"It's normal to spend money to avoid disasters. We all know that."

Mr. Jiang quickly took out the red envelope he had prepared in advance and stuffed it into Master Cao's hand.

Master Cao pinched it casually and found it to be very thick, so he put it into the sleeve of his Taoist robe.

Sure enough, ginger is still spicy.

He has a very good grasp of the ways of the world.

Master Cao smiled and nodded, his eyes full of satisfaction, "Okay, since Elder Jiang is so kind, I can't refuse."

As he spoke, he took out a white ball from his other sleeve.

It's the size of an apple and can be held in the hand.

"It's called the lie detector Moon White Stone."

Master Cao held the Moonstone in one hand and stroked his beard with the other, pretending to be mysterious and introducing it: "This stone, 'absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and collects the essence of the sun and the moon', is already a thing that transcends the five elements. I also got this spiritual treasure by chance. Today, in order to find the thief, showing its magic power can also be regarded as a merit."

"Oh my god! Such a powerful treasure, please cast a spell quickly, Master, so that we can open our eyes."

Jiang Mengyao's eyes were shining, and she looked like Master Cao's little fangirl.

Master Cao shook his head and slowly touched the Moonstone. "Don't worry, Miss Jiang. Let me bless it with spiritual power and awaken its spiritual veins. Then we can concentrate on catching the real thief."

Ginger Fish watched their performance quietly.

[Damn, these fake Taoist priests are full of lies. He is so powerful that he might even have to take the throne of the Jade Emperor!]

Mr. Jiang instructed the housekeeper, Aunt Wu, to call all the servants in the villa to the living room.

A dozen servants looked at each other and whispered to each other.

"What is this for?"

"It seems that the young lady's necklace is missing. It is said that it was stolen by someone with dirty hands."

"We servants don't have much money, but we're not so dishonest as to do anything. Miss Jiang is really going too far."

"In their eyes, we are inferior people. When something is lost, they will naturally suspect us first."

"I think the young lady looks nothing like the lady."

"Have you noticed that the goddaughter that Madam adopted looks more like her. When they stand together, they look more like mother and daughter."

"I think so too, especially with her otherworldly temperament. In comparison, the Madam's goddaughter is actually more like a rich lady."

……

[It seems that the Jiang family servants don’t think very highly of Jiang Mengyao. ]

Since his spiritual power increased, Jiang Yu could hear the servants' whispers clearly.

However, she doesn't care about what others think of Jiang Mengyao.

What she has to do now is to take back what Jiang Mengyao has snatched away step by step.

"Okay, all the servants line up and touch this Moonstone one by one."

Master Cao dragged Yue Baishi with one hand and ordered the servants to stand quickly.

The first servant placed his hand on the moonstone with a slightly nervous look.

The stone didn't react at all.

"Okay, next." Master Cao waved his hand, signaling him to go away and let the people behind him follow.

The second servant touched the stone curiously, but still there was no reaction.

Then, the third, the fourth, the fifth...

Until the last servant passed the test.

Yuebaishi, there is nothing unusual.

The servants began to wonder: Could it be a fake?

"Master Cao, why is this lie-detecting Moonstone not reacting at all?"

Jiang Mengyao frowned and poked the moonstone with her finger in confusion.

"Yaoyao, don't mess with the master's treasure!"

Old Master Jiang held her hand, and then looked at Master Cao with a look of regret, "There is nothing wrong with our servants. It could only be the thieves outside."

Just as he sighed, Jiang Mengyao suddenly turned around and stared at Jiang Yu, "Sister, you seem to have been to my room. Why don't you also come and touch this Yuebai Stone?"

[Shit! This stupid thing is actually waiting for you here.]

The system couldn't help but swear.

Jiang Yu's eyes were cold, but his face remained calm.

"Yaoyao, what are you talking about?"

Old Master Jiang frowned tightly. Regardless of whether Yue Baishi reacted or not, Jiang Yu's touching it proved that she was suspicious.

With a room full of servants present, asking Jiang Yu to prove his innocence was already a very embarrassing thing.

Old Master Jiang has been in the martial arts world for so many years, how could he not know what Jiang Mengyao is thinking?

However, this kind of thing that damages the Jiang family's reputation is too much!

Seeing that Old Man Jiang was staring at her, Jiang Mengyao still insisted, with no intention of "taking a step back to see the bigger picture".

What she wants is to kill the ginger fish!

"Sister, if you didn't take it, the Moonstone would naturally have no reaction and would not wrongly accuse you. Of course, if you are afraid that the Moonstone would react, you can also choose not to take any chances."

Facing Jiang Mengyao's relentless pressure, Jiang Yu lowered his head and sneered, "Okay, I'll fulfill your wish."

Jiang Yu walked up to Master Cao and placed his hand on the moon-white stone.

At this time, something amazing happened.

The white moonstone suddenly emitted a red light.

When Jiang Yu moved his hand away, the moonstone turned white again.

"Oh my god! The Moon White Stone is actually lit up!"

The servants nearby were extremely surprised and looked at Jiang Yu in strange ways.

"No way? Miss Jiang doesn't look like someone who would steal things, right?"

"You can't judge a person by his appearance. Besides, Miss Jiang will inevitably be greedy when faced with such a valuable necklace."

"I heard that lady's sapphire necklace was a treasure from the auction venue, worth tens of millions! How can human nature stand the test?"

……

Jiang Mengyao walked to Jiang Yu's side and sighed heavily, "Sister, if you really like that necklace, as your sister, I can give it to you despite the pain. Why did you have to steal it?"

"What is this Moon White Stone? If it can convict me just by shining, what is the point of the police and the law?"

Jiang Yu acted calm and as if this matter had nothing to do with her.

Hearing that they were going to call the police, Mr. Jiang became anxious, "Yaoyao, that necklace was given to Xiaoyu, what on earth are you making a fuss about now?"

"Grandpa, I gave it away willingly. It's different from being stolen and then forced to give it away. Sister, she committed a crime, we can't protect her."

Jiang Mengyao's words were well-reasoned and there was a hint of justice in her words.

[Fuck, who taught Jiang Mengyao this rhetoric? Isn't she just crying and playing the victim? Is she starting to use her brain now? ]

"Ms. Jiang, if you doubt the power of the Moonstone, you can put your hand on it and try again."

Master Cao handed the Moon White Stone to Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu looked at Master Cao coldly, "I not only question Yue Baishi, but also question your fraud."
