Chapter 13: The Wife Who Blames Himself
"Quite simply, because I suffer from face blindness, I like to observe people's features other than facial features, including physical and behavioral characteristics, as well as body odor. These factors, together with the voices of men, are the basis on which I distinguish you. As soon as you came in, I could smell the smell of tobacco on you, and although it was very faint, I could tell right away that it was the smell of tobacco. Next, I noticed that your fingers, typical smoker features, were smoked to a yellowish color. And the outline of your jacket pocket, look at the size and shape, there is definitely a pack of cigarettes inside, and your behavior is characterized by you subconsciously touching your pocket, from you came in until now, you have unconsciously touched your pocket four times, I think, this is your subconscious want to constantly confirm whether you have a cigarette on your body, in other words, you are now addicted to smoking again, but because you are now in Changqing's house, facing us people, there is a hostess who hates the smell of smoke, so you can't smoke yet. So every time you touch the cigarette in your pocket, you will subconsciously take a look at Aiqin. Ran Sinian said, and looked at Ai Qin again, as if asking with his eyes, do you hate the smell of smoke?
Bai Yifeng was dumbfounded, his mouth open and he didn't know what to say, but Ai Qin asked curiously: "How do you know that I hate the smell of smoke?" ”
Ai Qin's question aroused everyone's curiosity, it seems that the maid, Tan Jiansheng, Rao Peier, and of course Bai Yifeng, everyone knows that Ai Qin hates the smell of smoke, and she hates it very much.
"Yesterday when I checked your home, I noticed that the air conditioning system in the study on the second floor was erected separately, it was a vertical air conditioner, and the air supply outlet of the central air conditioning of the whole villa in the study was artificially sealed and transformed. As we all know, the reason why smoking rooms are canceled in many public places abroad is because smoking rooms, like other rooms, share a central air-conditioning system, and the harmful substances in cigarettes will still be dispersed to other rooms through air-conditioning pipes. The study on the second floor is full of evergreen things, which means that this is his separate study and his smoking room. The reason why the study does not use central air conditioning but uses a separate vertical air conditioner is because your wife is a person who hates the smell of smoke and does not want any harmful substances in cigarettes to spread to other areas of the villa. I guess that's right, right? Although Ran Sinian was a question at the end, he was full of confidence, as if he was saying an affirmative sentence.
"So, so Ai Qian dreamed of the smoke she hated, which symbolized me? However, Evergreen also smokes, why not symbolize Evergreen? Bai Yifeng still asked unconvinced.
"First, Changqing is dead in his dream, and second, the smell of smoke that disgusts Ai Qin in life does not come from Changqing, because Changqing has his own smoking room, which is the study. I think you must have smoked in front of Ai Qin when you were a guest here before. At that time, it must have left a very bad impression on Ai Qin, of course you know this, so after sitting on the sofa, every time you subconsciously touch the cigarette in your pocket, you will unconsciously look at Ai Qin, which is your subconscious reminding you, because the hostess here hates the smell of smoke, so you must restrain your addiction to smoking. So in Ai Qin's dream, I turned your image into smoke," Ran Sinian shook his head helplessly, changed his tone, and said earnestly, "I think, you have been smoking since you were a teenager, you are still so young, if you continue to smoke, the consequences are really unimaginable, I advise you, it is better to quit." ”
Bai Yifeng shook his head helplessly, sighed and said, "That's right, I learned to smoke at the age of 15, and since then I have been out of control. Now ten years have passed and my craving for smoking is growing, quit smoking? Easier said than done. ”
"Of course it's easy, as long as you want, I can introduce you to a doctor I know, her hypnotherapy can not only quit smoking and alcohol, but also help lose weight, she has many successful cases." Ran Sinian didn't feel that he was going off topic at all, and when he talked about the doctor he knew, his face was much more relaxed, and he had a faint smile.
Bai Yifeng was just about to politely decline Ran Sinian's kindness, but Qu Zichong interjected: "Si Nian, let's go back to the topic and explain Ai Qin's dream first." ”
Only then did Ran Sinian realize that he had deviated from the topic, and immediately put on a serious expression again, and continued: "In Ai Qin's dream, the smoking cremation furnace represents Bai Yifeng, Ai Qin wanted to push Chang Qing's body to cremation, but Chang Qing was extremely resistant to this, although it was already a corpse, he still supported the edge of the cremation oven with his hand, and did not want to go in. But in the end, he died again in the furnace. In other words, Ai Qin's subconscious determined that the murderer who killed Changqing was Bai Yifeng, although Changqing resisted, but he still couldn't escape death. And Ai Qin herself was among them, and without knowing it, she helped Bai Yifeng and indirectly killed her husband. ”
Bai Yifeng stood up suddenly, pointed at Ran Sinian and shouted: "Nonsense! I'm not a murderer! ”
Ran Sinian made a gesture of calmness and motioned for Bai Yifeng to sit down first, "Mr. Bai, calm down." I didn't conclude that you were a murderer, I just said that Ai Qian's subconscious was suspecting that you were a murderer. ”
Qu Zichong smiled and said to Bai Yifeng: "Mr. Bai, if Si Nian thinks that you are a murderer, he will not have the heart to persuade you to quit smoking, and introduce you to a doctor." You calm down first and listen to Si Nian continue. ”
Ran Sinian didn't pay attention to Bai Yifeng anymore, but turned to Ai Qin, "Now please explain how you played an indirect role in killing Changqing without knowing it, what kind of role you are between Bai Yifeng and Changqing, and what did you do." Don't say you don't know, your dreams have betrayed you. ”
Ai Qin bit her lip, tears quickly accumulated in her eyes, she glanced at Bai Yifeng, struggled for a moment, and still said: "In the casting stage of the movie, I suggested that Chang Qing find Bai Yifeng to be the leading actor. Originally, Chang Qing had already selected other male stars at the beginning, but in the end, he listened to my opinion and asked Bai Yifeng to act. It's all because of me, if he hadn't made me happy, he wouldn't, wouldn't have ......"
"Please, what does it have to do with Chang Qing's death whether I play the leading actor or not? I repeat, I'm not a murderer! Bai Yifeng slapped the table angrily.
Ran Sinian squinted at Bai Yifeng, Bai Yifeng's performance just now made a word come to his mind, his heart was empty. That's right, Bai Yifeng showed an extremely hidden heart in the face of Ai Qin and his own accusations. Could it be, is he really the murderer?
"Don't worry, let's explain the second dream, that is, Ai Qin's dream of returning to the exam when she was a student," Ran Sinian decided to put this Bai Yifeng aside first and enter the next stage, "In the second dream, there was a tablemate wearing glasses, and the exam papers on the same table were densely packed with words, I don't think I need to say anything about this person, everyone knows who the corresponding person is, right?" ”
Several people invariably set their sights on the playwright Tan Jiansheng.
Tan Jiansheng's face did not change, and he was still calm and calm. This elegant man in his early thirties has not been surprised since he came in, no matter how Ran Sinian's words surprised several people, he always wears a cold mask that does not care about himself.
Ran Sinian looked directly at Tan Jiansheng's face, although he couldn't recognize or remember this face at all, "Mr. Tan, I think, the script of this movie is actually not from you, right?" ”
Tan Jiansheng still didn't speak, and looked directly at Ran Sinian with extremely calm and indifferent eyes, waiting for his next step.
Rao Peier, who had been silent on the side, said jokingly: "It seems that the rumors are true, it has long been spread in the crew, this movie script was not written by Tan Jiansheng at all, it was just borrowed from Tan Jiansheng's name, this crappy third-rate script was written by Chang Qing himself!" ”
Ran Sinian glanced at Rao Pei'er, and continued to talk through the words: "If the glasses in Ai Qin's dream are written at the same table with divine help, of course, the hint is you, a well-known screenwriter, who wrote that the pen ran out of water, and asked Changqing for help under Ai Qin's signal, and continued to answer the questionnaire with Evergreen's blood, which is to imply that in fact, your script is not from you, but from Evergreen." In the end, in the dream, you simply used the pen as a weapon and stabbed directly into Changqing's throat. In other words, Ai Qin's subconscious is also extremely suspicious that you are the murderer who killed Changqing. And among them, Ai Qin herself also played an indirect role, because it was Ai Qin who signaled Tan Jiansheng to borrow a pen from Chang Qing. ”
Ai Qin sobbed, Chu Chu wiped her tears pitifully, and muttered in a low voice: "It's me, it's me who hurt Evergreen, it's all my fault." ”
Qu Zichong comforted at the right time: "Your subconscious has actually been blaming itself, that's why you have such a dream. I advise you to adjust your mentality, and the most important thing at the moment is to provide as many clues as possible to find the real culprit. Self-blame doesn't solve anything, it's just self-torture. ”
Ai Qin's scattered eyes gathered a sharp light again, and she nodded firmly.
"So, please tell me, what role did you play between Chang Qing and Tan Jiansheng? What did you do? Ran Sinian asked Ai Qin.
"When Chang Qing first showed me the story prototype of the script, I saw that there was nothing outstanding about this story, and it was almost impossible for Chang Qing to make a movie with this story to turn over. I persuaded him to give up the story and find a professional screenwriter to write the script, but he just refused, and he was sure that this movie would definitely be a hit. I couldn't resist him at all, so I came up with an idea and proposed to find a well-known screenwriter to put on a name. Isn't that all the way around now? Although the work is mediocre, it can attract a lot of attention because it has everyone's name on it. I'm also doing this for the good of Changqing," Ai Qin said, her eyes drifting to Tan Jiansheng, "Later, Changqing found Tan Jiansheng, and I don't know how they agreed and what the price was, anyway, in the end, Tan Jiansheng wrote the script of the movie with the story provided by Changqing." ”
