Chapter 022: Mitigating Suspicion
Hearing He Ge say this, Liu Xuanmiao said a little helplessly, "Okay, I will do what you say." ”
I have to say that Liu Xuanmiao's "journey" of throwing clay sculpture fragments was a little unsmooth, and when she came out of the room, she met Sun Zhe and Li Tong, who were also going out.
Although it was said that they met, because both sides were not familiar with each other, Sun Zhe and Li Tong only glanced at Liu Xuanmiao and walked towards the other side of the corridor.
Seeing this, Liu Xuanmiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time praised her wit just now, after all, if she hadn't kicked the fragments of the clay sculpture into her pocket just now before going out, it is estimated that she would have attracted the attention of those two people at this time.
Liu Xuanmiao waited until Sun Zhe and Li Tong completely disappeared from her sight, and then began to walk towards the other side of the corridor unhurriedly.
It's just that she walked for a while, and met Zhao Yinyin, Qian Cheng and Kang Xueyi at the top of the stairs.
This time, someone's attitude was not as "friendly" as the two people he had just met, that Zhao Yinyin's eyes were not eyes, and his nose was not nose throughout the whole process, and finally he followed the other two people after glaring at Liu Xuanmiao.
To be honest, Liu Xuanmiao felt a little inexplicable, after all, she didn't have anything to do with this Zhao Yinyin to be exact, but this guy seemed to have been looking at her unpleasantly.
After making sure that the three people had gone away, Liu Xuanmiao went up to the second floor in a hurry.
There was no one on the second floor at this time, but Liu Xuanmiao did not take it lightly.
After making sure that there was really no one around, he threw the clay sculpture fragments in his pocket into the trash can as quickly as he passed by the trash can, and then left as if nothing happened.
After doing what He Ge let herself do, Liu Xuanmiao called back to ask He Ge to ask for credit, but as soon as she was about to go downstairs, she met Andre, the housekeeper of this castle.
It's just that unlike his previous calm and leisurely, Andre's face at this time was full of anxiety.
Seeing this, Liu Xuanmiao hesitated for a moment before stepping forward and asking, "Is something wrong?" ”
Hearing Liu Xuanmiao's question, Andre nodded, "The Duke Lord's favorite tiger clay sculpture is gone." ”
Andre's words made Liu Xuanmiao's heart pause, others didn't understand how the clay sculpture was missing, but Liu Xuanmiao, the party, was clear.
"How could it be that it disappeared for no reason, is it possible that the Duke put it somewhere else and forgot about it?"
Hearing Liu Xuanmiao say this, Andre said, "It is definitely impossible for the Duke to put it elsewhere, because before we went out, the Duke also saw the clay sculpture on the dresser. ”
Seeing Andre say this, Liu Xuanmiao thought for a while before he spoke, "Is that tiger clay sculpture priceless?" ”
Hearing Liu Xuanmiao say this, Andre said, "That tiger clay sculpture is not very expensive to be honest. ”
Andre's words made Liu Xuanmiao a little puzzled, "Since it's not very expensive, if the Duke really likes it, wouldn't it be better to buy her another one?" ”
Liu Xuanmiao's words made Andre sigh, "If I can buy another one to solve the problem, I won't be in such a hurry now, just now the Duke spoke, saying that the tiger clay sculpture must be found, even if it is three feet into the ground, okay, guest, I won't talk to you, I have to hurry up and order, otherwise the Duke will be blamed for a while." ”
Hearing Andre say this, Liu Xuanmiao hurriedly smiled and said, "Okay, you go and get busy!" Leave me alone. ”
After seeing Andre leave, Liu Xuanmiao also hurried back to the room.
When Liu Xuanmiao went back, He Ge was not there, seeing this, Liu Xuanmiao was a little surprised, after all, when she left, He Ge was in the room, but after a while, where would this guy go.
Just as Liu Xuanmiao was sitting on the bed and pondering where He Ge might go, she saw that the door of the room was opened.
It was none other than Hego who came in.
"Hego, what are you doing?"
Hearing Liu Xuanmiao's question, He Ge said with an indifferent expression, "Go out and take a turn." ”
Seeing He Ge say this, Liu Xuanmiao said with a smile, "It's definitely not as simple as you going out, did you find something?" ”
Hearing Liu Xuanmiao's question, He Ge glanced at her before saying, "Did you just do what I said?" ”
Seeing that He Ge didn't answer the question she just asked, Liu Xuanmiao didn't ask anymore, after all, if He Ge wanted to say it, he would naturally say it, if he didn't want to say it, even if she asked for it, people wouldn't answer, and if she didn't do it, she would be annoyed in the end.
Thinking of this, Liu Xuanmiao said, "It's done, by the way, I just met the housekeeper Andre on the way back." ”
Seeing that after she finished speaking, He Ge did not come to ask what happened as she expected, seeing this, Liu Xuanmiao said with some disappointment, "You are not curious about what happened to me and Andre?" ”
Hearing Liu Xuanmiao ask, He Ge glanced at her before he spoke, "Why be curious, if you want to say it, you will naturally say it, if you don't want to say it, I will force you, and I guess you won't say it." ”
Seeing He Ge say this, Liu Xuanmiao then spoke, "You have a point, okay, I won't sell it anymore, according to Andre's butler, as soon as the Duke returned to the room, he found that the tiger clay sculpture on her dresser was missing, and then he was furious, and ordered Andre to find out the tiger clay sculpture even if he was digging three feet into the ground." ”
Seeing that after he finished speaking, He Ge didn't even show the slightest expression of surprise on his face, Liu Xuanmiao asked with some doubts, "Aren't you surprised?" Or did you expect this to happen? ”
Hearing Liu Xuanmiao's question, He Ge said calmly, "Won't you look for something if you lose it?" ”
Seeing He Ge say this, Liu Xuanmiao thought for a while and then said, "I will look for it, but the thing I lost is just a clay sculpture, so why is the Duke so angry?" ”
Hearing Liu Xuanmiao's question, He Ge said, "Because she needs a fair excuse to kill the player, if she doesn't have a serious excuse, even if she is the game boss, she can't just attack the player." ”
Seeing that this was the case, Liu Xuanmiao also suddenly realized, "In other words, even if she loses a comb on the dresser today, the Duke will make such a come, right?" ”
Hearing Liu Xuanmiao's question, He Ge nodded, "Yes." ”
"Then you asked me to throw all the fragments of the clay sculpture in the trash can on the second floor, is it also to reduce our suspicion?"
