When the warriors Yan and Wu Meiniang heard this, they couldn't help but frown.
Although the person who sent the message was found.
But the groom had no idea who that person was.
Isn’t this clue broken again?
However, Shen Lian did not have any surprises.
This was what he expected.
No matter who it is, since they choose to rely on others to deliver letters, their identity will not be exposed easily.
but……
If it's not exposed, that doesn't mean there are really no clues at all.
Shen Lian did not frown like Warrior Yan.
His expression remained as usual.
He looked at the groom calmly and said slowly: "Next, I ask and you answer."
"What do I ask and what do you answer?"
"I hope you won't hide anything. Otherwise, if you dare to hide it at this time, it will only increase your guilt!"
"In the end, maybe you will spend the rest of your life in prison."
"In that case, you will never see your son again."
When the groom heard what Shen Lian said, his expression suddenly changed.
He nodded nervously and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Shen, I will never dare to hide anything."
"Young people must tell you everything they know."
Wu Meiniang couldn't help but look at Shen Lian.
She thought it was hopeless and couldn't find any other clues.
The person who bribed the groom was so cunning that there was no way he could have left any clues.
But Shen Lian didn't seem to give up!
Could it be that, he felt, there were other hopes?
Shen Lian saw Wu Meiniang looking at him in confusion.
Smiling softly, he said: "Miss Wu, although you are very smart, you are not from our Dali Temple after all. After all, you have not personally investigated the case."
"So, you don't know..."
Shen Lian said calmly: "In Dali Temple, in order to investigate the case, even if there is no hope, we will continue to persevere in order to find the truth behind it."
"The criminals behind many cases are very insidious and cunning people."
"And many victims are waiting for the day when the truth comes out."
"So, if we encounter some problems and setbacks and feel that there is no hope and give up...then there is really no hope of the truth being revealed to the world."
Wu Meiniang was stunned for a moment.
She only felt that at this moment, her heart seemed to be touched by something.
She looked at Shen Lian blankly.
And Shen Lian had already turned his gaze to the groom.
He asked the groom: "How did that mysterious man find you at that time?"
"Did your son find you just after he got into debt?"
"Or did you wait until you were really desperate before you took action?"
The groom thought for a moment and said, "He came to find me the day after my son was caught in debt."
"At that time, I happened to have something to do and left Wu Mansion. Not long after I left, I felt someone bump into me."
"I was knocked to the ground, but when I got up, I didn't find the person who hit me."
"But at that time, I discovered that there was a letter on the ground."
"My name is clearly written on the envelope of that letter."
"I didn't think much about it at the time. When I saw my name on the letter, I became curious and opened the letter."
"As a result, the letter said that my son was in great danger. If I couldn't raise the money, my son's hands would be gone."
"Then, he also said that he had a way. If I wanted to save my son, I would go to the place marked on the letter according to the time on the letter."
"I was really worried about my son at that time. In panic, I didn't hesitate and went to the place at the time and place mentioned in the letter!"
Shen Lian asked: "Where is that?"
The groom said: "A ruined temple about ten miles south of Chang'an City."
Broken temple?
Shen Lian narrowed his eyes.
Going to the ruined temple seems to be to deceive others.
And no one usually goes there.
This will also prevent you from being discovered by others.
Shen Lian said: "Continue talking."
The groom continued: "When the little people arrived at the ruined temple, they found that man!"
"He was standing in the ruined temple at that time, wearing a black robe and a mask. He looked very mysterious."
"When I first saw him, I felt that he was not a good person. He was just doing it for my son. I could only grit my teeth and go in."
Shen Lian nodded.
He said: "As you said, before that person sent you the letter, you were not in despair because of your son's matter, right?"
The groom nodded: "I only knew that my son had been arrested, but I didn't know how much it would cost."
"If I had known, I might have collapsed a long time ago."
Shen Lian narrowed his eyes.
He said calmly: "If it were me, I would want to take advantage of you. In order to make you obedient and not give you any chance to refuse, I will choose the most suitable time!"
"That's when you become desperate!"
"At that time, if I make any request, you don't have to choose the time!"
"But he didn't do that."
"This...can only mean one thing."
Wu Meiniang asked hurriedly: "What's the matter?"
Shen Lian squinted his eyes and said calmly: "He didn't have much time, so he prepared in a hurry!"
"And he is prepared to rush, which shows..."
Shen Lian curled up his lips: "He will definitely not be able to cover everything. In other words, he will...leave flaws!"
Wu Meiniang heard what Shen Lian said.
A glimmer of light suddenly appeared in a pair of beautiful eyes.
She didn't expect that Shen Lian, in this situation, could also deduce the situation in which the thief was doing these things, and whether the thief was well prepared or not.
This ability.
It was really beyond her expectation.
She couldn't help but look at Shen Lian with her eyes, sparkling and full of expectation!
She wanted to know whether this famous minister of Dali Temple could really find any valuable clues!
Shen Lian looked at the groom again.
He said: "Tell me in detail what happened after you met him."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Remember, no detail can be missed."
"At the same time, don't add your own understanding. You just need to describe it objectively without saying anything more."
The groom nodded quickly.
He said: "In the ruined temple, the young people were a little scared because of their son's affairs, but they still went in."
"After entering, the mysterious man turned around and looked at Xiaomin."
"He was wearing a mask. Xiaomin didn't know what he looked like, but his eyes were full of coldness and indifference. He stared at Xiaomin with a feeling of trepidation."
"Xiaomin was afraid, so he spoke first and asked him if he could really save Xiaomin's son."
"The mysterious man said that as long as I listened to his instructions and did what he said, he would give me half of the money first."
"Then, when the matter is completed, you will give me the other half of the money!"
The groom looked remorseful and said, "I really shouldn't have listened to him."
"It's just that at that time, Xiaomin was only thinking about saving his son. Xiaomin couldn't refuse him at all!"
"So Xiaomin said, you can help him, but you must not touch Xiaomin's bottom line!"
"Xiaomin will never help him harm others!"
"He said that he didn't need Xiaomin to help him harm others. What he asked Xiaomin to do was very simple. He only needed Xiaomin to send a letter to the master."
The groom took a deep breath and said: "Xiaomin felt at that time that it was just a letter sent and it did not really hurt the master. Moreover, Xiaomin was really worried about my son."
"So... after much hesitation, I finally agreed."
He looked at the warrior Yan and slapped himself again.
He blamed himself: "Sir, I really know I was wrong. I really didn't expect that letter would have such a big impact on you."
"If I knew that letter would affect the master, I definitely wouldn't listen to it!"
Listening to the groom's self-blame, the warrior Yi sighed: "You are also eager to save your son."
Shen Lian's expression did not change.
What the groom does is subject to laws.
He is now a ruthless crime-solving machine.
Through the description of the groom.
Shen Lian was restoring it in his mind without any subjective emotions.
this moment.
He was like the third person in the ruined temple.
Calmly and indifferently, he watched the transactions going on in the ruined temple.
He carefully observed the reactions of the groom and the mysterious man, listened to their words, and then made logical deductions to try to discover whether there were any logical flaws in the whole process.
In this way, Shen Lian pondered for a moment.
He looked at the groom and said, "You delivered a message for him. Did he give you the money he promised you?"
The groom shook his head and said: "Not long after Xiaomin put the letter in the car, he was discovered by the master. Then the master went to find Mr. Shen and asked him to wait here. Naturally, Xiaomin had no chance to go. Pick."
Shen Lian's eyes flashed.
He looked at the warrior Yan and said: "Master Wu, although I feel that that person will not fulfill his promise."
"But what if?"
"So, you can still give it a try."
Warrior Yan immediately understood what Shen Lian meant.
He looked at the groom and asked: "Did he tell you how to get the other half of the money after he asked you to do it?"
The groom nodded and said, "He asked me to go to the ruined temple outside the city after I finish the job."
"He will wait for me in the ruined temple and give me the other half of the money."
Shen Lian looked at the warrior Yan.
Samurai Yan nodded directly: "I will immediately arrange for someone to go over and check. If there is really someone, arrest him directly!"
Saying that, the warrior Yan quickly ordered his men to go.
Wu Meiniang looked at Shen Lian and said, "Master Shen doesn't seem to have high hopes for this?"
Shen Lian smiled: "Because if it were me, I would never show up again. My goal has been achieved, so... why should I pay money and fulfill my promise? I'm not doing business, I have to be honest. .”
"so……"
He looked at the groom and sighed: "You have been completely deceived."
"Whether you listen to him or not, your son will not be saved."
The groom's face instantly turned pale as if he had been struck by lightning.
Shen Lian passed for more than half an hour.
The warrior Yu returned on his fast horse.
The groom hurriedly asked the warrior Yan: "Master, how are you? Is that man coming?"
The warrior Yi got off his horse.
He shook his head and said: "There is no one there."
"I also sent people to ask people who were working in the fields nearby. Those people said that except for a few days ago, when I saw you and a mysterious man going to the ruined temple, no one has ever been to the ruined temple."
"so……"
The warrior Yan looked at the groom and said: "You have been deceived. He has never thought about fulfilling his promise to you."
The groom's eyes widened and his eyes suddenly turned pale.
The whole person felt like falling into an ice cave.
He seemed to have suffered repeated severe blows.
He betrayed his master who had been with him for ten years and wanted to use money to save his son.
But in the end, he never thought of fulfilling his promise to him.
He was cheated!
Not only did he fail to save his son.
It also ruined his own future.
The groom's body stooped. He was already old, but at this moment, he looked as if he had aged ten years.
Wu Meiniang saw this scene.
A pair of beautiful eyes could not help but widen slightly.
He couldn't help but look at Shen Lian.
She didn't expect that Shen Lian guessed everything correctly!
Not a single mistake!
All this was within Shen Lian's expectation.
"The most intelligent person in the Tang Dynasty..."
Wu Meiniang is really becoming more and more interested in Shen Lian.
Warrior Yi came to Shen Lian and said solemnly: "Master Shen, there is no gain."
Shen Lian looked calm, and said with a smile: "I also feel that there is at least a 80% chance that there will be no harvest, so this is nothing."
"Being able to confirm that he didn't go can actually prove one thing."
Wu Meiniang asked hurriedly: "What's the matter?"
Shen Lian narrowed his eyes and said: "It can prove that he doesn't want to do anything more. Maybe he just wants to threaten you. It would be good if he can succeed."
"If he doesn't succeed, he still works hard!"
"This shows that the person who threatens Mr. Wu is definitely not strong himself and has no real ability to destroy the Wanbang Chamber of Commerce."
Wu Meiniang looked puzzled.
She asked: "Why do you say that?"
Shen Lian smiled and said, "It's very simple."
He said: "Miss Wu, we use deduction."
"Deduction method?" Wu Meiniang blinked.
Shen Lian smiled and said, "Just pretend that you are the thief."
"And you, after using the groom to send the threatening letter, if you want to do other things further, what will you do?"
Wu Meiniang frowned.
She pondered for a moment and said: "As for me, if I want to continue to do other things and really want to destroy the Wanbang Chamber of Commerce, I will continue to use Ma Fu!"
"Because he has done something for me."
"It's equivalent to giving me control over the horse's feet!"
"In that case, even if I don't bribe him with benefits and I threaten him, he will never dare to resist me!"
The groom's eyes widened.
He didn't expect that his young lady would be so cruel and ruthless.
Seeing this, Wu Meiniang hurriedly said: "This is not what I thought, but what if I were the thief."
Shen Lian smiled and said, "Wu Meiniang, don't worry."
Seeing this, Wu Meiniang hurriedly said: "This is not what I thought, but what if I were the thief."
Shen Lian smiled and said, "Wu Meiniang, don't worry."
