Chapter 32: New Script
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Yun Xiangxiang did her best for “University dream”, but she honestly didn’t know what the effect would be when it was broadcast.
The topic of this film was very unpopular. People nowadays liked comedy films that would let them relax and unwind.
After chatting with them for a while, they all went to tend to their own affairs. Among the four, Fang Nanyuan should be the most popular now. Fang Nanyuan used his outstanding appearance to act in a young idol drama. It was very popular when it was broadcast at the end of last year.
When Yun Xiangxiang came back from Sichuan Province, Song Meng chattered away to her. The drama that Wei Shanshan acted as second heroine got had average reception. Neither she nor the drama stirred up much discussion.
Yi Yan’s film was outstanding. Unfortunately, his role was the third male protagonist. Since the third male protagonist’s role was different in the film compared to the drama, his screen time was very little. He didn’t have much opportunity to show his talent, so his career didn’t have much growth as a result.
However, even though Brilliant Entertainment was the younger rising generation, due to its financial strength, it was more resourceful than Soaring Media that Yi Yan was contracted to.
Furthermore, Brilliant Entertainment had not ambassador yet and they were willing to invest heavily on newcomers. Hence, Wei Shanshan and Fang Nanyuan had better prospects than Yi Yan.
Han Jing went to pick up Yun Xiangxiang, Song Meng, and Li Xiangling personally when they reached the airport. It was apparent how much she favored Yun Xiangxiang and she was also kind to the friends that Yun Xiangxiang brought along.
Han Jing didn’t even let them stay at a hotel and brought them directly back to her own house.
It was a luxurious villa. Song Meng, who watched the gossip news gripped onto Yun Xiangxiang tightly, “According to the media, this villa is worth this amount.”
Song Meng who had excitement written all over her face, held up two fingers. It was definitely not as simple as twenty million.
Yun Xiangxiang was a person from many circles in her past life. Even though she never paid attention to the interrelated news, seeing the villa with a flower garden, pool and ball court, how would she not know its value in her heart?
Han Jing originally planned to arrange a guest room each for the three of them, but Song Meng strongly requested that she wanted to be in the same room as Li Xiangling. Han Jing also arranged it generously.
Han Jing liked Song Meng as well, as she was cheerful and open-minded. Li Xiangling, on the other hand, was quiet and looked very elegant. She had excellent impressions of them.
Han Jing didn’t plan on going out after returning home. She seemed very carefree and changed into a loose silk nightdress. Putting on an overcoat, she put the script in front of Yun Xiangxiang, “Have a look.”
Song Meng and Li Xiangling didn’t know that Yun Xiangxiang was here to pick up a job and thought they were only here to go sightseeing, then going to the film festival with Han Jing. Both of them had never seen a script before and curiously went to see it together. Since Han Jing gave it to Yun Xiangxiang in front of them, there was nothing to hide.
However, as soon as Song Meng saw traditional Chinese she moved her gaze away. Li Xiangling curiously glanced for a while but soon looked away as well.
Different regional cultures naturally led to the difference in the nature of the script. Yun Xiangxiang also felt a little lost seeing this kind of traditional Chinese, as she was used to seeing simplified Chinese. In particular, it was slightly different in comparison to the Hong Kong style dialogue.
However, it didn’t prevent Yun Xiangxiang from reading the story. Instead, she was very interested.
It wasn’t an unimportant character. To be precise, it was the main heroine. The name of the film was “Justice and Selflessness.”
It could have been mistaken as a police film by listening to the name, but it was not. It was a film about questioning education.
The role that Yun Xiangxiang had was the daughter of the male protagonist. There were no questionable ethics here.
The reason why the daughter was the main heroine and the father was the main protagonist was because the father was the senior chief inspector. However, the main villain that made the police force feel fearful and headache was the daughter, whose script was in Yun Xiangxiang’s hands.
The beginning of the story was about Xu Kang’s promotion to become the chief inspector. On the second day of becoming the chief inspector, a murder case appeared.
The deceased was a regular female teacher. This teacher lived alone and died at home. There were only her fingerprints at the crime scene.
When she died, she was wearing a beautiful red evening dress, sitting on the sofa quietly. There was a bottle of red wine on the coffee table, and there was one third of the wine in the cup. The reports showed that she died of alcohol poisoning. However, the wine she consumed was nowhere near enough to cause alcohol poisoning. They could only wait for the forensic report to determine the cause of her death.
The female teacher stayed in a normal community area. The surveillance cameras were not complete. There was no movement above or below; she died very quietly.
After the police returned to the station after having collected the evidence, one of the members from the same team received a photo. The photo was of the female deceased when they went in and saw. The female deceased looked very strange in the photo.
It was an empty number when they called it. The police couldn’t find even trace it. It publicly sent the photo of the deceased to the law enforcer’s mobile phone. This was basically a slap in the face to the police! The police immediately formed a team, and naturally, it included the people who received the photo.
This was the first murder case for the Chief Inspector. Naturally, Xu Kang wanted to supervise it personally.
That night, before the police could even figure out any clues, the second murder occurred. The deceased was a star with a little popularity. She died in her villa, also wearing a ceremonious red gown, sitting elegantly on the living room sofa. There was a bottle of red wine on the coffee table with one third of the cup remaining. There were traces of two people in the room. One was the deceased, the other was a male friend of the deceased.
The determined cause of death was still alcohol poisoning. When they returned to the police station, not surprisingly, another member of the investigating team received a photo. It was a photo of the deceased female star.
An ordinary female teacher, and a star with a little popularity. The two people had no connection. This put the police station in a terrible state.
Furthermore, this incident caused social panic which put the police station under unprecedented pressure. They had not even found the relationship between the first two victims when the third murder case occurred.
This time, the victim wasn’t a woman. It was an ordinary worker with a family. He was wearing a decent suit, sitting on the dilapidated sofa of his own home. It looked comical. On the table was an opened bottle of high grade red wine with one third of the cup remaining. The cause of death was, again, alcohol poisoning.
When the police collected the evidence and returned to the police station, a third person from the team received a message. The photo captured the moment of the man’s death.
Not only did this murderer easily kill three people of different identities and genders, but also knew the phone number of the police officers like the back of their hand!
The murder method could be said to be extremely gentle without a single drop of blood. All of the people murdered had high grade red wine and exquisite dresses. It indicated that the murderer’s family background was well off.
