Chapter 288: The Little Actor
Zhou Hao is a small-time actor whose lineage is unknown. Most of the time he can only play minor roles. When the market is not good, he also does jobs like extras and has played the role of a corpse many times.
He didn't know what kind of luck he had that day, but someone actually asked him to play the role of a gangster.
He knew this big boss, who was a well-known wealthy boss in Jingzhong City.
Once when he was playing a supporting role, someone said that he looked a bit like the big guy named Zhao Zhixiang. While saying that they looked alike, that person looked at him, shook his head and sighed, and also said that they were same people with different fates.
He can still feel the man's contemptuous look and secretly swears in his heart that one day he will make him look at him with new eyes.
He originally thought that the man named Yu Ming brought him back to film a movie with him.
When he was brought in front of Zhao Zhixiang, he didn't understand what was going on. The big boss he dreamed of becoming stood in front of him, looking him up and down, making him feel creepy.
Later, they told him to play the role of the boss himself, either filming a movie or pretending to be the boss at work for a few days, because the boss himself had other things to do and needed someone to keep things under control in the company.
They paid him ten times his usual income, and every day he imitated the boss's every move, ate the same delicious food as the boss, wore the same expensive clothes, and pretended to be the real boss.
What a great day like this!
After three or four days of training, he was ready to bluff people, so he officially took up the job. Every day, he was surrounded by people, and many people bowed and scraped to him. He felt extremely satisfied psychologically, and almost took it seriously.
Hearing the door being pushed open, he deliberately did not turn around and slowly smoked his cigar, but the person behind him did not make any sound.
So he turned around curiously, wanting to see who was so blind as to be so disrespectful to his boss.
But when he turned around and saw a group of armed policemen standing at the door, he thought it was an illusion. He took off his sunglasses and looked carefully. He was so scared that he almost slipped off his chair and was completely stunned.
Not only was he stunned, Qi Lei and the others were also stunned.
This person is not Zhao Zhixiang!
Although he looks about 60% similar to Zhao Zhixiang, his clothes and even hairstyle are the same as Zhao Zhixiang's, and he looks almost the same as Zhao Zhixiang when wearing glasses, but when he takes off his glasses, you can see a clear difference.
"We are the police. Who are you? Why are you pretending to be Zhao Zhixiang?!" Qi Lei showed his ID.
"Comrade police officer, I'm just a little actor. Someone invited me to come here to act for a few days. I really didn't do anything bad!"
Zhou Hao's face turned pale with fear. Having seen so many acting scenes, he could still figure out what was going on in this situation. He thought it was a pie in the sky that would hit him on the head, but now he realized that it was just a pie in the sky. He was just a chess piece and was being used by someone.
I don’t know what terrible bad thing that big guy did, but so many police came to arrest him. This is too much blame for him to bear.
He quickly told Yu Ming how he found him, how he was hired to act, and what he had done in the past few days, repeatedly emphasizing that he was just a small actor and had done nothing.
After failing to catch Zhao Zhixiang, Qi Lei quickly reported the situation to Captain Zhai and notified all traffic departments to cooperate in the interception. Although he knew it might be too late, Zhou Hao had started replacing Zhao Zhixiang at work two days ago and appeared in various occasions. The team members they were monitoring were far away and did not notice anything unusual.
If he had started to escape two days ago, it would have been difficult for them to find him.
Zhou Hao was taken back to the criminal investigation team. Qi Lei repeatedly confirmed the details with him, while Su Xiaoxiao checked the surveillance footage to find out when he left and in what image he left.
They have actually secretly set up control in places like stations and docks a long time ago. Now it all uses a real-name system, so he definitely wouldn't take public transportation under his own identity.
It is very likely that he drove himself, but he would not use his own car because it would be easy to be discovered, so we first need to confirm what time and how he left.
Two days, even without taking a plane, was enough time for him to travel thousands of miles.
According to Zhou Hao's account, he had been living and eating with Zhao Zhixiang these days. After he started working two days ago, Zhao Zhixiang disappeared and no one else in the villa was there either. Yu Ming came to pick him up and drop him off personally every day.
However, he mentioned a strange thing. He said that Zhao Zhixiang's villa was haunted.
There is a basement in the villa which is always locked. Yu Ming told him that it has been haunted recently and told him not to go near it.
After Zhao Zhixiang left, one night he ran to the door of the basement out of curiosity. Unexpectedly, he really heard a ghost voice, a vague voice that echoed in his ears intermittently. He was so scared that he quickly ran back to the room, closed the door tightly, and never dared to run near that place again.
Haunted, Qi Lei doesn't believe it?! There must be something wrong with the basement.
Qi Lei and his men prepared to go to Zhao Zhixiang's villa to take a look, maybe they could find some clues.
When passing by Su Xiaoxiao, he saw her checking the surveillance camera, so he asked her if she had discovered anything. Su Xiaoxiao said no, yet.
Just as he turned to leave, Su Xiaoxiao suddenly called him, "Captain Qi, I'll go with you."
Qi Lei was about to say no, but he saw that Su Xiaoxiao's face looked very serious.
"Did you foresee something bad happening?"
Ever since he had a frank talk with Su Xiaoxiao, he knew about Su Xiaoxiao's special ability. Sometimes she could see what was going to happen to other people. She would not ask to go with him without any reason, and the search was not a dangerous thing unless she saw something.
Su Xiaoxiao nodded. When she was looking at Qi Lei just now, her right eye twitched.
She saw that the villa had become a sea of fire, and Qi Lei and his team members had been blown to pieces, with no trace left of their bodies.
She had never seen such a tragic scene, so she had to go no matter what.
"Deputy Qi, we'd better find a bomb disposal expert to go with us." Su Xiaoxiao recalled what she saw.
"Bomb disposal expert?!"
Qi Lei narrowed his eyes. Is he that powerful? However, he was right to listen to Su Xiaoxiao. He did not hesitate to call for support.
They went to Taoyuan Villa first. Standing at the door of the villa, Su Xiaoxiao looked around. The people living in Taoyuan Villa area were either rich or noble. The villas were far apart. Even if there was a bomb in Villa No. 3, it would not affect other people and there was no need to evacuate the surrounding people.
Although the other team members didn't understand what was going on, they followed the command and did not move, but instead began to search carefully.
They searched the first to fourth floors and found no problems. It seemed that the problem was in the basement.
The entrance to the basement was locked with a chain, but this was not a difficult task for Su Xiaoxiao. She opened the lock in a few seconds and removed the chain from the door.
Team member Xiao Liu was about to reach out to open the basement door when Su Xiaoxiao suddenly saw a flash of silver light.
