Detective From the Future

Chapter 273: True purpose.

"Officer Han, I can't go to the police station with you right now. I have to take care of this matter, or next time I'll show you a picture instead of words." Mu Xin Ran looked anxious.

"How are you going to handle this?"

"I will ask my friends from the entertainment industry to help me," Mu Xin Ran said superficially.

Han Bin didn't keep asking. There's so much bullshit in the entertainment industry, and he didn't want to get involved.

...

After returning to the branch, Han Bin poured himself a cup of coffee, then called Li Hui to the interrogation room. Li Hui was very interested in the entertainment industry, so he recommended himself along the way and wanted to interview Ma Peng Kun with Han Bin. When Han Bin walked into the interrogation room, Ma Peng Kun was already sitting on the interrogation chair, looking around occasionally.

"Officer Han, you really arrested the wrong person. Secretly filming Mu Xin Ran really has nothing to do with me," Ma Peng Kun said.

"Who said you were guilty? We haven't asked you anything yet, so you won't blame yourself," Li Hui snorted.

"No, I just can't understand. Apart from this matter, what else can you ask me?" Ma Peng Kun asked.

Han Bin replied irrelevantly: "How many artists does your company have?"

"More than twenty, if Officer Han has a celebrity, he likes, I can help you get an autographed photo," Ma Peng Kun said.

"Do all the artists in your company have wiretapping software installed on their cell phones?" Han Bin asked hesitantly.

Ma Peng Kun's face turned ugly: "No, no, you can't joke about that stuff."

Han Bin took a sip of coffee: "Mr. Ma Peng Kun, do you think I invited you to come from the hotel just to make fun of you?"

"I..." Ma Peng Kun momentarily lost words and lowered his head.

"Be honest and forgiving and don't resist harshly. Now that we've talked about it, you should take the initiative and cooperate with our police work. Don't cause trouble for the police or make yourself miserable." Han Bin said coldly.

Ma Peng Kun hesitated for a long time: "Officer Han, I really don't know what you mean?"

"You don't know or don't mean?"

"It's not I don't want to say, it's that I don't know," Ma Peng Kun sketched a wry smile.

Han Bin turned his head and said to Li Hui who was next door: "You will apply for a subpoena certificate and summon all New Era Entertainment artists to the police station to see if they have wiretap software installed in their mobile phones.

"It's so busy, with a dozen or twenty celebrities sitting here at the police station and Qingdao police station must be the only one with this privilege," Li Hui joked.

"No, no, no, no, I'm ready to cooperate with the police, and I'm ready to do it," Ma Peng Kun shouted hurriedly.

What Han Bin and Li Hui said earlier was only to scare Ma Peng Kun. The summons is not an arrest warrant. These artists are not in Qingdao. The police can only summon them verbally by telephone. It is estimated that the stars will not come, but it will certainly leak the news.

Once news of bugs being installed in artists' cell phones spreads, New Era Entertainment's reputation will be permanently damaged, the officials under its leadership will be alienated, and Ma Peng Kun will also be blocked by this circle.

"Have you installed the wiretapping software on Mu Xin Ran's phone?" Han Bin asked eagerly.

Ma Peng Kun hesitated for a moment and saw that Han Bin was frowning and seemed a little impatient, so he said hastily: "Yes, I did."

"Why did you do it?"

"II can't help you on that either." Ma Peng Kun sighed.

"Tell me, why can't you do it?" Li Hui narrowed his eyes and became interested.

"Mu Xin Ran can be said to be popular in our company. Our company has invested a lot of resources in her, and she has become more and more popular in the past two years. Seeing the contract is about to expire, I asked the manager of the human resources department of Mu Xin Ran to mention the contract renewal, but Mu Xin Ran played the eye of the horse, then I told her personally, and she kept not saying that she would consider it, and she sees that there are still six months left before the date of the end of the contract, so you can tell me that I am not in a hurry. Well," Ma Peng Kun said helplessly.

"So you put wiretap software on her cell phone?"

"Yes," Ma Peng Kun replied and said hastily: "However, I have no bad intentions. I just wanted to hear what the other side thought. If they want to contact other brokerage companies, I can know in advance and take certain measures."

"Do other artists in your company also have wiretap software installed on their cell phones?" Li Hui asked.

"No, absolutely not, Mu Xin Ran is the first artist in our company. Most of the company's resources are devoted to her. Other artists are incomparable. Once she leaves the company, she will take with her away a lot of resources. That's what worries us the most," Ma Peng Kun said.

"Did you hear that blackmail call?"

"This..." Ma Peng Kun frowned.

"Say!" Li Hui growled.

"I listen to it, I heard it," Ma Peng Kun replied.

"Tell me about the contents of the blackmail call."

"It was a man who called. He said that Mu Xin Ran's house had been watched, and he said she was a bad woman who did not appear outside. He said she should no longer play the role of a good wife and mother, that she must stop filming movies and television series related to this role, it is better to study abroad and think about the behavior of these years," recalled Ma Peng Kun.

"Do you still have the recording?"

Ma Peng Kun hesitated: "Yes."

"Yes, you did a good job," Han Bin smiled.

"I know what I did was wrong and will never do it again."

No matter how beautiful Ma Peng Kun was on the outside, in the interrogation room, he could only admit his cowardice.

"I can't even hear the words, and we sincerely congratulate you," Li Hui laughed.

With the mobile phone extortion record, they can prove whether there was extortion, and they will know who is lying, Jiang Er Kang or Mu Xin Ran.

"During the extortion call, did the kidnapper want to extort money?" Han Bin asked.

"No," Ma Peng Kun said.

Obviously, it was Mu Xin Ran who was lying.

"Mu Xin Ran said she was blackmailed for 10 million Yuan, do you know that?" Han Bin asked tentatively.

"I didn't know it at first. She just told me that she was being secretly filmed, and hoped the company could help her with this. I told her that as long as she was ready to renew her contract with the company for another ten years, I could help her settle this matter," Ma Peng Kun paused. After a pause, he continued recalling: "Mu Xin Ran told me that she had lied about being blackmailed after calling the police. If the police ask me questions, I don't let her down."

"OK, you stars don't just play on TV, but also in front of the police. Do you really think we're fools?" Han Bin said coldly.

"Don't get me wrong. I never wanted to deceive the police. When I learned Mu Xin Ran had lied to the police that she had been blackmailed for ten million Yuan, I insulted her and told her that she had done something stupid. However, she didn't believe me anymore," Ma Peng Kun sighed and continued: "Even she might have suspected I asked someone to secretly film her. In the past, the relationship between the two of us was very good. I didn't expect it to come to this today."

"Did you find someone to secretly take it on video?" Han Bin asked.

"How is that possible? I wouldn't do such a stupid thing."

"You wouldn't but just tap his phone?" sniffed Han Bin.

"It's different. After all, Mu Xin Ran is still an artist in our company and brings a lot of our company's resources. Things like sneak shots are easy to leak. Once leaked, it will not only destroy Mu Xin Ran, but will also affect our company's resources and cause great loss to the company, and I will not do such a stupid thing," Ma Peng Kun said.

"You come from the entertainment industry and have heard of extortion calls. What do you think is the purpose of the suspect to secretly take photos of Mu Xin Ran?" Han Bin asked.

"There are two possibilities. The first possibility is to seek revenge, to take revenge on Mu Xin Ran; the second possibility is for character design."

"Do you think that's the most likely?" Han Bin asked.

"If it's revenge, I personally don't think it's necessary to make a blackmail call. If you just send the surveillance video, Mu Xin Ran's reputation will be ruined, so it's more likely to compete for the character design," Ma Peng Kun analyzed.

Li Hui frowned: "What does it mean to compete for character design and how to compete?"
