"Name."
"Xiao He".
"age."
"23 years old."
What were you doing between 11 PM and 1 AM tonight?
"sleep."
"Have you noticed anything unusual or heard any unusual sounds while you're in the room?"
"No."
"Have you experienced any delays or buffering when using your phone or making calls?"
"Well--"
Xiao He paused for a moment, then said frankly, "This did happen before, but that was because my phone was hacked by a hacker hired by our rival. I already reported it to the police, and you've confirmed the situation with me and investigated the final results..."
The officer who was taking notes paused, looked up at Xiao He, then suddenly realized and lowered his head to continue taking notes: "Yes, I know about this."
Even though he already knew that the two things were unrelated, Xiao He still asked sincerely, "This matter has nothing to do with what you're investigating, right?"
"We still need to conduct an investigation, but please don't worry, we will inform you of the results later."
The officer answered seriously.
"OK, thanks."
The officers then proceeded to question the other individuals.
At this moment, Liu Rulan also arrived.
Upon seeing Liu Rulan, Xiao He was somewhat surprised and ashamed: "Sister Liu, what brings you in?"
Didn't they say that people are no longer allowed to enter or leave the hotel?
Liu Rulan said irritably, "I told them I was also a tenant here and needed to wait to give a statement, and then they let me in."
Although Liu Rulan doesn't often stay in hotels, she still reserved a room for herself so that she could rest directly when she was too busy with work.
So, coincidentally, since something happened here, Liu Rulan was able to enter the hotel using her status as a guest.
“I’ve already sent the new address to Xiaochen. We’ll move out as soon as things are settled here.”
"good."
Xiao He nodded obediently.
"Have you taken care of everything over there?"
Liu Rulan looked at Xiao He and asked in a low voice.
Xiao He did not answer, but simply nodded slightly at Liu Rulan.
"That's good."
Liu Rulan took out her phone and looked through it while saying, "I won't ask about your situation anymore, lest the more you know, the easier it is to expose yourself. Be more careful in the future. We can basically handle things on the internet, so you don't need to interfere anymore. You spend so much money, so let your employees do the work."
"Yes, I know, Sister Liu."
Xiao He reluctantly agreed.
Actually, Liu Jie's side had handled the public opinion before. Liu Jie's fighting ability was remarkable, so he didn't need to get involved. But Qin Lezhang's side was unethical and resorted to hacking, which also involved Xiao He's parents. Naturally, Xiao He was so angry that he personally stepped in to deal with them.
And so, this back-and-forth led to the current situation.
Xiao He himself didn't want this to happen in the first place!
Otherwise, he wouldn't have the energy and time to deal with all this. He has ◆ Nоvеlіgһt ◆ (Only on Nоvеlіgһt) to film and investigate those things at the same time. It's a mess and it goes against his values. Xiao He himself gets angry when he sees it. As a capitalist, it's definitely easier for him to let his employees do the work than for him to do it himself!
After this incident, Xiao He is now completely obedient.
Soon, another group of police officers arrived at the scene and began checking the hotel rooms one by one.
Although their rest was disturbed late at night, everyone wasn't stupid. The police were handling this matter so seriously and conducting thorough searches, so something big must have happened. No one dared to argue with the police at this time, and everyone cooperated with the police's work in a very easy-going manner.
But when hidden cameras were found in a group of guests' rooms, everyone was outraged.
Liu Rulan's face turned pale and then purple as she turned to look at Xiao He.
Xiao He was taken aback for a moment, then comforted Liu Rulan: "It's okay, I didn't get a picture of you."
Liu Rulan rarely stayed in the hotel, so the cameras never turned on her side.
Liu Rulan clicked her tongue lightly: "I'm not worried about myself, I'm worried about you. If they're going to film, they'll definitely film you!"
Xiao He said, embarrassed, "They didn't even take a picture of me."
"Where are the others?"
"Well......"
Xiao He thought of the flashing serial numbers on the surveillance cameras, but ultimately said nothing: "I don't know."
This kind of thing is something the police and the victims only need to know; he didn't need to know, and he certainly didn't investigate it in detail, much less tell anyone else.
This is the victim's privacy and secret.
“Okay, I think I know that too.” Liu Rulan shrugged, her gaze dark. “But now that I think about it, maybe they overheard what happened with Jamies last time. I was wondering how their information network was so good—”
No wonder she couldn't find the person who leaked the information no matter how she checked; it turns out that's the situation all along.
"Nara chooses the victor..."
"Um."
Liu Rulan remained silent, then gritted her teeth and said, "These bastards."
Xiao He recalled his brutal beating just now and subtly rubbed the back of his hand: "Indeed."
...
In the morning, the usually bustling filming area of the ancient town was unusually quiet, with less than half of the film crews present.
Last night's events have caused a sensation throughout the entire filming area. Not only are all the guests at the hotel where the incident occurred suing the hotel and requesting refunds and alternative accommodations, but more than ten surrounding hotels and guesthouses are also experiencing guest self-inspections, with many people changing rooms overnight, leading to a shortage of accommodation in the area. Many people who were originally staying at hotels now have nowhere to go and are forced to search for accommodation in more distant areas.
Even so, many of the original nearby guests chose to check out, preferring to stay in more distant places rather than get involved in the situation here.
Of course, there is another solution—for example, Miss Yuan could simply ask the company to bring her RV over, and she plans to live in the RV for the time being.
Finally able to leave the hotel in the morning, Xiao He originally planned to go back to the nanny van to catch up on some sleep, but then he saw Yuan Sitong's RV in the parking lot.
At first glance, Xiao He's eyes lit up instantly.
It's obvious that Yuan Sitong's RV is different from the RVs Xiao He saw in other film crews. The overall appearance is larger than other RVs, the exterior body outline is exquisite and smooth, and the paint has a silver sheen.
Yuan Sitong and Xiao He arrived at the parking lot one after the other. By now, she had lost the excitement she had when she was gossiping the night before, and looked somewhat listless. When she saw Xiao He, she just greeted him lazily and covered her mouth to yawn: "Good morning, Brother Xiao."
"Good morning."
Xiao He responded politely, then asked with some curiosity, "May I take a look inside your RV from the doorway?"
"sure!"
Yuan Sitong was quite straightforward. She had already stepped onto the stairs with one foot, but she turned around and made way for him, saying, "You can go in and take a look. I'll wait for you at the door."
"Thanks."
This RV has a tall and handsome exterior, but the interior is mostly decorated in pink and white. The first thing you see is a simple toilet with the door closed. Next to it is a temporary table and a long soft leather seat. A little further back is a simple bed with a girly style, with a few pillows piled on it...
The interior clearly shows that Yuan Sitong frequently uses this RV; it must have accompanied her to many film sets. The small blackboard next to it displays numerous photos and signatures from other film crews. Xiao He even saw group photos from the start of filming for "Yu Ye," as well as a group photo from the wrap party after filming wrapped.
Since the car was clean, Xiao He felt embarrassed to step on it and rummage around. So he just looked around at the general layout and size of the space from the doorway before jumping off the car.
"Thank you, Sister Sitong. I'll be going now."
"Okay, sure."
Yuan Sitong yawned again, waved her hand haphazardly, and then "floated" back to the car to catch up on her sleep.
After seeing Yuan Sitong's RV, Xiao He's heart began to stir.
