Chapter 243 Xiaoxia Security Guard
"The victim was buying barbecue at a street stall when he was spotted and followed by the killer."
Luo Xiao said with regret: "The murderer noticed that her door was ajar, so he took advantage of her going to the bathroom, sneaked into her home, hid, and then..."
"Luckily, I met a delivery man like you who has a golden finger, otherwise I would be in great danger."
Upon hearing this, Xia Lili couldn't help but think of her experience before she moved, and felt a chill in her heart.
Luo Xiao continued, "Also, looking at your hallucination report, the murderer disguised himself as the victim after killing him, sending messages and tricking Ms. Tao Lu from next door into coming over and killing her. It's really scary!"
Xia Lili was also frightened. If this happened to her, and she didn't have the ability to foresee bad luck, a greedy girl like her would definitely run to the next door to get some barbecue.
After all, the police investigated the chat records between the victim's neighbor sister and Tao Lu.
The neighbor's sister often feeds Tao Lu, and no one would have thought that this message was a "fishing" message from the murderer.
Xia Lili logged into her delivery person backend and found that she had received a 50 yuan tip.
She smiled knowingly, realizing it was Tao Lu, the customer who delivered the takeaway yesterday, giving her money as a thank you for catching mice...
Wait, Xia Lili looked embarrassed.
Where did she put the cooler bag containing the mouse when she was in a hurry to save people and catch the murderer?
Xia Lili shook her head and sent a message to Tao Lu in the background: [Sorry, Ms. Tao, please contact me if you need any help catching mice in the future.]
The case has come to an end for now.
In the afternoon, Xia Lili went to the cruise ship at sea to familiarize herself with the environment and participate in security training.
She spent the next half month very fulfilling, attending classes, receiving training, and lying down.
During this period, Xia Lili's apartment doorbell rang almost every day.
Bouquets of blue hydrangeas, limited edition co-branded gift boxes, new season handbags...the express deliveries filled the entrance.
She squatted on the ground and opened one of the boxes with an exquisite ribbon. Inside was a bottle of perfume and a card with the logo of a high-end luxury brand printed on it.
It is the latest brand endorsed by Jiang Yun.
Jiang Yun had previously messaged her: [The brand insisted on sending me a gift, and my dorm is too full! I don’t have any family to receive it for me anyway, so I’ve already filled in your address~]
Xia Lili could almost imagine him scratching his head and saying to the brand staff, "Just fill in the address with my friend's."
Seven days before the dinner, Xia Lili received a video call request from Jiang Yun.
The phone screen lit up, and the video call prompt sound jumped happily.
As soon as Xia Lili answered the call, she was dazzled by the picture on the screen.
Jiang Yun stood under the light of the swimming pool's locker room, with water dripping from the ends of her hair. The water droplets slid down her neck to her collarbone and finally sank into the collar of her loose white T-shirt.
He casually rubbed his hair with a towel, his smile more dazzling than the ripples in the swimming pool.
"Lili!" Jiang Yun leaned close to the camera, with tiny water droplets hanging on his eyelashes.
"I'm going back to Yangcheng next week to attend an event. Are you free next Thursday or Saturday?"
Before she could answer, he added impatiently, "Don't we have an annual pass to Ocean Park? I heard there are new baby penguins. Let's go see them together?"
Xia Lili looked at the face on the screen that was full of anticipation - Jiang Yun's eyes were always sparkling, just like the golden retriever in the neighbor's house when she was a child, holding a frisbee and waiting for her to play.
"These two days..." She deliberately frowned, revealing an embarrassment. "I'm afraid it's not possible. My work schedule is full."
Sure enough, Jiang Yun wilted instantly.
It was rare to see him with droopy eyelids, because during this period he won gold medals in all the swimming competitions he participated in.
His commercial value has also skyrocketed. Ming Zhou, who is responsible for his business brokerage, has been very proud of himself these days and directly calls Xia Lili his benefactor.
After all, it had only been a short time since Jiang Yun and Xia Xubai, two "potential stocks", had signed contracts! This investment was too immediate!
"Okay..." Jiang Yun muttered, then suddenly cheered up, "When I retire, I'll play with you every day!"
"Hey!" Xia Lili couldn't help laughing. "You're only 23, and you're talking about retiring!"
"Let's go together next time when I'm free!"
Xia Lili plans to give Jiang Yun a surprise on the day of the fashion dinner.
Time flies and the day of the fashion dinner arrives.
As dusk falls, Yangcheng Emerald Wharf is already dazzling.
The pure white giant cruise ship looks like a castle on the sea, adorned with sparkling lights all over.
The champagne tower on the deck reflected golden light, illuminating the entire dock like daylight.
The dock was already surrounded by people.
Behind the media area with cameras and long guns are enthusiastic fans holding colorful light boards and banners.
They were looking forward to it, and every time a black nanny car drove into the cordon, a thunderous scream would erupt.
A large red carpet was rolled out from the gangway all the way to the dock entrance.
This is the highlight of the fashion dinner and the passage for the star red carpet show.
Although the event had not officially started yet, the constant shouting had already scared the seagulls away.
The sea breeze, carrying fragrance and cheers, spread the luxurious atmosphere of this fashion feast to every corner of the pier.
At the entrance of the cruise ship in the night, Xia Lili was particularly eye-catching in her black uniform.
She was wearing sunglasses and a mask, standing between two tall security guards. She looked particularly petite against a group of burly men who were nearly 1.9 meters tall.
"Look at that female security guard!" fans outside the fence whispered, "Why is she standing in the center? Could she be the person in charge?"
"It must be some rich girl here chasing stars at public expense!" A girl with a ponytail curled her lips. "It's great to be rich. You can pretend to be a security guard and get close to celebrities."
Xia Lili listened to the discussion less than two meters behind her, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly under her mask.
She earns 10,000 yuan an hour standing guard here, and can get close to celebrities that these fans can't get to, and admire the handsome men and beautiful women. She even finds these sour complaints particularly pleasant to the ear.
At 6:30 p.m., the red carpet officially began. Suddenly, flashbulbs rained down like a torrential downpour, their clacking sounds transforming the pier into a sea of light.
Xia Lili stood by the cordon, her eyes behind her sunglasses calmly scanning every star that passed by.
When she made eye contact with the screen darlings, she couldn't help but sigh inwardly that these faces, which were already stunning enough in front of the camera, were even more beautiful in real life.
So far, nothing has happened to the twenty or so artists who have come over.
Xia Lili began to feel bored and aesthetically fatigued.
"Now, let us welcome this year's most popular TV actress—Deng Hanyan!"
Xia Lili's eyes immediately lit up when she heard the host read out the guest's name.
She has recently been quite fond of the actress's new drama.
Deng Hanyan has become very popular recently and has been widely discussed.
The scene immediately erupted in enthusiastic cheers from fans.
Xia Lili also looked towards the other end of the red carpet curiously.
