Xiao Shan was about to go to her room to change her clothes when Lu Yuan grabbed her arm.
"What's wrong? You seem a bit off. Did something happen?"
Seeing Lu Yuan's nervous expression, Xiao Shan couldn't help but ask a question.
Lu Yuan shook his head, put his index finger to his lips in a shushing gesture, and then pointed in the direction of the room.
"Do you feel like someone has been in our house?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Shan's face immediately showed a look of astonishment, and she subconsciously moved closer to Lu Yuan in a tense manner.
Then he glanced into the house.
Sure enough, although the room looked fairly tidy, the placement of many items was quite different from before.
"Are you saying someone broke into our house, or that our house was burgled?"
Lu Yuan shook his head slightly, then pointed to the small bedroom.
Then Lu Yuan gently patted Xiao Shan on the shoulder, signaling it to hide in a safe place. Then Lu Yuan casually took out a gun from his pocket and slowly moved towards the room. When he arrived at the room, Lu Yuan kicked the door open forcefully.
Then a noise came from inside, as if someone knew what he was doing but hadn't noticed.
Lu Yuan has already discovered his whereabouts.
The room was a mess, with rummaged-through items scattered all over the floor.
Lu Yuan frowned and shouted loudly inside.
"Get out here!"
Then the wardrobe door slowly opened.
Then a person raised his hands high, his face filled with terror, and knelt down with a thud, pleading in a low voice.
"Mr. Lu, you must save me! Don't shoot! Don't shoot!"
Upon hearing the other person call out his surname, Lu Yuan's face showed a serious expression.
This person definitely knows me, but why would he come to my house and search for things?
He didn't look like an exile, because his clothes weren't particularly worn.
However, several whip marks made Lu Yuan realize that this person had likely been tortured.
"Come here and talk to me!"
Lu Yuan pointed the gun at the other party, then pointed towards the living room.
The other person slowly got up, still keeping their hands raised, and slowly walked towards the room.
Xiao Shan was so frightened by everything that had happened that she was speechless. She covered her mouth in shock and took out the pistol from the hidden compartment.
Lu Yuan checked the room again and breathed a sigh of relief when he found no one else. When he returned, the person was still standing in the same spot.
"Who are you? What brings you here? Why do you know my name and tell me everything you know?"
The other person swallowed hard before speaking softly.
"Jiang Wenguang sent me to find you. He said he has something very important to tell you!"
Upon hearing the other person mention Jiang Wenguang's name, Lu Yuan knew that the other person was probably involved in this matter.
However, judging from the other person's appearance, they seem to be quite timid. Why would they get involved in this matter?
In Lu Yuan's mind, this matter involved losing one's head. The fact that these desperate criminals were doing this didn't shock Lu Yuan much, but the person in front of him clearly did not meet their requirements.
"Jiang Wenguang? What does he want to tell me? And how do you know about Jiang Wenguang?"
“Jiang Wenguang has been arrested by the military. He is currently imprisoned in a military prison and cannot escape. I was tortured inside, but I escaped from prison. He told me that I must tell you about this, because this matter is of great importance and concerns everyone's survival!”
Upon hearing what the other person said, Lu Yuan immediately frowned.
"What? You're saying you escaped from a military prison? Are you kidding me? That's impossible! Military prisons are much more secure than private prisons. Do you think I'm stupid?"
Seeing that Lu Yuan didn't believe him, the man glanced into the room and immediately pointed to a safe next to him.
The safe was originally intended by Lu Yuan to store some valuables. It was a type of safe that came with the villa, but Lu Yuan didn't use it much.
He likes to keep small amounts of cash in a safe, while for larger sums, Lu Yuan prefers to keep them in his own dimensional space.
Lu Yuan didn't know what the other party wanted to do, so he nodded slightly.
The man approached the safe, casually twisted the switch a few times to indicate that it couldn't be opened, and then, under his control, Lu Yuan witnessed a miraculous scene.
The man pressed his ear against the safe, turned the lock to the bottom, then pulled out a wire-like object from between his teeth, twisted it a few times in the keyhole, and then clicked open the safe door.
The other party took less than a minute to open the safe.
Lu Yuan was utterly stunned. This person's skills, if not the best he had ever seen, were definitely among the top.
Although the lock-picking master he had encountered in the underground fortress had excellent memories, they were not as exaggerated as those of the person in front of him.
The person in front of him opened the safe with ease, which shocked Lu Yuan. Lu Yuan then pointed to the other doors in the room.
"So this is how you got into my villa?"
The other party nodded immediately.
“The military and police forces outside have a changing of the guard schedule. I was able to get in during their shift change, so Mr. Lu, you can believe that I was able to escape from the military prison, right?”
Lu Yuan sighed and nodded slightly.
The other party might really have that kind of strength, but what Lu Yuan was more worried about was why he hadn't brought Jiang Wenguang and the others out of prison.
Then the other party continued.
"What I'm about to say may be beyond your comprehension, but Jiang Wenguang has already said that you will definitely understand it and take action. He hopes you will do something about it immediately!"
After listening, Lu Yuan frowned slightly. Jiang Wenguang wanted him to do something, but what exactly did the other party want to say to him?
However, the moment the other party spoke, Lu Yuan understood that this matter was absolutely a survival issue concerning all of humanity.
