Chapter 552: Mistress is So Cool
In the afternoon, Gu Ziling met with Hu Ran’s stepmother in a café.
When their eyes met, they immediately knew that they were about to work together again.
“What’s the matter that you call me out for? Tell me.”
“I found that Hu Ran, that little b.i.t.c.h, was trying to dip her hands in the entertainment industry. My friend told me that she and Third Young Master were investigating me. Are they living a life so good that they want to investigate me? I think Hu Ran is tired of being alive already.”
“How do you plan to deal with her?” Gu Ziling asked Mrs. Hu. “Don’t forget that she has regained her mind. She is not that easy to trick.”
“That girl is as pure as water. She has never been contaminated. How will she know the depth of the entertainment industry? I can let my friends help me teach her a lesson. Previously, I thought I could do it by myself, but when I think about you and Second Young Master, you make me want to extend the offer. So if there anything I can help with?”
Gu Ziling laughed.
“Of course, there is! It so happened that the eldest young master of Tiffany & Co. is about to come, and Third Brother is going to meet him. If you can control Hu Ran, we will be able to control Third Brother. Then, it will be impossible for him to continue the collaboration with Tiffany & Co.. Mrs. Hu, if you can really give me this gift, I will be very grateful.”
“Don’t mention it,” said Mrs. Hu. “Give me the exact time and I will do the arrangements.”
“No problem. I will call you again after I go back.”
Now that the old people in Huang Yao were having high hopes for Sheng Bowen, she would embarra.s.s him. She wanted to see how calm Sheng Bowen could remain when Hu Ran was in trouble.
Gu Ziling thought Sheng Kai had no chance to recover from this trouble anymore. But like a blessing in disguise, Hu Ran’s stepmother came to her so suddenly.
Perhaps it was fate.
In the Criminal Investigation Branch, while they were enjoying some tea, they received another call. This time, it involved a female actress.
“As the both of you are here, let’s go.”
The team leader laughed when he heard it. “I think you can just stop attending the university and stay here to help the professor. You will learn faster this way.”
“You’re talking nonsense again. You know what family Qiqi comes from. The scroll is very important to her.” The professor waved his hand. “Besides, they should explore more under the broad sky. Why should they just follow me everywhere I go?”
They laughed and happily departed.
Riding his motorbike, Tang Yan followed behind them.
Mu Qiqi thought that Tang Yan’s motorbike looked sa.s.sy. It did not match his temperament at all.
Soon, they arrived at the crime scene, a villa in Dolphin Bay.
The victim was the owner of this villa. She was also a veteran actress, Shen Qing.
“The victim died on the stairs on the first floor. There are many soft tissue injuries on her body, which should have been caused by her fall down the stairs. But the exact cause of death can only be known after the autopsy.” The policemen who arrived before them explained the situation briefly.
“It was the victim’s manager who found her. Shen Qing did not have a schedule this morning, so she was resting at home and the manager did not disturb her. But when she did not show up at the studio for her drama shoot, the manager called her. She did not answer the call, so her manager came to look for her and found her dead.”
“It should be an accident, right?”
The professor squatted down and looked at the body. He shook his head. “Don’t make a conclusion so quickly.”
“How could there be so much blood if she simply fell down the stairs?” Mu Qiqi looked at the blood pool beside Shen Qing’s body and wondered.
“I suspect that she had internal bleeding. I willonly know after dissecting her body. So, from what we can see for now, the injuries caused by the fall were not fatal.”
“Tsk-tsk, she is such a beautiful actress. It’s a pity that she died like this. I’m still her fan.”
A policeman beside them sighed regretfully. And then, the team leader started a.s.signing tasks to his members.
There was no doubt about her ident.i.ty.
“Professor, when did she die?”
“In between one to three o’clock early in the morning,” replied Mu Qiqi.
The professor smiled and nodded. “That’s right. Around that time.”
Therefore, they had to retrieve the footage of the CCTV from the property management to determine who had entered and exited the villa during that time period. In addition, Shen Qing’s social relations would also be investigated.
“Please be mindful that this case involves the entertainment industry. So, the public will pay attention to it. You must be careful with your words and actions. Don’t disclose anything and let the murderer get any useful information.”
Soon, the police got the footage and from it, they saw three people come to Shen Qing’s villa between one to three o’clock.
Among them was the paparazzo Hu Ran and Sheng Bowen were looking for recently.
This paparazzo was very greedy. He had blackmailed a lot of entertainment insiders before.
More importantly, the paparazzo was the best friend of Hu Ran’s stepmother. She was planning on getting help from this paparazzo for her plan this time. But unexpectedly, he got involved with a murder.
“Qiqi, whether it is in the rich families or the entertainment industry, I hope you can help with public relations.”
“I’ll try my best,” Mu Qiqi replied.
When they were sending the corpse to the forensics laboratory, they noticed that right outside the door was a sea of people from the media.
Since Mu Qiqi was a well-known figure, they naturally rushed forward and surrounded her.
Feng Shanshan laughed seeing this. “This is your mission.”
“Miss Mu… Miss Mu.”
“Can you tell us if Shen Qing is really dead? How did she die? Is it a murder out of love or revenge?”
“Did Huang Fu get someone to do it?”
Hearing their questions, Mu Qiqi was puzzled. “Who is Huang Fu?”
“Huang Fu and Shen Qing fought so hard to get the main lead role of the drama, See-Deep Love. It must be her, right?”
Mu Qiqi noted down the information in her mind and asked, “The police will solve the case as soon as possible. Please don’t make wild guesses and harm other people.”
“Miss Mu, please let us know a bit more.”
“I’m just a forensic doctor. I can’t disclose anything about this case. I’m sorry.”
“Miss Mu.” Everyone rushed forward to get closer, but Mu Qiqi got irritated and she shouted to them.
“Do you want to meet the lawyers of Zhongteng?”
They took a step back quickly.
“You really like to cause chaos in this world.”
…
Soon after, the secretary showed the video of Mu Qiqi in the news to Sheng Xiao. “Chief Sheng, this is the video of the interview with Mistress.”
“This little one is more famous than me lately.” The ends of Sheng Xiao’s lips curled up. “Get some suitable men and send them to her when she asks for them. They must have experience in blocking the media.”
“Okay. I just think that Mistress is so cool.”
