Q: Since the uncle gave the robe to the eldest brother and asked him to give it to the younger brother, why does the eldest brother doubt the younger brother first and not the uncle? Moreover, the robe was given to the younger brother by him, and logically he knew that he could not get rid of it, why did he insist that the younger brother did it?
A: Because the plot needs to set suspense, let the younger brother and the audience think that the elder brother is a bad guy first, and the uncle has to hide it, so we have to ignore the IQ of the elder brother and the audience.

Q: Since the eldest brother asked the younger brother for the "Moonlight Treasure Box", why did the uncle stop him? Because according to the uncle's first-hand plan, the younger brother is going to escape in the future, so why let him carry this important prop? Why not let the big brother hold it, and the uncle can get the treasure at any time without sending an assassination team.
A: The protagonist does not have important props, and the villain does not send an assassination team, the story will not look good. Also let the younger brother and the audience mistakenly think that the uncle is a good person. But it's really not worth it for my uncle.

Q: ...
A: I'm bored.
