1242 Mountain-Climbing Summer Camp
“Are you alright?” Jiang Yu quickly held the woman. “This is a fact that can’t be avoided, so we can only ask you to restrain your grief. Also, the person whose head exploded wasn’t your daughter Qiao Yun!”
“What?” The woman grabbed Jiang Yu’s hand tightly as if she had found a life-saving straw and refused to let go. “What did you just say? You’re saying that she’s not my daughter?”
“It’s a long story. Please get up first, I’ll tell you slowly.” Jiang Yu helped the woman up and walked all the way to the sofa.
A group of people stood around them, their eyes red from crying. Jiang Yu could not be sure if they were truly crying for Qiao Yun, so she only planned to tell Qiao Yun’s mother about this.
“Aunty, you’re the only one I can tell you about this,” she said. “Please take me to a place with no one around.”
“Good, good.” The woman quickly brought Jiang Yu to Qiao Yun’s room.
In order to investigate the situation, Chang Kai also followed.
When they entered the room, the woman couldn’t wait to ask, “You said that she’s not my daughter. What do you mean?”
Jiang Yu and Chang Kai looked at each other and told the woman about the human-producing experiment.
“Human-producing experiments?” This was the first time the woman had heard of this term. “In other words, the one who exploded was just a test subject and not the real Qiao Yun? Then where did my daughter go?”
“It’s hard to say for sure.” Jiang Yu frowned. “So, we want to know everything about Qiao Yun from you. For example, did anything unusual happen to her?”
The woman thought for a long time before she said, “now that you mention it, I remember. A year ago, Yunyun had signed up for a mountain climbing summer camp. When she came back, she was different from before. However, the change wasn’t that big, so I didn’t take it to heart. Besides, Yunyun didn’t change much in the past year.”
“Can you elaborate?” Chang Kai asked.
The woman tried to recall and said, “it’s something I usually like to eat. I stopped eating it after I came back from the summer camp. Also, she had stopped liking the style of the clothes she liked ever since she came back. But these changes aren’t that big of a deal, are they?”
“It’s a big problem.” Jiang Yu muttered, “it seems like Qiao Yun was already an experiment a year ago.”
“What do you mean?” The woman looked worried. “Since you said that the one who exploded wasn’t my daughter, where is my daughter? Is she safe now?”
“Don’t get too excited. We will help you find Qiao Yun’s whereabouts.” Chang Kai consoled her, “do you still remember the name of the one-year summer camp? Or the name of the organizer?”
“I don’t remember, but I still have the flyers with me.” The woman said as she went back to her room to look for the Flyers from back then.
Not long after, she came in with an intact leaflet and said, “This is it. I’ve kept all the things that Yunyun doesn’t want.”
Jiang Yu and Chang Kai took out their mobile phones and took a few photos of the front and back of the flyer, then said, “Thank you. We’ll find Qiao Yun’s whereabouts as soon as possible. You don’t need to worry about her during this period of time.”
The woman was still worried and asked, “You guys aren’t lying to me, right?”
“Auntie, I’m a police officer,” Chang Kai said with a smile. “The police won’t lie.”
The woman was slightly relieved and let Jiang Yu and Chang Kai leave.
On the way back, Jiang Yu did some simple research on the Qiao family.
“Qiao Yun’s mother’s name is Qiao Rui. Her father married into the family, so she took her mother’s surname. However, her father passed away in a car accident a few years ago, so she’s now a child of a single-parent family.” Jiang Yu looked at the message on her phone. “Tthe young man today is the son of the Qiao family’s eldest son. His name is Qiao Shen and he’s Qiao Yun’s brother.”
“He doesn’t feel sad about Qiao Yun’s death.” Chang Kai sighed. “It seems like the Qiao family isn’t that peaceful either.”
“It’s all because of Qiao Yun’s portion of the inheritance.” Jiang Yu said coldly, “Qiao Yun is dead. Her share of the Qiao family’s assets will become a piece of fat meat that everyone wants. It’s just that some people are willing to show it, while others are willing to put on an act and act like they’re deeply in love.”
“The family’s internal struggle for property is really a drama that plays out every day.” Chang Kai could not help but feel sorry for them.
However, this was someone else’s family matter. As bystanders, they could not interfere.
