Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Museum of the Future

It's 4 PM Beijing time.

It's 4 a.m. in the United Kingdom.

The streets were still deserted, and the only things in the huge square were white pigeons flying around and a homeless man sleeping gracefully in a corner.

Gu Zuozuo walked lightly, passing by shops that were not yet open.

[Host...are you planning to continue raiding my property?]

Gu Zuozuo almost tripped over her own feet, and her face turned black.

Am I that kind of person?

What do they take her for? How could she possibly empty a city after just one trip? She's not a robber!

Yes, it is you!

The system nodded confidently, emphasizing honesty and not lying.

Gu Zuozuo...

An hour later.

At the entrance of the Eagle Kingdom Museum.

Gu Zuozuo stroked her chin, looking at the magnificent gate in front of her, while listening to the system in her mind frantically reporting how many treasures were inside.

"Host, so many treasures..."

The system almost drooled.

The screen was filled with all sorts of exquisite, grand, and ingenious cultural relics—treasures left by our ancestors!

Even a single paper book can fetch an astronomical price in the Starfield. If these cloisonné enamelwares, porcelain, and bronze artifacts were taken to the Starfield, they would probably be able to roam freely throughout the entire realm.

Gu Zuozuo was unaware of the system's daydream at the moment; she was looking around at her surroundings.

This isn't some desolate island nation; there are plenty of strong people here. Look at the defenses; it's not easy for an ordinary person to get in.

The familiar mask once again covered her beautiful face, revealing to the public the image of a wanted criminal plastered all over the streets and alleys of the island nation.

With a slight smile, Gu Zuozuo's figure vanished from the spot in the next instant.

The drunkard who had just woken up in the corner rubbed his eyes in disbelief, slapped himself in the face with a loud slap, and after a long while, muttered to himself.

"Oh God, I'm still not awake!"

After saying that, he closed his eyes, lay down, and went to sleep.

With light footsteps, Gu Zuozuo looked down at the cultural relics protected in glass below. Her slender white fingers brushed over the carved dragons and painted beams cut open beside her, and she seemed to hear mournful cries in her ears.

"Good children, I'll take you home."

Their forms vanished into shadows at a speed invisible to the naked eye, one by one, artifacts representing the history of China disappeared from this cold, impersonal museum.

In just half an hour, the entire museum became completely empty, with not a single hair to be seen.

[Host! There are many more in the basement!]

Gu Zuozuo certainly knew more than just what was on the surface.

"Sir, is there any way to open it?"

Time was running out; it would be six o'clock soon, and there was still an hour before the people checking things before the door opened. She had to take everything with her before they arrived.

Okay, please wait twenty seconds.

Even in those twenty seconds, it was because it couldn't leave the space and could only be remotely controlled, which was a crude smart lock.

Click~

In less than fifteen seconds, the heavy door was opened.

[Host, I have not failed you!]

The system proudly waved its tentacles, saying, "I knew it! This thing, which can't even be considered intelligent, is child's play in front of me. How could I possibly not be able to handle it?"

"well done!"

After entering, Gu Zuozuo scanned everything without thinking, then ran away. Before leaving, she accidentally left behind a Japanese ID card, and the photo on it looked remarkably similar to her fake face.
