After rebirth, I became the white moonlight of Hunjun

Chapter 331: Peeling off the cocoon
"You are very discerning." Pei Li took a step aside, "This is the gentleman who wants to ask you something."

The shopkeeper was stunned. A girl was called an adult?
"Do you have any impression of a man named Chen Si who worked here before?"

The shopkeeper said nothing, stroking his chin and thinking.

"Fighting, making trouble, going to jail, don't you remember such big things?" Perry shouted.

The shopkeeper slapped his head: "Yes, yes, there is such a person."

"Did he apply for the job by himself?"

"That's not true," the shopkeeper said, "I was introduced by someone who said that this man has a strong body and is a good material."

"Were you at the scene when the incident happened?" Lin Zhiyu asked.

"I'm not here, but Ding Yi is."

The shopkeeper called Ding Yi, the one at the door just now.

Ding Yi glanced at Lin Zhiyu and said solemnly: "Someone suddenly got angry and said that someone at the same table was cheating. Chen Si was responsible for maintaining discipline. He accidentally acted too hard and was accused."

They say they maintain discipline, but they are actually just a thug.

Lin Zhiyu's doubts became more intense.

Being a thug is also a high-risk profession. Is it because the salary of the manager is not high enough?

Chen Si also did what was within his responsibilities. The shopkeeper not only refused to protect him, but also allowed him to go to jail?
unusual!
"If your subordinates are imprisoned and you don't speak up for them, aren't you afraid that no one will do anything for you in the future?"

Lin Zhiyu turned to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper hesitated for a moment: "This...the opposite side is the government office. That person stuffed money, how dare I."

Lin Zhiyu's eyes narrowed.

"Ding Yi, are you familiar with Chen Sim?"

Ding Yi shook his head violently: "No, not familiar."

Meeting Pei Li's gaze, Ding Yi shrank his head and said, "Just a colleague.

But I heard that he has a father who is very powerful, and he may be short of money, so he came to this business for a living. "

Short of money?

Lin Zhiyu's eyes flashed.

"Does he have a family?"

"I'm not sure, but he has a sachet that he won't touch. It's a very common style. I guess it was a gift from a girl in the flower house."

Pei Li asked first, "How high is your monthly salary here?"

Ding nodded, and unconsciously glanced at the clothes of the two people in front of him: "Those who maintain discipline have the highest monthly salary, five ounces a month. People like me only have three ounces."

"Yes, yes, we have always been very considerate of everyone." The shopkeeper stopped, "It's not easy for everyone, and we also provide food and accommodation."

Pei Li sighed in his heart, no wonder he had money to visit flower houses.

Think about yourself and have to tighten your belt at the end of the month.

Well, it's time to ask Mr. Xie about a salary increase.

Lin Zhiyu asked other questions, such as Chen Si's preferences, habits, etc.

Unfortunately, there are no very useful clues.

When he was about to leave, Pei Liduo asked: "How much revenue do you make in a day?"

The shopkeeper thought for a while: "Probably a thousand taels."

Before getting on the carriage, Lin Zhiyu looked back again.

There were not only dignitaries but also many wealthy country squires with plenty of money at home.

The chips are also divided into three, six or nine levels, different people, different ways of playing, and different prices.

Pei Li asked: "Sir, are you going to prison now?"

Lin Zhiyu thought for a moment: "Let's go."

The person in charge of the prison is Xie Zhi's master, Guan Jiu.

Xie Zhi had greeted him early in the morning, and as soon as Lin Zhiyu arrived, Guan Jiu greeted him.

When he saw Lin Zhiyu for the first time, he frowned.

Wouldn't it be frightening for a girl to be in prison?
My apprentice is still not meticulous enough in his work!

"Master Guan." Lin Zhiyu nodded, "How is Chen Ling doing now?" His breath was calm, how could he look afraid?

Guan Jiu's heart trembled. The last time he felt like this was his own master!

"Chen Ling has a very strict mouth. He killed the eldest prince in one bite." Guan Jiu took her to prison. "A few of the brothers have a measured approach and are good at speaking and writing, so they won't die."

If you can speak and write, that's enough.

Lin Zhiyu stepped into prison.

It's not as humid as Qin State, but the stench in the air is stronger.

Guan Jiu glanced at Lin Zhiyu, who still looked calm.

Good guy!
Guan Jiu sighed secretly and opened the cell door. Chen Ling was lying on the ground, dying.

"Wow--"

The jailer poured a basin of cold water on him and woke him up.

Guan Jiu moved a chair and asked Lin Zhiyu to sit down.

Lin Zhiyu didn't say anything, and motioned to the recorder on the side to get paper and pen to take notes.

"Who are you?" There was no movement for a long time, and Chen Ling finally couldn't bear it anymore.

He raised his head with difficulty and saw that the person in front of him was a little girl, disdain written on her face.

"It's strange, don't you want to assassinate me? You can't even remember my appearance?"

Lin Zhiyu looked at the people on the ground leisurely.

Chen Ling was shocked and lowered his head: "My eyes are injured and I can't see clearly."

"Did the eldest prince ask you to assassinate me?"

"Yes!"

"reason?"

"His Highness will kill him as soon as he says so. Where is the reason?"

Chen Ling coughed a few times and looked determined.

Guan Jiu couldn't help but remind him: "Master Lin, I have used severe punishment before. He kept saying these words over and over again, and nothing else."

It’s a tough one!
Lin Zhiyu changed the subject: "I heard that you have a son at home?"

Chen Ling looked up, confused and shocked: "None of your business... what did you do to my son?"

Lin Zhiyu ignored him and continued calmly: "My wife died young, and you finally became a steward in the eldest prince's mansion, thinking that your life would get better and better, but something unexpected happened.

Your son got into a fight and went to jail, his life is ruined.

You begged the eldest prince to rescue you, but he used this as a condition to let you take a desperate risk and assassinate the envoy. "

"You already know this, why do you come to ask me? Kill me or chop me into pieces, it's up to you!"

Chen Ling looked as if he was ready to die and beat his heart hard.

Lin Zhiyu sneered: "Since that man can fish your son out, he can also harm your son again."

"What do you mean? He can't!" After hearing this, Chen Ling was visibly panicked.

"I haven't said who it is, and you're so sure?" Lin Zhiyu's face sank.

"Besides, the eldest prince's palace is surrounded, and there is no way he can do anything to your son. Why are you so afraid?
Or is there someone else behind it? "

Only then did Chen Ling realize that he had been tricked by the little girl in front of him.

Before he could speak, Lin Zhiyu pressed forward step by step: "Have you ever thought about why your son, who is loyal and honest, suddenly got into a fight with others?
Have you ever wondered why no one stood up for him?
Or, have you ever thought that your son should not be in prison? "

A series of questions were thrown at Chen Ling.

Chen Ling's mouth opened slightly, with a look of disbelief in his eyes.

Yes, if you didn't just hurt someone, why should you go to jail?

How could something not serious become serious?

Lin Zhiyu leaned back on his chair and said, "There are still people at Jile Bank."

Chen Ling was shocked.

"I'm not in a hurry. Just tell me a little bit. Let's start with why Chen Si wants to be a thug."

Lin Zhiyu tapped the armrest of the chair with her index finger.
