During use, unfortunately, the microphone's electricity leaked, causing Ms. Q to be electrocuted to death. Because no one was nearby at the time of the incident, no one knew. About 15 minutes later, people in the neighborhood heard strange noises from the speaker, guessing that something was wrong, they rushed over to check and found Ms. Q dead.
