Rebirth and Reversal of Fortune

Chapter 62 Setting a Trap, Gu Yu Falls into the Trap

Sure enough, Gu Yu soon received the news. "This is an excellent opportunity. If we can acquire this property, we can deal a heavy blow to the Marquis's mansion," he thought to himself.

Gu Yu began raising funds, preparing to seize the opportunity to buy the property. Meanwhile, Su Jinxiu had already arranged everything. She had laid numerous traps at the transaction location, waiting for Gu Yu to take the bait.

On the day of the transaction, Gu Yu arrived at the agreed location with a group of his men, full of excitement.

"Su Jinxiu, you can't escape this time," Gu Yu said smugly.

Su Jinxiu remained calm: "Gu Yu, do you really think you can succeed?"

Gu Yu ignored her and impatiently ordered someone to bring out the contract for him to sign. Just as he was about to put pen to paper, a large number of soldiers suddenly surged out from all around.

"Gu Yu, you are under arrest for suspected fraud," the officer in charge said.

Gu Yu then realized he had fallen into a trap and tried to escape, but was surrounded by soldiers.

"Su Jinxiu, you actually plotted against me!" Gu Yu shouted angrily.

Su Jinxiu sneered: "This is your own fault."

Gu Yu was imprisoned, but Su Jinxiu remained vigilant. She knew that there might be other forces behind Gu Yu.

Even in prison, Gu Yu remained unwilling to give up and tried to contact the outside world. However, Su Jinxiu had anticipated this and had people closely monitor his every move.

"Miss, Gu Yu tried to send a message out, but we intercepted it," the subordinate reported to Su Jinxiu.

Su Jinxiu opened the note, which contained some vague coded messages.

"It seems he has accomplices." Su Jinxiu fell into deep thought.

In order to lure out Gu Yu's accomplices, Su Jinxiu decided to use this note to set another trap.

She deliberately spread the word that she had deciphered the coded message on the note and obtained important clues about the forces behind Gu Yu.

The news quickly reached the ears of Gu Yu's accomplices, who began to panic.

One night, several shadowy figures sneaked into the Marquis's residence, intending to find so-called clues and destroy evidence.

However, as soon as they entered the Marquis's residence, they were captured by soldiers who had been lying in ambush.

"You've finally arrived." Su Jinxiu appeared before them.

After interrogation, these people revealed the entire force behind Gu Yu.

Su Jinxiu and Xiao Ling followed the clues and wiped out this force in one fell swoop.

The crisis at the Marquis's mansion was finally resolved, and Su Jinxiu and Xiao Ling became famous as a result.

However, they did not become arrogant or complacent because of this, but instead managed the Marquis's mansion even more cautiously.

However, just when they thought everything was over, a mysterious letter appeared on Su Jinxiu's desk...

The moment Gu Yu was surrounded by soldiers, his face turned pale, and his eyes were filled with terror and despair.

"This is impossible! Su Jinxiu, how could you..." His voice trembled, his words filled with disbelief.

Su Jinxiu stepped forward and looked at him coldly: "Gu Yu, your greed and stupidity have led you into this trap."

Gu Yu was escorted back to the government office. In the interrogation room, he initially tried to argue and refused to admit his crimes.

"My lord, this is a misunderstanding! I have been wronged!" Gu Yu shouted.

However, faced with irrefutable evidence and Su Jinxiu's accusations, his lies appeared weak and ineffective.

The official in charge of the interrogation said sternly, "Gu Yu, the evidence is conclusive, how dare you deny it!"

Under immense pressure, Gu Yu finally broke down and began to confess his crimes. He not only admitted to the plot to seize the Marquis's property, but also revealed the identities of other people who colluded with him and a series of conspiracies behind them.

Su Jinxiu and Xiao Ling listened from the side, their anger growing stronger.

"He's so vicious, trying to destroy the Marquis's mansion." Xiao Ling clenched his fists.

As Gu Yu confessed, more conspiracies hidden in the shadows were revealed. It turned out that their plan was not only aimed at the Marquis's property, but also at damaging the Marquis's reputation and even attempting to endanger the lives of everyone in the Marquis's household.

Su Jinxiu decided to use these confessions to bring Gu Yu's accomplices to justice.

She and Xiao Ling began a secret investigation into those who colluded with Gu Yu. In the process, they encountered numerous difficulties and obstacles.

Some of his accomplices sensed the danger and attempted to flee.

"We can't let them get away; we must bring them to justice!" Su Jinxiu said firmly.

Thanks to the efforts of Su Jinxiu and Xiao Ling, one accomplice after another was captured.

But one of his key accomplices, named Li San, was exceptionally cunning. He used his extensive connections in the capital to evade capture on multiple occasions.

"We must find his hiding place." Xiao Ling dispatched a large number of people to search for him.

Finally, one day, they received a reliable lead. Li San was hiding in an abandoned manor on the outskirts of the capital.

Su Jinxiu and Xiao Ling led their men and quickly headed there.

As they surrounded the manor, Li San was still making a last-ditch effort.

"Don't come any closer, or I'll take you all down with me!" Li San shouted, brandishing his weapon.

Su Jinxiu calmly said, "Li San, you have nowhere to run now, just surrender obediently."

After a period of stalemate, Li San's psychological defenses finally collapsed, and he laid down his weapon.

With Li San's capture, Gu Yu's conspiracy group completely collapsed.

The Marquis's mansion returned to its former peace and prosperity.

However, Su Jinxiu and Xiao Ling did not let their guard down. They knew that in this complex world, new crises could arise at any time.

Just then, a mysterious visitor arrived at the Marquis's residence...
