Brother Dao Took the Entertainment Industry by Storm, Fans Beg Me Not to Kill Anymore

Although Qian Wenhao was indeed a bit impulsive, openly challenging Elder Qian regardless of the occasion and questioning the associationʼs and officialsʼ strategies, he was a very pure person.

Because he didnʼt want Emperor Chenʼs authentic script to leave China in the future, he had a huge argument with Elder Qian at the art center to express his discontent.

And because he genuinely admired Emperor Chen as a historical figure and his calligraphy, upon learning that Xiao He was very skilled at imitating calligraphy, he asked Xiao He for a piece of calligraphy to keep as a souvenir.

But did he have any malicious intent? Probably not.

After all, he said whatever came to his mind. And judging by Elder Qianʼs current status, the other elders in the family were likely quite distinguished as well. Would he risk doing something that was bound to be discovered?

That was absolutely impossible.

Besides, although Elder Qian always looked helpless and disdainful whenever he mentioned Qian Wenhao, Xiao He could tell that the senior actually thought highly of Qian Wenhao and intended for him to inherit his legacy in the future.

So, after roughly understanding Qian Wenhao from Elder Qian, Xiao He finally felt relieved.

If the authentic script had to go back, so be it. Life was long. Yun Ziqi was still developing his career in China, and given the Yun Familyʼs recent activities, they were likely planning to return home too. There might be another chance to get the script back later. But it wouldnʼt be worth it if a promising young man was implicated, losing his innocence and his youth.

But he never imagined…

Xiao Heʼs expression turned complicated. He never imagined he would find Qian Wenhaoʼs name in the police investigation report.

Moreover, looking at the investigation report they provided, Xiao He couldnʼt even say that Qian Wenhao had no suspicion—

Because the report clearly stated that during the exhibition of the authentic script, Qian Wenhao had repeatedly violated regulations, entering the art center late at night to get close to the script.

So if he was involved, he would have had ample opportunity to tamper with the script during that time.

This would explain why the fire started inside the truck compartment and why the script was so severely damaged.

The report even included detailed surveillance screenshots.

They were from different dates but the same location. In the images, Qian Wenhao was leaning over the authentic script, carefully brushing something on it with a brush. Every so often, he would catch it with a tray and continue studying the strokes of the characters with a lamp in his hand.

His identity and background were special, so it was indeed possible for him to have access to the keys and codes. The art center staff werenʼt wary of him.

But why?

Wasnʼt looking at it through the glass during the day enough? He had to secretly open the glass at night and look at it up close?

Could he really be making a copy?

Xiao He was baffled by the surveillance footage. As a complete outsider, he didnʼt understand Qian Wenhaoʼs actions, and he never expected the kid to become one of the prime suspects in the destruction of Emperor Chenʼs authentic script.

Thinking back, it was indeed at the entrance of the art center that they had run into Qian Wenhao that night.

So, had he been sneaking into the art center at night to study the script ever since?

”I remember heʼs Elder Qianʼs kid, right?”

Liu Rulan, unaware that Xiao Heʼs mind was already in turmoil, continued muttering.

”Since you believe in him, heʼs probably innocent. But from the clues the police have found so far, it looks very bad for him.”

The main issue was that after being taken in for questioning, Qian Wenhaoʼs mental state was terrible. He refused to cooperate with the investigation and consistently failed to provide a clear reason for entering the art center late at night. This, in turn, made the suspicion on him grow heavier.

The matter had reached a stalemate.
