At two o 'clock in the afternoon, at the Jingjiang Ancient Temple.
Cui Lizhu held a stick of Granny Ice Cream in her hand and said awkwardly, "The entrance ticket costs ten yuan. How good can this scenic spot be?"
"The real Jingjiang Ancient Temple was submerged in the flood a hundred years ago," Zeng Ke said. "This one was built later!"
"Which year was it built?" Cui Lizhu asked curiously.
"It was built in 1994," Zeng Ke said, looking at the information on his mobile phone. "At that time, Su Ruohua had been frozen for eight years. So, it must have nothing to do with this place, right?"
"94 years? What kind of thousand-year-old temple is this?" Cui Lizhu was shocked. "It's a lie!"
"Not exactly," Zeng Ke explained. "The Jingjiang Ancient Temple on the original site was built more than 1,400 years ago. It's a very famous ancient temple in the entire Nanyun Province!
But, it was destroyed by a natural disaster, so there's nothing we can do about it! " Zeng Ke said. "Like the Yellow Crane Tower, Leifeng Pagoda, and some other well-known buildings, they were all rebuilt later …
"So," Zeng Ke said, pointing to the ancient temple behind him. "This ancient temple also has a deep meaning. You can't say that it's a lie …"
At that moment, everyone had walked out of the ancient temple and arrived at the parking lot at the entrance of the scenic spot.
As Ran Tao and Guo Fengzhan had gone to the bathroom, everyone was waiting in the parking lot.
At that moment, Xi Mengna was in front of a souvenir shop, while Zhao Yu, Cui Lizhu, and the others were still discussing the case.
"Boss," Cui Lizhu said, "I wanted to remind you before! The forensic doctors said that Su Ruohua drifted here from the river. That's for sure. So, what does it have to do with the Jingjiang Ancient Temple? "
"Do you think that someone kept Su Ruohua frozen in the Jingjiang Ancient Temple, then dumped her body at the edge of the ancient temple to divert attention?
"That doesn't make sense at all!"
"Actually …" Zhao Yu said seriously, "The reason why I said that before was that I wanted to visit this scenic spot. Let's think about it from another perspective!
"I didn't say that the case must have something to do with this ancient temple!"
"Pfft, you're right anyway," Cui Lizhu said with disdain. "You wouldn't have said that if you had found a clue!"
"Zhao," Medical Examiner Gao said, "we've invited professional hydrologists to conduct a simulation test and found that there's an inconspicuous whirlpool at the ancient temple. After the drifting objects on the river pass through this whirlpool, they often flow back.
"Previously, we also noticed that at the place where the corpse was found, there was a lot of debris from the river, such as branches, leaves, and white trash.
"So, it's not a coincidence that the corpse floated ashore from here!"
"Oh …" Zhao Yu nodded slightly, then pointed somewhere along the river. "The body was found there, right? Later, let's go and take a look … "
"Now that Teacher Gao mentioned it," Zeng Ke quickly said, "I also remember that the sanitation worker who found the body was on his way to clean up the garbage by the river!
"He said that garbage often floats ashore, and they have to send people to clean it up almost every day …"
"Oh …" Zhao Yu nodded again. Zeng Ke's words confirmed that the female corpse had nothing to do with the ancient temple.
At that moment, there was a sudden quarrel at the door of a shop in the distance.
"Who do you think you are? I said I don't want to add you … "Xi Mengna said to a woman in a Tang suit." Don't bother me, or I'll sue you for harassment! "
"What?" Cui's eyes widened. "Who did Little Nana offend? Oh, no, who offended our Little Nana? "
Seeing that Xi Mengna was arguing with someone, Zhao Yu didn't care too much. After all, Xi Mengna wasn't a pushover.
"A beautiful woman is a gentleman's desire!" At that time, the man in the Tang suit was still asking for her WeChat number. "Let me add you! I'm not a bad person. Can't we be friends? "
"Get lost!" Xi Mengna said, pointing a finger at him. "I don't need a friend like you!"
"Wow!" The man exclaimed. "You're speaking in Mandarin. Are you a foreigner? Could it be? Heh heh heh, then we can communicate. I often go abroad. Which country are you from? "
"Humph! Shameless! "Xi Mengna ignored him, took her bag, and turned to leave the shop.
"Hey hey hey?" In the end, the man in the Tang suit chased after her and took out a car remote control. "Beauty, beauty, don't be so hot-tempered!
"Come, take a look. Look at my car. It's hot!"
As he spoke, he pressed the remote control. A convertible BMW parked in front of the shop made two beeps.
"What? Do you think I can add you on WeChat just because you got a car? "Xi Mengna didn't even look at it, but turned to leave.
"Hey? Don't? You don't believe me, do you? " The man in the Tang suit quickly opened the door and got in. Then, he started the car and drove directly in front of Xi Mengna. "Beauty, I've never seen anyone as beautiful as you!
"Come on, let's go for a ride. I'm sure you'll be satisfied …"
"Boss …" Cui Lizhu couldn't help but whisper to Zhao Yu, "I feel like Little Nana is about to explode. Shouldn't you be the hero to save her?
"Otherwise, if Little Nana destroys the car, you'll be the one to pay for it …"
"Don't worry, don't worry," Zhao Yu said. "I bet two hundred dollars that Little Nana won't do anything!"
"Pfft!" Cui Lizhu squinted her eyes. "I bet two hundred dollars that she'll definitely do something!"
"I …" Zeng Ke raised his hand. "I don't want to bet!"
"You guys …" Dr. Gao grinned. "Alright, do whatever you want!"
Woo …
As he spoke, the man in the Tang suit once again challenged Xi Mengna's bottom line. Once again, he parked the car in front of Xi Mengna, blocking her way.
Xi Mengna frowned, then looked at Zhao Yu.
In the end, she realized that Zhao Yu had no intention of helping, so she could only wave her fist at Zhao Yu angrily.
"Hit, hit …" Cui Lizhu muttered softly.
"Come on, beauty, I beg you!" The man in the Tang suit said shamelessly. "Give me a chance, and I'll give you a chance too!"
"Mm … Okay!" Xi Mengna let out a long breath and opened the car door.
"That's great, that's great …" The man was ecstatic.
However, his ecstasy only lasted for two seconds. He was shocked to see Xi Mengna suddenly pull the car door outwards. The car door actually made a cracking sound.
Then, Xi Mengna lifted her long legs and kicked the car door, breaking it into pieces!
Crack! Half of the car door fell to the ground. It was a heart-wrenching sight.
"Huh?!" The man in the Tang suit was shocked and angry. "You … Why … Why are you so strong?"
Xi Mengna looked at him coldly, then stepped into the BMW with her long legs. She stepped on the seat and walked straight forward. She stood proudly and elegantly. After a few steps, she landed lightly on the ground from the other side of the BMW.
Wow …
Everyone was dumbfounded!
"Hey! Don't go, don't go! " The man in the Tang suit finally panicked. He pointed at Xi Mengna and shouted, "You damaged my car, you can't go!"
"Do you see that person?" Xi Mengna pointed at Zhao Yu. "That's my husband. Go ask him for money! He'll definitely give it to you! "
"Huh?" The man in the Tang suit looked at Zhao Yu and immediately stepped on the gas pedal. He was about to drive towards Zhao Yu.
However, at this moment, with a loud crash, a huge truck suddenly rushed into the parking lot out of control, and went straight for Xi Mengna!!!
