7115 Test, question?

“Aiya, young city Lord Lu, why are you saying this? If brother Sima is here, this little brother will lose face!”

Nangong Yimeng was a little embarrassed as she opened her fan and fanned herself a few times, but her eyes were secretly looking at Lin Yi.

Lu Butong was the same, observing Lin Yi’s reaction as he spoke!

The vault theft case was the key word, and their test was still not over. If Lin Yi’s expression changed, their suspicions would increase!

Unfortunately, Lin Yi’s face didn’t change at all. He still maintained his standard smile.

“So the vault theft case was brother Nangong’s responsibility. Then we really can’t let it go so easily. I’ve heard about this matter too, why don’t you have any clues?”

Lin Yi’s performance was perfect, and he shouldn’t have caught Nangong Yimeng’s attention. Especially with his arrangements for the vault theft case, he shouldn’t have been suspected.

What he did not know was that his setup was indeed perfect and had successfully misled boss Mei’s investigation direction. However, boss Mei was afraid that Nangong Yimeng would suspect that he was embezzling the place, so he hid the clues that might be the work of a mole.

Not only that, but boss Mei also pointed the blame at Wu yucao and the others, and Lin Yi’s appearance naturally came into view.

It was a bit funny to say that it was such a twist and turn, and if Lin Yi knew the reason, he could only sigh to the sky. He’d used all his tricks, but he didn’t expect to lose to a random Shuai Guo!

“Indeed, there are no clues. I’m really vexed. Because of this, I wanted to take the opportunity to travel with brother Sima to relax. Unfortunately, young city Lord Lu doesn’t seem to want to let go!”

Nangong Yimeng said in a joking tone,””It seems like I can only say goodbye to brother Sima this time. Next time, I’ll ask young city Lord Lu to organize a party and we’ll go out of the city to play together.”

“Alright, this little brother will be looking forward to traveling with my two brothers next time!”

Lin Yi let out a breath of relief inside, but put on a regretful expression on the surface. At the same time, he acted like they hit it off at first sight and continued to chat with the two.

Lu Butong and Nangong Yimeng did not find anything after their probing, so they did not waste any more time. After bidding farewell, they brought their men back to the city, but they suddenly stopped after walking for a short distance.

“Young city Lord, why did you stop all of a sudden?”

Nangong Yimeng looked at Lu Butong with a strange expression, not understanding what was happening.

“Something’s wrong! Something’s not right!”

Lu Butong rubbed his chin and narrowed his eyes, thinking carefully,””That Sima Yi’s performance was impeccable, but I just feel that it’s a little inappropriate. People from the Sima clan should not be like this! And …”

“And what?”

Nangong Yimeng furrowed her brows. If Sima Yi was really an imposter, then he would lose a lot of face.

After two consecutive probes, he still couldn’t see through the other party’s true face. How could he dare to say that his vision was unique in the future?

“Let’s not talk about it! Turn back! Catch up to Sima Yi and the others!”

Lu Butong was a little anxious and immediately brought his men back to chase after the four.

It hadn’t been that long since they left, and they weren’t that far away-they should’ve caught up to the four of them very soon.

However, after chasing for a while, the forest had become dense, and there was no longer a path on the ground. They still did not catch up to anyone, not even leaving a trace!

Lin Yi and the other three seemed to have disappeared into thin air, disappearing without a trace.

Lu Butong was extremely vexed. He sent his men and Nangong Yimeng’s guards to spread out and search the area, hoping to find some traces. Unfortunately, they still found nothing even after a long time.

Nangong Yimeng had asked Lu Butong a few times, but Lu Butong kept avoiding the question and didn’t say it directly. In the end, Nangong Yimeng didn’t ask anymore.

In fact, Lin Yi’s disappearance was suspicious in itself, and there was no need to ask for any clues. This was a huge suspicion.

Why did they disappear in such a short time? Was it to avoid the two of them?

It was really F * cking ghost!

“Young city governor Lu, since we can’t find her, let’s forget about it. Let’s go back first!”

Nangong Yimeng was getting impatient, especially when Lu Butong was being so secretive and unwilling to explain his thoughts. He felt like he was wasting his time!

It was meaningless!

Even though Nangong Yimeng did not show it on her face, her tone was still a little strange, and Lu Butong could feel a hint of dissatisfaction.

“Yimeng, it’s not that I don’t want to tell you … I just can’t be sure!”

Lu Butong pulled on His Majesty’s Mount and said after thinking for a while,””There’s nothing wrong with that Sima Yi, but I still feel that he’s different from the Sima clan in the rumors! That’s secondary. The most important thing is that his three followers are too calm!”

“You mean Wu yucao and the other two?”

Nangong Yimeng frowned slightly. These three people were suspects in the vault theft case. When Lu Butong mentioned them, he immediately felt that something was wrong,””You didn’t spread the news of the fire in the patrol team’s prison, did you?”

“It’s not something to be proud of, so how could it be spread everywhere?”

Lu Butong snorted and said unhappily,””Of course, those who should know already know! You won’t know what you shouldn’t know!”

The patrol team was under the control of the city Lord’s office in name, but in reality, the people inside were all infiltrated by various major forces. The city Lord’s office turned a blind eye to this. After all, they were only a team to maintain the security of Luling city. Everyone could rest assured if the major forces were to mix in.

The elites directly under the city Lord’s mansion would never show up in public, so the major forces knew about the burning of a person in the prison cell, but the people outside would not receive the news.

“If that’s the case, then there’s a problem with the three of them! No matter what, Lin Ying is still their companion, but he didn’t even go back to visit them once. Even after they got close to the Sima clan, they didn’t ask Sima Yi to save Lin Ying!”

Nangong Yimeng was only in the dark and didn’t notice this flaw. Now that he was reminded, he immediately thought things through.”Is this because they don’t care about Lin Ying? Or have you already received the news that Lin Ying was burned to death?”

There was another possibility. Lin Ying was burned to death by the three of them! It was to cut off suspicion!

However, the possibility of this happening was too small, so Nangong Yimeng didn’t mention it.

It wasn’t that the possibility of Wu yucao and the other two killing Lin Yi was too low, but that boss Mei’s men were still watching them that night. It was impossible to do something so secretive without being watched!

Nangong Yimeng didn’t know that boss Mei’s words about keeping an eye on the three of them that night were nonsense … However, Wu yucao and the other two really didn’t have the ability to sneak into the patrol team’s prison and set fire to a few people!
