Orphan girl reborn: Why are you clinging to me?

"Why are you asking about my uncle suddenly?"

Si Yan said absently, rubbing his neck that was stiff from sleeping for too long.

"When I was young, my uncle was quite normal and helped manage the family business. Later, when I grew up, he left everything to me and went out to travel by himself. Over the years, he went to live in the mountains alone. , Uncle Wang even joked with him and asked him when he would succeed in cultivating immortality."

"Have you ever been to the mountain where he lived?" Wang Yujin asked.

"My neck..." Si Yan raised his head and let out a comfortable sigh, "I am busy making money, investigating cases, and taking care of grandma every day. How can I have free time to go to his barren mountain and cultivate immortality with him?"

Wang Yujin and Lin Luo looked at each other, and Lin Luo quietly activated the Seven Emotions Mirror to detect whether Si Yan was lying.

Lin Luo took out the jade pendant Si Yu gave her, placed it in front of Si Yan, and asked:

"Uncle Si gave this to me. Have you seen this jade pendant before?"

"Well, this is a good thing. It actually has its own spiritual power. If you wear it often, it should be helpful to increase your spiritual power."

Si Yan picked up the jade pendant and looked at it carefully.

"Why did my uncle only give you such a good thing? He didn't even say he would give one to me."

Lin Luo observed Si Yan's expression, "Have you really never seen him before?"

"Hard to say."

Si Yan continued to hold the jade pendant and ponder it, frowning in embarrassment.

"You also know what is going on in my family. I can do the antique business mainly because my ancestors were wealthy and left many antiques and jade utensils. They are of better quality than this jade pendant. There are many more in my family." I can’t even count them all, I can’t possibly check every one of them to see if they have spiritual power, right?”

Lin Luo only felt a black line on her forehead. Well, she knew that the Si family was very rich and there was no need to show off their wealth to her like this.

The Si family business is now entrusted to professional managers. Si Yan himself is doing antique business while investigating the truth behind his parents' car accident. There is also the famous painter Si Jinglan, who can sell a painting for several million. Si Yangen There is no shortage of money.

"I mean, is it possible that this jade pendant is not an antique in your family, but that your uncle got it from somewhere else? Do you know who he usually associates with?"

"You are investigating my uncle." Si Yan came back to his senses, his expression stern, "Why?"

"Si Yan, you have been investigating your parents' car accident case for so long, have you ever thought about one thing?"

Wang Yujin's expression became serious and she looked at Si Yan seriously.

"What kind of evil person Mu Yi is, you saw it last night. He was injured by your grandma. A few months later, he instigated others to cause your parents' car accident and killed them. Why didn't he continue to eradicate the root cause? He actually let go of your grandma, who was still recovering from her injuries, and you, who was still young and still studying? This is not in line with his behavior. "

Si Yan's eyes suddenly shrank, "What do you want to say?"

"I just raised this obvious doubt and found no concrete evidence."

Wang Yujin sighed slightly exaggeratedly.

"To tell you the truth, I sent people to investigate your Si family before. There are only three of you left in the Si family. The whereabouts and deeds of you and senior Si Jinglan over the years can basically be verified.

It's just that your uncle is too mysterious. He booked an entire mountain and said he was practicing in the mountain, but has he really been in that mountain all the time?

My men sneaked into the mountain several times, fainted inexplicably, and then woke up and returned to the foot of the mountain. You say, how can this make me not suspicious? "

Si Yan's face also darkened. As an adult, he was busy investigating the truth behind his parents' car accident and taking time to take care of his sick grandma. He didn't pay too much attention to the movements of his uncle Si Yu.

When the news of his parents' car accident came, Si Yan was still in elementary school. It was Si Yu who rushed to the scene immediately to deal with the funeral arrangements of his brother and sister-in-law.

He always thought that his uncle was inspired by the death of his brother and sister-in-law in a car accident, so he looked down on the world of society and hid in the mountains and forests.

Now it seems that things are far from simple.

"Wang Yujin, as I said before, since you are cooperating with me, we must be honest with each other. What exactly do you suspect about my uncle? Please tell me clearly!"

Seeing that Si Yan seemed angry, Wang Yujin raised the end of her eyes and signaled Si Yan to pay attention to the jade pendant in his hand.

"Do you know the origin of the jade pendant you are holding?"

Si Yan looked at the jade pendant in his hand again. The white jade was warm and moist. Except for the spiritual power that was within reach, there was no pattern on the jade pendant, making it difficult to distinguish the source of the jade pendant.

"I don't see it. If you have anything to say, please just say it."

Wang Yujin had a lot of free time and was waiting for his words.

"Okay, you heard what Mu Yi said last night. He wanted to seize the Mu family's soul-guarding jade, but Mu Qing stopped him. Mu Qing destroyed the soul-guarding jade at the cost of his life, and the soul-guarding jade became A pile of fragments, the one in your hand is a jade pendant made from the fragments of the Soul-Guarding Jade."

Lin Luo's eyebrows twitched. It was not confirmed that this jade pendant was a fragment of the soul-guarding jade! He wanted to speak and add something, but his hand was held down by Wang Yujin.

"Now, do you understand what I mean?"

Wang Yujin's eyes swept across the forest with a hint of resistance, and settled on Si Yan's face, which was as deep as water.

Si Yan is a smart man, so he understands the deep meaning of Wang Yujin's words.

"When the Mu family was in trouble, my uncle had been in Southwest City, managing the family business with my parents. He definitely did not participate in Mu Yi's attack on the Mu family. As for why he had fragments of the Soul Guarding Jade..."

He pondered for a moment, trying to think through the possibilities.

"There are many possibilities, such as accidentally picking it up, or buying it from the black market... Before the accident at the Mu family, my uncle often accompanied grandma to visit the Mu family. He had a good relationship with Uncle Mu Qing and Aunt Mu Xi.

Maybe...maybe he has also been exploring the truth about the Mu family back then, so he found the fragments of the Soul Guarding Jade..."

Si Yan spoke sincerely and looked at Lin Luo expectantly, hoping that the other party would believe his words.

Lin Luo looked back at him, feeling the feedback from the Seven Emotions Mirror. Si Yan probably wasn't lying. Maybe he really didn't know.

"These are all your conjectures and there is no evidence." Lin Luo said softly.

If the jade pendant that Si Yu gave Lin Luo really came from the soul-guarding jade, it would be doubtful how Si Yu obtained the fragments of the soul-guarding jade, aside from other things.

With Mu Yi's vigorous and resolute approach, all the broken soul-guarding jade fragments were recovered and taken away by them. There should be no possibility of them being missed or sold elsewhere.

And the mountain where Si Yu practiced was as well defended as an iron barrel, which was also very suspicious.

"Except for this jade pendant, don't you have any evidence for what you say?"

Si Yan was unhappy because his uncle was regarded as a suspect, and his face became very ugly.

"If my uncle was really involved and had some evil intentions in his heart, why would he make fragments of the Soul-Keeping Jade into a jade pendant and give it to you?"
