XunMi wasn't affected in the slightest. Or rather, it should be said that the evil aura seemed to consciously bypass her.
She was just curious. Who would be so impatient to seek death and even give her free experience?
Should she do it or not?
This was a question worth pondering.
The atmosphere in the living room was very serious. Lin Zhi opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but when he met Lou Xiao's dark eyes, he closed his mouth.
It seemed that he could not be kind.
Well, some people did not move and he thought that they had settled down.
Since she did not want to take the road to heaven, he could not do anything about it.
Soon, the ranch agent came in. He was about 35 or 36 years old and his hair was slightly protruding. He had a typical Maitreya face.
When he saw Lou Xiao sitting next to Xunmi, he immediately went up to him. He was neither too flattering nor too rude. His attitude was just right.
"Mr. Lou, what can I do for you? I will arrange it for you right away."
Although this ranch was not Lou Xiao's property, he had shares in it. Naturally, everyone here knew the second largest shareholder, only second to the boss.
Lou Xiao sat with one hand on the armrest and the other around XunMi's waist, displaying an invisible domineering and powerful aura.
"I want the surveillance footage of this building from ten to twelve o 'clock at night." It was already past ten o' clock when he came to find the little thing. The problem should have happened after they left.
Although the agent was confused, he did not ask. He immediately nodded and went to the side to make a call.
"Now, one by one, tell me what you were doing during that time. The cameraman will speak first."
"Of course, there can also be awards, whistle-blowing, prizes, Wiky's endorsement or ten million yuan." He leaned back lazily like a resting lion.
Even the temptation of Wiky's endorsement was not enough to overpower the pressure he gave people.
His expression was too dangerous, as if he was saying that his territory was inviolable and that the person next to him was the only treasure that he recognized and doted on and protected.
But at this moment, his treasure was passive, so his claws were also revealed.
Knowing this, everyone fell silent and hesitated for a moment.
"President Lou, when we were following Miss Tian, we didn't leave at all. When Miss Tian found something and came down to hand it in, there was no one in the living room. At that time, there was a painting on the sofa."
"After that, Miss Tian went to the bathroom. We kept waiting here. When she came out, she took the things that she had left on the sofa, and we left together."
"We split up when we reached the ranch. She entered the crowd, and we stayed behind with the workers."
Tian Liwei's two cameramen happened to be standing at the side, and they were the first to briefly describe the situation.
Following that, Yuriai, Jiao Hao, and the rest of the cameramen also began to recall. They even took out the images they had taken to verify.
"After Miss Xin found the items, we came in together. When we saw that there was no one at the door, we left. It was only when we entered the crowd that we parted ways. But at that time, we did see a picture frame and a white object on the sofa."
Except for Wu Xingyu, who hadn't entered the living room from beginning to end, everyone else said the same thing.
At the moment, only Xin Jiaqi and Tian Liwei's accounts differed slightly from what the cameramen said. Tian Liwei said that when they came, there was only a picture frame on the sofa. She put her things there, went to the bathroom, and took them away when she came out.
However, Xin Jiaqi's cameramen said that they saw two things when they came out, and there was no one in the room.
So, either someone was lying, someone had left and returned, or there were other possibilities that they hadn't guessed.
"Director, President Lou, it's not me. Please believe me, I didn't do this."
Tian Liwei couldn't help it. The experience of being framed in her previous life was too deep in her memory. The slightest touch made her nervous, and …
Her gaze drifted to the painting in Xunmi's hand, and her fingers tightened.
Lou Xiao glanced sideways at Tian Liwei, who was obviously flustered. He didn't say anything, but he had an answer in his heart.
Xin Jiaqi's expression wasn't much better than Tian Liwei's. If it weren't for Tian Liwei's diversion, she probably wouldn't have been able to stand steadily.
Lou Xiao's aura was too strong, and the pressure was too great. Her back was covered in cold sweat.
Even with Tian Liwei blocking in front of her, she felt that time was torturous. Especially when she thought about how someone would send the surveillance video over later, her body went weak.
'Why are there surveillance videos here? Shouldn't they be turned off?'
'If it's decided by the program team, it should be for private use. Party A has no right to monitor Party B.'
'If I didn't know this, I wouldn't have … Damn it.'
"Both of you don't look good. Could it be that the two of you worked together to do this?"
Wu Xingyu touched his chin, his eyes probing, and his words were not polite.
No matter how he looked at it, the two of them looked like they had something to hide.
Xin Jiaqi bit her lip, and her rationality kept pulling her. Should she take the initiative to stand up and admit it?
At this moment, the arrow was on the bow, and she had to shoot, but she didn't know how to do it.
"I think there's no need to look for it. It must be you." Yuriai crossed her arms and looked at Xin Jiaqi.
She knew that this person had shown displeasure towards the little cutie, so it was reasonable for her to want to mess with her now.
Tian Liwei's eyelashes trembled, and a thought appeared in her mind. Her voice was a little dry as she spoke.
"Actually, I also changed the painting. According to the time, when Jiaqi and the others came in, it should be when I went to the bathroom, and the two guys were standing on the wall at the door.
"So they saw two things on the sofa, and the two guys were resting against the wall. Plus, the light was dim, so it's normal that they didn't notice.
"Later, when I came in with an upset stomach, I realized …" At this point, she bit her lip as if she was in a difficult position. She thought she was carefully looking at Xin Jiaqi who was not far away.
When she saw Xin Jiaqi looking at her, she quickly looked away. She seemed to be struggling, but in the end, 'conscience' won out over friendship.
"I realized that Jiaqi was changing the painting. I wanted to say something, but I felt that it would attract attention, and it wouldn't be good for Jiaqi.
"So I waited for Jiaqi to leave before I quietly went upstairs and prepared to change the painting back."
"Maybe I was too nervous and accidentally took the wrong painting. In the end, it was still the wrong one. I'm sorry."
Her fingers moved uneasily, as if she was sad that she was forced to expose her best friend's bad deeds.
Xin Jiaqi wanted to refute, but she couldn't open her mouth. Her face was pale because she had indeed changed the painting.
The result seemed obvious, but the person in question held her chin, blinked her big eyes, and asked in confusion.
"Aren't you two best friends who grew up together? Since you helped her, why did you step on her?
"I'm curious. Can you explain it to me? Is this what the books call a courageous act for a just cause?"
"…" Is this how a courageous act for a just cause is used? Everyone present fell silent.
