After he finished speaking, Helian Junmo walked up and instinctively put his arms in front of Rong Chang.
Behind her, Rong Shang frowned. She wanted to stop him, but the man in front of her had already spoken.
"Since Your Excellency wants to search me, why should I refuse?"
"Heh." Hearing his confident tone, Allen sneered, his cold fingers casually pinching his brow. "You want me to search, but I just don't want to."
"Because... you definitely don't have anything on you."
Why would the murderer carry the murder weapon on his person?
They didn't know the exact time when the incident involving socialite Anna occurred, but within that timeframe, there should have been enough time for him to hide the silverware.
Displeased, Rong Shang pulled Helian Junmo's hand away and walked over. She glanced at Allen with amusement, "You keep changing your mind about searching, are you kidding me?"
"If I wasn't messing around with you, would you have stayed here this long?" After staring at her intently for a few seconds, Allen smiled and raised the corners of his lips.
Rong Shang's face was indifferent, "..."
"Oh, you've really gone to great lengths."
She turned her face away and took Helian Junmo's hand. "Can we go now?"
Allen didn't answer, so Rong Shang left immediately.
But then he looked over again and shouted, "Stop!"
"Not searching him doesn't mean he's not the murderer."
Rong Shang stopped abruptly and looked up at Helian Junmo, who returned her a reassuring smile.
Helian Junmo glanced at Allen, his eyes unfathomable. "In that case, Earl Allen, please think carefully about how to conduct the search. Yuan'er and I will cooperate fully with you."
With his arm around Rong Shang's waist, Helian Junmo gently stroked her hair. "Aren't you tired of standing?"
"tired."
Helian Junmo nodded and replied, "Okay."
The moment he uttered the word "good," a bad premonition arose, and Allen immediately looked over.
Sure enough, Helian Junmo had already picked up Rong Shang and walked towards the sofa behind her.
Allen's face darkened, and he almost swore.
This guy!
They knew they were already seated on the sofa, quietly waiting for him to search them.
Allen closed his eyes briefly, and a cold smile suddenly curled up on his thin, blood-red lips.
"Wesson".
Hearing Allen call his subordinates over, Rong Shang raised an eyebrow, wondering what he was up to.
Soon, the one called Weisen arrived.
"count."
"Okay, tell everyone what you saw when you were following Helian Junmo this evening."
She had long suspected Helian Junmo, and knew that Bo Yuan was blinded by him and wanted to protect him.
Therefore, Allen could only send his subordinates to secretly follow Helian Junmo.
A masquerade ball, huh? Does this guy think he can fool everyone?
On the sofa over there, when Rong Shang heard that Allen had already sent his men to follow Helian Junmo, she frowned and subconsciously tightened her grip on the man's hand.
But then she felt a warmth on the back of her hand, and the man beside her raised his hand and took it, then gently patted the back of her hand.
"It's alright." His deep, magnetic voice sounded in her ear, offering her comforting words.
Rong Shang nodded, then turned her sharp gaze to the man named Weisen, wanting to hear his thoughts and know what was going on beforehand.
Just then, Wesson suddenly lowered his head, his shoulders trembling, and said, "I'm sorry, Earl, I left for a while in the evening and I don't know what Helian Junmo did."
"Pfft..." Rong Shang couldn't help but laugh.
Wow, what luck! To run into someone who loves to slack off.
