After Breaking the Persona, I Reach the Peak of My Life

Chapter 609 - 599: Poisoned?

Listening to Bi Xia’s words, Xu Renfei’s heart paused for a moment. He saw Bi Xia frowning and calmly inspecting the ’Mr. Li’ lying there with a knife wound on his bare abdomen.Xu Renfei couldn’t help but complain, "This is way too fake! Director Li, if you want to use a real person, just stick with the real person! Removing the real person halfway and replacing them with a dummy is just so careless!"

Director Li:... Ahem, what did you say? I didn’t hear anything.

Inspecting the wound, Bi Xia nodded in agreement, "I agree, this is too unrealistic. And you’re tampering with the crime scene like this! You could get caught! Director Wu, couldn’t you have stopped him a bit?"

Director Wu helplessly shrugged, He’s the boss, what I say doesn’t matter!

Bi Xia looked at the knife vertically inserted into Mr. Li’s abdomen, then at the dried blood on the wound, and frowned slightly, "If it’s inserted vertically, it means someone stabbed it in vertically, and then..."

"And then?" Xu Renfei looked at Bi Xia curiously.

Bi Xia shrugged, "I don’t know. I’m not a professional forensic expert, how should I know what clues to look for from the wound."

Xu Renfei: ...

"But..." Bi Xia dragged on, turning his gaze to Mr. Li’s lips, "Look, they’re purple."

Xu Renfei nodded, "I know, I’ve already noticed that."

Glancing at Xu Renfei, "Purple lips, haven’t you seen enough mystery shows to know that means poisoning?"

Xu Renfei suddenly realized, "Oh, right!"

Bi Xia: ...

"Xu Renfei."

"Hmm, hmm."

"Tell me, how did you use to play on this show?" Bi Xia looked at Xu Renfei expressionlessly.

Xu Renfei chuckled, "I played seriously, and weren’t the games less brainy before? Now that I’m with you, I’m even more lazy to think."

Bi Xia sighed lightly and flicked Xu Renfei’s forehead, "Start using your brain. You don’t need to focus on getting me screen time; I don’t need it. This is your show. If you do well, it’s truly good. Understand?"

Xu Renfei was stunned for a moment, his peach blossom eyes staring blankly at Bi Xia who had already stood up and walked to the side. After a while, he smiled faintly. He actually figured it out... Tsk, no wonder he’s our Little Jiu’er...

Since it’s not needed, let’s form the strongest Seven & Nine duo!

Thinking this, Xu Renfei slowly stood up, came to Bi Xia’s side, and saw Bi Xia staring at a black box.

Xu Renfei looked over, raised his hand to take the black box, and gently opened the lid. Inside were various wires, and the other end was connected to the light switch.

Xu Renfei smiled, "This is really careless. How could they have such things in ancient times? It totally breaks the immersion!"

Bi Xia also laughed, "Yeah, it’s truly speechless."

The two shared a light laugh. Xu Renfei placed the box far off and started fiddling with it. After a while, he exclaimed, "This is physics."

Saying that, Xu Renfei quickly sorted out the wires, reconnected the broken ones, and pressed the switch. The lights in the hall instantly went out, and after a minute, all the lights came back on.

Xu Renfei’s peach blossom eyes sparkled as he looked at Bi Xia, "Little Jiu’er, am I smart?"

Bi Xia patted Xu Renfei’s head, smiling, "Little Seven is really smart."

"Come on, I’m Brother Qi!" Xu Renfei retorted although he smiled happily, "This should be the device that controls the lights to turn off and on automatically."

Bi Xia contemplated for a moment, then looked at Xu Renfei. They shared a knowing smile, and Bi Xia said, "It seems we should check out Landlord Wang’s house."

"Yeah, I think so too." Xu Renfei tilted his head, smiling wickedly.
