The Secret Chamber of the Card Game

When Yu Hanjiang decided to expand the scope of the search, he sorted out Lin Yiyan's high school and college classmates.

She decided to enter the Film Academy in her second year of high school. According to her parents, since she was admitted to the Film Academy, she rarely saw her middle school classmates. Good friends still keep in touch. These two people are not in Binzhou City at present, and they only get together with Lin Yiyan every year during Chinese New Year.

These two high school classmates did not have any motive for killing, and they were not in Binzhou City, so they obviously had little to do with this case.

Students in college are more complicated.

Lin Yiyan is a student of the Acting Department of the Film Academy. Several of his classmates have already made their names in the entertainment industry and become popular traffic stars. Organize parties frequently.

These very popular students all publicly sent birthday wishes to Lin Yiyan on Weibo on October 10th.

The names of these people are all in Yu Hanjiang's notebook, including Qiao Xuening.

Unlike Lin Yiyan, who went all the way and went smoothly after her debut, Qiao Xuening has been in the entertainment industry for the past few years. It can be said that there have been many twists and turns.

She has been playing supporting roles in various online dramas since the beginning, maidservants, backup dancers, maidservants, villains... After three years of supporting roles, no one knew the name "Qiao Xuening", the bitterness in it can be imagined .

Her career turned around thanks to Lin Yiyan's support.

That was still eight years ago.At that time, Lin Yiyan was already well-known. With the full help of her manager Qi Ming, she acted in four different types of TV series in a row. The ratings and reviews were good, and she also had more than one million Weibo fans.

Starlight Entertainment has invested in a large-scale ancient costume drama. Lin Yiyan took over the role of the heroine. The other concubines need to be auditioned. She introduced resources to Qiao Xuening, a college classmate, and asked Qiao Xuening to play the fourth female role in the drama.

The female number four doesn't have so many roles, and the ending is quite sad, but fortunately, the character design is very distinctive.Qiao Xuening has played a supporting role for several years. After training, her acting skills have been improved. She interpreted this tragic character superbly, especially in the scene where she committed suicide at the end, which made the audience cry a lot, and even made several hot searches .

It is also because of this drama that Qiao Xuening is well-known by the audience and also by the directors in the circle.

The directors found out that this young girl has good acting skills, right?

As a result, Qiao Xuening became a representative of the "new generation acting school" in the eyes of the directors from a little transparent, and naturally there were more and more film appointments, good scripts continued, and the director named her to play the heroine. Only then did the popularity rise steadily.

Unfortunately, her luck is really bad.

It has just been popular for two years, but some scandals about her suddenly broke out on the Internet-Qiao Xuening once had a relationship after graduating from high school, and the object was a cool-looking guy from an Internet cafe. , playing games in the Internet cafe all night, the two took many intimate photos and videos, including many indecent photos of Qiao Xuening without clothes on.

It was her original boyfriend who released these videos and photos.

It is said that Qiao Xuening dumped him within a year after entering college, and the ex-boyfriend suddenly released these negative news when Qiao Xuening became popular, just for revenge.

Seeing her luo photos spread all over the Internet, Qiao Xuening's emotions almost collapsed.

She burst into tears at the press conference, saying that when she was young, she met people who were not good, and she fell in love with a scumbag purely because of her face, and took so many indecent photos with the scumbag. This is the most regrettable thing in her life thing.Not only did she publicly condemn the nasty behavior of the scumbag for exposing the private video, she took the scumbag to court, and she also publicly apologized to fans.

Those indecent photos circulating on the Internet had a great impact on Qiao Xuening's reputation.But her sense of crisis is not bad, this matter is handled very well, and the fans are very sympathetic to her...

After being silenced for two full years, Qiao Xuening mustered up the courage to return to the entertainment circle.

After filming several TV series, her acting skills are getting better and better, especially the crying scene, which has almost become the benchmark in the entertainment industry, which can easily arouse the emotions of the audience.Coupled with the fact that she won several awards later, Qiao Xuening has gradually become clear.

In fact, that incident back then cannot be said to be her fault. It is everyone's freedom to shoot intimate videos in private. The man who exposed the video is the culprit. They are all very polite and polite, and they are also known for their dedication when filming.It is said that she memorizes scripts over and over before filming, and rarely forgets words during filming.

This time when filming "Twin Flowers", her agent suggested that she use a stand-in for the difficult dance moves, but Teacher Qu said that Qiao Xuening puts her heart into this show, and even went to dance classes for a month in order to play a good heroine .

On the surface, this female star has a tenacious personality and works hard, and her experience over the years is also very inspirational.

When Xiao Lou sorted out the star information of Starlight Entertainment Company, he sorted out Qiao Xuening's information, because at that time he already knew that Qiao Xuening was the heroine of the drama "Twin Flowers", so the information must be useful.

Because Xiao Lou had the foresight to sort out the information, Yu Hanjiang was very clear about Qiao Xuening's experience.

Hearing Cheng Yu mention Qiao Xuening, these materials quickly appeared in Yu Hanjiang's mind. He and Xiao Lou looked at each other and decided to ask Qiao Xuening in person.

It was [-] o'clock in the evening. Although "Twin Flowers" was an idol drama, it starred two popular stars, Qiao Xuening and Cheng Yu. The investors paid a lot of money, and the director was very generous. They directly rented out an entire floor of a five-star hotel, allowing several famous actors to live here during filming.

Qiao Xuening's room is at 7311, Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou stopped by Qiao Xuening's residence and knocked on the door.

It was a young girl who came to open the door, probably an assistant. She was stunned when she saw the two, and asked, "Did you knock on the wrong door?"

Yu Hanjiang showed his police officer's card: "The police handle the case."

The female assistant immediately turned around and went back to the house to find the agent.

Qiao Xuening's agent was a middle-aged woman in her 40s, she looked mature and stable at first glance, she nodded politely to Yu Hanjiang, and said, "Hello, police officer, I don't know what case you are investigating, but you are here? Are you sure you didn't find the wrong person?"

Yu Hanjiang asked: "Is Ms. Qiao Xuening in the room?"

The agent was stunned: "This..."

Yu Hanjiang said: "We came to find her to understand some things, and hope she can cooperate."

The agent had no choice but to bite the bullet and invite the two into the house. After all, if they hindered the police from handling the case, the matter would become serious.

When the two entered the room, they happened to see Qiao Xuening wearing loose clothes and bare feet, doing a ponytail on the carpet next to her. Qu Wanyue was also there. After seeing Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang, Qu Wanyue pretended not to Knowing each other, she stood up and walked to the manager's side and asked, "Sister Xu, what's going on?"

Sister Xu frowned and said, "Teacher Qu, I'm sorry to bother you today. You should go back first. I still have some things to deal with. I'll find you tomorrow."

Qu Wanyue glanced at Xiao Lou, nodded, and turned to leave.

The manager also sent the little assistant away, and when there were only four people left in the room, Qiao Xuening stood up suspiciously, tidied up her clothes, put on her slippers, came to Yu Hanjiang, and asked politely, "Who are these two?"

Yu Hanjiang took out a police officer and said, "Hi, Ms. Qiao, I'm Yu Hanjiang, the captain of the Binzhou Criminal Police Team, and I'm here to investigate a criminal case. Do you know Lin Yiyan? How is your relationship with her?"

Qiao Xuening was slightly taken aback: "Xiaoyan? Of course I know each other. We are classmates. We lived in a dormitory for four years in college. We have a good relationship. The entertainment industry is so complicated. How many classmates can take care of each other? , everyone’s journey will be much easier.”

She looked at her manager: "Sister Xu, pour a glass of water for the two police officers."

The manager politely poured three glasses of water and handed them to Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou. Yu Hanjiang put it on the table and didn't intend to drink it, but Qiao Xuening took a few sips. It was obvious that she was sweating from dancing practice and was a little thirsty.

Qiao Xuening pointed to the balcony and said, "Both of you, sit down and chat."

Yu Hanjiang walked over and sat down on the sofa, Xiao Lou also sat with him, and took out his notebook and pen.Qiao Xuening sat across from the two of them, took a few sips of water to moisten her throat, and asked, "Officer Yu, you suddenly asked about Xiaoyan, what happened?"

Yu Hanjiang then asked: "From November 11th to 16th, where were you and what did you do?"

Qiao Xuening said: "Number 16? I seem to be recording a variety show." She looked up at her agent, "Sister Xu, please check for me. I was so busy last week that I got dizzy. I don't remember the date very well. clear."

The agent turned on the phone, checked the records carefully, and then said: "That's right, Xiao Xiaoning was recording the variety show "Please Close Your Eyes When It's Dark" in the suburbs last Monday and Tuesday, and the program team invited her to be a guest. I have the announcement schedule here."

She handed the phone to Yu Hanjiang for a look, and said, "I sent her to the mountain at noon on the 16th, and picked her up at noon on the 17th. This program was recorded in the mountains to create an atmosphere."

Xiao Lou was stunned, and asked: "Please close your eyes when it's dark? Just give everyone some ID cards, policemen, killers, civilians, and then play a killing game. The killer has to kill all the civilians to win. The killer among them guides the civilians to vote and exiles the killer... Is this the rule?"

Qiao Xuening nodded with a smile: "Can you play too?"

Xiao Loudao: "When I was in school, I often played."

Qiao Xuening explained: "This show only started recording the first season this year. In order to attract viewers, the show team invited many famous guests. Our recording this time is a game mode with 12 people, 4 killers, 4 policemen, 4 Civilians. Everyone lives in a tent... The director said that when it gets dark, killers will come out and label people, and those who are labeled are equivalent to being killed."

Yu Hanjiang asked: "What identity card did you draw?"

Qiao Xuening said with a wry smile: "I got the police in the first round, but unfortunately I was not very good at playing, so I was voted out by the villagers collectively. The effect of the show was not very good. We recorded it all night and played five rounds in total. In the end, The director picks the funniest rounds to edit."

Yu Hanjiang asked: "So from the 16th to the 17th, you were recording variety shows in the mountains?"

Qiao Xuening nodded and said: "Yes. In order to make the show more realistic, everyone has to live in tents during the recording of the show. Fortunately, Sister Xu prepared a charging heater for me in advance, otherwise I would have a cold."

She paused, and looked at Yu Hanjiang suspiciously: "Officer Yu, what happened? Why do you keep asking me about the situation on the 16th and 17th? There were no accidents during the recording of the program, and everyone got along very well."

Yu Hanjiang said coldly: "Miss Lin Yiyan died in the villa at Moon Lake Villa in the early hours of the 17th."

Qiao Xuening's face was startled suddenly, "Ah", the cup in her hand fell to the ground with a "snap", she widened her eyes in disbelief: "What? Xiaoyan, she...she died?"

Yu Hanjiang nodded: "Yes, the time of death was between 17 am and 3 am on the 4th."

Xiao Lou carefully observed Qiao Xuening's face. After hearing what Yu Dui said, the expression on her face was always shocked. After a while, she came back to her senses, her lips trembling slightly, and she murmured in a low voice: "Why? Maybe? She even sent me a WeChat message this morning..."

Yu Hanjiang said: "Can I see your mobile phone?"

Qiao Xuening quickly handed the phone to Yu Hanjiang, and opened the call history with Lin Yiyan: "Look, she sent me a message this morning to tell me that she won't come to visit the show knowing that my new drama will start soon, let me Take care of yourself on set."

The wechat was sent at nine o'clock this morning.

After receiving the message, Qiao Xuening replied: "Thank you Xiaoyan, let's get together after I'm finished!"

Lin Yiyan replied: "No problem, when the time comes, I will make you your favorite coke chicken wings."

Qiao Xuening returned a row of greedy expressions: "I'm so hungry."

Lin Yiyan said: "Let's not chat for now. I'm going to take my family on a trip. It may be slow to reply to messages these days. Just leave a message if you have something to do."

Qiao Xuening: "Okay, have fun."

There is no more to the conversation here.

Yu Hanjiang scrolled through the pages, they were all the daily greetings from Qiao Xuening and Lin Yiyan, and the pictures of the two girls sharing cosmetics and bags with each other, nothing was wrong.He returned the phone to Qiao Xuening and asked: "You have known Lin Yiyan for so many years, as far as you know, did she have any grudges with anyone when she was in college or after debuting?"

Qiao Xuening was silent for a moment, her eyes flickered, and she hesitated to speak.

Yu Hanjiang whispered: "Miss Qiao, I hope you can tell us everything you know about Lin Yiyan."

Qiao Xuening took a deep breath, twitched her eyelashes slightly, and said in a trembling voice: "Xiaoyan is very good to me. When I was at my worst, I could only take on some supporting roles. My monthly income was barely enough to eat, and even the rent was not enough. At that time, Xiaoyan was already very popular. I found her at a class meeting and asked her if she could help introduce some resources to me. Xiaoyan agreed at the time. I thought she was joking, but I didn’t expect her He really did it, introduced me to play a supporting role in a big-budget costume drama, and later introduced the director and screenwriter to me..."

Speaking of this, the eyes of the girl in front of her suddenly turned red, and tears kept rolling in her eyes: "Back then, when I was scandalized by my first love boyfriend, when netizens spread my photos everywhere and scolded me badly, Xiaoyan still stood up for me. I’ve spoken before... I’ll always remember this kindness. I think she’s a very kind person, so why would someone kill her?”

Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou looked at each other and looked at each other.

It seems that Lin Yiyan's acting personality is to play the role of "benefactor" in front of girlfriends to gain a sense of accomplishment.She helped this best friend very generously. Even now, Qiao Xuening is full of praise for her.

Xiao Lou interjected softly, "Didn't she tell you that she has any grievances with you?"

Qiao Xuening wiped her eyes in embarrassment, looked away, and said as calmly as possible: "I didn't mention it, I usually chat with her about cosmetics, clothes, perfume, etc. We are both busy and don't have much time Let's meet, I wanted to go to her 30th birthday this year, but unfortunately I was filming a commercial a few days ago, so I said we'll get together at the end of the year... I didn't expect her, she was murdered?"

Yu Hanjiang said: "How much do you know about her relationship history?"

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Qiao Xuening's face, and she said after a while: "I know about her being with her manager."

Yu Hanjiang then asked: "No other boyfriend?"

Qiao Xuening shook her head: "She didn't mention it."

Yu Hanjiang confirmed Qiao Xuening's confession again, and finally found that she couldn't get any more clues here, so he and Xiao Lou had to withdraw first.

Before leaving, Yu Hanjiang gave Qiao Xuening a business card and said, "Miss Qiao, if you think of any clues about Lin Yiyan's murder, you can contact me at any time."

Qiao Xuening took the business card, and said with red eyes: "Well, Captain Yu, go slowly, I hope you can solve the case as soon as possible, Xiaoyan is such a good person, he can't die in vain, the murderer must be brought to justice!"
