Murder smells like honeysuckle

He walked slowly to the office, leaned hard on the chair, and began to confess in a weak tone: "...At that time, I had no interest in goldfish, car renewals, Mr. Di and his daughter, I was thinking about the upstairs woman……"

"That afternoon, it was very hot, and I still remember the smell of honeysuckle on the street. I didn't expect that sometimes murder smells like honeysuckle."

When they first met, the woman smiled cunningly, and her words revealed her intentions. Men who had read countless people saw her killing intent at a glance, but because of her affection for her, he even felt joy in his heart.

The case isn't complicated, and the hero, a salesman, stands up for love and plots a seemingly perfect accident so that the woman can get insurance payouts.

But the plan can't keep up with the changes. If you are not careful, you will lose everything.

Fortunately, he avoided the suspicion of his worst enemy, his fiery-eyed boss, who did not notice his abnormality and trusted him wholeheartedly.

But the cry of the deceased's daughter made him re-acquainted with that woman, the woman he loved to kill, an extremely terrifying demon. Under the use of demons, he destroys the family of an innocent girl.

He can no longer return to a peaceful life.

Day by day, I will suffer from mental torture.

What else can be done?

He and her met in the house where they first met. The two looked calm and taunted each other. She was using him, and he had given up on her.

The gunshots sounded, he was still standing, but she couldn't fire the second shot. This femme fatale was actually moved.

She was in his arms, tears flashing, and he pulled the trigger.

I think rational people are either too romantic or too adventurous once they become emotional, and the hero has both.

Crime for love, this unusual passion, as touching as a poppy flower, is enough to make the devil fall.

Although in the dark, he told the woman that he was going to get off at this stop, but when he was shot, his voice revealed a calm desperation, and gently told her that she had missed a bit and hit again .

Can't help but sigh, he is really a romantic man, but once a mistake is made, it will only sink deeper and deeper in the mire.

    In fact, I don’t really like this kind of noir film very much. After watching it, I always feel a sense of depression. The tone of this film itself is relatively old-fashioned. It’s not like I don’t like it.

    Classic noir film, but a little worse. The characteristic of film noir is that there is no trace of coming and going, and it only looks at the present. The drama of the femme fatale is really cool. The soundtrack is a little weak, and it's hard for Billy to tell such a simple story to hold the audience. The composition of the scene with the three people at the door is excellent and the tension is outstanding.
