"The deceased was a paparazzi. ”

Lin Hai's first sentence came out, and Daejeon's smile became thicker.

Daejeon didn't mean to interrupt Lin Hai and motioned for him to continue.

Lin Hai said: "Since I have invited me and Fukada-san, it means that this person must have something to do with us." I haven't dealt with strangers lately, so the problem must be with Fukada-san. ”

Rika couldn't help but ask, "You want to shirk responsibility?"

"Rest easy. ”

Lin Hai found that this cold-faced policewoman was not as calm as she showed, and said: "I'm just talking about the reasoning process, if you're not interested, then I'll skip it directly." ”

"Nope. Ota Masao said, "Just continue, I want to hear your analysis." ”

"Then I'll continue. ”

Lin Hai continued what he had just said: "I only met Fukada-san yesterday, and I don't know much about her interpersonal relationships, but when we had dinner together last night, I heard that she has been harassed by the paparazzi recently, which is the first point. ”

"Second, the police deliberately arranged ordinary vehicles to help us avoid the reporters squatting at the school gate, obviously knowing the 'scandal photos'. Can I understand that it is because you notice that picture that you are looking at us?"

Masao Ota looked surprised and couldn't help but nod.

Lin Hai asked, "Can you ask the specific reason?"

"Yes, yes......"

"Vigilant, this is not in accordance with the rules!"

I can see that Rika interrupted Ota Police, and there was some dissatisfaction in her tone.

"It doesn't matter. ”

Ota Masao waved his hand, and then said to Lin Hai: "Indeed, as you said, the deceased Ken Kajima was a reporter for "BUBKA" magazine. The police found some unused Polaroid photographic paper from his body, and judging by the model and number, it should be a set of photos published in the newspaper. ”

Lin Hai nodded, and then said, "So the police misunderstood me and Kyoko about his death. ”

Rika said, "Is it a misunderstanding, it's not up to you." ”

Lin Hai ignored her and asked Ota Masao again: "What about the time of death?"

"Vigilant!"

"It's okay, now you can basically rule out Lin Jun's suspicion of committing the crime. ”

Masao Ota had comforted Rika Nomi, and was about to continue, when a young policeman ran in with an excited face.

"Criminal ...... Report to the police!"

"What's the matter?"

"The Forensic Section has discovered new evidence and we are ......"

The young policeman whispered to Masao Ota, whose brow furrowed.

After listening to the report, Ota Masao turned to Lin Hai and asked, "Lin Jun, do you have a thermos cup?"

Lin Hai reacted quickly, and immediately guessed the reason for the young policeman's excitement, so he asked rhetorically: "You detected the luminol reaction from above?"

"You can ...... even this"

"I'm afraid you're going to have a void of joy. Lin Hai shrugged his shoulders and said: "In the morning, Kyoko cut his hand when he sharpened the pencil, and I accidentally touched the cup to the ground at that time. ”

The young policeman asked, "How do you prove what you say?"

"There's surveillance in Horikoshi's classroom, so you'll know if you turn on the surveillance footage. ”

"This ......"

The young policeman thought that he had found decisive evidence, but he didn't expect to make an oolong, and suddenly turned into a frosted eggplant.

No one doubted that Lin Hai would lie about this, after all, he mentioned "surveillance video".

The young policeman rushed over, but he didn't expect to be splashed with a chill, and he looked at Rika Nomi at a loss.

Rika said, "Go and tune in to the video." ”

After speaking, Rika turned to Lin Hai: "Even if there is a video as proof, it cannot be ruled out that this is something you did deliberately." ”

"You'd better listen to the police and finish talking. Lin Hai choked and asked Ota Masao: "You just said that my suspicion was ruled out, what happened?"

"We found the provider of the 'gossip photo' and according to his testimony, combined with the time of the deceased's death, you have a full alibi. ”

"Oh?" Lin Hai asked with interest, "Who is it?"

"For the sake of protecting the witness's privacy, I cannot tell you his name. ”

"Forget it. Lin Hai didn't get to the bottom of the question, and changed the question: "You are telling me this, do you want to?"

"You should be able to guess. Ota Masao smiled, "I hope you can participate in the investigation of the case." ”

"Why?"

Lin Hai felt that the Metropolitan Police Department should not be such a child's play, and reality was not an anime, how could it really involve a high school student in the murder investigation?

"You're still asking me why?" Ota Masao said angrily, "You also reasoned about the case last time, right?"

"It's my friend......"

"You're still playing stupid with me at this time? We've checked your friend, and he's just an ordinary college student. Without further ado, you may just be afraid of trouble, but I'm afraid you wouldn't have thought that 'Heisei's Kotilia' would have such a big impact, right?"

Of course Lin Hai knew, but when he heard the sound outside the strings, he could only pretend to be stupid at this time.

"In short, someone needs to suppress her limelight now, and since you made it up, then you have to be responsible to the end. ”

"What if I can't?"

"You are an artist, you should understand what the kindness from the Metropolitan Police Department represents. ”

Kindness, if you don't respond, it becomes hostility.

In front of the carrots and sticks that Daejeon police looked at, Lin Hai made a decisive choice.

"I know, I will cooperate with the police. ”

Daejeon smiled with satisfaction.

"You don't need to do anything, just stand up and cooperate at the critical moment. You're an artist, you don't need me to teach you how to perform, do you?"

……

I thought that I would be dragged to solve the case, but it turned out to be just a mascot booked by the police, Lin Hai was not satisfied with this result, and could only say that it was a false alarm, which was gratifying.

Although the Daejeon police determined that Lin Hai was innocent, Rika still detained him until the person who went to collect the surveillance returned, and Lin Hai, who had cleared the last trace of suspicion, was finally allowed to leave.

Lin Hai was invited to the reception room and met Akimi Oshima, who was anxiously waiting.

"It's okay, it's all a misunderstanding. ”

After Lin Hai finished explaining, he looked at Kyoko Fukada.

Kyoko Fukada's face was a little tangled.

Although Kyoko Fukada's agent was also there, Lin Hai still asked with concern: "What's wrong with you?"

Kyoko Fukada didn't say anything, and the agent next to her spoke.

"Hayashi-kun, I'm Fukada's agent, Yosuke Takano. ”

After the agent introduced himself, he got straight to the point: "I hope you and Fukada continue to maintain a romantic relationship." ”

"...... between us," Lin Hai reacted halfway through speaking: "You mean to hype up the scandal?"

"Yes. Yosuke Takano said, "If you can understand, it will be easy." ”

"Is that what you mean, or is that what HORIPRO (Kyoko's agency) means?"

"HORIPRO does not prohibit its artists from falling in love, but if this matter is not handled well, she is likely to be refrigerated, after all, this incident has destroyed the idol image that the company has created for her. ”

"So, that's what you mean?"

"Yes. I position Fukada as Haiyu, and in my opinion, it is not a good thing to use the scandal incident to get her rid of the burden of idols...... I will try my best to convince the company to change its attitude, but I need your cooperation...... If you are friends with Fukada, please think seriously about my advice, which may be more profitable for you, after all, the identities of the two of you are not equal. ”

Yosuke Takano's last words don't quite listen, but they can't be miscalculated.

Lin Hai's current popularity is hyped up by the media, and without the support of his works, this popularity will not last long, which is where he is inferior to Kyoko Fukada.

Lin Hai is not a novice in the entertainment industry, he knows the advantages of "bundled marketing", as long as he and Kyoko maintain their popularity, both of them will benefit, and even the effect of one plus one is greater than two. (For details, please refer to Mr. and Mrs. Huang.) ）

In addition, another point mentioned by Yosuke Takano - helping Kyoko take off the idol label as soon as possible - is also insightful.

Female artists, as idols or haiyu, have different development routes. The former is a fast-moving consumer product, while the latter is a long-selling product.

The longer this positioning drags on, the more difficult it is to change.

It can be seen that Takano is an experienced agent, and he may only treat Kyoko as a commodity, but he at least knows how to maximize the value of the commodity.

However......

Lin Hai looked at Kyoko Fukada and said, "The key is your attitude. If you don't like it, no one can force you. ”

"I ...... I listened to Mr. Takano. ”

Kyoko chose to run away, but her meaning was already clear.

Lin Hai asked Oshima Xiaomei again: "What do you think?"

"Yes. Although Akimi Oshima felt a little uncomfortable, reason told her that it was the right choice.

……

Yosuke Takano breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, letting Kyoko Fukada adjust his positioning was not his original wish, but a choice made as a last resort.

People who don't know about the idol industry may wonder how much impact can just a suspected kiss photo have?

To understand this, we must first understand one sentence: idols are a profession that sells dreams.

Or it would be more appropriate to change "dream" to "delusional".

Dreams can be attained, but delusions cannot be obtained, such as youth, beauty, talent, and so on.

What you need to do in the idol profession is to use these gorgeous clothes to package yourself into delicate dolls with different characteristics, and put them on the shelves for others to choose.

Who would want to buy a second-hand doll?

In other words, if you read "The Condor Heroes" and had the urge to send a blade to Jin Yong, you can understand the feelings of Japanese fans after learning that their idols are in love.

Of course, if you want to send a pennant to Jin Yong instead, then ......

A lightly armed female cavalry regiment may be more suitable for you.

……

"Next, please send Fukada home. Yosuke Takano said, "You just communicate, how to perform, you don't need me to teach you, right?"

Lin Hai looked at Akimi Oshima, who nodded.

"Well, let's go. Lin Hai said to Kyoko Fukada.

"Wait. ”

Rika walked in and said, "I'll send you away, I just have something to say to you." ”
