On August 15, 2007, the investigative lawyer Zhang Guang. Zhang Guang's grandmother and Shen Meizhen were colleagues. When the colleagues gathered in 2004, the two had contact. During this period, Zhang Guang met Shen Meizhen. Zhang Guang is currently working in Chengkang Law Firm and is responsible for economic cases. No abnormal situation was found.
On August 21, 2007, an investigation was conducted on the burning of paper money on Wangjiaxiang Road in April and May. Audio file 04120070821wav.
"...Oh, someone burned paper here before, and I don't know who it was. It was burned at night, and it was not from my door."
“Are there many cases of burning paper here?”
"Not many. I've been guarding this person for five or six years. I only remember it once. I said a few words to the family who burned paper that day. There may be other people who burned it, but I don't usually go there, so I don't know."
"thank you."
...
"...... Some elderly people in the old community still maintain tradition. This is not superstitious, it is just a spiritual sustenance, missing their dead family. Our property management is strictly controlled, and there is absolutely nothing in the community. Even if someone dies to hold a funeral, hello to the cleaners in the community when they celebrate their death anniversary and ask them to clean up in time. Don't worry, this community is well managed."
"Is there no one burning paper money at the intersection? We heard that some people burn paper money there."
"It's outside the community, so we can't control it either. But it's nothing. The sanitation workers in charge of this road are also known to the property management and will say hello to them."
"You don't know which family it is? It's not from this building, right?"
"Oh, absolutely not. The neighbors here are all middle-aged people, and the children are very big, so they don't cause trouble. This house is really good..."
"Apart from this, do you have other properties? We care about this very much and hope to find out that the neighbors around the houses we don't buy conflict with our ideas."
"What's the idea... Hmm, I haven't noticed this before. But I know that even if we burn paper in our community, we go to the cemetery. Many people here are buried in the cemetery, and the bus at the door can be changed to the cemetery shuttle bus. In the past, there were probably more paper burning, but in the past two years, it's much less."
"oh."
...
"...May I ask, I bought paper money here, did I burn it at the intersection?"
"The intersection? The intersection of Wangjiaxiang on the other side?"
"yes."
"It's rare that it's burning there. It's definitely not burning during the day. When the sanitation workers see it, they don't like it. Pedestrians on the road don't like it. At night, there are occasionally, and there are very few. The street lights here are on, and there are food stalls there at night. It's too lively and it's not convenient to burn paper. If you want to burn paper, go to the cemetery. There are buses at the entrance of the community there, and there are shuttle buses. By the way, where are your family buried? We have contacted buses during Qingming Festival. You can go wherever you want to go, and the price is easy to say."
"Yeah, thank you."
...
"Boss, how about it?"
"The neighborhoods are all normal."
"It's not a problem of stumble on the circle."
"perhaps."

"...You want to burn paper, go to the cemetery..."
"You have been traveling around the community over there for a day?"
"Yes. How about it? Have you gained anything?"
"I regret to tell you that there are no. There are many voices, but not the kind we are looking for."
"I just know. Ah! What is that thing? Boss, let's make a trap? Spirit, how about it? What's the right trap?"
“Wait a little longer.”
"Wait? Chen Zhu doesn't live there anymore. He wants to lead the snake out of the hole, so we can get it above."
"I always feel something is wrong."
"Do you want to check Chen Zhu?"
"What? What did you find?"
"No, just intuition."
"You are a computer-playing person who is intuition? This is what people in our art circle are good at."
"Puchi! Mushroom, are you considered the entertainment industry?"
"What do you know?"
"What's wrong with this Zhang Guang, maybe you can check it out again."
"He has no problem and is clean around him."
"It's not a supernatural problem, it's other aspects. It's quite strange that he appears in this."
"Start with his grandmother."
On August 25, 2007, contacted Zhang Guang's grandmother Jiang Yi. Audio file 04120070825wav.
"Shen Meizhen...ah... she died pitifully. The neighborhood committee found the body and couldn't find someone in her family. Finally, she found the unit. I knew about this and asked A Guang to help."
"Can you tell me about her? Our newspaper is very concerned about the current situation of elderly people living alone. We want to report this typical case in depth."
"Her affairs... I'm old and dull, don't be anxious."
"It's okay, you can think slowly."
"Well, she and I entered the factory in the same batch. At that time, we were textile factories, and we were all female textile workers. During the laid-off wave, we didn't meet. We were very lucky. The leaders of our unit were smart and first reorganized to generate income, so we were not that bad. Our factory has good performance and the workers also had a settlement. At that time, it was quite easy for our factory to find a partner. Shen Meizhen also found a partner, but after two talks, they didn't get a deal. Later, I heard that it was all her family opposed it. She had an older brother who was an actor. At that time, actors were rare. Her brother was not a star, but she lived a good life. She also saw beautiful people and wanted to find a beautiful girl. Their family was indeed beautiful."
"What after?"
"As I picked it up, Shen Meizhen was left. At that time, unlike now, I didn't have free love, and I just wanted to get married and have children. What kind of love is... It's too far away. Those of the same age gradually got married. The older and younger ones also wanted to be a person who wanted to be a good person. Except for those who were second marriages, Shen Meizhen looked down on him even more. After a while, it was delayed, and she no longer had the intention. Because of this, she and the family were not very happy. Her brother and sister-in-law were the kind of people who could speak eloquently. I've seen it twice... it was too oily. Those two people were not good at speaking, but were slick and frivolous. Shen Meizhen was a very good person, but she was very introverted. She was not a member of her brother and sister-in-law. When their parents passed away, the two brothers and sisters wouldn't have much contact."
"Ms. Chen's nephew said she looked very old."
"It looks old. If you live a life that is not happy, can you not look old? However, after a few years, she will be much better. She must be happy. She lives alone and is deserted, but she is used to it and finds things for herself. Two years ago, I heard her say that she is knitting sweaters, sewing, and cross-stitch that young people are playing with now. She also reads books and reads a lot of books. The neighborhood committee often comes to care about it, so her life should be OK. But she is a little pitiful when she dies. In the old saying, no one collects the body, and no one worships incense. When the neighborhood committee found the body, she has been dead for two days, and it tastes a little."
"How much do you know about her house? I heard that your grandson helped her deal with her inheritance."
