At around seven o'clock in the evening, after dinner in the studio, Karasumaying and Hoshino Terumi left the room together.
"Xiaoying, is it settled then?"
"okay."
"I'll have someone send the payment first thing in the morning tomorrow morning."
"It doesn't matter if you don't have to be in such a hurry, Sister Terumi."
"Ah, um, you two..."
The two walked to the elevator side by side, only to find that someone was already standing here, looking like they were waiting for them.
"Somei, are you okay?" Looking at Somei Shogo who looked troubled, Hoshino Terumi narrowed her eyes slightly.
There were water stains on Somei Shogo's shoulders and hair. It started to rain outside at almost seven o'clock in the evening. It looked like he had just come back from outside.
"Um, Miss Hoshino..."
Glancing at Hoshino Terumi in embarrassment, Somei Shogo looked at Karasumaying and asked pleadingly:
"If possible, could you let Miss Karasuma and my producer meet?"
As if he had expected it, as soon as Somei Shogo finished asking, Hoshino Terumi rejected her unceremoniously.
"Somei, have I told you this before? Xiaoying has been invited to be my consultant. She is still a student and does not have time to serve as a consultant for two programs at the same time."
"No, it's not like that, Ms. Hoshino!"
Knowing that Hoshino Terumi had misunderstood, Somei Shogo quickly explained:
"We just have a few questions to ask Ms. Karasuma! That...is about Detective Mori!"
"Detective Mori?"
When Hoshino Terumi heard this, she was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized.
"So you have already decided? The candidate is the Maori detective?"
"Yes, the producers decided to let the Maori detective participate in our program this time.
Because Miss Karasuma is the assistant of Detective Mori, our producer wanted to ask Miss Karasuma about some things about Detective Mori first, so that he will be more confident when discussing with Detective Mori..."
"Mr. Mori?" Karasuma Ying looked at Hoshino Terumi in confusion.
"Well, for their program that involves close contact with famous detectives 24 hours a day, the candidate has not been finalized before, but now it seems that it has been decided."
Hoshino Terumi explained patiently.
"Xiaoying, if you are interested, I can accompany you."
Since Somei Shogo's target is not Karasuma Ei, she doesn't mind at all.
Although Hoshino Terumi hated Somei Shogo's producer, if she just asked about some things related to Detective Mori, I guess as long as she followed, there would be no problem.
"Please! Miss Karasuma!" Shogo Somei bowed and said loudly.
"Okay, okay..." Faced with his sincere attitude, Karasumaying agreed reluctantly.
So she just has no idea about this kind of people...
"..."
The producer Shogo Somei's studio was on another floor. After the three of them got out of the elevator together, Shogo Somei led them towards the producer's room.
"Mr. Somei, don't you need to change some clothes first?" Karasuma Ying couldn't help but ask as she followed behind.
The clothes on both shoulders of Somei Shogo were still wet, which looked very conspicuous.
"It's okay, I just came back from outside. It won't be too late to change after you meet Mr. Producer, Ms. Karasuma, haha...
Speaking of which, it rained really heavily tonight. It really scared me to death when it started raining suddenly... Ah, go this way, it's here. "
"Ding dong!"
Walking to a door, Somei Shogo rang the doorbell.
The three of them waited quietly outside the door, but after waiting for a long time, no one came to open the door.
"Huh? Strange?" Somei Shogo was a little confused and rang the doorbell several times in succession.
"It seems Mr. Producer is out."
Seeing this, Terumi Hoshino lit a cigarette for herself and said to Karasumaying next to her:
"Just in time, no need to wait, let's go, Xiaoying, I'll drive you back first."
"Huh? Well, okay..."
"Please wait a moment!"
At this moment, Somei Shogo quickly stopped the two of them and said:
"I think it's impossible for the producer to be away now, because this is the time he agreed with me in the afternoon..."
"Somei, but there is really no one to open the door now." Hoshino Terumi reminded.
"Ms. Hoshino, I'm a little worried, maybe something happened... because the producer's state is indeed abnormal recently.
Do you still remember? It was the news that the producer was responsible for the fraud of a program that broke out before. Although this incident was later confirmed to have nothing to do with the producer, because the producer was responsible for the production of that program, he has always blamed himself.
Recently, he has been drinking frequently, and every time he is drunk, he will say that he does not want to live anymore...
So I'm a little worried whether he will suddenly have these negative emotions while waiting for us, and then, then..."
"Does a person like him actually want to commit suicide? It really surprises me."
Hoshino Terumi sneered. Although she said this, she still took out her mobile phone and called the front desk staff.
Soon, the staff came with the spare key and opened the door.
"Mr. Producer!"
Somei Shogo couldn't wait to open the door, but as soon as the door was opened a little, it was immediately stuck again.
"It's an anti-theft chain." Karasuma Ying frowned slightly.
The door to this room was locked from the inside with an anti-theft chain.
There is indeed someone in the room.
But why, no one has opened the door before?
For no reason, she suddenly felt uneasy in her heart.
"Can you cut the chains?"
She turned to look at the staff beside her, with a hint of anxiety in her tone.
"Oh, okay." The staff member took out the steel bar scissors from his backpack, clicked towards the anti-theft chain, and cut it easily.
"Mr. Producer!"
The door was finally opened, Somei Shogo rushed in first, Karasuma Ei followed closely, Hoshino Terumi walked in slowly, and the staff were left at the door.
"Miss Karasuma! I'm going to the living room to check on the situation. I'll leave it to you in the study!"
"good."
Without thinking much, Karasumaying ran towards the study in the direction pointed by Shogo Somei.
The study room in this house is very clean, and all the books are neatly placed on the bookshelves. It is obvious at a glance that they are the owner's furnishings.
"Mr. Producer! How are you?! Wake up!"
At this moment, Shogo Somei's sharp shout suddenly sounded from the direction of the living room.
Karasuma Ying and Hoshino Terumi who were in the corridor heard the sound and ran towards the living room at the same time.
"Please watch the door!"
"Okay, okay!"
After shouting to the staff at the door, Karasumaying quickly ran into the living room.
In the living room, a fat middle-aged man was lying on the floor with a ferocious face.
It looked like he was probably dead.
