"Ahem, wait a minute." Liang Yuanque interrupted him.
"According to what you said, is Mr. Lin a crazy ball? Did you think he was abnormal at that time?"
"Well, I... I thought," Er Yanzi's eyes were a little dodgeful, "anyway, I think the whole Lin family is not normal."
Liang Yuanque frowned slightly, taking in all his expressions.
"One more question. Just at one glance on the street, how did you tell that we were from the Lin family?"
Er Yanzi sighed, "Uncle Wang from East Street came to me yesterday and said that two people invited by the Lin family wanted to see me."
Liang Yuanque felt speechless for a while. All the instructions he gave to Lao Wang yesterday were thrown into the river.
"...I just thought about it. It was because of what happened back then. I took the money, and it's not like I didn't say anything. Why don't I just run away!"
Er Yanzi continued.
"Okay, okay," Liang Yuanque waved his hand, "Stop talking about this and continue talking about what happened back then."
Back then, Er Yanzi was so frightened that he peed when he saw that big bucket of human blood. With so much blood, someone must have been drained!
However, Mr. Lin explained to him that these were just pig blood, so he could use it with confidence.
It is difficult to distinguish between pig blood and human blood with the naked eye. Even if he said so, Er Yanzi was afraid to use it.
Mr. Lin asked him to plan to use this blood. The amount should be enough to paint these rooms.
These rooms must not be finished in one go, so Mr. Lin asked Er Yanzi to paint one room a day, perhaps to avoid being discovered, and asked him to take the pig blood back after he finished it every day.
As a result, Er Yanzi was so nervous that he spilled pig blood on the way after work on the first day.
He was worried that Mr. Lin would find out about this, and he would probably get beaten up, not to mention getting the money.
Anyway, pig blood is not a rare thing. He found the pig butcher early the next morning, bought a bucket of pig blood with his own money, took it back and continued working.
This really allowed him to cope with it, until all the work was completed, Mr. Lin didn't find any clues, and Er Yanzi got his wages smoothly.
Liang Yuanque narrowed his eyes. So, there should be mercury in every room.
But because Er Yanzi changed the "paint" midway, only the young master and his family died of mercury poisoning.
The murderer behind the scenes probably noticed that there was a flaw in the paint later on, so he started to use other means to kill the Lin family one by one.
That being the case... Liang Yuanque looked at Er Yanzi and made a judgment in his mind.
Seeing Er Yanzi stop saying anything, Liang Yuanque raised his eyebrows.
"Finished?"
"Well, that's all, that's all I participated in!"
Er Yanzi was obviously getting more and more nervous.
Liang Yuanque nodded, "Since you promised Mr. Lin not to tell this matter, why are you telling me now?"
Er Yanzi was stunned for a moment.
"This, this, if you want to put it this way, you were invited by the Lin family, and you are considered the Lin family. It doesn't matter if I tell you, right?"
"Oh, that's right," Liang Yuanque smiled inexplicably, "So when Mr. Lin asked you, did he say that the Lin family could inform you?"
Cold sweat was visible on Er Yanzi's forehead, and Liang Yuanque's pressure was so strong that he subconsciously wanted to escape again.
But he knew in his heart that even if he ran away again, he would be blocked back. He couldn't play with the child in front of him.
"No, no," Er Yanzi's voice changed slightly, which was a sign of extreme nervousness.
"Let's be honest, Master Lin is dead, so his explanation is not that important..."
Liang Yuanque slammed the table. The teahouse was very empty, so this was considered a loud noise, and the guests at a few tables around him looked over.
Feeling more eyes coming towards her, Er Yanzi became even more nervous, as if her heart was being squeezed by an invisible big hand.
In intimidation, using the surrounding environment to exert oppression is also a very effective way.
The simplest example is that when someone wants someone to have a psychological breakdown, they will strip him naked and throw him on the street for everyone to see.
No one with a normal mind can bear this method, but the time they can endure varies depending on their ability to bear it.
Zhuang Youjie was also startled, wondering what Liang Yuanque's sudden intention was.
Could it be that Er Yanzi didn't tell the truth?
Except that he couldn't figure out what Mr. Lin's intention was, there was nothing unreasonable about his story.
It can even match the clues Liang Yuanque and the others have investigated so far.
However, Zhuang Youjie is not a talkative idiot. He can't help at this time, but he can do it without causing trouble.
He didn't ask anything, followed Liang Yuanque's intention, and glared at Er Yanzi angrily.
Er Yanzi's psychological defense had been broken through, but he didn't know what he said wrong.
Maybe everything he said was wrong.
Liang Yuanque lowered his voice. The sound he made in this situation was very inconsistent with his appearance.
"How did you know that Master Lin was dead?"
Er Yanzi's pupils suddenly dilated. He never expected that even though he was nervous, he could give a reason, but it would be the most suspicious.
Zhuang Youjie also understood that Mr. Lin's death was actually just a speculation based on the current situation.
It's just that they subconsciously regard this as the ending.
However, in fact, Mr. Lin, who is neither alive nor dead, is still missing.
How could Er Yanzi be so sure that Mr. Lin was dead?
Er Yanzi was sweating more and more on his forehead. He shivered and pulled up his sleeves to wipe his sweat.
"Master, I'm not cursing him. He hasn't been away from home for a day or two. There are rumors on the street that he is dead. I just heard people say that."
After saying that, he was still afraid that Liang Yuanque wouldn't believe it, so he added,
"There are rumors all over the city about the Lin family's affairs. Even a three-year-old child is talking about their family's affairs. You can't just take issue with me!"
Liang Yuanque's face was still gloomy. Looking at his appearance, Er Yanzi's eyes almost trembled.
"I……"
But Liang Yuanque suddenly smiled, his face turned from sunny to gloomy, and he was even more horrified than before.
"Oh, that's it!"
As he spoke, he pushed the plate of snacks in front of Er Yanzi, "Here, have something to eat."
Er Yanzi didn't know what he wanted to do. He was trembling with fear, but he still picked it up and ate it obediently.
Watching him eating, Liang Yuanque added, "What you just told me, not only do you think Mr. Lin can't trouble you, but you are also afraid that I will beat you, right?"
Er Yanzi was stunned, then nodded again,
"Who knows what you can do? Even if Mr. Lin is not dead and wants to cause trouble for me in the future, I have to solve your troubles today."
"You are very aware of current affairs, and I quite admire you."
Liang Yuanque watched him finish the snacks and asked him to leave.
As soon as they walked out of the teahouse, Liang Yuanque suddenly asked Er Yanzi,
"You shouldn't resist the beating, right?"
"ah?"
Er Yanzi was stunned, and then his mouth was covered and he was forcefully dragged into a side alley!
