Chapter Eighty-Seven: I Need Your Help
"Impossible." Su Zhou said affirmatively, because he believed in the proprietress .
"Although she didn't tell me personally, her words revealed herself."
Without waiting for Su Zhou to ask, Su Shi continued: "Obviously, three people walked out of the drunken country, and one of them also carried the other two people away, so this situation will more or less attract the attention of others, but the strange thing is that everyone only remembers the person who jumped into the river, and does not mention the other two people, isn't it strange?" ”
Su Zhou nodded.
"So I made this assumption that the middle-aged man did not drink at all, but wandered leisurely through the streets like everyone else, but when he walked to the back door of the drunken country, he took a sip of wine, spilled the rest of the wine on himself, pretended to be drunk, and then rushed into the drunken country, so that no one noticed the man."
"Although he was carried out by two people and left the drunken country, but when he got out of the drunken country, the three of them should have immediately parted ways, and the person who pretended to be drunk jumped into the Nghe An River,"
Su Zhou smiled: "You still haven't told me why you think of me." ”
"Because if my speculation is correct, then the hostess is lying. Because she said that she saw two people carrying the middle-aged man towards the crowd, and then the middle-aged man broke free from the restraints of the two and jumped into the Nghe An River. ”
"Why would the hostess lie?" Su Shi looked at Su Zhou.
Su Zhou sighed: "Of course someone told her to lie. ”
"When I learned that the proprietress was taking care of the orphans of the border soldiers, another suspicion was naturally solved, and it was natural to think of the eldest brother."
"What's the doubt?"
Su Shi sighed: "With the business methods of the proprietress, it can't be supported for half a year by being drunk, but it can actually live until now, so there must be someone behind it, and this person except for the eldest brother, I can't think of anyone else who would do such a stupid thing." ”
Su Zhou was silent for a while, because every inference Su Shi made was correct, as if he had seen it with his own eyes, but Su Zhou was full of doubts about his behavior today.
So he couldn't help but ask, "When did you find that handkerchief?" ”
"While tidying up your clothes at the door of a drunken country."
"But you didn't take it out and look at it at the time."
Su Shi shook his head: "No." ”
"Why?" Su Zhou asked curiously.
Anyone who stepped on such a strange thing would have chosen to immediately check if there was any secret in the handkerchief.
But Su Shi didn't, and didn't seem to care that there was an inexplicable handkerchief in his arms.
"One, I don't really believe in coincidences, and this happened too coincidentally."
Su Shi happened to come to Yi'an Fang, and happened to appear in the drunken country, and except for Su Shi, there were no guests at the table, and what was even more coincidental was that Lin Mo also went to the toilet at that time, and Su Shi was the only one in the entire drunken country.
As long as one of the episodes does not happen, it is impossible for this handkerchief to reach Su Shi's arms.
If there were other guests in the drunken country, maybe someone would have helped the drunk down a long time ago, if Lin Mo didn't go to the toilet, he would definitely stop the drunk.
"If there are too many coincidences in a thing, it seems to me that someone must have arranged it. In that case, I would like to think about the purpose of his arrangement. ”
The purpose was naturally to hope that Su Shi would look at the handkerchief.
"Although I didn't know that it was your arrangement at the time, but now that I know the purpose, of course I won't let the people behind the scenes succeed."
So Su Shi not only did not check the handkerchief, but found out the whereabouts of the drunkard.
This investigation found many flaws, and when Su Shi learned about their background from the mouths of that group of children, all the doubts were explained.
"And the second?" Su Zhou asked.
"The second is that I don't want that handkerchief to affect my judgment."
When Su Shi knew that he had an extra handkerchief in his arms, he naturally knew that there must be a secret hidden on this handkerchief.
After reading this handkerchief, I will inevitably think and be distracted, and I will ignore some other obvious clues.
Su Zhou looked at Su Shi in surprise, this time Su Shi's performance made him breathtaking.
Not only did he bring the drunk back to life with a single move, but he easily deduced his entire plan, and more importantly, Su Shi was not only very smart, but also able to calm down.
The reason why Su Zhou wanted to arrange for someone to make the illusion of jumping into the river to commit suicide was to create an urgent and strange atmosphere, prompting Su Shi to check the handkerchief.
And in this atmosphere, Su Shi's reaction when he saw the handkerchief was undoubtedly the most real, and Su Zhou just wanted to know Su Shi's most real reaction at that time, so as to determine one thing.
But when Su Shi learned that someone had jumped into the river, his reaction was beyond everyone's expectations, and instead of checking the handkerchief, he wandered around the street.
Although Su Zhou now knew the reason why he did this, Su Shi's behavior at that time made them full of doubts.
"And you also broke up Lin Mo because you knew that he was also in this plan?"
Su Shi sighed and said, "If it weren't for Lin Mo, how could so many things happen today, if I want to doubt someone, Lin Mo will naturally bear the brunt, but I also know that with Lin Mo's mind, he can't come up with this kind of plan." ”
Speaking of this, Su Shi couldn't help but joke: "Although this plan is not very good. ”
Su Zhou didn't seem to hear this, and the expression on his face didn't change at all, because this plan was not something he came up with.
He's just executing.
When he got this plan, he still thought that this plan was seamless, but after Su Shi said this, he suddenly found that this plan was indeed full of flaws.
At this time, Su Shi suddenly asked very seriously: "Xiuniang shouldn't be part of the plan." ”
Because it was purely a very accidental act for him to find Xiuniang, if this behavior could be judged by Su Zhou, it would be too terrible.
Su Zhou shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Because I really didn't expect you to use such a stupid method." ”
The hint on the handkerchief was already obvious, but at this time, Su Shi couldn't understand it, which couldn't help but make Su Zhou a little disappointed.
However, in the end, Su Shi still found the Red Plum Pavilion, but it just made him wait a few more hours.
Su Shi suddenly asked: "Big brother, you did so many things today just to lure me to the Red Plum Pavilion, should you tell me now, why did you lead me to the Red Plum Pavilion?" ”
Su Zhou's expression also became serious at this time, and he said slowly: "You should know that I won't do something boring. ”
Su Shi nodded.
"And I'm doing it because I need your help."
