Time 11:31 on the First Street of Outong Film City

"That woman over there is the one we're looking for"

"Patricia Lal, the female star who sweared at our dead Sicily Eilson"

The target chosen by Lei Shi and An Mixiu is the tainted witness who everyone thinks is heavily protected by the Ministry of Justice, and now the glamorous actress, Patricia Lal.Among all the direct contacts related to the case, Patricia Lal is the easiest target to be found and locked. The main reason is that she is a public figure and a successful woman. Naturally, there are quite a few fans of the actor, want to find her?Just ask any avid fan and they'll probably even tell you what she had for lunch.The power of brainless fans and fanatics is huge, and this opportunity just happened to give Kim the perfect opportunity to join a few Patricia Lal fans, pretending to be one because she was in a romance movie Fans who are fascinated by the role they play, casually follow the routine from the group owner to her itinerary for the next few days and the location of fan meetings, press conferences and reality show events, which can be described as quick and accurate information collect.

Judging from the information given by those fans, Patricia Lal will organize a fan meeting at a Starbucks on First Avenue in Bump City Film City at [-]:[-] noon today.The two drove to the movie city half an hour earlier, and as expected, they saw the actress from across the street preparing for her fan meeting in Starbucks and talking to nearby staff.Of course, the two of them were not the only ones who arrived early. Countless fanatical fans were waiting outside Starbucks with Patricia's big advertising board, light sticks and autographed books. Those young men and women had looks of anticipation on their faces. The face is full of joy, obsessively looking at Patricia inside, and if the female star sees the fans outside the door reaching out to say hello, the result will be the screams and screams of the waiting fans plus Kneel down and play CALL.The star effect is really a wonderful thing. Of course, it can also be understood as the effect of role models.

"Are these guys out of their minds?"

"It's the same for star chasers..."

Leishi took out a cigarette, and looked at the fan group shouting at the door of Starbucks with disgust on his face. Those fans kept shouting 'Love you, Patty! ''I love you the most in my life! ’ These declarations seem crazy to the outsider.An Mixiu was not surprised, but he just sighed helplessly.

"You said these people, what would happen if they knew the disgraceful history of the woman inside?"

"Who knows... Some people may leave immediately, and some may continue to defend her. I remember a while ago, didn't we accept a case? A female college student killed her roommate, and she Because the star they like is the opposite family, the two quarreled and quarreled, and in the end she stabbed the other person to death with a fruit knife because she couldn't quarrel."

"Oh, that solved the case."

Lei Shi sneered and lit a cigarette.Lei Shi certainly remembered that case, and he still remembered the first sentence they said after they brought the murdered female college student into the interrogation room. 'Uncle policeman, do you also think XXX is better than XXX? '

later?Later, Jin called the psychiatric hospital to take the girl away. The detectives from their serious crime team went to the girl's house together and saw posters of a certain male star everywhere. Obsession gave Sturdy a fright.Since then, Leishi has issued a death order in his team, not allowing his team members to chase any celebrities, and those who violate the regulations will do the work of recording illegal parking.He also asked Camille about this kind of thing and asked him to analyze it, and Camille just replied lightly after hearing it.

"Projection and herding, bro."

"what?"

Camille explained that the projection effect refers to an effect in which it is easy to attribute the characteristics of oneself to others.When cognition and forming impressions of others, the phenomenon of thinking that others have similar characteristics to oneself, projecting one's own feelings, will, and characteristics onto others and imposing them is a psychological disorder in cognitive behavior.For example, evil people will think that they are surrounded by evil people, and good people will also think that they are surrounded by good people.Herd effect is also known as herd effect, group psychology. In the animal world, a flock of sheep is a very scattered organization. They usually rush left and right blindly when they are together, but once one head sheep moves, the other sheep will also move. Will rush in without thinking.And a flock of sheep moving in this way will only follow the leader sheep, and will continue to follow him, even if there is a wolf's den or a cliff ahead, they will never turn back.This is true for sheep, and it is also true for people. The consequences can easily induce blind obedience.

Chasing stars is the most typical example of the combination of these two effects.For fanatical fans, a star is like a leader. As long as he does something, they will obey him. No matter what the star does, they will continue to support him unconditionally, and another effect reflected by him is, It's the projection effect.Why would someone fall in love with, or even fall in love with, that star?Most worshipers project some kind of dream, desire, and shortcoming of themselves onto their idol because they cannot achieve what they want to do, but their idol does.Because idols achieve what they cannot achieve, fanatical admirers become obsessed with it, unable to extricate themselves.There are thousands of things they are obsessed with, such as the idol's status, wealth, appearance, specialty, skill, figure, success and even experience.may be the key to their worship.Rational fans are lucky to say that they will choose rational admiration in terms of admiration and admiration, and take the success of those stars as their goal in life, so as to work harder.And for the dumbass...

It's really a headache.

"I wanted to go inside and ask the actress, but judging by the posture, if we find out that we are the police, the first thing they will do is to drive us away."

"The woman was followed by three tall men in suits and sunglasses, probably bodyguards, and a man wearing glasses, probably a manager."

"The first step we stepped into that Starbucks, others may have contacted the Ministry of Justice and the legal team to deal with us. In short, today is not suitable to startle the snake, Leishi, let's go."

"Well, I'll leave after smoking this cigarette."

An Mixiu has already sat back in the driver's seat, while Lei Shi continues to look at the noisy door of Starbucks in the distance. I really don't know, the parents of this group saw their children chasing a follower What do they think when they have no blood relationship?What Camille said at that time rang in his ears again.Most of the star chasers are between the ages of 12 and 25, which is the adolescent period. During this period, teenagers and girls are in a state of adolescence and rebellion. After many children have disputes with their parents and elders, they will instinctively go Looking for psychological comfort, and the existence of celebrities happens to provide what they need. The interaction between celebrities and fans is just an act of increasing popularity in the eyes of the stars themselves, but for the fans themselves, especially those who are in a serious rebellious period Generally speaking, the existence of a star is like a psychological mentor in disguise, a role model that is different from his parents, who he says he admires, and hopes to become, and this also brings a lot of imitation psychology and substitution psychology.The inspirational effect of the role model brought by proper star chasing is very good, but once you are addicted to it and develop into a star who becomes a completely inseparable role in your life, even more important than your parents, then the consequences will be very scary.And now, there is such a group of people in front of me, a group of teenagers who come to chase stars.

When you were young, did you chase stars?

Recalling his junior high school career, Lei Shi shook his head. At that time, he was not afraid of anything, and he didn't pay attention to anyone, let alone celebrities. Except for some computer games, he basically didn't watch computer TV series.I don’t know if that guy An Mixiu is a star chaser, so let’s ask him someday... But after all, An Mixiu and Lei Shi have already passed the age of star chasing, and they can’t even name the actors in a movie or TV show. Even so, there are many cases that happened because of star chasing. An Mixiu received a case in his first year as a police detective. A girl wanted to commit suicide on the top of the school building, and the reason I just wanted a very popular little fresh meat actor to come and see her. The case tossed An Mixiu for four hours, but the girl just didn’t listen, and in the end it was the actor who really came to bring the female student. Go down to the top.Lei Shi didn't have much affection for celebrities. When he was a policeman, a TV series was very popular, but the main content was touting how powerful a female detective was. The image is the kind of existence that eats, drinks, prostitutes, gambles and smokes all kinds of drugs, so that the life of their police station is quite difficult for a long, long time, and even when they go out to police, they will be scolded by passers-by next to them. .

He stomped out the cigarette and walked to the door of the passenger seat. Just about to open the door, he looked around subconsciously, and also took a look at the scenery of the street.Because it is a movie city, most of the shops on the street are photography studios and shops selling celebrity photo albums. There are very few restaurants and drink shops. The same goes for the cars on the street, most of which are slow and heavy. Tin wagons with photographic equipment and some luxurious private cars.wait a minute...that's...

"Ok?"

"what happened?"

An Mixiu, who was already on fire in the car, saw that Lei Shi's hand that opened half of the car door suddenly stopped, and his expression seemed to have seen something, then the head of the pirate group sneered, closed the car door and walked towards the street. Walking across, An Mixiu also pulled out the car key when he saw this, and followed.Originally, An Mixiu thought that Leishi would go straight to the Starbucks across the street, which is the coffee shop where Patricia is currently having a fan meeting, but he didn't.Lei Shi walked to the other side of the street, where a metal car marked with a telecommunications company was parked. He walked to the car, patted the door of that car hard, and roared.

"I can smell your stink from across the street, and I've also experienced stalking, but you'd better consider taking a shift to take a shower."

"Leishi what are you doing..."

"Your car is a good camouflage for stalking Patricia Lal, but it's a pity. The parking ticket on the windshield has turned yellow, and there are no signal towers of the telecommunications company in the vicinity, so this car It is a very unthinkable thing for a car to appear here in the eyes of a knowledgeable person. In addition, according to the introduction of the fan group, this Starbucks is the coffee shop that Patricia Lal most often goes to. The reason is that she and The owner of that store is an old friend. And I guess you guys know this too, so you came to follow. But you guys are stupid, such a conspicuous telecom company car keeps parked next to a big celebrity coffee place, And the fact that her bodyguard didn't come knock on your glass probably means idiots on both sides. Now listen, I don't mind walking into that coffee shop right now and telling them there's a bunch of paparazzi in here Intimate photos of the female star are being taken in the car, and believe me you will be eaten alive by angry fans before Miss Lal's bodyguards show up. So listen up, if you don't want me to do this, This is my condition. Let your person in charge meet me at the Mary & Anne bar in the southern district of Outong City at noon tomorrow. At 12 o'clock sharp, I will order a glass of beer with the knight next to me in the sofa area. Do you understand? "

Tens of seconds later, it seemed that the people inside were discussing this matter, or maybe they were making a report with the leader inside. No matter what, Lei Shi finally got the satisfactory answer he wanted.

dong dong dong.

There was a sound of knocking on the iron plate inside, signaling agreement.

"great."

Seeing An Mixiu's still bewildered expression, Lei Shi just smiled, and then pulled An Mixiu back to the car.

"The NSA or the Justice Department?"

"It doesn't matter, what matters is that they are also worried about that actress."

The appearance of the surveillance vehicle has indeed changed a lot of things. If the surveillance vehicle belongs to the Ministry of Justice, it means that Patricia has recently done something to attract the attention of the Ministry of Justice, making them choose not to contact her directly but to secretly monitor her. , waiting for an opportunity to act.If the car belonged to the National Security Agency, it meant that their investigation of Patricia was about the same pace as the police station, but more or less probably because of the intelligence network of the National Security Agency, they had a little more information.In any case, this is not a loss for the police department.

"I don't know how the others are progressing?"

"Camille sent me a message, saying that it was our sixth deceased. The school that Emily Wacker taught was very problematic, and the Bump City Art Museum that Jin and Gray went to also seemed to find something abnormal."

"Well, let's gather it up when the time comes. Let's go to dinner first. It's almost here."

It was almost time to finish all these things, just when the two of them wanted to find a place to finish their lunch, An Mixiu's cell phone rang.

"Hey? Dad? Ah ... I'm driving. What?! Why don't you tell me! My mother said?! God ... Ah ... ah? ... Okay, okay. ..Which place? Don't worry, I know the way. What time? Seven o'clock in the evening? Then you...ah, you've already checked in at the hotel?! Why are you calling at this time?...Okay, Okay, I get it. I hung up first, I'm still driving."

An Mixiu hung up the phone helplessly, and glanced at Leishi who was playing with his mobile phone in the passenger seat.

"What's wrong? Your parents are finally back?"

"yes..."

An Mixiu's parents are both researchers of the Weather Research Institute, one is the deputy director and the other is the director of the office.This kind of work made his parents go out every three days, and the number of times they could return to Outong City to celebrate the New Year with him was very few. Other parents had children working, and he enjoyed family happiness at home, while An Mixiu's father Mom is different. Even if the two elders are approaching retirement age, they can't take time off. They will go to Geneva and Paris every three days, and they will not go back to Ou-Tao City after attending air purification seminars and global energy conservation seminars.And now he suddenly called An Mixiu to tell them that they had returned, which really caught him off guard. Now he had a huge case in hand, and his parents asked him to go to eat, which made An Mixiu very broken.Lei Shi looked at An Mixiu's frustrated expression, patted him on the shoulder, and comforted him.

"It's okay, you can go and eat. Anyway, we are all busy with our own clues now, and we will discuss it together when it is time to summarize."

"If it's the next person, I'm not nervous at all."

"what?"

"My mom said...she wants to see you."

There was a sudden silence in the car, Lei Shi's smile froze on his face, he understood why An Mixiu was so broken, because now the two of them were going to meet their parents under such a sudden attack.

"No! Didn't I meet your parents? Twice!"

"You have the nerve to tell me! Once was at my aunt's funeral! Once was at my brother-in-law's wedding! Both times we met from a distance and then we left!"

This kind of thing happened so quickly and I was completely unprepared... An Mixiu pulled over the car and told Leishi the message from his mother. The time is [-] o'clock tonight, and the address is a ShoppingMall in the city center A Thai restaurant on the first floor, under the text message there is a PS note of 'good boy, remember to bring that one, mom wants to see'.

"Is it too late for me to tell your mom that I hate Thai food?"

"That's too late..."

"Depend on!"

After locking the car, he walked into the nearby small restaurant with a look of lovelessness on his face.

"Lei Shi, why don't you just treat it as an ordinary meal together?"

"Do you believe this, An Mixiu?"

"..."

It seems that tonight, this meal is going to be very special.
