The theft in the Marquis's Mansion is no small matter.

And it's something from a girl's boudoir.

Then we cannot ignore it, we must find the thief.

Otherwise, if the girl's things fall into the hands of others, and others turn around and slander Wei'er for having an affair, it will be no joke.

The Marquis and the old lady unanimously decided to report the case to the police and have a thorough investigation.

What Uncle Li brought was not the governor of Shuntian Prefecture, but the governor of Jiumen Commandery.

And the speed is quite fast.

We met at the gate of the mansion.

Yin Dutou personally took the yamen runners to the warehouse to check.

See if we can find any clues.

Everyone was waiting anxiously outside.

When I saw Yin Dutou walking out of the warehouse, I saw that he had a serious look on his face and frowned deeply.

He glanced at the people in the yard and finally set his sights on Miss Lan Er.

"Miss Lan Er, what did you lose?"

The old lady glanced at Nanny Jin.

Nanny Jin quickly handed the list to Director Yin.

"Master Governor, this is what our second daughter lost."

When Lan Kexin heard this, she burst out laughing.

There are so many nice names to call you, why do you have to call me "Master Dutou (Bald Head)"?

His hair is so long and thick. Is this a hint that if he continues working in this position, he will become bald early?

The yard was silent, and Lan Kexin's smile seemed particularly out of place.

Yin Dutou glanced at her and finally looked away.

The Marquis took a step forward and asked anxiously:

"Master Inspector, how is it? Can you find any clues? Or are there any suspicious thieves?"

Yin Dutou shook his head: "No, from my experience, this doesn't look like burglary at all, it looks more like a fair and square robbery."

The Marquis was stunned for a moment. Take it openly?

Apart from herself, who else would take it openly?

He thought of the false accusation and glanced at Lan Weiwei inconspicuously.

Lord Yin nodded: "Yes, there are two possibilities for this phenomenon. One is that Miss Lan moved her things away by herself and she forgot about it.

The second possibility is a thief in the family, and he is someone very familiar with Miss Lan Er. Think carefully, which one is it?"

Everyone focused their attention on Lan Weiwei's face.

Lan Weiwei looked at Lan Kexin.

"I don't know. Only my sister came to my yard today. I don't know who took my things. Sir, please help me check carefully again."

Lan Kexin put away the smile on her face.

Is she going to throw all this dirty water on her?

"What do you mean? Just say what you want to say, don't hide it."

"Sister, I didn't take anything from the warehouse, and you were the only one here today, so it's natural for me to doubt you." Lan Weiwei explained.

"So, you insist that I stole it?"

Lan shook his head slightly: "I didn't say that. I just asked the governor to help check and see if it's true. I believe the governor can clear your name."

Lan Kexin smiled sarcastically:

"Lan Weiwei, you're so hypocritical. You're acting like a hypocrite but you don't want to admit it. Do you really think that others can't see what you're thinking?"

"Sister, how can you speak like that? This is the proper procedure, Sir Governor, don't you agree?"

Yin Dutou frowned and nodded: "If it is indeed as Miss Lan Er said, Miss Lan Da, you are the biggest suspect."

Lan Kexin spread her hands and said, "If that's the case, I won't make it difficult for you. Since I came to Breeze Courtyard, I haven't left. Go ahead and check. Since she lost so many things, I wonder if my thin clothes can hide any of them."

According to the items listed on the list, it was obvious that they were not on Lan Kexin's body.

"You can give it to the maid to take it away." Lan Weiwei added quickly.

"How shameless! You may have forgotten one thing. I came here by myself tonight. My maidservant has never left Wutong Courtyard. Could it be that her spirit followed me here?"

Lan Kexin glanced at the old lady and the marquis who were present.

"What kind of situation am I in in this mansion? Not to mention you masters, even the maids know that I only have one maid by my side. If I want to take away your things, I need help at least."

Lan Weiwei just wanted Lan Kexin to be convicted of this crime.

She glanced at Lu Yi and asked her to come out and testify.

Lu Yi understood what he meant and took a step forward immediately.

"Sir, I can testify that the eldest lady did take the second lady's things. I just accidentally saw the lady's peach wood hairpin and a necklace from her sleeve. I don't believe she is innocent."

Lan Kexin said "Oh", it turned out that he was waiting for her here.

"If you dare to slander me, I will use your life to clear my name."

Lu Yi's body stiffened and she subconsciously looked at Lan Weiwei.

"Sister, you are too bloody. This is a peach wood hairpin. How can you take someone's life?"

Looking at Lan Weiwei who was pretending to be kind, Lan Kexin sneered:

"Is my innocence less important than a girl's life? You are so kind! Why do you insist on killing me?"

Lan Weiwei met Lan Kexin's eyes:

"Lu Yi never tells lies. Since she said that, it means she really saw it. If you ask the governor to search, won't the truth be revealed?"

Lan Kexin nodded in agreement with what she said:

"It's okay to search, but if you find nothing, you and your maid will have to apologize to me in front of everyone at the city gate. Otherwise, don't blame me for being merciless."

Thinking that the two things were on her and she had never left the yard.

As long as they can be found, the other missing things will definitely fall into her hands.

At that time, a charge of theft fell on her head.

What else is she so arrogant about?

Lan Weiwei nodded directly:

"Okay, if you can't find it, I'm willing to apologize to you."

Everyone exclaimed, feeling that this was not a good idea!

Lan Kexin ignored everyone and set her eyes on Lord Yin.

"Master Governor, thank you for your help."

Lord Yin was stunned for a moment.

I didn't expect Miss Lan to be so generous.

You know, she was going to be searched.

If this gets out, her reputation will be ruined.

Who would dare to marry such a girl in the future?

Seeing that Lord Yin hesitated, Lan Weiwei urged:

"Could it be that Lord Yin and my sister are old acquaintances? That's why he doesn't dare to take action?"

This is a suspicion that he is using his public power for personal gain.

Lord Yin sneered:

"Second Miss, stop talking nonsense and worry about your own situation first!"

"Since it's not him, then search it quickly and don't waste time here." Lan Weiwei urged.

Lan Kexin kindly reminded her:

"Lan Weiwei, think carefully. After this search, you will have to go to the city gate and apologize to me in front of the entire city. Even so, do you still insist on letting the governor search you?"

She knew that Lan Kexin was deliberately trying to scare her.

She didn't want to be searched, but she insisted.

"I'm absolutely certain. We must search."

"Okay, Sir, hurry up! Don't hesitate. I will bear any consequences."

The governor closed his eyes and gritted his teeth.

Just as he reached out to touch Lan Kexin.

A cold voice came: "Wait."
