Chapter 1179: Breaking the Game
Seeing that Lin Xin's expression gradually became a little displeased, beads of sweat flowed out of the ruffian's face, obviously it was the middle of winter, and in this transparent hall, he should feel the cold, but he couldn't detect the temperature, and he was only scared.
The ruffian knew that if he couldn't say what Lin Xin wanted, he was afraid that he would really have to go to Jinyiwei's dungeon for a few days, and he definitely didn't want this kind of thing.
Those who enter the Jinyi Guard, even if they are innocent, have to take off a layer of skin. A person like him, who has lost his body since he was a child, goes to Jinyiwei to be punished again, but he is afraid that his life will be gone.
After thinking about it, the things he had done in the past few days, except in the casino or in the brothel, thinking that he suddenly changed his words, and then said: "Four or five days ago, I teamed up with a few brothers and robbed a rich businessman. ”
"Just robbery!?"
Lin Xin raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Didn't you do anything else?" ”
"No, no."
The ruffian clapped his hands and explained: "We are just a few street gangsters, doing some tricks and abductions, and this dare really makes us kill, how dare we?" Besides, we will seek wealth and not harm people's lives. ”
"Who do you remember robbing?"
"Naturally, it is my own, I heard that it is a rich businessman from Jiangnan, he just came to the capital a few days ago, he chartered this Huanxiang Building, we also saw that he made a generous move, thinking that this person must be rich, so he had the idea of robbing money. Follow him all the way, come out of Huanxiang Building, find a secluded place along the way, knock him unconscious, and steal all his money. ”
The ruffian said as he spoke, "But this rich merchant is really, and he has nothing of value on him." The things on the body were added together, and they were only exchanged for ten taels of silver, and I didn't know if it was the pawnshop's courtiers who saw that we didn't look like good people and wanted to eat black. It's still really worthless, anyway, there are four of us, and after doing this, one of us will share five taels of silver. ”
Lin Xin nodded, listened carefully to the man's complaining words, and corrected the little mistakes in his analysis.
"Since there are only five taels of silver, it is not enough for you to spend four or five days drinking."
Lin Xin smiled meaningfully, making this scoundrel feel creepy for an instant.
The scoundrel hurriedly said: "The next day, there was suddenly an extra fifty taels of silver tickets on the table at my house, and my brothers also had them at home." With the silver ticket came over there was a note, there were only four words on the note, I asked, the literate Xiucai, it was written that he had left the capital. ”
At this point, a smile appeared on his face, and he continued: "We don't know what we did, and we got fifty taels of silver for nothing, but this is definitely enough for us to live a profligate life outside the city. So the four of us left through the gates and went to have fun. ”
Lin Xin smiled, finally sorted out the truth of the matter, and said to the servant: "When this is the case, don't you have anything to say?" ”
"What did you say, my lord? The child really doesn't understand. ”
Lin Xin sighed and said, "It seems that the prison cell of Jingzhao Mansion is too good, and your lucky heart has not passed at all." ”
Lord Lin glared at Lin Xin, wanting to refute a few words, but finally held back, it should be the end of solving the case at this time, but you can't disturb Lin Xin at this time.
Lin Xin pointed to the scoundrel and said to the servant, "You gave the silver in their hands." ”
"My lord, why do I give them money because I am not related to them?"
The servant's forehead also began to break out in a cold sweat, and Lin Xin continued with a smile: "First, it is to keep them out of the capital for a few days. If they don't leave, how will your plan be implemented? ”
After that, Lin Xin no longer asked the servant, but said to himself: "Your layout, it is really ingenious, first let people disguise themselves as rich businessmen in Jiangnan, and then squander them in the capital, which is also true, it is a lot of blood, and finally kill the rich businessmen in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and blame the rich people."
Report the lost property to the government, and even if you can't find it, you can get compensation from the murderer, and these things will naturally go to you, a loyal servant.
As for why, you didn't kill them all, and you probably still have a mind, even if this matter is exposed. I'm looking for some of them to be scapegoats.
It seems like you've done it many times. I said that I was also born in Jiangnan, and I know that there are people with heads and faces in Jiangnan, even if they are separated by one or two counties, I have never heard of this person, how can this be from Jiangnan? ”
As soon as Lin Xin finished saying this, the servant immediately said: "These are just the speculations of adults, not to mention that there are so many people in that place in Jiangnan, how can adults know all of them?" ”
Lin Xin shook his head with a smile, and then said, "Since I was thirteen years old, I have traveled to study in the Jiangnan area, and how many people have I met? Therefore, I concluded that this deceased was definitely not from Jiangnan, but just a farmer you hired on the way to the capital.
What's more, this person has calluses in his hands, how can he be pampered, a child of a family. Of course, the most important thing is that I have the ability to remember what I saw and heard a few years ago. ”
The servant didn't expect that he would be planted in the end, and he was planted on a hairy boy, but at this time, as long as he couldn't come up with evidence, he could also fight, so he said: "What the adults said, it's rude, my lord is self-made, and he has naturally done farm work since he was a child. ”
"You say you started from scratch, but you can't even tell what your family is doing, do you want to continue?"
Lin Xin only felt that it would be meaningless to continue talking, even if Lin Xin couldn't come up with any evidence for a while, as long as he went to the hometown he said to check, the matter would be clear, but it would just take a little more effort.
The servant's face was pale, and he knew that the general situation on his side had gone, and he couldn't help but be annoyed and said, "Now I have planted it." But I want to ask, how did you get suspicious of me? ”
Lin Xin glanced at the servant and said: "Your cultivation is not worthy of this businessman, it is too much higher, if your master is really a child of a family, then it is barely reasonable, but I also said it, most of the people over there in the south of the Yangtze River, I know, I have not heard of your family, and the address you said, I also have the impression that it is not a place where the rich live." What's more, with your wisdom, it may make more sense for you to be a self-made businessman. ”
The servant didn't expect that this was the reason, and shook his head self-deprecatingly, only feeling that providence made people.
"Take these two men into custody pending trial."
Lord Lin finally had a chance to interject, and immediately ordered the officials of Jingzhao Mansion to say to Lin Xin, "Well, it's a good job. ”
