Disposing of bodies in water is different from the general notion of dumping.
Disposing of bodies in water is actually closer to burying them than merely dumping them.
Take the Wang Family River, for example, one of the largest rivers in Tianzhou City with low water flow and significant elevation differences, it even served as a canal in the past.
This river has been a part of Tianzhou City for an unknown amount of time, probably since ancient times.
In recorded history, even during severe droughts, it has never run dry.
Therefore, without the construction and operation of a hydropower station, the chances of a body in the river ever resurfacing are slim.
The result of disposing of bodies in the Wang Family River is essentially the same as that of burying them.
Most murder cases follow the pattern of disposing of bodies far away and burying them nearby. Li Donglin deduced that the perpetrator most likely lives around the area where the body was dumped.
