The fact that a cousin of a stagehand from the neighboring crew disappeared in the hotel in the film and television city was not concealed.
In less than two days, almost all the nearby film crews knew about it.
Especially the crew of Rong Jing. That little girl always followed Mu Yunzhou here before. Her love for Rong Jing was beyond words, and everyone was familiar with her.
When he suddenly heard that she was missing as well, he looked a little sad.
Rong Jing also heard about this.
Mu Yunzhou sat next to him, describing the situation when the staff discovered that Wen Xiaoxiao was missing, while carefully looking at Rong Jing's expression.
"...Now the stage manager of our group is almost going crazy." Mu Yunzhou said, "After all, so many people disappeared before, and we haven't found a single one until now..."
"He brought the little girl here. His aunt has only this precious daughter. He hasn't dared to tell his aunt about this matter until now... Alas." Mu Yunzhou couldn't help sighing as he spoke.
Rong Jing listened quietly, then took a sip of warm water from the thermos cup and asked calmly, "Did the stage manager ask you to come over?"
Mu Yunzhou: “…”
With an awkward smile, Mu Yunzhou responded vaguely: "...Yeah."
In fact, he was a little hesitant at first. He had come to Rong Jing for help on Bai Peilan's behalf before, but what happened to Bai Peilan was entirely her own fault. He almost got Rong Jing into trouble by helping to make the connection.
But the field work was a difficult matter, especially since Mu Yunzhou himself had met Wen Xiaoxiao and knew that she was just an ordinary girl. So when the field work came to him, he felt soft-hearted and couldn't help but look for Rong Jing again.
But if you think about it carefully, he is actually just taking advantage of his relationship with Rong Jing to make things difficult for him.
His mood suddenly became a little depressed. Mu Yunzhou was about to say something else when he saw Rong Jing frowned slightly and gently put the thermos cup in his hand on the table.
His calm eyes swept across the table, and he didn't know what Rong Jing saw. He raised his eyes and said calmly, "Let him come over after the shooting is over."
He was still wearing the white coat that Ning Chen had worn during autopsies, which was stained with a few spots of dried blood. His slender fingers were lightly resting on his knees. At first glance, there was a strange and bewitching beauty to him.
Mu Yunzhou looked at Rong Jing's hands uncontrollably for a few seconds before he suddenly came to his senses: "... Yeah, I get it."
Rong Jing glanced at him lightly, but didn't pay attention to his strangeness. He just nodded slightly to indicate that he heard it.
Mu Yunzhou looked at it and wanted to laugh for a moment.
Mu Yunzhou rubbed the script pages in his hand with his fingertips and lowered his head. He didn't know where the feeling of loss in his heart came from, but he couldn't help but sigh.
The director was already calling for people. After calming down, Mu Yunzhou stood up and said to Rong Jing with a smile, "Master Rong Tian, please give me your guidance from now on."
This was the last scene of the role he played as a guest star, and also the last scene between him and Rong Jing in this film.
The role played by Mu Yunzhou is an experienced forensic doctor sent by the higher-ups to assist in the investigation. It is because of his presence that the police were finally able to uncover the crime beneath Ning Chen's gentle mask and bring the final "third person" to justice.
In this scene, Ning Chen and the forensic doctor played by Mu Yunzhou met for the first time. Although they spoke to each other in a friendly manner, they were actually testing each other with every word and pushing and pulling each other step by step.
The whole scene requires the feeling that the two of them are consciously relaxed, but in fact there is a tense atmosphere.
"The first shot of the 123rd scene of "Who is the Third Person" begins!"
As the voice of the field manager sounded beside them, Mu Yunzhou and Rong Jing got into the state almost at the same time.
"Forensic doctor Ning." The experienced forensic doctor played by Mu Yunzhou had a polite smile on his face, but his words were extremely sharp. "It has been more than half a month since the case happened. As a forensic doctor, the information you provided to the investigation team seems to be a little too little."
Ning Chen also had a smile on his face, but unlike the polite smile on the surface, his smile seemed to emanate from deep in his eyes, gentle and charming: "What do you mean by this, forensic doctor Han? I always record the results of each autopsy in detail and report them to the investigation team. During the autopsy, whether it is Officer Li or Officer Rong, one of them will be present."
"I don't quite understand what Forensic Doctor Han said suddenly. I wonder if I missed any clues?" Ning Chen asked back.
Doctor Han frowned slightly when he heard this, then smiled again: "If you don't quite understand, then don't understand. I just want to tell Doctor Ning that I will re-dissect the victim's body tonight."
Both of them were forensic doctors. The other party's words were clearly a challenge to Ning Chen's dissection skills, but Ning Chen's attitude was still very restrained. Even his tone when speaking remained gentle and elegant. He just drooped his eyelashes slightly, looking a little unhappy: "Then I hope that forensic doctor Han can really find some new clues."
Ning Chen is essentially an extremely arrogant person. The fact that he dared to personally take over the autopsy work of the case after killing someone is enough to show his crazy character.
He indeed did not do anything tricky during the autopsy. Even if forensic doctor Han performed the autopsy himself, the conclusion he came to would not be any different from his.
In this way, Ning Chen was silently provoking the entire investigation team.
Even if there was another forensic doctor Han, it would only add a little more fun to his game.
The smile on his lips disappeared in a flash. Forensic Doctor Han's test failed again, but he still vaguely felt that something was wrong.
He had heard of this forensic doctor Ning Chenning a long time ago. He knew that he had extremely sophisticated dissection skills, was a gentle and gentlemanly person, and had a good reputation throughout the public security system.
But even if a person has excellent upbringing and a gentle personality, can he really maintain such a good attitude when faced with remarks that are almost nakedly provocative of him shielding the murderer?
Does he really have a clear conscience, or is there some other reason?
With this thought flashing through his mind, Forensic Doctor Han took two steps forward, shortening the distance between himself and Ning Chen to within a few inches.
The two people's auras almost touched each other. Mu Yunzhou looked at Rong Jing's facial features, which were still exquisite even after being magnified. The line he was about to say suddenly got stuck: "...I will definitely find the decisive clue, Forensic Doctor Ning."
Neither Ning Chen nor Rong Jing likes to get so close to people. He frowned slightly, took a step back, and smiled faintly: "I hope so, Forensic Doctor Han."
A "click" sound interrupted the subtle feeling of loss that unconsciously surged up in Mu Yunzhou's heart.
"That was a good performance!"
Hearing that the girl who had come to the crew before was missing, the director was in a bad mood. After watching Rong Jing's performance, he finally smiled: "Even under the guidance of Emperor Mu, he can still not be suppressed. Teacher Rong's acting skills are becoming more and more skilled."
As an actor's acting skills improve, the quality of his films will naturally be improved.
Rong Jing also responded softly, and then his eyes moved slightly to the tall figure standing next to the director.
"Mr. Rong." After greeting with a smile, Xie Xuanqing retracted his gaze from Mu Yunzhou not far away, and looked down at Rong Jing.
He came in while we were still filming.
Because he decided to come and take a look when he was passing by, Xie Xuanqing didn't let Yue Feng notify him. Even the director didn't know why this guy came suddenly. He just thought he was in a whim and wanted to come and take a look at the filming of the film invested by his industry.
However, when he saw Xie Xuanqing take the initiative to greet Rong Jing, he vaguely guessed something.
After chatting for a few more words, the director found an excuse to leave and let the two of them talk.
"Why are you here?" Rong Jing frowned and asked.
"I happened to be discussing a business nearby, and heard from Yue Feng that Mr. Rong's filming crew was here, so I came to take a look."
Just as Rong Jing opened his mouth, Xie Xuanqing had already answered his question.
Rong Jing: “…”
"Mr. Rong's acting skills... are very good." Xie Xuan thought for a moment and finally used the word "very good".
In his opinion, Rong Jing's acting skills were really good, even amazing. As an outsider, he knew that they were just filming, but he could still feel the tense and calm atmosphere between the two actors.
…In the last shot, the two of them were too close, and it was a bit dazzling.
He lowered his eyes to suppress the slight displeasure in his heart, and glanced at Rong Jing lightly: "I asked Yue Feng to go out and buy some things. Is there anything Mr. Rong would like?"
Xie Xuanqing came here in a hurry and didn't have anything with him.
Rong Jing was confused for a moment, then shook his head: "Nothing."
There are shopping malls in the film and television city, and Master Rong is not materially inclined, so he really doesn't want anything in particular.
Xie Xuanqing heard this and frowned slightly: "I understand."
But having said that, when Yue Feng came back with his bodyguards, Rong Jing still received two packages of crab meat dumplings that he had taken away from the Cantonese restaurant they had been to before.
I don’t know how the store packed it. When Rong Jing got it, the outside of the box was still warm to the touch.
Of course, the gifts received by the other staff members were not cheap either, but his gift was more thoughtful.
Rong Jing: “…”
The big boss was giving away money, so the director simply stopped filming for half a day, found a seat to sit down and enjoy his share happily.
Now most of the staff around had dispersed. Rong Jing lowered his eyes to look at the crab meat soup in his hand, then opened the takeaway box, picked up the chopsticks and took a bite.
The salty and fresh soup flowed into my mouth, which was the taste that Master Rong loved the most.
Xie Xuanqing looked at Rong Jing's expression and he couldn't help but relax a lot, a smile appeared in his eyes.
But he couldn't stay here for long. After checking the time, Xie Xuanqing asked, "I heard that something happened in the film and television city recently?"
Rong Jing just finished the last crab meat soup. Putting down his chopsticks, he frowned and said, "Hmm."
After all, Wen Xiaoxiao is his... fan, and now that she is missing, he may no longer be able to stay out of it.
Xie Xuanqing had heard some news before coming here, and seeing Rong Jing's expression, he could probably guess something.
He sighed inwardly, "If there is anything you need my help with, Mr. Rong, just let me know at any time."
Most people might think his words were just politeness at first, but Rong Jing was moved when he heard them.
In the eyes of a heavenly master like Rong Jing, many things may not be considered coincidences.
——Xie Xuanqing came here at this time, most likely because he would need to use his strength to solve this missing case.
His eyes flickered slightly, and Rong Jing tried to cast another Zhou Tian Gua.
This time, the hexagram was no longer hazy and chaotic, but slowly became clearer.
There was a dull rumble of thunder outside. The staff, who were eating the gifts brought by the big boss, wondered: "Why is there thunder in the middle of winter?"
I went out and took a look. It didn't rain outside.
Only Xie Xuan, who was sitting in front of Rong Jing, saw him suddenly make a very strange and slightly mysterious movement with his hands. He vaguely guessed that the thunder outside might have something to do with Rong Jing.
But even if an ordinary Heavenly Master took action, how could he have such a scene?
Should we say that Mr. Rong really has a high level of cultivation?
Xie Xuanqing thought about it in his heart, but remained silent, for fear of disturbing Rong Jing.
After an unknown amount of time, the Zhoutian Gua in Rong Jing's hand finally dissipated. His amber eyes slowly raised and his expression became noticeably colder.
His expression changed, and Xie Xuan asked softly: "...Sir, have you figured out something?"
"Yeah." Rong Jing frowned, but he didn't think about hiding it from Xie Xuanqing, "This is a bit disgusting."
This was the first time that Xie Xuanqing heard such emotionally charged words from Rong Jing's mouth.
Considering that most of the missing people were good-looking young men and women, Xie Xuanqing's expression changed.
However, Rong Jing's emotions were only expressed for a moment before he retracted them.
The hexagram calculated before was correct, and those missing people had not suffered any harm so far. However, the number of people that the person behind the scenes wanted to collect seemed to be almost the same, and a warning was sent out in the hexagram.
Perhaps it was because Wen Xiaoxiao had been expressing her love for the actor to him these past few days. After that faint wish power merged into his soul, it implicated a cause and effect, allowing Rong Jing to use this connection to start the Zhoutian hexagram and calculate a hexagram.
——He wants to seize the good fortune of the harmony of yin and yang without considering whether he can bear it.
Rong Jing was a great state teacher who was second only to the emperor of Da Zhao at that time. He had seen countless magic techniques, and naturally he had seen such evil magic of dual cultivation.
But he didn't expect that there would be someone who would re-evolve this evil magic on this basis.
However, the general idea was worked out, but Rong Jing was still a little unclear about some details.
Fortunately, Wen Xiaoxiao’s cousin is in the film and television city, and some things can be answered by just asking.
Rong Jing stood up and asked the director for a day off. The director looked at Xie Xuanqing who was following behind him, and thought of his true identity. His expression changed slightly, but he didn't say much and just nodded in agreement.
Mu Yunzhou, who had not left, watched Xie Xuanqing follow behind Rong Jing. When he came over, he seemed to notice his presence and nodded slightly at him.
"Mr. Rong." He heard the Xie family head called Rong Jing in a low voice, and then his fingertips rubbed Rong Jing's extremely beautiful long hair, "There is something on it."
Rong Jing didn't care. He just looked back at the half-ripened yellow leaf that Xie Xuan was holding between his fingertips. "Thank you."
Xie Xuan raised his head slightly and smiled back.
Seeing this, Mu Yunzhou tightened his hand holding the lunch box unconsciously, then came to his senses, covered the lunch box that he had not eaten much of, and put it back on the table.
The director had given the stagehand three days off, so when Rong Jing and the others went to look for him, he came out very quickly.
"...Master Rong." The stagehand had worked with Rong Jing before, and had witnessed how respectful Liu Tingxuan and others were to Rong Jing when they came to visit. Although he was anxious because of the disappearance of his cousin, he still maintained sufficient respect and politeness when facing Rong Jing.
Rong Jing nodded slightly and said without further ado: "Can you tell me what happened when you found out she was missing?"
The stage manager immediately recognized who the "she" in Rong Jing's words referred to. His eyes turned red and he said, "Okay."
Wen Xiaoxiao was found missing the day before yesterday. When the staff went to report the case, I had already told the police something similar. When I say it again now, the logic is still clear.
"...I followed the investigators to review the surveillance footage again. Xiaoxiao never left her room after getting the takeaway that day, and the surveillance footage didn't capture her leaving the hotel, so I have no idea why she disappeared from the room." The crew member whispered.
He didn't dare to contact his aunt for two consecutive days. Now his aunt has some doubts. If Xiaoxiao really can't be found...
The staff rubbed his face and continued, "I also checked the room. Xiaoxiao and I both booked the 15th floor. The windows were all equipped with security nets, and the furnishings inside looked like someone had just moved in. Nothing had changed."
However, there seems to be something strange.
The stagehand thought for a moment and said, "...I just don't quite remember. Xiaoxiao ordered takeout that day, but when I went in, I didn't seem to see any takeout boxes in the room."
It is possible that Wen Xiaoxiao threw away the takeaway box after eating it, and the staff also forgot whether the trash can in the room was full, so he was a little annoyed at this time.
Rong Jing listened and vaguely guessed something.
"Is her cell phone still there?" Although Xie Xuanqing didn't know much about this matter, his research on human hearts was beyond the reach of everyone present.
He only glanced at Rong Jing's slightly raised eyebrows, and then directly followed the staff's words and asked, "Can you show us her takeout records?"
The stage manager was stunned for a moment. His face might be unfamiliar to outsiders, but to people in the circle, it was very familiar.
Especially since the venue staff is from Xie's Entertainment, and everyone knows that Xie's Entertainment is a subsidiary of Xie's Group.
Now the boss of Xie Entertainment was sitting in front of him and talking to him. The stagehand was getting more and more nervous. Fortunately, he was still concerned about the safety of his cousin and quickly came to his senses: "She's gone. When I called the police, they sealed off the room and took my phone back. They said they were going to investigate."
Rong Jing: “I understand.”
This case has already been taken over by the special department, so if these things are to be used, they will probably have to go through the special department.
Lowering his eyes, Rong Jing opened WeChat and sent a message to Zhou Songyun.
The other side responded quickly.
Wen Xiaoxiao's mobile phone has a password, and the special department extracted the takeaway information from it through some technical means.
She ordered a total of ten skewers of barbecue and a cup of milk tea.
Zhou Songyun: Master Long Tianshi suspected that there was something wrong with that milk tea.
The more people who are missing, the more information is exposed. Through the integration of information during this period, most of the overlapping characteristics of the missing people have been found -
Before they disappeared, almost all of them had drunk milk tea from this chain brand.
If we zoom out a little bit, there is the one near the film and television city and the one in the university town.
Rong Jing scanned the message sent by Zhou Songyun and then replied.
Master Rong: Yes
Zhou Songyun: “…”
What does "hmm" mean? Does it mean that you agree with Master Long's suspicion?
Zhou Songyun: I have sent someone to collect evidence, and we will have the results in about half an hour.
Not long after he sent the message, the phone rang. The subordinate on the other end said, "Captain, the evidence has been collected at the milk tea shop. Master Long Tianshi said... a strange yin energy is added to the milk tea here. It is not harmful to the human body, but it will mark certain people."
"Master Long Tian suspected that the other party relied on this ray of Yin Qi to lock the victim and take the victim away."
The other party probably didn't expect the special department to act so quickly this time. Nothing in the two milk tea shops was destroyed, so after Long Tianshi went over, she relied on her poisonous insects of various shapes and colors to quickly lock onto the milk pot filled with Yin Qi.
All of these Yin Qi have been specially processed, and the dark energy that was easily detected by the Heavenly Master has almost completely dissipated, leaving only the purest breath, which enters the human body along with the prepared milk tea and marks specific people.
That is to say, Master Long Tianshi specialized in the art of Gu, and the Gu insects were extremely sensitive to Yin energy, so he was able to discover this abnormality in the first place.
Otherwise, if it were someone else, it might take some time.
With the first clue, the investigation becomes less difficult.
The subordinates who had been searching for a mountain matching the description in the east direction also sent back a message saying that they had found the mountain shaped like a treasure cover. However, this mountain, called Qiyun Mountain, covers a very vast area, and even if they found the mountain, it would be difficult to find the victim.
Fortunately, Rong Jing is willing to take action.
Zhou Songyun looked at the message sent by Rong Jing with a complicated expression, but finally replied: "Okay, Master Rong, I will send someone to pick you up immediately."
Master Rong Tianshi: No need.
Zhou Songyun: “?”
But Master Rong Tian naturally had his reasons for doing things, so Zhou Songyun did not continue to ask, but just forwarded the address sent by Rong Jing to Master Long Tian on the other side.
Speaking of which, they have only now determined the common characteristics of the missing persons, which is also why Zhou Songyun did not dare to use people from the special department easily.
Master Long is the first master who passed Zhou Songyun's secret inspection. She has been an orphan since childhood, and most of her skills are developed by herself. She is also extremely talented. Basically, everything she has handled in the past few years has been solved perfectly. She should be a trustworthy master.
With the addition of Master Long, the strangeness in the milk tea shop was soon exposed.
Rong Jing had vaguely felt that it might be a problem with the mark, and the message Zhou Songyun sent just confirmed his guess.
Then there is an explanation for how those victims were chosen and taken away.
