Xiao He had known these people for a long time, and now they worked together seamlessly without any barriers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Similar in tone to the first installment of The Thieves, the second part also tells the story of the nation and the suffering of the people. However, compared to the ordinary people in the first part, the second part is filled with more important figures and events, and the background is more magnificent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This storyline focuses on the hardships and suffering of the border regions during wartime. At this time, there were barbarian threats from the outside and treacherous officials in power within the country. The generals and soldiers who were struggling to maintain the border were not receiving their winter pay and supplies. With winter fast approaching, the leading general had no choice but to submit another memorial to the emperor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But to everyone's surprise, this letter seeking help became evidence of treason, and the various parties hiding in the shadows once again launched a silent battle...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The powerful figures fought tooth and nail for their own interests, showing no regard for the soldiers and civilians on the border, nor did they care about the country's territory; in their eyes, everything was just a business transaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Rushuai, Shen Jue, and others who were caught up in the chaos were just minor characters in this turbulent world. They had to struggle to survive, but in the end, they unexpectedly turned the tide of the game between the big shots with the evidence they had gathered...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like when they left Jiangnan in the first part, no one saw them off or tried to stop them. The two of them simply rode their horses and quietly left the mottled border city walls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one knows how much they contributed to the stability of the border region, or how many perilous moments they endured, teetering on the brink of life and death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, it is clear that they do not care about this empty reputation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, considering they were living in the twilight of a dynasty, it was quite remarkable that they could live such a low-key life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Jiang Rushuai—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before they had gone far, someone on the city wall called out Jiang Rushuai's name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Rushuai looked up and immediately saw the woman standing on the city wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman had regained her elegant and luxurious attire, and the hairpins in her hair shone brightly. Although she was still wearing a veil, her beauty was still undeniable. She simply stood there, bringing a bright touch to the dilapidated city wall that had been eroded by wind and sand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was completely different from the simple and unpretentious landlady who used to be at the inn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she is still herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Rushuai tugged at the reins, a nonchalant smile on his face: \"What? The landlady has decided to come back with us?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman's gaze lingered on Shen Jue beside Jiang Rushuai for a moment, and there was indeed some reluctance in her eyes, but she still shook her head and tossed a copper coin to Jiang Rushuai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The copper coin flew through the air and was finally caught precisely by Jiang Rushuai below the city wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Rushuai was stunned for a moment as he looked at the copper coin lying quietly in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I heard that this is the rule for you, Jiang Rushuai, as a thief catcher.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is my payment.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Rushuai's expression was complicated. He carefully stroked the coin in his hand for a moment, then chuckled softly. He turned to look at the silent Shen Jue, and finally raised his hand, accurately sending the copper coin back into the woman's hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I've already received it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Rushuai gripped the reins, turned the horse around again, his posture elegant yet nonchalant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If the landlady wants to repay me, she should treat me to a drink when she comes back to the Northwest—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As his nonchalant voice rang out, the sound of two horses' hooves gradually faded into the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn't hear him say goodbye until he was far away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that's just the kind of person Shen Jue is.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— Not saying goodbye means that we can meet again at any time in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman lowered her eyes, looking at the copper coin in her hand, her beautiful eyes filled with undisguised sadness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So he knew all along...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"hehe.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman clutched the copper coin in her hand, turned away in a flustered manner, but no one knew how much melancholy and self-mockery was hidden in that soft laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On this day, Xiao He and Qu Qiuyan finished filming at the same time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qu Qiuyan, wearing a coat, accepted the flowers from the staff with a smile, but her face showed a rare hint of sadness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Xiao He rode his horse, gazing once more at the towering city walls in the distance and the surrounding rolling sand dunes, he inexplicably began to feel melancholy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Time flies so fast.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It feels like my time on this film set flew by.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha, Brother Xiao, your expression makes it seem like you haven't had enough of acting yet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pu Rong dismounted and teased Xiao He while also giving Lin Yipeng a shout-out: \"Director Lin, you've seen it, Xiao He can't wait to film the third installment.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yipeng was still checking the footage when she heard Pu Rong's words and said irritably, \"This second part isn't even finished filming yet, why don't you guys just jump straight to the top?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There really is a third installment?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao He understood the subtext in his words and immediately asked curiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When filming the first movie, he was able to guess that there might be a second movie in \"The Thief Catcher\" because the landlady never showed her face from beginning to end, which was obviously to foreshadow something in the story.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that the second part is nearing its end, all the foreshadowing surrounding the landlady has been resolved, and Xiao He really has no idea what Lin Yipeng will film next.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yipeng glanced at Xiao He sideways but didn't say anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He clearly realized that Xiao He was trying to trick him into revealing information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao He raised an eyebrow, now truly certain that Lin Yipeng had ideas for building a third part in his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But what will the third installment be like?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao He ran his thoughts through his mind, and then an unbelievable idea popped into his head—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In \"The Thief Catcher,\" it's not just the landlady whose identity and background are mysterious; there's also Shen Jue, and even the protagonist Jiang Rushuai himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example, Shen Jue's origins, Jiang Rushuai's act of collecting copper coins to complete the task, how the two met and became friends... these obviously hide another very deep story, or even more than one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>so......\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao He boldly speculated that this third part is a prequel!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That is, it tells a story that takes place before the first and second movies!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only in this way can the background and character relationships of \"The Thief Catcher\" be completed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I never expected this kid to have such ambitions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's worth noting that \"The Thief Catcher\" was Lin Yipeng's first work!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did you already plan to film the sequel from the beginning?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That's something he's capable of doing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even if you guess it, don't ask me, and don't have any expectations.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yipeng seemed to realize that Xiao He had already guessed it, and immediately warned him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao He just smiled and didn't press the matter further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Creating a film series is no easy task.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Look at Director Zhuang Hongyi. He's been famous for a long time, with money and resources. After all this time, he's finally bringing the \"Phantom Thieves\" series to the forefront, preparing to polish the second installment as a test, to see if the second film can achieve the same success as the first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So everything is still uncertain, and there's no need for him to worry about it so much and affect Director Lin's mood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Pu Rong and Qu Qiuyan also came over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come ➤ NоvеⅠight ➤ (Read more on our source) on, take this flower, let's all take a group photo.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pu Rong stuffed a bouquet of flowers into Xiao He's arms and then stood in the center, surrounding Xiao He and Qu Qiuyan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qu Qiuyan wore a veil with her makeup today, so she didn't force a smile like before, afraid that the wrinkles from her smile would scare others. Instead, she naturally smiled slightly, and even her eyebrows and eyes looked gentler.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's clear that she was very happy during the filming period.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And so this group photo captured everyone's joyful faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the yellow sand and dilapidated city walls behind them could not conceal their joy and vitality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, amidst the farewells of the \"The Thief 2\" crew, Xiao He and his team headed home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, it is already the last few days of December.\u003C\u002Fp>",1563,"2026-05-29T18:51:00.065Z","2026-06-01T04:29:59.536Z",1,"novelbin.me","6149e9616c2100c7317f3916519d13811b1309535cc1d4a2ba11da1194ec0873","brother-dao-took-the-entertainment-industry-by-s-chapter-578","brother-dao-took-the-entertainment-industry-by-s-chapter-576",734,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fbrother-dao-took-the-entertainment-industry-by-s-cover.jpg"]
