He was waiting for Shen Lian to speak. As long as Shen Lian gave him some words, he would not let Shen Lian get his way.

Then... he looked at Shen Lian as if he didn't see him, his eyes swept over him as if they were a ball of air, and he ignored him.

"Then let's talk about the murderer's modus operandi first."

Shen Lian spoke calmly.

Butler: "...Why don't you ask me?"

He couldn't help but asked loudly.

Shen Lian raised his eyebrows and said calmly: "We are all imperial officials, you are just a servant, let me ask you, are you worthy?"

"you……"

The housekeeper didn't utter a word and almost vomited blood out of breath.

His face suddenly turned red with anger, and his whole body started to tremble.

Xu Gou saw the butler looking like he was about to be pissed to death, and couldn't help but express his admiration for his young master.

My young master is so awesome for criticizing others.

It's a hundred times better than the curse words I inherited from my ancestors!

Shen Lian did what he said and ignored the housekeeper. He began to tell the case: "As you can see, the cause of death of the deceased was that the dagger pierced the back of the heart and died directly."

"So, normally speaking, the killer had a fight with the deceased, and then found an opportunity to fatally stab the deceased in the back, right?"

Everyone nodded slightly: "Of course, you can tell it at a glance."

Shen Lian smiled and said, "So, you all think that the murderer was the one who killed the person behind his back, right?"

"You don't need to say this."

An official said sarcastically: "You can see it if you have eyes, but you asked twice. It seems that the most intelligent person in the Tang Dynasty was just like this."

Shen Lian glanced at this person and chuckled: "Really?"

"But……"

He suddenly lengthened his voice and said calmly: "I don't think so! I, Shen, think the murderer..."

He suddenly pointed at the corpse on the floor and said, "It's lying here!!!"

"What?"

Everyone was stunned when they heard Shen Lian's words.

"Lie here?"

"Shen Lian, are you kidding me? How could the murderer lie here and stab Mr. Wang in the back of his heart with a dagger? This is simply impossible!"

"That's right! Shen Lian, even if you lie, please find a better lie, okay?"

No one believed Shen Lian's words.

Not to mention them, even Xu Gou and Zhao Xianye were a little stunned at this time.

I can't understand what Shen Lian said.

The cause of death of the deceased was that a dagger was stabbed into the back of the heart, and the deceased died facing the ground, so the murderer must have struck from behind the deceased.

No matter how you look at it, it’s impossible to lie on the ground!

And lying on the ground, with his hands facing the ground, there was no way to use the dagger...

Therefore, with their imagination, they really can't imagine how to kill people while lying on the ground.

This made them all look at Shen Lian.

When Shen Lian heard their words of distrust, his expression did not change at all.

After all, this was a case that Beichen and the others committed specifically to frame him. If these fools figured it out easily, then either Beichen and the others looked down on themselves, or they themselves were stupid.

But are Beichen and the others stupid?

Of course not!

Will they underestimate themselves?

It’s even more impossible!

After all, Beichen's losses a few days ago are still fresh in his mind.

Beichen is not that kind of ignorant and arrogant person. He has fought against him again and again and lost again and again, which will only make him more vigilant and careful about himself, and he will never underestimate him more.

Therefore, this case is complicated.

"It doesn't matter if you don't believe it."

Shen Lian spoke calmly, unhurriedly.

He didn't blush at all because of other people's distrust, and insisted that they admit that what he said was the truth.

He said: "Your brain is not working well, I don't blame you."

"Next, I will demonstrate the murderer's murder process. I hope you will use your brains and open your eyes to see carefully. If you still don't understand after I demonstrate it...then you are really stupid."

Being ridiculed by Shen Lian for being stupid, these officials couldn't help but darken their faces.

They looked very ugly.

But when they thought of Shen Lian's terrifying cleverness...the words of rebuttal came to their lips, and they swallowed them back.

There is no way, if other people say they are stupid, they will scold them back without hesitation.

But Shen Lian said they were stupid...

They can only endure it.

After all, they are self-aware and know that there is really no comparison between their own brains and Shen Lian's.

What Shen Lian has done in the past six months or so has made everyone realize that Shen Lian's IQ is not at the same level as theirs.

Seeing that these officials were silent, Shen Lian laughed without any surprise.

For those who are officials, regardless of whether they are corrupt or honest, knowing the current affairs is the first criterion for being an official.

Knowing what you are like is the second rule.

Finding your own position is the third criterion.

It seems that these officials have learned the basic principles well.

"Xugou."

Shen Lian ignored them and returned to the case itself.

Xu Gou quickly looked at Shen Lian: "Young Master."

Shen Lian pointed to a piece of thin thread on the ground and said, "Find a thread with the same thickness and material as this thin thread."

"Here it is."

Before Xu Gou could speak, Zhao Xianye took a handful of thin thread from a government servant and said, "I found this outside the window. I didn't know if it was useful, so I put it away temporarily."

Shen Lian glanced at Zhao Xianye and gave a rare compliment: "Master Zhao, you are beautiful."

Although he didn't know the purpose of this thin thread, Zhao Xianye almost floated into the sky after being praised by Shen Lian.

Shen Lian pointed to a pillar and said, "Xugou, have you seen that pillar? Is there a small piece of thin wire tied there on the pillar?"

Xu Gou quickly took a closer look, and sure enough, there was really a small thin line.

"Sir, there is."

At this time, all the officials also approached the pillar and saw the small thin line.

An official asked: "What happened to the thin line? Is there any problem?"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Shen Lian did not answer.

Instead, he glanced at the butler.

The butler said nothing at this time, but the look in his eyes was dark and unclear, making people wonder what he was thinking.

"Go, at that location, tie one end of the string there."

Xu Gou quickly followed suit.

Soon, one end of the thin thread was tied to it.

Then Shen Lian pointed to the beam above his head and said, "Put the other end of the thin thread through the beam until it reaches the top of the deceased."

Xu Gou jumped up without saying a word. When he reached the beam, he took a look and said hurriedly: "Master, there is a trace of a thin line on this beam, which is very obvious."

"What?"

Some officials were startled.

Shen Lian had not checked on the beams just now, but now it seemed as if he had known this for a long time.

He said calmly: "Don't destroy that trace, it's important evidence. Pull the thin wire through from the other side."
