Stop pretending, the fake heiress is actually a master of metaphysics.

Shen Nian and Mu Sinian walked into the first makeup artist's room.

The chairs, dressing table, and mirror were all covered in a layer of dust. Several costumes hung on a clothes rack in the corner. They were old and worn. It was unclear whether they were props from the production team or had been there originally.

In another corner, there was a mannequin wearing a wig and full makeup, so lifelike that it could easily startle someone at first glance.

Shen Nian found an envelope in the drawer of her dressing table, opened it, and found a bunch of photos of the theater inside.

It seems to be the "clue" the production team was referring to.

Shen Nian read them all.

One of the group photos has a corner torn off; it should be the main actors from the original production.

Shen Nian handed the envelope to Mu Sinian and told him to keep it safe before searching other corners of the dressing room.

But suddenly she heard Mu Sinian call her: "Master Shen".

Shen Nian paused, turned around and glanced at him.

"What's up?"

"Is there... really something behind me?"

Shen Nian: "...You really want to know?"

"Um."

Mu Sinian met Shen Nian's gaze, his expression quite frank and open.

He doesn't seem like he's done anything wrong.

"The divination fee is 500, and credit is not available."

Mu Sinian took out his phone and said naturally, "Then let's add each other on WeChat, I'll transfer the money to you."

Shen Nian took out her phone from her pocket and had him scan her QR code.

Mu Sinian transferred five hundred yuan to her.

"There is a woman's spirit behind you."

Shen Nian accepted the divination fee and said calmly.

"...Did I kill him?"

He seemed to pause for a moment, then asked softly.

The live chat exploded with comments.

The director was also stunned.

Mu Sinian took the initiative to approach the production team to participate in the show, and after the director checked his birth chart and found no problems, he agreed.

After all, with such a popular celebrity, the director wouldn't hesitate to take advantage of him.

Will Mu Sinian's illustrious reputation be ruined by their production team...?

However, judging from Mu Sinian's expression, he seems unaware of the situation...?

[Wow, there really is something following Mu Sinian!]

Don't scare me, I can't stand seeing this kind of thing.

[Aaaaaaah, brother, step back behind me!!!]

[What a pervert! He's actually hooking up with my brother!]

[Hiss, that doesn't seem to be the point. Shouldn't the point be why it's clinging to Mu Sinian?]

[Mu Sinian must have done something...]

Get out of here! Our brother is upright and honest; he would never do anything illegal or disorderly.

That's not necessarily true.

Let's see what Master Shen has to say, instead of guessing.

I believe in Master Shen.

Shen Nian glanced at him: "That doesn't count."

It means "doesn't count," not "isn't."

In other words, he may not be the person in question, but this matter is related to him.

Shen Nian said, "Do you remember the hotel you stayed at last week, where someone fell from the building?"

Mu Sinian nodded: "Yes."

"However, I was filming on set when the fall happened, not at the hotel, so I didn't see the scene."

Shen Nian said, "The girl who fell from the building was an extreme fan of yours. She bought your hotel information and was planning to climb down the facade into your room."

"However, due to his poor skills, he slipped and fell, and died as a result."

"The thing following you now is her ghost."

[Holy crap, she's a stalker!]

[666 Sasaeng fans are really capable of anything.]

[Oh my god, they're actually planning to climb into the hotel room! That's terrifying!]

So don't become a sasaeng fan, look at the consequences.

[There was a previous incident where a car chased by obsessive fans caused an accident.]

Harming others will ultimately harm yourself...

Ordering it will ultimately harm yourself and others...

Is this what they mean by "even as a ghost, I won't let you go"?

[How terrifying... They were stalkers while alive, and now they're still haunting us even after they're dead.]

Mu Sinian frowned: "Then could you... tell her not to follow me?"

Shen Nian said, "Exorcism is charged separately."

"However, after a mortal dies, the ghost can usually only stay in the mortal world for seven days. After seven days, she will naturally leave."

Judging by the timeline, the female ghost's spirit should leave naturally after they finish filming this episode.

This is why Shen Nian didn't tell him immediately.

Because the female ghost had no intention of harming him, and would naturally dissipate over time.

"...I see."

Mu Sinian nodded as if he understood.

Wait a minute, I have a question.

Does this thing follow my brother when he takes a shower?

[…Watson, you've spotted the blind spot.]

[Holy crap!!! I won't allow it!!! I won't allow it!!!]

【Oh my god!!! How could this happen!!!】

[My brother's chastity!!!]

Mu Sinian asked, "Is she with me all the time?"

"Yes. Of course, that includes taking a shower and going to bed."

Shen Nian said calmly.

However, one could still faintly detect a hint of laughter in the air.

Mu Sinian's face stiffened.

[Hahahahahahaha!! Could this be the reason Master Shen hasn't said anything yet?!]

[Hahahaha, Shen Nian is definitely laughing!]

[Hahahaha, to be fair, Mu Sinian seems to have a pretty strong sense of image.]

"Alright, let's continue looking for clues."

Shen Nian said.

The two searched other places one after another, and when the six of them finally met up, they had found a total of ten clues.

These ten clues include photographs, fragments of diaries, newspaper scraps, and more...

The ten clues, pieced together, formed their second task:

To uncover the truth.

They had to piece together the real reason for the theater fire.

The production team brought in a round table in advance, and the six guests sat around it to begin their brainstorming session.

Although the production team provided many seemingly plausible clues, the people present were quite clever. They first figured out each person's role and name based on the clues, and then investigated the location of the fire and the position of each person at the time.

If we use abcd to refer to people.

A was originally cast as the male lead in the script, but due to an accident that damaged his vocal cords, B took over the role, and A switched to behind-the-scenes work.

The female lead, C, and A were originally lovers, but A took the initiative to break up with C after the accident.

As expected, C later fell in love with B and became lovers.

Rehearsals for their last performance before they left.

Perhaps it was out of jealousy, or perhaps it was out of hatred.

Ultimately, the arson destroyed the entire stage and the cast and crew.

The case itself is not complicated.

The program team released the police report from that year, and the identification results were no different from their deductions.

However... simply knowing about the case from back then is not their ultimate goal for this trip.

The police have already solved the case; what they still need to do is investigate the strange phenomena in the theater.

The first two tasks are just to introduce the background; the third task will probably get straight to the point.

The host smiled and said, "We'll announce the third task after dinner."

Hu Die blinked: "So what are we having for dinner tonight?"

The theater was dilapidated and didn't look like a place where you could cook.
