Chapter 582: Blood Clan Loyal Butler vs. Godly Lady 12
The flying magic carpet was a magical artifact presented by a wizard to Prince John as a tribute. It was priceless and the other vampires had been coveting it for a long time.
Prince John gave the magic carpet to Lisa on her birthday last year.
"Why did you suddenly disappear?"
Prince John rose suddenly.
Lisa burst into tears: "I put the magic carpet on the sofa after using it yesterday. Who knew that when I got up today, it was gone."
Quan Jiu glanced at Lisa's poor acting skills and twitched the corners of his mouth.
It's no wonder that the magic carpet is in her room.
Prince John was furious and comforted his "heartbroken" daughter:
"Don't worry, I'll send someone to search right away."
After a while, the search team found the flying magic carpet in Quanjiu's room.
Everyone present was smart and kept silent, watching John and his daughter singing the same tune.
"Xixier, do you have anything else to say?"
"I didn't even go back to my room last night. Lu Zhiyao can testify to that." Quan Jiu remained calm throughout the whole process. "If it really doesn't work, you can check the surveillance."
Prince John didn't expect that a three-year-old child was wrongly accused in public, but he could remain calm and list the evidence in a clear and orderly manner. He was surprised for a moment and immediately looked at Chris.
Chris nodded and sent someone to check the surveillance footage.
As expected, the surveillance camera did not capture Quan Jiu returning to his room.
Just then, Prince John suddenly pointed to the spiral staircase outside the balcony.
"She can still come back this way."
The spiral staircase leads from the first floor to the top floor, passing by the terrace of the hotel's second-floor room.
The captain of the escort team looked embarrassed: "There is no surveillance here."
He walked over to check, and unexpectedly found several shoe prints on the spiral staircase, which were obviously children's shoe sizes.
Quan Jiu: “…”
He really went to great lengths to frame her.
Prince John's method was not sophisticated. He only needed to check the surveillance camera in the corridor outside Lu Zhiyao's room to prove that she had never come out since she entered the room last night.
After she made the request, Chris suddenly looked at her with a complicated expression.
After a long moment, the man nodded.
…
"Chief, the surveillance video at the door of Master Zhiyao's room is broken."
The captain of the guard glanced nervously at Chris's face.
Quan Jiu narrowed his eyes slightly, how could such a coincidence happen?
She glanced at Prince John and found that the man was also stunned for a moment when he heard the news.
When humans hear the news, their subconscious micro-expressions cannot be false. Prince John was really surprised by the fact that the surveillance video was broken.
Quan Jiu lowered his eyes, feeling that something was wrong.
"Chief Chris, if you ask me, there's no need to watch the surveillance video. The shoe prints are the most powerful evidence."
Prince John did not expect any unexpected surprise, so he spoke with full confidence.
Quan Jiu frowned and was about to speak when he looked up and met Chris's cold eyes.
What she wanted to say got stuck in her throat.
The man was not dressed in formal attire, only a well-made white shirt. His face was still the same, but the look in his eyes when he looked at her was more indifferent and cold than ever before.
"Hill, do you have anything else to say?"
Quan Jiu's eyebrows flashed with displeasure, and just as he was about to retort, a light suddenly flashed in his mind.
She opened her thin lips slightly, and looked at Chris in shock, as if she understood something.
John already had a lot of power in the vampire clan, but even he couldn't guarantee that he could destroy all the surveillance footage in such a short time...
Anyone who can do this must have power over Prince John.
Quan Jiu clenched his fingers and raised his neck to look at Chris.
He was 1.88 meters tall, and she could only look up at him with difficulty.
"I won't admit to something I haven't done."
Chris stared at the little kid in front of him with a complicated expression, but his words were heartless.
"But they have physical evidence, and you don't."
Quan Jiufen pursed his lips tightly and said nothing.
Prince John was delighted and continued, "I can let the bombing go, but the theft..."
"She couldn't possibly steal anything!" Lu Zhiyao said firmly, standing in front of Quan Jiu without a second thought. "Hill was with me the whole night. How could she possibly have the time to steal anything?"
Prince John smiled softly and harmlessly:
"Zhiyao, if I remember correctly, you didn't return to your room until after dawn this morning? The nights are so long, who can guarantee that she won't be so angry that she'll break into Lisa's room and steal in the middle of the night?"
Lu Zhiyao's face turned red with anger, but he couldn't find a strong reason to refute him.
Quan Jiu didn't bother to pay attention to John. She stood in front of Chris and kept looking up at him.
"Why?"
John's words actually had many loopholes, which she could see, but she didn't believe that Chris, as the patriarch, couldn't see it.
Chris looked into her clear and clean lake green eyes, and for a moment he felt that all his "evil deeds" were seen through by the three-year-old child in front of him.
Perhaps it was because her eyes were too bright and clear that he dared not look directly at them.
Chris avoided her probing gaze and said, "Hill, if you do something wrong, you must accept the punishment."
Quan Jiu answered irrelevantly and looked at his tall figure:
"Chris, I hate being wronged."
Chris pressed his lips into a straight line, but didn't look back at her.
Quan Jiu lowered his furry head and repeated slowly in a low voice:
“It’s really annoying.”
Especially those who treat her well first and then deceive her.
It's not okay even if it's out of hardship.
There were other ways to treat her well, but he chose the worst one.
She doesn't need to be self-righteous and do things for her own good.
Chris's red eyes flickered.
Something precious was floating in the air, and he seemed to be able to grasp it with just one hand, but when he raised his hand, his arm finally fell down weakly.
He promised, just this once.
Prince John smiled triumphantly, intending to take this opportunity to kidnap this little girl of unknown ancestry and study her carefully:
"Chief Chris, if you ask me..."
Chris put his hands behind his back and interrupted him indifferently:
"The vampires don't keep people with bad behavior. Hill, pack your bags and leave this afternoon."
The smile on Prince John's face froze. This was completely different from what he had expected. He wanted to say something but was interrupted coldly by Chris.
"This matter ends here. I don't want to hear any more controversy about this matter."
…
Quan Jiu packed his luggage.
Lu Zhiyao went to Chris to plead for mercy, but no one knew what happened and he hasn't come back yet.
The housekeeper appeared at the right time: "Miss Hill, the patriarch asked me to take you there."
Quan Jiu handed the vine necklace to the butler:
"No, just give this back to him for me."
She didn't have much luggage, just a cell phone, a charger and a few changes of clothes.
Chris had never treated her badly before, and she still had quite a bit of money in her account.
Quan Jiu was carrying a little yellow duck backpack that was bigger than her and was walking towards the gate alone.
She didn't have a single friend in the vampire clan, and because of Chris's order, the maid who had taken care of her since she was a child didn't dare to come and see her off.
The manor is vast and seems to have no end.
Her thin figure walked among them, looking inexplicably miserable and pitiful.
The butler respectfully presented the necklace to Chris:
"Sir, Miss Hill turned down your driver and asked me to return this to you."
