The media waited in the police station for a day and saw Fu Yue and Qi Wanlian come out, but Zhong Hongyi left and then returned. The media who had been waiting all night gradually suspected that Qi and Fu had left long ago.
There are always people who disregard everything for traffic. Before they even get to the exact news, some marketing accounts publish leading topics such as #Qi Wanlian and Fu Yue suspected of being involved in a homicide case#, #Team staff member died while staying at the station#, and #Escort vehicle drove out of the police station#. Public opinion continued to ferment, and just when Zhong Jiudao and others were analyzing the case, online public opinion had already turned into "Qi Wanlian killed a crew member due to a romantic dispute, and has been escorted to the detention center by the police."
Zhong Jiudao was not in a hurry about this. After all, he knew all the truth and had some Taoist thinking. He was more anxious to find the real mastermind to prevent more people from being killed. The sooner the truth was found out, the more people might be saved.
Moreover, Qi Wanlian is not filming his movie, so the variety show director of "Who Can Escape" and Guan Su are the ones who are more anxious.
Just as they finished analyzing the case, Guan Su called.
"Director Zhong, do you know the details of Qi Wanlian's case? Could she have really been taken away by the police?" Guarding outside the police station were not only gossip media and marketing accounts, but also the people staying overnight, who were also keeping an eye on this matter.
Qi Wanlian is a bit stubborn, and she has never changed. Even though the touching words conveyed in the QR code of the super topic have resolved many of her grievances and her acting skills have improved by leaps and bounds, it is still her obsession and instinct to seduce men to take drugs.
In the crew, even with Zhong Hongyi watching over her all the time, Qi Wanlian still couldn't resist secretly interacting with the male staff. When Zhong Hongyi went to get his lunch box, he turned around and saw Qi Wanlian putting her hand on someone's hand and chatting with him. Her eyes were very seductive.
Moreover, people who have chatted with her will all feel weak, have back pain, and feel as if their bodies are hollowed out the next day. It is said that a certain producer had signs of cheating on his wife and was flirting with a certain female artist. However, after meeting Qi Wanlian, touching her hand and hugging her waist, he felt weak for a whole month. Medication did not work, but instead made him give up the idea of cheating and go home to cultivate his character.
Qi Wanlian didn't take much of these drugs, and she could recover by sleeping well, thinking less about that kind of things, and eating more nourishing food, which was not harmful to the human body. After all, it was just physical contact, and there was no deeper communication, so the harm was not great. Zhong Hongyi couldn't kill his own artist because of this, so he could only manage it more strictly.
Because of this reason, all the men in the crew who had developed strange feelings for Qi Wanlian were basically taken advantage of by Qi Wanlian, and the sound engineer was no exception, so even Guan Su was a little suspicious that the sound engineer died of a romantic dispute. Even though the forensic doctor had issued a certificate stating that the sound engineer had a myocardial infarction, it was possible that he died of something else.
Guan Su, who plays opposite Qi Wanlian, understands her charm best and knows that 99% of men cannot resist her. But for some reason, Guan Su cannot feel love for Qi Wanlian, but instead feels like a father for the first time. This feeling even makes Guan Su lose his temper several times during filming. Fortunately, he has strong professional qualities and managed to survive with his acting skills.
Zhong Jiu said: "Really? She is helping to solve the case. You wait for the police to issue a statement. After that, buy a hot search to clarify."
Zhuang Xinbo was quite cooperative and quickly issued a statement, saying that Qi Wanlian and Fu Yue were only providing clues to the police and assisting in the investigation, and asked everyone not to spread rumors. He also explained that the sound engineer died because his heart could not bear the load due to staying up too late, and called on everyone not to stay up late and to have a healthy work and rest schedule.
Guan Su bought a few trending searches at the right time to clarify, saying that their crew did not exploit their employees. Unless they were shooting night scenes, they would finish work on time at six o'clock. The sound engineer also did not come to work these days, but it was very hard for others to fill his vacancy.
Even so, after all, someone from the crew had passed away, and the compensation the crew should have paid to the family was not too little. The matter was finally settled, and the crew resumed filming.
The matter had just calmed down, and the police had found out that the deceased had joined similar chat groups. On Zhong Jiudao's side, the song selection competition between Jiang Fen and Geng Fu had also begun.
Most of the soundtracks of Zhong Jiudao's work have a light rhythm. Even for very dangerous scenes, he will try his best to use comedic performance and music to handle them. Only two interludes are somewhat dark.
The first one is a song played when the real murderer in the mystery in the book is revealed, and the second one is a suspenseful and even thrilling song played when the detective finally finds out that the son of the murderer outside the book looks exactly like the murderer in the book.
The cheerful part in the beginning was composed by a master in this field, while the two dark songs that were the highlight were hesitant between Geng Fu and Jiang Fen.
Geng Fu is a popular original singer of the mourning culture. His songs are known to be songs about death. He has many fans and a powerful production company behind him, with complicated influence.
Jiang Fen used the stage name "Resurrectionist". He was an old team member of Zhong Jiudao. He produced the music of "Fallen House". Zhong Jiudao recommended him, which caused a disagreement with the producer.
The excellent point of their crew is that no matter what background the selected talents have, they always use their strength to prove and convince the main creative team.
At Zhong Jiudao's suggestion, the two decided to compete.
For the interlude when the murderer confesses in the book, the music editor suggested choosing a singer with a wide vocal range, who can sing out the murderer's inner helplessness and depression with a somewhat sad high note, and can also sing out the solemnity with a low note, reflecting the seriousness of the case, which is also the sublimation point of this light comedy.
Such a singer is certainly not easy to find, but fortunately, everyone in the creative team unanimously recommended Lian Ziyu.
Lian Ziyu has a wide range of voice, and has a foundation in singing opera. She has a long breath and can sing both high and low notes easily. Moreover, he is the protagonist of this background music. Generally, if the actors can sing the interludes in the creation of movies and TV series, it is a kind of icing on the cake. The main creative staff really hopes that Lian Ziyu will sing it.
To be fair, the songs in the competition were also selected and sung by Lien Tzu-yu.
Therefore, Lian Ziyu had to practice both songs in Jiang Fen and Geng Fu's studios respectively. On the final day, he sang both songs, and the creative team and music editor negotiated to decide who to choose.
Of course, the unsuccessful creators will also receive some money. After all, they cannot work for nothing, and their crew is still very rich.
Upon hearing the news, Lian Tzuyu was really excited.
Lian Ziyu was worried that she couldn't find a chance to be alone with Geng Fu. Now she can take advantage of the singing practice to seduce him, let him officially announce their relationship, and torture Geng Fu's fans.
It's like someone sends you a pillow just when you feel sleepy. It's so thoughtful.
Little did he know that all of this was arranged by Zhong Jiudao. He was just waiting for Lian Ziyu to show his hand so that he could teach him a lesson.
Although Geng Fu did something he shouldn't have done, it was Jiang Fen's responsibility to take revenge, and it was his fault, so he should just apologize and not bring disaster to his fans. Lian Ziyu seemed to be helping Jiang Fen teach Geng Fu a lesson, but in fact, it was her own selfish desires that made her want to get the wrath of Geng Fu's fans. Zhong Jiudao would not let such a thing happen.
The person who provided the information was Jiang Fen. Zhong Jiudao didn't want the fake friendship between Jiang Fen and Lian Ziyu to be ruined, so he could only wait for Lian Ziyu to make a move and then punish her when he caught her.
Lian Ziyu wore a long dress that day and was dressed beautifully. In the morning, she asked Luo Huai to get her a bowl of snow pear throat-soothing soup made by Aunt Yang, saying that it was to nourish her throat, but in fact she just wanted to eat something delicious.
All the evil spirits could taste the food handled by Luo Huai. Even Tzuyu was in a good mood after drinking the soup. She couldn't help humming the song "Today is a Good Day" that she had just learned recently. The whole villa was filled with a happy atmosphere.
Seeing his expression, Zhong Jiudao secretly sneered. This time, he only asked Zhong Hongyan to escort Lian Ziyu, so that the stubborn Zhong Hongyan could see Lian Ziyu's sinister intentions with his own eyes. He followed behind, waiting for the opportunity to attack, and taught this guy a lesson.
Who knew that before they left, Zhong Hongqian received the news. Her face changed, and she pulled Zhong Jiudao to her side and said in a low voice: "Director Zhong, Zhuang Xinbo just sent a message saying that there are another victim in S City. He determined that the victim's soul has left his body through the method you taught him, but the victim is still alive. He has been sent for rescue, but to no avail. From his description, it seems that the soul lamp on the victim's head is protected by something and has not been extinguished. He is about to die. We must act as soon as possible. I promised Officer Zhuang to help, but my magic power has not yet recovered, so I am not sure if I can save him."
Human life is at stake, Zhong Jiudao knows this is the most important thing. On the other hand, Lian Ziyu and Zhong Hongyan have already got in the car. If he doesn't follow them, the people over there may not be rescued, and Geng Fu will announce the news to Lian Ziyu!
Zhong Hongyi went to the crew to film. This time they were on location and would not be able to return for a while. Time was running out, and Zhong Jiudao had to make a decision as soon as possible.
In a flash, Zhong Jiudao saw that Luo Huai was wearing the jade pendant he had given him around his waist, a 9.9 pendant with the Chinese character "Kuai" engraved on it hung around his neck, a fake ring with the Chinese character "Kuai" on its left ring finger, and a jade bracelet Zhong Jiudao had just given him on his wrist.
It can be said that he is fully armed, just waiting for the ghost to come to him.
The situation was urgent, Zhong Jiudao pulled Luo Huai to a corner and said in a low voice: "I want to ask you for help with something."
Luo Huai and Zhong Jiudao were very close. Hearing Zhong Jiudao's rapid breathing, he also became nervous. He nodded and said, "I will agree to whatever you ask me to do."
Zhong Jiudao said, "You know how my cousin works. He is not at all worry-free. He and Lian Ziyu have some emotional disputes. I am worried about letting them go. I originally planned to go with him, but he had something urgent to do and had to go somewhere else. Can you help follow Lian Ziyu?"
"That's a problem." When Luo Huai heard about this kind of thing, his frantic heartbeat gradually slowed down.
Zhong Jiudao warned, "It's not just my cousin. Look at Lian Ziyu's outfit today. He's dressed as a woman. I suspect he has other intentions. You know he has a history of being a sea king and has made more than a dozen boyfriends and girlfriends online. When you go there, in addition to Zhong Hongyan, keep an eye on everyone else. Don't let Lian Ziyu cause any scandals before the filming of the movie."
Luo Huai patted his chest and assured: "I understand. Leave it to me. If he makes any unusual move, I will call you immediately."
"Thank you. You are the person I trust the most here." Zhong Jiudao patted Luo Huai's shoulder.
Luo Huai glanced at Zhong Jiudao, lowered his head and said, "Director Zhong, what do you think about Lian Ziyu's feelings for someone of the same sex?"
Zhong Jiudao sneered, "He doesn't understand what love is. He accepts everyone who comes. What does it have to do with men and women? If a tree can be crazy about him, he will even kill hermaphroditic plants."
Luo Huai's tone suddenly dropped: "Okay, I got it. I will keep an eye on him."
"I'll pick you up after I'm done with my work." Zhong Jiudao said and followed Zhong Hongqian. Someone was waiting to rescue them urgently.
He was not worried about Luo Huai getting hurt. Lian Ziyu's painted eyes were painted with a mixture of Luo Huai's and Zhong Jiudao's blood. If Lian Ziyu dared to hurt Luo Huai, Zhong Jiudao could guarantee that the one who would be injured would definitely not be Luo Huai.
As for whether Lian Ziyu would seduce Luo Huai in the same way he dealt with his cousin and Geng Fu, Zhong Jiudao would only sneer at the thought of this. Luo Huai looked down upon people like Lian Ziyu.
