Rebirth 78, the beginning of the marriage was broken off by the female educated youth

"Counselor Li, how is he?"

As soon as Li Xiangnan came out, the people waiting in the corridor came to greet him. Wei Dongliang, the leader, asked anxiously, "Is he okay?"

"Although his body is injured, he is in good condition after recuperating for the past ten days!" Li Xiangnan told the truth, but did not elaborate on the conversation between him and Shen Yujing just now.

Everyone who heard this breathed a sigh of relief.

Now Shen Yujing has been rescued from the poisoning, and the murderer Hu Qiyi who poisoned him has been brought to justice. The task assigned by the superiors has basically been completed.

The only thing that is not perfect is that the mastermind behind the hiring of a killer still needs to be tracked down.

"Master Lan, I want to go see Hu Qiyi. I have something to ask him!"

Just now, Shen Yujing had an unusual change of emotions towards the three words "Baihezhou". Li Xiangnan guessed that there must be some story behind this place.

He had doubts in his mind and didn't want to delay for too long.

"Okay..." Lan Tiangui, as the acting warden, nodded without hesitation.

But Li Xiangnan's arm was grabbed by Wei Dongliang.

"Advisor Li, you haven't slept in 24 hours since you woke up yesterday morning! Interrogation is extremely exhausting, and the average person can't handle it physically! Now that both the murderer and Shen Yujing have been located, you should take a break!"

After Wei Dongliang's reminder, the people around him immediately came to their senses and hurried to persuade Li Xiangnan.

"Yes, Director Wei is right, Advisor Li. The rest of us haven't had much trouble, but you've been working really hard! This whole day and night has been exhausting, both mentally and physically, and you've been the one who's taken the most strain!"

"Yes, Brother Nan, go to bed quickly! We can help you with anything!"

"Advisor Li, leave it to me. I'm the captain. Do you have any other questions?"

Everyone had already anticipated that Li Xiangnan might have obtained some clues when he went in to talk with Shen Yujing just now.

But now, the dust has mostly settled, and you have to take care of your health. Most people would find it a bit too much to handle, let alone Li Xiangnan, the presiding judge.

"Director Wei, everyone, I just had a brief conversation with Shen Yujing, and I do have some clues about the person behind this! With this information, I can't eat or sleep! Don't worry, I'll go meet with Hu Qi and then I'll go get some rest!"

Everyone looked at each other, seeing that he had made up his mind and it was difficult to refuse.

"Alright, go ahead. I'll make you something to calm your nerves and nourish your brain. You can drink some when you get back! Look at you, you should take care of your health. Once you get worked up, you'll risk your life!"

In the end, it was Lu Dingkun, an old Chinese medicine doctor whose words carried great weight, who stood up and said something.

After hearing this, Wei Dongliang had no choice but to let Li Xiangnan follow Lan Tiangui to the prison area. The others quickly returned to their respective posts and sorted out the files.

Hu Qiyi is a highly intelligent murderer. Although Shen Yujing did not die, his crime was not light at all, and he was directly imprisoned in a high-level prison area and a solitary cell.

It’s almost the same level as Shen Yujing.

When Li Xiangnan arrived at the cell, Hu Qi, with a bandage on his head, was leaning against the wall, looking at the high air vent, wondering what he was thinking.

He walked in and sat down against the bed without looking back at her. Li Xiangnan lit a cigarette and handed it to her. Hu Qiyi slowly turned around and took the cigarette to smoke.

"Where is Baihezhou? How do I get there?"

A faint smoke was rising in the cell, just like the overwhelming poisonous gas that filled Shen Yujing's cell that day.

Perhaps because he felt the same way, Hu Qiyi didn't resist this time. He just whispered, "Go along the Chaobai River to Hanshi Bridge. I only know it's called Yanbo Island, but that person said this is called Baihezhou!"

"Thank you!"

After finishing a cigarette with him, Li Xiangnan said nothing more and turned to leave the cell.

Ten minutes later, he, Song Zimo and Wang Defa arrived at the prison gate.

Wei Dongliang hurriedly chased after him.

"Advisor Li, you're going out? You're not keeping your word. If you don't sleep, something bad will happen! I'm really worried that your body won't be able to handle it!"

Knowing that he cared deeply about him, Li Xiangnan shook his hand and thanked him, "Director Wei, I can't help it. Something's on my mind and I can't sleep! Wait for me to come back, and we'll have the next step in our investigation!"

"But..." Guo Qian, who came here together, wanted to curse.

Wei Dongliang stopped him, sighed, and waved his hand, saying, "Alright, I've learned a thing or two about your temper! I'll wait for you to come back! Captain Guo and the others are in prison, don't worry!"

"Yes, I will ensure that I complete the leader's task!"

"You kid!"

The three of them got in the car and drove quickly towards Hanshi Bridge.

……

When Li Xiangnan woke up, the sky was dark and there was silence all around, with only two sparks flashing outside the car.

"I also want to go to Lijia Village during the Spring Festival this year. Fatty, please talk to Brother Nan and ask him to take me with you!"

"It's just a matter of one sentence!"

Suddenly, this sentence popped up in the idle chat outside. Li Xiangnan rolled his eyes in the car, opened the door, and said faintly: "Damn it, you didn't know to call me! What time is it!"

The two were startled and turned around to see Li Xiangnan yawning as he got out of the car. Song Zimo said with a wry smile, "Brother Nan, you looked so soundly asleep in the car, I didn't have the heart to wake you up!"

Wang Defa handed over a cigarette and said, "We checked the place for you. There's no bird or anything. It's just a reed marsh!"

As he spoke, he turned on the flashlight.

Li Xiangnan immediately saw the surrounding scene.

Beneath the starry sky and the vast wilderness, the ruins of a long-abandoned ferry were revealed, with reeds growing and wild birds nesting. It was so desolate that it was not even marked on the map.

A stone tablet with half of its head collapsed was stuck diagonally in the ground, and the three big words "Yanbo Island" could be vaguely seen on it.

This is clearly an uninhabited ferry crossing. If the three of them had not come here to investigate a case, they might never have come here in their entire lives.

What do Yanbo Island and Baihezhou mean to Shen Yujing?

Looking at the deep and quiet reed marshes and the floating and sinking wetlands, an inexplicable melancholy welled up in my heart.

Li Xiangnan frowned, and the doubts in his heart were stronger than before.

"go back!"

"Hey?"

Seeing that he got into the car after just one look, Wang Defa and Song Zimo were dumbfounded, but they still jumped into the car in a hurry, started the engine and rushed to the prison.

Still in the isolation ward.

"Shen Yujing, I went to Baihezhou. There is an ancient ferry there..."

When Li Xiangnan came in, he saw him staring at the ceiling in a daze, so he spoke directly.

Shen Yujing turned her head slowly and with great difficulty, no longer looking at the pale ceiling, but instead cast her gaze on the quiet figure beside the bed - Li Xiangnan.

The surging hatred in that gaze had long been replaced by a stagnant grayness, leaving only endless fatigue and a trace of...almost pleading despair.

“…Don’t…check…”

Shen Yujing's voice was as hoarse as a broken gong. Every word he spoke drained away his remaining vitality, yet he spoke with an unquestionable determination. "Let's...stop...here!"

"???"
