Chapter 112: Surrender
On the weekend, several of them drove over, and in addition to Chen Xin, there were also Yi Bai and his colleagues.
I don't know what they did on the mountain, but when they came down, Chen Xin saw that there were two or three people with inexplicable expressions on their faces.
Instead of going back with them, Chen Xin really planned to use this opportunity to find some ingredients in the mountains to add material to her blog.
Bamboo shoots are available all year round, but spring shoots and winter shoots are generally eaten, especially after the beginning of spring.
There are many bamboo forests on this mountain, and the locals like to dig up spring bamboo shoots and sell them to tourists. In addition to fresh spring shoots, locals are also good at making sour bamboo shoots as a way to increase the storage time of bamboo shoots.
The sour bamboo shoots made here are different from other places, and the pickled sour bamboo shoots have no other smell other than their own fragrance.
The chef at the hot spring lodge is very good at pickling sour bamboo shoots. In the learned. After Chen Xin was willing to write an article for him, the chef taught Cheng Xin how to pickle fresh bamboo shoots.
From digging bamboo shoots up the mountain, to carrying them back to break the bamboo shoot shell, and taking out the bamboo shoot meat inside, the whole process is not fake.
After that, the peeled bamboo shoots are rinsed with water, then boiled in clean water for five minutes, then removed and soaked in cool white to cool down. This removes the bitterness from the bamboo shoots. Finally, put the processed bamboo shoots into a clean vessel, add enough cold boiled water, seal the bottle and wait for it to ferment naturally.
Fermented sour bamboo shoots can be used to stir-fry vegetables directly, or they can be used to blanch hot pot. Chen Xin's favorite thing to eat is stewed sour bamboo shoots with soy sauce, with diced pork belly added to it, sprinkled with a little chopped green onion after stir-frying, and then covered with a bowl of white rice, not to mention how fragrant it is.
Seeing that Chen Xin took a photo and wrote the address of his villa on the blog, the proprietress was very happy, and specially asked the chef to show her hand and make a table of mountain treasures.
In addition to bamboo shoots, there are also a small number of bamboo sunflower and bamboo flowers on this mountain.
Needless to say, everyone knows the nutritional value of bamboo sunflower, but fewer people know about bamboo flowers.
Bamboo flower is also a fungus that has strong medicinal properties and has miraculous effects in the treatment of cough, rheumatism, and pain relief. Generally, bamboo flowers are picked and dried before and after Qingming Festival.
In a local lang on this side of the town, the family has the technology of concocting bamboo flowers handed down from their ancestors. Every year he makes some and sells them in his pharmacy. Chen Xin found Lang Zhong's pharmacy under the introduction of the waiter in the villa, bought some and went back to study it to see if it could be used with tea for daily drinking.
There are a lot of earthworks in the mountains, and the materials are all derived from nature, but they have a miraculous effect on the treatment and prevention of diseases. Chen Xin collected them all and prepared them for her next book.
After this blog about sour bamboo shoots was sent out, many readers left messages, and they took the opportunity to introduce the same food in their hometown. Especially the place where I like to eat snail noodles, the sour bamboo shoots there are different from here, so sour that they almost stink, but the locals say that if they don't stink, they are not good sour bamboo shoots, which is probably a typical local taste. There are not many outsiders who can fully accept the heavy taste of sour bamboo shoots over there.
After making a whole issue of delicacies about bamboo shoots, Chen Xin planned to leave the villa and go back to continue studying.
As a result, before she could leave, she saw a police car coming, bringing Tao Min and the deceased's father.
"What's going on?" Chen Xin didn't want to go out directly to watch, lying on the railing of the balcony on the second floor and asking the waiter downstairs to watch the excitement.
"I heard that the woman turned herself in, saying that after she quarreled with her boyfriend, she pushed him down the mountain and fell to her death. The waiter quickly spread the news of his inquiry.
When the body was found under the waterfall pool, many people knew about it. Later, the police also went up the mountain to inspect the scene several times, but found nothing else. The case was closed unexpectedly.
Suddenly, the woman didn't know what medicine she was taking, so she ran to the police station and turned herself in, saying that her boyfriend's death was because she was angry and pushed him in the back, so she fell down the mountain. Now the police are escorting her to identify the scene.
Chen Xin didn't understand how Yi Bai and them operated, so she actually asked Tao Min to go to the police station to turn himself in. There is no witness in this case, and if Tao Min does not let go, basically no one can confirm that the deceased's death is related to Tao Min.
"Did you say that this woman took the wrong medicine? Obviously no one accused her, but she actually went to the police station and turned herself in. ”
The waiters at the villa couldn't figure out what Tao Min was thinking. In their opinion, if something like this happens, the police have no evidence, since it is far away. Where have you ever seen someone voluntarily surrender?
Chen Xin knew a little, but it was impossible for her to say that Yi Bai did it now. After all, what Yi Bai and they did made Tao Min unable to bear the pressure and took the initiative to surrender, Chen Xin didn't know at all, and she didn't want to ask more. Because she estimates that the means used in this are not very visible.
Taking advantage of the police going up the mountain, Chen Xin took the bus back to the city directly with her luggage, and someone on the bus was also talking about it.
"I heard that the deceased dreamed of his family, saying that he died unjustly. Then the family went to investigate, and finally found out that there was something wrong with the woman. While talking about marriage with this man, he also maintains an improper relationship with another person, and wants to steal his fiancé's property. Now her fiancé's family is demanding that she be held accountable. If it is really this woman's hand, it is estimated that a death sentence will not be able to escape. ”
This man had a good brother in the criminal police team, and he heard about it from his brother. Because the evidence is basically conclusive, it is only necessary to identify the scene to determine the woman's responsibility.
Everyone is lamenting that they don't know their hearts, saying that the woman looks soft and weak when she hears it, but she didn't expect to dare to even kill someone.
After returning home, Chen Xin called Yi Bai, saying that she saw the police escorting Tao Min up the mountain, Yi Bai said that the deceased's cousin tried to find out, and later drunk Tao Min and took out the truth from her mouth.
Tao Min didn't really want to kill at that time, but because the two were angry after they quarreled, they pushed him when it was dark and the other party couldn't see. At that time, I only thought that a fall was enough, but who knew that the cliff was more than 30 meters, or an almost vertical steep wall. Because the waterfall was so loud that no one heard the man's cry for help, and he fell down and hit his head and died on the spot. And Tao Min was also frightened, scurrying in the mountains all night, after sliding downhill, she fainted because of too panic and loss of strength, after being rescued, she did not know that her boyfriend had died, so she told the rescuers that there were still people on the mountain. ”
Regardless of whether she did it intentionally or not, she herself admitted that she caused the death, and how to deal with and identify the follow-up matters depends on what the deceased's family thinks.
