Chapter 285 Accomplice
The maid who was caught subconsciously wanted to cover her face, but Lin Yangyang held her shoulders tightly and she could not move.
After all this trouble, Lin Yangyang finally saw the person in front of her clearly. She frowned:
"Yun Jian, why are you here? Why are you running here instead of taking good care of Fourth Aunt?"
The maidservant called "Yun Jian" rolled her eyes and immediately came up with an excuse:
"Miss Yangyang, Miss Zhiqing, I...I heard there are pearls here, and I'm obsessed with money, so I came to take a look."
"Do you think I'm stupid?" Lin Yangyang sneered and grabbed Yun Jian without saying anything more.
Lin Zhiqing stared at Yun Jian's eyes and suddenly smiled:
"Is this what you're looking for?"
An ordinary bead lay quietly in the palm of Lin Zhiqing's hand.
Yun Jian's eyes narrowed, not knowing how to respond.
Lin Zhiqing put the beads away and said, "Take it with you and tell me when you get back."
Hearing this, Lin Yangyang slashed at the back of Yun Jian's neck.
Yun Jian fainted immediately.
Lin Zhiqing and Lin Yangyang brought Yun Jian back to Shuqing Pavilion. After putting her down, Lin Yangyang was quite angry:
"I didn't expect it was Yun Jian who was behind this. Was this Fourth Aunt's idea or Lin Jingya's?"
"I don't know." Lin Zhiqing shook his head.
Yun Jian was Fourth Aunt's maid, but before Lin Jingya got into trouble, she was Lin Jingya's personal maid.
Before Lin Jingya was sent to Bianliang, Lin Congli ordered that all the maids and servants around Lin Jingya who had participated in the murder of his cousin be beaten to death, and no one was allowed to go to Bianliang to serve Lin Jingya.
Yun Jian had not committed any crime to murder her cousin, so Fourth Aunt kept her by her side as a token of her concern.
This is what Fourth Aunt said when Lin Zhiqing was investigating the case of Lin Congyan and met her with Yun Jian.
At that time, Lin Zhiqing had not yet taken full power and was unaware of these changes.
But after knowing this, she has always been wary of Yun Jian.
It was not until he went to Bianliang that he determined that Lin Jingya and Jiang Liuyun had secretly exchanged things, and no one else in the Lin family knew about it except Lin Jingya.
In addition, since Yun Jian did not show any unusual behavior, she slowly removed Yun Jian from the key observation list.
In addition, Yun Jian’s name was not on the list of the three key time periods.
Because of this, Yun Jian never entered their field of vision.
Lin Yangyang also thought of this:
"Could it be that the list is fake?"
Yun Jian is a member of Lin Congyan's family. If Lin Congyan wants to tamper with the list, it would be very easy.
But Lin Zhiqing shook his head: "You can find out about this kind of thing by asking the people on duty at the time. It's easy to be exposed if you falsify the list."
The moment Yun Jian appeared, Lin Zhiqing knew that she was involved in this matter.
When they were in the garden, Aunt Mu clearly had something to say, and this moment was probably captured by Yun Jian.
After Yun Jian got the news, she set her sights on Aunt Mu. She didn't want Aunt Mu to speak, so she might have been spying on her secretly.
After confirming Aunt Mu's whereabouts, killing her to silence her became a piece of cake.
After connecting these things together in his mind, Lin Zhiqing's face tightened, and he looked at Yun Jian as if he was looking at a dead person.
She knew that Yun Jian was most likely the culprit behind Aunt Mu's death, but there were still many doubts.
Although the retrial of Lin Congrong had caused a lot of uproar, how could Yun Jian, a maid, be so perceptive about the affairs of the court and try every possible means to silence Aunt Mu?
Is she really just a maid?
Thinking of this, Lin Zhiqing spoke to Lin Yangyang:
"Cousin, do you think she can learn martial arts?"
"Practicing martial arts?" Lin Yangyang shook her head without even thinking:
"She's like a little chicken. Not only is she skinny, but her aura is also chaotic."
"The movements he made just now when he was looking for something were very clumsy and not agile enough. He definitely doesn't look like a martial artist."
"Can she kill someone with one blow?" Lin Zhiqing asked.
Lin Yangyang shook her head again: "Impossible, that requires some skill."
After confirming that Yun Jian didn't know how to fight, Lin Zhiqing's expression became somewhat heavy.
"Cousin, I suspect Yun Jian has accomplices."
"Someone from the Lin family?" Lin Yangyang asked.
"Not sure." Lin Zhiqing couldn't make a judgment yet: "Go to Yun Jian's room first and search to see if there is anything strange."
"Okay." Lin Yangyang immediately turned around and disappeared into the darkness.
Half an hour later, Lin Yangyang returned.
She was a little helpless: "I searched her room and found no clues."
Hearing this, Lin Zhiqing frowned, "After daybreak, we'll take Yun Jian to find Fourth Aunt and investigate her whereabouts these days."
Lin Yangyang nodded, and then another question popped up in her mind: "Sister Qing, can't you hypnotize Yun Jian and make her confess the real culprit behind this?"
"You can't use hypnosis whenever you want." Lin Zhiqing helped Lin Yangyang tie up Yun Jian, then sat aside.
"It's easy to hypnotize someone, but it's very difficult to get what you want out of them."
"First, I need to be familiar with the person's background and weaknesses. Secondly, the difficulty of hypnosis varies depending on the person, and the conditions required are also different."
"For example, with Liu Mang, I was able to hypnotize him because I was familiar with his work style and personality, and combined with a large number of images, I was able to achieve that effect."
"To me, Yun Jian is just a stranger. I don't know her well, so I don't know what could hypnotize her."
"Even if we find something that can hypnotize her, we still need to spend time to open the door to her heart, because we want to explore the secrets hidden deep in her heart. This is a long process."
Hearing this, Lin Yangyang nodded thoughtfully: "I used to think you could hypnotize anyone you wanted."
"If this is really possible, wouldn't it be a mess?" Lin Zhiqing shook his head slightly:
"Hypnosis is not omnipotent. If it were not so, why has Liu Mang only trained one flute player after so many years?"
"I was able to successfully hypnotize Liu Mang earlier, most likely due to his emotions. But even so, I could only find ways to make him confess the crime himself."
"As for his other secrets, such as whether he was Jiang Liuyun's man or why he framed Fourth Uncle, I can't get them through hypnosis."
"I understand. Taking shortcuts is not a good idea." Lin Yangyang sighed.
"There aren't so many shortcuts in the world." Lin Zhiqing never believed this:
"I'll watch her. You take a rest. We have a tough battle tomorrow."
"It's almost dawn. We can't rest for long. Let's go straight to Aunt Four." Lin Yangyang yawned.
"I just don't believe it. The evidence is right in front of us. Could it be that Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt really don't know anything about it?"
