today i died again

Chapter 55 The Fifth Person

Cheng Erqing saw Xia Yu throw the food box he sent directly into the trash can in the screen sent by the system.

"Tsk tsk, what a waste."

After all, he exchanged that thing with points. He is not in good health recently, and it is even more difficult to earn points. Xia Yu is also the same. He throws it away as soon as he wants, and he doesn't think he will feel bad.

System: "He didn't talk to you before, because he saw that you had at least winked, didn't do anything more extreme, and cared about the little affection in the past, now you really dare to do something, I promise, Xia Yu I won't let you go."

Cheng Erqing raised his eyebrows.

"Brother System, look, you're saying something I don't understand again. How about this, why don't you tell me what you're hiding from me now, we can still have a good chat."

System: "...hehe."

Cheng Erqing smiled.

"Don't say it? Pull it down."

He wasn't interested anyway.For him now, the most important thing is to complete the task. As for other things, well, forget it, don't think about it, it's meaningless.

System: "Xia Yu deposited a sum of money into your detective's account, saying it was a reward for your clues."

Cheng Erqing sat up from the bed, "How much?" asked the system.

System: "100."

Cheng Er settled the matter, the price is really good, better than expected.

"However, he also started to doubt you." The system continued.

Cheng Erqing pursed his lips.

"Then the purpose has been achieved."

Wasn't it for this effect that the first clue was sent to Xia Yu?

If the police can't find any clues at the scene, but a private detective has the first clue on the first day of taking the case, it's still a very critical one, and it will make people suspicious no matter what.

Not to mention, the clue was also sent to him by the private investigator as an "unknown person".

The "unknown person" didn't send the clues to the police, the news media, or anyone else, why did they just send them to private investigators?

And it just so happened that it was the detective Xia Yu had just hired?

Where do so many coincidences come from in this world?

Hehe, how many people can believe it?

System: "Xia Yu gave the clues to the police, and at the same time, please ask your friends in the police station to find out the real identity of your 'detective'. I have designed a fake identity for you and blocked the Internet. They will not be able to find you in a short time. any trace of you."

Cheng Erqing: "How short is the period?"

"Just one month." The system replied.

enough.One month, one week of double kills is enough for him to trouble the system to kill eight people.

Not to mention that according to his plan, he would kill everyone who could be killed within half a month.

Thinking about it, Cheng Erqing told the system:

"Good things come in pairs, let's kill Matthew today."

Matthew is one of the 13 people. He is a business tycoon. He is the No. 1 existence in the business world of City T, the top ten first-tier cities in Country S. As for City S, the capital of Country S, that is also true. Speaking.

System: "...Song Yang the day before yesterday, Bai Cai yesterday, and kill them again today—do you want to kill one a day?"

Cheng Erqing: "Early killing is early. Efficiency is very important."

He thinks, long-term pain is worse than short-term pain, it hurts anyway, right?

System: "What hurts?"

It didn't quite understand what the host was thinking just now.

Cheng Erqing laughed and waved his hands: "Nothing hurts. Stop talking nonsense, hurry up."

The most convenient thing about having a system is this——

You don't need to do any dirty work yourself, and the system can handle everything by redeeming points.

Perfectly realized the ultimate killer goal of killing people and getting more goods, without any brain or effort.

A system that roughly understands what the host is thinking: "..."

Forget about the lazy, stupid host!

Xia Yu's mobile phone issued a notification tone for the receipt of a new video.

Xia Yu, who was taking a 2-minute break from chasing clues for several days, opened her eyes suddenly, picked up her phone and turned it on.

He had specially set up that notification tone yesterday, and there was only one number stored in it, and if nothing else happened, the user of the number was the guy who sent him the killing video.

Unlock it, and the video file jumps to the screen.

That video is the same as the previous two, both with four-character names.

This time it's—

Third person

Xia Yu's finger on the top of the screen paused slightly, and finally, he went down and clicked on the video.

In the video, his classmate Matthew was hung from a tree on a cliff halfway up the mountain with his hands tied.In the picture, the person wearing the same mask as before is slowly cutting the tree with a saw.

once, once;

One pull and everything.

In ten minutes, the tree as thick as the mouth of a bowl broke, and Matthew, who was gagged, fell into the misty and boundless mountains.

The masked man appeared to be smiling to the camera and said:

"There will be a fourth, trust me."

Xia Yu held the phone tightly and almost crushed it.

……

"The strength is really weak."

Cheng Erqing looked at the screen sent by the system and commented.

This world's restrictions on Xia Yu's power must be too great, even a mobile phone can't be crushed.

System: "Except for you, other human beings are ordinary people, without supernatural powers or superpowers, this is called normal."

Cheng Erqing understood.

"You mean I'm abnormal?"

Hehe, abnormal is not normal, he doesn't want to be like those ordinary people, if he really wants to be the same, he just needs to rely on his intelligence level, if he wants to complete the task, let's dream.

The phone rang, it was a text message from the little assistant.

"Mr. Cheng, 'Xinghui Entertainment' called and said that they would like to treat you to a meal and talk about the new play. When are you free?"

After the first episode of the program was broadcast yesterday, Cheng Erqing, in line with the principle of "time is precious", took the time to participate in the screening of several new dramas. Going on, as the employer, you can participate in any show if you want to.

In the plan, he has to shoot enough scenes, so many that after one or two months, more than 80.00% of the plays that will be played on large and small screens will be him as the leading role.

He wanted Xia Yu to see him, to see him anytime and anywhere, with only him in his eyes.

In order to achieve this goal, he also spent a lot of money to buy the most conspicuous advertising spaces of well-known landmark buildings in the country and even the world. It is estimated that soon, promotional videos or pictures featuring him as the protagonist will be placed in those places.

In this world, he doesn't have Xia Yu, but he has enough money, and if he has money, he can get what he wants.

No matter which space-time rules are the same.

Cheng Erqing sent a reply to the little assistant and made an appointment.

"Xinghui Entertainment" is just one of the many companies he has found that will be filming a new movie in the near future. In addition, there are eight other companies waiting for him to make a set.

As the largest investor in the nine major dramas, the amount of funds allocated by him was so large that the recipients were dumbfounded. Therefore, almost all the recipients accepted his conditions—with him as the protagonist, and the scripts were changed by him. , The main characters in the play are determined by him, the progress of the script shooting is planned by him, and the shooting location is selected by him.

Of course, he is also responsible for all the expenses before and after the shooting.

In short, this time, he is the boss, he has the final say.

System: "Your body may not be able to hold on like this."

Cheng Erqing smiled indifferently: "You said, it can last at least three months, don't worry."

He is not worried.

He must complete the task, and at the same time... Well, I can't think about it. If I think about it clearly, the system will know, and maybe it will disagree with his plan.

Can't think, can't think.

"By the way, have you finished the scripts of the nine plays?"

Cheng Erqing asked the system.

System: "Including the sub-camera, on-site specific scheduling, and precautions are all done. The staff you asked for are all in place, and I'm waiting for you to join the group and start shooting."

"Okay, send the whole set of the script to the nine crews, and tell them that the filming will start tomorrow afternoon. All personnel are required to be in place. In addition, from the start of filming, the daily wages of each staff member are calculated at three times the normal salary , if there is a major holiday, the settlement will be five times. If the shooting progress is normal, it will be doubled in one week."

He is really glad that the point exchange rate given by the system in this world is 100 point to [-] million. Now, the most he has is money.

They all have to be used.Otherwise, he can't take it with him when he leaves, what a pity.

……

At the same time, Xia Yu was checking some information about Matthew with the police, as well as some things that happened during his last contact with Matthew recently.

Police: "We can basically conclude that the murderer killed people who had a close relationship with you. The biggest similarity is that the three victims are all pursuing you, or have pursued you. In other words, the murderer treats you like A lot of paranoid possessiveness."

"is it?"

Xia Yu paused, then said in a cold voice, "You want to say that the murderer likes me or even... loves me, right?"

The police nodded.

"The result of the expert's analysis is this. In addition, the other party is a person with extremely high computer skills. The experts have not found any traces that can be regarded as clues in several videos. Also, whether it is from the background environment analysis in the video or According to the results of the audio scan, the voice of the other party has changed completely, and the shooting background is even more weird."

"Weird?"

Xia Yu looked at the policeman, "What do you mean?"

"The sound is completely synthesized. There is no trace of natural human voice. According to the pictures, we did find the crime scene. From the surveillance video of the crime scene, combined with the approximate time of the victim's death, we concluded that ——It is impossible for someone to appear in those places during the time limit when the victim was killed. This is the most weird place."

It was as if the murderer brought the victim to the scene of the murder out of thin air and committed the crime.

Xia Yu was silent for a while, then asked:

"Where's the detective?"

The policeman shook his head: "The detective has no news at all. The account you sent the money to is an empty account, and there is no such person; the money in the account has also been withdrawn. In addition, the registration information of the private detective agency is all fake. Yes, including the ID number."

Xia Yu: "...Have you checked all the people around me?"

Police: "We have investigated all suspicious persons, and have not found any problems for the time being."

Xia Yu clicked on the phone's photo album and showed the phone to the police.

"What about this person? Is there a problem?"

The police looked carefully at the person in the photo album. It was a profile photo, but the facial features were clearly visible.

"I don't know. This person has not been investigated." The police said.

Xia Yu froze for a moment.

He really just asked one more question. After all, the person who appeared suddenly, the time of appearance coincided with the time of the crime, and he had such a relationship with him, so it should be within the scope of police investigation and suspicion. .

But it turned out to be "no investigation"?

and so--

Is that indescribable feeling in his heart true?

Is that guy whom I haven't seen in 12 years really related to these three murders?
