Chapter 318

She was a little surprised when she answered the video call. Generally speaking, Cheng Xue was not fond of video calls and was more likely to send messages if something came up.

Cheng Xue answered the call and immediately held up the screen for Chen Yaoyao to see: "Come on, say hi to your sister XiangWan?"

Chen Yaoyao\'s eyes lit up when she saw Nan XiangWan\'s face on the video. All the defenses in her heart collapsed with a rumble.

"Wow!!! Sister XiangWan!! Wuwuwu!!!"

She burst into loud sobs in the corridor, crying with her head tipped back, crying her heart out!

It was as if she wanted to let everything out.

Both Lang Hu and Cheng Xue were shocked, but they soon guessed the reason.

The little girl was young, but not that young. She had said earlier that she could understand the police bulletin, so she had obviously seen other information online as well.

So...

Chen Yaoyao had known about her brother\'s death for a long time!

And her parents thought she didn\'t know. The child had been playing along to accommodate her parents.

She was so sensible it made people distressed.

Nan XiangWan did not expect that as soon as she answered the video call, instead of seeing Cheng Xue, there was a bawling little girl.

She was stunned!

What happened? What was going on? Ah!

The crying was so sad it made Nan XiangWan feel terrible too.

Cheng Xue\'s purpose of the call was to gain Chen Yaoyao\'s trust. Live video was the best proof.

The next step would be guidance work and investigation.

-----------------

At this time, the Shanghai police had already started questioning several news media outlets and also tracked down the first Weibo account that had spread misleading information through the Weibo channel. They found the IP address of the other party.

The other party had added a location tag when posting, so it must have been from the Sci-Fi Town area.

But when they traced it further to investigate, that IP had already shown offline. The last record of activity was yesterday afternoon.

The branch office dispatched several plainclothes officers to the filming location in Sci-Fi Town to investigate.

But in the end, they only found an abandoned mobile phone in a trash can. The exterior of the phone had already broken into fragments, making restoration impossible, not to mention the chips were also damaged.

It was also soaked in a corrosive liquid to eliminate all traces.

The method was ingenious!

The investigation results were transmitted back to Shanghai as soon as possible.

Jie Chou had not slept all night while checking leads. When he received the report, he frowned and pondered it for a long time.

In fact, these were two cases, but he felt they were connected.

The purpose of the person who posted on Weibo to confuse the public perception was too obvious!

It gave the real murderer more time to remain at large while Nan XiangWan\'s status as a suspect was discussed all over the Internet!

Not long after, the forensic appraisal results came out and were also submitted to Jie Chou.

The time of death was last Thursday. There were obvious ligature marks on the neck.

So he did not die after being thrown into the well, but was murdered first before being dumped into the well.

Jie Chou continued to check the surveillance videos. Unfortunately, it happened to be the Saturday when the Escape Room program team was preparing for the live show.

At that time, it was the end of the rehearsal and all the equipment had been double checked and was just waiting for the guests to arrive before shooting.

So the live surveillance was off at that time!

What was even more confusing was that because the old house had previously been purchased and rebuilt by the show team into an escape room, there had been staff coming and going to work on it. With so many complex people, it was impossible to screen each one.

All the clues and timings were barely satisfactory!

Jie Chou kept frowning as he reviewed the overnight investigation results.

Where did the first crime happen?

What was the murder weapon?

It was getting harder and harder!

-----------------

Nan XiangWan did not return to Sci-Fi Town. After two days of shooting publicity photos, she had a weekend variety show filming coming up.

Principal photography of Starry Sky would have to be postponed again, sorry Director Leng.

However, this time, Gu Beihuai had actually taken three days off in advance and returned to Shanghai early.

The two people\'s flight times coincided by chance.

Xiao Dong had arrived in Shanghai the day before already and came to pick them up from the airport by car.

The two had coordinated disguises, with big sunglasses and face masks, only relaxing and breathing fresh air freely after getting into the car.

Xiao Dong: “Miss Nan, you didn’t have signal on the plane. Sister Cheng Xue asked me to tell you that the younger sister of the deceased was your fan. She made an executive decision to bring the little girl to tour the company. Is that okay with you?”

Nan XiangWan: “How’s that child doing?”

Xiao Dong: “She lost several pounds in two days. She finally had some appetite after going to your private lounge.”

Nan XiangWan: “Try to visit her when you have time. She was crying so sadly in the video.”

Xiao Dong checked the time: “There’s no time left, Miss Nan. You should just go back first. There’s still one day after you finish shooting the day after tomorrow, right? You can meet then.”

Nan XiangWan: “Alright!”

Gu Beihuai listened to their conversation and glanced at his phone.

Sure enough, Lang Hu had dozens of unread angry messages. Scrolling up, it was all complaints.

Gu Beihuai casually sent back a perfunctory reply, relaxing internally.

As long as the child was picked up, it was fine. He hadn\'t expected Cheng Xue\'s side to act so quickly as well.

Then, Gu Beihuai smiled at Nan XiangWan.

The little cub had quite a few capable assistants around her, so his heart could rest easy too.

Nan XiangWan was ordering takeout. She started placing an order now so the food would arrive nicely by the time they got home.

Noticing Gu Beihuai\'s gaze, Nan XiangWan was puzzled.

Then she asked, "What? Do you want to eat too?"

Gu Beihuai: "?"

Eat what?

Nan XiangWan: "Alright, I\'ll order an extra serving for you too, 20 catties of crayfish in total, with big buns from the military canteen!"

Gu Beihuai: "......"

Xiao Dong: “Miss Nan! You still have to compete in karaoke tomorrow!”

Nan XiangWan: “I ordered non-spicy ones.”

Xiao Dong: "......"

No one could stop Nan XiangWan from eating crayfish tonight!

Xiao Dong dropped the two off downstairs at Seasons Residence, looking extremely helpless. She felt no sense of accomplishment as an assistant.

There was simply no restraining Nan XiangWan!

Nan XiangWan happily got out of the car. Gu Beihuai helped carry two bags of big buns as he followed her into Elevator No. 2.

Time to eat crayfish!

When the elevator arrived on the 22nd floor, there were takeout packages at the door, two huge bags containing 20 catties of crayfish.

Nan XiangWan picked up the crayfish bags and went straight to opening the door, walking in, all in one smooth sequence.

Gu Beihuai followed her in and casually kicked the package in the corner by the door in as well.

Gu Beihuai: “You didn’t open your delivery. It\'s not sent by that dog again, is it?”

Speaking of that dog, Gu Beihuai felt extremely unhappy internally!

Nan XiangWan: “Huh?”

She almost forgot that she still had an unopened delivery that had been sitting by the door since last Friday.

But the dog didn\'t say anything about a delivery!

Who sent it?
