Su Han and Ye Xiang both stared at Hou Tianbai's headless body with a fierce gaze. Although this scene was quite terrifying, compared to the red high heels, it made people forget about the fear. Moreover, compared to ghosts, a dead body didn't seem so scary.

Ye Xiang silently apologized to Hou Tianbai in his heart. Although he respected the deceased, when it came to the cursed high heels that were crucial to his survival, he couldn't give up!

So, he finally made a move!

He pounced on top of Hou Tianbai's body!

This scene shocked Su Han and Yu Chen.

Although Su Han also wanted the high heels, no matter what, all actions now had to follow the normal behavior logic of their characters. In their eyes, the deceased was Hang Qingshu, and the normal reaction should be to protect the crime scene and inform everyone.

So, even if they wanted to take the high heels, they had to find a reasonable excuse to search his pockets. How could they directly take them like Ye Xiang?

However, Ye Xiang's next actions shocked everyone.

He lifted Hou Tianbai's body and pulled open his back clothes. While lifting his body, Ye Xiang intentionally made his pocket face downwards. Suddenly, a red high heel fell out!

He immediately picked up the high heel and put it in his pocket. At the same time, he reluctantly used 50 redemption tickets to obtain full ownership of the high heels! This caused the number of redemption tickets to decrease to 111!

"Why... why did you open his clothes?" Yu Chen quickly asked.

A quick look at tinyurl.com/2p9emv8w will leave you more fulfilled.

"I wanted to see if there were any postmortem lividity marks on his back," Ye Xiang threw out the excuse he had already thought of, "After a person dies, due to the cessation of blood circulation, blood will accumulate in the lower parts of the body within 2-4 hours because of the lack of force. If there are postmortem lividity marks, we can determine the time of death. Also, we still need to protect the crime scene!"

Su Han immediately became furious. He never expected Ye Xiang to be so cunning! With just one sentence of "checking for postmortem lividity marks," he perfectly concealed his actions! He immediately said, "Wait! The high heel that fell out of his pocket just now might be an important piece of evidence. Let me see!"

Su Han thought, even if you fooled me just now, what about now? You took the deceased's belongings and what explanation do you have?

However, Ye Xiang said, "This high heel is mine! Although I don't know why, Hang Qingshu obviously stole my shoes!"

"What?" Su Han was stunned and asked, "Your shoes? Are you kidding me?"

"Can't I have a cross-dressing fetish?" Ye Xiang said coldly, "What does it have to do with you?"

"Nonsense!" Su Han couldn't contain his anger. He was about to explode, but Yu Chen stopped him.

"What are you arguing about at a time like this? Someone has died! Who cares about high heels or not!"

As he spoke, he tightly squeezed Su Han's hand.

Su Han immediately understood that the high heels were already Ye Xiang's possession, and he couldn't snatch them back.

In the Hell Cinema, there were relatively loose restrictions on obtaining cursed items for the actors. Because obtaining cursed items might lead to some forced plot developments, the actors were not strictly required to follow the plot logic in this regard. When Ye Xiang came into contact with the high heels, he received a script prompt to collect them within three seconds, otherwise, he would either have to discard them or consider himself the temporary owner of the shoes and pay redemption tickets.

After putting away the high heels and obtaining full ownership through redemption tickets, the script revised the high heels as Ye Xiang's possession. Although this made the plot seem forced, it wouldn't result in an NG (no good) take.

Su Han knew that if he continued to argue with him, he might lose more redemption tickets. And now that Ye Xiang had obtained ownership, he couldn't snatch them back, otherwise, he would die during the filming process as well.

"Hey, what's going on? Are you guys arguing?" Liu Ying's voice came.

Ye Xiang quickly ran to the corridor to stop the three of them and said, "Don't go over there! Especially you two ladies... that... that scene is too scary..."

Covering Hou Tianbai's body with a cloth, Su Han followed everyone downstairs. His companion's death was not the first time for him. He had seen even more tragic and terrifying deaths before, and his mental resilience was already strong. However, although it wasn't the first time, he still felt sad. In comparison, he didn't think much of Ye Xiang's scheme to obtain the high heels, but he also admired his resourcefulness.

"Something really happened..." Yu Chen sat down downstairs and said with his hands tightly embedded in the leather sofa, almost spitting out each word from between his teeth, "This is murder! There is a murderer hidden in this villa!"

However, in his heart, he wondered: What is the relationship between this and the prisoner imprisoned in the basement? Or is it possible that even if the prisoner is not released, people will still die? Hou Tianbai clearly had the cursed high heels, so why did he still die?

And after obtaining the high heels, Ye Xiang's redemption tickets did not increase. The last time he tore off the talisman to increase the redemption tickets was because it played an important role in reversing the plot. However, the cursed high heels had nothing to do with this horror movie, so obtaining them naturally didn't increase the redemption tickets. Only when there was a significant change in the original plot, or when he completed an important task beyond his assigned role, or even intentionally went to a dangerous place like Hou Tianbai, would it be possible to obtain redemption tickets.

"There... there's actually a murderer here?" Liu Ying's face turned pale and she almost fell down.

Zhao Xiaoya supported her and comforted her, "Don't worry, we can solve it together.""How could there be a murderer!" Su Han slammed the table in anger. At this moment, he was no longer acting, but was genuinely furious at Ye Xiang for taking the high heels! He had his own plans, intending to claim the high heels when inspecting the body. However... things had turned out this way! The high heels now belonged to Ye Xiang. If he wanted them? Sure! He could buy them with redemption tickets! But there was no upper limit to the price, Ye Xiang could ask for a sky-high price! The problem was, would Ye Xiang sell them? As a newcomer, he needed the cursed item. The three disposable talismans he had were not enough! He asked himself, if he were in Ye Xiang's shoes, he would definitely not sell! After all, redemption tickets could be earned slowly, the primary consideration was to survive!

And from now on, he could no longer mention the high heels. Normally, things that fell from the dead should be thoroughly questioned. Ye Xiang's immediate "autopsy" upon seeing the body was still somewhat forced in logic. However, when it came to obtaining cursed items, the requirement for logic was much weaker. As long as Ye Xiang's actions made some sense, it was basically acceptable, even if it was a bit forced. Now that he had obtained ownership, Su Han could only swallow his anger. If he continued to pursue the matter, he would only lose more redemption tickets. After all, there was no such content in the script!

Wu Jun was shivering in fear, saying in a terrified voice, "What... what should we do? We can't call the police, we can't get out... who is the murderer?"

At this time, the usually quiet Zhao Xiaoya spoke, "Is there really a murderer? We've searched many places and haven't seen anyone hiding. Can a living person really hide from us in such a closed villa? I don't think it's possible."

"It's hard to say." Yu Chen said, "For example... the 'prisoner' locked in the basement!"

At these words, everyone showed a shocked expression. Although it was acting, it was very realistic. After all, in this situation, it was not at all difficult to show a shocked expression.

"What do you mean?" Zhao Xiaoya frowned, "Can that 'prisoner' get out? Didn't you confirm it?"

"Yes." Yu Chen said, "But... what if the prisoner has the key to that door? What if he could come and go freely from the beginning?"

"What!"

"Are you joking?"

Yu Chen didn't waste any more words, he stood up and said, "Alright! Anyway! Let's go to the basement and see for ourselves! Let's see... if that door is still locked!"

Everyone looked at each other, and in the end, they all nodded.

So, led by Yu Chen, the five of them followed. The look Su Han gave Ye Xiang was full of resentment. Such opportunities were rare. There were only a few actors in the Hell Cinema who had cursed items! And those who had cursed items were generally not easy to kill! If he missed this time, who knew when the next time would be? However, although he held a grudge in his heart, he couldn't show it on the surface, he could only suppress it in his heart.

Ye Xiang didn't care about Su Han's gaze at all. For him, survival was the top priority. Even if it made the other party resent him, he didn't mind. If necessary in the future, he could lend it to him. If it was a lease, then the Hell Cinema would certify the lease contract. Once they returned from the horror film, they had to return the cursed item, otherwise, they would die! Leasing cursed items was also a good way to earn redemption tickets. Of course, the risk was that if the person who borrowed the cursed item died in the horror film, then it would be lost.

At this time, everyone had entered the basement. This was the first time everyone had come together. The basement, like an air-raid shelter, made everyone show a shocked expression.

Along a corridor, they finally...

Arrived in front of that door.

The confinement room.

Everyone involuntarily stopped. Ye Xiang sighed, it was a pity that the soul-summoning talisman, which would heat up when approaching a ghost, had been sealed, otherwise, he could have done some detection.

And the door, was still firmly locked, with no signs of having been opened.
