After rebirth, she first killed the book thief, and she was busy writing articles to save people

That afternoon, the sun was warm, shining through the glass windows of the Italian restaurant, onto the colorful plates, embellishing the dishes with warmth and beauty.

They are like the small, cramped confessionals in a church.

Tao Mindai sat in front of Jiang Baige, chattering on and on about the regret that had almost pushed her to her limit during these days.

She repeatedly said, “If it weren’t for me… maybe she wouldn’t have ended up like this.”

Jiang Baige only then learned that Xiao Bei's body was salvaged from the river three days after her disappearance, and the initial judgment was that she had accidentally fallen into the water.

A beautiful life was lost, but it was an accident.

But was it really an accident? At least in Tao Mindai's heart, it wasn't - and she defined herself as one of the murderers.

She transferred all the money she had, including New Year's red envelopes, income from part-time jobs, and the rest of her scholarship... to Xiao Bei's mother's account.

But it didn't make up for the guilt she felt.

Jiang Baige wanted to say: This has nothing to do with you! You are just kind enough to help your friend...

But looking at Tao Mindai's desperate face, she couldn't say such words.

Tao Mindai has always been optimistic and cheerful. Just like when she was a fan, she openly and passionately loved people she had never met. She also treats people around her wholeheartedly and without any reservation.

So when someone from the crew she had been in before said that there was a big production recruiting actors, she immediately thought of her childhood friend who was working hard to find opportunities in various crews.

You may even feel that you have worked with this person before and there is no problem with him/her, so you will feel more at ease recommending him/her to a friend.

But the result?

Maybe there is no problem with the crew and the people who have worked with her, but the problem is... there are people with problems in this crew.

The person has already passed away. Is there any point in trying to find out who was at fault?

Life is not a revenge novel. She can't give up her own life just to avenge her childhood friend.

Even the law can't punish that man.

This series of thoughts made Tao Mindai even more desperate. Even though she never mentioned Xiao Bei's name from beginning to end, they all knew tacitly who she was talking about.

But there are still some details missing...

Until now, those originally scattered details suddenly became a complete puzzle in front of Jiang Baige:

During the summer vacation of her first year of graduate school, Tao Mindai did intern with a film crew, and the person she was with might have been Sister Zou.

Even that time, Jiang Baige did not participate - in her previous life, she was not interested in this.

Later, in November, not long after the second year of graduate school started, Sister Zou said that a new crew was recruiting. Tao Mindai thought of her childhood friend Xiao Bei and told her the information.

Yu Xiaobei went to the crew for an interview just like in this life.

Tao Mindai might have gone with them, but she might not have been with Yu Xiaobei the whole time, which gave the man an opportunity to take advantage of her.

What happened afterwards...she knew everything.

However, according to Tao Mindai in the previous life, there was a secret between her and Yu Xiaobei that only they knew, and this secret might have caused Yu Xiaobei to go crazy.

But now Tao Mindai even had her travel expenses paid by Yu Xiaobei's mother, which meant that the other party must have known about this matter...

Moreover, in this life, the person who invested in this drama has become Zhao Bi, so will the tragedy of the previous life happen again?

Since the film was shot at a new film and television company and it was still Sister Zou who recruited the people, there is a high possibility that the man is still in the group.

But they don’t even know who that man is!

"White Dove!" Tao Mindai called out from the front. They finally realized that someone was missing. "Why didn't you leave? Did you leave something behind?"

Tao Mindai trotted over to Jiang Baige and said, "Xiao Bei just received a notice saying that she can go for an audition tonight. It's already noon now. Let's go to the hotel and have a meal. She still has to get her hair done, so time is very tight..."

"So fast..." Jiang Baige murmured.

Now all she knew about "that guy" was his position: casting director.

But considering that this person did not give Xiao Bei any role, and was later told by the crew and the company that he had resigned, the authenticity of his position has to be questioned.

Jiang Baige grabbed her hair hard several times.

"What are you doing? Even if you don't have to audition, you shouldn't have such a messy hair..." Tao Mindai noticed that something was wrong with her. "You've been acting weird since just now. You don't know any inside information... Could it be that Xiao Bei's role has already been decided, and she's just a runner-up?"

Tao Mindai's ability of association is so good that even Jiang Baige, a novelist, feels ashamed of herself.

"By the way, is the hotel you booked a triple room?"

"Yeah, you don't know how hard it is to book a triple room... so I had to find an apartment-style hotel, which is more like a B&B."

Because it was still uncertain whether Yu Xiaobei would be selected, and the two of them had no plan to stay here for the entire vacation, and the winter vacation was short, so they did not rent a house like they did last time.

"Can you find a house like this?"

"Oh, no..." As they were talking, the two had already walked over to meet up with Yu Xiaobei. "It was all thanks to Xiaobei. Seeing that I couldn't find a house for a long time, Sister Zou recommended me the houses that they often cooperate with the crew... Of course, we paid for our own house, but it's close to the crew and the price is also reasonable."

Jiang Baige nodded: One advantage of being close to the crew is that she can follow Yu Xiaobei at any time, so she will know who approaches her.

At present, she is still fighting alone because she has no way to explain the whole cause and effect of the incident to Tao Mindai.

"What about you? What are your plans? Are you also going to get a job in the crew?"

Several people got into a taxi.

Because Yu Xiaobei had a lot of luggage, she sat in the front seat with her backpack, while Jiang Baige, Tao Mindai, and a suitcase squeezed together in the back seat.

Yu Xiaobei did not participate in their conversation. As Tao Mindai had said before, she was indeed very introverted.

"I plan to go with Xiao Bei. After all, Auntie gave me money to come here, and I have to do something..." Tao Mindai smiled, "I have already made an agreement with Sister Zou, and we will go together. What about you? Do you want to come with us?"

Considering her physical fatigue, Jiang Baige wanted to rest for an afternoon.

But in the afternoon, she changed her lazy decision - because a man knocked on their door.

"You ordered takeout?"

Jiang Baige heard a knock on the door and asked the other two people, but got a negative answer.

"Who could that be?"

She asked them, and the other two still shook their heads. At this time, someone spoke from outside the door: "I was asked by Sister Zou to come pick you up... It's the casting director of this play, Shen Po."

The words "casting director" touched Jiang Baige's sensitive nerves.

Tao Mindai's hand had already reached the door and she opened the handle: "Oh, you are Brother Shen, nice to meet you."

It looked as if the two of them had known each other for eight hundred years.
