Chapter 40: The Truth: The Arsonist Doesn't Want to Set Fire, and the Liar Doesn't Want to Lie!
Listening to Lin Feng's words, everyone nodded in agreement.
This rule, the imperial historians who specialize in finding fault with people, are naturally the clearest.
Lin Feng continued: "After noticing that this jade pendant was strange, I made an excuse and asked the jade pendant to come over, thinking if I could see something famous. ”
Wu Minxing said: "So you were ...... at that time Not curious at all? ”
Lin Feng smiled and nodded: "After all, I have to find an excuse, and it would be too unseemly to ask for it directly." ”
Wu Minxing pursed his lips, Sun Fujia and Zhao Fifteen were used to it, when investigating the case, anything Lin Feng said or did should not be taken seriously.
It is highly likely that this was done to get the suspect to let his guard down, or simply to fool everyone.
Lin Feng said: "To be honest, I will find the crumbs of the candle on the jade pendant, and that is a complete windfall - my biggest gain is the information that the jade pendant itself conveys to me." ”
"What's the message?" The best praise never let Lin Feng be cold.
Lin Feng looked at the jade pendant in Wu Minxing's hand and said, "The jade pendant has a very good texture, it is warm and moist, and it is made of fine jade at a glance, this kind of jade is definitely not cheap, right?" ”
Wu Minxing didn't hide it: "It's really expensive, and my few months of money are enough for such a small piece." ”
Lin Feng nodded slightly and continued: "I have inquired about Wu Yushi's comments, and one of them says that Wu Yushi has the style of Wei Gong, is thrifty, and is very simple. ”
"I was curious...... How could the thrifty and simple Wu Yushi spend such a large sum of money to buy such a small piece of jewelry for himself? ”
"Right? Why? Everyone had been completely brought into the rhythm of reasoning by Lin Feng.
As soon as I hear the unanswered questions, I can't wait to ask.
Even Dai Xuan and Wei Zheng stared at Lin Feng without the slightest distraction.
Lin Feng smiled: "If what I expected is very good...... This jade pendant was not bought for Wu Yushi himself. ”
"What?"
"Didn't you buy it for himself?"
Everyone was stunned and hurriedly looked at Wu Minxing.
I saw Wu Minxing looking down at the jade pendant in his hand in a daze, and did not refute Lin Feng.
No doubt...... Lin Feng's reasoning is correct!
Lin Feng continued: "When I was confused, I saw the words on the jade pendant. ”
"The front of the jade pendant reads 'Wencheng Wude', and the reverse side reads 'Healthy and Smooth', which obviously carries the words of expectation and wishes for the future, which makes me even more sure that this is not Wu Yushi's own."
"After all, what middle-aged man in his forties would make people write such words when he bought himself a jade pendant?"
And usually, the words that are so long for are written...... Tends to ......"
Lin Feng looked at Wu Minxing and said slowly: "It's all given to the heirs of the family." ”
"The elders have expectations and wishes for the younger generations, so they will write this kind of words."
"After thinking of this, my attention looked at the rope tied to the jade pendant, and I saw that the rope was red and the size was suitable for a small child."
"All these clues finally let me be sure...... This jade pendant should have been given by Wu Yushi to the heirs of the family. ”
Listening to Lin Feng's deduced the ownership of the jade pendant based on these details, everyone was not only impressed by Lin Feng's meticulous observation, but also couldn't help but look at Wu Minxing, wondering if Lin Feng's inference was correct.
Wu Minxing took a deep breath and was silent for a while before sighing: "Yes, this jade pendant is indeed for my only son, who is only three years old this year. ”
Lin Feng really guessed right again!
Wu Minxing is in his forties this year, and his son is only three years old...... In ancient times, it was considered an old man, right? No wonder he, who has always been simple and thrifty, is willing to spend a few months to buy such a small jade pendant for his son, which loves his son so much.
Lin Feng thought about it and said, "This jade pendant was bought by you for your son with a lot of money, no accident, it should be carried with you all the time when the child was born." ”
"It carries your expectations, and at the same time, jade also raises people, and there is also the idea of avoiding disasters and warding off evil spirits, and you should not leave your children...... But. ”
Lin Feng's voice suddenly changed, and he suddenly looked at Wu Minxing, and said: "The jade pendant that should have been worn by the child has appeared in your hand, and since I saw you, your mental state has been very bad, and you have been holding this jade pendant very nervously, for fear that the jade pendant will be lost." ”
"These many abnormal behaviors made me realize ......"
Lin Feng paused for a moment and said, "Your child, something may be wrong." ”
What?
Wu Minxing's son has a problem?
Are you sure?
The colleagues of the Yushitai all looked at Wu Minxing nervously.
Wu Minxing subconsciously clenched the jade pendant, took a deep breath, and looked at Lin Feng: "Is there anything else?" ”
Lin Feng nodded: "Then I asked people to ask my colleagues who were in the same office room as you, and asked them if they saw you holding a jade pendant during the day...... The result was no. ”
That is to say...... This jade pendant suddenly appeared at night. ”
"But you haven't left the Imperial Tower, how can the jade pendant on your child appear?"
"Think of you setting a fire for no reason...... A speculation slowly emerged in my mind. ”
Lin Feng looked at Wu Minxing and said in a deep voice, "No surprise...... I think you should be like Zheng Yushi, suddenly received a secret letter, but unlike Zheng Yushi's hopeful secret letter, your secret letter is a threatening letter! ”
"The letter should say...... Your children are controlled, if you want your children to live well, listen to them, set fire to the file room at three o'clock in the ugly hour, and must destroy the file of Zhao Deshun's case. ”
"In order for you to believe their words, along with that secret letter, there should be this jade pendant of your child."
"When you saw this jade pendant, you panicked directly...... You are honest and kind by nature, and you don't want to do this, but for the sake of your only child, you can't do anything. ”
Listening to Lin Feng's words, everyone's eyes couldn't help but fall on Wu Minxing, their faces full of shock and surprise.
It was Wei Zheng, whose unsmiling face showed a complicated color, and he couldn't help but say, "Is that really the case?" ”
Wu Minxing sighed, was silent for a long time, and then nodded painfully: "Yes." ”
When everyone saw Wu Minxing nodding, their eyes couldn't help but widen.
They never thought that under Wu Minxing's arson, there would be such a tortuous reason!
He was coerced!
Lin Feng said: "Wu Yushi doesn't want to be used by thieves, but for the sake of the child, he has to do it. ”
"That's why when he was ordered by the thieves to set fires, he only sprinkled the fire oil on the windows and the small half of the table, and did not directly sprinkle the entire file room."
"Because he wanted the flame to burn, and the thieves would see that he had set the fire and thus spare his children...... But he also didn't want to really ruin all the files because of him, so he only kept the flames near the windows...... It is precisely because of this that there is a special situation that we have just seen that is as clear as a one-size-fits-all approach. ”
"I think Wu Yushi should also calculate the time, and once the flames are burned, he will immediately go out and call someone to extinguish the fire...... Unexpectedly, Zheng Yushi discovered the fire one step earlier. ”
Zheng Feng's eyes widened and he said, "That's not right...... I'm a little confused, doesn't it mean that I'm being used and I'm going to be scapegotated? But this is not a thief setting fire at all, but Wu Yushi was forced to set fire......"
"Could it be that the thief wants me to take the sin of Wu Yushi? But he calculated Wu Yushi like this, it didn't seem like he wanted to help Wu Yushi. ”
Lin Feng smiled: "I never said that Zheng Yushi was going to make a scapegoat for arson. ”
"What?"
Zheng Feng was stunned, and everyone else was stunned.
Just listened to Lin Feng and said, "Hasn't Zheng Yushi understood yet?" ”
"The thief gave you so much money, how can he let you go so easily...... It is obviously in their interests to take this opportunity to blackmail you and control you in the future than for you to make a scapegoat. ”
"And you're going to show up at that time...... It's because of the real thief, I never thought that Wu Yushi would use a timing device to set fire. ”
In other words...... The thief's idea was that Wu Yushi had to set fire to it at three o'clock in the ugly hour, and it happened that you appeared near the dossier room at that time and found out the fact that Wu Yushi set the fire......"
"That is to say......"
Lin Feng's gaze swept over everyone, and he said categorically: "Your role is a human witness, a human witness with ironclad evidence, not a scapegoat." ”
Zheng Feng's mouth opened wide.
Everyone else was dumbfounded.
They all thought that they knew the truth about Zheng Feng's coming to the utility room, but they didn't expect that there would be a reversal.
Rao is Dai Xuan and Wei Zheng couldn't help but rub their foreheads, feeling that there was too much information.
Sun Fujia kept taking a deep breath and told himself, don't compare yourself with Lin Feng, just be a witness in the future.
And Zhao Fifteen, dumbfounded, only felt that even if it was the famous Zhuge Kongming, his wisdom was like this, right?
Don't look at my brother with this adoring gaze, my brother is a legend...... Lin Feng looked at Wu Minxing and said, "Knowing this, you can understand why you put your desk so clean." ”
"Your conscience makes you never think of hiding that you are an arsonist, even if I don't find out about you, you will definitely turn yourself in in the end."
"So you know you're never going back to work, so you're going to clean up in advance."
Wei Zheng turned his head violently and looked at Wu Minxing.
Wu Minxing was silent.
"Same ......"
Lin Feng continued: "Why do you use the timer device...... It's because you want to delay your time to be discovered, and you want to know if your son is safe and sound in the end. ”
"Evening ...... Your son is resting alone in a room, and they steal your son silently, and your family will not find out. ”
"But once it's daytime, if your son hasn't returned, your family will definitely come to the Yushitai to look for you as soon as possible, so that you can know if your son is safe and sound."
"So you'll have to wait until daylight."
Everyone stared at Wu Minxing, wondering if all this was really as Lin Feng said.
Then, they saw Wu Minxing let out a long breath with his eyes closed, and then sighed: "If I didn't know that you were in the criminal department last night...... I would really think that everything I do, is under your gaze. ”
True!
And so it really is!
Everything was as Lin Feng said......
The abnormality of the desk, the setting of the timing device, the problem of the jade pendant, the one-size-fits-all scene after the dossier room burned down, and even Zheng Feng's money...... Everything is perfectly formed a logical closed loop.
All the anomalies last night have the most reasonable explanation at this moment!
The truth has finally been revealed.
The arsonist doesn't want to set fires, the liars don't want to lie, and they all have a common behind-the-scenes person behind them who controls everything.
Zhao Wufu felt that his brain was almost out of turn.
Sun Fujia couldn't help but let out a sigh: "Such a calculation...... It's almost comparable to Cuizhu's calculations and Lu'e. ”
Dai Xuan looked at Wei Zheng and said with emotion: "Duke Wei, you are all talents, just three imperial histories, it's such a wonderful drama." ”
Wei Zheng closed his eyes and was silent for a long time before he suddenly looked at Zhou Ran and said sharply: "This official really didn't expect it...... You are so scheming, calculating your colleagues, so vicious! It is a great shame for me to have someone like you in my Yushitai! ”
