Chapter 23 - The Mysterious Encounter by the Pond

In a quiet night, a peculiar incident took place by a pond, leaving authorities baffled as they continue their investigation.

It all began when Fangfang and her mother were walking along a particular road, where a nearby pond held a tragic secret. Fangfang's mother occasionally glanced over her shoulder, her heart filled with unease. Suddenly, Fangfang uttered a sentence that startled her mother: "Mom, look, there are two people up there."

Her mother, trying to conceal her fear, dismissed it, saying, "Don't talk nonsense, let's keep going." She hurriedly pulled Fangfang along. However, the young girl's words spread like wildfire, and many people soon heard the story.

A curious journalist decided to visit Fangfang's home to investigate further. "Fangfang," the reporter inquired, "did you really see two people up there that day?"

Fangfang, with a solemn expression, confirmed, "Yes, I did."

With that, the reporter asked, "Could you please show me where you saw them?" Fangfang agreed to guide the reporter to the location.

Upon arrival, Fangfang pointed to a utility pole and said, "You see, there are two people up there." On closer inspection, there was a sign attached to the pole that read, "Protect public property; it's everyone's responsibility."

This story humorously reveals the innocent perspective of a child and how it led to a mysterious but ultimately harmless encounter by the pond.
