After traveling through time, the four best friends were all targeted by the boss

Meng Yin grabbed Xiahou Jing's collar and asked her to look at it: "What is this? How dare you lie to us."

Xia Houjing shook her head desperately: "No, I don't know this!"

Meng Yin shook her off and looked at the nun behind her: "Who usually watches her? Call that person over."

The nun nodded and did as she was told.

Meng Yin continued: "Who did you do this with?"

Xiahou Jing panted and said, "It's not me! I've been here all day, how could I have the chance to go out!"

Meng Yin said coldly: "If you want to do those things, do you have to go there in person?"

Xiahou Jing was choked up and wanted to say something. Meng Yin asked Qiao Yi, "Can you hypnotize her and make her tell the truth?"

Qiao Yi nodded: "Yes, ma'am."

Meng Yin said: "Okay, take her back for interrogation."

"I am from the Xiahou family! Why do you take me away without permission? I want to report to the police!"

Meng Yin didn't even want to look at her. She just pinched her brows and waved the token in front of her: "Look carefully at your current situation."

After a while, the nun came, followed by a woman who was also dressed in gray, but she was obviously older and had wrinkles on her face.

As soon as she came in, Tao Tao smelled a strange fragrance on her.

But the smell was not particularly strong, it was just that Tao Tao's sense of smell was extraordinary, so she could smell it immediately.

The nun put her hands together and saluted: "Young lady."

Meng Yin asked directly: "Are you the one who usually looks after her? What's your name?"

"My poor nun's Dharma name is Huiyu."

"Has she been behaving strangely lately, or is there anyone lingering outside the temple?"

Huiyu glanced at Xiahou Jing and said, "Uh... this."

"Just say it."

Xiahou Jing shouted, "I've been here all day! What can she say?"

Xu Zheng stuffed a handkerchief into her mouth and said angrily, "Shut up! Damn old woman!"

Xiahou Jing glared at her with resentment in her eyes.

Huiyu nodded slightly and said in a deep voice: "A few days ago, I saw a man wandering outside at night, but the guards were all drinking, so I didn't dare to say anything."

Xiahou Jing widened her eyes in disbelief and made a humming sound.

Meng Yin took a deep breath, turned around and took the thing out of Xiahou Jing's mouth, and said, "You still don't confess!"

Xiahou Jing glared at her and shouted, "Why would I confess? Is what she said necessarily true? And how could that man definitely come to find me?!"

"Okay." Meng Yin didn't say much to her and prepared to let Qiao Yi hypnotize her.

Tao Tao suddenly pulled her outside.

Meng Yin asked: "What's wrong?"

Tao Tao glanced at Huiyu and whispered, "Yinyin, I just smelled a fragrance on Huiyu. I also smelled it in the doctor's room."

Meng Yin immediately asked, "Are you sure? Taozi."

"Yes, that fragrance is the scent of a very expensive body cream. Yiqing gave it to me before, and I only used it once. It has a unique smell and is easy to get attached to. The smell will linger for a long time." Tao Tao said.

Meng Yin immediately understood and said, "So... this matter may really have nothing to do with Xiahou Jing, but with that nun! She wants to mislead us to suspect Xiahou Jing?!"

Tao Tao nodded and said, "I heard from Mo Yun that this kind of moisturizing cream is very precious. Unless you are a young lady from a wealthy family, you can't buy it. There is something wrong with this nun."

Meng Yin patted the back of her hand: "Good! Taozi, I'm glad to have you."

When the two came back, Meng Yin gave Qiao Yi a look, and she immediately came over to suppress Huiyu.

"Hey, girl, what are you doing?!"

Meng Yin ignored her and asked another nun, "Where does she live?"

The nun obviously hadn't expected this, and replied with chattering teeth: "Just a little bit in front..."

Meng Yin waved her hand: "Come with her, some people, search the house!"

Tao Tao followed him, as she was the only one who recognized that kind of moisturizer.

Huiyu suddenly became anxious and shouted, "Girl! If you want to arrest someone, you need evidence!"

Meng Yin glanced at her, turned around and sat on the chair, supporting her forehead with her hands.

"Are you officials treating us ordinary people like this?"

Xu Zheng pointed at her and yelled, "Shut up! Say one more word to her!"

She walked to Meng Yin, bent down and asked, "Yin Yin, why did you suddenly grab her?"

Meng Yin raised her red eyes, which were filled with hatred. She said, "We were almost misled."

Before Xu Zheng understood what was going on, the person who had gone out to search came back with a box in his hands.

When I opened it, I saw a lot of jewelry, some small change and silver bills inside.

Tao Tao walked in quickly, holding an exquisite box in her hand: "This is it!"

Huiyu's face turned pale immediately, and she said, "You...you guys should dress properly, but you don't allow us to have some private money!"

As soon as she said this, she was rebuked by another nun: "What are you talking about? The temple clearly states that we cannot be trapped by gold and silver!"

"I..." Huiyu was speechless for a moment.

Meng Yin narrowed her eyes and picked up a magnolia-shaped hairpin. "I think I've seen this hairpin before."

She tried hard to recall, and a figure flashed through her mind, but it was not clear enough.

Meng Yin stood up suddenly and said, "Tell me, who gave you these things!"

Huiyu avoided her gaze and opened her mouth but refused to speak.

"You won't tell me, right?" Meng Yin sneered and nodded, "Qiao Yi, pry her mouth open!"

Qiao Yi freed his hand, and when the red bug was still a fist away from Huiyu, her eyes rolled back and she fainted.

"Fuck!" Xu Zheng slammed the table hard.

"Wake her up." Meng Yin said, holding the hairpin tightly.

The nun hesitated and said, "Young lady, in a Buddhist place, the sight of blood is not allowed. Please..."

Looking at the sky, it was almost noon, but they still had no news from Xia Nian.

"Take him away." Meng Yin said.

The cold wind blew, and the three of them felt their hands and feet were cold. What about Nian Nian? She was kidnapped at night, how scared she must have been when she woke up.

"What should I do? I'm so worried..." Tao Tao cried out, covering her face with her hands.

Xu Zheng gritted her teeth and hugged her.

Meng Yin said in a hoarse voice: "Nian Nian is smart, we must trust her. Now, we must stay calm and catch the person who framed Nian Nian, so that we can know where she is."

She took a deep breath, the murderous intent in her eyes could not be hidden: "Only then can I get revenge!"

-

When Xia Nian woke up, his whole body was frozen.

The moon was still overhead and it was still night, so that group of people might still be looking for her.

But she couldn't stay here. Given her current physical condition, it would be easy for something to happen to her.

Xia Nian looked at her palm and tore off a corner of her skirt to re-bandage the wound. Her hands were stiff and trembling when she moved.

She tied up her messy hair, supported herself on the ground with a dagger, and got up from the ground.

The forest is not dense, the trees are not tall but thick, and the terrain is not complicated.

But she didn't know the way, so she could only walk in the opposite direction relying on the little memory she had of the way here.

The autumn night was cold, and Xia Nian's heavy breathing was all white mist. She was not moving fast, and when she rolled down the slope, the thorny plants scratched her legs and arms, and her knees hit the stones, so she could only limp forward.

She thought to herself, if anyone saw her walking in the woods in such a dark night wearing a red dress, they would definitely think she was a ghost, or an evil ghost at that.

Xia Nian, however, was not afraid at all. She had only one thought, which was to get out alive, catch the people who hurt her, and cut them into pieces.

Her mind was extremely firm, and she walked for half an hour with this idea in mind, until she noticed that her vision was gradually becoming blurry, and she had to stop to catch her breath.

His throat felt dry, and Xia Nian looked around. The trees were growing randomly, like a hundred ghosts parading at night.

She thought for a second, cut her knuckles with the dagger again, and sipped the liquid.

The smell of blood spread in her throat, and she temporarily regained her consciousness and continued to move forward, dragging her feet.

After a few more incense sticks had passed, Xia Nian could no longer hold on any longer. He held his stomach and leaned against a tree, gasping for breath.

She sat down, head tilted back, body curled up, trying to keep herself warm and sane.

But the wind was particularly strong at night, and she felt dizzy and her nose and cheeks were abnormally red.
