Chapter 181 Nested Dolls

Ye Xinghe thought to herself, since the old lady allowed her to enter the Buddhist prayer room, it must mean that everything inside must be well hidden.

The old lady has fainted and gone to the hospital. If she uses illness as an excuse to stay in the hospital and doesn't go home, she won't be able to enter the Buddhist prayer room tomorrow.

Seeing that Ye Xinghe looked preoccupied, Qiao Lin said, "Miss, should I break down the door and go in tonight to take a look?"

"Absolutely not." Ye Xinghe's face darkened, and she frowned. "I suspect that the door to that room must have an alarm system installed. They won't let us in so easily. I don't want to alert them yet."

Qiao Lin whispered in her ear, "If we can't go through the door, we'll go through the window."

“I went down from the third floor, and the locks on these windows are easy to open.”

Ye Xinghe looked at her silently, her eyes filled with conflict. "We don't know what's inside the room. What if there are security cameras? What if there's an electric fence on the window? What if there are other traps inside? We need to think about all these things in advance."

Qiao Lin continued, "That's very simple."

"While everyone is asleep, I'll turn off the power and then sneak in."

Ye Xinghe suddenly smiled, opened her arms and hugged Qiao Lin, resting her head on Qiao Lin's shoulder. She stayed in this position for a long time before slowly speaking, "Qiao Lin, besides money, what else do you want? I will help you with anything I can."

Qiao Lin pushed Ye Xinghe away, saying with a hint of disdain, "Don't be so sentimental, it clashes with your domineering personality."

"Besides, I only like money."

The two stayed in Ye Xinghe's room until midnight.

The entire villa was quiet at this time, and everyone had gone back to their rooms to rest.

Grandma Ye and Ye Mingqi are at the hospital and won't be back tonight.

Ye Xinghe and Qiao Lin went upstairs to the Buddhist prayer room, where there was a restroom.

Qiao Lin tied one end of the rope around his waist and the other end to the water pipe.

Ye Xinghe instructed, "Be careful. If you can't open the window, come back immediately."

Qiao Lin gave an "OK" sign. "If I get in successfully, I'll shake the rope to let you know. You should retract the rope and close the window. I'm worried that there might be patrols outside who might notice."

"When I get back, I'll send you a message. Open the window and check if anyone is outside before lowering the rope."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qiao Lin nimbly climbed down from the window.

Just five minutes later, Qiao Lin sent a signal, and Ye Xinghe put away the rope and closed the window.

Qiao Lin turned on her phone's flashlight, then covered it with her clothes to dim the light.

As soon as she entered, she smelled a strong incense aroma, followed by a chill that seemed to seep into her bones.

Qiao Lin stuffed a wad of paper into his nostrils and slowly walked inside, using the dim light.

On the east and west walls of the room, there was a table about three meters long, covered with various Buddhist statues from China, as well as offerings, incense burners, and candlesticks.

Three large prayer cushions were placed between the two tables.

To the right of the entrance was a small cubicle filled with incense, candles, and joss paper. In the innermost corner of the room stood a small cube-shaped box.

Qiao Lin walked closer and saw that it was a safe.

She lit the spirit-guiding candle again, but the white smoke didn't drift towards the safe; instead, it drifted towards the main room outside.

And after the wisp of white smoke reached the main room, it slowly dispersed into dozens of wisps, which then drifted directly into the Buddha statue on the table!

Qiao Lin approached and carefully picked up a Buddha statue. Just as she had imagined, it contained a "little devil".

She restored the Buddha statue to its original state, sent a message to Ye Xinghe, and soon the rope was lowered.

Qiao Lin recounted the situation in the Buddhist worship room to Ye Xinghe, saying, "I've checked it. The Buddha statues are just a cover; there's a little devil inside each one."

"The safe in the cubicle is the most suspicious thing right now. But we can't rule out that they're just trying to confuse us and draw our attention to it."

Ye Xinghe nodded gently, "How many of those things do you think there are?"

Qiao Lin replied, "Two tables, each three meters long, were almost entirely filled with Buddha statues. They varied in size, and there were probably fifty or sixty of them in total."

Ye Xinghe was shocked, her eyebrows almost furrowing together. "There are so many."

No wonder Grandpa told her not to get involved. If there are so many at home, then there must be even more at Sanbao Temple!

We need to find a way to move everything out of there! If Grandma doesn't come back by tomorrow, that'll be the best opportunity! But there's so much stuff, how are we going to handle it!

Ye Xinghe was having a headache from thinking about it, so she decided to put this matter aside for now, as she had something else she needed to do immediately.

"Qiao Lin, go unlock Ye Shuang's room now, and then go and rest."

Qiao Lin looked at Ye Xinghe with a puzzled expression. "Miss, is there anything you can ask me to do?"

Ye Xinghe held the clippers and gave a cold smile. "I must handle this matter personally."

Qiao Lin tiptoed to Ye Shuang's bedroom door, took a wire, and quickly opened the door.

Ye Xinghe pushed open the door and went straight to Ye Shuang's bedside.

It was already one o'clock in the morning, and Ye Shuang was fast asleep. In her drowsy state, she heard a "buzzing" sound in her ear. Without opening her eyes, she waved her arms haphazardly.

The buzzing sound disappeared for a moment, then started again.

Ye Shuang fumbled for the bedside lamp and turned it on. She vaguely saw someone sitting beside her bed, instantly banishing all sleepiness!

Ye Xinghe was holding clippers and looking at her with a smile.

Ye Shuang was terrified and shouted, "How did you get in? Dad—!"

"Shh!" Ye Xinghe made a shushing gesture, holding the crystal ornament that Chu Mofan had given to Ye Shuang in her other hand, weighing it up and down in her hand, "If you shout again, this thing will immediately turn into a pile of glass shards."

Ye Shuang curled up at the head of the bed, covering her entire body with the blanket, only her head showing. "You...how did you...get in? You...what do you want?"

Ye Xinghe turned the pusher on and off, her tone very relaxed, "How else could I have gotten in? You locked the door, so naturally I just picked it open."

"You're still asking me what I'm going to do... Ye Shuang, is your memory that bad?"

Ye Xinghe's smile widened. "I told you, I can't let my hair turn white."

Ye Shuang trembled with fear at the sight of Ye Xinghe. She felt that Ye Xinghe's smile was very unfriendly, even ghostly.

"That...that wasn't...it wasn't me who cut...your hair..."
