Chapter 242: Starlight Entertainment 04

Back at the police station, Yu Hanjiang quickly found the location of Starlight Entertainments headquarters and the companys legal owner.

It was Shao Qingge?! This was good. Now he didnt have to look everywhere for Chief Shao. He would go meet with Chief Shao first.

Yu Hanjiang immediately acted and drove the police car straight to Starlight Entertainment. The security at the door wanted to stop him but Yu Hanjiang coldly took out his police officer ID. Police officer, please cooperate with the investigation.

The security guards naturally didnt dare to stop the police and let him in, notifying the front desk immediately. The girl at the front desk hurriedly called Chief Shaos assistant. After a while, a tall woman took the elevator downstairs and respectfully brought Yu Hanjiang to the chiefs office on the top floor.

Shao Qingge smiled when he saw Yu Hanjiang and told the assistant, Get this police officer a cup of coffee.

He made a please sit down gesture to Yu Hanjiang and Yu Hanjiang sat on the sofa opposite him. The assistant brought in a cup of coffee and smartly retreated.

Yu Hanjiang raised his eyebrow. Are you the boss of Starlight Entertainment?

Shao Qingge joked, The identity assigned to me is more in line with my temperament.

Yu Hanjiang took a sip of the coffee and spoke lightly, I came to find you so you should have a guess about what has happened?

Shao Qingge put away the jokes and replied in a low tone, There was a death on the first day of the secret room? Are you here to investigate the case?

Yu Hanjiang nodded. I received a report within 30 minutes of entering the secret room. Xiao Lou and I went to the scene just now. The deceased was tortured and killed in a private villa. Her name was Lin Yiyan, a star of your company. Do you have any impressions?

Shao Qingge was taken aback for a moment. In fact, ever since he ended his call with Ye Qi, he had been looking through the data of the celebrities on his computer. There were dozens of stars signed with Starlight Entertainment. Currently, the most popular were the Five-505 female group, the popular young star Cheng Yu and the female star Lin Yiyan.

The moment Yu Hanjiang came in, Shao Qingge had just opened Lin Yiyans folder. His heart was a bit shaken when he heard Yu Hanjiang say this person was dead and he quickly turned the computer screen to show him. I have her information here but I havent had time to read it.

Yu Hanjiang asked while reading the information, Do you have any news about our other teammates?

Shao Qingge told him, Ye Qi is a contracted singer of my company. He will participate in the 505 female groups concert in Binzhou in three days. I had my secretary check Liu Qiao, Teacher Qu, Old Mo and Long Sen. I found that Liu Qiao is the assistant of our companys contracted star, Cheng Yu. Cheng Yu is going to the movie and television studio tomorrow. He picked up a television series called Twin Flowers and it will start three days later. Liu Qiao should be following him.

Movie studio? Yu Hanjiang heard this and couldnt help frowning. It seems that Teacher Qu and the others might be on the crews side.

Are all of us scattered?

Yu Hanjiang speculated. Xiao Ye will go to the concert while Liu Qiao is following Cheng Yu to the television studio. Xiao Lou and I have found a dead person. This secret room is similar to Beacon in Troubled Times and there should be three plot lines.

In Beacon in Troubled Times, there was the rebellion, the death of the young lady of the princes mansion and the assassins from the Yan state. The three plot lines went hand in hand and finally overlapped with each other. After the mystery was solved, all the clues could be linked together.

9 of Hearts was also an A-grade secret room and it wasnt surprising for there to be three plot lines overlapping.

Shao Qingge said, It seems that something will happen on Ye Qis side and in the crew where Liu Qiao is located.

Yu Hanjiang nodded. Thus, we have to quickly sort out the relationship between the first deceased Lin Yiyan and the other stars to see if we can find some clues. Give me the information on the 505 female group and the popular young star Cheng Yu.

Yes, Ill give you a copy of the information. Ill also call Xiao Ye right away and ask Lin Yiyans agent to come over.

He first called Ye Qi and used an excuse for Ye Qi to go back to the company. The moment Ye Qi finished his haircut and heard Chief Shaos words, he asked his agent to send him back to the headquarters of Starlight Entertainment.

Ye Qi knew that something mustve happened when he pushed open the door and saw Yu Hanjiang. He trotted in with a smile. Hello Chief Shao, hello Officer Yu.

Shao Qingge,

Yu Hanjiang,

This upside-down hair style looked like the protagonist of a hot-blooded male anime had entered the fighting state.

Shao Qingge held back a smile and touched his nose. Your hairstyle is quite unique.

Ye Qi blushed and explained softly, It is the shamate style. Teacher Tony gave it to me but Im not satisfied.

Yu Hanjiang coughed slightly, ignored Ye Qis cockscomb hair style and told Ye Qi about the deceased. Ye Qi stared at him. It is the current popular movie queen who died? This is too explosive!

Shao Qingge said, I will control public opinion first and wont announce it temporarily.

Yu Hanjiang nodded approvingly. Xiao Ye, something might happen at the concert in three days. Perhaps the deceased Lin Yiyan has a grudge with the 505 girl group. You have to keep your eyes open at the concert and not miss any clues.

Ye Qi nodded seriously. I understand.

Shao Qingge added, Im not at ease if Ye Qi goes to the concert alone. I will also find an excuse to attend the concert in three days. He paused before continuing, Xiao Ye, you can go back first. As for Liu Qiao in the crew, I will find a way to inform her so that she will meet with the others and keep a close eye on the crews situation.

The owner of an entertainment company had the phone number of all his stars and agents.

The assistants number wasnt available but Shao Qingge could directly contact Cheng Yus agent to ask for it. The agent was a bit confused about what the boss wanted with the assistant but she cooperatively gave Liu Qiaos number to Shao Qingge.

Shao Qingge called. Xiao Liu, its me.

Liu Qiao heard the other persons voice. Chief Shao?!

Shao Qingge handed the phone to Yu Hanjiang and Yu Hanjiang spoke in a low voice. Xiao Liu, the first deceased person has already appeared. There might be an accident in your crew. Keep an eye on the actor Cheng Yu and our other teammates. Dont worry, Professor Xiao and I are investigating the first case and will find a way to join you as soon as possible.

Liu Qiao was taken aback. The first case? Someone has died?

Yes, Starlight Entertainments female star Lin Yiyan was murdered. Cheng Yu and Lin Yiyan are in the same company. Does he know this female star? What is their relationship? You can try to ask him about Lin Yiyan but dont tell anyone about her death.

Liu Qiao replied, I understand.

Yu Hanjiang hung up the phone and copied the information from Chief Shaos computer. Then he told Shao Qingge to call Lin Yiyans agent. Shao Qingges identity meant it was convenient to find someone. If the boss made a phone call then the agent had to run back immediately no matter how busy.

30 minutes later, Lin Yiyans agent hurriedly pushed open the door of the chiefs room.

The agent was a 30 year old man called Qi Ming. He was the companys ace agent who had brought out many popular idol stars. After hearing about Lin Yiyans death, his face became blank and he shook with disbelief. How could it be? You said that she is dead? She just sent me a WeChat message last night!

The man took out his phone and showed how the person called Xiao Yan had sent him a message that said: Brother Ming, I am really tired from shooting Red Dust. I would like to take a few more days off and go on vacation abroad with my family. You should stop looking for me in the next few days. Is it okay to give me some independent space? I will start working immediately when I come back.

Qi Ming had replied: No problem. Youve worked so hard for a whole year. You should take a few days off and have a good rest. I will help you reject the latest jobs. Have fun.

The conversation last night was a simple few words. Scrolling up, all the exchanges were just about jobs.

According to Xiao Lous speculation, Lin Yiyans death time should be more than three days. How could she have sent a WeChat message to her agent last night?

Yu Hanjiang declared coldly, This was sent to you by the murderer.

Qi Ming shuddered when he heard this. You mean that Xiao Yans phone is with the murderer?

The murderer sending a message to the agent was naturally to create the illusion that Lin Yiyan was still alive.

The ice and low temperature of the scene would slow the rotting of the body and make it stink less. Naturally, Lin Yiyans death wouldnt be known. Perhaps a few days later, the agent would look for Lin Yiyan and the murderer would continue to use Lin Yiyans phone to chat with the agent, pretending that Lin Yiyan was still alive

Just then, Yu Hanjiang suddenly received a message from Xiao Lou on his phone that said: The results of the autopsy have come out. Lin Yiyans time of death is after 3 a.m. on Tuesday. Before she died, she drank a lot of alcohol. The bottle was covered with her fingerprints. In addition, there is the skin and hair remaining under her nails. We have checked the gene bank and it belongs to her agent Qi Ming.

Yu Hanjiang put away his phone and his sharp eyes stared at the man in front of him. Where were you last Tuesday in the early morning?
