At 4:02 pm, the police received a report from a runner that a man in a dark shirt was lying on a rocky beach in Shawan.
The police officers arrived at the scene and found that the victim was dead, so they carried the body to the nearby Shawan Road and covered the body with a tent to investigate.

It was confirmed that she was a 39-year-old missing woman surnamed Chen. It is believed that the cause of her death was not suspicious.
