The correct way to wash a female ghost's hair
There are many sad aspects to being a paparazzi imposter.
For example, the act of staking out a location.
It's certainly a good thing that Li Xuran just returned, but the real action is only halfway done.
We have to wait for her and that mysterious man to leave.
This process could take a minute, an hour, or even a whole night...
Nan Yehe was filled with regret. After all, she had to go to work the next day, and it was already almost 10:30. In another hour or two, she felt that her hard-won mental state was about to collapse again.
She's starting to take the escape seriously now. At this speed, there's a 70% chance she won't be caught by those two.
However, you have to wear a hood while running, otherwise it would be bad if you were dragged into the news as a side story.
Although it's embarrassing, it's better than being secretly mocked by those subordinates tomorrow.
After a few minutes, she figured out the pros and cons, got off the stool, put down her DSLR camera, and turned to leave.
But as soon as she turned around, her eyes met those of a strange man.
Judging from his clothes, it was the same man with the binoculars from earlier. He looked younger than I had imagined, probably in his early twenties. He was dressed very appropriately and had a youthful air about him, unlike a paparazzi who had been lying in wait for a long time.
At that moment, the other person was standing at the door, looking at her sharply.
Nan Yehe felt a sense of impending downfall.
She thought she might be silenced by these two, but luckily... she had brought a bag with her phone and bank cards. If all else failed, she could ask Nan Fengting to find a way to bail her out.
Just as Nan Yehe was already thinking about what to do after going bankrupt, the other party finally spoke.
Who are you?
Nan Yehe remained calm. "She was filling in for me. She had a mishap on the way and couldn't make it, but she didn't want to lose her job, so she tried to get away with it by asking me to cover it up."
Sometimes, people need to hone their acting skills, no matter what profession they're in.
"Don't want to lose your job?" But the man's gaze became even more suspicious. "You really know her?"
Nan Yehe's expression remained unchanged, but she had actually begun to brainstorm. She hadn't expected that such a perfect answer could still slip up.
"Tell me, whose shift were you covering for?" The other person gave Nan Yehe a smile that seemed familiar, as if they had already confirmed something.
“Gao Ling.” Nan Yehe’s gaze was calm, even somewhat provocative. “I’m her friend. Gao Ling asked me to cover her shift. Although she’s usually quite playful, she still cherishes this job.”
After saying that, she paused for a moment, hesitated, but still continued, "Don't worry, my name is Nan Yehe, I'm not in this circle, these things aren't worth me publicizing."
Upon hearing this, the man opposite her finally withdrew his wary gaze and said to her in a relatively friendly manner, "Hello, my name is Tang Xuan. She should have explained this matter to you. I hope you can cooperate with our work."
Nan Yehe gave a stiff smile and nodded.
Tang Xuan nodded and turned to leave.
Nan Yehe breathed a sigh of relief, looking at Xu Jiu who was sitting on the sink with a smile.
"Look, I saved you again." Xu Jiu seemed to be in pretty good condition.
Nan Yehe closed the bathroom door, crossed his arms, and looked at her.
I should at least give an explanation this time.
That Ding Jingyi, this Li Xuran, and all these inexplicable things.
"I won't tell you unless you ask me." Xu Jiu made a smug face.
Nan Yehe felt that she hadn't lost her memory at all, and was completely lying to herself.
She may have genuinely lost her memory of the killer, but she must have lied about other things.
Alright, since she really wants her to ask, then she doesn't need to beat around the bush anymore.
What were you doing just now?
We've been there for quite a while, so it's impossible to just do some sightseeing.
Upon hearing this, Xu Jiu's eyebrows curved into a smile. "You know what, Ding Jingyi truly lives up to her reputation as a Best Actress winner. I just went to test her. First, I circled around her in a way that ordinary people couldn't see, and she acted perfectly normal, continuing to do her work as usual. Then, I used a way that she could see me, and guess what? She still acted perfectly normal! Like she couldn't see me at all."
As she spoke, she changed her appearance, her cheeks becoming covered in scars and blood flowing from her seven orifices. This appearance caught Nan Yehe off guard, causing her to take a step back.
"Look, I'm still walking around in front of her like this, and she doesn't react at all. Her acting skills are truly admirable." Xu Jiu praised Ding Jingyi's acting skills with great sincerity. "Why can't she see clearly and go with Chen Ni?"
The fact that Ding Jingyi was able to perform so deliberately shows that she could definitely see Xu Jiu, and that she really didn't want to have any direct contact with her.
Xu Jiu removed his狰狞 (zhengning, meaning ferocious or hideous) face. "If she really is just an innocent person with the ability to see ghosts, then she wouldn't need to be so nervous when she sees me, an old acquaintance. She could just shout that she's innocent, wouldn't that be enough?"
Nan Yehe coldly scoffed, "Perhaps they've seen it all before, that's why they act this way."
"Such low-probability events should not be taken as a reference." Xu Jiu ignored this provocation.
"In short, I need to tell Li Jiangui about Ding Jingyi's problem tomorrow. As for Officer Xu..." Xu Jiu glanced at the doorway, "I think these people have already investigated a lot of useful information."
These people? So they really aren't legitimate paparazzi.
So her previous idea was probably correct. Xu Jiu had no need to create such a paparazzi team. This was probably her studio before she was murdered. These people were all close to her, and some might even be her peers. After her incident, they all spontaneously investigated.
"What a touching colleague," Nan Yehe was about to remark when she suddenly heard Xu Jiu mutter to himself.
"Everyone wants to use the insurance premium as a bonus; people are still very ambitious..."
Nan Yehe felt that she must have been out of her mind to come up with something like "Touching China".
Just as she was about to ask more questions, there was a sudden knock on the bathroom door.
"They're ready. The living room lights are on again; they're probably about to come out."
"Okay," Nan Yehe reluctantly replied.
After everyone left, she stepped onto the stool again, glancing at Xu Jiu as if to signal her to come over as well.
"What does Li Xuran have to do with you?" Nan Yehe thought this might be a personal grudge.
Xu Jiu frowned and thought for a moment, then said uncertainly, "Could it be that incident from a few years ago? But that shouldn't be the case; she shouldn't know that it was us."
This statement is too ambiguous; Nan Yehe must ask for clarification.
“Hey, they’re out! You film first, I’ll explain when we get back.” Xu Jiu interrupted her question, looking at the camera.
Nan Yehe looked over and saw that Li Xuran had indeed come out. She was still holding the man's hand. She quickly snapped a picture as he gradually disappeared from her shooting range. After a while, Li Xuran returned alone. Then came the tedious process of going upstairs, turning on the lights, and turning them off.
"So thoughtful, even coming out to see someone off." Xu Jiu rested his chin on his hand, looking thoughtful. "And without any attempt to cover her face, it seems Li Xuran has actually been living a very free life these past few years."
instead?
This keyword is quite intriguing.
"Are you still packing? If you're done, hurry up and leave. We still need to go back and organize some documents today," Tang Xuan's voice rang out from outside the door.
"Okay," Nan Yehe replied to the outside business representative.
What should we do now? Nan Yehe gestured to Xu Jiu with her eyes, signaling him to come up with a solution.
Xu Jiu shrugged. "What else can we do but take the opportunity to escape on the way?"
This idea actually coincided with her previous one.
The only thing I could do was run.
After taking a group photo with Nan Ye and finishing packing everything, she naturally said to Tang Xuan and the man who had led the way, "The car is still outside, so I'll go ahead first."
Tang Xuan didn't say anything, and the man who led the way was even less likely to react. Nan Yehe successfully escaped solo.
Only after rushing to his car did Nan Yehe truly feel alive.
I will never do anything that looks like something out of a movie again.
It's really tiring both physically and mentally.
She started her car and sped away from the scene.
Meanwhile, Tang and his companion put their things away, drove off, and prepared to meet up with Nan Yehe.
After leaving the residential area, they didn't see Nan Yehe's car. After walking a short distance, a familiar car was parked on the side of the road with its lights flashing, and a girl was waving at them.
High-level spirit?!
Tang Xuan felt a chill run down his spine, sensing that something was wrong.
People who shouldn't have come suddenly appeared here, while those who were supposed to meet up with us are nowhere to be found.
"Old Wang, stop the car. This is the person who should be here tonight." Tang Xuan frowned, his expression not good.
The man leading the way was also startled and immediately stopped the car.
"What's going on? I had work tonight, why hasn't anyone come to see me all this time?" Gao Ling walked over, looking a little annoyed. "I've been waiting here for ages and no one's come. I figured I'm already here, so I didn't dare leave. I just took some pictures of the cars that drove by. See if they're of any use."
The car that drove by...
Tang Xuan said somewhat helplessly, "Today's task is complete. By the way, are you late?"
Gao Ling thought she could get away with it if no one came, but she couldn't hide the fact that she had mistaken someone for someone else.
If Nan Yehe hadn't been the only car that met the requirements at that location, Lao Wang wouldn't have made such a big mistake.
“The road that went straight ahead was blocked. I was thinking of taking a shortcut, but I didn’t expect there to be roadworks over there.” Gao Ling was also annoyed and became serious. “Tang Xuan, please don’t fire me yet. I really, really didn’t come here just for fun.”
Let's not rush to explain; all three of them have issues today.
Tang Xuan's complexion wasn't very good, but he remembered that Nan Yehe had already told him the name. If it matched, everything could still be salvaged.
"Go back to the studio first, and we'll deal with you according to the rules later."
