"Is this the murderer of this assassination?" The bearded examiner looked at Shi Ya with a calm face and no emotion could be seen in his eyes.

Jian Zhiheng agreed first, "Yes, but he was also ordered. If he could provide some key clues to help us find the real murderer, can we make meritorious service and give the Tiansheng Royal Family an explanation?"

The bearded examiner nodded slightly: "We will consider these things." He raised his eyes and looked at Shi Ya on the opposite side, "Let me tell you first, who instructs you and the process of getting the poison."

Shi Ya opened her mouth and shivered at first, but with the comfort of Jian Zhiheng, Shen Antong and others, he finally calmed down a little and began to talk from the beginning.

Shi Ya's family is poor, and her father works on the construction site and gets up early and goes to bed late every day. Her mother is in poor health and can only be idle at home. She also often drinks various Chinese medicine to regulate her body. The family relies on her father's meager salary to make a living.

When he was at Wuya College, Shi Ya had to receive special hardship subsidies every year, but he was very successful and had always had excellent grades. Every time he had a big exam, he always received scholarships from the college. His parents often said that it would be okay to have a hard life now. When his son has a bright future, he will definitely let the whole family live a good life.

This time, he graduated from Wuya as an outstanding student and received a recommended place for the Tiangong Gate assessment. He will soon go to Tiansheng Academy to conduct pre-examination special training with other graduates from all over the country.

When they received this news, the whole family was very happy. The parents, who had always been frugal, took him to the restaurant for the first time and booked a good banquet. At that time, they all felt that they would be prosperous after entering the Tiangong Gate. Whether those who came out of there would definitely have a bright future, whether they became a powerful man or wanted to rejoin their jobs.

When the neighbors ask questions again in the future, they can proudly say that my son has entered the Tiangong Sect to practice! At that time, he will definitely gain a lot of envious gazes.

With all kinds of longings, Shi Ya came to Tiansheng Academy with her luggage and started the special training.

Although the special training days are very hard and Shi Ya's personality is not very sociable, as long as he knows that his current efforts will bring him rewards in the future, he will have sufficient confidence and motivation.

Until one day.

He had just finished training that day when he suddenly received a message saying that his father accidentally fell off the scaffolding while working on the construction site. When his mother heard the news, she fainted on the spot. Now both of them have been sent to the clinic.

Shi Ya was panicked when he heard this. He was worried about his parents' situation and the high medical expenses in the future. Now this family is almost entirely up to him, but for so many years he has been a student who has no experience in life and stayed in the college from morning to night. He suddenly suffered such a shocking change. He didn't know what to do!

In a hurry, Shi Ya could only turn to his relatives for help. But these elders who usually made him feel kind, when the critical moment, all of them became careless with him. Those who had a better attitude were to blame him, and they had a bad attitude, and even stopped sending a message when they heard it.

These relatives were even less humane than his old classmates. When they heard that he had difficulties, they took the initiative to transfer a lot of money to him without saying a word. But these classmates were not rich themselves. Compared with the huge medical expenses, what they raised was still a drop in the bucket and was useless.

Shi Ya tried to negotiate with the boss on the construction site, but the boss pushed him all, saying that his father fell down by himself. Now no one did his work, so it would be good if he didn't ask them for compensation. Other workers were also hesitant and said they didn't see it.

Shi Ya was timid, and he didn't know how to calculate the compensation liability in this regard. Seeing the boss rolling up his sleeves and trying to hit him, he was so scared that he turned around and ran away.

Someone gave him an idea and suggested that he contact the media to hype the matter and expand the influence to attract the attention of the country. However, because of this matter, it was just an ordinary work-related injury accident, and there was no eye-catching selling point, and not many newspapers were willing to pay attention to it.

In addition, as the palace gate assessment is imminent today, the newspapers are full of related reports. Some candidates from wealthy families have offered high prices early, gaining fame for themselves in advance, and have also launched many related interviews. In such an environment, Shi Ya's affairs cannot make any waves at all.

When he was helpless, Shi Ya could only take the last path, which was to borrow private usury.

However, after listening to the staff's introduction, Shi Ya hesitated again. Although he could get a lot of money in a short period of time to borrow money, the interest rate when repaying the loan was too high. The amount of profits would soon crush him.

If you can't pay back the money within the deadline, not only will your existing assets be emptied, but you may also be threatened by personal safety. I heard that these gangs are often quite crazy when collecting debts and can use any means.

Lending is a temporary relief to the urgent problem, but it may cause greater disasters. But if you don’t borrow, what should you do if the medical expenses are done? If you can’t pay the money, the clinic will never start taking medicine!

Shi Ya was at a loss. He didn't know how many times he looked at the workbench, but he never dared to take this step formally, as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

At this moment, a dry and hoarse voice suddenly sounded behind him.

"You have difficulties."

Shi Ya turned around and saw an old man wrapped in a black hood. He held a crutch in his right hand and his left hand shrank in his wide sleeves. He looked quite old and thin and shriveled, like a piece of dry bark wrapped in a robe.

The first impression of this appearance is really not very good. Shi Ya just glanced at him and turned it over. He already has a lot of messes, and he really doesn't want to be involved with these weird people anymore.

"You need money." Seeing that he didn't answer, the old man did not give up. He grinned with his shriveled lips and spoke again.

People who come to borrow money from usury naturally have difficulties and need money. Therefore, even if the other party is very accurate, Shi Ya doesn't want to pay attention.

But unexpectedly, the old man, leaning on a crutch, moved tremblingly toward the front and spoke for the third time.

"You think the interest rate here is too high, and you're afraid you can't afford it."

After hearing this sentence, Shi Ya suddenly felt aroused his heart and turned his head toward him for the first time: "Then... do you have any solutions?"

The old man smiled and showed the insidiousness of "fish taking the bait".

"Come with me."

His back staggered away was like an old wizard who had experienced vicissitudes. It was mysterious, but also... a dangerous temptation.
