Chapter 2198

The jailer was stunned and then slapped himself on the forehead.

"Thank you for reminding me! I'll have a good look now so that they won't be bad for you!"

The jailer elder brother, who has wasted many years and is unfamiliar with "business", obviously doesn't know that Lin Mengya's words can be regarded as saving him.

When he ran in step by step, the man was holding the poison and wanted to swallow it.

Fortunately, the elder brother was flexible and robbed him as soon as he came forward.

"You want to commit suicide! Wait, I'll find a rope and tie you up now!"

The movement from inside made her feel a little at ease.

Obviously, since his companions brought the poison, the real murderer behind the scenes naturally hid in a place they could touch at any time.

At that time, the guests in the guest house became the first target.

However, she could not understand that she did not pose a threat to anyone except that her arrival might let one of them leave.

What is the reason that makes them so crazy?

The movement inside soon subsided.

The jailer's eldest brother tied people directly into zongzi. After thinking about it, he tore off each other's clothes and blocked his mouth.

Now, you can't even kill yourself.

After all this, the jailer thought, thanks to her reminder.

In the evening, a soft old quilt was added to Lin Mengya's bed.

"This is made by my mother-in-law. You can use it first."

Facing each other's simple and direct kindness, Lin Mengya smiled and nodded to accept it.

At night, the prison was full of darkness except for a light in the corridor.

She nestled in the warm quilt, thinking about her own thoughts.

Suddenly, a very special feeling made her subconsciously tighten her body.

Someone seemed to be standing outside her cell, watching her.

She turned on the night vision function of the system, but unexpectedly found that there was no one here.

Is it because she is nervous and thinks too much?

But she didn't know that her sight was indeed there, but it was not here, but behind the iron door.

The next day, Cairu came again and brought her something to eat and told some people outside.

He coaxed the jailer's eldest brother away with a pot of wine. While taking things for her, Cairu lowered her voice and replied, "our people have been in the shop and haven't left. There are many more people who want to inquire about the situation these days, which have been blocked back by Lao Li and them one by one. As for Lao Li, he also sneaked out several times. We didn't send anyone to follow according to your instructions."

Lin Mengya nodded. Now the situation is quite complicated.

Lao Li belongs to the chain of Xiancheng, and her harm is related to those businessmen and the sheriff.

With her as the dot, the three forces are completely mixed together.

"Very good. After going back this time, Lao Li should begin to test you. Don't worry. Pretend to inadvertently disclose some of our information to him. Remember, we must be three false and seven true."

From the situation posted by Lao Li and them, the people behind them should often use this method to inquire about their outsiders.

In that case, if you say it too perfectly without any loopholes, it will arouse suspicion.

Therefore, the people behind the scenes will believe the truth and falsehood.

As soon as they finished speaking, the elder brother of the jailer hurried over.

"Big sister, someone is coming today. Hurry up!"

Cairu had no time to say anything else, so she was taken away by the jailer.

Before long, the sheriff, who looked honest, brought people in.

Seeing the things in the cell, he didn't say much, but ordered the jailer to open the door of the cell.

"Yes, sir."

She got up and saluted calmly.

In fact, she also thought it was time for the sheriff to come.

"What else do you want to tell me about this murder?"

Lin Mengya shook her head and said, "I have nothing to say. I believe the adult's judgment will certainly return my innocence."

The sheriff stared at the woman in front of him, but then said tentatively, "I have seen all the documents you left in the merchant's office. Let me ask you, are you really just a tourist who sells spices for a living?"

In these words, there was a certain severity.

But Lin Mengya had nothing to feel guilty about. Instead, she smiled at the sheriff.

"My Lord is really funny. Naturally, I can't just sell spices. I sell leather goods, mountain goods and local specialties. But I have one characteristic. I only sell the most popular ones. In this way, I can make money back in the shortest time."

It seemed that she was really not guilty, and the sheriff was even more strange.

"Since you only sell these things, why would someone try to kill you?"

She looked confused when she mentioned this.

To say her true identity, forget it. Anyway, there are too many people who have offended in recent years. There are too many lice to bite.

But as a small businessman, she was cautious step by step. She almost didn't put a sign around her neck, which said "I'm an honest man".

"Report back to your excellency. In fact, the villain also wondered. You said that the real murderer behind the scenes didn't stare at others. Why did he just come to embarrass me? Is it because I'm a woman and easy to bully?"

She is smart and answers questions with questions.

At this time, the sheriff not only failed to reach the answer he wanted, but also went around her.

"Well, I don't know yet. But if you want to start from something, you'd better tell me the truth. In this way, I can find out this morning."

She thought about it and said, "it's not a clue. I remember a strange thing."

"Oh?"

She pretended to be distressed and said: "When we were in the guest house, the spice owner falsely accused me of secretly changing his spice. However, after that, I asked the shopkeeper of the guest house. Besides me, there were two businessmen who specialized in selling spices who also lived here. At that time, the spice owner was also there. I wondered why it was me instead of the former one What about the two? "

Although she was talking about herself, she was deliberately reminding the other party of a key issue.

If the spice merchant was just for blackmail, why did he let the first two go alone.

In addition, although the guest house is the place where most of them will choose to stay, except for a few stall businessmen, most people will move to the shop after renting the shop.

After all, the profit has been pitiful. Living in a guest house is also a cost. Naturally, everyone can save.

Obviously, the sheriff was aware of the problem, frowned and said, "it's really suspicious. I'll let people find out."

"Well, the little woman thanks the sheriff."

She bowed with gratitude.

The magistrate's questions can only be held in his heart at the moment.

He can see clearly. Even if he asks, the other party will take words and block him back gently and skillfully.

This girl is clever.

Remembering that it was written in her document that she had followed her relatives since childhood, I didn't have much doubt in my heart.

It's impossible to beat in the world without some tricks and means.

Now, there is no entanglement.

"This is my duty. You are here to wait. I will find out the truth."

"Yes."

Watching the sheriff leave, the corners of her mouth picked up slightly.

Now the sheriff is going to keep an eye on the guest house. It must be that the person behind the scenes has no secure life to live.

Oh, calculate her? First we have to see if they have that life!

The days in prison were not hard. Cairu came every day these days and even brought her some books to relieve boredom.

The elder brother of the jailer is familiar with them. He is happy every day waiting for Cairu to come, or bring him a pot of wine or some food made by herself.

Lin Mengya can see that brother jailer is a good man. He is too lonely here. He just wants to talk to someone every day.

"The Sheriff has summoned several caravans that settled in the guest house that day. Several of them wanted to escape at night, but they were caught back."

"Why didn't you see come here?"

Cairu looked around and said in a low voice, "when we caught them, they were said to be fine, but they all fell to the ground and died without taking a few steps. According to the news from our people, people died with seven orifices bleeding, probably poisoned."

She nodded and remembered the poison brought by the man's companion that day.

When the poison is sent, it is indeed like this.

"And then?"

"Then the sheriff was very angry, and the matter really hit his bottom, so the sheriff ordered all the people who were there at that time to return to the guest house and not leave there."

The news surprised Lin Mengya.

Although she didn't have deep contact with the sheriff, she was not a faint official.

He must have done it for his own reason.

When Cairu left, she was closing her eyes, so it was rare for someone to interrogate her.

Lin Mengya looked at people. When she saw that it was really the sheriff's men, she was slightly relieved.

"My Lord, where are you taking me?"

The head did not return and said, "you'll know when you arrive. Let's go. Adults are still waiting."

But she didn't expect to arrive at the guest house again.

Besides those caravans, her buddies and Cairu were also among them.

They were also surprised to see her.

The sheriff was standing in the center of the yard. She walked over and saluted, "Bai Jing has seen your excellency."

The other party nodded, "now that you're here, stand where you should stand."

At the moment, Lin Mengya is even more confused.

"What does your excellency mean?"
