Chapter 30
When Mnie got home, Darrin was already there indeed.
Angie sat on the sofa casually and looked at Mnie with a smile.
“Stop smiling. What the hell happenedst night?”
“Well, we saw our Buddha statue, right? So I wanted to take it up and touch it.
“But there was a ck thing on the base. As soon as I put my hand on it, I lost
consciousness.”
Angie looked at Mnie aggrievedly. She didn’t want to hold them back as well. She was gonna
help them.
“It was an electric box.”
Darrin who had been keeping silent said, “A high–voltage pulse of millions of volts. It can kill people
instantly.”
Hearing that, Angie’s face turned pale with fear.
Mnie was also scared.
“That’s so vicious.”
“Ms. Robertson, I went into Steve’s bedroom and found thisst night.”

Then Darrin took out a photo.
It was an old photo.
. Steve looked like a
In the handsome young man with a woman in long hair standing beside him.
The woman was also young and charming, looking like Vanessa.
“This photo was put in the bedside table. It seems that Steve will take it out to look at it from time to
time,” said Darrin.
“Anything else?”
“Steven’s study was extremely well–guarded. There were two safes of different

sizes, but before I could check them…”
Then Darrin nced at Angie.
“Ms. Robertson, I’ll go there again tonight.”
“No.” Mnie shook her head.
“The Robertson family has called the police. Maybe they’re waiting for you to step into the trap.
“We have been focusing on Beloris all the time. Maybe we should try other directions.”
Then Mnie wrote down the word “Eistar” on the paper.
“Ms. Robertson, you mean we’re gonna go to Eistar.”
“Yes. Darrin, get ready for it and we’re going to Eistar in a few days. I heard that Tracy is also from
that city. Let’s get everything clear together.”
“Yes, Ms. Robertson.”
After Darrin left, Mnie grabbed Angie and began to check her pulse.
“Mnie, can you really treat people? Don’t fool me.”
“Nonsense. I can’t treat people, but I can tell whether you are sick or not.”
Mnie was still holding Angie’s arm.
“By the way, Mnie. How did you know Vanessa wasn’t pregnantst time? Did you know it from
her pulse?”
“I just guessed, in order to let William leave and find out the emergency exit of that building.”
Then Mnie continued the diagnosis with Angie’s other arm.
“That’s a good guess, then.”
Angie smiled and said, “Have you figured out what’s wrong with me? Have I be an electric
superwoman due to the electric shock?”

“You wish. You are absolutely fine.”
Mnie withdrew her hand and breathed a sigh of relief.
After a rest, they went to Rising Star in the afternoon.
Not long after they sat down, the Creative Department sent them the photos of the items in this
Spring Auction.
Suddenly, a photo attracted Mnie’s attention.
It was a jade statue of the Buddha, or to be precise, it was a photo of that Buddha
statue.
In the photo, the Buddha was looking down with his eyebrows and eyes lowered.
His right hand was raised and his wide sleeve had covered most of his face, leaving only half of his
right eye.
The whole Buddha statue had smooth lines and was exquisitely crafted. It didn’t. look like a fake at
all.
“The Buddha’s clothes were covering his face, and his eyes were lowering.”
This Buddha statue had been put in Mnie’s mother’s studio in the Robertson residence ever
since she could remember.
Mnie’s mother said that this Buddha statue was her grandfather’s favorite. treasure, and there
was only one in the world.
At that time, Mnie insisted on staying in Beloris, so her grandfather gave her this Buddha statue.
Mnie thought, ‘If the one in the storeroom in the Robertson residence is genuine, then this one
must be a fake.
‘But if the one in the Robertson residence is a fake, where does this onee
from?”
Mnie checked the owner of this Buddha statue and found that he was just an ordinary collector.
He got this collection after being introduced by someone eight years ago.
Now he wanted to sell it as soon as possible because his youngest son was getting
married.
Mnie wrote down a question mark on the photo and then asked Jeff to call the director of the
Creative Department toe over.
As soon as Mnie put down the phone, Angie came in screaming.
“Mnie, I have some big news.”
Mnie pinched her eyebrows.
“What kind of big news is worth you making such a fuss?”
“I’ve got two. First, Steve called the police and reported that the Buddha statue, agalloch bead and
several paintings were stolenst night. Second, Vanessa is awake.”
Mnie was stunned for a second. “The Buddha statue?”
“Yes.”
Mnie thought for a while and said affirmatively, “Steve must be framing others. But why did he do
that?”
“In order to divert others‘ attention? There’s nothing he can’t do, anyway.”
Angiey on the sofa with her legs crossed pleasantly.
Mnie shook her head.
“You said that Vanessa was awake?”
“Yes, she has woken up and even called the police. She said it was you who beat her.”
Angie shook her crossed legs.
“Then is the policeing soon?”
“No. The police called me just now and asked a few questions. Nothing happened.”
Seeing Mnie’s confused eyes, Angie smiled.
“The title of the Lambert family is really useful. I can finally be relieved.”
“What does it have anything to do with the Lambert family?”
“Mnie, this is your problem. You never read the news. Now everyone has known that you’re
Roderick’s love.”
Angie chuckled.
“What did you say?”
“Mnie, don’t panic. I think it’s good. With the Lambert family backing you up, you have nothing to
be afraid of in Beloris, and you can dispose of whoever you
want.”
“Nonsense. Are you lying to me?”
“No. What happened that day was such a big issue. The people of the Smith family have seen that
in person.”
Mnie was stunned for a second and then waved her hand.
“Forget about it. Now that Vanessa is awake, tell Jordon that we can start the n
now.”
“Okay.”
