Chapter 1098 There Are Two Reasons
There are two reasons why Shi Lei guessed that the real mastermind behind the assassin was Mo Bingzhong, not Mo Bingwen.
Shi Lei only told Mo Bingzhong the first point, and this only made Shi Lei slightly suspicious.
The time of Mo Bingzhong's call was too coincidental, just when the assassin was about to break the door.
It was hard to believe that Mo Bingzhong had just received the news. Shi Lei suspected that Mo Bingzhong knew the whereabouts of the assassin and knew that the assassin had arrived at the door. He calculated the time when the assassin cracked the electronic lock and called him.
From this point of view, Mo Bingzhong did not want Shi Lei to die, but he had to let the assassin give Shi Lei enough threats.
In Mo Bingzhong's view, with Shi Lei's skills, as long as he knew that someone wanted to kill him, he would be able to deal with the other party. But if he told Shi Lei too early, Shi Lei might leave the hotel, or let the police wait there. Even if he didn't call the police, it was not impossible for Shi Lei to find a few people to ambush in the hotel with his power.
In this case, Shi Lei did not feel the threat to his life, and it was just one of the several times that Mo Bingwen wanted to kill Shi Lei, and it would be difficult to arouse Shi Lei's real anger.
Therefore, Mo Bingzhong deliberately designed to reveal the news to Shi Lei at the last moment. He even hoped that Shi Lei would be injured because of this. In a rage, Mo Bingwen, who was controlled by Shi Lei and could not leave Wu Dong, would naturally not escape.
Mo Bingzhong designed this just to make Mo Bingwen die.
The actual situation was exactly as Shi Lei expected. Mo Bingzhong had basically controlled the Mo family, but if Mo Bingwen did not die, his throne would not be secure.
As for what he said, Mo Bingwen was his eldest brother after all, and he could not do it, this was simply nonsense. He just couldn't let anyone in the family see that Mo Bingwen died in his hands.
And Mo Bingwen's son had been controlled by him two days ago. When he learned that Shi Lei came to Chuncheng today, he immediately had a vicious plan.
He took the initiative to call Mo Bingwen and told him that Shi Lei had come to Chuncheng, and that Shi Lei had gone to look for his son. Now four or five hours had passed, and Shi Lei had returned to the hotel, but Mo Bingwen's son was nowhere to be found.
Mo Bingwen was furious.
Mo Bingzhong knew very well that Mo Bingwen had two assassins under his command. Mo Bingwen spent millions of dollars every year to support these two assassins, just in case, they would be needed one day.
Under the premise that Mo Bingwen's son was "missing", Mo Bingwen would definitely activate these two chess pieces.
The development of the situation was exactly as Mo Bingzhong expected. Mo Bingwen was furious, and his first reaction was to find the two assassins. Moreover, he told Mo Bingzhong the contact information of one of the assassins and asked Mo Bingzhong to direct his actions.
Then, the killer arrived at the hotel, stood at the door of Shi Lei, and sent a message to Mo Bingzhong, saying that Shi Lei would be dead in two minutes at most.
Mo Bingzhong waited for another minute before calling Shi Lei.
In this regard, Mo Bingzhong is much smarter than Mo Bingwen. Shi Lei was able to escape the pursuit and interception of Gonda's men in Myanmar, and he was able to kill so many of Mo Bingwen's men in black, which means that Shi Lei's martial arts value is already unimaginable. In addition, Mo Bingzhong still remembers what happened in Yulong not long ago. He even thought that unless a killer went there with a weapon like a submachine gun and killed Shi Lei unreasonably, it would be extremely unlikely for him to kill Shi Lei quietly and get away with it.
Especially after Mo Bingzhong warned Shi Lei, the fate of the killer can be imagined.
And Mo Bingzhong knew very well that after A Long failed, he would never betray Mo Bingwen. The police would never be able to pry open his mouth, and Shi Lei certainly couldn't either.
Therefore, Shi Lei would definitely vent his anger on Mo Bingwen, and then Mo Bingwen would basically be dead.
But Mo Bingzhong never expected that Shi Lei could see through all this.
The reason given by Shi Lei is indeed a doubtful point, but Shi Lei certainly cannot be sure of anything based on this alone.
The reason why Shi Lei is basically sure that Mo Bingzhong is the initiator is because he figured out a truth on the way here.
Reputation value!
Gu Teyi contributed 800 reputation points, which is something Shi Lei has never figured out.
And Qi Kaiqun also contributed 800 reputation points, which is also a question that Shi Lei can't figure out.
Shi Lei still hasn't found the answer to Mo Bingwen's reputation points of 300 points before and 1200 points after.
Later, Shi Lei discovered that the reputation points contributed by Mo Bingzhong actually reached 700 points.
There is no doubt that this is extremely abnormal.
So, Shi Lei has been looking for the common points of these four people.
These four people are obviously very different. Their behavior and their status are incomparable.
But after Shi Lei eliminated them one by one, he found that except for Mo Bingzhong, the other three people really have one thing in common.
Gutiyi was originally just a tricycle driver, but after he found out that Shi Lei was rich, he had evil intentions and hired someone to rob Shi Lei.
After being subdued by Shi Lei, the next day at the dock, he even tried to let those men in black kill Shi Lei.
Both of these actions were deceptions of Shi Lei.
Qi Kaiqun didn't hide anything at first, but when he found the 36 manuscripts of the 12 masters, he tried to deceive Shi Lei and tried to cover up the truth by wrapping the manuscripts in tea and mailing them to Lingxi.
There is no doubt that this was also a deception of Shi Lei.
Mo Bingwen, needless to say, this old man deceived Shi Lei with his fake mask in Myanmar, making it seem as if he had no intention of doing anything to Shi Lei, but in fact, it was Mo Bingwen who finally attacked Shi Lei.
After returning to China, he still tried to deceive Shi Lei and brought out boiled water, but was still solved by Shi Lei calmly.
These are all deceptions.
Apart from this, there is nothing in common between the actions of these three people towards Shi Lei.
And the common point of deception is obviously one of the emotions of human beings.
Shi Lei has reason to believe that deception is one of the emotions that will lead to a sharp increase in reputation value.
Think about the ferryman again. Although the ferryman wanted to kill Shi Lei immediately, there was almost no deception of Shi Lei in his behavior. Everything he did could even be said to be an open conspiracy.
If we talk about hatred, the hatred of Gu Teyi, Qi Kaiqun and Mo Bingwen together may not be deeper than that of the ferryman.
But the reputation value contributed by the ferryman was not as much as the lowest of the three people at any time.
The reason why Mo Bingwen's reputation contribution was not too much last time was that Mo Bingwen's deception had not ended and was still ongoing, so the reputation system did not settle it. Now, Mo Bingwen's fate has been determined, and this deception has developed to the point where the truth is revealed, and the reputation value is naturally reflected.
However, Mo Bingzhong did not deceive Shi Lei, but he still contributed such a high reputation value, which seems to indicate that Mo Bingzhong also deceived Shi Lei, but Shi Lei still doesn't know how he deceived himself.
After Shi Lei's careful analysis, he found that before this, during his contact with Mo Bingzhong, Mo Bingzhong had no possibility of deceiving him.
So, if Mo Bingzhong did deceive Shi Lei, it could only be today.
It was over, and it happened today. It was not difficult for Shi Lei to think that Mo Bingzhong's deception to him could only come from that killer.
