"What's going on?" Rong Shaohong said angrily.

This glass box is clearly used to store the white jade Maitreya Buddha, but the Buddha statue inside is gone, and only an empty box remains.

Lin Lu also panicked, "No! How could this be? I didn't steal anything! I didn't take the Buddha statue!"

She turned her head to ask for help, but found that everyone was staring at her, and everyone believed that it was her who did it.

Qi Yan leaned against the door, and said in a cold tone, "I got the stolen goods, what else is there to say. Didn't someone say to call the police before? I don't know how many years I will be in prison for stealing 3000 million yuan?"

Lin Lu was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on her head, "I, not me! Sister Mingli, please say something!"

She tugged at Chen Mingli's sleeves, her eyes were red.But Chen Mingli pulled her away, and said to Rong Shaohong: "Master, there is only a box, and there is no Buddha statue, and it can't prove that Lin Lu stole it, let alone the key—"

"Chen Steward!" Qi Yan stood up straight. He was already taller than Chen Mingli, but now he squinted at her, which invisibly brought a heavy sense of oppression.

"In this house, anyone has a chance to steal the key. Lin Lu is now the one who got both dirty and wanted to excuse her... I'm afraid he is also suspected of being an accomplice!"

Chen Mingli's pupils shrank slightly, but she didn't dare to speak again.

Seeing this, Lin Lu burst into tears.She stepped forward to grab Huang Huizhong and Rong Chenglin's hands, but they pushed them away one by one.

"Ma'am, Miss San, Housekeeper Chen, please help me! I, I am innocent!"

"Innocent? Hmph! I found something in your room, how can you argue." Qi Yan turned to Rong Shaohong, "Master Rong, call the police! After all, it's a 3000 million treasure, let her go in and sit there for the rest of her life." Prison is also what it should be.”

"Prison? Don't! I can't go to prison!" Lin Lu's expression was a little out of order. She suddenly knelt in front of Rong Chenglin, and threw herself on her legs, "Miss San, help me! I can't go to prison." !"

"Go away, it's none of my business!" Rong Chenglin wanted to kick her away, but Lin Lu hugged her tightly.

"Woo... San, Miss San, help me!"

Lin Lu was kicked by Rong Chenglin for several times without letting go, but Qi Yan came over, squatted beside her and said, "Crying is useless, now there is no evidence to prove your innocence, you should go to jail .”

He patted her on the shoulder comfortingly, but Lin Lu raised her head like crazy, and suddenly ran to the bed.

She picked up the box and kept touching it, then suddenly cried out:

"Evidence? I have evidence!"

She picked up the empty box and ran to Rong Shaohong, her eyes were full of excitement, "Master, I can prove that I didn't steal it! Box, this box is not for Buddha statues! The box for Buddha statues is even smaller than this one! I It's innocent!"

As soon as she said this, the expressions of several people on the spot changed drastically.

Rong Shaohong's eyes became dark, but Lin Lu was stunned, "What, what's wrong?"

"Heh." Qi Yan crossed her arms and said with a smile: "Master Rong, now that the truth has come out, I have not broken my promise." He was referring to helping Rong Shaohong catch the thief.

Rong Shaohong sighed, "It's hard work for you."

"Wait, wait!" Lin Lu yelled, "I have evidence! I didn't steal it!"

"Evidence?" Rong Shaohong glared at her, "The evidence you mentioned just proves that you are a thief!"

Lin Lu was completely stunned.Seeing that she didn't understand, Qi Yan specially explained: "Don't you still understand? When I went into the study room to change the box for the Buddha statue yesterday, only Master Rong, me, and Rong Xi knew that the original box was too big, so I replaced it with a smaller one. Box No. [-]. After Rong Xi left, the study room was locked, and it wasn't until Master Rong opened the door this morning that he found that the Buddha statue was missing."

"During this period of time, only those who really stole the Buddha statue will know that the box was already small when the Buddha statue was stolen yesterday, not the one on your bed. You said you were innocent, so why would you know this big one? Is there no Buddha image in the box number?"

"I..." Lin Lu trembled her lips, and faltered: "I, I heard about it yesterday... Yes, I heard it from you yesterday!"

Qi Yan shook her head, "Impossible. The small box that Rong Xi brought is exactly the same as this one, not to mention that the small box was kept in a bag before he entered the study, so it is impossible for you to see it. Unless you witness it with your own eyes, They even touched the two boxes with their own hands, otherwise ordinary people would not be able to tell them apart."

He looked at Lin Lu coldly, and directly pronounced her "death sentence".

"Stop struggling. Admit it. If you continue to be stubborn and call the police, then you will really go to jail."

"I..." Lin Lu opened her mouth wide in a daze, and finally knelt down on the ground limply, and cried out with a "wow", "I didn't mean it! The Buddha statue was clearly placed in Qi Yan's room. This will happen!"

She looked at Rong Chenglin with tears in her eyes, "Miss San, I'm really in Qi Yan's room! I..."

"Shut up!" Rong Chenglin went up and gave her a slap, "You bitch, you dare to steal and frame things, right?"

She slapped Lin Lu twice in a row, leaving several bloodstains on his face, but Lin Lu had lost her mind, and she hugged Rong Chenglin desperately.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see what's going on, but no one wants to tell the truth.Qi Yan sneered, turned and left.

He returned to the room, ready to pick up the real Buddha statue and return it to Zhao.But Rong Chengyu was leaning against the door, he hadn't had time to take off his overcoat, and he was quite dusty.

"How did you put the empty box in Lin Lu's room? As I remember, her door was locked."

When he asked this question, it was with curiosity, inquiry and almost inaudible suspicion.
