Gao Shun listened to Lin Feng's words, and opened his mouth several times to say something, but in the end, he closed his mouth weakly.

He couldn't argue with it.

Lin Feng already had the paper he wrote in his hand, this was ironclad evidence, even if he denied it, it would have no effect.

Looking at Gao Shun, who lowered his head and no longer argued, Lin Feng said slowly: "You are too confident in yourself, you think that you have left no clues, and it is impossible for us to find you, so you didn't think about hiding what you wrote at all, otherwise, it would be really not easy to convict you." ”

Gao Shun bit his dry lips with his teeth, was silent for a moment, and finally spoke: "Who would have thought that you would have such the ability to find me from so many people in Chang'an City based on a piece of paper and a few words?" Lin Feng, don't be complacent! You're just lucky to have met such a strange person as Sun Fujia, otherwise you wouldn't be able to help me at all! ”

Even if he had listened to all the processes of Sun Fujia finding him, he still couldn't accept it, as a person who was even a beginner in writing, he couldn't understand Sun Fujia's ability at all.

Sun Fujia glanced at Gao Shun, who was very unwilling, and said calmly: "This official was literate at the age of three, and he never gave up the scroll in his hand since then...... Of course, you may think that you are unlucky to meet me. ”

"But Gao Shun, don't forget...... This official has found you, and Lin Sizheng has found you, it is completely irrelevant, even if there is no official this official, Lin Sizheng has already found you. ”

"And as long as Zide confirms you, do you think he really can't convict you by other means? You don't think you're really seamless, do you? It is true that what you do inside the palace is hidden, but what about you outside? ”

Sun Fujia's words were like a sharp knife, piercing Gao Shun's heart: "You didn't only come to commit murder in the middle of the night, you disguised yourself in the palace for a whole day...... For the whole day, you're out there. ”

"You are a craftsman who needs to work every day, and you disappear for no reason, do you think you can explain it? You may be telling the public that you are sick and need to rest...... But you're not the only one in your house, you also have your old mother and your wife and children at home, and you disappeared all day, do you think they won't know? And they know about your disappearance, do you think they can hide it under the cold interrogation of the yamen? ”

Gao Shun listened to Sun Fujia's words, his body shook violently, his eyes suddenly widened, and his face turned pale and hideous: "You ......"

Sun Fujia looked at Gao Shun, whose face had changed greatly, and said: "This is just the way that the official can think of, and who doesn't know that Zide's ability to judge the case far exceeds that of the official?" So you can't even pass the official level, do you think you have a chance to pass the Zide level? ”

"You think Zide caught you because Zide was lucky to have me help him, but in fact, you can't escape without me...... In fact, the moment Zide finds you through the file, your result is already doomed, it is nothing more than the difference between a moment earlier and a moment later. ”

Gao Shun's pupils beat violently, and at some point, his whole body was already soaked in cold sweat.

He subconsciously raised his head to look at Lin Feng, and saw that Lin Feng was looking at him calmly, and said, "You think your uncle is wronged, so in order to complete your uncle's last words, you dug out Wang Shaoqing's heart, and wanted to see if Wang Shaoqing's heart was red or black." ”

"And Zhou County's order searched the entire palace to the sky, and did not find Wang Shaoqing's lost heart, if my expectation is correct...... That heart should have been taken by you to your uncle's grave, right? You should be trying to comfort your uncle's spirit in heaven with this heart. ”

"So, now that the official has asked people to look for your uncle's grave, do you think the official can find that heart?"

Gao Shun subconsciously took a step back, and he looked at Lin Feng with wide eyes: "You...... You ......"

As soon as Lin Feng saw Gao Shun's reaction, he knew that his judgment was correct.

He said calmly: "Gao Shun, the difficulty you have in this case is not at all how hidden you are and how difficult it is to find evidence to prove the facts of your crime...... Your difficulty is how to find you in the millions of people in Chang'an City, as long as you are found, you have done so much in this case, why is it difficult to find evidence? ”

"Of course, it takes a lot of time to verify these things, and what I lack most now is time, so Sun Langzhong's help makes me so happy, because Sun Langzhong directly asked me to subtract the verification process, and I can directly convict you."

Lin Feng's words were like an unbearable mountain, directly crushing Gao Shun.

Gao Shun, who was originally burly and straight, at this moment, directly stiffened his body, he wanted to hide the fact that his hands hidden in the sleeves of Mai were trembling, but the result was that he could hide his hands, but he couldn't hide the fact that his whole body was trembling.

His mental defense had been completely defeated by Lin Feng.

"You know that I am not from the palace through my disguise of Wang Jian, and then find my scope based on this...... If I want to avenge my uncle, I can only do this, so this is the will of God, and God destined me to not escape this fate. Gao Shun said in a hoarse voice.

"Who told you that this official has no other clues to prove that you are not from the palace?"

"What?"

Gao Shun was stunned for a moment, and then he saw Lin Feng take out something from his arms, Gao Shun looked carefully, and found that Lin Feng was holding a very small ball of twine in his hand.

"What is this?" Gao Shun couldn't help but ask.

Lin Feng said slowly: "The ...... that this official found on the ground of the ice vault"

"That ball of twine!?" The housekeeper suddenly remembered the ball of twine that Lin Feng had found in the freezer at that time.

Lin Feng nodded, his gaze swept over the coarse linen clothes worn by Gao Shun, and said, "I think, when you dig out Wang Shaoqing's heart, you should have taken off your coat and threw it on the ground, right?" You may have deliberately thrown your clothes far away for fear that blood would get on your clothes and make you suspicious, but you shouldn't have expected that there is a thin layer of ice on the floor of the freezer, and ice is sticky to anything that falls on it. ”

"So, when you're done with everything and take away your clothes, you don't notice...... The twine on your clothes is left behind by the ice on the ground. ”

Lin Feng retracted his gaze and looked at the small ball of twine on his fingers, and said slowly: "The palace is the mansion of the fourth-grade master, even if the clothes of the people inside, they will not be coarse linen, not to mention that their clothes are uniform, there is no way to have this kind of twine ball left...... Therefore, even if there is no such thing as you disguising Wang Shaoqing, this official will still be suspicious of people outside the palace. ”

Gao Shun listened to Lin Feng's words, his mouth couldn't help but open wide, he hurriedly looked down at his clothes, and saw that there were many twine balls on his ordinary coarse linen clothes, and he didn't know that there was such a small twine ball left in the freezer.

"So, you don't have to complain."

Lin Feng carefully put the twine ball in his hand back into his arms, and said, "You will be found, it has nothing to do with the will of heaven, you blame the heavens and the earth, why haven't you thought about blaming yourself?" Again, if people don't know what to do, there is no perfect sin in the world, and from the moment you commit the crime, you should have the consciousness of being found. ”

Gao Shun's hands were clenched into fists, his nails were buckled into the flesh, blood dripped down his fingertips, he lowered his head, his face was hideous and painful, but in the end, he ...... He finally let go of his hands, as if he had lost his soul, and said weakly: "I thought I was so seamless, you couldn't find me...... Now I know that my idea is so ridiculous, and what I thought was seamless, actually left so many clues, and it was so full of loopholes. ”

Zhou Helin listened to Gao Shun's words, and couldn't help sighing in his heart.

Is Gao Shun's idea ridiculous?

He didn't think it was ridiculous, after all, he had spent five days without finding any clues about Gao Shun.

Gao Shun seems to be full of loopholes, just because the person investigating the case is Lin Feng, and if he is someone else, it may really be as seamless as Gao Shun said.

The more he learned about the clues that Lin Feng had, and the more he listened to Lin Feng's reasoning, the more powerless Zhou Helin became, how could he have a chance to win compared with such a Lin Feng?

has the same idea as Zhou Helin, as well as Gao Cheng, Gao Zheng originally wanted to find fault with Lin Feng, but now, he also feels very powerless...... I thought that Lin Feng was just lucky to seize the only opportunity and find Gao Shun, but now it seems that even if Lin Feng misses this opportunity, it will not affect the final result.

This is not a person who relies on luck to investigate the case, so if he wants to find fault with Lin Feng, he finds that it is even more difficult than asking him to investigate this case, and he is desperate.

Lin Feng listened to Gao Shun's words of admitting everything, looked at Gao Shun, whose psychological defense line had been completely defeated, and pursued after him: "I know that you are a person who digs your heart, not a murderer, so Gao Shun, I can give you a chance, if you are willing to confess who your accomplice is, and who is the person who really killed Wang Shaoqing, this official can give you a lenient punishment." ”

Hearing Lin Feng's words, everyone hurriedly withdrew from the shock just now, and hurriedly looked at Gao Shun.

Gao Shun was also stunned for a moment, and he looked at Lin Feng unexpectedly: "How do you know that I am not a murderer?" ”

Lin Feng's eyes looked at Gao Shun calmly, and the dark and deep gaze couldn't help but give Gao Shun the illusion that all his secrets had been seen through, which made him subconsciously look away and not dare to look at Lin Feng.

Lin Feng said lightly: "This official has already deduced from Zhou County's order that the real murderer was in the room where Wang Shaoqing lived alone, that is, Wang Shaoqing who was killed in this room, and also deduced that the real murderer was the one who temporarily changed his plan and used the bowstring to kill." ”

"It takes time to take off the bowstring, if the person who came to see Wang Shaoqing late at night was an outsider, it would be impossible for Wang Shaoqing to give the real murderer time to take off the bowstring, not to mention that the real murderer was strangled behind Wang Shaoqing Wang Shaoqing, if it wasn't someone Wang Shaoqing was familiar with, how could Wang Shaoqing give him a chance to go behind him?"

"So, only people in the palace can do this...... You can't do it. ”

Gao Shun pursed his lips and did not speak.

Lin Feng glanced at him and continued: "Although digging out the heart is also a crime, after all, it is different from murder, your guilt is far lighter than the real murderer!" Therefore, if you are willing to take the initiative to confess the real culprit and tell what you know, the official can consider giving you a lighter punishment. ”

Gao Shun pursed his lips and hesitated for a moment, then shook his head, he said: "He helped me avenge, I can't betray him, you will die of this heart." ”

"Revenge for you?"

When Lin Feng heard this, he laughed directly as if he had heard such a funny joke: "Gao Shun, this official thinks that you should not be a stupid person, how can you have such a stupid idea?" ”

"What!?" Gao Shun was stunned.

Lin Feng said: "You don't really think that the real murderer is kind and wants to help you take revenge, right?" ”

"Are you related to someone? Are you a confidant with him? Did you know the real murderer before? ”

Facing Lin Feng's three consecutive questions, Gao Shun shook his head completely subconsciously.

Lin Feng sneered: "You are not related to others, why should people risk cutting off your head to help you avenge?" Not to mention that this person is still a person in the palace, and he has always been taken care of by Wang Jian, why is he willing to betray Wang Jian for you? ”

"I ......" Gao Shun's eyes were stiff, and he couldn't help but say: "He is for conscience, and he also has a grudge against Wang Jian." ”

"Conscience?"

Lin Feng's eyes flashed, and he said, "This official understands...... When the real murderer found you, did he tell you that by chance, he heard Wang Shaoqing talk about your uncle's case, saying that Wang Shaoqing deliberately wrongfully killed your uncle, and when he learned the truth, his heart was uneasy, and his sense of justice exploded, so he went to you to tell the truth? At the same time, he also told you that he and Wang Shaoqing also have a grudge, and he also wants to seek revenge on Wang Shaoqing, so he took the initiative to join forces with you to deal with Wang Shaoqing? ”

Gao Shun listened to Lin Feng's speculation, and couldn't help but look at Lin Feng with a shocked look: "You...... How do you know so clearly? ”

"Huh! If the real murderer doesn't say that, will you believe him? Will join forces with him? ”

Lin Feng's dark eyes flashed with Dao essence, and he sighed: "The real murderer is really calculating, a righteous and kind, and has an excellent reason to tell you the truth!" One of them also has a grudge, and he has the best basis for joining forces with you to kill! In this case, you have the same goals as him and are naturally willing to believe in him. ”

"You will even be grateful to him, for telling you the truth, for being willing to give you a chance to take revenge...... But! ”

Lin Feng's voice suddenly changed, he looked at Gao Shun, and said in a deep voice: "You don't know, when you believe all this, you have already stepped into the trap of the real murderer!" ”

"Do you think the real murderer wants to take revenge on you? No! The real murderer simply asks you to help him complete his murderous plan! Meantime...... Push you before us and make you responsible for all the murders he has committed! That is to say......"

Lin Feng looked at Gao Shun with a look of disbelief, and said, "He doesn't treat you as a companion at all, he just treats you as a tool that can be used, and...... The ultimate scapegoat! ”

"What!?"

Gao Shun shook his head vigorously, he didn't believe Lin Feng's words at all: "Impossible! You're talking nonsense! He's thinking about me everywhere, he's covering up all my tracks, he's not what you say he's like at all! ”

"Not what I said? Thinking about you everywhere? ”

Lin Feng sneered: "Okay, let me ask you a few questions!" ”

"First, you said that he was thinking about you, why didn't he let you come earlier to familiarize yourself with the environment of the palace? Why did you come to familiarize yourself with the environment a few days before you started? Couldn't he have imagined that you would be easily suspicious when you arrived so closely? ”

"If you can come to get acquainted with the palace environment in a month or even half a year or even earlier, the official can tell you that the official basically can't find you, so far ago, maybe the people in the palace are about to forget you as a little person, how can the official find you?"

"I ......" Gao Shun said: "He actually didn't expect to do it so early, just in time for Wang Jian to live alone when he was sick, such a good opportunity, we didn't want to let it go, so we took action." ”

"Just in time for Wang Jian to be sick and live alone?"

Lin Feng laughed and said, "Gao Shun, do you believe that Wang Jian's illness is really an accident?" ”

"When you came to the palace to do it, didn't you notice that the whole process was extraordinarily smooth? Is this the smoothness of the unexpected rush of action? ”

"I ......" Gao Shun opened his mouth, but this time he didn't open his mouth to refute again, he really didn't think about whether the process of action was too smooth before, and at this moment, after Lin Feng reminded him, he realized that the action was indeed too smooth, not to mention that there was no danger, not even a little accident and no thrill.

It really doesn't look like impromptu preparation can do it.

"Second!"

Seeing that Gao Shun didn't speak, Lin Feng continued: "You said that he thought about you and helped you cover up all traces...... Then I want to ask you, what's going on with this piece of paper? ”

Lin Feng raised the piece of paper in his hand that had been burned to the point that only a small piece was left, and he said, "I can't think of any reason for you to write leisurely while pretending to be Wang Shaoqing, so this can only be the real murderer who asked you to write...... You don't have to worry about what the content is, you don't have to think about what this piece of paper is for, I just want to ask you...... Don't the real culprits know that once this piece of paper is not completely destroyed, once it falls into our hands, we will have evidence pointing directly at you? ”

Lin Feng didn't explicitly say that this was a letter to Wang San, he still had some other thoughts about Wang San, and he didn't want to expose Wang San for the time being, so he deliberately omitted the content of the letter and only said the handwriting itself.

"Not to mention that you are still a beginner in writing, you have no way to imitate other people's handwriting, and there is no way to deliberately change your own handwriting, so as long as you write the words, it will be very clear to you!"

Lin Feng stared at Gao Shun's eyes and said in an extremely oppressive tone: "Gao Shun, you ask yourself, will the real murderer know the danger of this piece of paper to you?" And you haven't thought about it, why does the real murderer have to let you write it, why doesn't he write it himself? ”

Gao Shun was already sweating profusely unconsciously, his lips were dry, and he couldn't help but say: "He said that his handwriting is known to other people......"

"Everyone else knows his handwriting, so he asked you to write it? Is there no one else in this world who can write except you? ”

Lin Feng's words were as piercing as fingernails scraping iron sheets in Gao Shun's ears: "You can say that he is afraid that the content will be discovered by others, then he can find someone to write it separately, as long as different people write different parts, they can't do anything if they want to know the complete content, right?" He can even go to a newly literate child to write, so that he has no worries...... But he didn't, he just asked you to write! And in the end, this piece of paper fell into my hands and became ironclad evidence pointing to you! ”

The corners of Lin Feng's mouth were hooked, and his tone was sarcastic: "Gao Shun, even so, do you still think he is helping you?" Do you still think he helped you hide your traces? ”

"I ...... I ......" Gao Shun opened his mouth weakly and did not continue.

He recalled the circumstances of the letter, when the real murderer asked him to write the letter, and clearly told him that there would be no danger, and that the letter was only written to make them safer.

But now, this letter has fallen into Lin Feng's hands, and it has become ironclad evidence pointing to him...... This letter did not make him safer, but became his death knell, which is completely different from what the real murderer said at the time.

How does this make him trust the other person again?

Seeing Gao Shun's already chaotic inner expression, Lin Feng added the last fire: "You may not know what the real murderer did in order to escape our investigation...... He set multiple traps and made a scapegoat for him to get away with it. ”

"It's just that the scapegoat is so clean that it's easy for us to find out that he was framed by the real murderer...... So this scapegoat did not protect the real culprit. ”

"But what about you?"

Gao Shun raised his head violently and looked at Lin Feng.

saw Lin Feng looking directly at him: "You participated in this case, you dug your heart, you disguised Wang Shaoqing, and we also have your handwritten paper as ironclad evidence...... If the official does not determine that the real murderer must be someone from the palace, if the official does not determine that there are two murderers...... Do you think you, the scapegoat, have any chance of escaping? Do you think anyone will believe you if you say you're not a murderer? ”

Gao Shun only felt a chill that instantly enveloped his whole body, and he couldn't help but say, "I...... I ......"

Lin Feng looked at Gao Shun, who couldn't say anything, and gave the final fatal blow, he said coldly: "You think your uncle has been wronged, so you want to take revenge...... But the result? You were used as a scapegoat by the real murderer, you didn't really kill but you had to bear the responsibility of killing, you did it because your relatives were wronged, but in the end you ended up being wronged! Gao Shun, is this the result you want? ”

It was like a thunderbolt striking Gao Shun, and he instantly froze in place, silent for a long time.
