Money can really do whatever it wants

Although Chen Mo admitted that she was right, his excited tone and demeanor did feel a bit fanatical.

But then I thought about it, it seemed unlikely that I would come here if I wasn’t a huge fan.

"She is very beautiful." Chen Mo nodded. This was definitely what he meant. He was attracted to her the first time he saw her yesterday.

"Then it was her that you saw in the elevator that day." The tall girl who spoke first did not forget their purpose because of the Amway idol.

"They all wore masks, but judging from their body shapes and eyes, I felt they were very similar." Chen Mo was naturally sure, but the subsequent encounters were too complicated to explain, so he gave an uncertain answer.

Cheng Xiao has a very distinctive figure. When Chen Mo said this, the four of them immediately recognized him and continued to ask: "Then did you notice which floor they went to?"

Chen Mo knew the answer was level 7.

But he lowered his head and thought for a moment, then shook his head: "I haven't noticed it, but it should be above the 6th floor."

Chen Mo didn't know the true purpose of the other four, and there was no need to reveal everything he knew. Especially when a murder occurred on the seventh floor, it was better to avoid causing trouble.

Seeing that they could not ask more questions, the four girls did not continue to entangle, but began to chat with each other, but the topic was not their idols, but the current murder case.

After all, this resulted in everyone being temporarily unable to leave the hotel.

Chen Mo did not participate in this topic. Instead, he put his phone on the table, put on his headphones and watched the video, but turned off the sound and focused mainly on the chat content of the four people next to him.

They mentioned the same content as Lao Du, that is, the victim was a Korean woman.

If this is true, then it is likely to be related to their idol, although the name Cheng Xiao sounds like a Chinese.

What makes Chen Mo even more concerned is that even a person like him, who has only met a few times, is a little worried about whether Cheng Xiao is involved in the case or even becomes a victim because of her charming appearance.But these four girls claimed to be her fans. When they mentioned the murder case, their expressions did not show worry or worry, but more of a sense of... irritability.

It is normal for this kind of emotion to appear in other people, but these people already knew from themselves that Cheng Xiao lived above the 6th floor, that the 7th floor was the place where the crime occurred, and that the victim was Korean, or at least someone from Korea.

Shouldn't we be more worried about the safety of our idols?

Although all this has nothing to do with Chen Mo at present, he still put a question mark on the actual identities of these four people.

After finishing the breakfast on the plate, in order not to appear too suspicious, Chen Mo did not continue to listen and sat for a few more minutes before leaving the table.

Hotel staff have notified everyone and asked guests not to leave the room unless they have something important to do.There are also more police officers in the corridor. It seems that things are quite serious. The so-called rumors are very likely to be true.

The 7th floor of the elevator has been labeled prohibited from use, and other floors have not been affected yet.

When Chen Mo returned to the room, the small group was already very lively.

Chapter 38 Breaking News

In the information age, news spreads very quickly. Jinshitan is a well-known place across the country. The occurrence of such a case naturally aroused great concern.Although the specific details are still confidential, various gossips are already flying all over the sky.

The four women, including Lu Wenyin, have forwarded a lot of messages, most of which came from major community forums. Some said the deceased was Korean, some said he was raped and killed, and some said it was a Korean gang meeting in China that ended in a riot. Yes, it is also said to be an underground snobbish struggle between China and South Korea.

In short, although the police issued a statement asking everyone not to believe or spread rumors, it did not stop people's enthusiasm for eating melons.Most of the content must be fabricated out of thin air, but from Chen Mo's current perspective, there is indeed some highly credible information.

Just as Chen Mo was flipping through his phone, a text message suddenly came.The delivery speed of Dongdong's local warehouse is very fast. At about ten o'clock in the morning, the deliveryman delivered the items and asked him to go down and sign for them.

Although he cannot leave the hotel for the time being, there is still no problem in picking up a courier at the door, but the contents of the package must be inspected by two policemen at the door.

Naturally, a brand new unopened computer and an empty backpack passed the inspection easily.After returning to the room, Chen Mo installed some necessary software and uploaded a copy of the photos of the girls on his phone to the website given by Luo Changhao.

Chen Mo had visited that website several times in the past two days. Most of the posts were difficult to understand and it was difficult to read English, but he still read some.The network disk function of this website is really easy to use. Since he was invited to join by Luo Changhao, he directly obtained the qualification of a senior user, with 200G of network disk space, and VIPs above that need to pay.The most common VIP1 costs US$10 a month, and VIP5 costs US$50. These users can enter different sections to speak, and of course have larger storage space.As a premium user, Chen Mo can only enter the public section and can post at most once and leave messages 1 times a day.

Unfortunately, it does not support common domestic payment methods.

Chen Mo took a look at Luo Changhao's account at that time. It seemed that it did not belong to any of the levels, but had a "CC2" mark. It was speculated that it should be a special level such as "community contributor".

The hotel's internet speed is very fast, and after finishing these things, it's still a while before lunch time.He directly opened the web version of the forum on his computer and started reading.

At this time, a shocking news suddenly appeared and quickly appeared on the forum homepage.

This post is not only related to this matter, but also many other things.

The poster claimed to be an entertainment reporter and broke the news that Cheng Xiao, a member of the group Cosmic Girls, had recently secretly returned to China and was negotiating with a domestic entertainment company to star in a TV series heroine.It was said to be a negotiation, but in fact, SE Company had already negotiated the price, and Cheng Xiao and others were just used as bargaining chips to sleep with him.

Later, the person also showed several photos, which were photos of two women and one man clearing customs, leaving the airport and checking into the hotel, as well as a short video. Although it was not particularly clear, and the two women were wearing masks in most of the photos, Chen Mo was sure. The person in the photo was indeed the Cheng Xiao he saw.

He even took out a recording, which was in Korean. He also provided a translation below. It was said to be a recording made by a supervisor of SE Company during a phone call.Basically, the investor asked Cheng Xiao to come to China to "accompany him" by name, and the manager discussed the details after receiving the instructions from above.

This translation has also been affirmed by netizens who understand Korean below, and there is no error.

Later, he said that the murder was caused by something going wrong in the final step.According to the unspoken rules of the Korean entertainment industry, sleeping with idols does not require telling them in advance, let alone asking for permission.Anyone asked by the company to accompany them will be sent directly there.In China, this kind of transaction is a three-party transaction, but in South Korea, it is a matter between entertainment companies and dignitaries.

The problem lies here. Cheng Xiao, as a Chinese, does not accept the unspoken logic of South Korea and refuses to make such sacrifices just to star in a small-budget movie that is not too expensive. The other party is still a middle-aged man. Executives.

The poster even posted photos of Cheng Xiao and the boss eating and playing together. This time everyone in the photos showed their faces. What shocked Chen Mo in particular was that one of the photos even showed Taken in the private room of the hotel last night.

Of course, the above are just the foreshadowing, what really shocked everyone was the content behind it.

This person said that last night, the SE Company gave an ultimatum to the brokers and managers in charge of the portfolio, requiring that the transaction must be completed.So the investor got the room key and broke into her room drunkenly with the intention of taking it by force. In the end, Cheng Xiao was accidentally strangled to death during the fierce resistance.

This post quickly detonated the entire forum, and many other communities also reprinted it.

Soon some good technical netizens analyzed the interview videos of the supervisor and found out that the person in the recording had a high probability of actually being the supervisor himself.

Chen Mo looked at those videos and saw that it was the tall man who appeared with Cheng Xiao and another woman.Chen Mo heard him speak several times, and even had a brief exchange. The voice was indeed very similar to the one in the recording.

Naturally, there is no need to mention the more intense scolding war between fans and anti-fans. The focus of most fans is still on the last part.

Although the previous content cannot be said to be conclusive evidence, except for fans of Korean idols, everyone knows something about the Korean entertainment industry, and what the poster provided is enough to convince the masses.However, the more explosive revelations that followed did not have much evidence, and even provided a lot of details, which made everyone not sure whether it was true or not, but also cast doubt on the identity of the poster.

Some people even wrote articles on other community platforms to analyze and say that if this information is true, the poster may be the murderer.

At the same time, it also triggered people's speculation about the identity of the investor.

Since things are happening in Lianhai, it is natural to consider the big guys in Lianhai. However, the threshold for investing in online dramas is not high. There are so many people who meet the requirements that you can almost only guess blindly, so those who make a fuss about this aspect Not too much.

More people simply said that they could not believe the content in the second half. After all, as far as these revelations are concerned, there is actually nothing that can be confirmed.

Later, some forum bosses analyzed that although the first half to the request to sleep with him may be true, this is China after all, not South Korea.In addition to SE, Cosmic Girls also has elements from Lehua Entertainment. Because the domestic circle has so many resources, it is generally pretty good-looking. Although idols are unwilling to dedicate themselves, although they cannot get additional high-quality resources, it is unlikely. Come to the step of using strength.If Cheng Xiao refuses to do this deal, at most he will not be able to get the starring role and his status in the team will be reduced.The second half should not be believed to be true until police release more information.

This opinion is also agreed by many people. Both the melon-eaters and Cheng Xiao fans can generally accept this statement.

In short, the popularity of the whole thing quickly rose to a new level.

The most critical issue now, and certainly the issue that Chen Mo is most concerned about, is Cheng Xiao's condition.However, it was only an hour after the earliest post was posted, and neither the police nor SE officials have yet responded.The post was deleted by the forum administrator after it attracted enough attention, but the content had already spread across the Internet.

The last time Chen Mo saw Cheng Xiao was when he picked up the car last night, probably around ten o'clock in the evening.Looking back now, the other party's state was indeed very abnormal. His first reaction when he saw him parking the car was very panic. At that time, he only thought it was a girl's instinct at night, but now he thought he was in a dilemma.Maybe he didn't go back to the hotel so late because he was struggling, or maybe he had a premonition of something.

At this time, Mo's Penguin sounded a reminder, and it turned out that it was Xia Siheng and Gong Shizheng who asked him to have lunch.He had just been concentrating on eating the melon without feeling anything, but now he was really hungry. Chen Mo closed the lid of the computer and walked out of the room.

The other two people have already taken a seat in the restaurant. Since the residents are not allowed to leave for the time being, there are many more people here than usual.

After casually ordering three dishes and one soup, a few people sat around and started chatting about what happened today.

The post that Chen Mo saw before has been circulated. Xia Siheng and Gong Shizheng both agree with the big man's statement. However, being at the place where the crime occurred, they can naturally feel some differences in the surrounding atmosphere.

It was the hotel service staff who reported the crime, and a lot of information had been leaked from them before the police arrived.Although the police asked all insiders to keep the information confidential, the best they could do was to keep the information from spreading. The spread of the information in the hotel could not be completely restricted under any circumstances.

"I was chatting with a hotel security guard in the morning, and I found out that the person who died was indeed a Korean woman, but it seemed that she was not strangled to death, but suffocated by a pillow." Gong Shizheng has a talent for getting along well with everyone. It's not surprising to be able to pull something out in one morning.

"You can't believe everything they say. After a thing is recounted three times, it often has nothing to do with the original appearance." Xia Siheng swallowed the bacon in his mouth, not completely believing these words.

At this time, several policemen walked into the restaurant. After chatting with several staff members who came out of the kitchen, several waiters walked out pushing several trolleys with lunch boxes. It seemed that they were for food. Working meals provided to police officers who are unable to leave their posts.

The police could not block the hotel for too long, and after the explosive post appeared, they also faced great pressure from public opinion.Up until this point, the police had only issued a simple notice of the case. Until the case is solved, the relevant details need to be kept strictly confidential. This is also the time for reporters from various media to play their part.

Sure enough, some people started to try to strike up a conversation with a few police officers, probably trying to trick out some situations, including the tall girl with glasses among the girls who chatted with Chen Mo in the morning.

Perhaps because she was tired of this, a female police officer turned around and repeated the police's confidentiality principle in handling cases to those people, and actually to the people around them.

Chen Mo originally had his back to the door of the restaurant, but suddenly he felt that the voice was very familiar, so he stopped holding the chopsticks in his hands and looked back, and it turned out to be Yang Wenyu.

The male policeman next to him was Liao Suifei, who went to Chen Mo's house the day before yesterday.

A case with such a huge impact would naturally have to be taken over by the city bureau. Although it was unexpected for them to see it, it was also reasonable.

"What's wrong, Chen Mo?" Gong Shizheng saw that Chen Mo kept turning his head and reached out his hand to pat him.

"Nothing, there are two policemen over there that I know." Chen Mo came back to his senses, picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"Know?" Xia Siheng, who was immersed in drinking soup, raised his head.

"It can't be considered acquaintance. They visited my house before and met once. The policewoman's name is Yang Wenyu, and the man on her left is Liao Suifei." Chen Mo knew Xia Siheng's thoughts and waved his hand to indicate that he should not let himself go. If you use clichés to build relationships, you can only say that he and the other party have a one-sided relationship.

After lunch, the police began to investigate the hotel guests. Chen Mo stopped by the hotel lobby to print out a new slave contract, and then returned to the room to wait for the police to find him.

The person who found Chen Mo was not an acquaintance of his, but a male police officer. The two police titles showed that he was actually a police academy intern.Naturally, the interview could not be conducted in the guest's own room, so the police officer wanted to take Chen Mo to a guest room on the 7th floor that was decorated as a conference room.

When Chen Mo walked out of the room, a line of words suddenly appeared in his mind.

[Model Citizen: Although everything that happened seems to have nothing to do with you, your curiosity still drives you to understand the truth. Through logical calculation, the system found that you have been involved in this case with a high probability. Now please try your best to help the police find out Real murderer. 】

Chen Mo almost stumbled and fell to the ground when he saw this mission.

"Be careful." The policeman who took Chen Mo out had quick eyes and quick hands, and quickly supported him with a half-smile on his face. He thought he was walking on level ground and his left foot collided with his right foot.

"Can't you tell me the truth directly?" Chen Mo was speechless about this system.

Chapter 39 Being interrogated again

[The system can only use AI to predict the general direction of the known information, and finds that among the many possible development directions, there are many routes related to you, and it is not really a prediction of the future. 】

Chen Mo sighed, is this the legendary thing about eating melon and eating it on your own head?

As for assisting the police in handling cases, Chen Mo didn't even think about it.This is not like those police officers from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department who can only rely on detectives to solve crimes. He is an ordinary citizen who cannot even understand the facts of the case. How can he have such a chance.

Fortunately, the system never mentioned any penalties for not completing the task, so I just let it go.

Chen Mo tried his best to recall what he knew about the whole thing. The system could only obtain information through his feelings, so he must have overlooked some details that he should have captured but did not care about.

Of course, the system is a super-civilized AI after all, and it is impossible for a barely enhanced ordinary person to compare with it.

By this time, Mo and the policeman had arrived on the seventh floor.

There are two aisles coming out of the elevator. The right side is blocked by a blockade. Two heavily armed policemen are guarding it. It seems that the crime occurred on this side. There are obviously more policemen here. In these few seconds, At that time, Chen Mo had already seen six or seven people passing around the corner.

The rooms where inquiries were being conducted at the same time were all on the left. Chen Mo followed the policeman and walked into the second door.

The people who conducted the inquiry were two very young male police officers, a third-level superintendent and a second-level superintendent.

After both parties briefly introduced themselves, they got down to business.

"Hello, Mr. Chen, what we are doing now is a routine question, not an interrogation of you. Don't be nervous, just tell us what you know. Of course, you also have the right to refuse to answer questions or leave at any time. "The third-level superintendent was the first to speak. He gave Chenmo a complete explanation of the inquiry and his rights.

Although he had very little contact with the police before, such a complete and detailed process did not seem to be common. Chen Mo looked to both sides and could tell from the serious expressions of other police officers around him that this case indeed faced some very special circumstances.

"I must tell you everything I know. It is our obligation to cooperate with the police, and you are also responsible for us in solving the case quickly." Chen Mo moved the paper cup of tea in front of him to his right hand.

While he was reading posts on that mysterious website these days, there was a person named Eric who specialized in analyzing the police's psychological game during questioning and interrogation through video recording. This person was of a very high level, also CC level.In one of his posts, he mentioned that moving objects between the two parties will lower the psychological defense of the person being questioned. If it is done by the person being questioned, it can bring the two parties closer to a certain extent. Psychological distance.

In one of his earliest posts, this Eric claimed to have a PhD in psychology, but his English writing style was quite written and stiff, and he was probably not a native English speaker.

The content of routine inquiries will not be anything special, just some routine questions.

"Where were you from ten o'clock last night to two o'clock in the morning?" Now it was the second-level superintendent who asked.

"I took my car out of the hotel's underground garage and parked it in the front parking lot, which is more convenient. Then I went back to the room around 10:30 and never came out again." Chen Mo's answer was quite simple, or rather During the period of time when the police asked them, most people did not have too complicated itineraries.

It has only been about 12 hours since the crime occurred. The forensic doctor's estimate of the time of death should be more accurate. There is no need to keep the time of the crime secret. Many people may not be able to fully remember the four-hour trip.

"Have you seen these four people?" The police placed four photos on the table. It was the two men and two women, one of whom was Cheng Xiao.

"I've seen it." Chen Mo took a look at the photo and replied with certainty.

When he raised his head, he found that the eyes of the two policemen in front of him were shining, and they seemed to be interested.

"Can you tell me when and where you saw it?"

"To be precise, I have only seen these two men and her, it should be Cheng Xiao." Chen Mo pointed at the photo of Cheng Xiao. After quickly recalling it, he realized that he had not seen the other woman who appeared together. In appearance, the other party always wears a mask.

"Go on." The two policemen looked at each other and did not answer directly, but the answer was obviously yes.

"I met them in the elevator the night before yesterday. I think it should be these three people." Chen Mo pointed to the three people except the middle-aged man. "They were all wearing masks. I didn't know who they were at that time. Yesterday afternoon we went to the diving shop and met four of them. The two women were also wearing masks, but I saw the two men. These are the two of them. When we went to dinner in the evening, we met them again in the hotel. I bumped into Cheng Xiao in the corridor. She didn't wear a mask this time, so I was sure it was her. Then I met again This tall man seemed to be looking for someone, so I said a word to him and went back to the box."

Chen Mo felt his mouth was a little dry, so he picked up the paper cup next to him and drank the water in one gulp.

"So when you say you've only seen three, you mean you haven't seen this woman's face?" The interrogating policeman took advantage of the opportunity between Chen Mo and Shui to ask.

"Yes, the last time I saw Cheng Xiao was around 10 o'clock, around 10:[-]. When I drove the car out of the underground garage, she was sitting next to a flower bed on the side of the hotel. I stopped the car and talked to her. In two sentences, she said that she was tired from walking outside and was sitting down to rest. This situation usually means that she has no interest in talking to me, so I didn't ask for trouble." Chen Mo squeezed the paper cup in his hand and said just now He hesitated for a moment whether to say the last part.

"Wait here for a moment." The second-level superintendent stood up, poured another glass of water for Chen Mo, and then walked out of the room.
