Chapter 122 The Difficult Detection
[Hahaha! No way, this news is too explosive! Gu Yishen and Luo Jia are actually having an affair!!!]
[No, I feel like Brother Shen is deliberately teasing Wei Lan. The guests are all wearing microphones, Brother Shen wouldn't say that on purpose knowing that.]
...
Viewers were buzzing with discussion in the live chat, with all sorts of speculations, and a large number of CP fans were even spamming the screen, urging Gu Yishen and Luo Jia to quickly admit it and make it official.
Someone in the live chat reminded everyone that we had now entered the final stage of intensive deduction.
Luo Jiayin and Gu Yishen sat at the deduction table with several other guests, their brows furrowed as they pondered the various clues they had obtained from the on-site investigation.
This case seems quite complicated; the two victims alone have already given the guests a real headache.
Furthermore, it cannot be determined whether the two victims were killed by the same person. Each suspect has their own sufficient motive and possibility, but their evidence is a mess and cannot be connected into a clear line.
“I believe the murderer is the only son of the Lu family head, Young Master Gu,” Wei Lan said first.
The moment he opened his mouth, he immediately attracted the attention of the other guests.
"Why?" Luo Jiayin asked.
"Based on the evidence collected at the scene and the testimonies obtained through questioning the servants of the Lu family, we can basically confirm that Ren Ning'er was killed by the scissors that you had the servants of the Lu family retrieve from the lake."
"In the Lu family, the only person who can freely enter and leave Ren Ning'er's room without arousing suspicion, while also making Ren Ning'er feel completely unguarded, and even embroidering and talking at the same time, I think is her husband, Young Master Gu."
Wei Lan pointed to the photo of scissors on the screen and began to speak eloquently.
Luo Jiayin rubbed her forehead and frowned, silently sighing in her heart.
Sigh... Luo Jiayin really "disagrees" with Wei Lan's intelligence and his reasoning...
"But what about the death of Madam Lu?" Lu Ziye couldn't help but ask.
As an artist under Sega, Lu Ziye naturally knew that Gu Yishen was currently a "pillar" of Sega and was at the height of his popularity, so the company would definitely pay close attention to him.
Therefore, it is necessary for him to maintain a good relationship with Gu Yishen. For example, in the current situation where he is being doubted by others, if he speaks up for Gu Yishen, Gu Yishen will definitely understand that he is speaking up for him.
This way, when he works at Sega, Gu Yishen can take care of him, which will be extremely beneficial for his future career in the entertainment industry.
"In my opinion, the death of Madam Lu is probably just a cover-up."
Wei Lan shrugged indifferently.
"Then Madam Lu went to the wine cellar to get some wine, and unfortunately the wine cellar caught fire. In a moment of emotional turmoil, Madam Lu went back into the fire to try to rescue 'Chang Xiang Si' wine. As a result, she not only failed to save the wine but also lost herself in the fire."
"But we can't rule out other people being suspects either."
“For example, didn’t a servant of the Lu family once see the head of the Ren family talking to himself in the backyard, saying the word ‘death’?”
Before Gu Yishen could say anything, Lu Ziye spoke up again, still trying his best to exonerate Gu Yishen.
Luo Jiayin found the scene somewhat amusing.
Lu Ziye's brain is about the same as Lin Manxi's, right?
What kind of peculiar habit does Sega have? Why do they always seem to train idiots?
On the surface, Wei Lan seemed to be suspecting Gu Yishen, but in reality, he was trying to clear Gu Yishen of suspicion.
However, Lu Ziye's misunderstanding and his efforts to clear Gu Yishen's name were a lucky accident, and he did not disappoint Wei Lan's "good intentions".
However, what puzzled Luo Jiayin was why Wei Lan was suddenly being so nice to Gu Yishen.
They're actually going to such lengths to clear his name.
During the final round of evidence search, when she was searching Ren Haoyu for evidence, she noticed that Gu Yishen and Wei Lan were whispering to each other. She wondered what they were saying, and guessed that the two of them had probably made some kind of shady deal.
However, Luo Jiayin was too lazy to care about these two people's affairs, because Luo Jiayin knew very well that Gu Yishen did not need to deliberately clear his name. Whether it was the eldest madam of the Lu family or Ren Ning'er, Gu Yishen was not the murderer who killed them.
Yes, that's right. Madam Lu did not die because of the "accident" of the wine cellar fire.
The fire in the wine cellar was not an accident at all, but rather a deliberate act.
Therefore, Madam Lu, like Ren Ning'er, was murdered.
However, this person...
He really kept it a secret for a long time.
Luo Jiayin barely spoke during this concentrated reasoning session, and Gu Yishen also remained silent. Occasionally, when someone asked for his opinion, he would only say a few words to appease them.
The guests on stage engaged in a heated discussion, each with their own reasoning that they believed was very close to the truth, but none of them could convince the others.
For the first time ever, Luo Jiayin didn't pay much attention to their discussion.
Even the viewers flooded the screen with comments saying that this episode's case was too difficult.
At this moment, Song Rui, the "guide," suddenly reminded everyone that time was running out and they needed to reach a conclusion as soon as possible.
Everyone started to tense up and reconsidered the clues and reasoning they had just gathered.
In the end, most people reached a consensus and decided to believe Lu Ziye's judgment, identifying Yang Yang as the murderer of Ren Ning'er.
"Okay, our guests have finished voting. Judging from their voting results, our non-celebrity guest is the one who has been identified as the murderer the most."
"So, was Concubine Yang the real murderer?"
"The real culprit is..."
In the tense atmosphere, Song Rui paused for a moment, and the guests on site and the viewers watching the program in the live broadcast room also held their breath.
Immediately following, suspenseful background music began. Song Rui smiled slightly in front of the camera, revealing a set of pearly white teeth: "The murderer who killed Ren Ning'er is—"
"Yang's concubine!"
What?! Concubine Yang was actually the murderer?!
【How is that possible?!】
[That seemingly gentle and delicate girl actually tested the real culprit?]
[Please, the guest is a young girl, but her character is a concubine!! Can you guys stop focusing on the person and start paying attention to the plot?! The plot is important!]
The guests at the scene were very excited and happy that they had voted for the murderer correctly.
However, Song Rui didn't give them time to be happy. Instead, he continued, "Unfortunately, our guests were unable to successfully deduce all the culprits for this episode. In this episode, everyone failed the challenge, and the mastermind won."
