Chapter 118: Control! The function of Wangshu Mirror!
After she came to Dasheng, she rarely used hypnosis or anything like that.

Because she doesn't trust the people around her, she is afraid that if she rashly uses special methods, it will arouse suspicion.

But the situation is very complicated now, and all the people in the Lin family are in the same boat with her, so they will not target her for the time being.

She was more careful and used this method to verify her guess so that she could better decide what to do next.

Besides, at present, only Lin Yangyang and Lin Shian know about this matter. These two are devoted to the Lin family and will not cause any big waves for the time being.

That's why she wanted to give it a try tonight.

Let’s see if Lin Jiusi understands psychology.

Because she suspected that Aunt Chun's death was most likely the result of someone guiding, controlling and manipulating her behind the scenes.

And at the moment, this person is most likely Lin Jiusi.

Thinking of this, she took a deep breath and pushed the door open.

Lin Jiusi just looked up and immediately lowered his head, as if he didn't want to talk to Lin Zhiqing.

Lin Zhiqing didn't care. He squatted down in front of him, took out a piece of cake and put it on the plate.

"Eat something first, you might not be able to eat it later." She said this calmly.

Her tone was very gentle, but Lin Jiusi could hear a hint of threat in it.

He glanced at the pastry and chose not to take it.

Lin Zhiqing sighed slightly. If he didn't listen to good advice, he would suffer the consequences.

She turned the Wangshu Mirror in her hand and shook it left and right like a rattle.

Lin Jiusi's attention was not on Lin Zhiqing, but she didn't say anything and just squatted in front of him, which really gave him a weird feeling.

He turned his head and his eyes immediately stopped on the three bowls of water.

Seeing this scene, Lin Zhiqing's mouth curled up slightly.

When people are in any scene, their eyes will always subconsciously stay on objects with bright colors or the same elements.

The most conspicuous thing in front of Lin Jiusi was the three bowls of water.

Lin Zhiqing was not idle and wanted to invite him to have some pastries, but was using this method to lower his vigilance.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Lin Zhiqing stopped moving his hands and the Wangshu Mirror stopped turning.

At the same time, Lin Jiusi's eyes gradually lost focus. He stared straight ahead like a piece of wood, his eyes empty.

"You can stand up now." Lin Zhiqing shook the bronze mirror.

The next moment, Lin Jiusi stood up obediently like a puppet, his eyes still fixed on the bronze mirror.

Seeing this, Lin Zhiqing was delighted.

She succeeded!

She successfully hypnotized Lin Jiusi!
It’s worth all the fuss today… Lin Zhiqing looked at the three bowls of water.

The three bowls of clear water and the bronze mirror in her hand had one thing in common, which was that reflections could be seen in them.

Lin Zhiqing used the three bowls of water to give Lin Jiusi a strong psychological hint, suggesting that such objects would not harm him.

Lin Jiusi had been watching water all day and had long been immune to such items, so when the bronze mirror appeared in his sight, his brain would actively give him feedback -

The bronze mirror, like clear water, poses no threat.

Therefore, when the bronze mirror moved, Lin Jiusi's brain would continue to reinforce this information to him.

At this point, Lin Zhiqing's hypnosis was half successful.

In addition, he suddenly stopped turning the Wangshu Mirror, causing a gap in information capture in his brain. Lin Jiusi entered a state of high mental concentration, but was unable to perceive the surrounding environment.

In this state, he was quite sensitive to orders or verbal hints from others. Lin Zhiqing thought for a moment and said the first sentence: "Eat the lotus cake on the plate in front of you."

Under Lin Zhiqing's gaze, Lin Jiusi squatted down, mechanically raised his arm to pick up the piece of cake, and put it into his mouth without hesitation.

Lin Zhiqing narrowed his eyes and took two steps back.

Seeing that Lin Jiusi quickly finished the cakes, he gave another order: "Drink a sip of the water in the bowl on the left."

Lin Jiusi didn't hesitate at all. He knelt on the ground and lowered his head, about to start licking the water in the bowl.

"Stop!" Lin Zhiqing stopped him.

He knelt on the ground and paused with his lips pouting.

The reason why he behaved in such an abnormal way was because Lin Zhiqing’s slogan just now was not effective.

If she had said something like "lift up the bowl of water and drink it", Lin Jiusi's actions would have changed.

After trying this, Lin Zhiqing could confirm that Lin Jiusi did not know hypnosis and did not realize that he was being hypnotized.

Lin Zhiqing didn't put much thought into it and hypnotized him with just a slight move, which shows that his core is very unstable and he doesn't think much.

In general, Lin Jiusi is stupid and has no sensible mind.

Such people's emotions are exposed and difficult to hide.

In other words, there is a 99% chance that Lin Jiusi does not understand psychology.

Such a person has no way of controlling the life and death of another person.

Then, there must be another hidden story behind Aunt Chun’s death!
Lin Zhiqing pinched her chin and began to think. If it weren't for this incident, she would probably think that the culprit was Lin Jiusi.

After all, even Lin Jiusi himself thought so.

But if he is the murderer, the question that Lin Zhiqing should be struggling with is whether to reveal the truth.

Even if the truth was reported, the Lin family still couldn't escape disaster.

This is actually equivalent to her finding a dead end, and the Lin family will be the ones who are unlucky.

She recalled every step of her deduction and always felt that something went wrong.

It went so smoothly, it was really too smooth!

Why does all the evidence point to Lin Jiusi? Is there a second possibility?
If Lin Jiusi doesn't know psychology, is there anyone who does?

A series of questions appeared in Lin Zhiqing's mind, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.

The most convincing evidence that Lin Jiusi is the murderer is actually his affair with Concubine Chun and his proactive apology to those involved.

In other words, Lin Jiusi himself also thought that he was the murderer.

However, the direction of some things in this incident is inconsistent with Lin Jiusi's approach, and there are many doubts.

The most intuitive point is why Aunt Chun's fake death turned into real death.

She paced around the room with her chin pinched, going over all the clues in her mind.

From the Peach Blossom Spring token in Lin Jiusi's hand to the earring left in Qianjin Pavilion, and to the Ministry of Justice's fuss about investigating the Hot Spring Villa.

Then, it was the beginning of everything - the peach blossoms and mud on the soles of Aunt Chun's shoes.

All the clues put together directly or indirectly point to Lin Jiusi!
It's like a Möbius strip. No matter which item you start with, you will end up back at the starting point.

It was as if her actions determined the outcome from the very beginning.

When Lin Zhiqing thought of this, his eyes were shocked.

What if she was wrong from the beginning?
