    Luke found Elsa and whispered a few words to her.

    After hearing this, Elsa adjusted the task again and handed over a large amount of census work to three newcomers. She and Selina teamed up to start re-examining the five most suspected candidates.

    Luke stood quietly behind them, not participating in the inquiry, but observing the expressions and reactions of these people.

    After the last person came in, all three of them greeted him: "Hello, Tot."

    This is the second person in the crew, Tot Weiss.

    He is the screenwriter of the film and the first assistant director of the crew.

    Except for Pierce, the absolute number one brother on the crew, he is the person with the most power in the crew.

    Producer?  Sorry, director Pierce is also the producer of this film.

    After a few minutes of cross-examination, Toth got up and went out.

    Elsa waited for a moment, then turned to look at Luke: "Have you noticed anything?"

    Luke walked up to the two of them: "One thing. But let me talk about your findings first to avoid my words making you preconceptions."

    The conviction of a murderer still depends on the evidence. He can roughly identify who the murderer is, but it cannot be used as evidence to close the case.

    Selena thought for a while and said: "I just recalled that the prop master and his two assistants were basically out of my sight during the filming."

    Elsa pondered for a moment and shook her head: "Luke said that the murderer used a mechanism to kill Shalan, and he may not need to be present. Maybe the murderer had such thoughts and did it. Because you and Luke are the best  Alibi.¡±

    Luke nodded in his mind.

    No one knows why Shalan fell into that trap, so the murderer cannot be identified, because the time when Shalan fell into the trap and when the murderer set up the trap most likely did not coincide with each other.

    Elsa: "Even if the person has never left the sight of you two, at most he is less suspicious. This trap may have been set up before you arrived."

    Selena and Luke both nodded.

    With this approach, the chances of the trap being discovered by others are much higher, but it is also more difficult to trace.

    Elsa looked at Luke: "Can you tell me about your discovery now?"

    Luke: "Thoth is the most suspicious."

    Both Elsa and Selina were stunned for a moment, and then Elsa asked curiously: "Why is it him?"

    This is the screenwriter and assistant director. He stays with Pierce almost all the time, and more people pay attention to him.

    Luke had already found a reason and spread his hands and said: "Because it is difficult for him to have time to commit crimes."

    Elsa's mind turned and she understood: "So, he uses traps to kill people because he can't stay away from everyone's sight for too long?"

    Luke nodded and added: "Secondly, he is the screenwriter and assistant director. He is one of the few people in this crew who can easily control the trajectory of Shalan's actions."

    Both Elsa and Selena understood.

    Although Shalan is only a third-rate actor, the only ones who can suppress her in this crew are Pierce and Toth.

    Who made this a low-budget horror film?  She is the biggest star in the film.

    Of course, Pierce has the advantage at this point.

    Even if he asked Shalan to strip naked and stand on the trap, Shalan would obediently do so.

    But Pierce had no such motive. His every move was being watched at all times, and his scent was not on the two ropes.

    Luke¡¯s keen sense of smell is similar to big data collection.

    As long as you list several locations and the smells on the crime tools, and compare the intersections, it will be difficult to conceal the identity of the murderer.

    It is true that no one has been to the circle where Shalan died today, but there is still a bit of the smell left by Thoth yesterday, and it is still the smell of Shalan.

    If someone else could only see it with their own eyes, they would be able to confirm this.

    When the shooting is going on, most people will not pay attention to the existence of other people at all.

    If Luke hadn¡¯t been pulled in by Jennifer today, Toth might have gotten away with it.

    "If it's Toth, what's his motive?" Selina wondered: "He's the screenwriter and assistant director. What good does it do him if this film brings such big negative news?"

    Neither Elsa nor Luke can give an answer to this. There are too many possibilities.

    Elsa didn¡¯t think much about this issue and decided directly: ¡°I¡¯ll let Billy and Simmons continue their investigation to attract everyone¡¯s attention.¡±"Everyone is trying their best to investigate Thoth, so I don't believe they can find any loopholes in him."  "

    Luke and Luke certainly have no objection to this.

    With three female police detectives, it would be perfect if they came to set up the crew members. Faced with less aggressive female police detectives, the communication between the two parties would be easier.

    After all, they are not the main suspects, and being too nervous will not be good for the clich¨¦.

    It was another cross-examination. Both the police detectives and the crew looked exhausted, but no one complained.

    Once this happened, it was still unclear whether the crew could continue to exist.

    A lot of people in the crew still depend on this film for a living, and the police detectives also want to solve the case as soon as possible to avoid negative consequences.

    An hour later, Elsa came back with the other two girls and gathered with Luke: "There is a problem with Tot."

    Luke said nothing, waiting for the follow-up.

    Elsa, however, remained silent. She took the mineral water from Elizabeth and drank it while gesturing for her to tell the story.

    Elizabeth handed everyone the mineral water and said, "Although not everyone, judging from our inquiries, Toth and Shalan have a good relationship, and she was recommended as the heroine by Tot."

    Luke said nothing and continued to listen.

    "However, in recent days, it is said that Pierce is not satisfied with Shalan's acting skills, and there is a vague intention to replace him." She said.

    Luke was confused: "We have already started filming. If we change people, won't we lose a lot of money?"

    Elizabeth: "There is a slight loss, but this is just a small-budget horror film, and the shooting started only a week ago. And because Pierce was dissatisfied with Shalan's acting skills, the shooting progress was less than one-tenth of the way. If the replacement was pushed back,  Reshooting would save much more money than the current expenditure."

    Luke nodded to express his understanding.

    If the acting skills are online and Pierce is satisfied, the time saved in the later stage may not be a week, but a month or even a few months, which will save more money.

    Elizabeth: "The relationship between Toth and Shallan is more than that. It is said that the two have a kind of relationship."

    Selina looked at Elizabeth's expression and interjected: "It's just an unspoken rule, nothing strange. But this is just what we inferred from the words of the staff. No one has spoken about this issue directly." After adding this,  She motioned for Elizabeth to continue.

    Elizabeth smiled awkwardly. She was a little embarrassed to talk about this kind of thing. She was only twenty-two years old, had just graduated from college, and had only been working as a police detective for more than two months. She was far from being able to face all kinds of weird realities.  A calm and collected attitude.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
