Conviction requires evidence.
Shen Yue has always had thorough inferences, stemming from his attention to the smallest pieces of evidence.
When he asserted that Huyan Tong was a murderer, he was quite certain.
However, everyone else was puzzled.
Nie Shan frowned slightly, Liang Hongyu was surprised, but Lady Huyan fell to her knees, pleading hoarsely, "Lord Shen, my husband is not that kind of person, I beg you to investigate thoroughly."
Shen Yue shook his head and said, "I have witnessed Lord Nie's investigative abilities and trust in his fairness and impartiality."
Nie Shan's expression was complex.
Wang Zongchuan stood outside the cell, listening to this, and thought inwardly—Is it possible the information was wrong? Could it be that Shen Yue didn't trust Huyan Tong at all? Previously, Shen Yue appeared to trust Huyan Tong, perhaps as a way to win people's favor, but now that Huyan Tong has done something so heinous, Shen Yue may want to rid himself of this burden?
