After talking to the assistant, Jian Jing re-examined the case.

Now, the cause of Shao Meng's death is very obvious: he died of shock, and the stimulus should be the hallucination caused by meningitis. Going back further, why did he get meningitis?

Meningitis is generally caused by viruses, bacteria or other microorganisms.

At this point, it is actually close to an accident. The only thing that is of concern is actress Tao. She and Shao Meng fell ill one after another, and also had hallucinations. Is there a connection between the two?

If there is, it will be related to "The Mystery of the Song Dynasty" ten years ago.

According to Xie Wei, Shao Meng and Tao Tao met and fell in love because of an accident ten years ago. And "The Mystery of the Song Dynasty" ten years ago had several accidents.

After that, Xie Wei was unable to recover, but Shao Meng and Tao Tao became very popular.

Xue Xiaosheng mentioned the "little ghost", and Shao Meng's assistant directly pointed out the key.

Borrowing life.

Xie Wei mentioned "life" several times. He said that many people said that he had a good life and was destined to be famous.

Could he have known what Shao Meng had done?

Jian Jing thought for a long time and called Taoist He again, asking: "Master, do you know about borrowing life?" Taoist

He asked: "Which life? A living person borrowing a living person, or a living person borrowing a dead person?"

"There was a person who should have been famous all over the country, but was snatched away by another person. He was not famous, but the person who borrowed it was famous." Jian Jing didn't believe this, and her tone was inevitably a little hesitant.

Unexpectedly, Taoist He was silent for a moment, and asked in a low voice: "Where did you hear this?"

Her eyelids jumped: "Is this true?"

"Life is a very suspenseful thing. You can't prove that it exists, nor can you prove that it doesn't exist. It can also be explained from a psychological point of view. It depends on whether you believe it or not."

"Do you believe it, Taoist?"

Taoist He thought for a while, but said: "I know similar examples."

Jian Jing became interested and asked him to explain it in detail.

"Actually, what you are talking about is not called borrowing life, but borrowing luck. There is a saying that to deceive the heavens and change luck, to kill someone and take his life. Borrowing life means giving one person's life span to another person. The person whose life span is borrowed will lose his life span, so he will die, right?" Taoist He, as a professional, explained clearly, "Borrowing luck is different. It means stealing a person's luck. For example, someone originally had the luck to make a fortune, and should have been a billionaire, but his luck was borrowed, so he can't make a fortune anymore."

Jian Jing: Is it true?

Taoist He added, "However, whether you borrow a life or luck, it is not your own thing, so it is impossible to transfer it exactly. You stole ten years of someone's life, and when it comes to yourself, you will only have one or two years. When the time comes, you will have to give it all back, and you will also have to pay the price."

This is similar to what the assistant said.

Jian Jing pondered, "Then, what characteristics would people who have done this have?"

"Generally speaking, there are taboos, but the taboos are different for different people." After answering, Taoist He couldn't help but be curious, "Why, you encountered another kind of evil magic?" Jian

Jing smiled bitterly, "I guess so. Taoist, I'll send you a picture, see if you recognize it."

She sent the tattoo on Ms. Tao.

Taoist He looked at it quickly and said with a smile, "Don't you recognize this bird? This is a red-footed falcon. The dove in the 'dove occupying the magpie's nest' we say is this thing."

Dove occupying the magpie's nest? This is almost a slap in the face.

Jian Jing asked, "People with this tattoo are the ones who borrowed someone else's luck?"

"That's possible." Taoist He pondered for a long time and muttered, "The style of this tattoo looks familiar. I seem to have seen it somewhere."

Jian Jing: "Where?!"

Taoist He: "I don't remember."

She: "..."

At least it can be confirmed that actress Tao, like Shao Meng, is also a person who borrowed luck.

Who did she borrow from?

Considering the special time limit of ten years and the low probability of becoming popular, the spearhead has to be directed at the same person.

If Shao Meng and Tao Tao both borrowed Xie Wei's luck, they are already first-line stars now, and Xie Wei himself will double his popularity. How popular would he be?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little sympathy.

——No, no, that's not right.

Feudal superstition is not good.

Jian Jing knocked her head to knock away the sympathy and continued to think about the case.

Borrowing someone's life cannot clear the suspicion of Shao Meng's murder. On the contrary, this became Xie Wei's motive for murder.

If he knew that Shao Meng and Tao Tao had done such a thing, he would most likely transfer his years of frustration to them, feel resentment, and intend to take revenge.

This makes perfect sense.

The problem lies in the method and process of murder.

Jian Jing pondered for a long time, but still had no clue.

At night, Liang Yi, who had returned, told her the latest news.

Tao Tao's examination report came out. She did not have meningitis, but a mental problem.

As early as half a year ago, she suffered from depression due to the leak of photos. The agency secretly sent her for treatment, and she improved after a few months. But this time, for some reason, her condition worsened again. She was suspected of schizophrenia and needed to be observed.

Jian Jing asked: "Can we learn something from her?"

Liang Yi: "No."

The clues were broken.

Jian Jing had to start to wonder, was Tao's sudden illness a victim after Shao Meng, or was it just a coincidence?

"Teacher Jingjing." Jiang Baiyan came over with the cat in his arms, "Why don't you take a rest?"

Jian Jing tilted her head and fell on the table, and said irritably, "No clues."

Jiang Baiyan said, "Is there anything I can help with?"

She sighed, "I want to know whether Shao Meng died in an accident or was he murdered."

Jiang Baiyan: "Uh..."

"Otherwise, Tao Tao's sudden illness, is it a coincidence, or is she the victim after Shao Meng?" Jian Jing pondered, "Or vice versa, Tao Tao is the first victim. Who leaked her photos?"

Jiang Baiyan knew this: "It was her previous agent. The two had a quarrel and leaked her photos to the paparazzi."

Jian Jing immediately searched for the agent. This was the third agency that Ms. Tao had changed in the past ten years. The agent was a marketing tycoon after the rise of the Internet, and had nothing to do with Xie Wei.

What's going on? Is it really time for bad luck to start?

"System, metaphysics should stop issuing tasks." She muttered to herself.

[System: Please do your best to complete the task. If you have any difficulties, you can use the card drawing system. This system is dedicated to serving you.]

Jian Jing sighed again. If you can avoid drawing cards, don't draw cards. If you draw cards when you encounter problems, the joy of solving puzzles will be greatly reduced.

Seeing that she was still frowning, Jiang Baiyan recalled for a moment and hesitated, "Last night, I saw Zhang Xi talking to Sister Tao."

"When?" Jian Jing sat up straight immediately.

"That evening." He lowered his voice, "Zhang Xi said she had something to say, and took Sister Tao to the hot spring."

Jian Jing supported her chin and thought for a while, then suddenly stood up: "Thank you, I have something else to do, good night."

Jiang Baiyan reminded her that since there was no breakthrough in Xie Wei and Tao Tao, it would be better to try Zhang Xi. But her mouth was very tight, and she had to think carefully about how to pry it open.

Miss Zhang Hongchun's name is Zhang Xi. After graduating from technical secondary school, she entered a hospital as a nurse. At that time, she became the hospital belle because of her beautiful appearance, and the director's son was pursuing her.

If there hadn't been an accident in "The Mystery of the Great Song Dynasty", she might have chosen one among the many suitors and become a leisurely and stable rich wife, or she might have switched to the medical beauty circle and started her own business to become a rich woman.

But fate is so magical. She chose to enter the entertainment industry and became an actor.

Unfortunately, after seven or eight years in the industry, she is still tepid.

Will good luck come to her this time?

Zhang Xi tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

She was startled: "Who?"

"Ms. Zhang, it's me." Jian Jing said.

Zhang Xi hesitated. Before the case happened, she thought Jian Jing was just a simple young girl, not worldly, a little aloof, but easy to coax, but after the case happened, she changed, sharp and persistent, which made people scared.

"Can you open the door?" asked the person outside the door.

Zhang Xi took a deep breath, knowing that she couldn't avoid it, otherwise it would be more troublesome.

"Miss Jian." She opened the door and asked in confusion, "It's so late, what's the matter with you?"

Jian Jing smiled kindly: "I want to take a hot spring bath, but it's so late, I'm afraid to go alone, can you go with me?"

It turned out that it was just a hot spring bath, Zhang Xi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, of course he would not miss the opportunity to please her, and said softly: "No problem, I'll be there right away."

She changed into a swimsuit, wrapped in a bathrobe and went to the hot spring.

Jian Jing was already in the pool, shaking the ice beer in her hand at her: "Would you like some?"

"Okay." Zhang Xi was used to accompanying people to drink, so she naturally agreed.

The warm pool water and the cool beer slowly let down her defenses.

Jian Jing said, "This time the day before yesterday, next door was still very lively, but now..." She shook her head and sighed, "Shao Meng has only been famous for a few months, and it turned out like this."

Zhang Xi continued her words, "Yes, things are unpredictable, who could have thought of it."

"I don't know what to do with Devil May Cry 2." Jian Jing's skill in setting traps is getting more and more proficient. "If the actor is changed, the audience may not accept it."

Zhang Xi bit her lower lip and suddenly said, "Xie Wei is better than Shao Meng. If it's him, there will be no problem."

Jian Jing pretended to be "uninformed about your entertainment industry" and asked, "But I heard that TV dramas nowadays don't pay much attention to acting skills. It's more useful for actors to have a large flow. Xie Wei...is not popular."

If it was a case, Zhang Xi would definitely be wary, but it involves a circle that she is familiar with but the other party is not, so she naturally feels more secure.

She also wanted to get closer to the two sides, and half-concealedly said, "Xie Wei is just unlucky. If he can play in Devil May Cry 2, he will definitely be more popular than now."

Jian Jing looked unconvinced.

"I heard, I heard people say that Xie Wei is destined to be very famous." Zhang Xi said, "It's just that he didn't become famous because of the villains in the past. All he lacked was an opportunity."

She tried her best to persuade him, "Teacher Jian, you also saw Xie Wei's performance today. I have worked with many actors, and he is definitely one of the best actors I have ever seen."

Jian Jing sighed, and was about to say something but stopped.

After a long time, he avoided the topic and said, "Ms. Zhang, let's not talk about him. Let's talk about you. How did you know that Boss Wan? He said such excessive words that day, are you... okay?"

Zhang Xi was stunned for a moment and said lightly, "I'm used to it."

"He doesn't respect you at all." Jian Jing sighed like an ordinary friend, "What's good about having a boyfriend like this? You are so beautiful, are you afraid that you won't find the next one? How long have you known each other?"

The previous words confused Zhang Xi, and she replied, "Ten years."

Just like what was said in the explosive post. Jian Jing calmed down and pretended to be curious: "Ten years? So you knew him when you were a nurse?"

"Yes, we have feelings for each other." Zhang Xi subconsciously avoided the topic, "He has always supported me and given me many opportunities, but unfortunately my luck is not very good." After

she finished speaking, she tentatively asked: "Teacher Jian, I want to play Mrs. He, do you think I can do it?"
