Chapter 7 — All Things Speak

Director Ly's expression changed slightly.

“Are you saying that the lady pushed her own son down the stairs?”

"No one has free time here to mess with you. Do you know where this is? This is the Kim family!"

I said: “I just asked casually.”

“Ask casually?”

He laughed coldly: "This is a matter of harming honor."

“I see clearly that you are deliberately seducing!”

I replied: "I can tell whether someone is telling the truth or lying, so I need to ask." Hua Thu Nguyet asked curiously: "So now that you've finished asking, did she tell the truth?" I shook my head. The voice is very solid, but the content is shocking enough.

"That's a lie. Little master was pushed down the stairs by his wife."

"She lied, the maid who testified in her statement was also a fake, it is estimated that she was bribed. Online transactions will be investigated, so they are likely to use cash. Now go search the maid's room, maybe you will find it."

Mrs. Kim's face darkened: "Confused! I believe whatever you say, my grandson is the only child of the daughter-in-law in the Kim family, how could he do such a thing?!" A flash of panic flashed in Mrs. Kim's eyes. In just a blink of an eye, she quickly returned to normal. She said seriously:

“I know you want to prove yourself, but do you know the consequences of lying?”

I looked at her.

"You can send someone to take a look, don't you dare?"

Mrs. Kim was made fun of because she was angry: "What qualifications do you have? Guard! Immediately kick her out!" The old lady shook her head, not stopping. Director Ly stood beside him with his arms crossed, watching the joke.

“Wait.”

The old man was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly spoke: "Send someone to check it out, she is so sure, maybe she really has some bravery."

“Dad?!” Mrs. Kim did not dare to believe it.

The old man waved his hand.

“I'm very curious.”

Every second seemed to last a year. Very quickly, the guard returned, holding a jade bracelet wrapped in newspaper in his hand. Luxurious and noble, transparent colors. Not something a maid could have. Mrs. Kim's face flashed and turned pale. The next second, she suddenly reached out and slapped the close maid.

"I said, why can't my bracelet be found? It turns out it was the thief!"

The maid's mouth trembled, not daring to speak. Mrs. Kim turned her head to look at the old woman and the old man, her lips moving a few times.

"This... also blames me, the bracelet was lost and I didn't have time to find it. I thought my memory was bad, I forgot where it was, it turned out someone stole it."

"Miss Hoac, why are you lying and slandering me? Did I offend you somewhere?"

The old lady looked at her, then back at me, a wavering flash in her eyes.

"Is it possible that it was a mistake? Maybe the maid was just greedy and stole it herself? In this world, how could a mother be so cruel to do this to her child?"

The jade ring: "Hu hu hu, why doesn't master need me anymore?" I calmly said: "Our crime sketch major also studies a few subjects, which are criminal psychology and micro-expression psychology."

"Simply put, micro-expressions are people's first physical reaction when faced with a choice, appearing before language, more honest than excuses. I can judge through the small unconscious expressions of the other person to judge whether they are hiding or not, and can also use the rhythm of the reaction to lock in key truths, so Lying to my face is useless.”

I studied this major to hide the fact that I can hear other people's secrets, to avoid being seen as mentally ill. Everything sounds more reasonable like that. The room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. The old man frowned: "That sounds a bit... science fiction?" The old lady unconsciously objected: "It is truly a thousand and one night story, how is this possible?!" I had prepared in advance: "Are you afraid to try?" Mr. Kim pushed away the butler's blocking hand and stepped forward: "I'll try." He is very confident, having been in business for decades, no one has ever guessed his thoughts.

“So guess your own money?”

The walking stick in the old man's hand shouted: 【Private money? Heh, when he was young, the owner liked to hide his own money in the dog's nest and use tape to tape it up. I don't believe this girl could guess it.]

"Private money is usually hidden in the house, not outside the toilet, TV, ceiling fan, under the bed, dog nest..."

The old man's eyebrows trembled.

“Very good, looks like it's a dog nest. Let me guess how much is hidden.”

The walking stick shouted: 【No no no, she can't know that there are three million yuan in that card!】

“One million? Two million? Three million?”

“I guess it's three million, so it can't be cash, it must be on a card. Which card? Or let me guess the color.”

“Red yellow blue green purple…”

Walking stick: 【The normal cards are all black, my owner's card is a special red color.】

“Oh, red is a special order.”

The corner of Mr. Kim's mouth began to twitch. My voice was steady: “I can still guess where that money came from, where each amount of money was spent, for example—”

“Wait!” The old man quickly stopped him, "Enough is enough, I believe."

This money is the way back that the old man hid when he first started his business. This is only he knows, no second person can know! The old man couldn't believe it: "I haven't said a word, have you already guessed?" Before I could open my mouth, the old lady grabbed the old man's ear.

“Since when did you hide your private money behind my back? You don't want to live anymore?!”

“Pain, pain, pain... spare your life, ma'am! It's all something that happened when I was young, now my old man wouldn't dare anymore."

“Huh, even if I knew you, I wouldn't dare!”

The next second, their eyes fell on their daughter-in-law's face. The space is as quiet as death. Mrs. Kim bit her lower lip tightly, the redness on her face receding inch by inch.

“Lie! She's lying... I have no reason to do that!"

The old man looked at me, coughed slightly: "Can you ask the reason?"

“Dad?!”

I nodded.

“Being able to act against your own child, of course, involves great benefits. Could it be that she is pregnant again? Or did the child hear something he shouldn't have heard? What secret do you want to hide?”

“I guess one by one, lover? Adultery? Transfer assets? Poisoned? Not biological child?…”

She bit her lower lip, not saying a word. The diamond ring excitedly shouted: 【Oh my god, justice is falling from the sky!】 【I remember who that man is. No wonder the more he looked at this greasy bald man, the more familiar he became, it turned out that his lover was him! Don't think that wearing a mask means I won't recognize you! The despicable Ly family name!】

“Who did you have an affair with?”
