Due to the unnervingly gruesome state of Shang Hao's body, he was to be cremated two days later after the case was officially closed.
With the Special Investigation Team handling the aftermath, the final cause of death was stated as an 'accident' rather than 'suicide'. Of course, this sparked a flurry of discussion and questions from the masses, as it wasn't only Gu Luoxin who had witnessed the young man leaping to his death, but at least, this brought a semblance of closure to the bereaved.
In the funeral hall, Mrs. Shang wept in front of her son's black and white portrait.
