Chapter 313 Plot, reversal, stunning
Tang Ren and Qin Feng went to the coffee shop where Songpa often visited during his lifetime to investigate, and learned that Songpa often used cameras to take pictures of the building opposite. They bribed the administrator to get the information of the residents in the building, and found that the children of one of the households and Songpa's missing The son happened to go to the same school, so the two pretended to be police officers and visited the family.

The head of this family is not here, and the person who opens the door is a little girl, Sinuo, played by Zhang Zifeng.

After some exchanges, the two came out of Sinuo's house, but when they turned around, Tang Ren and Qin Feng were kidnapped, and the person who arrested them was the big boss who lost the gold in the gold theft case.

The boss gave Tang Ren ten days. If he still couldn't find gold within ten days, he would throw Tang Ren into the Chao Phraya River to feed the crocodiles.

Tang Ren was afraid and kept bargaining. As a result, the time limit changed from ten days to seven days, and from seven days to five days. Tang Ren did not dare to continue bargaining. He asked Qin Feng, who had the most powerful brain next to him, for five days. Whether it was enough or not, Qin Feng made a gesture. Tang Ren thought the gesture meant OK, but Qin Feng retorted: "Three days!"

When they saw this, the audience thought that Qin Feng was already confident, but Qin Feng immediately said that if it took five days, he would not be able to catch the plane home.

As soon as Qin Feng said these words, the audience was stunned for a moment, and then all corners of the theater burst into laughter.

"I'll go! I thought Qin Feng was already sure, but it turned out that he was afraid of not being able to catch the plane? The relationship between the two of them as uncle and nephew is too plastic, right?"

"Hahaha, this is so ridiculous to me. I don't care whether you feed the crocodiles or not? Anyway, I can't miss my flight in three days!"

"Hahaha, die laughing!"

Afterwards, the uncle and nephew had a big fight and parted ways. Then Qin Feng went to see the little girl named Sinuo again.

In fact, Wang Qihang felt that there was something wrong with this Sinuo from the first sight.

Public security in Thailand is very poor, and the girl's home is in a slum area, where security is even worse. As a result, she easily opened the door to two people who claimed to be police officers.

When they met for the second time, she clearly knew the identities of Qin Feng and Tang Ren as wanted criminals, but she still seemed unusually calm and calm when facing Qin Feng.And when she learned that Songpa had been following her before her death, her expression, instead of showing any panic, actually seemed a little too calm!

When Qin Feng asked her why she thought she was being followed, she said something very inexplicable.

At this time, the girl's adoptive father came back, and the moment he saw the girl's adoptive father, Qin Feng's expression suddenly changed.

Next is the time for Qin Feng's super-powerful brain to show up. It is certain that Qin Feng has seen this person, otherwise he would not have the expression of seeing a ghost, so he began to search for traces of this person in his brain.

Time froze into a still picture. Qin Feng wandered around in the frozen picture. Finally, he found traces of this man in the scrap car market!

Although this three-dimensional thought palace freeze frame is not the first of its kind in the film, and it is not as classic as the final freeze frame in Hua Shang's film "Source Code", it is still very stunning.

Then Qin Feng and Tang Ren coincidentally came to the Buddha statue workshop where Songpa worked before his death, and then the time for decryption finally arrived.

There is no other entrance to the workshop, and the monitor at the door did not capture anyone other than Tang Ren entering or exiting. So how did the murderer enter the workshop and how did he leave?

It's very simple. Since the monitor will be automatically overwritten in seven days, then just sneak into the workshop seven days in advance!

But where has the murderer been hiding these past seven days?

In the film, the scene flashes back. When Qin Feng and Tang Ren hid Songpa's missing son Dan under the bed, they discovered a very fresh footprint under the bed.

So the murderer was hiding under Sompa’s son Dan’s bed!

So how did the murderer solve problems such as eating, drinking, and diarrhea during this period?
As mentioned before, Sompa went to a cafe far away every day to spy on the little girl Sinuo. The murderer took advantage of Sompa's absence to come out from under the bed to solve his problem of eating, drinking and defecating.

The details used in Qin Feng's reasoning were actually known to everyone at the scene, but almost no one connected these details to determine what really happened. As a result, after listening to Qin Feng's analysis, all the audience Suddenly it dawned on me: It turned out to be like this!
Before the audience came, most of them came to watch another comedy similar to "The Lost Road", and only then did they discover that "Detective Chinatown" actually has reasoning, and it even beats it. It has surpassed the vast majority of domestic suspense mystery dramas, and the suspense and comedy are also integrated very naturally and smoothly.

For example, Tang Ren, every time I see him analyze the case in a serious manner, I feel that it is still a bit superficial, but this guy suddenly says without knowing it: "I understand, he did too many bad things, so King Kong Appears to Kill Kill him!"

Unconsciously, I turned to Feng Shui metaphysics again.

Tang Ren intervened and joked, and Qin Feng reasoned in his own way. The combination of comedy and reasoning was quite clever. Some viewers even whispered that "Detective Chinatown" looked like an upgraded version of "Journey to the Road"!
Okay, now that we’ve solved the problem of how the murderer entered, how did the murderer escape?

Through Qin Feng's analysis, the audience realized that what he saw when Tang Ren came was actually the murderer, and at that time the real Songpa had already been beaten to death by the murderer with a magic pestle.

The light in the workshop was very dark, and Tang Ren could not see the murderer's appearance clearly at that time.

The murderer asked Tang Ren to leave his fingerprints and become a scapegoat. He also used the recording of the work and the projection of the candle to make Tang Ren think that it was Songpa who was working inside. However, in fact, the murderer had already hidden himself in the box that Tang Ren was transporting away. , and the real Songpa has been dead for a long time.

This time they were all used.

Almost all the details that Tang Ren and Qin Feng saw when they sneaked into the workshop for the first time were used:

There is clearly an electrical system in the workshop, but there are traces of burning candles next to the body.

And no one had noticed the audio equipment on the table before.

All the previous clues have been used, and the reasoning seems to be perfect.

At this time, the murderer suddenly appeared, startling all the audience.

After a fight with the murderer, Baoqiang and Liu Haoran finally managed to get away from the murderer. Unexpectedly, Axiang was caught by Tony, the subordinate of Superintendent Huang whose identity was exposed. During the fight, Axiang was accidentally shot. Tang Ren and Qin Feng had to Rush A Xiang to a nearby hospital.

In the hospital, Qin Feng asked Tang Ren why he came to Thailand. Tang Ren said: "Who is comfortable in the country and willing to come out?"

It turned out that Tang Ren was cheated on by his eldest brother when he was in China. After recalling it, Tang Ren said something that touched many people deeply: "Those who are floating outside and cannot return home all have their own difficulties."

A large number of police officers came to the hospital. In order to get rid of the police, Qin Feng also led three stupid thieves, including Xiao Xiang, to the hospital. As a result, he contributed the most amazing long-shot hospital shootout scene in the film.

At this time, Qin Feng had already guessed that Sinuo's adoptive father must be the murderer. The only thing missing at this moment was his motive for the murder.

After escaping from the hospital, the two came to Sinuo's house again. Unexpectedly, they happened to encounter Sinuo who committed suicide by taking sleeping pills. There was also a half-burned diary on the ground. The diary recorded how she was followed and raped by Songpa. the process of.

At this point, all the mysteries have been solved. After the two worked together to find the gold hidden in the Buddha statue, in Sinuo's ward, Tang Ren pretended to be a detective and exposed the entire murder process of Sinuo's adoptive father Li.

After some pretense, Baoqiang said:
"I have to say, what he did was really beautiful. If he hadn't made one miscalculation and found the number one detective in Chinatown for the dead ghost - in my mind, this case would have been perfect."

Needless to say, it’s quite fun to see Tang Ren’s pretense, but it only lasts for three seconds. When he met Li Qianbao, Tang Ren immediately revealed his true colors again:

"You...you, you, you...look at you, your eyebrows are sharp in front and wide in back, you have a black mole on your life palace, there are red threads in your eyes, and there are three lines at the end of your eyes. This kind of face is either vicious or extremely evil! "

What about the good reasoning?

Where is the promised detective?

How come you changed your mind to fortune-telling after just a few words of refutation?The change of painting style was so fast that most of the audience was caught off guard, so many people took several seconds to react before they couldn't help laughing again.

In the end, Qin Feng took out the speaker with memory function, which made the murderer unable to refute. Sinuo also asked her adoptive father harmlessly if these were all true, and then Li said "I love you" twice. ", then he jumped off the building, happened to jump on Quintiles' car, and then died.

In the end, Quintai Bai got a big advantage and successfully became the deputy director, allowing Huang Rendeng, played by Chen Brown, to successfully break through the defense.

The case was finally solved, and the atmosphere in the theater suddenly relaxed. Many viewers began to whisper about the movie to their friends and family.

"It's really good. I came here mainly for the comedy, but I didn't expect that the reasoning part was also surprisingly good."

"Bao Qiang's scene at the Police Station is very much like Cheng Long's. Many places have traces of Uncle Long's earlier films such as "Plan A", "Plan A Sequel", and "Red Zone"."

"Yes, yes, especially where Wang Baoqiang slides down the stairs, it is simply Uncle Long's classic signature move."

"I didn't expect that Cheng Long himself would no longer be able to produce the same feeling as in his early years. On the contrary, Chen Sicheng produced the flavor of Cheng Long's action films in his early years."

"I think the credit belongs to Li Mu. Li Mu has worked with Cheng Long so many times, and he is very familiar with the way the Cheng family class operates."

"The reasoning part is surprisingly good. I feel that the film can score at least 8 points."

At this moment, in the film, Qin Feng suddenly saw a very familiar sign, and he asked Qin Feng what the words on the sign meant.

"It's a very famous gay bar in Bangkok!" Qin Feng's expression changed drastically when he heard this, and the scenes that had been broadcast before began to flash back:

"Songpa's wife divorced him nine years ago..."

"The room is clean and has no smell. She is either a transvestite or a gay!"

……

Sompa - is he gay? !
As soon as the camera turned, Qin Feng came to the ward of the little girl Sinuo and told her a story:
"A boy went missing and his father was looking for him. He later suspected that his son was dead, and more importantly, he suspected that his son's killer might have been a little girl."

The audience was dumbfounded, and after being stimulated, they focused their attention again.

"It's not over yet?"

"What? Sinuo is the real culprit behind this?"

"No way? Don't make things worse!"

With Qin Feng's narration, all the puzzles were explained.

Why does Sompa follow Sinuo?

Both Sinuo's adoptive father and Qin Feng and Tang Ren seemed to be toyed with by this little girl.

Sinuo saw Qin Feng and Tang Ren coming again, so he swallowed a large amount of sleeping pills to create the illusion of suicide.

She used the diary to induce her adoptive father to kill Songpa for her, and used the diary that was just a little burned to reveal her adoptive father's murder motive to Qin Feng and Tang Ren. The torn pages were exactly how she used the notebook to instruct her adoptive father to kill. The whole process.

"If it were me, I would hide in the workshop seven days in advance..."

This reversal happened so suddenly that it caught people off guard, but if you think about it carefully, it makes sense.

And in this way, everything is explained, and all the previous clues are connected together - it turns out that Sinuo is the deepest hidden boss!

Hidden really deep enough!

This reversal caught almost everyone off guard. At this time, many viewers felt that the movie was almost over, and the rest of the movie was basically garbage time, but now there was such a big reversal.

how to say?

I was shocked!

Then the evaluation of the film went up a notch again.

If the film was only worth 7 points before, it is worth at least 8 points now!
Qin Feng did not want to expose Sinuo. After Sinuo talked about her understanding of good and evil, Qin Feng turned around and the camera showed Sinuo.

It was a look that even adults could instantly feel terrified. It is no exaggeration to say that at least [-]% of the people in the theater were frightened. For a while, there were all kinds of "I'm sorry" sounds in the theater. .

The movie finally ended, and Wang Qihang stood up and left the broadcast hall like everyone else. Along the way, almost the vast majority of the audience who came together were happily discussing the plot.

"It's awesome, it feels even better than the "Unfortunate Journey" series!"

"It's not necessarily better than the '囧' series. To this day, I still laugh every time I watch the '囧' series trilogy, but this movie does feel a bit more advanced."

That’s right, it’s a sense of luxury! The "囧" series has so many laughs that it makes people laugh. "Detective Chinatown" also has a lot of laughs, but the biggest difference of this movie is that its reasoning part is really good, and the reasoning feels like it is really better than Simply being funny is a bit more advanced.

"Why does Sinuo's adoptive father look so familiar?"

"It seems to be Pan Yueming, right? After his accident, almost no one in the industry used him to act. I don't know why he suddenly got on Hua Shang's big ship. I heard that he also starred in Hua Shang's new drama "Ghost" some time ago. "Blow out the lamp!"

"Should I say it, his acting skills are indeed very good, but let him play Hu Bayi?"

……

Baidu, movies.

"Is there anyone who has watched both movies? Let me tell you what the two movies are like. There are too many literary bourgeoisie on Douban, too many public relations for the film studios, and too many trolls. I can’t believe it. I just want to hear from the netizens in the bar. Anyway, it would be better if someone with a familiar ID could comment on it, and it would be best if they could talk about "Detective Chinatown" in detail."

The "Transformers" series has already released three movies before, so even if you haven't watched it yet, you can have a rough idea of ​​what the plot is like. On the contrary, "Detective Chinatown" is only the first one, so what the plot is like is very important. Most people are still unsure.

There were no answers from those familiar with the ID yet, so just like the original poster, the audience who wanted to wait for the reviews before buying tickets gathered together to chat.

"I guess "Detective Chinatown" should be a variant of "Journey to the Road". The three leading actors in "Journey to the Road" are Shen Teng, Wang Baoqiang and Huang Bo, while in "Detective Chinatown" only In addition to a strong character and an unknown youngster - this looks like a low-profile version of "The Journey", right? But after all, the script was written by director Li Mu himself, so at least the bottom line is still there Yes, I guess it’s about [-]% to [-]% of the strength of the "Unfortunate Journey" series."

"I guess so. It's worth watching, but it's probably mediocre."

"I have said it a long time ago, Hua Shang should not have ended the '囧' series. If we keep filming "囧4" and "囧5", is it not easier than starting a new story? Create another "囧" How can a high-level comedy IP be so simple? Alas! It’s a pity that Huashang Media didn’t listen to the advice! It’s such a great IP for the ‘囧’ series that it won’t be filmed if it is said to be discontinued. It’s simply a waste!”

"Brothers, I just finished watching "Detective Chinatown"!"

Finally, a familiar ID came to speak after watching the movie:
"It's really hard to answer the question of how "Detective Chinatown" compares to the "Jonny" series. In terms of comedy, the "Jon" series may be slightly better."

Before the words were finished, netizens who had not watched it yet were excited.

"What am I talking about? The "Unfortunate Journey" series is the ceiling of "Detective Chinatown"!"

"It sounds pretty good. If it is only slightly worse than the '囧' series, it will definitely be considered a good movie. The '囧' series is the benchmark for domestic comedy movies."

"It's really good if it's only slightly worse than the '囧' series."

At this time, the ID who had just watched the video finally finished what he had not yet had time to say:
"But... who would have thought that director Chen Sicheng would also play up suspense and reasoning this time? How is the comedy part of "Detective Chinatown"? To be honest, it may be slightly inferior to the "囧" series, but if In addition to the reasoning part, especially the big twist at the end, we all underestimated director Chen Sicheng before! To put it simply, the comedy part is good, but the reasoning part is amazing!"

Netizens who haven’t seen it yet were stunned after watching it.

"Big surprise in the reasoning part?"

Everyone has thought about many possibilities before, but this is not the only possibility.

What do you mean?
Is the “detective” part of Detective Chinatown really good?
This is strange!
Many people still don't believe it.

"Mystery? Suspense? Amazing? Real or fake? Judging from director Chen Sicheng's previous film "Beijing Love Story", we can't see any potential for suspense reasoning!"

"That's it, navy, right?"

As a result, several netizens who had just watched the video came to speak.

"Don't you believe it? To be honest, I didn't believe it before watching it, but the facts are before our eyes. The reasoning part of "Detective Chinatown" is absolutely amazing among domestic films!"

"Director Chen Sicheng really has no precedent for making mystery films, but you must know that the screenwriter of this film is Li Mu!"

"Has Li Mu made an example of a good suspense mystery? Why don't I remember it? "Inception"? It is indeed a bit difficult to understand, but this is not a formal mystery film, right?"

"I don't mean that Director Li Mu has filmed similar themes before, but I think Li Mu can ignore all themes. He studied computers in college. What was the result? After graduation, he met Cheng Long while filming in the Terracotta Warriors and Horses Pit. Li Mu Director Mu successfully seized the opportunity and became the number one director in the world!"

"Don't say it, it's true!"

"I feel itchy after hearing what you said. How about I buy a ticket this afternoon?"

"Buy it, buy it, I guarantee with my personality that this time is definitely worth the price!"
