The Rebirth of the Cultivation Leader Qin Zhao as a Celebrity Chapter 504 - 503 The Murderer is Not Him

"It’s definitely Ji Shaohai who killed her."

"Where is Ji Shaohai? Where did he go?"

"I think so too, even though Wen Yi treated him so unfairly, it’s no reason to kill soone."

"Who knows, with a wife like that, I bet anyone would be ntally disturbed."

After the director ca to his senses, he called Qin Yu first.

Qin Yu told him to call the police and that he was on his way back.

While the police were being called, the others around discussed and guessed that the murderer was Wen Yi’s husband.

Qin Zhao turned his head and looked at them, then slowly said, "Although their marital relationship wasn’t good, we can’t determine the murderer based on that alone. Let’s just call the police and wait for them to investigate."

Hearing Qin Zhao’s words, everyone imdiately quieted down.

"Qin Zhao, why are you defending the murderer? Are you in cahoots with him?"

"Yeah, none of the others had any issues with Ji Shaohai; no one would kill soone without a reason."

Soone retorted discontentedly.

As for the romance between Chu Yan and Qin Zhao, while so envied it, others were jealous. Thus, when Qin Zhao simply stated the facts objectively, so couldn’t help but retort.

"You just wouldn’t let us go inside, I bet you wanted to hide evidence of the cri."

"Any sensible person knows to protect a cri scene once a murder occurs, to avoid destroying any clues that could lead the police to the murderer."

Chu Yan pushed through the crowd and ca to Qin Zhao’s side.

His cold and somber gaze fell on the staff mber who had retorted against Qin Zhao.

That person inexplicably tensed up and bowed his head, not daring to speak further.

"All of you, go downstairs and stop causing a fuss here; let’s wait for the police to arrive."

The director said impatiently, his brows furrowed, irritated beyond asure.

It wasn’t easy to plan out a couples’ variety show, with good ratings and viewership; everyone was waiting to make a good profit, but then this happened.

And the person who died was Wen Yi!

If the Wen Family pursued the matter, not only would their show be dood, but his career might not survive either!

After most people went downstairs, the director had them all stay in the living room.

"Did you find Ji Shaohai?"

"Yes, he was in the backyard the whole ti."

As a caraman walked over, Ji Shaohai followed him.

"What were you doing in the backyard?"

The director’s gaze fell on Ji Shaohai.

"Smoking, contemplating life."

Ji Shaohai tugged at the corner of his mouth, a look of despair on his face.

Standing beside him, one could indeed sll a strong scent of tobacco.

"Were you alone in the backyard?"

"I guess so, I just wanted a quiet place to be alone."

"So, there’s no one who can confirm that you were in the backyard the whole ti."

Qin Zhao asked this question.

When she saw Ji Shaohai, she observed his facial features and knew he was not the murderer.

If Ji Shaohai had really killed soone, his facial features would reveal it, and he would have an extra layer of karmic debt.

After thinking for a while, Ji Shaohai suddenly rembered, "There’s a cara in the backyard, the surveillance can prove it."

"I’ll get the landlord to pull up the footage."

The director quickly contacted the landlord.

If they could secure this evidence first, it would be more efficient when the police arrived later.

The police arrived quickly.

Before the landlord could pull up the surveillance, the police had arrived.

A sizable number of officers ca; so were examining the scene while others were questioning the staff of the show.

The director reported all he knew, and then the police turned to Ji Shaohai.

"Right now, you are the only one with a clear motive to kill."

Hearing this, Ji Shaohai beca anxious.

"How could I possibly kill her? Murder ans prison. My father is critically ill, needing a lot of dical expenses, and he requires my care. I would never ruin myself over that wretched woman!"

"Don’t get agitated, I only said you have a motive, not that you are the murderer. And the backyard where you were just now happens to have security footage, which can provide you an alibi."

"Right, right, there’s the surveillance footage."

Ji Shaohai let out a sigh of relief.

After he married Wen Yi, their relationship was quite good at first.

As ti went on, Wen Yi found a new lover and gradually began neglecting Ji Shaohai.

Ji Shaohai wanted to continue acting, but Wen Yi wouldn’t allow it.

She didn’t want Ji Shaohai to interact with other female celebrities, so she found an easy job for him within the family business.

Over the years, rumors of Wen Yi and other male celebrities kept surfacing.

The Wen Family had nurous businesses, and Wen Yi was in charge of the entertainnt industry sector, naturally coming into contact with many from the circle.

One day, Ji Shaohai caught Wen Yi cheating.

After confronting her, instead of showing remorse, Wen Yi intensified her actions, showing no consideration for his feelings.

Any normal man couldn’t tolerate such things.

Ji Shaohai couldn’t either and wanted a divorce.

Yet, Wen Yi produced a prenuptial agreent. He had thought it was a docunt for dividing assets, since when they married, her family objected and insisted on a division of property in case of divorce.

Given that Ji Shaohai ca from a modest family while Wen Yi’s was affluent, he didn’t care about her family’s wealth. His own standing in the industry was also solid, and he had genuine affection for her.

Ji Shaohai signed the agreent, not realizing it contained a hidden clause.

If he divorced Wen Yi, he would have to leave with nothing, all his assets would go to Wen Yi.

Ji Shaohai would rather have nothing than continue with Wen Yi, but his father was seriously ill, frequently requiring substantial dical expenses.

If he acted now, he could scarcely make any money and had to rely on the Wen Family.

Ji Wenhai didn’t dare divorce Wen Yi, but recently, he’d taken advantage of his position to make quite a bit of money. Although not illegal, it went against company policy.

He planned to make this last sum and then completely exit the cage that was the Wen Family.

The money was in his father’s account and wouldn’t be affected by the divorce.

Ji Shaohai sat in a chair in the room, facing a police officer, muttering to himself, "I do hate her, sotis I wish she were dead, but I’m not that stupid. I don’t want to destroy my life over her. Besides, I plan to divorce her and start a new life; there’s no need for to do this."

Thinking of starting anew, Ji Shaohai thought of his lover.

Since Wen Yi was playing around, he found soone too.

After spending ti with her, he realized she was good to him, unlike Wen Yi, and was touched, planning to divorce and be with this woman.

He had agreed to join the show because he realized the filming location was in his lover’s city.

He had hoped to et her while there.
