Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 1073 Necessary imprisonment

In fact, Gao Jianli was not a fool who could be manipulated by others.

Almost as soon as he left the central pool and the anger in his heart subsided a little, he realized that the possibility of the murderer being Ge Nie was very slim.

Since the murderer could disguise himself as Duan Murong and lure him away before, he could also disguise himself as Gai Nie and deceive others.

Master Xu didn't know what happened before, so he would subconsciously believe the 'truth' he saw and tell him.

As for the true identity of the murderer, it is difficult to say.

Of course, there is also a possibility that Ge Nie is the murderer, and he is also proficient in the art of disguise, so he deliberately did the opposite and directly showed his true face to induce others to rule out his suspicion.

But if you look at the problem this way, you can continue to think deeply. The murderer is not Gai Nie. He deliberately used Gai Nie's face to make people think that Gai Nie was smart and used this method to eliminate his own suspicion.

Then you can follow the endless matryoshka dolls, which can be called the suspect version of Zifeiyu. An knows the joy of fish, and Zhuang Zhou even called him an expert.

Gao Jianli was naturally not stupid enough to make complicated inferences for no apparent reason. Eliminating subjective factors, he had to admit that the chance of Gai Nie being the murderer was very low. It should be that the murderer wanted to deliberately sow discord between the two parties.

But he still went to war to find Gai Nie.

The purpose was not to take advantage of others' tactics, but simply to target Ge Nie.

One reason is that he hates Genie, so he took the opportunity to avenge his private revenge.

Although it sounds very unqualified, so what?
  Double standards are one of the essences of human beings. Isn't it normal to be strict with others and be lenient to yourself?

I just have no morals. What can you do?

Another reason is that reality also requires him to do this.

After all, Gai Nie was not a member of the Mo family, but it was a reality that Master Xu saw that Gai Nie was the murderer.

Although it can be explained by the murderer disguising himself, and it should even be said that this explanation is the most reasonable, what would the many disciples of the Mohist family think?

The two major commanders, Master Xu and Master, were attacked one after another, and several disciples were also killed together. This was by no means a small matter, and it was bound to spread throughout the city.

In this process, what views will the many disciples hold?

The answer is hard to say, but one thing is certain. As living people, they cannot accept the explanation given above without any doubt.

Does the murderer know how to disguise himself?

Does the murderer have to be the same person?
  Can't Genie know the art of disguise?
  Or are there other possibilities?
  In this matter, Duan Murong's question is easy to explain, because she is the Jinghu Medical Immortal who is very familiar to the Mohist disciples. She is the miracle doctor who helped the world by hanging the pot. In the absence of conclusive evidence, everyone will choose to believe her.

But Gai Nie is different. To the Mohist disciples, his background is not very clean and he is not worthy of trust. Doubts are bound to arise.

Rather than letting the disciples discuss things privately, Gao Jianli felt that it would be better to just treat him as the first suspect.

Of course, it is impossible to kill Nie. If a fight breaks out, it will probably not end well, but the strictest supervision must be implemented.

This is the most appropriate solution. Genie will not be substantially harmed, and the damage to his reputation will be restored after the truth is revealed, while the Mohist family can ensure internal stability as much as possible.

Neither Tianming nor Ge Nie knew Gao Jianli's thoughts and plans yet.

Tianming was worried that the other party would really treat his uncle as a murderer, so he kept talking non-stop.

Half of the content was to repeatedly excuse Gai Nie, and the other half was to repeatedly scold Gao Jianli and the Mohist family.

Gao Jianli ignored this and stared at Gai Nie closely, waiting for his reply.

Ge Nie, of course, cannot remain silent forever. He raised his hand and put it on Tianming's shoulder, signaling with his eyes that he didn't need to continue talking.

Seeing this, Tianming muttered a few times, but still did not go against Ge Nie's wishes and just pushed him aside to sulk.

"These things have nothing to do with me." Gai Nie responded, a dry and clear statement that seemed unconvincing.

But for Gai Nie, being willing to give an explanation is good enough.

If it were his temperament when he was young, he would at most give Gao Jianli a look and let him figure out the rest.

There is no one among the two heroes in Guigu who is not proud.

Gao Jianli's reaction to this explanation was also very straightforward - I don't care whether you explain it or not!
  He had already made up his mind. Whether Gai Nie wrote a 30,000-word essay detailing the impossibility of his murder, or whether he gave him a look and realized it for himself, the result would be the same.

"From now on, you can't leave this room for even half a step, you can't do anything extra, and you're not allowed to see anyone else, otherwise...you will be responsible for the consequences!"

After Gao Jianli said such threatening words, he turned and left the room.

Regarding the fact that he was grounded, Ge Ni said that he was emotionally stable.

How the Mohist family makes decisions is the Mohist family's business. As for how he acts, that is his business.

For now, he has no intention of making any moves. It's fine just staying in the house. Gao Jianli can just keep him locked up if he wants to.

Ge Nie doesn't care about problems such as damage to his reputation or restrictions on his freedom.

In other words, he doesn't need to care about it now. If there is a need, he can solve it at any time.

But just because he doesn't care doesn't mean Tianming doesn't care either.

When he heard that his uncle was directly quarantined at home, he quickly chased him out, pointed at Gao Jianli's back and yelled, "Why do you lock up my uncle!?"

Gao Jianli turned around and responded calmly, "He is a suspect!"

"I told you that uncle can't commit murder, why don't you believe it!" Tian Ming jumped up in anger, feeling that Gao Jianli was obviously messing around.

"You are slandering! You are slandering! You are basically targeting the uncle!"

Regarding Tianming's accusation, Gao Jianli said that I would not make any statement. You can think whatever you like. You can't explain the reason to a child.

Gao Jianli turned around and was about to leave. When Tianming saw this, he was so angry that he jumped up and went to beat him, but he was grabbed by the Mohist disciple on the side.

"Let go...me!" Tianming struggled hard, but unfortunately his little arms could not twist his thighs, and he could only be lifted up in mid-air, helpless and furious.

At this time, the snow girl came over.

Of course, she had to come and take a look at such a major event as the accident in the central pool and the attack on Master Xu, not to mention that it also involved the man with the highest combat effectiveness in the city.

She first went to Duan Murong to ask about Master Xu, otherwise she would have come earlier.

When she came over at this time, what she saw was the scene of Gao Jianli leaving gracefully and Jing Tianming being incompetent and furious.

Instead of rushing to chase Gao Jianli, Xue Nu came first and asked people to let Tianming go.

As soon as Tianming was pardoned, he quickly went to Xue Nu to complain, "Sister Xue Nu, you have to give me... uh, and uncle, we two make the decision!"

"That... Xiao Gao, yes, that's Xiao Gao. He was so unreasonable that he insisted that uncle had harmed Master Xu and Old Man Ban, so he locked up uncle!"
