"Ah Cheng, are you sure Director Jiang will call us?" The female manager paced around the room anxiously. "Why don't you go back and apologize to the director?"
"Why are you in such a hurry? It's only been 21 hours and 36 minutes, are you really worried that Director Jiang won't use me? " Ah Cheng chuckled but his fingers gripped the leather sofa nervously. His legs shook uncontrollably. "Everything is within my expectations. The crew is probably in a mess by now."
"Is that so?" The female manager looked at Ah Cheng's shaking legs and wavering eyes. She smiled bitterly. "Then we'll have to wait for a little longer."
…
"Jiang Yi, do you know how big of an impact changing the main character will have? Do you know how much effort I've put into getting the company behind them to join me? Do you really think so many people have faith in this movie? "
"I'll try my best to control the cost. Other than that, Ah Cheng's salary is already on the high side, it's completely unreasonable. Compared to him, the actor that I value …"
"That's enough. We can push the shoot back for another 3 days. I think you need some time to calm down." Sister Long hung up. Only Director Jiang and the two scriptwriters were left in the smoke-filled room.
"Director, do we still need to edit the script?" The scriptwriter took out a hat to cover his almost bald head.
"Everyone has worked hard for the past few days. Let's take a break." Director Jiang lit a cigarette and locked himself in the room.
After Han Fei exited the set, he had a good chat with the victims' families. He wanted to get more information, to get to know his roommates better.
The ghosts in other people's eyes were actually roommates living under the same roof in Han Fei's eyes.
Han Fei was using the victims' past experiences and memories to turn these illusory ghosts into real people.
"They won't be able to come back but I will try my best to convey your love and longing for them."
Sitting with the victims' families and listening to their stories, a feeling that Han Fei had never felt before rose in his mind.
There seemed to be a thread between the eerie and horrifying Underworld game and this warm reality. That thread ran through life and death and connected the two together.
Sometimes, Han Fei would wonder if there was a deeper meaning behind the existence of Perfect Life.
At 5 pm, Han Fei was about to bid farewell to the victims' families when he received a call from Li Xue.
After avoiding the family members, Han Fei answered the call.
"Have you found Meng Changan's weakness?"
"It has nothing to do with Meng Changan. As the investigation deepened, we found more and more clues, but all of them pointed to Meng Changxi!" Li Xue's voice came from the other end of the phone, "The report from the black room is out. We found the remains of two people, one belongs to He Shouye and the other belongs to Meng Changxi. In addition, we found the backup video from a few years ago. We found Meng Changxi near the street where He Shouye got into the car accident. Now we suspect that He Shouye didn't die in a car accident, but was murdered by Meng Changxi. "
"Meng Changxi killed He Shouye?" Han Fei set his phone to call mode and then opened the victim relationship map that he had created. "Why would he kill He Shouye?"
Meng Changxi and He Shouye were both murderers. They communicated with each other through some kind of method to kill each other's targets. In order to not expose himself, Meng Changxi killed He Shouye. "
"Is it possible that someone framed Meng Changxi?"
"That possibility cannot be ruled out. That is why we did not issue a wanted order for Meng Changxi." Li Xue's voice changed. "To find the killer of the human jigsaw case, we've dug into He Shouye and Meng Changxi's background. Meng Changxi is a good actor but He Shouye is a real scumbag. He was not a local, he married and had a child in the countryside. We visited his former neighbors and spent a lot of effort to find his ex-wife. "
"Ex-wife?"
"Yes, He Shouye was an honest man before he got married but after he got married, he started to show a different side. Domestic violence and many other perverted hobbies. In the beginning, He Shouye was still suppressing himself. After He Yuhuai was born, the child was weak and had a congenital disease. He Shouye's attitude towards the mother and son became worse and worse. Beating and scolding were the norm. In the end, his wife couldn't take it anymore and ran away. "
"He Shouye threatened his wife many times. He said if she did not come back, he would kill He Yuhuai. In the end, his wife called the police and after that, they divorced.
"The main focus of the couple was the house. Neither of them wanted the child with the congenital disease. According to their former neighbors, the child was very pitiful. He had no friends and was locked up at home. He lived in fear every day and became his parents' punching bag. The child's crying never stopped.
"The neighbors heard He Shouye's angry roar the most. 'Why are you crying? I'll strangle you if you keep crying! '
"Perhaps it was because of his own child, He Shouye hated children. According to his neighbors, He Shouye was normally normal but whenever he heard a child crying, he would go crazy.
"In the end, the property was split evenly and the child was given to the mother. However, what happened next made people sigh. The mother did not want the child. One time, she brought He Yuhuai far away to play hide and seek. In the end, she abandoned the child and left on her own.
"He Yuhuai's mother disappeared with the money. After the police found the child, they had no choice but to send him to He Shouye. You know what happened next. A certain tycoon in Xin Lu had a child with kidney disease. When He Shouye found out his child's kidney matched the man's, he immediately signed some kind of agreement with the tycoon.
"The tragedy started with the child. If only one of his family had shown him some love and was willing to accept him, then the tragedy could have been avoided."
Li Xue explained a lot. After Han Fei listened to her, the image of the crying child from Perfect Life appeared in his mind.
The child who lived below him always stood alone next to the urn. He was a shadow with a blurry face. He had no friends. He kept crying and playing hide and seek with other children.
