Chapter 559 Black Plush Coal Doll "Have you checked the surveillance footage?" The police officer inquired.

"We have." The person in charge, Gilbert Covington, replied, "But unfortunately, there are blind spots, so nothing was visible." Celeste, standing beside Zelena, couldn't suppress a smug smirk upon hearing this.

She had exploited those very blind spots to execute her plan.

Polly was destined to be the scapegoat, and there was no escaping that fate.

After further discussion, the event was cleared to proceed, and the fans in the front row were already buzzing with anticipation.

The police agreed to take Polly and her assistant, Margot Wagner, back to the station for questioning.

But Polly was adamant.

"I'm not going!" she exclaimed.

As a celebrity, being escorted away by the police in front of her fans would irrevocably damage her career.

This couldn't be the end.

She had done nothing wrong and refused to confess to a crshe didn't commit.

The person in charge was taken aback. "Huh?" "I didn't do it!" Polly shouted. "Why should I go with the police? Someone else deliberately planted the necklace in my makeup bag!" The staff member who had searched the bag stepped forward. "Do you have any evidence?" "Indeed, Ms. Tillery," the police officer calmly echoed, "do you have any evidence to prove that someone framed you?" Evidence, huh? A sinister gleam flickered in Zelena's eyes.

How could Polly possibly have any evidence? This was likely just a desperate last stand.

"Of course I have evidence!" Polly declared righteously.

Zelena was stunned.

"If you have evidence, then show it quickly," the person in charge urged.

"Yeah, show it now," the police officer agreed.

Polly said, "I had prepared this just in case, but I didn't expect it would actually cin handy." Margot was equally shocked.

She had been terrified of being taken away with Polly, but it seemed Polly was more prepared than she had thought. Slowly, Polly removed a plush doll from her bag strap.

"This is the evidence!" Zelena was the first to express her disbelief. "Are you kidding? How can this be evidence?" Others echoed her sentiment, "We what is this? Is she just saying randon things because she doesn't want to go with the police? Isn't this just a doll?" Polly smirked. She unzipped the back of the doll and retorted, "This thing looks like a doll on the outside, but it's more than meets the eye!" The black plush coal doll in her hand was actually a gift from Violeta.

When they wrapped up filming for Island Homecoming, Violeta had specifically given this gift to Polly.

When Polly first received the gift, she also thought it was just an ordinary coal doll.

But after Violeta demonstrated it to her, Polly realized that it was actually a miniature recording camera.

It didn't have much memory and could only record about five minutes of video.

The memory card could be inserted into a computer to view, or it could automatically upidad to a phone. The doll's pitch-black eyes were actually the camera lenses. At the time, Polly was quite surprised and asked, "Vio, why did you givethis? It's pretty interesting."

Violeta smiled faintly and said, "I thought it looked fun, sg I bought it. You can hang it on your bag as a EHN charm. Keep it. If you ever get a chance to meet or work with Zelena, make sure to use it." Polly didn't understand what Violeta meant and looked puzzled.

She asked, "Zelena? What do you mean? Why would I need to use this when working with Zelena? Is it to guard against her?" Violeta replied, "Exactly." Violeta had given Polly a heads-up.

She had clearly warned Polly that Zelena was not to be underestimated and that she should always be on her guard around her.

But at that time, Polly hadn't taken Violeta's words seriously.

Firstly, she hadn't had any conflicts with Zelena yet.

Secondly, she didn't think this little gadget would really be of much use.

However, since the coal doll was cute, she decided to keep it as a charm and hang it on her bag strap.
