Chapter 137 The Real Her
When I came out of Gaiduoduo's lounge, the statements over there had already been taken.
Shen Zhenzhu went over to examine the bouquet again. There were many flowers in it that she couldn't name, and they looked like the same kind of flowers that she kept in her vase every now and then.
"Aren't the flowers beautiful? This bouquet is worth a month's salary for an average person. What a movie fan!" Susan was tidying up her cosmetics on the table as she went to touch up her makeup. The others also went to their respective posts.
Shen Zhenzhu was surprised that the flowers Gu Yanzheng bought were so expensive.
Before Susan was about to leave, Shen Zhenzhu called out to her, "Wait, I'll go with you."
"Let's go." Susan had been in the business for a long time and wasn't very old. After this incident, she was afraid to walk alone. Having a police officer accompany her was the best option.
As Shen Zhenzhu thought back to her time at the driving school with Ouyang Qing, she genuinely didn't realize that Ouyang Qing had a bad temper. Instead, she thought of her as a very warm and caring older sister.
Considering the recent gossip news about her verbally abusing staff, Shen Zhenzhu stopped at the filming location and asked Susan, "How's Sister Qing's temper?"
Susan glanced around at the people, all eyes fixed on Ouyang Qing in the center of the room. She pulled Chen Zhenzhu aside and whispered, "I heard it's not good."
"Have you heard?"
Susan said, "That's what everyone says."
"You're someone close to her and you don't know that?"
"Actually, she hasn't been here long. The previous one was supposedly driven away by her scolding."
Chen Zhenzhu changed the subject: "Did you know that many celebrities take sleeping pills?"
Susan nodded: "I know that. People in this industry work day and night. Not to mention celebrities, I sometimes take it to help me sleep."
“Okay, thank you.” Chen Zhenzhu took out her business card and handed it to her: “I see you’re often around her. You can call me if you have any questions.”
"Makeup artist, touch up the makeup! Don't waste everyone's time!" the assistant director of the film crew shouted fiercely on set.
“The people in the crew aren’t very good-tempered,” Susan said, then quickly walked over. “You’ll get used to it.”
Shen Zhenzhu walked to a spot not far away and stood guard beside Gu Yanzheng, who was filming with Ouyang Qing.
Gu Yanzheng asked, "How is it?"
"Can a person's temper really be faked so skillfully?" Shen Zhenzhu glanced at Gu Yanzheng, then looked at the famous Hong Kong actor who was acting with Ouyang Qing in the middle of the scene. Looking at him, she thought her brother Zheng was the most muscular and well-proportioned.
“Those who are good at disguising themselves, cunning criminals, or trained national security personnel can all achieve the effect of concealment.” Gu Yanzheng handed Shen Zhenzhu a bottle of mineral water, which Shen Zhenzhu then unscrewed and drank with a bold, high-spirited motion.
Gu Yanzheng said, "...I've never drunk it."
Chen Zhenzhu wiped her mouth: "I'm used to them. Do you have any leads?"
Gu Yanzheng said, "Not for now."
Shen Zhenzhu said, "The threatening letter demanded that she stop acting, so it must be someone in the film and television industry."
"This scope is still too large."
Shen Zhenzhu said, "That's how it seems at the moment."
Gu Yanzheng said, "There are too few clues, and the threatening letters from the other party are becoming more and more dangerous. The fifth one already shows signs of taking action. You and Lu Ye should not leave for the next few days. I will arrange for two more people to come and protect her closely with you."
"Ah? Okay." Shen Zhenzhu nodded in agreement.
That night, Ouyang Qing's big show was filmed until the early hours of the morning.
At daybreak, Gu Yanzheng was called away by phone. Lu Ye observed from the outside, while Shen Zhenzhu was still sitting on the trunk waiting for Ouyang Qing to finish his performance.
Finally, around 9 PM, Ouyang Qing finished filming. The exhausted crew packed up and left.
"How can a woman sit in a trunk? Get up, get up!" A hot-tempered assistant director from the film crew came over.
"Is there a problem?" Shen Zhenzhu stood up inexplicably and saw that there were quite a few extras sitting on the boxes next to her, and upon closer inspection, they were all men.
“You are the problem,” the assistant director said in an unfriendly tone.
"There's no such rule in my crew." Ouyang Qing strode over, pulled Shen Zhenzhu aside, and scolded the assistant director, "Don't give me those different rules for men and women. I hate people like that the most. Take it or leave it!"
Even Shen Zhenzhu wanted to applaud her.
The assistant director, who was in his forties, felt embarrassed and muttered, "Rules are rules, passed down for generations. If you want this film to be successful, you have to understand the rules."
"Rules my ass! I am the rule!" Ouyang Qing was furious. There were five or six assistant directors in the crew, but she didn't argue with them. Instead, she shouted at the director, "Who introduced this guy? You teach him a lesson today. Let him know that if you look down on women, you shouldn't make money off them! That's the rule of our crew!"
Shen Zhenzhu witnessed Ouyang Qing's fiery temper, but she thought he was right. Did she really need someone to teach her such a principle?
The director immediately yelled at the assistant director and urged Ouyang Qing to leave: "What's with the attitude towards you? Replace him. You've worked hard, go back and rest. Try to get more takes done in one take."
“Come on, let’s go to my hotel to rest.” Ouyang Qing pulled Chen Zhenzhu and walked past the many staff members, saying as they went, “Don’t be fooled by the fashionable and glamorous people in this industry. They’re more superstitious than anyone else at heart. Not to mention their sycophancy and bullying, I can’t control other film crews, but I’ll shut down any of my own film crews I see.”
“Okay, I have a few questions to ask you after we get there.” Chen Zhenzhu looked down at the stiletto heels she had changed into, which allowed her to walk with ease.
As you walk out of the tent, you can hear the screams of fans behind the security guards.
Crack.
Crackling sounds.
Chen Zhenzhu quickly turned around.
Ouyang Qing said casually, "Keep your distance from me, so you don't get caught in the photos too."
"Sister Qing, what you just said was so impressive." A relatively unknown supporting actress from the same production team walked up to Ouyang Qing and whispered, "I've disliked that assistant director for a long time, and you've spoken our minds."
As she spoke, several more actresses followed behind. Shen Zhenzhu couldn't recall their names at the moment, so she could only wave to the plainclothes officers not far away to follow as well.
"Good, that assistant director was leering at my thighs last time."
"I just saw someone with a camera. Could it be that the news of Sister Qing throwing a tantrum on set will be on the front page again tomorrow?"
"Let's go then, our Sister Qing has never been afraid of anyone."
"That's right, Sister Qing has such a good temper, she must have been angered by them."
"That's absolutely right. Even good-tempered people get angry sometimes. It's bad for your health if you don't let it out."
Upon hearing the phrase "such a good temper," Shen Zhenzhu couldn't help but quickly step forward. She glanced at the three actresses who were talking, chattering intimately around Ouyang Qing.
Shen Zhenzhu was confused. Why did everyone around her say that Ouyang Qing had a bad temper, while everyone else said that she had a good temper?
With this question in mind, Shen Zhenzhu kept a close watch on the hotel.
"How is it? It doesn't look very good on the outside, but the room is quite nice inside." Ouyang Qing took off his coat and was about to hang it up when Shao Li took it from behind and hung it up.
"That's wonderful, you can finally get some rest," Chen Zhenzhu said sincerely.
Ouyang Qing cupped Shen Zhenzhu's face and said, "Look how beautiful her eyes are, and how delicate her features are. If you ever decide you don't want to be a police officer anymore, remember to look for Sister Qing. Sister Qing knows you can fight. Female celebrities who can fight are in high demand these days."
Shen Zhenzhu had never been praised so flatteringly in her two lives, and said shyly, "I really like this job; it reflects my ideals."
"That's really impressive. Then let's strive towards our ideals." Ouyang Qing let go of her hand and walked to the master bedroom of the suite, inviting her, "Want to take a bath with me? We can chat while we shower."
Shen Zhenzhu quickly declined, "No, you should wash first, and we can talk after you're done."
“The young lady is shy.” Ouyang Qing smiled and said, “There’s fruit and cookies on the coffee table. You and your colleagues can help yourselves. I’ll just take a shower and be right back.”
Chen Zhenzhu sat at the coffee table; this was her first time in such a luxurious hotel. She had been to one restaurant before, though.
"Have some tea." Shao Li poured tea for Chen Zhenzhu and said with a smile, "You've worked hard these past few days. I'll bring you breakfast right away."
"It's only right." Chen Zhenzhu was a little hungry, and since Sister Qing offered her some, she didn't stand on ceremony. She picked up some biscuits from the coffee table, broke them up, and shared them to fill her stomach.
Ouyang Aihua also returned from the film set, yawning several times. She went straight into the suite and stood by the door, saying to Ouyang Qing, "I'll cancel the promotional gala the day after tomorrow for you. There will be huge crowds there. What if something happens if you go?"
Ouyang Qing picked out a dress to wear after her shower and said nonchalantly, "I've already agreed to be Liancheng's city ambassador, and it's been featured in the local newspapers and magazines. It wouldn't be right to back out at the last minute. I don't want to disappoint those who like me."
Ouyang Aihua retorted angrily, "It's not much money. What if you receive a threatening letter and decide to take action at that time?"
Ouyang Qing said, "With a capable policewoman by my side, I'm not afraid at all. Besides, city promotion is crucial. Since I've signed the contract, I have to take responsibility. The amount of money doesn't matter; it's about my conscience."
The hotel room door was open, and someone was standing outside with a meal: "Excuse me, is Mr. Ouyang here? Your meal has arrived."
"Shout! Shout! Don't you have eyes?!" Ouyang Aihua couldn't stop Ouyang Qing, so she rushed out of the suite and vented her anger on the food delivery personnel outside: "Why are you only coming now? The soup is cold, how are we supposed to drink it? If we get sick and can't go on set tomorrow, will you take responsibility?"
"Excuse me, Mr. Ouyang, the soup here is still warm. Would you like to—"
"Put your things down and leave right now," Ouyang Qing roared. "Open the wine before you go."
Two hotel staff members awkwardly arranged the lavish breakfast on the food cart. As she left, Chen Zhenzhu noticed a photograph of Ouyang Qing on the ground.
Chen Zhenzhu picked it up, walked to the door, and handed it to them: "I lost the photo."
One of them said in a bad mood, "Forget it, if we had known he was like this, we wouldn't have been fans."
Shao Li bought several extra breakfasts from outside, which were prepared for Shen Zhenzhu and the other agents in various locations.
Without needing Shen Zhenzhu to explain the situation, she deftly took out two autographed photos of Ouyang Qing from her backpack and handed them to them: "Don't be angry, she's been busy with many dramas lately and is under a lot of pressure. These are autographed photos, a gift for you."
"It's not that Teacher Ouyang Qing is angry with us. Oh well, I won't explain anymore, thank you." The male waiter, who hadn't originally planned to be a fan, took the photo but still smiled happily.
After they left, Shao Li sighed and said, "Both of these siblings have terrible tempers."
Shen Zhenzhu frowned and said, "I didn't see Sister Qing being angry. On the contrary, Mr. Ouyang was very angry. As Sister Qing's older brother, he is involved in her work and life. Every move he makes represents her. He always causes Sister Qing a lot of trouble in this way."
Shao Li said helplessly, "I've already told him, but both siblings are stubborn. I can only try my best to clean up their messes. The younger sister is a little better than the older brother, but... I won't say anything more. You'll understand in time."
"I think Sister Qing is good to everyone around her. If there's anything wrong, it's just a misunderstanding." Chen Zhenzhu took the lunchbox and saw Lu Ye waving at her from next door, so she simply took it and ate it.
"I checked the hotel, and I didn't find any problems." Lu Ye shoveled into his expensive boxed lunch, making smacking noises, but he wasn't very satisfied.
"All five threatening letters were discovered when there were many people around. Some were in Sister Qing's lounge, some in the banquet dressing room, and some were slipped under the hotel door." Shen Zhenzhu had little appetite this morning because of Ouyang Aihua's noise, and she ate a couple of bites of fried noodles.
"What do you think?" Lu Ye had a guess in his mind and wanted to know what Shen Zhenzhu thought.
“I feel it was done by someone close to me,” Shen Zhenzhu said. “After screening out everyone who was present when the five threatening letters were discovered, the rest are suspects.”
“We’re thinking the same thing.” Lu Ye has matured a lot since two years ago. Seeing that Chen Zhenzhu wasn’t eating much, he finished his breakfast in big bites and wiped his mouth. “You should be done showering by now, right? Shall I shower with you?”
“Okay.” Shen Zhenzhu and Lu Ye returned to Ouyang Qing’s suite, where Ouyang Qing was eating breakfast while wearing a face mask.
Her diet consisted of simple foods: eggs, corn, and fish.
Upon seeing Chen Zhenzhu approach, he swallowed the last bite of his food and said, "Let's talk here."
Lu Ye glanced at Shao Li and Ouyang Aihua and said, "Could you two please step outside for a moment?"
Gai Duoduo appeared at the door, carrying a thermos, and said, "Sister Qing, my mom brought you some black chicken soup. Remember to drink it after you finish your nap."
Ouyang Qing was used to this, and walked over to take the thermos, saying, "Didn't I tell you not to deliver it anymore? I feel bad for troubling your mother so much."
"It's alright, I have some too. It's stewing anyway, so it's just something I added." Under Gai Duoduo's delicate makeup, there was no trace of the tears she had shed last night. She added with a smile, "Mine's too. I'll bring it to you in a couple of days; it's especially good for nourishing your blood and energy."
"Please give my regards to your aunt and thank her for the delicious chicken soup."
"Okay, why are you being so polite with me?" Gai Duoduo said and left. Shen Zhenzhu watched from the doorway as she moved into the room diagonally opposite.
Ouyang Qing's suite was significantly larger than the other rooms, luxuriously decorated, and included a master bedroom, two secondary bedrooms, a study, and a reception room.
After breakfast, Ouyang Qing stood at the bar and poured himself a glass of red wine: "It helps me sleep."
Lu Ye entered from outside, and Shen Zhenzhu nodded understandingly: "Shall we begin?"
Ouyang Qing laughed and said, "Ask whatever you want. I'm going to sleep after I finish. You all should get some rest too, don't overwork yourselves."
Thinking of the sleeping pills, Chen Zhenzhu said, "I saw that the hotel has a swimming pool and a gym. If I can't sleep, I can exercise beforehand."
Ouyang Qing said, "There are too many troubles around me."
Shen Zhenzhu squatted down slightly and vigorously swung her fists to teach Ouyang Qing: "You can learn from me. When you throw a left hook, say 'I am strong' and when you throw a right hook, say 'I am great'. When you throw a series of punches, shout 'I am excellent!' Whenever I have troubles, my left and right hooks can make my troubles disappear."
"real?"
"Really? It's my 'good mood spell'!"
“That’s a great idea.” Ouyang Qing didn’t think she was joking, so he repeated it and nodded.
"It's almost time, let's sit on the sofa and begin." Shen Zhenzhu repeated the questions she had asked earlier, and Ouyang Qing's answers were similar to those of Ouyang Aihua and Shao Li.
“I know many people want to replace me, but there can only be one ‘Ouyang Qing’ throughout history, and that is me. I cannot be replaced.”
"What about the other advertisers and investors?"
"Advertisers are all begging me to shoot for them, but I choose products based on quality. I only accept shoots if I find a product I like using it myself. Getting to where I am today hasn't been easy, and I don't want to ruin my reputation."
Ouyang Qing took a small sip of red wine and said, "As for directors and film investors, if they want to play the underhanded game, I'll replace them all. Good directors are rare, but they're not exactly unheard of. If investors want to play the underhanded game, I'll invest myself; it's not like I can't afford it. Why put up with that?"
Only Ouyang Qing could say something like that.
Seeing that Shen Zhenzhu was listening attentively, she spoke her mind: "Besides, there are now first- and second-generation male directors everywhere. It's time to cultivate female directors and let them rise to prominence. Film and television, as a medium, can spread many ideas and trends. I don't want the audience to continue to be influenced by the perspectives and thoughts of traditional male directors. I even think that in the future, it will ultimately be a woman's world."
The queen-like speech didn't make Shen Zhenzhu feel that it was exaggerated or childish; on the contrary, she felt that if it were Sister Qing, she could definitely do it.
If that kind of thing hadn't happened to her... Shen Zhenzhu, as a fan, tried her best to remind him today, and hopes Ouyang Qingzhen will take the fans' words to heart.
"Sister Qing, has anyone ever said that your thinking is quite avant-garde?"
"Some people say I'm prone to overthinking." Even without makeup, Ouyang Qing was breathtakingly beautiful. Her slight smile made Chen Zhenzhu's heart flutter.
"Do you ever feel jealous of others?"
“I do feel jealous of men. We’re all the same kind of people, so why are they considered superior to women?” Ouyang Qing lowered his eyes and said, “Women in our society still have too little say. We all need to cooperate and fight for our rights. As for feeling jealous of women, I really don’t.”
At this point, Ouyang Qing smiled confidently and said, "I sincerely hope that all girls, young and old, will get better and better. I will learn from those who are better than me, and I will cherish those who are weaker than me. Jealousy is the most useless emotion for a woman."
Clap clap clap, clap clap clap.
Shen Zhenzhu and Lu Ye applauded Ouyang Qing in unison. Shen Zhenzhu believed it; the Ouyang Qing before her was not feigning a personality. His innate, strong self-confidence could not be faked.
Ouyang Qing slightly raised his chin, striking a proud pose, with a playful glint in his eyes.
The questioning continued until the very end, and the atmosphere was quite pleasant.
Remembering the famous director's film that Susan had mentioned, Chen Zhenzhu asked, "Could you tell me about your meeting with the director on the 30th? Is the date marked on the death threat letter related to this?"
"Director Zhang insisted that I audition. He said it was a big-budget historical drama called 'The Epang Palace.' I heard it had a huge budget—"
"Wait, it's called 'The Epang Palace'?" Shen Zhenzhu clearly remembered that in her previous life, Gai Duoduo played the lead role in this play, which made her an overnight sensation, winning her the Best Actress award at the Oscars and propelling her to the stage of a top-tier star.
“That’s right, it’s called ‘The Epang Palace.’ Actually, I was quite interested. He showed me the script, but my sister-in-law wasn’t optimistic. After all, Director Zhang takes one or two years to film a movie, so he has to turn down a lot of work. Actually, money doesn’t mean much to me anymore. I was thinking of not letting my brother and sister-in-law worry so much and having someone manage the daily work and finances. Many celebrities and large families in Hong Kong and Taiwan do this.”
If Ouyang Qing hadn't gone to film, Gai Duoduo would have been the ultimate beneficiary of the show.
Seeing that Chen Zhenzhu was deep in thought, Ouyang Qing did not interrupt her. He took a sip of red wine and looked at her with a smile.
"These are roughly the questions." After asking a few questions, Shen Zhenzhu decided to conduct a thorough investigation of Gai Duoduo.
"I'm going to sleep now. I need to prepare for the publicity event when I wake up." Ouyang Qing went to the sink to wash his cup, then went to the cabinet and opened it. Shen Zhenzhu saw a bottle of sleeping pills inside.
Noticing Shen Zhenzhu's gaze, Ouyang Qing didn't pay it any mind. After putting the cup down and closing the cabinet, he turned to Shen Zhenzhu and said, "If you want to know, you can ask me yourself, and I will tell you the truth. Let the outside noise go."
Shen Zhenzhu followed her for a couple of steps, then thought for a moment and reminded her, "Media influence is very important. I don't want to hide anything from you. Before we talked today, even if we had met once, I would have doubted whether you were really as bad-natured as the gossip magazines said. Those who haven't had the chance to meet you are easily swayed by the media, now and even more so in the future. To have a good reputation, you not only need to be strict with yourself, but also control the direction of public opinion."
Ouyang Qing nodded thoughtfully and said, "Public opinion... I originally thought that a person with a clear conscience has nothing to fear, but now that you mention it, I should indeed pay attention to it."
Shen Zhenzhu said, "I am an outsider and do not know the situation inside. I am just reminding you from an outsider's perspective. Please forgive me if I have been too forward."
"I know you're doing this for my own good." Ouyang Qing pinched Shen Zhenzhu's ponytail again. "Thank you, Section Chief Shen. You're really amazing. Okay, you should go and rest too. Keeping your skin in good condition makes you look beautiful."
“Okay, I’ll be right next door,” Chen Zhenzhu said.
As Ouyang Qing was about to return to his bedroom, Chen Zhenzhu suddenly called out to her, "Have many people around you said 'it's for your own good'?"
Ouyang Qing said doubtfully, "Of course. My brother and sister-in-law, my makeup team, and all the staff are there to 'do what's best for me.'"
“That’s true.” Chen Zhenzhu didn’t ask any more questions.
Lu Ye walked to the door and said with a smile, "I can't get a word in edgewise."
After leaving Ouyang Qing's room, Chen Zhenzhu asked the operative next to her, "Have you found the people from the florist?"
The agent said, "We found it. The flower shop is run by a middle-aged couple, and their son delivered the flowers. All three of them are certain that there were no cards or letters in the flowers."
“The flower shop has arranged for someone to monitor the situation,” Shen Zhenzhu said.
"yes."
After the operative left, Shen Zhenzhu and Lu Ye entered the room one after the other.
"If you're not sleepy, let's sort out the personnel together?" Chen Zhenzhu said, leaning back on the sofa.
This is a slightly smaller suite with two bedrooms, a study, and a large living room, enough for the operators to take turns working and resting.
“Okay,” Lu Ye said.
With their eyelids heavy with fatigue, Shen Zhenzhu and Lu Ye screened the people present when they discovered the five threatening letters.
After the screening, Chen Zhenzhu said in bewilderment, "Why aren't they all people I know?"
Ouyang Aihua, Shao Li, Gai Duoduo, and Susan are one thing, but there are also several other people who have frequently appeared around Ouyang Qing in the past two days. Either they were there when he wasn't, or they were there when he wasn't. In short, it's impossible to find anyone who was present when all five threatening letters were sent.
"Could it be that we're going in the wrong direction?" Shen Zhenzhu scratched her head.
Ring ring—
Ring ring.
Shen Zhenzhu's old mobile phone rang. Yes, she had completely "inherited" Gu Yanzheng's old mobile phone.
"Hello?"
"Sister Pearl, we've checked the threatening letter, and we didn't find any fingerprints, human hair, saliva, or other traces," Lu Xiaobao said on the other end of the phone.
"Okay, thank you."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Zhenzhu slumped onto the sofa and ordered Lu Ye, "Brother Ye, have the fingerprints been collected?"
"Do I need to remind you?" Lu Ye said, "You already collected the fingerprints and sent them to the team when you talked to Gai Duoduo yesterday. See if you can get them through the fingerprint system."
Chen Zhenzhu was a little sleepy and mumbled, "Check Gai Duoduo properly."
Lu Ye asked, puzzled, "What's wrong with her? What's your basis for this?"
It's impossible for Shen Zhenzhu to have become an international film queen by "picking up a bargain" in her past life; such a thing as a crown falling from the sky is impossible.
She put it simply: "There's always this feeling that something's wrong with her."
Lu Ye frowned and thought for a moment, but didn't notice anything wrong with Gai Duoduo: "She had an alibi when she sent the third and fourth threatening letters, and she was so anxious for Sister Qing, I don't think that's the case."
"Just listen to me, we're going to investigate."
"Alright, I'll do as you say." Lu Ye walked to the landline, picked up the phone, and started making arrangements.
Shen Zhenzhu gave him a few more instructions, then fell asleep on the sofa without even taking off her clothes.
In her dream, she saw the news from her previous life again.

"I Solve Major Cases by Interrogating Ghosts" - A Period Crime Investigation
A "connected" newcomer, Chu Yang, was parachuted into the criminal investigation team. He was always sleepy during the day and exuded the aura of a typical working-class slave. His biggest career aspiration was to be transferred to the archives department to coast along.
Can a scoundrel like that solve a case?
He not only solved the case but also cracked several long-standing cold cases, quickly becoming a crime-solving icon for the municipal police bureau.
When others asked her how she solved it?
How can we break this?
The three moves of a modern-day King Yama: directly question the deceased, check the Book of Life and Death, and summon a "witness ghost".
She activated "full map view" and played "fog of war" with them.
In order to modernize the underworld, he went to the human world to learn from civil servants. During the day, he worked hard as a public servant, persuading the toiling masses to calm their minds.
At night, they throw the "troublemaker" into the oil pot.
A criminal executed during the day goes to the underworld to appeal for justice. Looking up, he sees sitting there—isn't that the very police officer who brought him to the execution ground?! The net of justice is vast and its meshes are fine, yet nothing escapes it; the wicked and the wicked will all receive their due punishment.
Was the chain of evidence at the crime scene broken? Was the suspect's acting flawless? Was the killer completely inconspicuous?
That night in the Hall of Hell, she looked at the trembling souls of the dead kneeling below and said coldly: Tell me, who killed you?
The departed soul trembled slightly as it uttered a name.
The next day, she approached the serial killer with the perfect alibi at the criminal investigation team, leaned down and whispered, "He asked me to give you his regards."
The truth has nowhere to hide, and the dark circles under the eyes of the 007-shift corporate slaves are getting heavier and heavier.
Unexpectedly, a Taoist priest from a family line discovered his secret and began chasing after Yama, the King of Hell, every day.
Chu Yang, who was trying hard to hide her secrets, suddenly discovered one day that the Municipal Public Security Bureau had a new criminal investigation consultant.
Chu Yang questioned the bureau chief: How can you let monsters and demons serve as consultants?
Director: I can even make the King of Hell my captain, so what's wrong with making a Taoist priest my advisor?
Based primarily on real-world crime-solving, but includes some original settings. Absolutely fictional; please do not attempt to connect it to real-life events. 2025/9/13
