C316 You Don't Believe Me
Hearing Luo Jianjian's hesitant voice, Murong Yun answered with a muffled grunt.
When he saw the short wooden sabre, he immediately thought of Lin Mei. After all, Association of 100 and Yang Qiu Lin Jiu's team competition from before. Murong Yun had personally seen Lin Mei's short wooden sabre the second time he came to the training ground to teach her.
"This short wooden sabre is the weapon left behind at the scene."
"Impossible!"
Luo Jianjian retorted Lin Zimo without any hesitation. She turned around and looked at Lin Zimo with a frown.
"If he had killed someone without leaving a trace, how could he have left his weapon at the scene? Lin Mei was a smart person within the Association of 100. She would never do such a foolish thing! "As I see it, this short wooden sabre just happens to be similar to Lin Mei's!"
Luo Jianjian explained, but this explanation seemed to be meant to appease her.
Lin Zimo stepped forward and pointed at the handle of the short wooden sabre. Luo Jianjian looked in the direction that he was pointing, and found that the hilt of the short wooden sabre was stained with blood.
"This weapon wasn't intentionally left behind at the scene. It was used too hard when the murderer was trying to kill the last person. The entire dagger and even the hand pierced into the body of the deceased. So much so that this dagger is deeply embedded into the skeleton of the deceased's chest, unable to even be pulled out … "
Listening to Lin Zimo's narration, Luo Jianjian could only imagine how cruel and ruthless the scene was. This showed how deep the hatred a killer had for his victim.
"Then... That didn't mean anything. If a person could make this short wooden sabre, it would only be similar to Lin Mei. "He should have used a steel knife to kill people. Why did he have to use this short wooden knife?"
"So …"
Murong Yun suddenly spoke up. He pulled Luo Jianjian, who was in a panic, by the shoulders, and tried his best to calm her down.
"So you saw the reaction of those people when we discovered the weapon for the public to see. If he knew about this, he would be even more arrogant. When we rushed back, we wanted to go with you to the Cloud Sect and personally ask Lin Mei about it. "
"Alright, let's go now!"
Luo Jianjian didn't want to wait any longer. She was afraid, but she looked forward to the truth.
Murong Yun and Luo Jianjian were riding on a carriage, while Su Liancheng and Liu Tie were riding on a carriage. They were rushing towards Cloud Sect.
Su Liancheng was bored to death, so he recalled the scene at the murder scene. He suddenly thought of something and turned around to ask Lin Zimo.
"Hey, Zimo. Who was the last person to be killed by the murderer using the most brutal method? "
"Hou Jingbo is the biggest boss in that marketplace. "True …"
Lin Zimo slightly frowned and stopped himself from speaking. What he wanted to say was what he wanted to say to Luo Jianjian, but didn't dare to.
"What is it? Stop hitting me! "
"He is also the person who cruelly bought Lin Mei and the other slaves that day. I heard Lin Mei's entire family was sold by him. Lin Mei's parents were too old to be sold, so he despised them and ate and drank them, causing them to starve to death. "
"Damn this scum!"
Su Liancheng fanned himself and could not help but exclaim at the coolness of the world. Wu Tie sighed. This undoubtedly made Lin Mei even more suspicious. However, he didn't dare to say these words to Luo Jianjian.
Currently, the best result was that Lin Mei's short wooden sabre was still in her hand.
They quickly arrived at the training grounds. Under Lin Mei's lead, the Association of 100 was in the midst of training. Lin Mei had her own way of training.
However, Luo Jianjian's current focus was not on her training. She rushed forward and grabbed Lin Mei before lowering her head to search for the shadow of the short wooden sabre on her body.
"Where's your knife?"
Luo Jianjian didn't notice the short knife that Lin Mei usually had on her waist, and her heart instantly became even more flustered.
"What …" "Knife?"
Seeing Luo Jianjian's flustered expression, Lin Mei could not help but panic a little.
"Short wooden sabre!" The short wooden knife I gave you. In order for you to practice fighting techniques properly, you will not hurt your short wooden sabre! "
"Oh …" The boss said, "Oh, that, I don't know where I left it." He disappeared after chasing Master Poison yesterday, what's wrong? What does boss want that blade for? "
Hearing Lin Mei's words, Luo Jianjian felt a wave of dizziness, and she almost fell to the ground.
"Boss!"
Lin Mei hurried forward to support her. Before she touched Luo Jianjian, Murong Yun had already hugged her.
"Are you sure that your short wooden sabre is missing?"
Murong Yun asked Lin Mei once again with a serious expression. Lin Mei stretched out her hand and froze in the office. She realized that the people who came today were all in a bad mood.
"I... Confirm, what happened? Sister Jing, what's wrong with boss? "
Lin Mei looked at Xiao Jing'er at the side in a panic. Xiao Jing'er seemed to want to say something, but stopped, unable to utter a word.
"Lin Mei, as the suspect in last night's tragedy at the slave market, you need to go to the imperial court to cooperate in the investigation."
"What?" The tragedy of the slave market? "
Lin Mei was stunned for a moment, then recalled her agreement with Master Poison yesterday. She thought Master Poison was only trying to escape and wouldn't fulfill his promise. But now, it seemed, he had done it.
"Is Hou Jingbo dead?"
Lin Mei didn't care about anything else, she wanted to know whether Hou Jingbo was still alive or not.
Murong Yun frowned. He couldn't tell whether Lin Mei's question was fake or real.
"He died. He died in the most miserable way."
Upon hearing the answer, Lin Mei's face suddenly broke out into a desolate smile. In the midst of this desolation, there was genuine happiness.
"Great, Hou Jingbo is dead!" This scumbag has finally died! "
Lin Mei laughed heartily. Luo Jianjian propped herself up and stepped forward, grabbing her wrist.
"Lin Mei, tell me the truth, did you kill those people from the slave market?"
Hearing Luo Jianjian's question, the smile on Lin Mei's face suddenly froze and fell.
"Boss, you suspect me of killing someone?" I really want to kill those people, but didn't you say so? Association of 100 have rules, and they have rules that are comparable to armies. "
"You only have to ask, do you want to kill me or not?"
Luo Jianjian tried her best to ask again. This imposing manner really scared Lin Mei to death. Stunned, she looked at Luo Jianjian and shook her head uncertainly.
After all, even if he didn't kill with a saber himself, he had entrusted Master Poison to do it for him. Furthermore, Master Poison was Luo Jianjian's sworn enemy. Lin Mei was unable to say what happened yesterday. She did not have the courage.
This sort of thing was tantamount to betrayal.
However, it was this hesitation that caused Luo Jianjian's originally firm trust in Lin Mei to waver.
"Really?"
By asking three more questions, she was able to prove that she didn't trust Lin Mei's words. This caused Lin Mei to be extremely injured.2
"Boss, you don't believe me?"
