Chapter 184: The inexplicable collapse
The launch conference of "Hidden Murderer" was quite successful. After the conference, major media outlets started issuing press releases.
How to say it?
The draft is still very hard.
In the evening, "Hidden Murderer" was released on Kunlang, Xingyao and Mili video websites at 8 o'clock on time.
I have to say that the expectations for this online drama are still quite high.
As a result, after the show started, many people started chatting while watching.
"I believe that those who came here for Luo Yuan will not let us down."
"I'm sick of watching all the online dramas about criminal investigations these days. What the hell are they?"
"Yes, most of them are just following the trend. Now I hope that "Hidden Murderer" can be a little better."
…
This is the influence of screenwriter Platinum. The leading actors of "The Hidden Murderer" are all considered powerful, but the expectations of many viewers for this web drama all come from Luo Yuan.
Platinum screenwriter, so terrifying!
"The Hidden Murderer" is updated according to the regular web drama schedule, with three episodes updated on the first day today.
The first episode is quite high-energy. It begins with a newlywed couple being killed in a wedding room. The woman is naked in the bedroom and the man is suffocated to death. The case looks cruel and bloody.
The entire Shi City was filled with an atmosphere of panic.
The police set up a special task force, and the team was led by Feng Hai, the captain of the Criminal Investigation Brigade. Feng Hai was a well-known crime-solving expert in Shi City, but in order to solve this case, he specially invited his good friend Zhou Miao, who was also a forensic doctor in Shi City.
Not only that, this time they also brought Xia Nan, a famous psychologist and professor at the Imperial Capital University.
Xia Nan is Feng Hai’s ex-girlfriend.
The first 30 minutes are quite gripping.
Because the story slowly unfolds with the murder of a newlywed couple.
The deceased were both 26 years old this year and were teachers at Shishi No. 1 Middle School. According to Feng Hai's visit, the two deceased were both popular and were the best teachers in the school every year, and were well-known among students.
More importantly, after investigation, everyone found that not only parents, students, and colleagues, but also school security guards, community property management, and even a stall owner at the school gate all praised the couple.
So, who killed him?
After investigation, the police found that revenge could be ruled out.
But robbing money is also wrong.
Because the money in the house was not touched. After all, they had just gotten married, and the betrothal money and some red envelope money were still there.
Seeking revenge and robbing money are both wrong.
Later, the forensic doctor concluded through autopsy that the female victim had been sexually assaulted before her death, and had been sexually assaulted by multiple people. In addition, the male victim had many wounds on his body, which were caused by torture. The female victim also had tooth marks on her body.
But how to say it?
The criminal has the ability to counter-detect. There were no other fingerprints on the female victim's body, but the teeth marks extracted from the female victim's body were from the male victim.
It can be said that no other DNA was extracted at all.
…
"It's platinum after all."
Yu Xiaoshu also said with admiration after seeing this.
The pace and expectations at the beginning are extremely high.
Criminal investigation dramas need to have expectations, especially in a murder case like this one, where what everyone wants to know most is who the murderer is.
As the first episode was about to end, Yu Xiaoshu suddenly wondered if he had made a mistake in his judgment.
Because this first episode is a completely masterpiece.
The pace is fast, the plot is clear, and the main line is solving the case without any other trivial matters. Even though Feng Hai and Xia Nan are ex-lovers, there are not many bloody things between the two of them.
All in all, this first episode is about solving a solid case.
Especially at the end of the first episode, the police re-checked the crime scene and finally found a fingerprint.
After comparison, the fingerprint turned out to be that of Li Haiyang, a senior high school student at Shishi No. 1 Middle School.
Li Haiyang, male, 18 years old, a student in Class 2, Grade 3, is a top student at Shishi No. 1 Middle School. With his adult college entrance examination score this year, he can definitely be admitted to Imperial Capital University.
Could such a good student be a murderer? ?
The first episode ends here.
It can be said that the essence of the fragment has been grasped.
Yu Xiaoshu also opened the second episode and started watching it. The police questioned Li Haiyang. At the time of the incident, Li Haiyang was doing homework at home. Although there were no witnesses, there were physical evidence.
There are surveillance cameras in his home.
At that point in time, he was actually at home.
Later, the police checked the community’s surveillance and found that Li Haiyang did not leave the community that night.
However, when the police were investigating Li Haiyang, they were surprised to find that Li Haiyang's father, Li Bo, was the suspect in another rape and murder case in Shishi 20 years ago.
20 years ago, a murder occurred in the Roland Community of Shishi City. The victim was a 19-year-old girl. Li Bo was a strong suspect at the time, but because there were no fingerprints of Li Bo at the scene and Li Bo had witnesses, Li Bo was eventually cleared of suspicion.
Coincidentally, Feng Hai had just joined the police force 20 years ago, and Feng Hai remembered that his master had always suspected Li Bo, and even when he retired, he told Feng Hai that Li Bo was the biggest suspect.
But there is no way.
According to the principle of presumption of innocence, Li Bo is innocent.
20 years ago it was Li Bo, 20 years later it was Li Haiyang, is there any connection between them???
As the investigation progressed, the real murderer surfaced.
And what surfaced was pretty hilarious.
Several students from Shishi No. 3 Middle School got drunk and boasted that they did it themselves.
Then the police quickly arrested the four students, and the four students told the truth when they were frightened.
The simple thing is, they want revenge.
It turned out that although they were not students of Shishi No. 1 Middle School, they lived in the same residential area as the deceased, and because their parents knew the deceased, the two deceased were occasionally given extra classes to help them.
"You think I need them to tutor me? I'm already annoyed enough at school, and now they're helping me with tutoring after school?"
This was a complaint from one of the students.
Not only this student, but the other three people actually had similar ideas.
They were not very afraid.
After all, they knew they wouldn't die.
At the same time, another person said with a smile: "You know what, Teacher Liu is really quite interesting, but her husband is such a coward. When he saw that we really wanted to kill him, he immediately begged for mercy."
After the interrogation, a female police officer in charge of the interrogation said angrily: "What a little beast!"
It’s not just the female police officer in the drama who is angry.
Even outside the show, many viewers' fists were clenched.
"Fuck, these are all little devils."
"Yes, it's definitely a little devil."
"This is so damn cruel. They want to kill their teacher just because he helps them with their lessons??"
"My fists are already hard. Even though I know this is a web drama, I'm still angry."
"Shit, there are definitely little devils like this in real life. They are born assholes."
…
This first case seemed to be solved easily.
Not only the characters in the play, but the audience also breathed a sigh of relief.
As the plot of the second episode progresses, Feng Hai asks his ex-girlfriend Xia Nan: "Do you feel something is wrong?"
Xiao Nan frowned and said, "No?"
"Yeah, that's not right."
Feng Hai said: "Don't you think this case was solved too easily?"
“Isn’t it good to be relaxed?”
Xiao Nan said: "And these people are indeed the murderers. They match up in every way."
“It’s correct, but I always feel like something is wrong?”
Feng Hai nodded gently and said, "Logically speaking, all the evidence matches, but I always feel like something is missing."
…
Before the end of the second episode, Feng Hai re-interrogated several students and asked directly: "Who taught you???"
As soon as these students were deceived, they said, "It's an uncle!"
…
Good job.
This is quite high energy.
It can be said that the first two episodes are full of suspense and expectations.
For example, what is the difference between the rape and murder cases 20 years ago and now? ?
For example, what happened to Li Haiyang's fingerprints?
For example, who taught them in the end?
After watching the first two episodes, everyone has already said that "Hidden Murderer" is a great drama.
However, the third episode came to a sudden halt.
It collapsed directly.
The first two episodes can be said to be about the evil nature of human beings, just like these students killing people. Such things also happen in reality. Some of them are antisocial personalities. There are many news reports about teenage children abusing and killing other children.
Human nature is evil, regardless of age.
This is quite acceptable.
However, what no one expected was that the third episode was the opposite, and the plot even seemed a bit broken.
It has suddenly turned from a crime-solving plot into a large-scale ethical drama.
For example, after investigation, it was found that the uncle who taught several students was the owner of a flower shop in the East District of Shi City. He did all these because he liked the female deceased. He was the female deceased's ex-boyfriend, and he wanted to take revenge on the female deceased.
The way to take revenge on the woman he loves is to find a few people to rape her? ?
Moreover, the sense of suspense created in the first two episodes is completely gone.
Everyone originally thought that Li Bo and Li Haiyang, father and son, would be of some use, but it turned out that they were of no use at all.
coincide.
Li Haiyang's fingerprints were left when he attended his teacher's wedding, but he forgot to clean them when several students were cleaning their fingerprints.
kindness.
Watch the first two episodes, great show.
Watch the third episode, it's a great show.
I have to say, netizens were all gobsmacked.
"Fuck, what the hell is this third episode???"
"They're actually talking about moral principles, saying that the flower shop owner did this out of love, and that he's also a philanthropist, and that he did this just because he was extreme?"
"Damn, I even suspect that the first two episodes and the third episode were written by the same person."
"Yes, I doubted it too."
…
There is endless discussion about this online.
Yu Xiaoshu himself was a little surprised.
Bad movies are acceptable.
When he saw Luo Yuan's interview, he felt that this movie was bound to be a failure.
But after watching the first two episodes, Yu Xiaoshu felt that he might have really misunderstood Luo Yuan. He also felt that the platinum writer's ability was indeed strong enough.
But he never expected that he would be completely convinced by the third episode.
He even wondered if this was a hack?
No, it was ghostwritten?
This is actually quite common in the screenwriter circle, but it should be impossible for a platinum screenwriter to find someone to ghostwrite, or to find a gun.
So what is going on? ?
Shaking his head slightly, Yu Xiaoshu stopped paying attention.
It is obvious that this "Hidden Murderer" has completely collapsed. The quality that was built up in the first two episodes was suddenly lowered by the third episode.
It looks like Yu Xiaoshu's five cents won.
This drama is an absolute flop.
It was difficult to pull it together even in the 4th episode.
The next day, "Hidden Murderer" unexpectedly became a hot topic, and what many people discussed most was the sense of disjunction in the first three episodes.
At this time, Liu Xiang spoke out on the social platform: "It seems that some people still don't know that the scripts for the first two episodes of "Hidden Murderer" were written by Li Ruhai and me."
Li Ruhai also reposted and said: "Originally this web drama could have become a phenomenal web drama, but now, it's such a pity."
The two people's voices immediately caused the discussion to soar again.
"Shit, now I remember, it is true. The screenwriters of "Hidden Murderer" were Liu Xiang and Li Ruhai at the beginning."
"That's not right. If you think so, then this platinum screenwriter Luo Yuan is not as good as Liu Xiang and Li Ruhai."
"Yeah, I think it's a little impossible."
…
Everyone started discussing it.
I was really looking forward to "Hidden Murderer", and the first two episodes did look good, but who could have thought that the third episode would fall apart like this.
The audience felt sorry.
The industry is confused.
Naturally, there was more discussion.
Baiqian Media, Yu Xiaoshu’s office.
"Teacher Yu, I have screened out all the qualified ones according to your requirements."
He Wu handed Yu Xiaoshu 50 resumes and said, "If you find any that you like, I'll have them come in for interviews."
"Okay, let me take a look."
Yu Xiaoshu nodded gently: "Thank you for your hard work."
"Teacher Yu, you're too polite. This is all my job."
He Wu shook his head slightly and said, "If there is nothing else, I will go and get busy first."
"Well, go ahead."
Yu Xiaoshu waved his hand and said.
After He Wu left, Yu Xiaoshu began to look at the 50-point resume.
These are the actors who came to interview for the three main roles in "The Hidden Corner".
50 points were selected from 500 resumes, which shows that He Wu's ability is quite good.
Yu Xiaoshu looked at it for an hour, threw away 10 points out of 50, and then called Yang Li over.
"You call these 40 people and ask them to come for interviews this afternoon. By the way, have you contacted the others?"
Yu Xiaoshu said to Yang Li.
“Everyone has been contacted.”
Yang Li said, "The others will start their interviews at 2pm."
"good."
Yu Xiaoshu nodded slightly.
Zhang Yi will be back this afternoon, and then Yu Xiaoshu and Zhang Yi can decide on the actors together.
