Volume Two: Chapter 255: Miraya's Revenge
"Miara's Revenge"?
Lei Zhen was no stranger to this name. There was a poster hanging in the lobby on the first floor of the dance company. The theme on the poster was "Mila Ya's Revenge".
The performance is on December 6th, which is still 10 days away.
The entire dance drama is mainly about a girl's revenge against a family in the European Middle Ages. The girl's fate was tragic, and the whole family died unexpectedly.
After her revenge was successful, the girl was caught and eventually sent to the guillotine.
The guillotine scene is the climax and the last scene of the whole play.
After listening to Luo Liangong's explanation, Lei Zhen asked a question: "Do you think this scene will be related to Shen Lele's death?"
Luo Liangong did not look at Lei Zhen. He stared at the coffee table and said slowly: "It should be related."
Xu Hui on the side quickly wrote it down in her notebook.
"What you don't know is that the script of this play was written by a screenwriter who just passed away. Our group has a deep relationship with this screenwriter. In his will, he gave us the sole performance rights of this play."
Lei Zhen vaguely felt something: "This drama should have a lot of attention in your circle, right?"
Luo Liangong nodded, "The will only allows us to perform in public once, and December 6th is not only the first performance, but also the last performance.
At that time, many seniors in the circle will come to watch, and those people are all leading figures in Sanjiang Province and even the country."
Such a high-profile performance is undoubtedly an opportunity for Daewoo Dance Company to soar into the sky.
Similarly, it is also an opportunity for the actors in the troupe to rise to fame. As long as they can win the favor of those masters in their performances, their future acting career will naturally be smooth sailing.
If you want to gain attention in a performance, your acting skills are one thing, and your character also plays a big role.
"So Shen Lele is the actor who plays Miraya?" Lei Zhen asked.
In this way, even if there is a motive, there will definitely be people who cannot resist the temptation in the face of such a soaring opportunity.
Luo Liangong twisted his face and shook his head: "The actor originally chosen to play the role was named Xue Hanqiao, who is the best actor here.
Shen Lele's usual performance can barely be considered among the top ten. In order to win this role, she has been working hard recently."
Having said this, Luo Liangong lit a cigarette.
"Then what?" Lei Zhen urged. The initial choice was Xue Hanqiao, which shows that the final choice was not her.
"Later, after discussion, we decided to let Shen Lele play the female lead. But last week, the boss of our dance company suddenly spoke and asked that the female lead be replaced by his daughter."
A few years ago, Daewoo Dance Troupe was forced to seek help from the public due to financial problems. A boss from Xinfeng City directly spent tens of millions to buy it.
Not only did it solve the salary problem for everyone, but it also built a large enough theater.
The boss's name is Xie Xin, and he is the largest real estate developer in Xinfeng City. His daughter is Xie Sha, who has been studying abroad, and her major is dance.
Lei Zhen smacked his lips. If the murderer was trying to compete for the heroine's spot, the target should be Xie Sha.
"Captain Luo! Is there a scene in the script where Miraya dances on the rooftop?" Lei Zhen suddenly asked.
Luo Liangong was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Yes, when she decided to kill someone, she danced barefoot on the rooftop, sacrificing herself to the devil in her heart."
"Can you let me take the script away?" Lei Zhen felt that the murderer had a close relationship with the script. "Don't worry, we will keep the contents confidential."
Luo Liangong was very cooperative, and soon someone sent him a copy of the script.
After putting away the script, Luo Liangong helped find Xiao Zhen, Shen Lele's best friend in the group.
Xiao Zhen is older than Shen Lele, 26 years old, and is an old employee of the dance troupe. She has been in the dance troupe since she graduated from high school.
"Lele?" Xiao Zhen didn't know that something had happened to Shen Lele, "She is very kind and helpful. She is very generous in lending money and everything else."
Xiao Zhen's comments about Shen Lele were very positive and they were all praising her.
"Do you think she offended anyone in the group?"
Lei Zhen's question made Xiao Zhen frown. She knew that the person who came to ask the question was the police, "What happened to Lele?"
Lei Zhen nodded: "She is dead!"
Xiao Zhen's change was natural. She was shocked at first, covered her mouth with one hand, and her whole body began to tremble.
She lowered her head and held her knees tightly with both hands, "It must be Xue Hanqiao! Lele stole her heroine, and she has been talking behind her back these days."
Lei Zhen was puzzled: "Are you so sure? Didn't the heroine become Xie Sha in the end? Even without Shen Lele, she still wouldn't be the heroine!"
"Although Lele also became the heroine in the end, Xue Hanqiao has always been worried about this matter. If anyone in the group wants to harm Lele, it must be Xue Hanqiao."
Xiao Zhen's answer was firm, which made Lei Zhen interested in Xue Hanqiao.
After Xiao Zhen left, Lei Zhen called Xue Hanqiao again. This girl was very beautiful and tall. She looked like a dancer.
What concerned Lei Zhen was that Xue Hanqiao looked very tired and looked like he had not slept well.
"Shen Lele is dead, did you know?"
Different questioning methods should be used for different people. Lei Zhen can feel that Xue Hanqiao does not look like a murderer based on his experience.
Xue Hanqiao was startled at first and glanced at Lei Zhen in disbelief, then the corners of his mouth raised, giving people a feeling of gloating.
"A good death! This bitch shouldn't live. Her presence in the dance troupe is an insult to the profession of dancer!"
Xue Hanqiao looked at Lei Zhen with a confident look, "Don't you suspect that I killed her?"
Lei Zhen did not express his position. He could feel that Xue Hanqiao was not the murderer, but Xue Hanqiao must know something that others did not know.
Xue Hanqiao raised her head arrogantly: "I would not hesitate to sell my body to become a heroine. Killing her will only dirty my hands."
Considering the abnormal behavior of Luo Liangong and deputy leader Wang Yaolong just now, Lei Zhen nodded slowly.
"Who have you seen her with?"
It may be true that Shen Lele betrayed her body, and it is possible for both Luo Liangong and Wang Yaolong.
She originally obtained the qualification to be the heroine through body trade, but because of the interference of the big boss Xie Xin, Shen Lele's plan fell through.
She may use this as a threat to make the other party find a way to make her the heroine.
This is why Luo Liangong asked Shen Lele what he told them at the beginning.
In order to protect one's own reputation and kill others, this can be regarded as a motive.
Although there were only three of them in the room, Xue Hanqiao still glanced at the closed door.
