Hui City.
Mu Anhan got up early and drove to the countryside.
Yang Lili's home was in a very remote village. She said she was a friend of Yang Lili from the city, and she wanted to walk around the place where Yang Lili had lived.
The village chief led her there and chatted with her along the way.
"I heard Lili was killed. Sigh! She was so young, how could such a thing happen to her?"
Mu Anhan, generous as ever, gave the village chief a good pack of cigarettes. "Do you know who she was closest to in the countryside?"
"There was a girl named Zhao Sixue, they were the same age, in the same class. Lili always loved looking pretty, but her grades weren't as good as Si Xue's. Si Xue's family was very poor. She loved music but couldn't afford to study."
"I heard that only city people study in music schools, it costs a fortune. They say Si Xue took the exam for Lili to get into music school back then."
