The Villain Just Wants to be a Salted Fish

Perhaps it was due to not clearly telling Wei Bei on the first day of shooting, which caused Wei Bei to feel that the other three were hiding something from the group.

Therefore, in the next few days of filming, Wei Bei was pestering Ye Zexi or He Jinyun. After all, with the virtue of their program group, it is not possible to give them another undercover.

Ye Zexi did not mind, but when Wei Bei was about to follow the two on the fourth day, He Jinyun couldn't help but drive him away: "We don't seem to be in the same group, right?"

Wei Bei's eyes widened: "We can also work together if we are not in the same group! The problem now is that the three of them must have some clues that are hidden from us, so we have to be unanimous to the outside world!"

He Jinyun's tone was light: "First of all, I don't think they have any more clues than us. Second, you should return to your team. After all, our next game is played in groups."

Wei Bei started to grieve: "But we can also do it in groups of three!"

He Jinyun was merciless: "But I don't want to be with you."

"Damn! How could you be like this!" Wei Bei said, "Are we still friends?"

"From now on, not anymore." He Jinyun said.

Wei Bei: "..."

Alright!

Seeing Wei Bei slumped back to find her, You Jia rolled her eyes secretly.

Forget it, she can't be angry with an idiot!

At the end of the fourth day of recording, the six guests got another clue. So far, they got three clues in total, and the whole story had a rough outline.

The script of "Who is the Wolf" is very simple, telling the story of a herder family.

There are a total of six people in the herdsman's family: parents, grandparents, sister and younger brother.

Their family lived a peaceful and happy life on the prairie, but this peaceful life was shattered by the arrival of the wolf.

The wolf is good at disguising. Now it is hidden in the family of herders. Every night, the wolf will kill a random person.

The guests can only save the herder family by reasoning out the identity of the wolf.

It's just that although the outline of the story has become clear now, they still lack one key information--that is the identity of the guests themselves.

"So what exactly are our identities?" Yu Yan scratched his hair, really wondering.

You Jia said: "If we don't have any identity information, it's useless for us to get so many clues."

Ye Zexi took a bite of the crispy fried fish and frowned: "There must be some information we forgot on the first day."

He Jinyun and Ye Zexi looked at each other and fell into thinking at the same time.

After a while, Ye Zexi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at He Jinyun, who happened to also raise his eyes to look at him, and the two said in unison: "It's the seat."

Ye Zexi's mouth curled up: "Then the identity of the wolf is now clear."

He Jinyun nodded: "Well, I don't even need clues for the next two days."

The rest were dumbfounded: "What?"

He Jinyun smiled and looked at the director group on the side: "Director, we already know the answer."

The smile on the director's face froze, and he frowned, "What then?"

Ye Zexi took a small fried fish and stood up, and said, "Let's have a discussion."

The director was quite vigilant: "What to discuss?"

"Don't worry," Ye Zexi said, "I definitely won't cheat the director team!"

He Jinyun smiled and said: "We only guessed the identity of the wolf once. We decided to use the opportunity now. If we get the answer right, how about changing the schedule of the remaining two days to free travel?"

Director: "...Why should I agree with you?"

Ye Zexi: "Then director, you can't let us play a meaningless game for two more days when we all know the answer, right?"

Director:"......"

It also seems to make sense.

Yu Yan was shocked when he heard this: "Do you already know who the wolf is?"

Ye Zexi nodded: "It's very simple."

He Jinyun agreed: "It's not difficult."

Jiang Ran: "..."

So how did they figure out who the wolf is based on such a few pieces of information?

Wei Bei and You Jia were not surprised, but were a little happy, and stepped forward to persuade the director.

Now that they all know the answer in advance, the director team has to let them continue to pretend not to know. What's the point?

In the end, the director was too upset, so he could only grit his teeth and said, "Are you sure you have thought it through? You only have one chance. If you answer incorrectly this time, then you will have no chance to answer on the last day."

Ye Zexi was confident: "I'm sure."

He Jinyun smiled: "The wolf is You Jia, the only daughter of the herdsman."

As soon as he said this, the director 's eyes widened, and his face was full of disbelief.

"How did you guess it?" the director asked in shock.

Ye Zexi said: "It's very simple. First of all, the first day we got a broken diary, the handwriting on the diary was very immature, and entries are of boring daily life, but there was only one sentence,'Sister is going to get married,' that's the main point."

"From the time in the diary, we can know that when the brother wrote this diary, he was in fourth grade, and this brother was only ten years old at this time."

"The third day's clues gave information about family members' birthdays. The key information is that the older sister and the younger brother are six years apart, that is to say, when the older sister was sixteen, she was married."

Having said that, Ye Zexi was a little uncomfortable, and his brows wrinkled slightly.

He Jinyun was aware of this and took his words and began to add: "But the older sister was not happy after getting married. She was sold to her current husband by the patriarchal father, based on the photos we got on the third day. Here, one of the pictures is of money."

"Within half a year, the sister got pregnant, but unfortunately, the sister had a miscarriage. The sister, who could bear no children, was abused by her husband and the in-laws, and the humiliated sister chose to flee the husband's home."

"But this home is not a haven for her."

At this point, He Jinyun's expression became a little serious: "So, on the fourth day, we got another photo with the scars on the sister's body. It was a whip wound. But the sister's husband's family is not a herder, and this kind of whip can only be produced by the herders."

The tragedy also started here.

First, the patriarchal father, then being ridiculed by the younger brother, then the indifferent grandparents, and finally the mother who is just as strenuous as the sister.

At the end of the story, there is a fire.

This is why Ye Zexi and the others had burnt marks.

After listening to Ye Zexi and He Jinyun tell the complete story, all the guests on the scene were silent for a moment.

In the end, Wei Bei took the lead in breaking the silence: "Then how do you infer that You Jia is the older sister?"

Everyone looked at Ye Zexi and He Jinyun again.

Ye Zexi said, "Do you still remember our seats on the first day?"

You Jia suddenly recovered: "So our identity has been identified then?"

He Jinyun nodded: "Yes, the clue we get today is the family portrait. The first one is father and grandfather, the middle is grandma and younger brother, and the last is mother and sister. Correspondingly, Yu Yan is the father, Jiang Ran is the grandfather, Zexi and I are the younger brother and the grandma, Wei Bei and You Jia are the mother and the sister respectively."

"That's it." Yu Yan understood at this time, and at the same time he was very emotional, "The program group will really know how to play! On the first day, you said you will give us the clue on our identities, but in the end, we still have to figure it out ourselves!"

Jiang Ran nodded in agreement.

If it were not for someone with a good IQ, they may not be able to find the wolf even when they finally got all the clues.

You Jia smiled and looked at the two of them: "How is it, does it feel good to be carried by others?" [1]

"Very nice!" Yu Yan and Jiang Ran said in unison.

It was also at this time that they understood why You Jia and Wei Bei would tell them not to worry about finding clues on the first day.

There are really two powerful people like Ye Zexi and He Jinyun leading the flight, so don't have to worry.

Looking at the director's group on the side, everyone was full of displeasure.

This time they clearly wrote the script seriously! Why is it still gameover before time is up?

The director was still unwilling and decided to struggle one last time: "Are you sure you won't change the answer? I must remind you that you only have one chance..."

"Did we get it right? Director, we have said it before, do you want us to be frank?" Wei Bei interrupted the director aloud, "We are sure, we won't change it!"

"No change!" everyone said in unison.

Director:"......"

Okay, they lost again!

The camera was still rolling, what could the director team do? Of course, they could only agree with tears in their eyes!

So the next two days became free travel time for the six guests.

Traveling while getting paid is simply double happiness!

It's just a pity that the time of having fun always passes faster.

In the blink of an eye, two days were over.

On the last recording night, He Jinyun cooked as usual and fried Ye Zexi's favorite dried fish.

After a few days of getting along, Yu Yan and Jiang Ran also adapted to the way these two interact.

It's just that Yu Yan still couldn't help feeling. He Jinyun's attitude was so obvious, why didn't Ye Zexi notice it?

Perhaps his gaze was too blunt. He Jinyun noticed his gaze and looked over here.

Yu Yan was shocked, and quickly moved his eyes.

Ye Zexi was handing a plate to He Jinyun. Seeing him in a daze, he couldn't help but ask, "What are you looking at?"

Following He Jinyun's gaze, Ye Zexi saw Yu Yan at the end of his sight.

Why does He Jinyun look at Yu Yan?

Ye Zexi frowned.

He Jinyun retracted his gaze, took the plate, and said casually: "Nothing."

Why did Ye Zexi feel that He Jinyun's words are a bit perfunctory?

But now was not a good time for questioning, Ye Zexi could only slightly suppress the slight irritability in his heart.

Forget it, I'll ask again when I have a chance, Ye Zexi thought.

It's just a pity that He Jinyun flew out that night before Ye Zexi found the right opportunity to ask questions.

Before leaving, He Jinyun also sent a message to Ye Zexi specially, telling him that because of a temporary incident, he must leave first, and he would see him when the promotion for the movie starts.

Ye Zexi woke up the next morning and immediately lost his spirit when he saw the message.

He didn't get to ask the question, but He Jinyun left already.

Is it possible that he was afraid that he would ask too much?

With this idea, Ye Zexi was not in very high spirits this morning.

Even Gao Shu discovered his abnormality. On the way to the airport, Gao Shu asked Ye Zexi several times if he was unwell.

Ye Zexi denied it, only saying that he felt quite annoyed.

But let him explain why he was feeling this, Ye Zexi couldn't explain it.1

Why?

He also wanted to ask Yu Yan.
