The parents of both parties are Qu Ming who was killed, and Wu Yingming was married. The Los Angeles Police Department and the school announced that they will strengthen a series of security measures in the area. (Alberta Times reporter Zhen Songwei reported from Los Angeles) Qu Ming and Wu Ying, Chinese international students at the University of Southern California, were shot and killed near the campus. They were cremated after a farewell ceremony was held at the Alhambra World Chinese Funeral Home in Los Angeles. As the families of the victims requested a low profile and did not want to be disturbed, the farewell ceremony that day was heavily guarded, with 5 police cars. Many people wearing sunglasses and black clothes were on guard. Not only were the media not allowed to interview and take photos, but they were also ordered to stop even taking a step closer. After the ceremony, the parents of both parties left in a car under the protection of the people in black. No one from the Southern California teachers and students who attended the farewell ceremony was willing to be interviewed. A few days after the incident, Wang Weinan, president of the Chinese Students and Scholars Association of the University of Southern California, revealed to the media that the reason why everyone did not accept interviews that day was out of respect for the families of the victims and to keep a low profile. Moreover, everyone was in a very bad mood and worried about their emotions during the interview. After a few days, I felt a little calmer. According to Wang Weinan, the deceased students Qu Ming and Wu Ying held a ghost marriage with the consent of their parents at the farewell ceremony held at the World Chinese Funeral Home in Alhambra. Qu Ming and Wu Ying truly loved each other. Friends, parents who were immersed in grief held a brief ghost wedding for the lovers, hoping that their beloved son and daughter would stay together happily and be together for a hundred years after entering the kingdom of heaven. They also exchanged rings for Wu Ying and Qu Ming, who were wearing white and black shrouds respectively. The atmosphere of the scene was filled with joy and sorrow. People were moved, but it brought more grief, including parents and relatives of both parties. The teachers and students of Southern California could not control their emotions and burst into tears on the spot. Everyone circled the coffins of Qu Ming and Wu Ying to send their final blessings to the two newlywed lovers. It is a folk custom that ghost marriages do not require a marriage certificate, which is more of a sign of the parents' approval and blessing for their children, and also largely comforts the parents' grief. Afterwards, the teachers and students of Nanjing University shook hands with the parents standing aside to say goodbye, and encouraged them to mourn and accept the incident. The students also burned ghost coins, paper houses, paper cars and other heavenly supplies in the parking lot of the funeral home to send the newlyweds on their way to heaven. In response to the murders of Qu Ming and Wu Ying, the Chinese Journalists Association and the National Chinese Students Rights Association issued a letter asking the University of Southern California to increase the reward of 500,000 for the murders. The National Chinese Youth Federation issued a letter of condolences, hoping to provide assistance within its ability to calm the students' uneasiness as soon as possible and express the group's support for the international students. Students' concerns. The University of Southern California and the Los Angeles Police Department also held a press conference recently to announce that they would strengthen a series of security measures to strengthen security around the school and the safety of the neighborhoods. Los Angeles Mayor Villaraigosa, Los Angeles Police Chief Baker, and USC President Nikias paid great attention to the visit in person.
