservoir in the crop field behind the village. It was dug decades ago by the production team for irrigation during drought seasons.

By the time the sky had fallen completely dark, Nan Fei didn’t want her grandparents to worry, so she asked them to take Jiang Yang home. She accompanied Zhuanzhuan, standing on the reservoir’s embankment with the police.

Jiang Dechun, worried about his daughters, also followed them with a lantern in his hands. However, a police line had been drawn around the reservoir preventing him from entering, so he anxiously stood with other villagers arriving from behind, peeping inside.

“Sis.” As a breeze blew, Zhuanzhuan shivered and whispered into Nan Fei’s ear: “I’m scared.”

“Don’t be scared!” Nan Fei wrapped her arm around Zhuanzhuan’s shoulder, trying to shield her from the wind with her own body.

“Do you think Aunt will hate us? Would grandma blame us?”

Earlier, Zhuanzhuan had already explained in front of the police how their Aunt had met a crying Sun Lu by the reservoir, had an argument, and how she fell into the reservoir.

Liu Yongxia has been arrested.

Jiang Minmin has been temporarily detained.
