The Fall of the Shining Star

He was once a popular idol, the prince charming in the hearts of countless young girls, the affectionate Zhong Tianqi in the TV series "My Lucky Star."

But now, he has become a suspect in a murder case, locked up in a cold prison. His past halo has long faded, leaving only endless darkness and remorse.

Old Li used to be his fan, and also his neighbor. They lived in an old community. Old Li still remembered that when "My Lucky Star" was popular, the children in the community gathered at his door, clamoring to watch the TV series he was in.

At that time, he was still a sunny and handsome young man, always smiling and greeting everyone.

But, he changed from some unknown point.

He began to become taciturn, the smile on his face disappeared, he locked himself in his room all day, rarely going out.

Old Li used to think he was under a lot of pressure from work, so he didn't think much about it.

It wasn't until one day, when Old Li saw the news of his murder that he was completely shocked.

He couldn't believe that that former idol would become a murderer.

He began to recall, to recall those brief interactions he had with the idol, trying to find clues in the details, trying to know why he had reached this point.

He recalled that the idol had said in an interview that he didn't like to be the focus of attention, that he didn't like to live up to other people's expectations, that he just wanted to be an ordinary person.

However, he was in the entertainment industry, he could not help himself, he could not escape the chase of the spotlight, he could not get rid of the love of his fans.

He seemed to be trapped in a huge cage. The more he tried to break free, the more he was bound.

Old Li also remembered that a few days before the incident, he saw the idol walking in the community. He was wearing an old T-shirt and a baseball cap, like a lost child.

Was he already sensing something at that time? Was he already struggling in despair?

Old Li could not know the answer, he just felt a pang of sadness.

He looked at the face on the TV screen, which had been blurred by the media, his heart full of regret.

He thought of that line that Zhong Tianqi said to Xia Zhixing in "My Lucky Star": "I won't let you go alone."

But now, he has to face all the darkness and guilt alone.

Perhaps, from the day he stepped into the entertainment industry, he was already doomed to his fate.

He was like a fallen star, once illuminating other people's skies, but finally falling into darkness.

And what he left people with, apart from sighs, was endless reflection on the entertainment industry and on human nature.
