After locking up several thieves again, Chen Tianyu and Li Yiting smoked silently in the interrogation room.

Li Yiting glanced at Chen Tianyu several times, but he didn't see any movement from him, and the silence in the early hours of the morning made him a little upset.

"Fourth brother, do you still have any doubts?" Li Yiting finally couldn't help but speak, "If we try it again, I always feel that there is something wrong with this." ”

Chen Tianyu waved his hand: "It doesn't mean much, now it seems that the key person in the whole thing is dumb." As long as the dumb man is brought to justice, I think we will be infinitely closer to the truth. ”

"As long as the dumb man is still in the water village, he has no way to escape. Li Yiting pounded the desk hatefully.

He was a little worried: "I don't know what the situation is on the Jiudao side, fourth brother, do you think I should deal with him, I heard that this dumb man is not small, and Yongkun is not an opponent." ”

"Wait for dawn, Jiudao is not as reckless as Yongkun, I believe there won't be much danger. But if you want to say that he can bring the dumb man back, it is really hanging, and my legs and feet are inconvenient, so you can only go out in person. Chen Tianyu said lightly.

Li Yiting looked a little impatient: "Otherwise, I'll set off now, and there's nothing wrong here anyway." ”

Chen Tianyu was happy: "Could it be that your old master wants to avenge his apprentice?"

Li Yiting couldn't help laughing: "I don't have to be the opponent of this qigong master, I don't dare to overestimate myself." ”

Chen Tianyu suddenly became serious, and he said slowly: "It is imperative to arrest the dumb man, but now there is still something to be seriously discussed." ”

"What's the matter?" Li Yiting said strangely.

Chen Tianyu thought for a moment: "Yiting, you tell me the truth, do you really believe that Fuqi will be the murderer?"

"Uh...... This one. This time it obviously hit Li Yiting's sore spot, and he said for a long time, "I still believe the evidence, now that so much evidence points to Fuqi, I can't help but be emotional." ”

Chen Tianyu shook his head: "Emotion is also a clue, don't forget." Of course, it is effective evidence to speak for the court trial, but in the process of solving the case, certain emotional factors can often guide us to the right result, don't you agree?"

"What you say has to be criticized by some experts as idealism. Li Yiting said helplessly.

Chen Tianyu hit the nail on the head and said: "I and Fuqi are not related, so naturally we will not be affected by external factors, but you are different, you and Fuqi are like brothers, are you sure you are not disturbed by emotions?"

Li Yiting was a little annoyed: "Fourth brother, are you underestimating me too much, how can you say that I have also been engaged in criminal investigation work for more than ten years, and this basic ethics still exists." ”

"Don't worry. Chen Tianyu was calm.

"I'm not worried that you're unprincipled, on the contrary, I'm worried that you're too principled. ”

Li Yiting was stunned for a moment, he seemed to be alert to something.

"It's definitely not okay to be too affectionate in everything, but it's not advisable to be too affectionate at all. Chen Tianyu said calmly.

Li Yiting was not confused: "Fourth brother, what do you mean is that someone wants to take advantage of my principled nature and kill people with a knife?"

"This possibility is not ruled out. Chen Tianyu nodded, "If this assumption is true, then this person behind the scenes must be very familiar with you, both your weaknesses and your strengths." ”

Li Yiting suddenly remembered someone, but he didn't dare to say it, his respect for this person was far beyond the scope of reason.

"Fourth brother, do you have a basis?" he said eagerly.

Chen Tianyu shook his head: "Not at all." ”

"Hey, you can say so eloquently by your instincts, it scares me. Li Yiting smiled bitterly.

Chen Tianyu said slowly: "If you guessed correctly, you should have something to hide from me." And I'm sure it must have happened after returning to Li Village. ”

Li Yiting was secretly shocked in his heart, this godly guy, it was really not easy to hide from him.

"Well, I can only tell you that I do know the secrets of a family, but this matter has nothing to do with the case, so it is inconvenient to tell you. Li Yiting said helplessly.

Chen Tianyu nodded expressionlessly: "If you don't say it, I can guess." Moreover, I speculate that this secret you keep may have something to do with Li Fuqi. ”

A flash of surprise flashed in Li Yiting's eyes, and he was silent.

"You must be curious as to why I was able to guess so accurately. In fact, to put it bluntly, it is very simple, since I came to Li Village, I found that this place is like a paradise, the people who live here are simple and duty-bound, but the same, they are also conformist. Chen Tianyu paused, "Everyone in the village seems to have secrets, whether it's your uncles or inconsequential idlers, etc., they don't seem to be indifferent to anything, and they don't panic at everything, which is not normal." ”

"I thought about it for a long time, but I never figured it out, and I even thought it was caused by isolation. It wasn't until your suspicion of Li Fuqi gradually became apparent that I finally understood the mystery inside. ”

"It turns out that everyone in Li Village doesn't trust each other!" Chen Tianyu concluded.

Li Yiting was surprised and said, "Will it be?" ”

"Of course you don't realize it, you're still the authority. Living in such an environment since childhood, the elders subtly instilled various ideas in you, and it is inevitable that you will unconsciously abide by certain conventional rules. ”

"But what does that mean? Could it be that you want to remind me of something?"

Chen Tianyu smiled: "If you don't say that you are a fan of the authorities, you have already told me the answer just now." That is, you are all keeping a big family secret, and everyone is the same. This perseverance is even in your blood, unaware of it. ”

"Going around and around, it can make me dizzy!" Li Yiting smiled dumbly.

Chen Tianyu didn't smile, he said calmly: "As a criminal investigator, my point of view has not changed, that is, everyone can doubt, no matter how old or young. His words seemed to have another meaning, but I don't know if Li Yiting understood it.

I agree. Your words have also solved my doubts for many years, I said that why am I so stubborn in doing things, it turns out that there is a family gene. Li Yiting was also calm, "You are very reasonable, everything must have cause and effect." Well, I could tell you the truth, but you'll have to keep it a secret for me. ”

"You can also choose not to say it. Chen Tianyu glanced at him.

"Our Li family has a thousand-year-old commitment, and we will be responsible for guarding a valuable cultural relic that has attracted worldwide attention for generations, and I can't disclose what the cultural relics are, but I can tell you clearly that this thing is hidden in the ancestral shrine, because no one can steal it. Li Yiting paused, "Li Fuqi and I are both new guardians. ”

He briefly recounted what Li Qisi had entrusted him with, leaving out only a small number of confidential details.

Chen Tianyu nodded: "What I want to remind you is that you are not afraid of thieves stealing, but you are afraid of thieves worrying about you, you understand this truth, right? A statue of Guanyin will make this group of people hollow out their minds, not to mention an artifact that is hundreds of times more valuable than the statue of Guanyin? This is very likely to be a big conspiracy." ”

"According to you, maybe the murder in the village has something to do with this artifact? "Li Yiting is thorough at one point.

Chen Tianyu sighed and gently patted Li Yiting's shoulder.

"I know you, it's not so much that you are in a hurry to convict Li Fuqi now, but that you are panicking to exonerate your younger brother. ”

Li Yiting touched his chin slightly embarrassed and did not speak.

"I really should have avoided this case. He muttered to himself.

Chen Tianyu shook his head decisively: "On the contrary, this case may only be able to find out the truth by you, although you can solve it according to your own ideas, don't we still have us." ”

Li Yiting glanced at him gratefully: "Fourth brother......"

"Don't sensationalize, we'll just stop you from making mistakes. Chen Tianyu said expressionlessly.

Li Yiting couldn't help laughing: "You dead cripple! Is there such a humble person as you?"
