Help! My pet supervillain has three personalities!

The magistrate slammed his gavel and asked, "Steward, I ask you, you said that Miss Tang kidnapped your master, so when and where did she kidnap him?"

"Yes Yes……"

“It was five days ago, when my master was kidnapped on his way home after inspecting the shops,” the First Madam interjected.

Tang Yue couldn't stand seeing the First Madam so calm. Behind every successful man there is a powerful woman, and behind every pervert there is another pervert. She reached out to interrupt the First Madam, "Wait a minute. Since the First Madam has answered so clearly, I think the magistrate wouldn't mind interrogating them one by one, would he?"

The magistrate said, "Miss Tang is right. Guards, take the steward away first, and I will interrogate them one by one."

"Yes, my lord."

The steward was taken away, leaving only Wang Gou lying on one side, the First Madam, and her maid in the hall.

"Madam Wang, let me ask you, does Wang Gou usually bring guards when he inspects the shops?"

The First Madam's palms were sweaty. She might be adept at handling matters in the inner quarters, ruthless and decisive, but here, she clearly showed fear. She dared not answer carelessly and could only tell the truth, hoping that the steward would be quick-witted.

The First Madam glanced at the half-dead Wang Gou, closed her eyes, and said, "Reporting to Your Excellency, I will take care of him."

"Then tell me, how many guards did Wang Gou bring with him on the day he was kidnapped?"

"He...he didn't bring any guards."

Why didn't you bring it?

"The master left in a hurry and didn't take it with him."

Did the butler go with them?

"The butler was with the master that day."

The magistrate stroked his beard before continuing, "Then why did the steward return home unharmed, while Wang Gou ended up like this?"

"This... I don't know why either."

"Then why didn't you switch people back before paying when you paid the money?"

“I…I wasn’t there at the time, I didn’t know.”

"Who else was there at the time?"

"Only the butler went."

"Why not send someone and the steward together? As far as I know, the steward doesn't know any martial arts, does he?"

"This is...this is what the kidnappers demanded: that the butler go alone."

"Okay, you can go now. I'll interrogate the butler later."

The First Madam was led away, brushing past the steward without even exchanging a word.

The steward was taken away, and the magistrate repeated the same questions, but the results were completely different. Therefore, the case was now closed.

There's always a mastermind behind the Wang family's troubles, but today's interrogation results show that it couldn't have been Tang Yue and the other two.

Tang Yue had anticipated that the First Madam would not reveal that matter. The county magistrate was a corrupt official. If he knew that Wang Gou had such a bad habit and had killed countless innocent children, their vast Wang Mansion would surely be ransacked. After all, the most powerful head of the Wang family was already crippled.

In their family, only the first wife had a son who had just come of age. As for the other concubines, well, how could they possibly compete with their perverted wife?

The magistrate forced Lady Wang and Wang Gou to sign the document, and then, according to the false report, gave each of them twenty strokes of the cane before releasing them.

As for Tang Yue and the others, they were unharmed, though they spent a lot of money. But it doesn't matter, she'll steal it back tonight anyway. Anyone who wants her money can only dream about it.

After the case was closed, the magistrate personally saw them out.

The magistrate, with a fawning expression, said, "Miss Tang, I was careless this time and was deceived. I'm sorry. Please come again next time you have time."

Tang Yue twitched her lips. Who would go to the yamen to play around for no reason?

"Your Excellency, there's no need to see us off. We'll be leaving now. We just hope you'll keep an eye on the Wang family and prevent them from causing any more trouble."

"Yes, I will take Miss Tang's instructions to heart."

Tang Yue and the other two left the county government office. On the way, Jun Lingmo spoke up.

"Wang Gouzhen wasn't caused by you?"

Tang Yue blinked and said innocently, "Amo, look at my little arms and legs, how could I possibly move such a big pig? Besides, how could I do such a cruel thing? Those were all done by a perverted killer."

Shen Zhiyun, who was standing to the side, burst out laughing at Tang Yue's joke.

Tang Yue tilted her head and looked at Shen Zhiyun, "Ayun, you don't believe me?"

Shen Zhiyun covered her lips. "I believe it, I believe it. How could someone as innocent as Yue be such a perverted... serial killer?"

Jun Lingmo didn't mince words, "Heh, so where did your money come from?"

"Oh, it's Fatty Zheng. He's so rich, I always get all my money from him." Sorry, Fatty, I'm just using you as a shield.

Jun Lingmo remained silent, convinced that she was the culprit.

"Alright, alright, to celebrate our survival, let's go have a meal and celebrate. It's on me, let's go!" Tang Yue pushed the two handsome men to the Summer Hot Pot restaurant and ordered a four-compartment snail rice noodle hot pot.

She also took out two bottles of Coke from her storage space and asked the "boss" to put them in ice to chill them.

Looking at the packed hot pot restaurant, Jun Lingmo suddenly had a flash of inspiration. He felt like he knew something, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

Shen Zhiyun looked curiously at the contents of the other people's pots, and they seemed pretty good.

The waiter quickly brought the hot pot over, and Tang Yue helped Shen Zhiyun and herself mix the sauce before sitting down.

Jun Lingmo looked at his empty desk, then at the sauce in Shen Zhiyun's bowl. Why didn't he make sauce for him?

He glanced at Tang Yue and found that she hadn't even looked at him, but was instead showering Shen Zhiyun with concern.

"Ah Yun, this is an oil-based dipping sauce, this is a dry dipping sauce, and this is my own favorite sauce recipe. When you eat later, see which one you like. I didn't put much in for you..."

"Snap," Jun Lingmo put down his chopsticks and went to make the sauce himself.

Tang Yue gave him a puzzled look, then continued explaining to Shen Zhiyun, "I didn't put much chili in it for you. Your injury hasn't fully healed yet, so you can't eat too much chili. Also, this pot has four flavors: this side is snail rice noodles, this side is spicy, and this side is seafood..."

Jun Lingmo took the small bowl and walked to the sauce area. He slapped the sauce counter in frustration. Why was he slapping the chopsticks for no reason?

Hmph, it must be that fat bastard is too ugly and it's in his eyes.

Tang Yue was telling Shen Zhiyun about hot pot when someone next to her suddenly made a witty remark.

"Look at the table next to you, those country bumpkins are pretending to be rich and eating at a restaurant."

Tang Yue's good mood was instantly ruined.

She hates it when people are divided into different classes during meals.

She moved Shen Zhiyun to her own seat, then sat down next to Shen Zhiyun, and said with a smile, "Ah Yun, let me tell you a joke."
