Zhou Ze and Jonathan Ye both looked at Lin Chong in surprise, and saw that he was still holding the jade pendant in both hands, but half of it was held in one hand. He really broke the jade pendant into pieces, and as he said, the jade pendant was hidden.
With some mystery.
Jonathan picked up a small piece of iron that fell on the table, turned it over and over in front of his eyes, and found nothing suspicious. He turned around and handed it to Lin Chong.
"What is it?" Lin Chong was curious.
"This should be what is hidden in the jade pendant, a token that truly represents one's identity." Zhou Ze replied in a deep voice.
Lin Chong grabbed the small piece of iron and studied it carefully, but it was full of words and symbols that he could not understand. Therefore, he could not determine what the small piece of iron represented, nor did he know what the words and symbols on it meant.
What message is to be conveyed can only be inferred from the shape.
Although they can't understand it, there must be someone who can. Song Fang lives in this small shop with this token that will bring her life danger. She should be waiting for someone.
She was waiting for someone to come over to hand over the matter to him, or for two people to go and take something together. Since they had already suspected it was the clerk in the store, they could not continue to sit still and wait for death. The news that this thing was now in their hands,
Sooner or later, others will know about it, and it may lead to death. The current plan is to find out its value and the identity of the owner as soon as possible.
For this reason, Lin Chong thought of a trick to "lead the snake out of the hole" to lure all these people out.
In the evening, as usual, everyone gathered in the lobby to eat, but what was different today was that Lin Chong and his party did not choose to eat upstairs, but had fun with everyone downstairs.
They had originally promised seven days to the county magistrate and prefect for this case, and today was the fourth day. Lin Zhong had a hunch that maybe this case would be solved in less than seven days. Once the case was solved, they could continue on their way with peace of mind.
.
You must know that they have delayed a lot of travel here, and time is very precious to them now.
During the meal, Lin Chong excitedly discussed the contents of Song Fang's baggage with Zhou Ze and Jonathan. Especially when it came to the jade pendant, they whispered in front of the waiter.
After eating, they quickly went back to their respective homes. After Lin Chong finished eating, he lazily entered his room No. 2 in Tianzi and never came out.
Sure enough, in the middle of the night, a dark figure sneaked into the second room of Tianzi. When Wang Chengenti slipped out with a man in black, Lin Chong had already used a loud voice, successfully making everyone shout.
At this moment, many people opened the door and stood at the door curiously to see what happened. When they heard that the murderer had been caught, everyone became even more curious.
After pulling back the mask of the man in black, everyone except Lin Chong was surprised. No one thought that this usually honest and kind man who always smiled was actually a murderer.
While Lin Chong was putting on his clothes, he called the shopkeeper to report to the police that they had caught the murderer and asked them to come and take him away quickly.
The shopkeeper didn't care to listen to the excitement and hurriedly took the two waiters to the government office.
With Wang Chengen beside him to support him, Lin Chong immediately became more confident. He walked up to the man in black with his hands on his hips and asked with a frown: "You are the one who killed her, right? Why did you kill her?
What are you looking for in her room?"
The man in black turned his head to the other side very arrogantly and did not want to pay attention to him.
Lin Chong couldn't help but sigh, it would be great if Guan Ying was here at this time. Guan Ying must have many ways to let him tell the answer happily.
But facts have proven that the wisdom of the people is infinite. Even if Guan Ying is not around, someone can still think of a way to get the man in black to tell the truth.
Several people escorted him back to Tianzi No. 1 and slammed the door violently, completely ignoring the curious and surprised looks of others outside.
Lin Chong watched the man in black rolling on the ground in pain, and could completely understand what he was feeling at this moment. It was precisely because what he was receiving at this moment was not any other punishment, but Wang Gonggong's unique secret recipe of Thousand Corpses and Ten Thousand Insect Pills.
Lin Chong was once tortured by this thing and rolled on the ground. He wished he could just hit him to death. Occasionally, he would experience the pain of this poisonous attack. Later, when he was kidnapped, he didn't know what he ate to fight poison with poison, and Manager Wang finally became prosperous.
Kindheartedly, I gave him the antidote, and the nightmare ended.
But at this moment, the nightmare of the man in black has just begun. It seems that Manager Wang means that if he doesn't say anything, he plans to leave it alone all night.
In order to prevent him from committing suicide, Jonathan dislocated his hands, feet and jaw, and stood aside with his arms folded, looking at him coldly.
Lin Chong blinked in confusion. He began to regret going on the road with these cruel people. If he offended them one day, he might not even know how he died.
I am no longer the emperor, so I have to be careful when speaking and doing things in the future, but I must not offend these monsters.
Zhou Ze was not worried about Lin Chong at all and watched with great interest.
Finally, the man in black couldn't help but confess. It had only been two hours. Lin Chong looked down upon his professional ethics.
"Look, it doesn't matter if you say it sooner or later. If you had said it earlier, why would you have to suffer all this? You have to be careful about what you say in the future. If we know that what you say is false, it will not be the same as now.
"The prince smiled and patted the man in black's shoulder, which was already soaked with sweat.
Lin Chong clearly saw the man in black shaking, and suddenly felt a little sympathy for him: "You should be honest, Mr. Wang knows a lot. If you want to tell lies to fool him, you will suffer a lot."
.”
The man in black lay exhausted on the ground and gasped, and Jonathan took his chin back.
This man in black is indeed a killer, codenamed Guyan. The task he received was to assassinate a woman living in this inn, so he came to the inn pretending to be a refugee and fled here to find a job.
The salary he wanted was very low, and he was indeed capable of doing a lot of work, so the shopkeeper kept him.
He did it one night as planned.
He knocked on the woman's door on the pretense that he had picked up the guest's belongings, and when she turned around and was defenseless, he stabbed her to death with a nondescript knife taken from the kitchen.
It was only after he killed the woman that he was notified that there was another half of the mission, which was to take away something that the woman was carrying. So he went back to look for it again and again, but only then did he know everything about the woman.
All the relics have been taken away by the officials.
