Chapter 55 -54: Trending Again
Thinking of this, Wenyan immediately sent a private message to the netizen whose IP address was in A Province, asking her for more details about the lullaby.
She was very polite to the netizen. The netizen was one of Wenyan’s fans and, although she didn’t know why Wenyan was so interested in the lullaby, she immediately agreed to go home and ask her mother after hearing that Wenyan wanted to hear the full version.
After thanking the netizen, Wenyan put down her phone.
She leaned back in the car seat and thought about things, and before she knew it, she was back in the downtown area.
Although the shooting had wrapped up, Zhou Junye had still reserved the hotel room for her; she tidied herself up and then took a taxi to the hospital.
She was going to visit Chai Zhaodi.
The doctor said that Chai Zhaodi’s mental state had visibly improved in the past couple of days, much better than when she first arrived at the hospital.
This was good news.
Moreover, Wenyan learned from the nurse that Zhou Junye had secretly made an additional payment for Chai Zhaodi’s medical expenses the last time they left the hospital.
So, once back in her hotel room, Wenyan immediately called Zhou Junye.
“Hello Director Zhou, this is Wenyan. I don’t know if you’ve finished work, can you talk on the phone?”
“I can talk; your call is timely, I just finished work.”
“That’s great. I wanted to tell you that Chai Zhaodi is recovering very well. I originally thought there was no need to bother you with this, but I heard you added some money for her medical expenses, so I figured I should tell you.”
“So that means you’re already back in the downtown area.”
“Yes. Well, that’s it then, I won’t disturb your rest anymore, director.”
Zhou Junye was currently with Shen Jinghe.
They were sitting close to each other; even though the speaker wasn’t on, Shen Jinghe could still hear Wenyan’s voice on the phone.
Seeing that Wenyan was about to hang up, Shen Jinghe quickly signaled to Zhou Junye and swiftly typed out several keywords in the notes app on his phone.
Understanding, Zhou Junye immediately put his phone on speaker and asked Wenyan,
“Oh, have you been to the police station? Has there been any progress with Chai Zhaodi’s case?”
“Somewhat, but not really,” Wenyan briefly shared the police’s response and the matter of the lullaby with Zhou Junye.
Then she continued, “I still feel there are some doubts. After returning to the downtown area, I called that officer again to explain the situation, but he didn’t accept my point of view.”
Zhou Junye had actually thought it over; if worse came to worst, he could just let Chai Zhaodi stay in the mental hospital for life, a cost he and Wenyan could afford.
He even planned to persuade Wenyan to do just that.
But then Shen Jinghe typed out another line on his phone screen.
‘Ask her what she intends to do.’
Zhou Junye was slightly surprised and silently asked, ‘Are you getting involved?’
Shen Jinghe quickly typed another line.
‘I’m already involved.’
“Okay,” Zhou Junye lowered his voice to a whisper, “then I’ll join you in this round.”
Shen Jinghe chuckled. He couldn’t recall who had insisted on suing that troublemaking assistant director and the marketing accounts last time.
They exchanged glances, and Zhou Junye then asked Wenyan, “Do you still plan to investigate on your own?”
Wenyan wasn’t so arrogant, “I definitely don’t have the capability to investigate on my own.”
“So what do you mean?”
“Public opinion!” both said almost simultaneously.
“Right!” Wenyan continued, “We can only ask netizens to help spread the word. Oh, and when we found Chai Zhaodi that day, did any crew member take a video?”
“Yes, there are some.”
“Could I trouble you, Director Zhou, to get that video for me? I’d like to take it back, edit it, and then release it. There might be some parts that need to be blurred,” Wenyan said.
“I’ll handle it. A good deed should be seen through to the end. Let’s work on this together,” Zhou Junye replied.
“But… are you sure you can handle it?” she asked.

“You forgot, we’re not just one person, we’re an entire crew,” he reassured her.
Wenyan was still worried, “Last time I called the police, some colleagues in the crew disagreed. If my insistence causes them to exert extra effort, not only would they be unhappy, I would also feel guilty.”
“Wenyan, would you listen to the director? You really don’t have to worry about this,” he said.
…The crew is indeed very busy, but Shen Jinghe’s team is available.
For now, Shen Jinghe Studio’s schedule is relatively open.
Wenyan decided to trust Zhou Junye: “Alright. I also took some photos of her at the hospital, I’ll send them to you.”
“Good, and send me the recording of her humming the lullaby too. By the way, since we’re going to reveal it, we need to explain everything clearly. Both our crew and you will definitely be mentioned, do you mind?” he asked.
“Blur them a bit. This is going to be social news exposure. I don’t object, and I’m even open to individual interviews in the future, but there’s no need to focus deliberately,” she said.
“Great, that’s what I was thinking too,” he agreed.
As soon as the call ended, Wenyan received a recording from a fan.
It was a lullaby her mother was asked to hum by a fan.
Wenyan listened to it over and over, confirming it was indeed the same song that the Chain Woman had hummed.
She then compiled all her findings—texts, recordings, and photos—into a package and sent it to Zhou Junye.
Zhou Junye immediately forwarded all the information to Shen Jinghe.
–
The efficiency of Shen Jinghe Studio was exceptional.
By prime time that evening, Wenyan received a message from Zhou Junye.
‘Check the trending search.’
Wenyan promptly logged into the social platform and immediately saw several topics.
#’Lost Voice’ Crew Discovers Chained Woman Suspected of Being Abducted# Explosive!
#Woman Locked in Shabby Cabin in the Deep Mountains# Explosive!
#ChainedWoman#
#’Lost Voice’ Crew#
#ShenJingheJacket#
Upon seeing the words ‘Lost Voice’ crew, Wenyan subconsciously furrowed her brows.
They had previously agreed over the phone not to focus on it, and Director Zhou Junye had expressed his agreement. So why was ‘Lost Voice’ still trending?
If they were riding on this trend, it would be somewhat unethical.
But when Wenyan looked into it, she realized she had misunderstood.
The story was broken by a journalist specializing in social news.
Although his exposé used a lot of materials provided by the crew and Wenyan, it did not specifically name ‘Lost Voice’ or any actors within the crew.
Throughout the report, the journalist only mentioned ‘a crew’ and ‘crew actor’ and other ambiguous terms.
Nonetheless, detective fans on the internet still managed to unravel that it was the ‘Lost Voice’ crew.
Even eagle-eyed fans pointed out that the jacket Cha Zhao Di was wearing when she was rescued belonged to Shen Jinghe’s private collection.
