Chapter 832 Midnight Theater

Duanmu Ai came to the apartment angrily, and then met Mr. Inoue who was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. Seeing Duanmu Ai's appearance, Mr. Inoue hurriedly rushed forward as if he had found a savior.

"Miss Duanmu, you are finally here..."

"Okay, now is not the time to talk about this."

Duanmu Ai was not in the mood to be polite to Inoue and waved her hand.

"What's the specific situation?"

"As I said before, I drove to pick her up this morning, but she didn't come down after the time. I thought she was still resting because she was tired, but I came up to look for someone and found that there was no one in the room. "

"You have the key?"

"Of course, I have a spare key just in case, don't you?"

"Why do I need the key? If I can't get in, I'll just kick the door down."

"Well……………"

That's true.

Duanmu Ai complained, and then glanced around.

"Did you call the police?"

"Of course not! If the police knew about this, it would be equivalent to being known by the media! At that time, we would be passive! The company's intention is not to be too public as much as possible."

"Fine………"

Duanmu Ai nodded, and then she carefully looked at the apartment in front of her.

As part of the commission, Duanmu Ai also lived here with Kujigawa Rise for a while, and was still very familiar with this apartment. Living room, dining room, barely used kitchen, and then a very large bathroom and bathroom, as well as the master bedroom and guest bedroom. Duanmu Ai walked around all the rooms and got some clues.

There was water in the bathtub, but it was already cold, and there were no signs of grooming on the washbasin outside. This meant that Rise was probably planning to put the water in for a bath at that time - this was normal. She was not like Duanmu Ai who only appeared for ten minutes. , but performed the whole show. After all, I am still young, so it is normal to feel tired and come back to relax. After all, it wasn't the first time Duanmu Ai had seen her do this.

The bed in the master bedroom showed no signs of being moved, and the small bag was still thrown on the sofa. Just these were enough for Duanmu Ai to piece together what happened last night.

Obviously, after Duanmu Ai left last night, Rishi planned to take a bath and rest alone, so she turned on the water and watched TV for a while. After all, the bathtub was really big, so she had to let it sit for a while.

Then, something seemed to have happened, and Rise turned off the faucet - this could be judged, after all, if the water in the pool was left unattended, the house would have been flooded overnight.

Although Duanmu Ai really doesn't like doing detective reasoning, she has been doing this for sixty years, so she has some experience.

It's just that most of the time, Duanmu Ai prefers to leave the mental things to others.

Now the question is, what happened to her that she needed to turn off the faucet because someone came and she couldn't take a shower? If this is the case, it is normal. If a guest comes, and you forget to turn off the faucet while talking, it will be troublesome. But the question is, who would have been here last night?

Thinking of this, Duanmu Ai looked at Mr. Inoue again.

"How many people know that Rise lives here?"

"Well... besides you and me, the boss knows, and then there are the bodyguards we hired, and maybe some tabloid reporters."

"Aren't you afraid that they will come to follow you?"

"The defenses here are perfect. It is impossible for reporters from third-rate tabloids to sneak in. Moreover, the people living nearby are all people in the circle. Everyone will help and take care of it."

Speaking of which, Duanmu Ai also heard Li Shi say that the reason why she lived in this apartment was because there were many people in the entertainment industry living here, including actors and singers. Everyone knew it tacitly, after all, they were all Everyone who works in this industry also knows the importance of personal privacy. From a stakes perspective, the people who live here are people like Rishi who are famous but not famous enough to own a single-family mansion, so they are very different from each other. There is some contact between them, and if we really encounter some trouble, we can still take care of it.

In other words, it is impossible for suspicious persons to enter this apartment.

This is another reason why Mr. Inoue is unwilling to call the police. After all, Rise is only missing now and has not yet been determined to be dead. Once the police are called in a big way, the police will definitely investigate other surrounding residents, which will cause trouble.

"I have adjusted Xiao Lishi's schedule and announced that Xiao Lishi has been exhausted from the performance in the past two days and needs to rest...Please, you must find her...!"

"I will do this without you having to ask."

Duanmu Ai frowned, his expression gloomy.

Now it seems that things over there have to be let go.

After entrusting the matter to Duanmu Ai, Inoue left in a hurry. He also wanted to apologize to others for the matter and notify others. Of course, we must also discuss with the company and unify our voices in front of the media. In other words, this matter can only be left to Duanmu Ai alone.

How strange.

Duanmu Ai has walked through the entire room, but did not find anything abnormal. He has also checked the surveillance cameras. Many people have entered, but no one left with Li Shi - such a big person, even if Even if he was knocked unconscious and carried away, there was no way he would not attract attention.

So, it was sent out of the window?

Probably not, this is not a movie, where could such a fantastic plot come from.

Um……………

Duanmu Ai stared at the TV in the living room - this TV was smaller than the one Duanmu Ai bought back to the office, but it was still big enough for most people.

Probably not?

There was no sign of Li Shi in the apartment, and Duanmu Ai finally chose to leave after looking around. But she was still a little confused. As for the suspect, there was no such thing—it wasn't that she simply couldn't find it, but that there were too many. After all, the more popular an idol like Kujigawa Rise is, the more people hate her. Her previous actions could also be seen as someone trying to harm her secretly.

perhaps.

But it wasn't the electronic demon's fault. At least Duanmu Ai didn't feel the electronic demon's presence nearby.

So who could it be? The security facilities of this apartment are complete, and Duanmu Ai has also confirmed that no idlers will be allowed to enter, and the people on duty here are all experienced security guards.

"Oh?"

Just when Duanmu Ai was thinking, a voice suddenly came from beside him. He looked up and saw a man with squinted eyes standing not far away with a smile, saying hello to Duanmu Ai.

"Hello, Miss Duanmu."

"wise."

Duanmu Ai raised his eyebrows and nodded slightly.

"Hello."

"I really didn't expect to meet you here. What's wrong?"

"I just have some things to do and am passing by. What about you?"

"I'm planning to go to a TV station to participate in a show."

"from here?"

"Of course, I live around here."

Akechi Goro was still carrying a box as always. He smiled at Duanmu Ai, then got in the car and left. Duanmu Ai half-closed his eyes, staring at Akechi Goro's disappearing back, and then withdrew his gaze. At the same time, raindrops fell from the gloomy sky and turned into a downpour.

Just continue your work.

What Duanmu Ai never expected was that clues would come to her door very quickly.

Just that night.

"Good evening everyone! I am Kujigawa Rise!"

On the TV screen, a popular idol wearing a swimsuit was smiling, standing on a purple-red stage filled with a certain temptation.

"After entering high school this spring, I finally became a high school girl's idol! It's so great! To commemorate this, I'm going to challenge an incredible project this time? That is - a strip show!"

As he spoke, Rishi twisted his body and winked at the screen proudly.

"Oh, it's so embarrassing. Speaking of which, does this society really allow female high school students to go into the sea? But, since I want to do it, I have to fight to the end. So I plan to take off all my clothes! Haha, stay tuned. Yo."

After saying this, Rise turned around and ran into the stage behind her. At the same time, the TV dimmed.

"Good guy...this is really a good guy..."

Duanmu Ai stretched out his hand to hold his forehead and sighed helplessly, while Lumière next to him also showed a surprised expression.

"Is this...the idol lady? She also became a victim of late-night television?"

"Yeah, luckily this thing can't be recorded, otherwise Rishi would be completely ruined just by doing this."

The inability to record the video was discovered before. When the last victim appeared, Lumière tried to record it, but the recorded screen was only blank and nothing else appeared. The same goes for Rise. Although it is indeed not a good thing for a popular idol to appear on a late-night show, there is no evidence for this thing itself, so no one should take it seriously.

The premise is that Rishi comes out in time. Otherwise, even if there is no way to record it, once the rumors spread, it will still have a huge impact on Rishi's current career. After all, she had just become famous with her performance. If something went wrong at this time, her efforts would be in vain.

"There's no other way, I have to take action."

Duanmu Ai moved his body and walked to the TV. Fortunately, this is just a "preview chapter", which means that although Rise has probably entered the subspace, she has not been harmed yet. Once the "main film" begins, her situation becomes much more dangerous.

………………

Well, it's dangerous in every sense, both for her as an idol and as a girl.

Fortunately, now that he knows where she is, solving this matter will be much easier for Duanmu Ai.

"Then, I'll come as soon as I go."

After saying this, she walked into the TV.
