Chapter 354: Death on Set

Translator: Lonelytree

Mo Li shook her head. Of course, she would not be so foolish. However, Luo Cong wouldn’t come looking for her for no reason. She needed to look into this.

Mo Li looked at Ah Ao and thought of something. She called Quan Yu. “Has Xiao Yue contacted you recently?”

Quan Yu thought the girl finally remembered him when he saw her number, but he didn’t expect her to call him to ask about another woman.

Quan Yu kicked the dead body underneath him. He had been discharged from the hospital, and he was resting at the Quan Family’s villa at Pearl River. Due to his heart problem, he recovered slower than average. Ah Si was out to complete Quan Yu’s order, and Ah Zhong had gone on holiday with Rou Rou and Jiang Yao. This left Quan Yu vulnerable.

There has to be more than one traitor in the gang, or else how would these people find me here?

However, when Quan Yu replied, his tone was unchanged, like he didn’t just kill several people minutes ago.

“No.” For some reason, Quan Yu felt rewarded. Perhaps hearing her voice was the reward he had for surviving the latest assault on his life.

If it’s not Xiao Yue, who can it be??Mo Li then remembered something.?That day at the hospital that Miss Lu taunted me.

In the original book, Lu Ke and Mo Li allied because one of them liked Quan Yu and the other liked Han Xu. When Lu Ke saw Mo Li at the hospital with Quan Yu, she was mad. The girl would have to remove Mo Li from Quan Yu’s side. She could find Luo Cong for that purpose.

With this in mind, Mo Li hung up.?I have allowed these people free reign for too long. If I don’t do something soon, they’ll just keep on annoying me. But I don’t have time to deal with them. Mo Zheng’s surgery, Mo Xiao’s surgery, Quan Yu’s heart, and that strange Flower Appraisal organization take up time.

“Ah Ao, get me some people to keep an eye on Xiao Yue and Lu Ke. Report back to me if you find anything.”

“No problem, madam boss!” Miss Mo Li sounded just like young master.?People always say that couples will get more and more alike, it looks like it’s true.

Initially, Mo Li rejected the term Madam Boss, but she eventually got used to it. Sometimes her cheeks would burn from being addressed that way.

As they reached the Mo Family’s old manor, Mo Li’s phone rang.

“Hello?” As she answered the call, Mo Li’s face turned serious. She told Ah Ao. “We need to get to Zhu Zhou Studio Lot now.”

When Mo Li arrived, the location had been cordoned off. Kang Zhi reported seriously to Xiao Rui. “Since today is Friday, everyone was given an early break from work. However, the prop leader, Wang Tao returned to the studio lot because he left something behind. He noticed that the door to the prop room was left open. He walked in and noticed the door to the filming studio which should be locked was pried open. He entered and found the female lead for the drama “The Legend of Jin Ying”, Qi Yan died inside.”

Mo Li looked into the studio. Qi Yan’s body was still there, dressed in her show costume.

“The Legend of Jin Ying” was a romantic fantasy drama. The female lead, Fu Jinying was a half-human half-bat demon. Therefore, Qi Yan was dressed in a white dress and fitted with a set of prosthetic teeth.

Mo Li accepted the gloves from Qin Xuan and nodded her thanks. She then closed her hands around the stakes which had been impaled into Qi Yan’s hands. Mo Li eased the stake out of the body and placed it inside the evidence bag.

As Mo Li removed the fake teeth, she noticed something stuck on Qi Yan’s real teeth. She took the tweezers from Qin Xuan, removed the small item, and placed it inside a small jar.

“Can you tell the time of death?” Xiao Rui walked down and knelt down beside Mo Li.

“There’s greenish discoloration on her lower abdomen and rigor mortis has set in. There are death spots on her back too. The time of death should be around 30 hours ago, or Thursday morning, between 7 am to 9 am.”

“She applied for a 2-day leave and no one saw her until her body was discovered. The director even had to shoot other people’s scenes first because she was not around.” Xiao Rui just took a look at Qi Yan’s schedule. Her filming schedule was packed, but for the past 2 days, she had left it conspicuously empty.

“Is she stabbed to death by the mahogany stake?”

“The fatal wound is a blow through the heart but whether this is the murder weapon, I’ll have to do more tests. I need to look at the depth and shape of her wound. action

“Speaking of, there is a flake of something between her teeth. And her nails have been painted an egg white color. Those should all be tested.”

Mo Li just finished when another sound shouted, “So? Do you want us to stop shooting? Do you want to see our company go bankrupt? So what if the female lead’s dead? We’ll just replace her. In fact, I’ve brought along a new actor with me today, we’ll use her!”
