Chapter 24
Bai Zui and Su Nuo separated before the director arrived, and the card naturally returned to Bai Zui obediently. Even a big name like Su Nuo would inevitably be reprimanded by the director.
When the director returned to the wooden house with a tired face, he found that all the cameras were turned off: "What's the matter? Didn't you tell you to only turn off Su Nuo's side!"
"I'm very sorry!" The staff hastily turned on all the cameras.
The director glanced at the sky and ordered: "It may be raining, stop shooting and let the contestants go back to their rooms."
Staff: "Yes."
Mobile phones are not allowed on the island, but the watches worn by the players have a positioning system, and the staff will notify them according to the positioning.
The heavy rain came soon, and the big raindrops beat on the windows frantically. Everyone was sitting in the living room, but everyone's face was very heavy, and the atmosphere seemed to be frozen.
Because Bei Qingmo disappeared.
"Squeak—" The door opened from the outside and a staff member in a raincoat walked in. The rain dripped on the floor, and he walked in with rain boots.
Qin Shuwang stood up and asked anxiously, "Did you find anyone?"
The staff shook his head: "Don't worry, we have already sent more people."
Tan Shenshui frowned and said, "Don't you have a signal station? Something must have happened to her, call the police."
Bai Zui couldn't help but glanced at him. In his impression, Tan Shenshui was not such a kind person. He raised his eyebrows and said, "The island is so big, it's not impossible for people to get lost, but you acted as if something must happen."
Tan Shenshui's face changed slightly: "I'm just worried. The watch has a positioning system but can't find her location. This is not right in itself!"
Su Nuo said to the staff: "You know the route of the island best. Finding someone is hard work for you. Even if it is missing, it takes 24 hours to call the police. Let's see the situation first. After all, if the police come, the show will not be filmed. gone."
"How can this be! Don't call the police," Qin Shuwang is the person who is most afraid of accidents. Her performance as a host is average, so she participated in the reality show this time to transform herself into an artist.The company also specially greeted the director and asked her to pair up with Su Nuo as a CP. If she couldn’t make the film and had to deal with it, then she would have no future. She found her tone blunt, and explained one more sentence: "I believe that sister Bei will be fine. , Thank you for your hard work."
The staff also nodded solemnly: "Everyone, rest early and leave everything to us."
Everyone returned to the room one after another, Bai Zui sat by the window, watching the heavy rain and the scenery became hazy, he took out the card, this time the prompt was 'the farthest place'.
"It's a pity," Bai Zui's eyes were dark, and he rubbed the card with his fingers: "I can't go to this place..."
At night, it rained cats and dogs.
Bai Zui was wearing a raincoat and was walking in the woods in the rain. After walking for a while, he suddenly tripped over a branch under his feet and leaned forward.At this moment, a hand wrapped around his waist appeared behind him, and after he stood still, he elbowed the person behind him without saying a word.
The person behind blocked the attack, but also let go of the hands around his waist and took a few steps back.
Bai Zui turned around and took a flashlight to take a picture. When he saw the person coming, he looked surprised. He subconsciously looked at his watch, it was half past one in the morning.
"Brother Xie, why aren't you wearing a raincoat?"
Xie Xiao supported the tree to stand up, his whole body was drenched, his bangs drooped wetly on his forehead, his face looked gloomy under the light of the flashlight: "Why are you out in the rainstorm?"
Bai Zui took out a card from his pocket: "I'm here to find clues to the treasure, oops, I still care about clues when I think about it."
Xie Xiao: "..."
While preparing to put the new card back, Bai Zui said, "Brother Xie, you have to wear a raincoat when you come out in heavy rain... Could it be that you purposely experience the pleasure of being in the rain?"
"Bei Qingmo is dead." Xie Xiao's dull voice still penetrated the sound of rain and reached Bai Zui's ears.
Bai Zui's hands trembled, and the card fell to the ground. He didn't bend down to pick it up, but raised his eyes and asked, "Where is it?"
This was Bai Zui's second time seeing a dead person, and the raincoat on Bei Qingmo's body must have belonged to Xie Xiao.He opened it and saw that several strands of Bei Qingmo's hair were hanging on her pale face, and her closed eyes would never have the chance to open again.
Bai Zui took off his raincoat, let the heavy rain drench his clothes in an instant, the icy cold rain brought a chill to his bones, and put the raincoat on Bei Qingmo under Xie Xiao's suspicious eyes, and he also deliberately explained: "The feet are not covered. "
Xie Xiao's indifferent eyes were tinged with a trace of warmth, but he didn't say anything, just said "En".
Bai Zui couldn't say how he felt at this moment, and sighed: "Why did such a beautiful woman die?"
Xie Xiao looked up at the steep hillside: "It should have slipped down the hillside accidentally."
This reason makes sense. Bai Zui remembered that the watch has a positioning system. He looked at Bei Qingmo's watch and found that the watch was damaged. Although the time display was normal, it was probably because the positioning system failed due to the impact when it fell.
Bai Zui stood up and said, "Let's go back and call someone."
The news of Bei Qingmo's death shocked everyone like a thunderbolt. Qin Shuwang burst into tears on the spot. Tan Shenshui comforted Qin Shuwang with a heavy expression on his face.
When Bai Zui and Xie Xiao came back, they went to the room to take a shower. When he came out after changing his clothes, he saw Tan Shenshui's hypocritical appearance, but Bei Qingmo had just met everyone, so it would be strange if he was heartbroken.
To say that the one who is truly devastated is the director. When the police come to investigate, the media will definitely report it. It is impossible for a reality show to continue after such a thing happened.And now that someone is dead, it is difficult for him to resign as the person in charge and director.
Although the rain was a little lighter, but in order to protect the scene, there was no way to move the corpse, so the director had no choice but to order the staff to temporarily build a simple shed next to Bei Qingmo, so as not to let the corpse continue to be wet by the rain.
When the director returned to the house, he was exhausted both physically and mentally. He asked Xie Xiao, "Hey Su, how did you find Bei Qingmo?"
Xie Xiao frowned slightly: "I also wanted to help find someone together, but I didn't expect a tragedy to happen."
Tan Shenshui said heavily: "It's really sad that such an accident happened!"
Bai Zui glanced at him, and suddenly felt that Tan Shenshui's attitude towards Bei Qingmo's death was a bit too much: "We have to wait for the police to investigate carefully."
He didn't know if it was an illusion of guilt, but when he said the word "investigation", Tan Shenshui's face was unnatural for a moment.
"Okay, don't talk about it," the director was upset at this moment, he looked at his watch: "Everyone go to rest for a while, the police have already called the police, and there will be no safety when the police arrive."
Bai Zui also looked at the time, 01:24.
Tan Shenshui returned to the room, and ran to the bathroom as soon as he closed the door. He kept pouring cold water on his face, and looked up at the mirror gloomyly.
When the screen suddenly stopped at the scene of Bei Qingmo's death, Tan Shenshui felt sick in his throat, but he couldn't vomit anything.
At present, everything is going according to plan. Tan Shenshui did not intend to blame Bei Qingmo's death on white crimes, because he was not sure that the police would not find out the signs.The police will definitely question everyone. As long as he reports the police to the police for possession of drugs, his mission will be completed.
Tan Shenshui laughed darkly, once Bai Zui was imprisoned, someone would treat him well.
"Dong dong——" There was a knock on the door. Tan Shenshui wiped his face and went out to open the door. He saw that it was Su Nuo.
"Brother Su, what's the matter?"
Xie Xiao said expressionlessly, "I have something to tell you."
Tan Shenshui was puzzled, but still said very politely: "Brother Su, look, I'm about to rest..."
Xie Xiao's eyes seemed to be full of ink that couldn't be melted away: "If you don't say something now, you have to tell the police later."
Tan Shenshui's heart skipped a beat. He tightly clenched the hands beside him, turned and said, "I'm really flattered that Brother Su can come to chat with me. You should know that Brother Su is also my idol. Please come in."
Xie Xiao walked in, Tan Shenshui looked outside the corridor to make sure that no one was closing the door, he looked at Xie Xiao, and said in a strange tone: "Brother Su, what do you want to say to me?"
Xie Xiao suddenly spoke, and the words were startling: "Why did you kill Bei Qingmo?"
Hearing this sentence, Tan Shenshui relaxed a lot. He shrugged and said helplessly, "It's brother Xie... I did what you said, but I didn't expect that Bei Qingmo also returned to the house. She saw I was hiding drugs, so I had no choice but to kill him, but in this way, I can immediately report the crime of hiding drugs when the police arrive."
"Inappropriate," Xie Xiao directly dismissed his plan, and he said calmly: "You have a history of drug use, which is recorded by the police. If you report it, it will be easy for accidents to happen."
Tan Shenshui thought to no avail and asked, "Brother Xie, what should I do?"
"Boss Qiu and I are brothers, so I will naturally help," Xie Xiao smiled slightly, but this smile was indescribably weird in the dark, and he continued: "I put a pack of drugs in the place where Bei Qingmo died. Far away, when the time comes you will be like this..."
After Tan Shenshui heard the plan, his face turned pale, he trembled his lips, and said after a long time: "Brother Xie... If you do this, won't I be finished with it?"
Xie Xiao patted him on the shoulder: "How do you think the benefits are easy to get?"
It was only then that Tan Shenshui realized that Boss Qiu asked Xie Xiao to help him for no reason at all, but since he killed Bei Qingmo, there was no turning back.
Xie Xiao didn't care about Tan Shenshui's disheartened expression, before leaving, he said: "Since you have entered the chess game, you should do your duty as a chess piece."
