Shen Lian looked at Wang Xiaohua and said, "Xiaohua, let us people from Dali Temple also help."
Wang Xiaohua's eyes flashed.
She and Shen Lian looked at each other.
For a moment, Wang Xiaohuafu felt sincere, smiled knowingly, and said: "Master Han, you can rest here in peace. We have a lot of people in Dali Temple. They went to help, which is enough."
Han Xun, a member of the Ministry of Industry, heard this, thought about it, and immediately said: "Since my colleagues from Dali Temple are helping, it is true that there is no shortage of subordinates."
Shen Lian laughed and said, "Master Han has been busy for a while. Let's have a sip of tea and take a break."
Han Xun nodded: "Since Mr. Shen invites you, then it is better to obey your orders than to be respectful."
But because there was no room at Zhao Yeqin's table, Han Xun sat in his seat.
Han Xun's table was just across the aisle from Zhao Yeqin, so Shen Lian was sandwiched between them.
Shen Lian picked up the teapot and said, "Master Han, I will give you a cup of tea."
Han Xun quickly picked up his cup, stood up and said, "How dare I trouble Mr. Shen."
Shen Lian smiled and said: "It's not a problem, it's just a casual job."
He put the teapot close to Han Xun's cup and found that there was still half a cup of tea in Han Xun's cup. His hand accidentally touched the wall of the cup and it was still a little warm.
"Did Mr. Han just drink tea?" Shen Lian asked casually.
Han Xun hurriedly drank the rest of the tea in the cup, then held the teacup with both hands and approached the teapot. He said: "This was the tea that was poured before the fire. Because of the sudden fire, I forgot to drink it."
Shen Lian filled up the tea, sat back and nodded slightly: "I see."
A few people sat down and Shen Lian said casually: "Master Han, what kind of person do you think Zhang Qin is?"
"Master Zhang?"
Han Xun thought for a while and said: "Master Zhang is a kind person and doesn't want to compete. He is a very good colleague. Working with him makes people feel very comfortable."
Shen Lian smiled and said: "Zhang Qin's popularity is really good. Many people praise him like this."
Han Xun said with emotion: "These are the good impressions Mr. Zhang left on us in his daily life."
Shen Lian nodded slightly: "It's not a good impression. After all, Mr. Zhao is taking credit, and Zhang Qin doesn't care."
Zhao Yeqin looked a little embarrassed: "I didn't do it on purpose."
Han Xun said to Shen Lian: "Master Zhao is actually very honest, and he will never take the credit. That incident really happened due to many coincidences. Otherwise, with Master Zhao's personality, even if he would rather not take credit, I won’t take credit from others.”
Zhao Yeqin nodded quickly.
Shen Lian smiled and said: "I have no doubts about Mr. Zhao's character."
He picked up the teacup, gently blew the hot air on the surface, and said: "Master Han, Master Zhao said that when he got angry before, he saw Zhang Qin at the well. I wonder if you saw it, Master Han?"
Han Xun glanced at Zhao Yeqin, and then nodded: "Xiaoguan indeed saw it. When fighting the fire, Xiaguan was always with Mr. Zhao. We fetched water together, and then relayed water to put out the fire. Mr. Zhang was there at that time We are not far away, so we saw it together."
Shen Lian nodded suddenly: "That's it."
Wang Xiaohua on the side frowned delicately.
She suddenly wondered, was her guess wrong?
Before, he had always suspected that Zhao Yeqin was the murderer of Zhang Qin.
However, Han Xun said that he had always been with Zhao Yeqin.
This also shows that Zhao Yeqin has an alibi.
……………………
But if this is the case, then who will be the murderer?
Wang Xiaohua was a little confused.
Master Shen is obviously suspicious of Zhao Yeqin, is it possible that Master Shen is wrong in his suspicion?
She looked at Shen Lian and saw that Shen Lian's expression was as usual, not at all strange because of Han Xun's words."
Could it be that Master Shen has made a new discovery?
Or are you saying that you thought wrong?
Wang Xiaohua stood silently behind Shen Lian and continued to listen quietly to the conversation between the three.
……………………
Shen Lian took a sip of tea and nodded slightly: "You also saw Zhang Qin at that time, which means that Zhang Qin was killed after that."
When Han Xun heard this, he asked curiously: "Master Shen, who was Zhang Qin killed? Has your Excellency found out?"
Shen Lian shook his head.
He sighed: "To be honest with you, let alone finding the murderer, I haven't even found the scene of the first crime."
"The scene of the first crime was not found?"
Zhao Yeqin was startled and said: "Isn't it the dry well?"
Shen Lian shook his head and said: "No murder weapon was found there, and there were no obvious blood stains on the ground. There were also no traces of handling the blood stains."
"So, that's definitely not the scene of the first crime."
"Now, I am looking for the crime scene. If we can find it, we will not be far from solving the case."
"Right."
Shen Lian's eyes flashed, and he suddenly looked at the two of them and said, "Two adults, where do you think the scene of the first crime will be?"
"Where will the killer kill?"
When Han Xun and Zhao Yeqin heard Shen Lian's words, they looked at each other.
Han Xun smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying: "Master Shen, you are just asking us two questions. We know nothing about solving crimes. Even Master Shen doesn't know where the scene of the first crime is. How could we know? ?”
Zhao Yeqin also nodded quickly: "Yes, yes."
When Shen Lian saw this, he sighed: "I thought that since you have been living in the Ministry of Industry, you would have some sixth sense."
Zhao Yeqin hurriedly said: "Our sixth sense can't be used in murder cases."
Shen Lian smiled: "That's true."
He stopped talking, took a sip of tea, and said, "By the way, Mr. Han, I was just in the file room and saw the record of your borrowing files, and I saw Mr. Han's name on it."
"Yes, there is also Mr. Zhao's name."
Shen Lian looked at the two of them and said, "You two adults, do you usually like to borrow files?"
Zhao Yeqin's hand holding the teacup shook slightly. He quickly put the teacup on the table, put his hand under the table, and said: "Our Ministry of Industry is a technical organization after all, although we don't have to go to the front line to do things. , but we still need to understand some technical points."
"Otherwise, when His Majesty arranges tasks, we will not understand anything and will not be able to assign tasks."
"Therefore, in order to increase our knowledge, in our free time, we often go to the file room to read some files and look at previous designs to supplement our own shortcomings."
Han Xun also nodded and said: "Master Zhao is right. After all, our Ministry of Industry is different from the other five ministries. As long as we do not make progress, we will regress."
"Yeah?"
Shen Lian was a little surprised: "I thought you were all in charge and didn't know much about the specific technologies."
Zhao Yeqin hurriedly said: "How is this possible? We must understand this. No."
He said: "Master Han also borrowed a file today to..."
Halfway through the words, Zhao Yeqin suddenly paused, and at this time, Han Xun said with a smile: "For our Ministry of Industry, only by understanding basic technical knowledge can we better arrange tasks. Otherwise, we will arrange tasks randomly. If you don't know how to pretend to understand and interfere in specific matters, this will be a bad thing."
Shen Lian nodded slightly: "I admire the seriousness of these two adults."
Both of them shook their heads quickly and said they didn't dare.
In terms of position, Shen Lian is far superior to them, and they dare not accept Shen Lian's praise.
Shen Lian smiled. He glanced at the books and files on Han Xun's table and said, "You can see how serious Mr. Han is from Mr. Han's table."
With that said, Shen Lian raised his hand and waved lightly on Han Xun's table, driving away the flies that landed on it.
Shen Lian smiled and said: "It's late autumn, and these flies are still alive."
Han Xun hurriedly cleared the files and books on the table and said, "I won't live much longer. It's cold and I'll freeze to death."
"That's true."
Shen Lian tapped his fingertips on the tea cup. He looked at Han Xun's dark official robe and was about to say something.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside.
I saw the snake walking quickly.
After seeing Shen Lian, he said directly: "Master Shen, there are some clues about what you asked my subordinate to investigate."
Hearing this, Shen Lian said, "Tell me about it."
Sishe glanced at Zhao Yeqin and Han Xun, came to Shen Lian's ear, and whispered something.
After Shen Lian heard this.
Sighed for a lifetime.
"Why?"
Shen Lian suddenly spoke quietly.
Han Xun and Zhao Yeqin were a little confused when they heard Shen Lian's questions.
Zhao Yeqin said: "Master Shen, have you encountered any problems?"
Shen Lian looked at Zhao Yeqin and said calmly: "I can understand that you would do that. After all, he will definitely not let you go."
"But……"
Shen Lian suddenly looked at Han Xun, the official who was sitting attentively and with extraordinary bearing, and said: "I can't understand, Han Xun, why do you do this?"
"With your character, although a lot of evidence points to you, I still have some doubts."
"But now, the evidence is sufficient."
"However, I still don't understand the reason."
"you……"
Shen Lian said word by word: "Why do you have to sacrifice your life for Zhang Qin?"
"And why...kill him?"
In the office room.
The atmosphere suddenly solidified as Shen Lian spoke his words.
Wang Xiaohua's beautiful, moist eyes widened suddenly, and she looked at Han Xun, a foreign minister from the Ministry of Industry, with great surprise!
Si She seemed to know something. She didn't look particularly surprised. She just grasped the handle of the knife with her fingertips and stared at Han Xun warily.
Zhao Yeqin, a doctor in the Ministry of Industry, suddenly stood up as if he was sitting on a nail.
His mouth widened and his pupils shrank violently. He wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.
As for Yuanwailang Han Xun, his movements holding the tea cup were stagnant, as if time had stopped flowing and was frozen in place.
In the office, it seemed as if time had stopped, as if the air had stopped flowing. It was obviously a cool late autumn day, but Zhao Yeqin and Han Xun were indeed sweating.
There was wind blowing outside the window, causing the windows to creak.
This sound broke the stagnant air, brought a chill, and made everyone react.
Han Xun put down the tea cup, looked at Shen Lian, with a smile on his face, and said: "Why did Mr. Shen make such a joke?"
"How could I kill Mr. Zhang?"
"I don't have any conflicts or grudges with Mr. Zhang. I don't have any reason to kill him."
"Besides, as I said before, Mr. Zhao and I have been putting out the fire. Mr. Zhao can prove to me that it is impossible for me to kill Mr. Zhang."
Zhao Yeqin's nerves also reacted at this time.
He nodded quickly and said, "Yes, Mr. Han and I have always been together, and I can prove it."
Shen Lian looked at Han Xun, who looked calm and composed, and said slowly: "Master Han, with your calmness and composure, being a foreign minister is a bit unworthy of your talents."
"With your ability, I feel that it will not be difficult for you to at least take the position of minister."
Han Xun said: "I don't understand what Lord Shen means."
Shen Lian sighed and said slowly: "Since you want to pretend to be stupid, let's present evidence one by one."
"It's time for the truth about this case, the murder of Zhang Qin, to come to light."
Zhao Yeqin couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard Shen Lian's words, and said with a look of shock: "Master Shen, do you mean... you... you have solved the case?"
Shen Lian nodded slightly and said, "This case is actually not as complicated as imagined."
"Compared to the Han Qian murder case investigated by this officer, it is much simpler."
"Because this case is not very technically difficult, and the murderer doesn't have much time to disguise and deal with it, so to investigate this case, just go straight to the investigation."
"As long as we can find a key clue, we can directly deduce the truth later."
Shen Lian concluded: "This is very simple."
Simple?
Zhao Yeqin blinked.
He always felt that there seemed to be some difference between the simplicity in Shen Lian's words and the simplicity he knew.
Shen Lian said: "Let's talk about the first thing first, which is what I mentioned to you before, the first crime scene."
Zhao Yeqin and others all looked at Shen Lian.
Wang Xiaohua's beautiful eyes were also full of bright look at this time.
She looked at Shen Lian with her eyes, and at this moment, she felt that Shen Lian was glowing.
Shen Lian said: "Dry Well is not the scene of the first crime. You all know this reason, so I won't go into details."
"So, I need to find the place where the deceased was actually killed."
"At first, what I suspected was the deceased's office."
"After all, the deceased's office was a single room. As long as the doors and windows were closed, no one would be able to easily discover anything that happened inside, let alone the special period of the fire. Everyone was in a panic, so it would be even less likely. Pay attention to what happened in Zhang Qin's office."
"but……"
