As the young master of the escort agency, Qi Wenhan had seen all sorts of people. He had always been very confident in his judgment of people, and had never made any mistakes.
Furthermore, if this Ling Yi really was a traitor, why would he dare to return alone after surrendering to the pirates without a second word? There were only two possibilities. Either he was not afraid of death, or there was something else to this.
Although Qi Wenhan was still relatively objective, his expression did not look any better. After all, he had suffered for an entire month because of this incident. It was only yesterday that he had finally gathered the 300,000 spiritual jades as compensation to the Hong Merchant Association and sent it to Wei Zhaotong. Only then did the matter come to an end.
Qi Wenhan had never expected that Ling Yi would return alone right after he had dealt with the problem outside. This was perfect. After all, it was impossible to know a man's heart. Today was the perfect opportunity for him to confront Li Yanji and Guan Zhiyuan face to face. The impact of this incident was too great, and he had to clarify the cause and effect. Otherwise, he would not let this matter rest!
"Li Yanji, Guan Zhiyuan, Ling Yi, all three of you are involved. In front of everyone, explain everything clearly. This incident must come to an end today!" Qi Wenhan said to the crowd in a low voice.
"Yes, young master, I'll speak first!" Li Yanji hurriedly said. Anyone with a bit of experience would know that this kind of thing was advantageous to the party who spoke first. This was because everyone would have a preconceived impression of what was going on. As long as there were no major mistakes in logic, they would naturally be in an undefeatable position.
Furthermore, he and Guan Zhiyuan were veteran permanent escorts of the Heaven's Equal Escort Agency. Their experience was far beyond that of a newly joined escort like Lin Yi. No matter how astute and fair Qi Wenhan was, it was inevitable that there would be a gap between them. It was only natural that he would believe the words of the two of them more.
The sudden development of the situation was something that the two of them had never expected. Now that things had come to this, the two of them had nowhere else to go. They could only think of a way to slander Lin Yi in front of everyone so that he would not be able to defend himself!
Previously, when the two of them had just escaped, they insisted that Lin Yi and his companion were the main culprits of this incident. Taking advantage of Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao's absence, Li Yanji and Guan Zhiyuan took the opportunity to pour dirty water on them. If they did not do this and others knew that Li Yanji and Guan Zhiyuan had surrendered without a fight, they would no longer be able to work as escorts in the future. At the very least, they would no longer be able to establish themselves in the Equal of Heaven Escort Agency.
And now, the two of them were in an even more difficult situation. If everyone knew that the two of them not only surrendered without a fight, but also slandered their companion, it would be a serious matter. It wouldn't be as simple as losing their jobs. According to the rules of Jianghu, this kind of treachery was punishable by three knives and six holes!
Therefore, no matter what, Li Yanji and Guan Zhiyuan had to convict Lin Yi today. Moreover, it had to be impeccable, leaving him speechless.
Hearing this, Qi Wenhan nodded indifferently. In any case, the three of them were going to confront each other. As long as the truth was revealed, it didn't matter to him who spoke first.
"That day, we departed from Weiwan City. Logically speaking, the escort route should be strictly confidential. Other than Young Master and Shopkeeper Wei, there were only the four of us escorts. Moreover, because the route we chose was very secluded, coupled with the thick sea fog, under normal circumstances, it was impossible for us to meet anyone, let alone pirates. Unless …" Li Yanji was afraid that he would make a mistake, so he weighed every word he said. When his words fell into the ears of the others, they sounded very reasonable.
"Unless what? Continue, "Qi Wenhan said coldly.
"Yes, under such circumstances, we were still ambushed by pirates. There's only one explanation, someone is a traitor!" Li Yanji said decisively. This was not something he had made up on the spot. After all, there was indeed something fishy about the appearance of the pirates. It would be too much of a coincidence to say that these pirates had not been prepared and had just happened to pass by that desolate place by accident.
Hearing this, everyone nodded their heads. This analysis was reasonable. They were all experienced Jianghu people. Under such circumstances, the possibility of a traitor being a traitor was indeed very high.
"That's right. At that time, when the four pirates at the peak of the Golden Elixir realm appeared, Brother Li and I didn't even have time to react. Ling Yi and his Junior Sister surrendered without saying anything and even helped the pirates to keep an eye on the two of us. Two against six, we had no choice but to let them do as they pleased. It's obvious who the traitor is!" Guan Zhiyuan followed up and secretly exchanged glances with Li Yanji. The two of them obviously felt that this explanation was impeccable and were extremely pleased with themselves.
For a moment, everyone's gaze was once again focused on Lin Yi. According to Li Guan and Guan Zhiyuan's explanation, Lin Yi was really going to be accused of being a traitor.
"Ling Yi, what do you say?" Qi Wenhan looked at Lin Yi and asked. Regardless of whether he believed the explanation of Li Guan and Guan Zhiyuan, since it was a confrontation, he naturally had to give Lin Yi a chance to speak.
Lin Yi smiled indifferently and turned his head to look at Li Guan and Guan Zhiyuan. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you two done?"
"Yes, why? Are you still trying to quibble? The facts are clear, there's nothing else to explain, right? " Li Yanji laughed coldly and immediately said to Qi Wenhan, "Young master, he has admitted it. Please punish him and severely punish the traitor as a warning to others!"
Qi Wenhan frowned. Although it sounded like it was indeed the case, the fact that Li Guan and Guan Zhiyuan could not wait to convict Ling Yi was a little thought-provoking.
"Hehe, are you two stupid? Brother Qi asked me just now and not the two of you. You are so anxious to convict me. Even a fool can see that there's something fishy about this. Are you feeling guilty? "Lin Yi said calmly and calmly.
"Feeling guilty? Both of us are speaking the truth. What is there to feel guilty about? Since things have already come to this, do you still want to accuse us of framing an innocent person? Hmph, I advise you not to be too naive! "Guan Zhiyuan said with a cold smile.
"From the beginning to the end, it's only the words of the two of you. Furthermore, there's no evidence to speak of. Do I still need to accuse you? Do you think everyone is listening to a storyteller and can make up whatever you want? "Lin Yi could not help but be amused as he looked at the two of them mischievously.
"Evidence?" Guan Zhiyuan was suddenly at a loss for words. His expression stiffened and he did not know what to say.
"Why is there no evidence!" Li Yanji suddenly rolled his eyes and pointed at Lin Yi as he vowed, "There are two irrefutable pieces of evidence that are enough to prove that you are a traitor!"
"Oh? Let's hear it. " Lin Yi was not anxious at all. The way he looked at Li Guan and Guan Zhiyuan was no different from watching a monkey on the street. He wanted to see what kind of tricks this guy could come up with. (The novel "School Belle's Bodyguard" will have more fresh content on the official WeChat platform.
