In order to help Vann find the victim earlier, I was also trying very hard to recall what I have seen and
heard this month.
But I couldn't help shaking my head, "I really haven't seen any strange person or met anything strange.
I'm busy with filming, and I don't know many people. Besides, people I come into contact with are all
very hospitable. There is no one who looks like to be the murderer. "
My answer may disappoint them. After all, I failed to provide them with any clues.
Xenia's reaction was obvious. "What a pity. It seems that this trip is all in vain. I don't know if that poor
woman is safe or not."
Vann didn't give up. "No matter how popular Jasmine is in this village, she is still an outsider to them.
The chance of this kind of thing she knows is very small. It doesn't matter. I will try my best to
investigate it. If I don't make it clear, I don't think I will easily leave."
I felt guilty that I couldn't help her. I furrowed my brows and still thought hard.
I didn't even notice that Robbie was looking at me.
Maybe I was thinking for too long, Robbie said to me, "you don't have to force yourself if you don't
know. You frown for a long time. I'm afraid you are not a person have a good memory as you thinking
for such a long time."
I took a glance at him. Although he was right, a glimmer of inspiration suddenly came to my mind.
"I suddenly remember one thing, but I don't think it's possible."
"What's the matter?" Vann asked hastily.
"Just several days after I started my work here, Annie asked me as a person from the big city, if I was
used to the life here."
Xenia cut in. "Does this have anything to do with this case?"
Vann interrupted Xenia, "Please let Jasmine finish her words."
I continued, "But she said it was not easy for men to find a wife in the village now. She also asked me if
I heard of buying a wife. And by the way, she asked me if it was a crime."
With his eyes wide open, Vann glared at me, turned to look at Robbie, and then asked, "what else did
she say?"
I shook my head, "No. I said it should be called a crime, but she said nothing afterwards. Annie is very
nice, and I don't think it's necessary to do that. She's a woman and has a husband. It's impossible for
her to have anything to do with such a crime."
Vann didn't think this was a bad message. She continued to ask, "what's the name of Annie?"
"Annie Gu, now the crew of the film team lives in her house, which is well-off in this village, and during
this time, she and her husband take care of the crews' diet and living."
"Annie Gu..." Vann murmured.
I saw the look on Vann's face and could not help but feel a little flustered. I quickly asked him, "do you
really doubt Annie? No way. She had no reason to do it."
I've been with Annie for more than a month. She is outgoing, amiable and forthright. I don't believe she
would do such a thing. I trusted her, so what I talked with her before made me hard to remember that I
didn't provide the first-hand information to Vann.
Vann shook his hand. "I don't think it must have something to do with her. I'm just thinking maybe she is
an insider. Maybe she knows something so that she told you."
"Maybe as you said, if there were any foreign women bought here, the villagers may know."
Vann sighed, "But the villagers are very strict with the public relations in this village, so it's not
appropriate to ask people directly about this kind of thing. Besides, it's impossible to ask too many
details, or people will doubt it and it will be even harder to investigate."
"I'm not familiar with your investigation of cases. If there is anything that I can help, please tell me and
I'll do my best."
Vann nodded. "Thank you very much. I can handle it for the time being. I'll call you when I need you."
Robbie had been silent all this time but he then said to Vann, "You'd better not use her. Don't get her
involved in this case."
I looked at Robbie in confusion and asked him why?
Looking at my confused eyes, Robbie replied, "Everyone here knows that you are a member of the
casting group. If it makes a scene here or the villagers are displeased because of forcibly taking people
away from here, do you think the casting group can continue to film without any disturbance here?
Then it's not our business anymore. So you'd better stay out of it. "
Xenia also said in a hurry, "Yes, he is right, Jasmine. It would be a great loss if a villager kicks you and
the casting group out."
I knew what Robbie said was reasonable, but I didn't expect him to be so careful.
Vann nodded. "I see. I will investigate it in secret. If necessary, I will not come out to rescue, in case of
implicating the shooting here."
"That's good. I will keep an eye on it for you. But I have to leave here tomorrow." said Robbie.
"Are you leaving?" I subconsciously asked.
When I met Robbie's gaze, I was confused and lowered my head. I could not understand why I had
such a big reaction.
"Yes. If everything goes well, I'll be back the day after tomorrow." Robbie answered calmly
"Oh, you'll be back..."
Xenia looked at me and smiled, tilting her head. "What's wrong? You don't want him to leave? "
I looked up at Xenia and said, "of course not. Can't you stop talking nonsense?"
I took a look at Robbie and he happened to look at me. I felt very embarrassed. After all, I didn't have
that feeling for him.
As for my reaction just now, I was also confused.
Xenia giggled. She would be very happy to spend her time dragging me, Rogelio and Robbie together
endlessly.
Xenia rubbed her stomach and said, "Jasmine, I'm hungry. What shall we eat?"
"Starve to death! I don't want to see you have the strength to speak. This is better than you making me
angry here."
Xenia showed her teeth and swung my arm. "Okay, honey, Jasmine. I'm sorry. I'm really hungry. I won't
talk nonsense any more, okay?"
"I don't believe you." I glared at Xenia, but I was also amused by her coquetry.
I stood up and searched around the room, but I didn't find anything to eat except what I had this
morning.
I came out and saw Xenia's innocent eyes. I shrugged and said, "I have nothing but noodles and eggs.
We can't eat the same food as we had this morning."
Xenia pouted.
Vann said, "Just hold on for a little longer. Let's go back to the film crew and have dinner together."
Xenia wronged said, "It will take a long time. I'm starving to death. We didn't go to lunch. It's still a long
time before dinner."
I said with regret, "if we had leek, I could make dumplings for you."
