Chapter 1137: The Evidence Is In Your House𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

The villagers had known Jiang Nan for decades, many of them having watched her grow up. Some of the older ones had seen her as a child.

Born into a family that valued boys over girls, Jiang Nan’s life had always been hard. Her parents only cared for their sons, making sure they were well-fed and clothed, while completely ignoring her.

Despite this, Jiang Nan was always the dutiful daughter, never holding a grudge against her family for their neglect. After marriage, she continued to support her own family whenever possible.

Jiang Nan’s life was tragically difficult. After two years of marriage without conceiving, her in-laws, who had always been cold and harsh, turned to violence against her. In desperation, Jiang Nan turned to Li Mei, who helped her find a woman to bear a son for her husband’s family.

Afterward, she continued to serve her in-laws, caring for their child and managing their household with patience and meticulous care. Even when that boy mysteriously disappeared, and her husband went searching for him, Jiang Nan never wavered from her duty to her in-laws.

Alone, she cared for her elderly in-laws, running two shops and shouldering all the responsibilities of their household without a single complaint. How could someone who had endured so much hardship possibly be evil? How could such a person commit malicious deeds?

Naturally, the neighbors, who had witnessed her struggles for so long, stood by her. As for the strange woman who appeared out of nowhere, she had no reason to accuse Jiang Nan.

Surely, it was just another one of Jiang Yao’s dirty tricks. He was the one who had been causing trouble, and now he had sent this woman to make false accusations.

But Lin Miao was no ordinary person. She had been reborn. In her previous life, she hadn’t solved the case herself, but she had seen the interview in the newspapers, where Gu Zi had helped solve it. Lin Miao knew the truth and could hardly believe how foolish these people were.

With a cold laugh, she said, “So you really think Jiang Nan is as innocent as you all believe? She’s the victim of so much suffering that it twisted her mind. The so-called haunted house is nothing but a place where she kept her tortured husband locked away. Just because the police didn’t find anything there doesn’t mean Jiang Yao was lying. It simply means the evidence was moved. And the one who did that is none other than Jiang Nan.”

The crowd looked at Jiang Nan with fear in their eyes.

Jiang Nan, unable to maintain her composure, snapped at Lin Miao, “Jiang Yao slanders me, and now you’ve come to tell these terrifying lies. You’re all so wicked. Why are you accusing me? What evidence do you have?”

Lin Miao met her gaze with unflinching resolve. “I have the evidence. You’ve been abused since you were a child, and your health was never good. You couldn’t conceive, and your in-laws treated you terribly. Over the years, your mind has become twisted, but you didn’t have the strength to fight back, so you endured. You asked Li Mei to find a woman for your husband to have a child—something you didn’t want to do. You’ve hated Li Mei ever since.

“Later, you began sowing discord between Li Mei and her husband, Jiang Yao, causing her to be beaten multiple times. When Li Mei was pregnant, you made Jiang Yao believe she was having an affair. He beat her again, but didn’t kill her. When Li Mei went to find someone next door, you secretly followed her and caused her death.

“You wanted Jiang Yao to think he had killed Li Mei, so you manipulated him into leaving Jiangjia Village. You then engineered the disappearance of your husband’s son and pretended to search for him, all the while secretly imprisoning him. You created the so-called haunted house as a cover-up. Am I wrong?”

The crowd was stunned into silence. The sequence of events Lin Miao described seemed to align with what they knew, but was it enough to be considered proof?

Someone in the crowd nervously asked, “But what would Jiang Nan gain from all this?”

Lin Miao turned her cold, mocking gaze on Jiang Nan. “After your husband disappeared, didn’t your in-laws start having problems? Didn’t they become incapacitated? As a result, you, the once-unwanted daughter-in-law, became the head of the family. You took over the two shops, became the ‘boss lady’ and lived a life of ease. No one had to tell you what to do anymore. Now, tell me—what did she gain?”

The neighbors fell silent, a heavy realization settling over them. Yes, after her husband’s disappearance, Jiang Nan had taken full control of the two shops, becoming the owner. Life had been much easier for her. They had always seen her as a long-suffering victim, but now it seemed her life had taken a different turn.

Seeing the situation turning against her, Jiang Nan’s expression darkened. Her eyes narrowed, and with a cold laugh, she looked at Lin Miao. “You keep saying I imprisoned my husband. Fine, then where is he? You must have proof. You can’t just accuse me based on nothing.”

Lin Miao hesitated for a moment, startled by the coldness in Jiang Nan’s gaze. But, in order to preserve her image as the one who would solve the case, she stood firm and said, “The evidence is in your house. Let the police search it. They will surely find something.”
