Tang Yue, pulling Dongfang Yi along, darted towards the building behind the museum. In Moscow, the night grew even deeper, and a tense atmosphere permeated the streets.

The reason is simple: more people have learned about what happened in the East Suburbs building. All departments are now mobilized. Security is increased everywhere, and the entire city is on high alert.

The two arrived at the building silently. Tang Yue sensed the situation even before they reached the location; the security was even tighter than at the auction.

Armed soldiers patrolled the area around the building, their searchlights sweeping across every corner.

Tang Yue merely curled the corners of her lips slightly, leading Dongfang Yi into the building as if no one else was there. Each time they teleported, the speed was so fast that Dongfang Yi always felt as if she had been inside in the blink of an eye.

How to put it... Dongfangyi feels that he doesn't know if God can do it, but Guanyin Bodhisattva and the like can definitely do it.

The two went up the stairs to the second floor, where all the studio doors were open. Perhaps to facilitate communication between rooms or to exchange tools, they didn't have the habit of closing the doors to save time.

Tang Yue and Dongfang Yi stood at the entrance of a studio, where several cultural relics experts were focused on cleaning and restoring the artifacts.

The neatly arranged shelves are filled with all kinds of objects, including exquisite ceramics, simple bronzes, and finely carved jade.

Tang Yue immediately recognized that all these artifacts originated from China. It seemed that only a small portion would be auctioned tonight. Furthermore, there was likely more than one route used to transport the artifacts. These artifacts were significantly more numerous than those brought by General Igorevich, who had accompanied her.

She chuckled softly, and Dongfang Yi didn't know what Tang Yue's inexplicable smile meant. However, with a gentle wave of her hand, Tang Yue stored all the artifacts being cleaned in the studio and those displayed on the shelves into her spatial storage.

An expert is intently cleaning a ceramic vase from the Song Dynasty of China with special tools. After wiping away the dirt, he is captivated by the delicate touch and exquisite patterns.

However, just as he gently wiped the neck of the vase, the vase in his hand suddenly disappeared, and his hand fell into thin air, dropping downwards.

"What... what's going on?" The expert stared wide-eyed, his face full of disbelief. He frantically groped around on the workbench, as if the vase would suddenly reappear.

Meanwhile, other cultural relics experts encountered the same situation. One expert, who was restoring a Chinese bronze artifact, watched helplessly as the small brush he was using to clean it disappeared along with the bronze artifact, his eyes nearly popping out of his head in shock.

"My God!" he exclaimed, his voice filled with fear.

The entire studio erupted into chaos. The cultural relics experts exchanged bewildered glances, their eyes filled with terror. For when they looked up, the studio was utterly empty.

How could cultural relics simply disappear into thin air?

"Oh? Could it be haunted? I heard that China has a lot of those things, and they're very powerful." Various speculations and exclamations arose one after another.

The experts' exclamations drew the attention of the building's security personnel, who rushed over but were also at a loss for what to do about the scene before them.

This situation is strikingly similar to what happens when things are stolen in other cities. No, it's exactly the same. Clearly, this was done by a gang. There's no mistake.

Damn Japan, they actually brought this terrifying guy to their country, Russia.

Just as everyone was in a panic, an elderly cultural relics expert suddenly turned pale and said in a trembling voice, "The museum... Go and notify the museum quickly. They have even more Chinese cultural relics in their collection, and they might suffer the same fate!"

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately realized the seriousness of the situation and rushed towards the museum.

Having finished "cleaning" the building, Tang Yue didn't linger and headed straight for the museum. Dongfang Yi was left at the entrance.

The museum's exterior was magnificent, its heavy doors tightly shut, as if guarding the treasures within. Tang Yue slipped inside.

Upon entering the museum, Tang Yue was stunned by the sight before her. Just how many treasures had those damned Russians taken from China? Even without detailed examination, the very shape of these artifacts was enough to tell that they were all products of China.

Thinking about this, Tang Yue became uneasy. She remembered the treasures the Japanese had tried to take from China back in Daobei Village. Clearly, this wasn't the first time they'd done something like that. Tang Yue sighed, "Sigh, how come there are so many?"

They were all taken away by other countries. How could she be so idle? Why did she have to see these things? If she didn't know, she wouldn't think about them; if she didn't think about them, she wouldn't feel responsible.

Given the current situation, they still needed to keep trying to salvage what they could. Thinking this way, Tang Yue felt even more pressed for time. So what was the point of looking around? The best course of action was to quickly pack everything up. Thus, by the time the experts arrived with their security team, Tang Yue had already finished cleaning the museum.

Dongfang Yi stood at the main entrance, watching a group of people rush into the museum in a panic, but he felt nothing. Because, at that moment, he seemed to come to his senses.

Now he seemed to truly realize what kind of existence Tang Yue really was. He could understand why they could enter those heavily guarded places with ease, since they all had talismans on them.

But why did they get in through those tightly closed doors without even opening them?

And another thing, why did those things just disappear into thin air? Dongfang Yi felt like he had discovered a shocking secret. However, he dared not reveal it, fearing that Tang Yue would kill him.
