Gu Zi had just placed the rice on the stove when she heard Su Li’s voice. From the tone, it was clear he was talking about something happening next door.

Her heart immediately lurched, and she rushed out, her mind racing through his words. A woman who had caused trouble for her family back in Guangcheng? Could it be Lin Miao?

She quickly asked, "Is it Lin Miao?"

Hearing the commotion, Su Bing emerged from his laboratory and saw Su Li holding onto Big Yellow, nodding furiously. "Yes, it’s that bad woman, Lin Miao. She brought the police to the neighbor’s house, Mom!"

Gu Zi’s confusion deepened. Wasn’t Lin Miao attending university in Guangcheng? How had she suddenly appeared in the capital? And why was she not coming to see her but instead bringing the police to confront someone next door? What was going on?

A strange thought flickered in her mind as she recalled a storyline from the original plot.

In the later stages of the original story, Gong Zhan had moved to the capital for his career, and as his wife, Lin Miao followed him. Upon arriving, she unexpectedly decided to enter the business world, despite Gong Zhan’s skepticism.

Determined to prove herself, she sought out a wealthy female businesswoman in the capital. Though initially dismissive of Lin Miao for her youth and impulsiveness, the businesswoman eventually warmed to her, impressed by Lin Miao’s insights. Eventually, the two women collaborated, and Lin Miao built a successful business empire.

It didn’t stop there. Lin Miao also helped Gong Zhan crack a major case, which garnered her attention in the media. She became known as one of the capital’s rising female heroes, earning the respect of Gong Zhan and his family.

Could this mysterious case be the one involving the neighbor, Jiang Nan?

But as Gu Zi thought more about it, something didn’t add up. She had arrived in this world and changed parts of the plot. Lin Miao hadn’t followed Gong Zhan to the capital this time, so how did she know about this case? How had she traveled all the way from Guangcheng to the capital to get involved? It was all so strange.

Gu Zi felt a surge of unease as her thoughts spiraled. She told her children, "Su Bing, stay inside with your brother and sister. Don’t come out until your dad returns."

With that, she grabbed Big Yellow and hurried out. By the time she reached the front of Jiang Nan’s house, a small crowd had already gathered.

Lin Miao and Jiang Nan were in the middle of a tense confrontation. Lin Miao, recalling the media reports about Gu Zi solving a case, was confident as she addressed the police. "Officer, I’m absolutely certain that everything strange happening in Jiangjia Village is tied to this woman. She killed Li Mei, imprisoned her husband, tortured her in-laws, and those missing children? She’s responsible for all of them."

Jiang Nan stood in stunned silence, her eyes wide, as if her mind had temporarily frozen. There was a flicker of panic in her gaze, but it quickly vanished, replaced by a cold, sinister look.

Where had this woman come from? How could she know all this?

As she listened to Lin Miao’s words, she realized something strange: this woman’s accent was remarkably similar to that of Gu Zi’s younger son. Could it be that she was connected to

Gu Zi’s family?

But that didn’t make sense. The things Lin Miao was saying—things even Gu Zi shouldn’t know—had never been publicly investigated. So how did Lin Miao know?

Jiang Nan was confused, but she quickly retorted, "Who are you to come here and accuse me? This is outrageous! I’m innocent, and the neighbors can vouch for me!"

The onlookers, still in shock, began murmuring among themselves. At Jiang Nan’s words, they were quick to side with her, dismissing Lin Miao’s accusations. "Who is this woman anyway? Why’s she showing up here, accusing Jiang Nan of all this? I think she’s been eyeing Jiang Nan’s money for a while now. Everyone knows Jiang Nan’s husband was wealthy."

"Exactly! We’ve all seen what a good wife Jiang Nan was to her man. Officer, don’t listen to this woman. She’s just trying to stir up trouble. Remember a few days ago, when you came by because of that fool Jiang Yao saying there was a ghost in the house? There was nothing there at all. I’m starting to think this woman might be working with him."

"I remember now! Li Mei, Jiang Yao’s late wife, was the closest to Jiang Nan. After she died, several houses near Jiang Yao’s place were abandoned, all marked as haunted. Now Jiang Yao’s too scared to live there. Maybe he’s trying to take advantage of the situation, maybe planning to team up with some crooks to steal Jiang Nan’s inheritance while she’s alone!"
