Shi Nian left the Golden Sands Hotel and headed to the music bar where the incident occurred.
Ye He arrived earlier and was conducting interviews in the area.
Ye He was perfect for this kind of public interview work. Her sweet and approachable demeanor sometimes led her to speak in a way that seemed thoughtless, which endeared her to people and avoided the sharp-tongued, pretentious nature typical of journalists, preventing any resentment from interviewees.
When Shi Nian arrived, Ye He had already finished her round of interviews. The two stood in the middle of the street, making it inconvenient to converse, so Ye He looked around, preparing to find a place to sit down.
This street was lined with small shops, cafes, tea rooms, and bars. However, Shi Nian pulled Ye He's hand: "Let's go into that one."
Shi Nian was referring to the music bar where the murder happened.
