Chapter 589: I Could Finally Leave (1)

Xu Weilai listened to Su Ziqian’s recount carefully. Feeling rather annoyed by her repeated whines about her innocence, Xu Weilai couldn’t help but frown and clarify, “We’ll only know if you’re innocent after we investigate the matter. I only believe in evidence.”

Unlike Chunchun, Su Ziqian was not someone whom she could fully trust.

“I’m going to ask you a few questions now and I want you to answer me truthfully.”

Su Ziqian agreed without hesitation, “Fire away.”

“Firstly, are you sure you entered the script room? How could you prove it?”

“All the rooms on set were labelled and when I did take note of the label on the door when I entered the room. It was stated as the script room.”

Xu Weilai quickly jotted this down on her notebook before she asked, “Second question. The actual script does not contain the line that says ‘I’m going to kill you’. How did you get the script with this line?”

Su Ziqian replied, “The crew in charge of the script handed it to me, but I received it on short notice. They said that they added an extra scene and would begin to film it at night, so they urged me to run through the script with Hu Kexin.”

Xu Weilai nodded and asked, “Do you know the identity of the person who heard you say that you’re going to kill Hu Kexin in the lounge?”

Su Ziqian replied, “It was Hu Kexin’s assistant!”

“Okay, I got it. I’ll keep you updated.”

After hanging up the call, Xu Weilai sorted out the information before she picked up her phone again and called Qiao Chu to ask him to pop by and pick her up with his car so that they could go and investigate the matter.

Xu Weilai then contacted the crew who was in charge of the script. Probably because many reporters have reached out to the crew member over the past few days, after giving her a small bribe, it did not take much for her to talk.

She shared, “Hu Kexin’s manager was the one who asked her assistant to give the script to Su Ziqian. Her manager never read the script, so she does not know if there were any extra lines in it.”

Now, beyond Hu Kexin’s assistant, even her manager was involved.

The next thing that Xu Weilai wanted to figure out was why the crime scene had changed from the script room to the lounge. If she could prove that Su Ziqian and Hu Kexin were in the script room, it would increase the credibility of Su Ziqian’s claims about the extra line in the script and lower her likelihood of being the culprit.

The crime scene had already been cordoned off and security was tight so it was impossible for Xu Weilai to sneak in to investigate. Rendered with no choice, she could only watch the footage captured by the surveillance cameras along the corridor to see if anything was caught on film.

She was not in the power to request for the footage, but this was where Qiao Chu would come into the scene. After Qiao Chu fiddled on his computer for over half an hour, managed to break through the system’s firewall and steal the surveillance footage.

“Big Boss’s subordinates are all so capable,” Xu Weilai thought.

As expected, the surveillance footage did not manage to prove whether if Su Ziqian was in the script room or the lounge, for the room was in a blind so and after Su Ziqian entered the room, the scene blacked out.

Qiao Chu explained that there were no subsequent recordings because the surveillance camera’s memory was full. “What an unfortunate coincidence…” Xu Weilai mused.

Thus, there was no way to prove when Su Ziqian had left the room and whether anyone else entered the room to commit the crime after she left.

As the surveillance footage did not provide them with any leads, Xu Weilai could only try her luck elsewhere. Xu Weilai brewed herself a large pot of coffee and dark circles appeared under her eyes after she stayed up all night. Eventually, she managed to solve the mystery of why the crime scene would be in the lounge instead of the script room.

Following this lead, she continued to dig deeper into the case and finally identified a possible suspect.

However, she knew that she shouldn’t jump to conclusions quickly and thus, asked Qiao Chu to investigate the motive of the suspect, which was the most critical point in the case.

After Xu Weilai and Qiao Chu spent the entire week on addressing every detail and uncertainty about the case, Xu Weilai then wrote her news article.
