Lin Wenzhou watched the video carefully, the position of the probe was located at the entrance of the performance venue, Chen Jiayu's slightly obscene figure soon appeared in the picture, he was wearing a peaked cap, and the brim of the hat was pressed very low, as if he didn't want people to see him.

Thomas explained: "Our show is the end of the show until 12 p.m., so Mr. Chen is a little late, and he is in the final ......."

Everyone nodded in understanding and continued to watch the surveillance video.

What caught everyone's attention in the picture was that he chatted with a uniformed receptionist at the door, as if he asked a question, and the receptionist answered him.

Without waiting for them to ask, Thomas took the initiative to say, "We asked the receptionist, and Mr. Chen did ask a question at that time......

Lin Wenzhou and Ouyang Jincheng all looked at him a little anxiously, and Thomas said clearly: "He asked the female receptionist, is there a circus performance here?" In particular, he asked if there was a clown show......"

Ouyang Jincheng's eyes widened and said, "He wants to watch a clown show in the middle of the night?" ”

Lin Wenzhou said anxiously: "How does the female receptionist answer?" ”

Thomas shrugged and said, "Naturally, she answered truthfully...... No, although there were various performances on our boat, and there were some acrobatic ones, there was never a clown show. ”

Shao Yudie, who had been following Ouyang Jincheng very carefully, suddenly asked in fluent English, "I heard Jincheng say that you mentioned a very strange place?" Over there? ”

As a lawyer of the future, he still looks at the problem very carefully and sharply.

Thomas nodded and said, "The strange thing is that according to the surveillance video, Mr. Chen seemed to be a little disappointed and wanted to leave the theater at first, but then he found something, and finally decided to enter the theater despite the persuasion of the receptionist......"

Shao Yudie's crisp voice said: "It's not surprising, maybe the performances inside have attracted him, anyway, our joint ticket to the theater is free......"

Ling Shuanghua couldn't help but remind: "Didn't I say it just now, the performance was over at that time, and the last group of audiences was ...... the end."

Shao Yudie was stunned for a moment, with a strange expression, obviously unable to figure out what attracted Chen Jiayu, Thomas coughed and said: "The strange thing is not that Mr. Chen entered the theater in reverse, but that after Mr. Chen entered the theater, he never came out again...... I mean there's only one entrance to the theater, and it's all in the camera's range, and in fact, half an hour ago, the theater was closed, and the staff had left, so all the audience should have left before that, and my colleague had planned to check when Mr. Chan left and keep tracking, but he couldn't find the footage of him leaving anyway......"

Lin Wenzhou took a deep breath and said, "There is only one explanation, he is still in that praise at the moment!" ”

Thomas spread his hands and nagged to explain, he contacted the person in charge of the performance, who said that the clearance was very thorough, and it was impossible for anyone to stay inside......

Although Thomas kept saying that the "Future Star" cruise ship is very large, and there are often reports of lost tourists, but the real disappearance has almost never happened, the reason is very simple, this ship sails on the sea, itself is a confined space, unless you jump into the sea, otherwise people will not disappear out of thin air, you can always find it, he also gave many examples, such as the wife called the police to say that her husband was missing, and the result was often either drunk and fell in a bar or in another girl's **......

And Thomas also patted ** and said that he would be responsible to the end and help you find Chen Jiayu, but obviously these words could not convince Lin Wenzhou.

When Lin Wenzhou left the monitoring room, his expression was quite dark, he didn't tell Thomas all the background in the monitoring room just now, but he, Ouyang Jincheng and Ling Shuanghua knew very well what Chen Jiayu was doing.

Ouyang Jincheng's face was also ugly, the event was organized by him, if Chen Jiayu had an accident, he would have to bear some responsibility, he couldn't help but scold: "That Chen Jian doesn't know what to do all day long...... Jiayu is really, he is still a detective with his dead surname, and if you don't have a diamond, don't do porcelain work! ”

Instead, Shao Yudie gently persuaded: "Jin Cheng, it's useless to complain about these now, what should we do next?" ”

The first to answer that she was indeed a frosty eldest lady, she said coldly: "Of course, I went to the performance venue where Jiayu disappeared!" I can't believe the words of the person in charge of the performance hall! ”

Ouyang Jincheng nodded, and then glanced at Shao Yudie with questions, who smiled bitterly: "It's naturally safer for me to go with the three of you, you want me to go back to the room alone now to scare me to death......

Ouyang Jincheng hesitated, and simply called Thomas and asked him to arrange a person to deal with them, and then the four of them went to the theater at the same time, and let the staff member also watch in the monitoring room, the latter did not object after hearing that they were going to find someone in person, and agreed to come down, it is estimated that he was indeed stumped by the murder case Most of his energy, and he really didn't have much energy to find Chen Jiayu......

After everything was arranged, the four of them took the elevator and went down from the monitoring room on the eighth floor to the second floor where the entrance to the performance was located.

At this moment, the time is close to 1:30 in the morning, and the second floor is not a bar or dance hall or the like, basically a more popular entertainment facility, at this moment it has already closed down, only some emergency lights are left on the corridor, the light is particularly dim, and there is no person, it seems quiet and abnormal.

Shao Yudie was obviously a little timid, she carefully grabbed the corner of Ouyang Jincheng's clothes and followed him step by step.

Ling Shuanghua looked at her virtue and said coldly: "Yudie, you are pulling Ouyang like this, getting in the way, he can't show it when he really encounters bad guys, and he can't protect you, so let's let 'Snowball' protect you!" ”

Shao Yudie sighed, first of all, she approved of the eldest lady's remarks, and really didn't help Ouyang, but secondly, she looked at the 'snowball' with a cute face on her back with the sword on her back, she was small, and her height was only as high as her calf, so she really couldn't count on its protection.

Lin Wenzhou added with a smile: "Senior Sister Shao, don't underestimate the 'snowball', this dog is not very ordinary...... "He now knows the origin of the three strings of dogs, and he is very speechless about Qin Mengyao's naughty behavior.

The 'snowball' was really obedient, the eldest lady gave a few simple instructions, and after pointing at Shao Yudie, it immediately understood the master's intentions, spread its feet and ran to the latter's feet, looking loyal and guarding.

Although he is very skeptical about his ability, Shao Yudie's good impression of this dog is indeed self-evident!

The corridors on the second floor are covered with a thick red carpet, people step on it softly, no footsteps can be heard at all, the entrance of the performance hall is a very spacious hall, but it is crowded during the day, and the lively ticket office and popcorn drink sales office are empty at the moment, and there is an indescribable Xiao Suo smell.

Ouyang Jincheng came to the entrance of the main entrance, pushed down the huge door, did not push it open, it should be locked, he took out the phone and communicated with Thomas, who promised to arrange a security guard to open the door for them with a spare key, by the way, the security department has spare keys for all rooms of the entire cruise ship.

So the four of them and a dog stood at the door for a while, and by the way, a few people discussed a few words.

First of all, Ouyang Jincheng looked puzzled and said: "What is Chen Jiayu doing with this guy, what kind of clown is he looking for for some reason......"

Ling Shuanghua said coldly on the side: "Although Chen Jiayu has serious flaws in his surname and his IQ is not very high, it is also considered normal, so he must have his reasons for looking for a clown, and according to his phone call with Wenzhou, this clown may be related to the murder incident a few hours ago......"

Lin Wenzhou squinted his eyes and said, "I suddenly had a strange idea, could it be that Jiayu met some clown at the murder scene?" ”

Shao Yudie hid behind Ouyang Jincheng and couldn't help but say, "But the problem is that Thomas said just now, there are no clowns on the ship......."

The four of them were silent, and suddenly the puppy 'Snowball' barked violently, and the four of them followed the sound and saw the figure of a uniformed security guard gradually appear from a distance, as if he was supposed to be here to deliver a spare key.

'Snowball' found this guy earlier than the four of them, and quickly called the police, acting quite alert, the eldest lady immediately squatted down ** its long hair while telling it that it was her own person, while also expressing praise, sure enough, this thing especially likes the owner's praise, the front leg pulled the eldest lady's calf, a very happy look.

At this time, the young security guard had already come to him, it was a Chinese man, he handed the key to Ouyang Jincheng and said, "For safety, Thomas asked me to accompany you to go in......"

Ouyang Jincheng shrugged noncommittally, quickly opened the spare key and walked in.

The entire theater occupies a large area, running from the first floor to the third floor, and the entrance is located on the second floor, so when you enter, you realize that you are standing in the center of a huge ramped stand, and directly opposite the ramped stand is a large fan-shaped stage, and there is a semi-circular river between the stand and the fan-shaped stage, and the stage feels as if it is floating on water.

The empty stands didn't have much to study, although they were large and could accommodate thousands of people, but the rows of neat seats obviously couldn't hide people, so everyone gave up after a simple inspection.

The five people and one dog reunited, and finally they all focused their eyes on the fan-shaped stage across the water, in fact, the empty stage is also unlikely to hide people, in fact, everyone understands in their hearts that the most critical thing in the whole place should be the backstage position behind the fan-shaped stage, which is covered by a thick curtain......
