Lin Yunsheng's tough attitude made the two agents a bit overwhelmed. In the past, the suspects they encountered either tried to resist or strongly denied involvement. This was the first time like this.
Gu Qi narrowed his eyes. Interrogation is a process of psychological competition. The ultimate goal of the interrogator is to break the psychological defense of the interrogated person so that the other party loses his reason and normal judgment.
From the beginning, he created an environment that Lin Yunsheng was uncomfortable with, and successfully established a dominant position. Unexpectedly, this person quickly used others to reverse the unfavorable situation.
This person is not easy to deal with.
The temporary interrogation room fell into silence. Both sides were waiting for the other party to make another move. Whoever spoke first at this time would mean admitting failure. Obviously, this was something neither Gu Qi nor Lin Yunsheng could accept.
At this time, Zuo Zhong, who was watching the show, began to tap the pages of the book in his hand. The loud banging sound touched everyone's nerves. After a few dozen seconds, he raised his head and nodded to the agent with a smile.
"Okay, you can go out first. Don't be so nervous. We invited Mr. Lin here for questioning, not for interrogation. Don't come in unless we ask you. Let's talk alone."
After saying that, he raised his hand to the chair in front of the desk, gesturing for Lin Yunsheng to sit down, just like a host greeting guests, immediately relaxing the atmosphere and seducing the other party.
Lin Yunsheng's sitting down means obeying the order, and the subsequent conversation will return to the previous role of the person being questioned. Not sitting down means not cooperating with the work, and he will become more passive.
Lin Yunsheng noticed this, hesitated for a while and finally chose to sit down obediently. As a former member of the state machine, he knew very well how powerful a country was.
"Look, isn't this great?"
Zuo Zhong smiled and clapped his hands, leaned back on the chair and said in a casual tone: "Mr. Lin, judging from your reaction just now, you should have come here often when Dean Lu was alive. People cannot be resurrected, so please forgive me."
Lin Yunsheng didn't expect him to say that. He nodded for a moment and relaxed a little. He felt that this young man was easier to deal with than the half-bald middle-aged man. At least he knew how to respect people.
Then he explained: "Sir, the relationship between me and Mrs. Ru is really innocent. Someone must have some objections to me taking so much reward money, and deliberately spread rumors to frame Mrs. Ru and me."
This is the reason why one person is a good person and one person is a bad person. One person intimidates the suspect and the other pretends to take care of the suspect. Most people will tend to trust the protector and talk to him.
"Well, I understand what you mean."
Hearing this, Zuo Zhong pretended to understand you very well, and then spread his hands helplessly: "But since someone has reported it to us, according to the rules, we have to investigate. Please understand this.
Otherwise, the higher ups will blame you, and neither you nor the two of us can bear the blame. In a sense, we are now grasshoppers tied to the same vine, right? "
Then, without waiting for Lin Yunsheng to agree or disagree, he said sincerely: "And as soon as you came in, I was sure that you are a person who values friendship and loyalty, and the tears in your eyes cannot deceive others.
I personally don't believe that you and Shashi had an underground affair, so in order to clear your suspicions as soon as possible and give the dead Shashi a clean slate, you should cooperate with our work. "
In just a few words, Zuo Zhong forced a loyal persona onto Lin Yunsheng's head. This persona had both advantages and disadvantages, and its use in interrogations often produced unexpected results.
After receiving such a compliment from him, the other person's expression became obviously much better, his tense body slowly relaxed, and he no longer refused to talk to them. This was a good start for the inquiry.
"Please ask, sir, and I will cooperate."
Lin Yunsheng lowered his head and considered for a while. When he raised his head, his tone became firm. This firmness may mean that he is confident enough to handle the inquiry, or he really wants to end the matter as soon as possible.
Zuo Zhong, who had already planned it, did not rush to ask questions, but continued to strengthen Lin Yunsheng's character: "Mr. Lin, you are a truly good person. I am not flattering you. Many people in the Lu family say so.
You are the first to get up and the last to go to bed every day, just to protect Dean Lu's safety when going out and returning home, and to let your colleagues sleep a little longer. I admire people like you very much.
It's a pity that good people usually don't get good rewards. Just like this time, someone fabricated rumors about you and Sha Shi. But as the saying goes, there is no smoke without fire. Think about whether you have done poorly in the past.
Only when we find the crux of the problem can we give an explanation to the whistleblower and the higher-ups. Don’t worry, no other person will know what you say here. I guarantee you. "
Zuo Zhong's tone was unusually sincere, and he seemed to be very considerate of the other party. He even poured a cup of hot water for Lin Yunsheng. This was a taboo in interrogation work, as it could easily cause the suspect to injure himself.
Seeing this, Gu Qi moved his lips without saying anything. He folded his arms and looked at Lin Yunsheng coldly. He played the red-faced role to the end, but his mind began to think about the deep meaning of the deputy director's actions.
"Sir, I really don't know."
Faced with Zuo Zhong's inquiry, Lin Yunsheng replied with a wry smile: "Mrs. Ru and I rarely meet. There are many rules in the Lu family. Strong men like us cannot be alone with the women in our family.
Even if we want to meet, we must be accompanied by two female servants. We have no chance to meet in private. How could we not do something well? Sir, please clarify. "
What he said was the truth. The back houses of wealthy families were tightly guarded, just like the Zuo family. Male servants could not even enter the second door without permission. Although the Lu Mansion was a foreign-style mansion, it had all the rules it should have.
In later generations, it is often said that a servant fell in love with a lady at first sight, but that is all nonsense. I am afraid that the lady had already gone to see the King of Hell before they met, and the government knew about it without even asking.
Zuo Zhong was thinking about this and asked: "Mr. Lin, you said we rarely meet each other, but that doesn't mean we never meet. How many times have you and Sha Shi met? Where and when did they meet."
"Four or five times, I can't remember the specific time clearly. For example, when my wife went to burn incense in a temple outside the city, I and several other bodyguards were responsible for escorting her." Lin Yunsheng thought for a while and replied.
A temple outside the city?
Burn incense?
For some reason, Zuo Zhong thought of the Songzi Temple in Jiaxing. This was probably another black temple that used a Buddhist sanctuary as a cover, but was actually a hotel. It was a good place for a tryst.
In addition, it would be more interesting if Shashi was burnt with the incense of praying for children. In ancient times, many women from big families went to temples to pray for children, and they received blessings as soon as they prayed. As for the reason, the Buddha said: It cannot be said.
Perhaps seeing the unserious look on Zuo Zhong's face, Lin Yunsheng said hurriedly: "Sir, don't get me wrong, we are going to Qixia Temple, and Mrs. Ru has always been under the protection of us.
Besides, Qixia Temple is a holy land of Buddhism, and it is full of enlightened monks. It is impossible for them to do such sneaky things. The folk sayings are not trustworthy, and no one will allow Nujuan to spend the night outside. "
Listening to Lin Yusheng's words, Zuo Zhong was secretly wondering whether the other party and Shashi were really in love and were only polite. It seemed that nothing could be learned about this matter, so let's try in another direction.
So he shook his head with a smile: "Mr. Lin, don't be anxious. I believe what you said. Sha's ability to die for Dean Lu shows her fidelity and her fidelity, which is highly praised by the people of Jinling.
But I have a question I don’t know whether to ask or not. Why was a loyal and reliable bodyguard like you not the first to arrive in the room when something happened to Dean Lu? You and Dr. Deng are right next door.
Logically speaking, he is an ordinary person without military training, and his actions are definitely inferior to yours. You were neither sick nor injured in those two days, so your reaction speed should not be so slow. "
Zuo Zhong changed the topic and bypassed Sha Shi to talk about Lu Yong'an's death. Previously, he had put Lin Yunsheng on a very high pedestal, and at the same time, the other party had acquiesced in the character of being loyal and a good person, so there was a contradiction.
Lin Yunsheng must give a perfect reason for this question, otherwise everything he said before will become a lie. The interrogation is not only a psychological battle, but also a logical confrontation.
Sure enough, after hearing this question, Lin Yunsheng's expression changed slightly, and he muttered twice and chose to remain silent. The breakthrough in the case was finally opened, and the next thing to do was to pursue the victory.
Zuo Chong winked at his old partner, and Gu Qi snorted tacitly: "If you don't want others to know, you have to do it yourself. According to our investigation, you were the last one to arrive at the death scene that day.
Please explain, is it far from the fourth floor to the second floor? It takes a strictly trained soldier several minutes, or are you the murderer of Dean Lu, right? "
Gu Qi slammed the table, and the loud noise frightened Lin Yunsheng. He quickly denied: "It's not me, Dean Lu is very kind to me and the Lin family, and no one can kill him if I go to kill him.
The reason why I finally arrived at the scene was that I was not in the house at all. Dean Lu was a little uneasy when he came back that night and asked me to patrol the area, saying that if there was a thief, he would just shoot him away.
He also asked me not to mention this matter to anyone. When he had an accident, I was squatting in the distance and heard calls and noises coming from the backyard. It was that he had passed away. "
Was Lu Yong'an very uneasy before his death?
Gu Qi and Zuo Zhong looked at each other. This was a new situation. No one from the Lu Mansion had mentioned this, whether it was the police station or the Secret Service's inquiry. Is Lin Yunsheng telling the truth?
If it is true, what is Lu Yong'an afraid of and worried about? Is this related to his death from an overdose of digitalis? The fog hidden behind this eucalyptus is getting thicker and thicker.
Zuo Zhong's training went through the clues, and then said word by word: "Mr. Lin, the last question is that you and Sha Shi come from the same place and have been childhood sweethearts since childhood. Am I right?"
Lin Yunsheng panicked. He didn't expect that the other party even knew about this matter. This was the biggest secret between himself and Sha. Where did these people find out about it? No, she must not be implicated.
This thought flashed through his mind, and the next second he quickly stood up and rushed to the study wall on the side, hitting his head against the hard cement wall, with a trace of hope and relief in his eyes.
"Bang~"
With the sound of a gunshot, a ball of blood appeared on Lin Yunsheng's right leg. He stumbled and lost speed, falling crookedly to the ground. The little spy outside the door rushed into the room and controlled him.
Zuo Zhong held up his gun and sneered. Did the other party think that he was a fake and actually wanted to commit suicide? He didn't even ask me if I would agree with the gun in my hand. He looked at Lin Yunsheng who was ashen and ordered.
"Take it back to the office and keep it under strict supervision!"
