envy. She's obviously happy that ZHOU YOU YOU have such a
good life. She turned to DI LIAN.
FENG CHAN (CONT’D)

We're going to work hard to buy a
house like this.

DI LIAN smiles and agrees. ZHOU YOU YOU look at the man too.

I haven't seen you for a long time.
I didn't recognize you just now.
The marks on your clothes... Did I
do it? I'm sorry! I just got my
driver's license.
LUO QUE
(looked at her clothes)
Emm...it’s fine...

It's a little awkward to meet two people who haven't seen

each other for a long time, and LUO QUE who has just been
splashed with mud is obviously more awkward, and what is more
embarrassing than being met by his former friends. LUO QUE
gets into the car and sees the little girl sitting inside.

These are my best friends from
school days, and whether you like
them or not, you should at least
finish lunch here.

DI LIAN

think that's how relationships are
defined.

FENG CHAN (CONT’D)

(Chopping vegetables)
I don't know why I feel this way,
but you've all changed a lot.

ZHOU YOU YOU

(Put the baking tray in
the microwave)
Yeah, we've all changed, but you
haven't. You tell me everything,
just like you used to.

FENG CHAN

Yeah, people have changed. You're
obviously older, sorry, no offense,
just not as... The sharp. To be
honest, I liked you the way you
were, a lot like me.

ZHOU YOU YOU

so that we cannot see her
eyes)
How can that change? The last time
you saw me is several years ago, I
remember when YAN YAN was still
alive.

BCU

FENG CHAN
(Facing ZHOU YOU YOU, very
close)
Don't think about it. After all
that time, you're fine the way you

ZHOU YOU YOU nodded hesitantly, ostensibly the leader of the

group, but in reality, she was the least mature, and now her
eyes showed vulnerability, But she soon pulled herself
together.

FENG CHAN sighed and continued.

FENG CHAN
Well, how can I describe it? XIAO

as before. You know, I never liked
her. Never mind, it doesn't matter.
ZHOU YOU YOU
But I don't know why, her cousin
keeps giving me this weird feeling.
It's...weird!
FENG CHAN
Two people who are not alike will
not get into the same family.
ZHOU YOU YOU
There is no need to say so. XIAO
XIN YUE is just a little
competitive, after all, his parents
are so excellent.
Both of them were silent for a moment.
ZHOU YOU YOU (CONT’D)
The stuff in the pan is burning!

FENG CHAN

trusted you with your cooking
skill.

Everyone around started heckling.

LUO QUE quickly ran up the stairs and down again, holding a
picture in her hand.
LUO QUE (CONT’D)
(dragged out the painting)
This is my painting for the
exhibition this year, but I failed
to go in the end, so I gave it to
you. When I become a great painter,
it will definitely increase in
value.

ZHOU YOU YOU accepted the painting pleasantly surprised with

a vague look in her eyes. After a while, as if she had made
some decision, she took the painting from LUO QUE and hung it

QUE was tense against the wall, and XIAO XIN YUE was
expressionless
LUO QUE
I don't know what's so good about
the dark lights. It's so scary. You
were not scared at all. I remember
when you went to the haunted house
with YAN YAN, you kept screaming
and then told us you were faking...

XIAO XIN YUE didn't seem to want to answer. She pretended not
to hear. But LUO QUE continued as if she didn't see it
LUO QUE (CONT’D)
Well, at that time, you and YAN YAN
were so good together but broke up
at last. And, we didn't expect YAN
YAN to end up with a Fame Monster
like YOU YOU.

XIAO XIN YUE's face became worse and worse, at last, she
interrupted LUO QUE's words.
 25.

XIAO XIN YUE

(frown)
YAN YAN has gone for such a long
time. Just stop talking about that
old millet PLEASE!
LUO QUE was also aware of the loss and closed her mouth in
time. By this time they had reached the second floor.
LUO QUE
I think this is YOU YOU’s master
bedroom.
XIAO XIN YUE nodded after a moment's silence. Together they
knocked on the door.
FADE OUT.

INT. A CLOCK
The pendulum of a grandfather clock swayed, and the second
hand moved three squares, eight o 'clock sharp. The clock
struck eight times. When the eighth stroke was struck, all
the lights went out.
There was a thud outside, the sound of something heavy
falling.
CUT TO:

INT. AT THE KITCHEN TABLE - DAY

Because it is still the morning and the French Windows,
people stay there are very calm and did not realize what
happened on the second floor.
XIAO XIN YUE (O.S.)
Ahhh!(scream)
LUO QUE (O.S.)
Help!!! I can see nothing here
upstairs!!!
XIAO MIAN was the first to rush out from the first floor,
followed by DI LIAN and FENG CHAN.

INT. THE SECOND FLOOR - DAY

FENG CHAN placates LUO QUE and XIAO XIN YUE. XIAO MIAN looks
on and DI LIAN stands by.
FENG CHAN
(hug LUO QUE)
I think it's just a power outage.
It's fine. It’s fine.
Gathering their emotions, the five opened ZHOU YOU YOU's
room, which was empty.
PAN TO THE LEFT
Unlike the darkness of the corridor, the whole room was still
bright due to the presence of the east window, but the room
was turned upside down.
The quilt was thrown on the floor, the table was covered with
scraps of paper and various documents, and the safe box in
one corner of the room was opened, and the contents of the
safe box disappeared.
XIAO MIAN
(cried)
She was killed, was she? Threatened
by a terrorist group, took
something important away.
XIAO XIN YUE
(scared)
Don't say such bad things. Maybe
she's just in a bad mood. Let's go
look.
Apparently, XIAO XIN YUE's words didn't even convince her.
CUT TO:

INT. CORRIDOR TO GROUND FLOOR - DAY

Everyone was scared. They huddled together and went down the
stairs in fear. They looked around the first floor, but no
one was there.
XIAO XIN YUE
(relax)
Probably out of the house, for
nothing to worry about.
Everyone's relieved they didn't find the body. Suddenly, LUO
QUE let out a scream.
 27.

LUO QUE
(shout)
She... She... She's outside!
Hearing this, everyone started into a cold sweat. Through the
glass door, they saw ZHOU YOU YOU's body lying in the pool.

Everyone looked grave.

XIAO MIAN

crying and yelling)
The murderer is among us. We're all
going to die.
XIAO XIN YUE

trying to stay calm)
Keep your mouth shut
(clam down and take a deep
breath)
We will leave tomorrow morning, and
nobody's gonna get hurt, okay?
 28.

XIAO MIAN
(Jerk her head up)
Why not leave now? I'm calling the
police!
She picked up her mobile phone and was about to make a call
when LUO QUE and XIAO XIN YUE rushed up and tried to snatch
it away.
They grabbed the phone and threw it out.
XIAO MIAN (CONT’D)
(Struggling, but pinned to
a chair)
Why! Why! I don't want to die yet!
(sneer)
I get it! You're all in this
together! That LUO QUE looks like a
bad guy! Dirty clothes! And you
too!

She suddenly turns to XIAO XIN YUE.

XIAO MIAN (CONT’D)

And you're not even my sister!

Everyone froze.

XIAO XIN YUE

It is hard to tell, let me tell you
guys this.

Then, she starts to talk

DISSOLVE TO:

INT. A HOSPITAL - DAY

LS

XIAO XIN YUE who looks younger sat on the ground, looking at
the terminally ill note in her hand and crying.

XIAO XIN YUE (V.O.)

My mom died the year we graduated.
I kill her. I had never known she
had a bad heart before, but that
day was the first and last time I
knew.
 29.

XIAO XIN YUE (V.O.)

She had a heart attack because of
you! FENG CHAN! You know that. Why
didn't you keep it a secret?!
There was a paper lying next to the girl outside the
operating room, It says," Second Place," "90".
A hospital bed covered with a white cloth was wheeled up.
MS
DOCTOR
We did our best.
The girl sitting on the ground was dazed for a moment and
then fainted. The doctor pulled the girl into the room, the
liquid in the bottle dripping.
XIAO XIN YUE (V.O.)
I was 16 that year, and my mom pass
away, I was left alone, with my
father. As you all know, my father
was a total nutcase, a research
nutcase, and once he ran out of
money, he couldn't do his research
anymore, so he went off with a rich
woman and left me alone.
A tall man unfeeling pulling a suitcase and a woman dressed
in riches and honour left the house, the girl behind shouted
father, but he still left.
XIAO XIN YUE (V.O.)
Then a man appear, and he saved me,
but also, he destroyed me.
ELS
A man took the girl's hand and walked away.
XIAO XIN YUE (V.O.)
He's got me doing a lot of things,
using my identity as a little girl
to help him settle his accounts, to
get stolen goods out of the house,
yeah, he's a thief, technically, a
big one.

FENG CHAN
So you're here to steal something?
You two?
XIAO XIN YUE smiled bleakly.
XIAO XIN YUE
(shake her head)
Will you believe me if I say no?
FENG CHAN's face grimaced.
XIAO XIN YUE (CONT’D)
(sarcasm)
You shouldn't believe it either,
but anyway, I'm here to see how
you're doing. But the reason he
sent me here is because of the
knife, that Mongolian sword.

DI LIAN gasped.

DI LIAN
That knife must be worth tens of
millions.

XIAO XIN YUE

(nodded)
He told me that too.

FENG CHAN came over, sighed, and hugged XIAO XIN YUE

FENG CHAN
When we get out of here, you can
quit. We can help you.

FENG CHAN turn to XIAO MIAN.

MS
FENG CHAN (CONT’D)
And you, too young to go astray...

XIAO MIAN
We can call the police. We can call
the police now! When I get out of
here, I'm not gonna do this again.

FENG CHAN

Look at this.

BCU
"Don't leave for three days, or you'll all die."
There was a collective gasp.
LUO QUE

This handwriting...is pretty
familiar to me, but I can’t
remember it...
The atmosphere was heavy.
FENG CHAN
There is no evidence to prove who
did it, so still, needs to be
unity.
PAN TO THE LEFT
LUO QUE
I have a conscience.
(One step forward)
How about you? How can you say that
with such dignity? She was so good
to you that you could betray her?
LUO QUE took out a rubber band and slammed it on the table.
LUO QUE (CONT’D)
I don't know why you did it but the
proof is here.

DI LIAN
This rubber band belonged to FENG
CHAN, yes, but she gave it to me
yesterday afternoon while you were
playing. I had it on my wrist, but
it got too tight, so I took it off
and put it on the table.
Everyone was confused now.

DI LIAN (CONT’D)
But when I looked at it in the
evening, it disappeared.

LUO QUE
(stand up)
The evidence?
 32.

HIGH ANGLE SHOT

DI LIAN
(stand up and walk to LUO
QUE)
But how about you, Everything you
said to my girlfriend was just
speculation, but what about the
will?
DI LIAN point at the table
BCU
DI LIAN (CONT’D)
(take the will)
According to what my girlfriend
told me, the relationship between
YOU and ZHOU YOU YOU was very tense
before. Because of ZHOU YOU, YOU
missed the selection of the Academy
of Fine Arts, which was your only
chance to make a breakthrough. Look
what she wrote in her will.
(start to read words on
the will)
I know I screwed you up and ruined
your future, so just give me a
chance to make it right. I don't
have children, and I never will,
and all my inheritance will go to
Ms. LUO QUE.

Even if they had already read the will, hearing it again

brought a gasp.

DI LIAN (CONT’D)
So anyway, she's dead, and you're
the beneficiary.

LUO QUE
I don’t need this money!

DI LIAN
That's not sincere. Unfortunately,
I accidentally saw your phone
yesterday, and now your father owes
someone millions. And he was
powerful enough to send back all
your work for the exhibition. ZHOU
YOU YOU, with a grudge, gave this
painting to the beginning of your
nightmare, am I right?
 33.

DI LIAN smile.
CU
DI LIAN (CONT’D)
I don't mean to be unkind, but you
should be careful about your
behavior.
(back to his sat)

LUO QUE's face was pale.

LUO QUE
No, but I don’t go there at all!

But everyone was already looking at her with suspicion.

XIAO MIAN
(light)
I see. I see.
(turn to LUO QUE)
So it was you when I went to the
bathroom yesterday!

LUO QUE
What?

XIAO MIAN
I saw someone go into the warehouse
last night, and your painting was
there, which explains it all.

LUO QUE
No but I don’t go there at all!

The scene was quiet.

FENG CHAN
Now we can say who the killer is,
we all have a chance, we all stay
here, we don't move, and nothing
happens, right?

After three days, we will leave!

This was said, and no one spoke again until evening.

It's not a problem to sit like this
all the time. Let's all go to the
master bedroom, the girls can bunk

Everyone acquiesced to this decision, so they all went into

human nature. Someone must be
making trouble out of it!

LIU YI was struggling at first, but gradually sinking.

Because of the struggle, she drifted farther and farther,

couldn't really be a ghost.
DUAN MIAO

There are no ghosts, but why do you
think so?

At seven o 'clock that morning,
XIAO XIN YUE and LUO QUE heard ZHOU
YOU YOU, which proved that she was
not dead at that time. Then they
both went back to their rooms
respectively. At 7:30, everyone was
in the living room except ZHOU YOU
YOU. According to the scene, she
fell from the balcony of ZHOU YOU
YOU's room. I don't know why she
was still wearing a bathing suit.
Moreover, she did drown, but all of
them were together at the time of
the murder.

A man dressed in black hung ZHOU YOU YOU's body from an
exhaust fan.
DUAN MIAO (V.O.)
If MY guess is correct, there
should be two exhaust fans on the
balcony of ZHOU YOU YOU. There
should be a fishing line between
the two exhaust fans. The deceased
was hung in the air and then the
fishing line was used to pass
through her body.
CHEN SI ZHE
So what evidence do we have now?

FENG CHAN, who has a good family
and is now the director of an
Internet company, went to ZHOU YOU
YOU's home this weekend at ZHOU YOU
YOU's invitation. We found the
phone call, and what she said is
true. However, it is worth
mentioning that she went there with
her boyfriend, DI LIAN. DI LIAN had
sent her to leave, but She was left
by ZHOU YOU YOU, so she is also one
of the suspects.
Photos of FENG CHAN and DI LIAN were placed next to each
other.

It doesn't matter what you're
looking for, it matters that you're

enough because each of the four
suspects feels more innocent than
the last.

A man's face is not his heart.
Both men are tired, so they're not talking, and everyone
knows that this is a very difficult situation, that without
evidence, all four suspects will be released within 24 hours,

Three men knocked on the door. CHEN SI ZHE wondered, who
could it be? As an insider, he knew the killer must be one of
the four if it wasn't a ghost, even though none of them
looked like one.
The door opened.
It was a fat old man in a white vest.

Why? I love you, I will not hurt
you.
FENG CHAN
So why do you kill them!
DI LIAN
ZHOU YOU YOU kill my sister,
because of that, my parent all gone
in mad, my mom jump down from a
building and my father start to
drunk.
FENG CHAN
No! We don’t mean that, we don’t
know she will die!
DI LIAN
I know, it was not your fault.
DI LIAN (CONT’D)
However, fate brought us together,
and I fell in love with you, and I
really do, but your friend killed
my sister, and I couldn't ignore
it.

FENG CHAN
You really are the devil.
 49.

DI LIAN said nothing and pulled FENG CHAN to his feet on the
balcony.
ELS
Police sirens could be heard faintly outside the balcony.
DI LIAN
Do you hear that? my time is
limited?
The voice of police sirens gets closer and closer.
FENG CHAN
I don’t know what to do...listen, I
love you, but same as you to YOU
YOU, you kill my best friend and
other Innocent lives. I will never
stay together with a murderer!
DI LIAN’s face is full of disappointment.
CUT TO:

INT. FENG CHAN’S HOUSE (BALCONY) - NIGHT

At this time night has fallen, and on the balcony, he dimly
saw a man and a woman figure. Excited, CHEN SI ZHE went up to
the third floor and opened the door, which had been ajar.
FENG CHAN's white dress was like a fairy in the sky.
He did not notice that FENG CHAN was so good-looking, but at
this time she was tightly embraced by DI LIAN.
They all sat on the railing of the balcony, one more step
away from falling off, not even daring to stand up.
Although it was only the balcony of the third floor, it was
still chilling in the cold night.
CU
CHEN SI ZHE
FENG CHAN! Leave him!
DI LIAN
Don’t come closer! Or she will be
in danger!
CHEN SI ZHE stops there.
 50.

FENG CHAN
I love him, you know?
CHEN SI ZHE
Do YOU remember ZHOU YOU YOU? She's
your best friend.
FENG CHAN paused for a second.
MS
CHEN SI ZHE (CONT’D)
The devil beside you killed her!
And the innocent girl! She's only
sixteen!
DI LIAN
ZHOU YOU YOU deserve it! She killed
my sister when she was 16 too! As
for the girl, I'm sorry.

CHEN SI ZHE
I know you're smart. You'll do the
right thing. Back to us, you just
need to step to me.

DI LIAN
No! You said you'd stay with me
forever!

FENG CHAN hesitating, she finally approached CHEN SI ZHE and

tried to climb over back the railing.

Just as she was about to roll back, she slipped, lost her
balance, and fell down the balcony.

CHEN SI ZHE immediately rushed to her regardless of his own

health, but it was too late.

Luckily, just as she was about to fall, a hand grasped her

wrist. It was DI LIAN who caught her. Her body was now
suspended in midair.

CHEN SI ZHE
Hang on!

DI LIAN
You will be fine!

Finally, FENG CHAN was slowly pulled up.

CHEN SI ZHE took her by the shoulders tightly and pulled her
to his side.
 51.

But just as FENG CHAN was being pulled up, an unexpected

accident happened. DI LIAN pulled so hard that his feet
slipped and he fell.
DI LIAN reacted very quickly, holding on to the downspout
under the eaves with one hand, but his whole body was
suspended in mid-air.
FENG CHAN immediately broke away from CHEN SI ZHE and rushed
to the balcony.
FENG CHAN
(rush)
DI LIAN, you can't go down there!
DI LIAN's expression is remarkably calm at the moment of life
and death.
CU
The face that had captivated countless girls finally showed a
lovely dimple.
BCU
His eyes were breathtaking and he was gazing affectionately
at FENG CHAN.
FENG CHAN could not get hold of his hand.
CHEN SI ZHE tried to help but to no avail.
The downspouts beneath the eaves had fallen into disrepair,
could not bear the weight of a man, and began to twist and
crack.
DI LIAN looked FENG CHAN in the eye and shook his head slowly
as if he had given up everything.
BCU
FENG CHAN's tears slowly trickled down to DI LIAN's face.
FENG CHAN (CONT’D)
I'll go with you! We will go abroad
together, to a place where no one
knows us, hold on, come with me!

DI LIAN
No, please live in a world without
me. I'm sorry.

The downspout finally broke.

 52.

DI LIAN stretched out and fell like an eagle.

DI LIAN (CONT’D)
I love you.

No one heard this, but both FENG CHAN and CHEN SI ZHE knew
that he must have said it.

INT. FENG CHAN’S HOUSE

FENG CHAN sitting on her chair, reading the letter left by DI
LIAN.
DISSOLVE TO:

INT. DI LIAN’S HOUSE

DI LIAN is writing a piece of letter.
DI LIAN (V.O.)
Dear FENG CHAN, if you can read
this letter, it means THAT I am no
longer alive at this time,
otherwise I will have the
opportunity to tell you personally.
My sister and I have been very
close since we were kids, maybe
because of the family situation,
she never had those things that you
and your friend have, so she took
your friend’s things away, I was
actually there that day, and I
watched as my sister was pushed
into the water, swept away,
struggling. I'm also a coward. I
didn't save her, and I regret it to
this day. I just see that the
police are going to come to my
house, so I had to go now, And
believe it or not, I really love
you, and I don't know if I finally
got around to telling you.
