However, her smug smile quickly froze as she saw the shelf where she kept her paper bags burned down, but nothing else happened; everything around her seemed normal, and no accidents occurred.
"What's going on? Did that person lie to me? There was nothing in that paper package at all?"
Wu Fang was in a state of turmoil. She kept her eyes glued to the "fire scene," but nothing unexpected happened until the scene was finished filming, and everything seemed so calm.
Wu Fang was devastated. She couldn't believe that there was nothing in the paper package. In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through her mind. She immediately took out her phone and typed furiously, sending a message.
A short while later, someone replied to her message. Wu Fang glanced at it, then immediately turned and walked out.
" Fangfang?" Wu Jianrong saw her suddenly leave and wanted to stop her, but they were still filming, so he didn't dare to raise his voice. He could only watch her retreating quickly with resentment. "That brat!"
But soon, Wu Jianrong's expression froze, and without caring about anything else, he hurriedly followed Wu Fang.
After leaving the film set, Wu Fang deliberately walked in a certain direction until she arrived at a certain place.
Upon seeing the person already waiting there, she rushed over quickly and angrily demanded, "What exactly was in that paper package you gave me? Why didn't anything happen when I put it in the fire as you instructed?"
She questioned him, "Do you think it's funny to tease me?"
Upon hearing her words, the other person's expression turned serious, and she retorted to Wu Fang, "What you're saying didn't happen? Explain yourself to me clearly!"
Wu Fang was furious. "You gave me that thing, and you're asking me?"
She took a deep breath and said, "I did as you said, putting that thing in a place where it was bound to burn. I even watched it burn to ashes with my own eyes, but nothing happened! You didn't have anything in there at all, did you?"
The visitor frowned deeply. "Are you sure you saw it burned with your own eyes?"
Wu Fang nodded firmly. "Of course I'm sure. I put it there myself, how could I not know?"
Upon hearing this, the expression on the person speaking to her changed rapidly. Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, his pupils contracted, and he turned to leave.
Wu Fang's eyes widened, and she reached out to grab him. "Hey, I haven't finished speaking yet, you go..."
Before she could finish uttering "where," two people suddenly rushed out from the side, grabbed the man, and one of them shouted, "Police, don't move!"
Upon hearing the word "police," Wu Fang felt a wave of dizziness. Without thinking, she turned to run, only to find a young man in plain clothes standing behind her.
"Hello, Ms. Wu." The man greeted Wu Fang politely, then said, "I am a police officer from the XX District Police Station. Ms. Wu, you are suspected of attempted murder. Please come with us."
Upon hearing this, Wu Jianrong, who had followed the police closely, nearly fainted.
"Officer!" he rushed over, anxiously asking, "Isn't there some misunderstanding?"
"Third Uncle!" Wu Fang saw him and immediately felt reassured. She grabbed his arm, hid behind him, and cried out, "Third Uncle, I'm scared!"
Wu Jianrong couldn't care less about her emotions right now. He looked nervously at the policeman in front of him and said, "My niece seems brave, but she's actually very timid. She definitely wouldn't dare to harm anyone, so there must be some misunderstanding."
The police, however, said, "There's no misunderstanding. We personally witnessed Ms. Wu placing the bomb on the prop rack in the film crew's room, and we've confirmed that it was indeed a bomb."
bomb?!
Wu Jianrong could hardly believe what he had just heard; he looked at Wu Fang in disbelief.
"I didn't!" Wu Fang instinctively protested, her eyes darting around. "What bomb? I have no idea!"
Seeing her expression, Wu Jianrong's heart sank. Just like before, how could he not understand his own niece? He had watched her grow up since she was little; how could he not tell if she felt guilty or not?
"You really did such a thing?" He looked at Wu Fang with disappointment and anger.
Wu Fang bit her lip, and realizing she couldn't fool him anymore, she cried and said, "I didn't know it was a bomb! That person said it was just something that could make the fire bigger. I just wanted to scare Ye Mo. I really didn't know there was a bomb inside."
Upon hearing this, Wu Jianrong felt like he was about to have a stroke. He angrily asked, "Why did you scare Miss Ye? What did Miss Ye do to offend you?"
Wu Fang pursed her lips and said, "She didn't offend me, but her fans did. Isn't there a saying that goes, 'The idol pays the price for the fans' actions'? Who told her fans to insult me?"
Seeing her self-righteous expression, Wu Jianrong, furious and spitting blood, muttered, "Just for this reason, you dare to do this? You're insane..."
On their side, Wu Fang was a girl, and Wu Jianrong wasn't a lawless thug, so they didn't violently resist the police. But the situation was different on the other side.
Two policemen rushed out and pinned the young man who had met with Wu Fang to the ground. The young man struggled and eventually pulled out a knife from his pocket and swung it at the two policemen.
"Get out of my way!" the young man shouted.
During the struggle, his mask was ripped off, revealing a face that looked remarkably sunny. However, as the saying goes, one's appearance reflects one's heart, and the ruthlessness in his eyes now marred his sunny disposition, making him appear more menacing.
The police officers were caught off guard and nearly got slashed. They could only retreat hastily. After the young man with the knife slashed away two police officers, he did nothing more but turned and ran away.
Seeing this, the two policemen's expressions hardened, and they hurriedly gave chase.
"... Ms. Wu, please come with us." The police officer standing in front of Wu Jianrong and Wu Fang spoke again, taking out handcuffs.
Upon seeing the gleaming handcuffs, Wu Fang probably realized she had really gotten herself into serious trouble, and her face turned deathly pale.
***
The film studio is packed with film crews, plus some curious passersby, making it quite lively during the day. However, it's the middle of the night now, and apart from some film crews shooting night scenes, there aren't many people to be seen on the streets.
Fortunately, there was hardly anyone around, otherwise this incident would have caused a commotion. However, because there was no one around, the young man ran so fast that no one could stop him, and the police couldn't catch up with him for a while.
Upon seeing the direction the young man was rushing towards, one of the policemen suddenly realized something, and his expression immediately changed.
"Oh no, he's after Miss Ye!"
The direction the young man ran in was none other than the direction of the filming location for " The Tale of Intrigue ".
Meanwhile, on the set of " The Tale of Intrigue "...
The atmosphere on set was harmonious, largely because the most difficult night scene to film that evening had been successfully completed. Ye Mo was the lead actress in this scene, and the fact that the film was finished so quickly was naturally thanks to her.
Finishing filming early meant everyone in the crew could rest early, so everyone showered Ye Mo with compliments, making Zhou Xiaoyu very happy.
In contrast, the person being praised didn't seem so happy; instead, they appeared somewhat distracted.
" Sister Momo, aren't you happy that everyone is praising you so much?" Zhou Xiaoyu couldn't help but ask her.
