trickster

Wei Yan's words that day echoed repeatedly in Lin Huai's mind. It turned out that... this person was also in the clubhouse that day!

"You... Did you meet Chen Shen before we came to you?" Lin Huai asked, he was still in a state of shock. Although he knew that he had always been defiant before, he still didn't think he saw Chen Shen. He has never met this person before, and Wei Yan is not sure whether he has met him before. He should just barely live and socialize before.

"If you talk about the accidental case in the clubhouse, I did see his excellent eloquence in selling wine on stage. The stories he told are really interesting." There was a trace of ridicule and joy in the corner of his eyes.

"..." So when Wei Yan went up to ask him about Chen Shen's situation, this person directly said that Chen Shen was a "fraudster", and he shouldn't have continued the chat, but he was always full of Chen Shen's affairs. Out of curiosity, he couldn't help asking, "What story did he tell?"

"It's not a surprising story, but the place in Europe mentioned in the story is familiar to me. Although the legend he said is true, it's just not a village used to make fine wine." Jiang Ke answer.

"What is that for?" Lin Huai asked. He stared at Jiang Ke, and suddenly realized something. Jiang Ke's facial features were deeper than ordinary people, but his gentle and elegant demeanor covered up these, but His pupils were really light, "Wait a minute, are you a mixed race?"

"Do I look like me?" Jiang Ke smiled, and when the other party smiled, Lin Huai was unsure again, and there were also people with light-colored pupils.

"Have you ever been to the village he mentioned?"

"Correct."

"..." Lin Huai was speechless, he couldn't imagine what Chen Shen made up, but after making it up, it was so embarrassing to meet someone who had actually been to that place.

"Speaking of which, since you checked me, you should also check Chen Shen." Jiang Ke really can't be blamed for this, it was they who threatened each other's adopted son first.

"Are you saying someone was chasing him to commit a crime?" Jiang Ke said, Lin Huai's pupils shrank, the other party was more direct than he imagined, and the investigation was so deep, the past between him and Chen Shen must be This person also knew it clearly, so he showed his hole cards so directly, and he didn't know if it was another kind of "threat".

This person is indeed a troublesome person. If it only concerns himself, Lin Huai will just ignore him, but the matter is already like this, and this person is like an enemy or a friend. Why don't we see if we can get some other useful information from him .

"Since you have checked everything, can you tell me, do you have any clues about this?"

"I didn't investigate that deeply, but—" Jiang Ke shook his head, but suddenly changed the topic. "Do you think Chen Shen has no clues? The murderer can basically be locked in the circle of people who know him."

"He added a lot of friends... and he loves to post status..."

Jiang Ke smiled and was noncommittal, which made Lin Huai shake too.

The cases that Chen Shen pursued can actually be divided into two categories. The first category is the most primitive case he pursued, where the body was lost by finding objects for temporary cutting, while the second category is the imitation case after university, and the murderer had already prepared it. The tools used to cut crimes were committed according to the location Chen Shen declared. If you really want to lock the scope, then it must be someone who knows Chen Shen, and the time can be locked after college. Could it be that Chen Shen already has a general direction in mind... ?But even if there is, it's not surprising that the other party didn't tell him in this situation, but he still feels somewhat lost.

While Lin Huai was thinking, Jiang Ke noticed someone coming behind him.

"Really, Cao Cao Cao Cao is here."

Cao Cao?They mentioned Chen Shen just now, but Chen Shen is not on duty, so it is impossible for him to come... Lin Huai turned around, but found that the two people who came were really Chen Shen and another colleague who had a good relationship with Chen Shen, Seeing Lin Huai, another colleague and Chen Shen were a little surprised.

"Lin Huai?" Chen Shen blinked.

"...I went out to drink with Wen Li'an."

"What about Wen Li'an?"

"With his..." Lin Huai was stunned for a moment, unable to figure out what to call him, "Together with 'friend'."

Seeing Chen Shen chatting with Lin Huai, another colleague took the initiative to take over the task of checking on the drunk lady.

Chen Shen looked past Lin Huai and landed on Jiang Ke who was sitting firmly: "We meet again."

"Yes," Jiang Ke stood up, as if preparing to leave, "Since you are here, I will leave it to you."

Chen Shen nodded and didn't say much. Lin Huai was worried that there would be a tense atmosphere between the two of them.

Seeing Jiang Ke and his men walking away, Lin Huai immediately asked, "Why are you here?"

"This matter is more complicated. He is afraid that he may not be able to handle it. I just happen to be free."

"How complicated?" In Lin Huai's presupposition, this should be the stepmother abusing the stepdaughter.

Chen Shen quickly explained to Lin Huai that this drunken lady originally had a good family background, and she married a husband from an average family background, and her husband was considered to be up to par. Although the company is not big, but the benefits are good, the two gave birth to a daughter, But in middle age, the husband fell in love with another woman, abandoned her directly, and gave birth to a son with Xiaosan. Although the family's property was divided equally, the husband also paid for the monthly living expenses, but the drunk lady had a smooth life. I couldn't accept the blow for a while, and I still spent a lot of money, and I also made a group of unreliable "sisters". After spending all the divided property, I still spent my monthly living expenses on dressing up, resulting in She was unable to make ends meet, and her daughter was brought up by her. She had no food every weekend and had to ask her father for money.

"Is there a dispute because of money?" Lin Huai frowned. The relationship between stepmother and stepdaughter is not easy to handle, let alone the stepdaughter who has already paid her living expenses but always comes to her husband to ask for money.

"Well, there should have been before," Chen Shen hesitated, "the stepmother's yelling didn't mention anything specific, only that the stepdaughter was ungrateful and greedy. What happened today is more complicated than you think. The stepmother refused today." The stepdaughter who came to ask for money, and then the house caught fire and burned their son. The stepmother thought that the fire was set by the stepdaughter, and held a grudge, and sent the stepdaughter to the hospital. She is still emotionally excited. Prepare to go to school tomorrow."

"It doesn't sound very complicated." Lin Huai said, it was much simpler than the case of a pregnant woman beating a dog.

"Indeed, but for the little girl, no, if she didn't set the fire, there would be almost no one behind her."

Hearing this, Lin Huai was stunned for a moment, because he ignored the age and endurance of the person involved.

"So you're here to 'put out the fire'? Should someone else investigate the fire?"

"Yes," Chen Shen nodded, "Actually, the stepmother on the other end of the phone is really agitated, and I'll have a headache when it's over later."

Lin Huai was silent, and Chen Shen said so, so this excitement must not be of an ordinary level. He...Although it is not kind to say it, he really doesn't want to get involved. He is the worst at adjusting conflicts.

"Then pay attention to your health and come back early..." Lin Huai said guilty.

"I know, but what did you chat with Jiang Ke just now, this person is not very reliable, if something happens, I hope you can tell me." Speaking of Jiang Ke, Chen Shen's tone suddenly became serious .

Lin Huai knew that Chen Shen had probably heard the phrase that Cao Cao was here, and it was unrealistic to avoid the topic: "Are you sure you want to listen?"

"of course."

"He said that you are a big liar. Before you ran to threaten him, he had seen you selling fake wine, and you threatened him very vigorously."

"I didn't sell fake wine," Chen Shen couldn't help laughing, "I just gave it a little soul."

"By making up some village legend..." The corner of Lin Huai's mouth twitched.

"I didn't make it up. There is indeed such a legend," Chen Shen said with a smile, "Why does he say that I made it up? If you want to arrest me, you need to have real evidence."

"No, I made a mistake. He didn't mean that you made up a story. The story is true, but that place doesn't make wine."

Chen Shen's body froze, wondering if he was too sensitive, this time, the first time, as if it had never happened before, Lin Huai felt the emotion of surprise from Chen Shen, although it was only for a moment, the emotion disappeared It's too fast, like an illusion.

"What's wrong?" Lin Huai stared at Chen Shen. At this moment, there seemed to be nothing wrong.

"That place does not make wine, I didn't expect him to know."

"If you tell too many lies, you will always give up. Don't be too confident," Lin Huai couldn't help it, but he felt that something was out of harmony, which made him couldn't help asking, "What story did you tell?"

"The story of a man and woman running away, usually I will change it a little according to the things I sell."

"What did you say that time?"

"A man and a woman who belonged to rival families fell in love with each other, so they eloped and came to live in a village called Stamkeweiss. They used the lake water in the village to make delicious wine. In short, the middle part is I made it up, mainly for the sake of selling wine, and the end result is the same. Although they abandoned their family and their hatred, their son did not. After learning of his own life, he returned to his father's family and slaughtered his mother's family. Unify the two hostile forces, but his mother committed suicide by jumping into the lake, and his father followed, the story ends here, but I will add some follow-ups according to the situation."

"This... is really an illogical story... there is no need to be so ruthless." Obviously, he can rely on his own identity, but when he thinks about it, Lin Huai feels a little complicated. In short... there is no need to slaughter his mother's family Well, and—

"Where did you make up the wine from? It's not the lake water soaked in the corpse."

"Haha, how is that possible? Of course it is the melted water on the snow mountain. The focus of this story is the unique brewing process. I don't think you are interested in listening carefully." Chen Shen smiled happily. "As for the logic part, most of the legends are So, even if it really happened, those reasonable details have disappeared long ago, and it has become what it is now. The real situation is that there is no more than a deserted land, no wine, no soul. Handicrafts, like tablecloths.”

A tablecloth with a soul... Chen Shen, this guy, even complains about himself, but...

"Is the village deserted?" Lin Huai was a little puzzled, "Where did you hear this legend? Didn't it come from the villagers?"

"I also heard it from someone, and I went to that village to see it, and there was no one there."
