Although the Sheriff's interrogation skills are very skillful, it is obvious that the results are not very satisfactory.
She stood outside the yard and watched the sheriff come and leave with a dark face.
As the door closed, she felt like they were like a group of unconscious poisonous insects, locked up in a small world and forced to fight continuously.
Either become the final winner, or be swallowed up silently.
It's like refining poison.
Lin Mengya lowered her eyes, with a meaningful smile on her lips.
After the innkeeper came back from Boss Yang, he changed his dejected look, and the wrinkles in the corners of his eyes were filled with a smile that could not be concealed.
She asked Cairu to ask, and it turned out that Boss Yang was kind-hearted and offered to redeem the store, and at double the original price.
The shopkeeper naturally thought it was a good deal.
Moreover, he also rented this shop. This is the rule of Fairy City. Anyone who opens a shop can only rely on renting, and the rent is very expensive.
Not only can he save his capital this time, he may also be able to make a small profit.
The shopkeeper was naturally very grateful to Boss Yang, and almost treated him like a god.
But after Lin Mengya learned the news, she felt that the matter might not be that simple.
Opening a guesthouse in Fairy City is definitely a sure-fire business.
But there is a difference between making a small profit and making a big profit.
Under the rigid regulations of the managers, the prices in Fairy City are actually very slim.
To make matters worse, Fairy City will never allow anyone to break the contract.
In other words, no matter whether a person is alive or dead, he must wait until the day when the contract is terminated.
Now, a lot of people have been deceived.
If everything goes smoothly during this period, you are considered lucky.
I'm afraid that something will happen in the middle, and then we will lose both our lives and our money.
That's why the guest house owner is so anxious.
As for Boss Yang, since he is a businessman, he will definitely not engage in such a loss-making business.
I'm afraid there must be something else they don't know about.
After two people died one after another, people in the guest house were panicked.
Everyone is staying in their own houses, and even food and drink are provided by themselves.
Trust has become a luxury that everyone is stingy with here.
However, Lin Mengya and others were the least affected.
Because they all know that their partners will never betray them.
They stayed in their rooms all day long, and it wasn't until evening that everyone came out to get some air.
As the most suspected person now, as soon as she comes out, I felt a few piercing gazes.
"If you want me to tell the real culprit of this murder, I'd better come out and confess as soon as possible, so as not to waste everyone's time."
The one who spoke was considered one of the caravans with a relatively powerful family background.
Of course, they are not direct relatives, just indirect relatives.
But relying on the power of the host family, they can be considered to have quite a say in this guest house.
Lin Mengya looked at the other person. He was a thin middle-aged man, but when he saw this, he glared at her impatiently.
"I think this is the fault of the head of the Gong family. Women should stay at home properly. If they come out, they will only cause trouble!"
The "troublemaker" herself said that she was always at fault.
But others had said so, and she didn't want to express it.
He immediately said, "Whatever happens to her, that's her business. If men were so useful, I wouldn't have to be exposed to wind and rain every day. Isn't it because women are doing things because you men are too incompetent?"
These words slapped a lot of men in the face.
The skinny man suddenly got angry, pointed at her and scolded her, "No matter how you argue, it's all because of you! Not to mention how Wang Dagui died, let's talk about Sun Biao. He was just joking with you.
Two sentences, why did you kill me next time?"
Listen, it's clear that he wants to put the blame on her.
Lin Mengya glanced at the man coldly, "Haven't you heard a sentence? Women have the most vicious hearts. If it were really me, I guarantee that his death would be even worse."
Seeing that she was so ignorant, the man actually started to instigate others.
"You all heard it, right? She said this herself! With such a petty mind, she must have killed the person!"
But there are not many fools in the crowd.
There were a few people who agreed, but in the end they were silent.
The skinny man looked at her and suddenly grabbed her and shouted, "Tie her up! Otherwise, we will be the ones who die tonight!"
Cairu drove them away, and the guys also surrounded them.
Seeing that it was impossible, the man immediately raised his voice and said, "Have you forgotten? Wang Dagui and Sun Biao were killed because they had a disagreement with her! Even if she didn't do it herself, the people behind the scenes also followed
She has something to do with it. I am risking my life today just for the sake of the big guy!"
When life is at stake, everyone will no longer pretend to be deaf and dumb.
They gathered around her indistinctly, their eyes falling directly on her.
The guys also became nervous.
close
At the critical moment, they are not afraid of exposing their martial arts, but they are worried that doing so will ruin their master's plan.
Lin Mengya frowned slightly and said, "What do you want to do?"
From the crowd, a young man who looked very upright walked out.
He cupped his hands towards Lin Mengya and said, "Girl, I believe you are innocent. But there is some truth to what Shopkeeper Hou said. Why don't you let us tie you up in order to prove your innocence. If someone else is victimized after tonight
, that will prove that the girl has nothing to do with this matter."
She took a look at the people around her and found that almost everyone might have the same mentality.
Cairu protected her, and so did the guys.
But the eyes of the group of people outside were shining with firm and crazy light.
They are afraid of death, so they must catch the bad guys.
Therefore, Lin Mengya, who was innocently victimized, became the target that they collectively wanted to expel.
As for whether she is innocent or not, that is beyond their consideration.
The selfish side of human nature is vividly displayed at this time.
Lin Mengya's heart was filled with anger, but she did not get angry. Instead, she looked at the skinny man and the young man and said, "I can be tied up by you, but tonight, I have to spend the night in the yard. In full view of everyone, I must have
Everyone can clearly see what I do, right?"
Didn't they want her to prove her innocence?
Then she will prove it well and let them fully understand how stupid it is to do so.
In the crowd, the thin middle-aged man and the young man looked at each other quietly, their eyes filled with cold color.
The rope belonged to a skinny man, but the knot was tied by a young man.
When people are restrained, it is actually very uncomfortable.
Always maintaining the same posture will cause the blood to concentrate in one part, causing pain first and then numbness.
"Master, these people are so disrespectful to you, how can you respond?"
Cairu gave her some saliva in distress, and similarly, their subordinates were also kicked out.
Not far away, there were people taking turns watching them.
Although her limbs were uncomfortable and tight, she remained calm and said with her eyes closed, "Even if I find a way to get rid of them for the first time, they will have other ways to make me submit. Instead of doing this, I might as well obey them first."
thought."
Those two men have already captured everyone's hearts.
They are afraid of death, so when someone pops up and offers a solution that may solve all current difficulties, these people will respond blindly.
And because of her previous differences and the security issues, she The official's unintentional targeting made him the target of public criticism.
But they will soon understand that doing so is in vain.
Just when she was bored and wanted to read a book in the system, her ears suddenly caught a subtle movement.
"Shh-"
Cairu and the guys immediately fell silent, and the person guarding them not far away also said nothing because of nervousness.
Lin Mengya absorbed all the sounds in her ears.
Then, she peeled off the rest of the noise bit by bit, and finally got what she wanted.
She closed her eyes and fell asleep, but her ears kept listening for the sounds coming from there.
After a long time, she suddenly opened her eyes.
"master?"
Cairu asked in a low voice, and Lin Mengya's lips moved and told her something.
"Someone is digging something in the backyard."
It was the sound of a shovel hitting a stone, and it was already very subtle. If she hadn't had abnormal hearing, she would have been ignored.
Despite this, the sound was irregular and became quieter each time.
It seems that the person who did it has noticed the rocks in the ground, so he deliberately avoided them.
When she heard the last thing, she saw no other movement.
No wonder they wanted to withdraw her to attract attention. It turned out that their purpose was here.
The surroundings were quiet, and she sat quietly on the quilt brought by Cairu.
If nothing else happens, no one will die tonight.
Because once something happens, her suspicion will be cleared.
This may not be a good thing for those behind the scenes.
But things obviously went beyond her expectations.
In the early morning of the next day, someone screamed again.
"Here comes someone! Something happened to my shopkeeper!"
Lin Mengya and Cairu were frightened.
The latter immediately took out his pocket knife and cut off the rope on Lin Mengya's body.
The person in charge of the guard saw it and did not dare to say anything. He had to tell his companions to keep an eye on the person and rushed to the scene of the crime.
Because Lin Mengya had difficulty moving, she stayed where she was with her people.
Soon after, the skinny man and the young man led their people to the front yard aggressively.
Before she could speak, Cairu mocked her and said, "My young lady has been tied up by you all night, and her hands and feet are all numb now. Why are you so stupid and want to frame my young lady?"
In full view, everyone saw the dark red marks on her wrists.
