It was shocked and quickly informed Chi Qingzhou.

"Host, this Xue Jinshi was saved by Chi Qingning!"

"He debuted through a singing and dancing competition. Two years ago, he participated in a variety show, and someone put a substance in his water that could burn his throat. It was Chi Qingning who noticed the water looked off and quickly knocked over the bottle, saving him."

"At that time, he was already on the rise. The higher-ups at Dingsheng Entertainment were furious and put in a lot of effort to investigate the incident, but they couldn't find anything."

"Later, it was still Chi Qingning who worked with Xue Jinshi on a project, which eventually led them to catch the culprit."

Since then, Xue Jinshi had held Chi Qingning in high regard and often fought for him.

Chi Qingzhou was uninterested and asked, "Does anyone around him have a connection to my Brother Su?"

System: "Uh... well..."

Chi Qingzhou: "So there's no one."

He expressionlessly thought to himself, Xue Jinshi really isn't useful if he can't even provide any clues to help Xing Shuangzhan find the ghost energy.

Xing Shuangzhan couldn't help but laugh.

Ever since making the contract with Chi Qingzhou, he'd been this happy every day.

The feeling of being taken care of was just too good.

Chi Qingzhou, on the other hand, wasn't as pleased. He snorted, kicked his shadow, and grabbed his work phone.

Due to a sudden notice from the production team, the workgroup for Scenery Along the Way Season 2 quickly became noisy.

[Liang Daji with a baby at home: Can we start preparing to leave? Let me see the specifics first.]

[Liang Daji with a baby at home: ?? They only gave us two days to prepare this time? Lao Hu, something's off with you!]

[No more dancing: Is the destination Yuexi Ridge? Another mountain, does Director Hu have a special love for forests and mountains?]

[Zhong Lingshu: ... Lao Hu, come out. Why did you choose this place?]

[I'm the second hottest: What's going on? Sister Zhong, what's wrong with Shaoqiu City?]

[No more dancing: Is that Brother Tang above? Brother Tang, why did you suddenly change your name, and why the second hottest?]

[I'm the second hottest: Because the hottest is Xiao Chi, what else?]

[No more dancing: Makes sense.]

[Zhong Lingshu: Stop changing the subject. Lao Hu, come out. Didn't you say there were four backup locations? Why did you pick this one?]

[Zhong Lingshu: Don't play dead, come out and talk!]

The director looked at the messages in the group, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and sighed.

"What should I say?"

The assistant director and Lu Man patted his shoulders sympathetically, not sure how to respond.

The production team had originally prepared four backup locations, and in the director's mind, Shaoqiu City wasn't even the best option.

However, just like how Xue Jinshi suddenly appeared, a few days ago, he received a call from the Paranormal Bureau, who informed him that it would be best to choose Shaoqiu City.

The director didn't understand why this place was selected, and the Paranormal Bureau didn't give him a reason, only telling him that if he didn't want the variety show to be canceled for superstition, Shaoqiu City was the best choice.

The director was almost in tears, "This must be a warning! I'm not an idiot, I've worked hard for a program with good viewership. How could I let it die like this?"

But he couldn't tell the guests that!

Even though the Paranormal Bureau didn't require him to keep it a secret, would he dare say it?

No!

The director could only reply in the group, looking upset: [Well, I asked a master to take a look.]

Zhong Lingshu clearly didn't believe this explanation and continued to question him in the group, so the director had no choice but to take their conversation to private chat.

Before long, Zhong Lingshu returned to the group, nonchalantly brushing off the questions from the other guests, and then tagged Chi Qingzhou.

[Zhong Lingshu: Lao Hu is unreliable. If something really happens, we'll still need to rely on Actor Xiao Chi.]

This immediately received everyone's agreement.

Chi Qingzhou entered the group a bit later, read through the previous messages, and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

It seemed like Diva Zhong knew something.

He opened the chat with Zhong Lingshu and asked her about the situation in Shaoqiu City.

Zhong Lingshu replied quickly.

[I heard it from a friend. The authorities haven't made an official announcement yet, so I can't say much in the group. But since you asked, Xiao Chi, I'll give you a general idea.]

Shaoqiu City was a place with many different ethnic groups living together, but they got along very well, and there had hardly been any conflicts.

It was a place with beautiful scenery and a slow pace of life, always being a peaceful and livable place.

But recently, a tragic incident happened in Shaoqiu City.

[Zhong Lingshu: A family of three—parents and their daughter, who had just started high school—were killed in their home after someone broke in at midnight.]

[Zhong Lingshu: The scene was said to be very bloody. The person who reported it found the neighbor's door open in the morning and, out of curiosity, looked inside, only to find the whole room covered in blood.]

[Zhong Lingshu: All three of them had wounds, almost no flesh left, and the floor was stained red. They probably died from excessive blood loss.]

[Zhong Lingshu: My friend lives in Shaoqiu City. When this happened, the entire city was in panic.]

[Zhong Lingshu: The police have started an investigation, but since it's still recent, they haven't found anything yet.]

Chi Qingzhou pondered for a moment.

Zhong Lingshu had been through a lot, and she wouldn't be so concerned unless it was something more serious than a typical homicide case.

Sure enough, after sending this message, Zhong Lingshu paused briefly before sending a voice message.

Chi Qingzhou opened it, and Zhong Lingshu's slightly panicked voice came through.

"My friend's husband is a police officer, and he got involved with the case too." Her voice trembled. "They followed the instructions and sent the three bodies for autopsy to confirm some things. But that same night, the three bodies disappeared."

"My friend said they checked the surveillance footage and found that the bodies had actually gotten up on their own and walked out!"
