"A thief has entered the warehouse. Search it quickly." Su Yuanzhi ordered loudly.
Now that his hand was broken, he was fixed to the bed and unable to move. He could only ask the housekeeper to search every corner to find out who was so bold as to break into the Su family's territory.
Especially the storehouse, many of the spices inside are over a hundred years old, all of which are rare varieties in the world. The four top spices - agarwood, sandalwood, dragon musk - are all in the room.
If a thief came and stole the Su family's precious perfumes, it would be a heavy blow to him and the Su family.
"Yes, sir—" the butler replied hurriedly.
He immediately divided the men into two teams, one team searched in each yard, and he personally led a team straight to the warehouse.
In the warehouse.
Su Ran stood in the dark room. The smell in the air was too mixed, too chaotic and too strong.
Her nose was itchy and she wanted to sneeze several times.
Hearing the noise outside, the cat lost his patience.
"Master, why are you so stupid? You've been discovered by your cheap father. Now let's see how you escape from the tiger's mouth." It floated beside Su Ran and said sarcastically.
I can't even be a petty thief.
Master, you are a bit stupid——
Once discovered by Su Yuanzhi, wouldn't it be like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth? This would just give him room to maneuver. It would not be impossible for him to take advantage of the situation and seize the bone jade.
Tatata.
The footsteps became heavier and heavier, and the people were getting closer and closer.
The cat was getting very anxious.
"You still have some conscience." He knew he was worried about his master.
Su Ran paced slowly.
Her figure moved in the darkness, like a silent soul, or like an elf drifting among flowers, shrouded in clouds and mist, and unable to be seen clearly.
The cat scurried about.
It wanted to fly away, or cover its eyes to avoid seeing its owner being caught.
With a clang.
The door of the warehouse was pushed open.
Butler Guan led five or six big men and rushed in.
At the same time, with a click, the light in the warehouse was turned on, and a huge incandescent light poured in from above, illuminating the darkness in the room.
Leaving people nowhere to hide.
roar--
A giant gluttonous beast suddenly grew from small to large in the air, like a dream bubble, yet also like reality. It was so terrifying that people dared not look directly into the monster's huge eyes as big as copper bells.
“Ahhhh—”
A series of frightened voices came from the warehouse.
Butler Guan tried to remain calm, but the giant beast suddenly approached him and roared.
A surge of restlessness came from beneath him.
"Just go out, you didn't see anything..."
A charming voice came in my ears.
The group of people who were originally scared to death by the "giant beast" suddenly heard a god-like voice in their ears, as if it came from the top of their heads, rushing straight to their hearts, making them unable to refuse.
"We saw nothing..."
"We saw nothing..."
A group of people were moving slowly outside in a daze and with stiff steps.
After a while, Butler Guan returned to Su Yuanzhi's bedroom.
"Master, I didn't see any thieves, nothing, the warehouse..." He hesitated for a moment.
"What happened to the warehouse?" Su Yuanzhi asked loudly.
Guan Guan replied respectfully, "We didn't see anything. We searched the warehouse inside and out, but we found nothing."
Su Yuanzhi said in disbelief: "Then what are you yelling about?"
His bedroom was very close to the warehouse. Although he couldn't go out to check it out in person, he could still hear the noise clearly. How could he not notice the shouting of a group of people?
"Master, the warehouse is too dark. Maybe we saw something unclean and got scared." Butler Guan was sweating profusely.
He suddenly remembered the "strange phenomenon" he saw in the warehouse.
