Chapter 261 Cemetery? A visit? So young? And the voice?
Nan Shu was taken aback.

Looking up, she met Nan Punian's all-seeing dark eyes, pursed her lips, and nodded slightly.

"Ah."

In fact, Nan Shu had already been a little distracted when He Meili mentioned the name 'Nan Jishan'.

In her previous life, Nan Shu was an orphan. In this life, she has never met Nan Jishan and his wife.

Nan Shu even wondered if she had a weak family bond, which was why she didn't have much of a connection with her parents.

She didn't actually have too many regrets, since she had never experienced anything like it before.

To Nan Shu, Nan Jishan and his wife were just strangers with similar blood ties to this body, but the sudden mention of them still stirred up some ripples in her heart.

"Shall we go see them?"

Nan Punian thought for a moment and then asked.

Nan Shu was taken aback.

"As far as I know, Nan Jishan and his wife were buried together in Qingshan Cemetery."

Nan Punian looked at the little girl and said, "I'll go with you."

Nan Shu gently stroked the inside of the cup with her fingertips.

After a moment of contemplation, he shook his head.

"Team Leader Nan, I can go by myself."

Although she didn't know why she was going, Nan Shu didn't reject Nan Punian's suggestion.

Nan Punian carefully observed Nan Shu's expression. Seeing that her complexion was normal, he did not interfere further and nodded, "Okay, call me if you need anything."

"Ah."

Nan Shu is the type of person who, once she makes a decision, will immediately do it. Since there wasn't much going on at the branch, she took a taxi to Qingshan Cemetery after leaving Nan Punian's office.

The cemetery is located on a mountain near a village. The security guard's house is built at the foot of the mountain. The guard is an old man who looks to be about fifty or sixty years old. The management is not strict. After Nan Shu registered and told her the location of the tombstone, he let her in.

On a weekday, and not on a memorial day like tomb sweeping, the cemetery, which stretched as far as the eye could see, seemed to have no one else besides Nan Shu and the security guard.

Climb the steps.

It was very quiet all around, and Nan Shu could even clearly hear her own heartbeat quickening as she climbed the stairs.

Nan Shu noticed that there were actually other paths inside the cemetery, and there were no fences at the foot of the mountain. In other words, people who frequently come to sweep the tombs can enter the cemetery directly without going through security personnel.

The tombstone of Nan Jishan and his wife is located halfway up the mountain.

The photos used on the tombstone should be from when the two were around thirty years old, when they were relatively young. Nan Jishan had regular features and a handsome face, while Du Lijuan had delicate features and a standard oval face, which is what the elderly often say is a very lucky appearance.

The monument was covered with a thick layer of dust, indicating that it had not been cleaned or visited for a long time.

It stood in stark contrast to the spotless tombstone beside it, which looked like a newly built grave.

"Ning An?"

Nan Shu's gaze fell on the tombstone beside her. In the black and white photo, the girl looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old, with a ponytail, smiling brightly at the camera, radiating youthful energy.

Her gaze slowly moved downwards, and when she saw the girl's birth date, Nan Shu couldn't help but be stunned.

"So young?"

If this girl named Ning An were still alive, she would be seven years older than Nan Shu. Unfortunately, she passed away ten years ago at the age of eighteen.

Even though Nan Shu had witnessed a lot of death, she couldn't help but feel a moment of regret when she saw how young the girl had been when she passed away.

Our gaze returns to the graves of Nan Jishan and his wife.

Nan Shu stared at the tombstone for a while, put the bouquet of chrysanthemums she had brought aside, turned around, borrowed a rag and a bucket from the security guard, wiped the tombstone clean, and swept away the fallen leaves around it.

After doing all that, I worked up a sweat, and my mood improved considerably.

"I'm still very grateful, no matter what."

Nan Shu squatted down, looked at the two photos, and said softly.

At least.

In this world, Nan Shu has a career she has worked hard for, and a group of very good friends.

Nan Shu carried a bucket and a mop, slowly walking down the mountain. Suddenly—

A faint buzzing sound, like the vibration of wings, rang out.

Accompanying.

There were also humming and moaning sounds made because they were very satisfied.

"Hurry up and call Little One, Little Two, Little Three... come and eat! It'll get cold if you don't eat now!"

"Go away, I haven't had enough to eat yet."

“I’m not going. Let the third one go. It was the first to find out, and it had already eaten quite a bit by the time it arrived.”

Nan Shu paused in her steps.

Look around.

The surroundings were quiet, and there was no one in sight. The sound was coming from the woods on the other side of the road.

The area to the south of the cemetery is a cemetery area, while the area to the north is not yet fully developed and is covered with trees that almost block out the sky. Even during the day, the shadows of the trees are heavy as far as the eye can see.

Based on her previous experiences, Nan Shu could basically conclude that the voice was definitely not from a human.

After all, no family is so prosperous that they can count from one to ninety-nine or more from a young age.

Nan Shu put down the bucket, gripped the mop tightly, and walked towards the direction of the sound.

As she got closer, Nan Shu finally saw the appearance of the person who spoke from behind a large tree.

It has a body about two finger joints long, brownish-yellow wings, and crisscrossing yellow and black stripes at the end of its tail. It's a wasp!
Nan Shu couldn't help but gasp inwardly.

Since starting the case, most of the animals she has encountered have been quite friendly. This is the first time Nan Shu has come into contact with an animal like a wasp, which is harmful to humans.

Nan Shu was naturally not going to be foolish enough to go up and greet them.

after all.

Unlike bees, wasps' stings are only for one use. They can sting without limit and inject venom at the same time. Two or three wasps are enough to kill an adult.

Fortunately, the wasps were currently focused on the contents of the red plastic bag on the ground and did not notice Nan Shu's presence.

Nan Shu looked at the plastic bags, piled together, three bags in total. She couldn't quite make out what they looked like, but thinking about the conversation between the wasps, she suddenly had a bad feeling.

Wasps, however, do eat meat.

Nan Shu thought for a moment, then quietly withdrew to an open space, took out her phone and called Nan Punian.

Tell him to call the fire department to come along as well.

The presence of wasps suggests there is a hornet's nest nearby, and judging from the conversation, it must be quite large.

After hearing Nan Shu's guess, Nan Punian did not hesitate.

"Okay, we're coming right away. Xiaoshu, be careful to avoid them."

"Uh-huh."

Nan Shu wasn't sure when the plastic bag had been thrown there, and she was afraid someone might come and take it, so she found a perfect vantage point to keep watch and waited for the main group to arrive.

The cemetery was located in a remote area, and it took about forty minutes for Nan Punian and his group to arrive, followed by He Ji, who was dressed in full protective gear and wrapped up tightly.

The once quiet and peaceful cemetery suddenly became incredibly lively.

He Ji and another fully armed firefighter drove the wasps away and successfully tagged one of them, intending to follow it to the hive.

The whole process was carried out in an orderly manner.

really.

"Professional matters should be left to professionals," Nan Shu thought.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Yunli and Brother Wang stepped forward with their investigation kits.

Several beams of flashlight converged, and Xu Yunli opened the bag.

Only then could everyone see clearly what was inside.
