Chapter 216: She's Not a Murderer
Mama Zhang's eyes flashed slightly when she saw Ye Ziqi, but she didn't expect her to leave yet.
Ye Ziqi walked up and said with a smile: "Mama, I don't think she should be the real thief." ”
Mama Zhang frowned, she didn't speak yet, but the palace maid on the side scolded coldly: "What are you, what qualifications do you have to speak here." ”
Ye Ziqi was not angry, and said calmly: "Sister Zhi'er, what you reprimand." I'm not from the West Fourth Institute, so I shouldn't have intervened, but this matter is weird. I don't want to let go of the real thief. ”
Mama Zhang looked at her with scrutinizing eyes, "Why do you say that she is not the one who stole it?" ”
When she asked so, Ye Ziqi knew that she was willing to give herself a chance. Although this Mama Zhang has been with her for a short time, it can be seen that she is cold and warm-hearted.
If she hadn't been here, Ye Ziqi really wouldn't have intervened.
"The reason is simple. If she was a real thief, how could she hide the birthday egg in her bed. Wouldn't it be easy for people to find out. ”
As soon as Ye Ziqi finished speaking, the palace maid named Zhi'er immediately retorted, "What's so strange about this." She can do such a thing, it can be seen how stupid she is, she thought that we would not find out, so she dared to be so blatant. ”
"Sister Zhi'er, you said Yao Xi was stupid. So how can such a stupid person avoid the inspection of your sisters and steal the birthday eggs from the treasury without you from discovering them? Ye Ziqi asked rhetorically.
"That, that's because ......" Zhi'er couldn't reply for a long time.
Mama Zhang listened very carefully, and looked at Ye Ziqi with a hint of appreciation, "You continue." ”
"That's one of the doubts. The second point is that it makes me more and more sure that she is not a thief. Ye Ziqi said confidently.
As she said this, the corner of her eye kept an eye on the men.
"What is it?" Zhi'er asked.
"Anyone who has eaten Shou Egg will have a special smell in their mouth, with a fishy smell and egg fragrance. When Miss Yao Xi was talking just now, I didn't smell it. ”
Zhi'er seemed to have caught her loophole and immediately retorted: "Just now you are standing behind us, how can you smell it from such a distance?" ”
As soon as Zhi'er said this, everyone realized that what she said was wrong.
Facing the suspicious eyes cast by everyone, Ye Ziqi said unhurriedly: "Because I am very sensitive to the smell of Shou Dan, even if it is from such a distance, I can still smell it." ”
Zhi'er wanted to refute again, but was stopped by Mama Zhang.
"Mama Zhang, you might as well smell it carefully, and you can see if what I said is true or false."
Mama Zhang stepped forward and ordered Yao Xi to open her mouth, and after sniffing it carefully, she took two steps back to make sure that she had not eaten the birthday egg.
Zhi'er said, "Maybe she didn't eat it." ”
Ye Ziqi said with a smile: "I remember that Sister Fang Cai Zhi'er said that what was lost was three birthday eggs. Now that only one birthday egg has been found, the other two are naturally eaten, and the person who eats them must be the real thief. Mama, we just need to smell everyone, and it should soon come to light. ”
Ye Ziqi's gaze swept over a palace maid, and the palace maid seemed to notice her gaze, and looked at each other, and the other party quickly looked away.
Mama Zhang said: "Since you proposed it, then this matter will be investigated by you." If you don't find it, you will be punished in the same way. Do you still dare to be sure of your own thoughts? ”
