Marco, the statement starts with what we call a premise, which is a fact or piece of information given to you: Most people would agree that it is immoral to lie. Then it follows the premise with a hypothetical situation that contradicts the premise, and asks you an argumentative question. It does not answer the question directly; instead it asks you to use the implied answer as the conclusion of the argument. The conclusion is the answer to the question, which is that it is not always immoral to lie, for example in order to help others.

But can we have our suggestions. This is not from the statement only and we are supposed to find the conclusion from the statement itself
