"Aunt, do you know the specifics of what's happening?"
Gu Xiaoqing asked further.
Logically, how could a murder investigation lead to Fang Shaohan being isolated for examination?
"It's strange, really. Shaohan had that criminal brought to justice, the confession was even signed. But then suddenly over the last couple of days, someone else came forward claiming they committed the crime."
He Cui was also puzzled, wondering why anyone would rush to such trouble.
"Oh, I understand. Can I see Shaohan?"
Gu Xiaoqing inquired.
"That's a bit difficult. The higher-ups are inspecting now, and the inspection team is very focused on this case, so I'm afraid... Xiaoqing, don't get involved in this matter. Things aren't peaceful these days; getting involved won't bring you any good."
He Cui actively advised against it; although she didn't understand the intricacies, she'd accompanied her husband for many years.
