She quickly opened

that a tourist visiting Shoreline Shrine on Lani Island had discovered the body of a young woman tangled in tree roots beneath a rock. Most of the body was submerged in seawater, making it difficult to retrieve. Rather than disturbs the scene, the tourists and staff called the police.
