Chapter 88: Hua Xiang and the Dog (Part 1)

Views:

Hua Xiang suddenly announced his withdrawal from the competition, which was an unexpected development that no one expected. The host froze on the stage, Qiu Qiu subconsciously chased after him, but where was Hua Xiang's shadow

He ran away in a frenzy, but what about the rest of the game

This is a live broadcast! !

The audience waiting in front of the screen all saw Hua Xiang abandoning the game and fleeing. They didn't know what important business he had that made him a "deserter" at such a critical juncture of the game.

All of a sudden, the comments on the webcast platform grew like flying. The fans who originally supported him were extremely disappointed with him, while those who originally disliked him were full of ridicule.

Feifei sitting in the audience also panicked. She is the leader of Huaxiang's support team, and she hurried to appease the little fans who came to cheer for him, but in fact she was also beating drums in her heart, and she was very anxious.

The program group urgently inserted a two-minute commercial, and all the people in charge gathered in the background to discuss what to do.

"Why did he leave so suddenly?"

At that time, the artist coordinator who was standing beside Huaxiang said tremblingly: "He answered... answered a call, it seems that something happened to his dog..."

"An accident happened to the dog?! Is the dog his own son?! Crazy!!" Director Wang was furious, "Also, how many times have I said that the contestants' mobile phones must be turned off, why didn't you check?"

The artist coordinator was on the verge of tears, and he usually checks carefully. But I forgot this time, who would have thought that Hua Xiang would forget to turn off the phone, if he couldn't answer the call, wouldn't there be so many things

The assistant director next to him quickly changed the subject: "Alright, Director Wang, now that Hua Xiang's matter is over, the most important issue is what to do with the show."

"What else can I do? He voluntarily abstained, and the rankings of the remaining seven will be announced according to the results of the competition!"

The executive director frowned, and leaned into Director Wang's ear and said, "...In this way, Xin Tian will be ranked fourth."

The sponsor's father, Enrui Group, asked Xin Tian to get out of the top four. In order to prevent too many people from talking, only a few people in the program group knew about it. In order to make this matter "unbeknownst to anyone", the judges were very skillful in scoring. They originally planned to let her stop at fifth place, but they didn't expect Hua Xiang to run away suddenly. down.

"...that can't be helped." Director Wang gritted his teeth, "The program rules have been announced. If there is still one person missing, I can give him points to push Xin Tian down. Now that everyone is over, Xin Tian can't help it." Who will go up?"

As for how the gold master's father explained... Is it okay for him to explain with Hua Xiang's dog's head? ?

Because Hua Xiang suddenly made such a big mess, after the commercial ended, the host hurriedly came to the stage, invited seven contestants, and announced on the spot that Qiu Qiu, Qi Qiqi, Ai Guo, and Xin Tian had advanced.

Except for Xin Tian who was laughing at Qian Xi on stage, the other three were worried about their friends and couldn't laugh.

After leaving the stage, Ai Guo called Qiu Qiu and asked him, "What happened to Hua Xiang? Is there something urgent at home?"

Qiu Qiu replied: "...No, I heard from the coordinator that something happened to his dog. I can't contact him now."

Ai Guo frowned, and said in disapproval: "Just for a dog? He is too impulsive."

Qiu Qiu understood Hua Xiang's feelings for beef noodles, and corrected him seriously: "Brother Guo, that's not 'a dog', it's 'his dog', Hua Xiang treats it like a family member."

The two of them walked backstage while talking. How could they expect to be surrounded by countless "long guns and short cannons" as soon as they stepped into the waiting room? If he stretched forward, he would poke Qiu Qiu's mouth.

These reporters were recruited by the program team before the start of the game, and they gave them enough money for traveling and writing.

Recently, "Super New Sound Generation" has a good momentum on the Internet, and the Baidu index is rising steadily. The media also want to dig out interesting first-hand information. Xin Tian was the most talked about contestant. Everyone rushed to interview her, but when they saw the three male contestants finished, they hurried over to interview them.

The reporter first randomly asked a few topics related to the competition, song selection, and promotion, and both sides were obviously absent-minded. Qiu Qiu was interviewed for the first time, and he was very cautious when answering. In addition, he was thinking about Hua Xiang's affairs in his heart, so he wanted to finish the interview and leave as soon as possible, but the reporters blocked him in all directions and refused to let him go.

"Qiu Qiu... Qiu Qiu! One last question! I heard that you have a good relationship with player Hua Xiang. What do you think of his abandonment today?"

Holding a microphone in his arms, Qiu Qiu tilted his head after hearing this question, thought hard for a while, and repeated hesitantly: "...you ask me what I think?"

"right!"

"—I watched it in the backstage lounge."

reporter:"… "

Qiu Qiu threw the microphone back, clapped his hands and turned to leave.

When it comes to digging language traps, no one is better at it than Wuli Qiuqiu.

On the other side, Hua Xiang ran out of the TV station, hailed a taxi and went straight to Zhengzheng Pet Hospital. He was sitting in the passenger seat, his hands and feet were shaking, but his brain seemed to be immersed in ice water, and his thoughts were extremely clear.

There was still heavy stage makeup on his face, and the cold sweat from his forehead couldn't be stopped at all. The sweat washed away the makeup on his face, and when he wiped it with his hand, it left countless mottled marks.

The taxi driver glanced at him and handed him a tissue.

"Young man, no matter what happens, don't panic."

"Thank you." Hua Xiang took the tissue.

"Really, don't panic. People tend to do reckless things when they are panicked. Don't make such a mistake."

"...I've done it."

The taxi driver handed him another piece of paper: "Since you have done it, don't regret it. There is no medicine for regret in this world."

On the way, Hua Xiang received a fucking call.

As soon as he said "Hello", Mama Hua cried and said, "You son of a bitch! What the hell happened, you left such an important game and just walked away!"

Hua Xiang couldn't stand his mother crying the most, as soon as his mother cried, he immediately coaxed: "... something happened to my dog."

Hua's mother was taken aback: "When did you raise a dog?"

"I've been raising it for more than half a month. It's injured badly. I may not be able to save it. I'm on my way to the pet hospital now."

"What's the use of you going, can you give it a blood transfusion, or can you see a doctor for it?"

Hua Xiang took a deep breath and let it out slowly.

He leaned his head against the car window, suddenly feeling so tired that he didn't know how to explain it to his mother.

"Mom, you treat it as a dog, but I treat it as a friend. I picked it up from the rain, fed it a little fat, took it to the doctor, and hugged it to sleep every day. If something happens to a friend Is it because I can't help, so I can do my own thing and miss seeing him for the last time?"

He knows that he is too arbitrary, so sometimes the choices he makes will inevitably make others understand.

"Then you shouldn't leave the game and run away!" Hua's mother hated iron and steel, "Look at your brothers and the others, which one has never encountered the situation of 'the family member is sick but you have to go on stage', why don't you go out as usual?" The theater is full of applause? If everyone is like you, when encountering personal matters, leaving all the audience behind, then this theater troupe will not have to open!"

Hua Xiang was at a loss for words for a moment, he knew what his mother said was right, but from his point of view, he didn't feel that his choice was wrong. If his "best friend" falls in a pool of blood while he is honored on stage, he will suffer forever.

In the serious pet hospital, Li Weixi sat on the waiting seat with his back straight. He who always demanded that he be spotless all over his body was very embarrassed at this moment. His clothes were covered with blood and mud, and there were scratches on his elbows.

Opposite him, Niu Niu's original owner, Ms. Zhu, was slumped on the ground, staring absently at the clean ground. Her tears had dried up, and her hair was disheveled. It would not be an exaggeration to describe her as unkempt. The little girl at the front desk wanted to help her up, but she waved her hand and sat on the ground without making a sound or moving.

At this moment, the door of the hospital was knocked open, and Hua Xiang, who looked anxious, rushed straight in.

When he saw Li Weixi, who was covered in blood, his heart tightened, and he rushed to him quickly, grabbed his shoulder and asked, "Mr. Li...how are you, Mr. Li?!"

Li Weixi finally took back the scattered souls. He brushed Hua Xiang's hand off his shoulders and said in a low voice, "I'm fine... it's all beef noodle blood."

Hua Xiang's throat tightened: "Then what happened to it?"

"I don't know yet," Li Weixi shook his head, drawing strokes in the air with both hands, "The motorcycle rushed out from the side and ran over the beef noodle's hind legs. It was lifted to the waist, and several bones were broken... The director said that he had lost a lot of blood, and the hope of recovery was very slim, and asked if he wanted to be relieved."

"Absolutely not!" Hua Xiang was anxious.

Li Weixi nodded and said calmly, "I know."

Hua Xiang was still wearing the clothes he wore when he was performing on stage. Li Weixi sized him up a few times and said guiltily, "Actually, I shouldn't have called you at that time."

But at that time, Beef Noodles was dying and might leave at any time. Li Weixi thought of Hua Xiang's importance to it, and immediately dialed Hua Xiang's number. When he learned that Hua Xiang was about to take the stage, he was afraid of affecting Hua Xiang, so he pretended nothing happened. Unfortunately, the hospital was in a mess and there was no quiet place to rescue the beef noodles. , Hua Xiang listened to all the doctor's words.

"Don't talk nonsense!" Hua Xiang hammered his shoulder heavily, "If you don't notify me in time of such a big incident, I'll die of anger!"

Not caring about anything else, Hua Xiang asked eagerly: "What happened? Did the person who bumped into the dog get caught? Why did he bump into it? Didn't he wear a dog leash?"

There was a coldness in Li Weixi's eyes: "As for the reason of the incident, I also want to know...Miss Zhu!" He turned his gaze to Miss Zhu who was sitting on the ground, and called her again, "Miss Zhu! "

Miss Zhu flinched, and raised her head nervously. Her face was pale, her lips were trembling, and there were still tears on her eyelashes.

Li Weixi's eyes were fixed on her, and his voice was icy: "Miss Zhu, can you please tell us what's going on?"

"What... what..." She trembled and grinned nervously.

Li Weixi stood up and walked in front of Ms. Zhu, her voice gradually increased: "Are you going to say that you don't know anything? It is obviously a dog that has been lost for a long time, but it is not in a hurry to take it home, and insists on meeting on the night of the game to take it away ?”

"I... I'm busy with work..."

"Then why did you deliberately procrastinate for half an hour after the meeting time, insisting on waiting until Hua Xiang was about to go on stage before showing up?"

"..."

"When we met today, you specially chose a corner of the park. I felt a little strange at the time. But after we met, you deliberately took us to a place where there are few people—Miss Zhu, please look into my eyes and tell me, You really don't know anything?"

Hua Xiang was stunned. He stared dumbfounded at the original owner of the beef noodles, unable to believe what he had just heard.

Ms. Zhu's already critical defenses collapsed in an instant. She covered her mouth, tears streaming down her face, and her voice was hoarse.

"I really... I really don't know... I just posted a Weibo saying that I found a dog that I had lost for a long time. Love dogs... A person came to me suddenly after seeing Weibo, gave me a lot of money, and asked me to meet at that place tonight... That person told me that she was Mr. Li's ex-girlfriend, and he had a fight with him. I met alone, so I made an appointment at that time and place... If I knew that this kind of thing would happen, I would definitely not agree to it!"

Hearing this, Hua Xiang completely understood.

The blood in his whole body turned cold at this moment. He looked at the girl in front of him who fell to the ground and cried bitterly, regretting her past, and felt that everything was too absurd.

"You are not worthy to be its owner." Hua Xiang heard his own voice say, "And after the accident, have you ever thought that if that person was a little bit off when he hit the dog, you might be the one who died, or Is my friend?"

On the other side, when Qiu Qiu walked out of the TV station, Fu Ruien was already waiting for him in the parking lot.

Qiu Qiu sat down on the passenger seat sullenly. Even after taking the promotion card, he still couldn't cheer up. He was very worried about his friend and sent him countless WeChat messages, but Hua Xiang didn't reply.

Fu Ruien snorted his head and handed him the folder next to him.

"This is… ?"

Qiu Qiu opened it curiously, and what came into view was a photo of the accident scene. On a small road with few people, the motorcycle crashed into a flower bed beside the road, and the ground was covered with blood.

He was taken aback, and took out the next few sheets of paper to look through carefully, only to find that what he had in his hand was a set of traffic police dispatch records.

In the document, it was written scribbled: At 9:30 p.m. on August xx, 201x, a motorcycle whose photo was named Axxxxxx hit a large dog, and there were no casualties at the scene of the accident.

The blood in the photo was all over the front tires of the motorcycle. The scene was so bloody that Qiu Qiu couldn't bear to watch it again, and quickly closed the record.

"Godfather... this record is...?"

"I watched your live broadcast. Li Weixi called me and begged me to help investigate..." Fu Ruien paused, and said with emotion, "...I really didn't expect that one day he would ask me. This is just a small accident , It was the dog that was injured, not the person. The traffic police had made a record, fined him a few hundred yuan, and was about to leave. I asked He Yu to go over and detain the person."

Fu Ruien sneered: "The motorcycle driver has no guts, he's just a gangster. After scaring him, he admitted that he was hired to kill a dog... The person who contacted him said that the dog had bitten someone, so To kill."

Qiu Qiu asked in disbelief: "Did Xin Tian do it?!"

Apart from Xin Tian, Qiu Qiu really couldn't think of anyone who could benefit from this kind of thing.

"There is no evidence now. The person who contacted him used WeChat, registered with a new mobile phone number, and the account was canceled directly after the transfer, but it must be her, or someone under her." Among the people, you have me. Qi Qiqi is still a child. Compared with Ai Guo, Hua Xiang is the most impulsive and the best to start. It is estimated that she only wanted to affect Hua Xiang's performance in the game at first, but she did not expect him She was so impulsive that she retired directly. I originally planned to kick her out of the game, but I didn't expect her methods to be so vicious."

"But... if he wanted to attack Hua Xiang, why did he target dogs and not humans? Since she can find out that Hua Xiang attaches great importance to beef noodles, she should also be able to find out that Mr. Li is his friend."

"That's why she's so smart." Fu Ruien held Qiu Qiu's hand tightly, "If she lays hands on someone and traces her, she will not be able to escape the crime. But if she kills a dog, even if she is traced, she will not escape the crime." It's not illegal and it won't get her into any trouble."
