They stared at the two people in the pool of blood with their eyes wide open and their mouths wide open, their hearts filled with turmoil.

Abao's eyes widened immediately and he said: "Young master, what you mean is... these two people, they, they are all Beichen's subordinates?"

"Did they die to keep Beichen's secret?"

Ali and others were also busy looking at Shen Lian.

Shen Lian walked slowly towards the window. As he walked, he said calmly: "When the clues and evidence point to this point, no matter how shocking their points are, it is the truth."

"The room where Beichen lived gave him no chance to escape, and he had never been to the lobby on the first floor, let alone walked out of the door."

"But he did disappear, so...how did he disappear?"

"No one in this world can disappear out of thin air. No one has such ability, not even Beichen!"

"So, he must have left in some way."

"And there are no secret passages or mechanisms in the inn, so if you want to attract people's attention without being discovered by others, you can only do it in this room!"

Shen Lian walked to the window, pushed hard with both hands, and pushed the window open.

The cool breeze from outside blew in, sweeping away the heat in the entire room.

Shen Lian looked out the window and said: "Only here, there are alleys with few people, and there are no people in the backyard to leave."

"Beichen is such a cautious person, there is no way he would not leave a way out for himself, so this room..."

"Obviously, this is the escape route Beichen left for himself!"

"He deliberately rented this place with his cronies as his escape route. If something unexpected happens, he can leave here quickly!"

"And in order to prevent us from knowing about his departure from here as quickly as possible, his two confidants can only stay here to delay the time, so that we cannot know in time that Beichen left from here."

"This will provide the greatest opportunity for Beichen's evacuation."

"And when Beichen really left safely, their value was gone. So they were afraid of leaking the secrets about Beichen and the Beidou Society, so they used this method to die so that they could never leak the secrets."

"This is their loyalty to Beichen. That's why I just said that they are really two loyal people."

When everyone heard Shen Lian's words, they didn't know what they were thinking.

All in all...very complicated.

Beichen is cunning and difficult to deal with.

The loyalty of these two people who risked their lives...

They didn't know whether to hate these two people, and they lost their best chance to hunt down Beichen.

You should still admire them, at least... loyal people are still worthy of respect.

Shen Lian waved his hand and said: "Ah Bao, let someone collect their bodies. Regardless of the camp, their loyalty without fear of life and death is worth burying them."

Abao nodded quickly: "Yes, I understand."

Shen Lian looked out the window and saw that the window faced a remote alley...

The alley is not big and connects the back doors of some nearby mansions.

The back door is usually where servants go when they go out occasionally.

In this era, servants have very little freedom.

Therefore, there are very few people in the alley, and sometimes not even one person walks through it in a day.

The other end of the alley is directly connected to the busy main road.

Therefore, if he could enter an alley, change his appearance, disguise himself, and blend into the crowd, even gods would not be able to find this cunning fox in Chang'an City, a city with nearly a million people.

Shen Lian walked to another window, opened it, and saw the backyard of the inn outside the window.

The backyard is usually where waiters and cooks live.

When it is busy, there is basically no one in the backyard.

There is also a back door in the backyard. When you go out from the back door, you will find a busy road.

Therefore, no matter where you go, as long as no one pays attention to this place beforehand, you will not be discovered.

In addition, these two people stayed here, even Chu Suiliang was deceived. No one paid attention to the room here, and the best opportunity to hunt was naturally lost.

Therefore, Beichen is now a mud dragon that has entered the sea and is difficult to find.

However, Beichen escaped.

But the clues he left behind are indelible.

And this will also become Shen Lian's biggest reliance on Beichen.

"I couldn't help it before, I knew nothing about you, but now... you already have an image in my mind."

"Beichen, do you think you can really escape from my grasp?"

The gentle breeze swayed the willow branches.

Shen Lian looked away from the window, and there was no disappointment or shame on his face because of Beichen's escape.

Some are just calm and indifferent.

It was as if Beichen's final escape had no impact on Shen Lian at all.

Shen Lian glanced at everyone and said, "Let's go. Since Beichen has escaped, there is no use staying here."

After saying that, he calmly walked out of the room.

Chu Suiliang chased after him and couldn't help but said: "Don't you care, Commander Shen? We are just a little bit close to catching Beichen."

Hearing this, Shen Lian chuckled lightly.

He was very free and straightforward, and said with a smile: "For people like us, there are only two outcomes for everything, either we do it or we don't do it."

"There's never any room for error."

"Not to mention it was just a little bit close. Even if I had already caught Beichen's arm, Beichen cut off his arm cruelly and then escaped... That way, it still didn't change the result of his escape. In the end, it was still Didn’t do it.”

"Therefore, if you don't do it, you don't do it. I never think about things that are close or not close."

"Because the facts are already there. No matter how much you think about it, besides leaving yourself with a sad sigh, what else is there?"

What Shen Lian said was simple and clear.

Everything with him has only two results.

Did it, didn’t do it!

Apart from this, there are no third results or emotions.

Therefore, feelings such as disappointment and regret absolutely do not exist in Qin Wenyuan.

Because Shen Lian never bothers others.

He only thinks about the next goal. If he didn't achieve it this time, he will just do it next time.

Instead of regretting because you were just a little short of being able to do it.

This kind of emotion is the most useless to him.

That's why he can be so cool and calm.

Chu Suiliang felt as if he had seen through the vicissitudes of the world, and Chu Suiliang could only feel admiration.

After all, Chu Suiliang himself couldn't do what Qin Wenyuan was like.

In Chu Suiliang's view, this was already the kind of idea that only an expert could have.

But he didn't.

In a troubled world, how many people can see clearly?

Shen Lian just walked out of the inn without a trace of hesitation and said: "Retreat all the troops. There is no need to continue guarding the inn. It will affect the business of the inn and make the people more nervous."

He looked at Chu Suiliang and said, "Mr. Chu, you will officially enter the Dali Temple to serve."

"After this incident, His Majesty and the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty have come to know your abilities and will be grateful for what you have done."

"So your road in Dali Temple has been paved. When you handle cases in the future, they will cooperate with you even if they only look at this kindness. You don't have to worry about meeting Hou Junji like I did at the beginning. The kind of person who is uncooperative."

When Chu Suiliang heard this, his heart moved.

His eyes widened slightly, and he realized only now that the reason why Shen Lian used this to test him was not only to see his true ability, but also to pave the way for him!

After all, Chu Suiliang was an official of the former dynasty!

After all, Chu Suiliang had never entered the inner circle before.

Therefore, Chu Suiliang rashly joined the inner circle and held such an important position as Shaoqing, which would inevitably arouse the dissatisfaction of others.

But after what happened today, they will never be dissatisfied with Chu Suiliang again.

Therefore, Chu Suiliang’s future path will be smooth!

At least, it will be smoother than Shen Lian at that time.

And all of this is Shen Lian's plan.
