Hearing these words, Wen Shiyu’s face was ugly.
If her gown broke on stage, the consequences, she didn’t even dare to think about it.
Who on earth, would want to harm her like that!
The others also thought of this and were in an uproar.
“That’s too bad.”
“How could someone do something so underhanded.”
The headwaiter looked at the murmuring crowd and raised the volume and said in a deep voice, “The dresses of the performers tonight were all provided by the royal family, and the one on Miss Wen is even more valuable, worth millions, so I hope everyone present will cooperate with our investigation.”
“That’s natural, Squire, feel free to investigate.”
Some people echoed.
After all, the words had come to this point, so even if they didn’t want to, they didn’t dare to refuse to mess around.
It was Elletha who stood in the crowd and panicked for a moment.
The a*sistant beside her, whose face was no better, was disturbed.
“What to do, what to do, will we be found out?”
She asked in a whisper, tugging fearfully at Elletha’s sleeve.
Elletha drew back her sleeve and frowned lightly, “What are you panicking about, it’s just an investigation, is there any evidence, give me some composure.”
After the words were said, she stopped paying attention to her a*sistant.
Ahead of her, she also began to conduct an inventory.
The check was quick, and in a short while, it was Eliza’s turn.
“Miss Elletha, where were you during this period, did you see any suspicious people?”
The guard said a time period for questioning.
Elletha shook her head with a bemused expression, “No, I didn’t see any, I was in the dressing room talking to other people at that time and wasn’t paying attention, so I was completely unaware.”
The attendant nodded and turned his head to ask the a*sistant.
The a*sistant, too, forced her composure and responded to the guard, following Elrosa’s example.
“I didn’t know either, and I was looking after Elleza at the time, so I wasn’t even paying attention to what was going on around me.”
Seeing that the two did not look like they were lying, the guard proceeded to the next step.
“Now we need to check your personal belongings.”
“Good.”
Elrosa and her a*sistant simply couldn’t refuse and had to hand over their carry-on handbags.
The guard emptied out the contents of the bag and examined them in front of the two.
It was a mixed bag, but the guards were very meticulous in their examination.
They picked out the sharp things.
Soon, they found a hobby knife at the a*sistant’s place.
And it was this hobby knife that was the problem.
It was because the knife was stained with a sequin, exactly the same as the one on the dress Wen Shiyu was wearing.
At this time, the a*sistant also noticed the problem, and her pupils shrank slightly in fear, and her face turned pale.
Without waiting for her to say anything, the chief guard’s cold, stern voice came to her ears.
“Take her down.”
At those words, the other guards immediately stepped forward to take control of the a*sistant.
The a*sistant was so scared that her legs went weak, and if the guards hadn’t grabbed her, she would have been on her knees at this moment.
“It’s not me, it’s not me.”
She shook her head in defence.
But no one listened to her.
Wen Shiyu gave her a cold-eyed look before her eyes turned to Ai Le Sha, her eyes taboo.
Eliza was actually scared silly at this point.
When she saw the cold glare from Wen Shiyu, her senses instantly returned to her.
She knew very well that she must not be involved in this matter.
Therefore, when everyone failed to react, she stepped forward with an irritated face and directly incited her a*sistant.
“Why are you doing this?!”
She looked at the a*sistant angrily, but her eyes carried a deep meaning.
The a*sistant was dumbfounded by the blow, but soon realised the meaning in Elletha’s eyes.
Clearly, Elletha was asking her to take the blame.
But she didn’t dare to deny it, after all, that dress was over a million dollars, and it wasn’t something she could compensate for at all.
So, she could only rely on Elletha.
In the end, she gritted her teeth and casually found an excuse to admit her guilt.
“I just can’t stand to see her as a sightless person.”
Unexpectedly, as soon as the words left her mouth, Hebrew and Prince Albert’s couple walked over to take a peek.
“How’s the investigation going?”
“The killer has been caught.”
