The fake blood on his face mixed with cold sweat and slid down Xiao Tong's nose. He really could not understand how things had ended up like this.
According to the script, it was the doctor who was chasing after Han Fei, so how did Han Fei end up chasing after him with the baton?
Inside this enclosed room, the only person Xiao Tong could rely on was the stunt double next to him. When humans were in danger, they tended to hug each other for warmth, that was probably the nature of social animals.
Seeing Xiao Tong and the stunt double hugging each other, Han Fei narrowed his eyes and his lips parted slightly. "Partner? That doesn't look like it. "
Han Fei waved the baton in his hand. The sound of wind whistling entered his ears. It caused Xiao Tong to drag the stunt double back in fear.
He accidentally grabbed the stunt double's injured arm. The pain caused the man to grimace and his face paled even more.
In his panic, Xiao Tong did not notice this.
He was just an idol singer who had just entered the entertainment industry, he had never been through something like this before. Now he only felt that something was wrong with Han Fei and he needed to get away from Han Fei as soon as possible.
Xiao Tong did not have the self-awareness of being a hostage. He grabbed the 'kidnapper's' arm and tried to escape into the bedroom with the 'kidnapper'.
Seeing Xiao Tong dragging the murderer back, Han Fei's brows creased again. He suddenly picked up speed!
Xiao Tong and the stunt double ran as fast as they could but the bedroom door was so narrow. The two ran into each other.
Venom flashed across his face. The stunt double shoved Xiao Tong toward Han Fei. Then he retreated into the bedroom and locked the door from the inside.
Xiao Tong lost his balance and fell to the ground. Seeing Han Fei closing in on him, he crawled backward on the ground and screamed shrilly.
While Xiao Tong was scared out of his wits, Han Fei reached the bedroom door. He shoved Xiao Tong to the side.
"Don't be afraid, that man is a murderer. Just like you, I am his hostage." Han Fei explained coldly to Xiao Tong. Then he aimed a kick at the bedroom door's lock!
"Both … both of us are hostages?"
"Bang!"
Xiao Tong was sprawled on the ground. Before he could react, he saw Han Fei's foot land on the bedroom door!
The door and the lock shook in unison. The wooden planks on the door frame fell to the ground.
"What kind of hostage would kick down the door where the murderer is hiding?!"
"Bang!"
The lock fell and the door was kicked open.
While the boy was surprised, Han Fei had already entered the room.
The cold wind caressed his cheeks. The bedroom window was opened, and the body double was standing on the study table by the window.
His condition was a little strange. There was no fear or panic on his face. Instead, there was a kind of numbness and pain. It was as if he was suddenly tired of this world, tired of his own life.
This was completely different from his previous performance. It felt like he was a completely different person.
"Butterfly is controlling it?"
Blood vessels appeared in the stunt double's eyes like butterfly patterns. Thin threads intertwined at the depth of his pupils and slowly constricted his eyes. The stunt double's brain appeared to have gone haywire. A strange cackle escaped his lips as he pointed at Han Fei.
"Your turn will come!"
When Han Fei entered the room, he charged at the man. He wanted to grab the man but the man was decisive. After saying that, he jumped out of the window.
The stunt double fell from the 9th floor. After he jumped out of the window, he seemed to wake up instantly. His face was filled with fear and tears of blood leaked out from his bloodshot eyes.
Standing at the window, perhaps it was his imagination but Han Fei saw the thing that looked like a human was hugging the stunt double's waist, hiding behind him as they fell together.
After a while, Han Fei heard the sound of something heavy hitting the ground. Then came the screams of people outside.
Standing inside the room, Han Fei looked at the empty bedroom.
The night breeze lifted the curtains and Han Fei felt a chill run down his spine.
A living person disappeared into the night. Perhaps in the butterfly's eyes, life was just a chess piece or a toy.
'The butterfly has never respected life. It probably sees itself as the God that controls everything. To it, normal people are just tools to achieve its goal. This mentality is a reflection of its personality. What a complete bastard. '
The boy in the living room also saw the stunt double jump. He gasped in shock and his legs buckled.
"You …" He could not say a word. His body was shaking and his lungs felt like they were filled with ice. Even his breath was chilled.
"That man is not a normal stunt double, he wanted to kill me." Han Fei pulled the boy up from the ground. "We are all victims."
The victims had forced the murderer to his death. The boy leaned against the wall. He did not dare to speak, even his breathing was cautious.
A flurry of footsteps came from the corridor, and the staff rushed into the room.
Once they entered, they saw the pale boy and Han Fei standing at the bedroom door.
The 3 of them entered the room. Now there were only 2 people left in the room. The workers did not dare approach them anymore.
Several minutes later, the police arrived.
Li Xue and the 2 plainclothes officers weaved through the crowd to Han Fei's side.
For them, Han Fei's safety was the most important thing because Han Fei was the key to their capture of the butterfly.
"Are you hurt?" Li Xue inspected Han Fei's body. She sighed in relief when she saw Han Fei was unharmed. Then she received a call from her colleague downstairs. Her expression turned serious. "The stunt double has lost all signs of life. My colleague is trying to retrieve his personal information."
A murder at the set was a very bad sign. The advice of the old folks at the building appeared to be slowly becoming a reality.
"Han Fei!" Director Zhang was getting on in years. He huffed and puffed as he ran up to the 9th floor. "The camera caught the stunt double holding the knife. I have a backup of the man's information."
Judging from the result, Han Fei did chase the enemy all the way, but in essence, Han Fei was just defending himself.
Combining the information provided by Director Zhang and the police, Han Fei got to know the stunt double's past.
The man was originally a sprinter from the provincial team but he was kicked out of the team due to a drunken brawl. He had a violent personality and was a fan of extreme sports. Only extreme sports could give him the thrill.
Due to his ability and his willingness to try many dangerous moves, he slowly gained some fame in the circle.
The information provided by Director Zhang was nothing special but combined with the information provided by the police, it was a completely different story.
The man had been with 3 girlfriends, all of them were violently beaten by him. The man himself had a long history of drug abuse and he often posted crazy posts on the internet anonymously.
Reading the posts that the man posted online, Han Fei shook his head. Such an arrogant man could not even hold a plastic knife properly in a real fight and he was chased around by Han Fei. His mental fortitude was beyond imagination.
"We'll investigate this as soon as we get back. We'll find out when he came into contact with the butterfly." The police prepared to bring Han Fei away. Director Zhang nodded in agreement.
The last scene of the night was completed. Han Fei and Bai Xian's stunt double had completed their mission. Their intense chase had a unique sense of realism to it. It felt like they were in a real race of life and death.
"Director Zhang, in the future, we should try to shoot during the day." Han Fei reminded Director Zhang before he left. He had a feeling that today's encounter was just the beginning, he would have to face the crazier butterfly in the future.
'The butterfly is good at manipulating human nature. As long as there is a flaw in the human heart, they can become its target. Therefore, I need to be careful of my surroundings, be it strangers or people I know.'
After exiting the building, when Han Fei got into the police car, he turned back to look at the old building behind him.
Inside the building that was shrouded in darkness, there was the sound of wind chimes. He could feel a pair of eyes staring at him from the darkness.
