"Banned drug powder."
These four simple words reveal the lethality of this drug.
Qin Xuan knew about this medicine because of his father's job. He clearly remembered that when he was very young, he found the powder in his father's document bag in his study. His father was very angry and gave him a severe beating and warned him never to go into the study again.
Ye Zhizhou pursed his lips. It was obvious that Yan Bing had brought the powder in. Yan Bing had come to explain on the surface, but actually it was for this reason.
"If someone is found to be possessing this powder, what are the possible sentences?"
Ye Zhizhou looked at Qin Xuan with a serious expression.
"At this dosage, it will take at least three years."
Qin Xuan unconsciously gripped the banned drug powder in his hand tighter.
Ye Zhizhou sat back down in his chair, lost in thought.
"Once we find out that you're a temporary worker, this has nothing to do with you."
Seeing her worried expression, Qin Xuan assumed she was afraid of being framed and arrested.
Ye Zhizhou bit his thumbnail and looked at him.
"It's better to let him slip up on his own."
Qin Xuan's eyes lit up. "A counter-strategy?"
Ye Zhizhou nodded. Since the other party didn't want her to have an easy time, she had to return the favor with a gift.
The following day, early in the morning, a large group of people dressed in police uniforms flooded into the film studio, causing a huge uproar.
Almost all the staff at the film studio came to watch the show.
A case that warrants police intervention must be a major one.
"What happened? Which film crew is it?"
"Is it the 'White Wolf' crew again? Is it because they weren't sincere enough in their prayers before filming started that things keep going wrong?"
"Don't talk nonsense, stay calm and observe the situation, you never know when you might be wrong."
Director Chen had just put on his coat when he came out to see what had happened. When he saw that it was the police, he was completely bewildered.
"You are the director of this film. We have received a report that the actors in your crew are suspected of possessing illegal drug powder. Please cooperate with the investigation."
The police station leader was an older officer, clearly at the captain level or higher.
Director Chen dared not delay, "Possessing illegal drug powder is a serious crime. Please search at your discretion, officers."
After greeting Director Chen, the veteran police officer led his men to search the hotel, mainly targeting the crew of the film "White Wolf".
Yan Bing stood at the door, letting the police go in to check. Her only concern now was whether the powder in Ye Zhizhou's room would be discovered.
She didn't know the man's intentions until the police arrived. She realized that the man wanted to use the police to destroy Ye Zhizhou.
That's really too ruthless.
If it were an ordinary person, they could still go back to work after being sentenced to a few years, but given Ye Zhizhou's status and position, she can basically forget about ever stepping into the entertainment industry again, and her family might even be affected.
Yan Bing was terrified; she knew she would have to be more careful in the future to be aware of anyone around her who might harbor resentment towards her.
After searching the entire area, only Ye Zhizhou's room remained unsearched, as Ye Zhizhou was still unconscious and the police officers couldn't enter.
They knocked on the door for a long time, and just as they were about to ask the hotel manager to open it, the door opened.
"What can I do for you, officers?"
Ye Zhizhou was wearing pajamas and hadn't washed his face, looking like he had just woken up, even though it was only nine o'clock in the morning.
The old police officer looked displeased. They had made such a commotion, yet the young girl had stayed in the room for so long without coming out. It was hard to say whether she was hiding something.
"Someone has reported that someone in your crew is possessing prohibited drugs. We need to conduct a search, so please cooperate."
Xu Jingchen noticed that Qin Xuan was not there, and thought that his time to be a hero had finally come. He resolutely stood in front of the police and puffed out his chest.
"You are not allowed to search Xiaozhou's room; she is the real victim."
The veteran officer wasn't angry. Instead, he asked, "What does this mean? Has anything else happened on set?"
Director Chen frantically tried to signal Xu Jingchen with his eyes, but Xu Jingchen's eyes flickered. "No, nothing. Xiaozhou is young, how could she possibly hide something like that? There must be some misunderstanding."
Ye Zhizhou: ...
I'm not afraid of god-like opponents, but I'm afraid of pig-like teammates.
“I am a law-abiding citizen. Since the police officers want to investigate, I will definitely cooperate. Xu Jingchen, please move aside.”
The old policeman glanced at Xu Jingchen, who slowly moved away.
Even though he was worried about Ye Zhizhou, he knew he couldn't interfere with official business. But it didn't matter; he had already shown his face to Ye Zhizhou, and Ye Zhizhou would definitely remember his courage at that moment.
Ye Zhizhou readily let the police into the room, showing no sign of panic whatsoever.
Yan Bing was already imagining what it would be like if Ye Zhizhou were found to be possessing illegal drugs. She suddenly felt a little sorry for Ye Zhizhou.
However, the police searched the place but found nothing. The old officer looked disappointed, having thought he could solve a big case, only to find that he had worked for nothing.
"Officer, may I go back to my room and sleep now?"
Ye Zhizhou watched the old police officer who was about to leave and then added insult to injury.
The old police officer said awkwardly, "Sorry to bother you, you can go back to sleep."
Yan Bing watched in disbelief as the police arrived in such a large force, only to leave empty-handed.
"Sister Yan Bing, aren't you going back to rest? It's such a good opportunity, take advantage of these few days when you don't have to film to get some rest."
Ye Zhizhou yawned as he spoke, and Yan Bing's expression became slightly unnatural.
"I'll go back now."
She turned around and went back to her room, closed the door, took out her phone and called the man, only to find that it was switched off.
At the same time, Ye Zhizhou received a WeChat message from Qin Xuan.
"We've caught the person. Come to the back gate of the film studio."
Ye Zhizhou smiled and said, "The net is closed!"
The back gate of the film studio wasn't far; it only took a few minutes to walk there. Ye Zhizhou suddenly felt a bit expectant. This person targeting her should be considered a minor villain, right? With such a large-scale operation, it wouldn't make sense for the character to be too ordinary.
[System: Reminding the host that this person has appeared before.]
Suddenly, the system spoke again, and Ye Zhizhou was still a little unaccustomed to it.
Since it was a character that had already appeared, there was nothing to see, and Ye Zhizhou suddenly lost his sense of anticipation.
There weren't many people at the back gate of the film studio, but there were quite a few vendors.
Ye Zhizhou slowly walked to the door and immediately saw Qin Xuan holding a man's hand, locking his hand behind his back, making him unable to move.
The person was indeed wearing a mask, just as the person in charge had described.
However, looking into his eyes, they seemed somewhat familiar, but Ye Zhizhou couldn't quite place them.
"Qin Xuan, let's invite him upstairs to discuss this further."
There were many people downstairs, and she didn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble.
Before long, the three arrived at the hotel safely. To avoid any further complications, Qin Xuan amicably gagged the temporary worker with a rag.
Ye Zhizhou tore off his mask, and when he saw that face, all he wanted to do was curse.
