Bab 291: Pressing Closer

The private advisor finished recording the statement and turned to ask Gu Yundong, "What do you say?"

Gu Yundong shrugged and said, "I've never left the house."

"Even if you've never left the house, you can ask someone else to do it." Yu Youwei glared at her angrily.

"Who?"

"The beggars in the city. The waiter of Fulong Inn saw you go out after you returned with his own eyes and look for the beggars outside. He also saw you give them silver. If you didn't order them to set fire, what else could it be?" Yu Youwei snorted.

The assistant took a note and said, "Bring the waiter of Fulong Inn to the hall."

The waiter came over quickly and replied as if he was Yu Youwei, "I was far away at that time and didn't see if she was giving money, but when those beggars passed by me, I saw them happily biting the silver."

Yu Youwei looked at Gu Yundong. "What else do you have to say?"

"Oh, where are the beggars?"
