Su Yi's words were not a lie, but a sincere admiration.

Jiang Mingyan played a beautiful trick again.

Sure enough, Jiang Mingyan knew that there was a "traitor" among the crowd.

Just as Huang Jing said, he silently divided the teams into two teams that he recognized, relying only on the separation of a wall and subtle influence.

He, Yang Biao, two people from Xuanmen, Zhou Qizhen and Huang Jing formed a group of four.

He, Shen Meihua and Du Wei form a group of three, which means that he thinks these three people are most likely to be "weird".

He walked in front first, taking Yang Biao with him. Zhou Qizhen and Huang Jing, as the two masters of Xuanmen, naturally had to protect him behind them. Jiang Mingyan had already given Zhou Qizhen a talisman. Zhou Qizhen did not show it on his face, but he might have guessed Jiang Mingyan's plan in his heart.

He did this by taking advantage of his own psychology.

The ballad says,

It’s midnight, it’s midnight, the evil ghosts come out of their cages and pick people off.

A bloody mist filled the streets of the town, and every night someone was killed.

The faceless statue turns around, indicating which one to hunt.

The hunted person has nowhere to escape and his soul will be taken away by the evil spirit.

Then naturally, with Jiang Mingyan's intelligence, she would be able to figure out if there was a "ghost" among them.

And if the traitor has the means to kill, then it must be according to the ballad.

One person per night, that's pretty accurate.

He decided that he could only kill one person per night.

Therefore, the best solution is to kill the enemy before finding the talisman.

Through Zhou Qizhen's mouth, he told everyone the most likely location of the talisman, and then naturally led everyone forward.

Even the disguised corpse was designed to make Huang Jing and others move naturally.

He expected that he would take action before entering the room and getting the talisman, and when some commotion occurred.

It really is a calculation that goes to the core.

"You all saw the black shadow that appeared out of nowhere and attacked Taoist Zhou." Jiang Mingyan was calm.

"We saw it. We were all there." Yang Biao said affirmatively, then frowned and glanced at Shen Meihua.

"She must not be Meihua. Let's go together. How..."

"It's possible that he was replaced along the way." Jiang Mingyan interrupted Yang Biao.

Zhou Qizheng continued, "It is common for strange creatures to possess people."

"This..." Yang Biao looked at Shen Meihua, who was shaking her head gently.

"Don't worry, Donor Yang. If she is an evil spirit, then it means that the real Donor Shen is in danger, and we can go to rescue her. If she is possessed, then what we have to do is to exorcise the evil spirit from her. Either way, it's for her own good." Zhou Qi said.

"The problem lies among the three of you." Jiang Mingyan affirmed, looking at the three of them with a sharp gaze.

"Humph, I told you, it wasn't me, it was one of them. I think it was this kid named Su. He came here alone, and no one can prove it. Maybe he has always been in this village."

"Also, don't you know this guy named Su? How did you two know each other?" Du Wei suddenly remembered something.

"We met once on the way to Wuliu Town a few hours ago, but I didn't expect to meet you again here, right, Su Yi?" Jiang Mingyan said.

Su Yi felt awe-inspiring.

This guy actually wanted to attack my weak spot. Now I have been forced into a desperate situation, like being roasted on a fire.

But he didn't give up and continued to squeeze himself.

There is no doubt that this question is definitely a trap!

No matter how I answer, there is a high possibility that I will fall into his trap and give the wrong answer.

However, if I choose to remain silent, it would be too obvious, and it would be tantamount to directly admitting that I am deliberately avoiding the question.

In this dilemma,

Su Yi made a prompt decision and said, "Yes, it is indeed a coincidence."

"Officer Liu Anyue wasn't there at the time, right?"

Su Yi couldn't be sure whether Officer Liu Anyue was there, but he could make some analysis.

If it was really a background memory, if I was with Liu Anyue and Jiang Mingyan, then it would be a threesome.

According to current logic, most of them are two people.

And if my background information was known by two people, then I would be at a great disadvantage.

There is another reason why Su Yi dared to say this.

Regardless of whether what he said was right or wrong, regardless of whether Jiang Mingyan really met him or not.

It doesn’t matter whether his information was obtained through Jiang Mingyan’s talent.

You must have a positive answer.

Because, even if Jiang Mingyan said he lied, then at most he would become his opposite.

Instead of being beaten to death with a stick.

And with such a direct answer and the mention of "Liu Anyue", perhaps it would hit Jiang Mingyan's target.

Jiang Mingyan looked at Su Yi in surprise, "Yeah...that's right."

Was the bet right?

Su Yi remained noncommittal. Regardless of whether Jiang Mingyan chose to expose him or not, he still had something on his mind.

Because the game is now complicated, it is not necessarily just about you and the good guys.

Even he still had to kill the accomplice.

The situation is rather chaotic, and Jiang Mingyan's temporary relaxation may not mean that his bet is right, so he needs to be on guard.

Su Yi shook his head: "So, Detective Jiang, have you figured out who among us is the ghost?"

Su Yi tested directly. He wanted to see which side Jiang Mingyan stood on.

Being so decisive and actively looking for the existence of "gui", it is highly likely that he is on the side of the good guys, rather than his accomplice.

So what is his judgment?

Su Yi was actually very calm, because he knew that although this black shadow was a bit strange, it could not actually play a decisive role in the whole matter.

Jiang Mingyan said, "It's not so quick to draw conclusions. Let's hear what you have to say. When you were outside just now, did you feel anything unusual? For example, did the people around you suddenly disappear for a while?"

Shen Meihua thought for a moment and replied,

"I didn't feel anything, but Du Wei was on my left, and Su Yi was on my right rear. I noticed that their candles were always lit, but maybe because Su Yi was closer to me, his candle looked brighter."

When Du Wei heard Shen Meihua say this, her face immediately fell: "What are you talking about! Little girl! What do you mean he is closer to you? Am I not right next to you? Oh! I understand! You must be in the same group!"

Of course Su Yi knew why Shen Meihua said that. It was not because she was Du Wei's accomplice, but because the direction in which he placed the candles was towards Shen Meihua. When he came back, he deliberately quickened his pace, turning three steps into one, and he walked directly to Shen Meihua's side in just one step.

This way, Shen Meihua would feel that she was not far away from her.

The subconscious feeling of taking three steps to get to her side is different from taking one step to get to her side.

So, Shen Meihua completely misjudged the distance in that second.

After all, it was only a short time difference of one second, and it was difficult for Shen Meihua to detect the subtle changes.

"Is that so, Su Yi?"

Jiang Mingyan looked at Su Yi again, with a hint of smile in her eyes.
