Chen Xiao walked alone in the depths of Leigong Mountain at night.
This was the second time Chen Xiao did such a thing by himself.
The first time was during the Swallow Lane Fishbone Case, when he went to find the grave of Li Ruomei, the mother of the sisters Su Jing and Su Ting—two of the killers.
Now, he wasn't here to find a grave, although there indeed was a false tomb there.
But as to what he was actually looking for, Chen Xiao himself couldn't quite say.
He only knew there was a voice inside urging him to do this.
Following the route described by Pan Huiping, and also tracing the marks the police had left on the ground, Chen Xiao proceeded forward.
Although he searched for a while, Chen Xiao still found the tree.
A police line was drawn around the tree.
The line was actually just procedural.
Chen Xiao crossed the police line and stood under the tree, looking up.
The two branches pressed together were the ones supporting Qiu Tingfang's body.
