Chapter 550 The Thief Who Stole the Jade Material



When Jiang Han woke up the next morning, he felt extremely tired.

All last night, he seemed to hear a constant clicking noise in his ears.

It feels like a dream, but not quite.

He planned to ask the housekeeper about it while eating later. When he passed by the shelf where the Bixi jade pieces were placed, he subconsciously glanced at it and then stopped.

Turning his head, Jiang Han looked at the Bixi jade piece on the shelf, as well as the jade materials placed around it. After a while, he couldn't help muttering,

"Did I remember it wrongly?"

Why does it feel like there is a piece of jade missing around the Bixi?

Jiang Han brought back several pieces of jade yesterday and placed them next to the Bixi in different sizes. He couldn't remember exactly how many pieces he had placed.

Without thinking too much, he turned around and went to the bathroom to wash up.

The freshman year curriculum is relatively intensive. Although he has been living at home these days, he cannot miss the classes.

After changing clothes and hurried downstairs and having breakfast, Jiang Han went straight to school.

Before going to bed at night, he thought of what Jiang Xuxu said about the jade material becoming dull after absorbing spiritual energy, and he made a special effort to observe it.

After finding that every piece of jade was the same as the ones he had obtained before, Jiang Han went to bed with peace of mind.

When he woke up on the third day, he obviously found something wrong.

The jade material he placed around the Bixi was missing.

Because he had made a special observation before going to bed last night, Jiang Han was extremely sure and certain that this time it was not his illusion, there was really a piece of jade missing!

His first reaction was—

"A thief?"

But thinking about it, it seems unlikely.

Not to mention the Jiang family's security level, an ordinary thief would be caught if he couldn't even reach the Jiang family's wall, let alone get into the house.

That's the mole.

But all the bodyguards at home were carefully selected, so it is impossible for them to do such a thing.

Even if there really was someone with dirty hands, why would he steal a piece of jade from my grandfather when there are so many antiques and treasures in his collection room?

And the Bixi ornament is right next to it. Isn't it more expensive than those uncarved jade materials?

However, it is also possible that the other party felt that the jade materials in his house were insignificant and numerous, and it would probably not be noticed if one or two pieces were missing.

Unfortunately...that person guessed wrong!

Jiang Han sneered in his heart and decided to meet this thief.

He first went out as if nothing had happened and checked the surveillance footage from last night.

According to his guess, if there really was a thief in the house, it could only have happened between last night and this morning.

Unfortunately, the result disappointed him greatly.

The surveillance did not capture any suspicious persons entering his room.

Jiang Han suspected that the surveillance video had been tampered with.

Instead of hanging on to the surveillance camera, Jiang Han simply turned around and walked out. When he came back, he had a small camera in his hand.

After placing the camera in a hidden place facing the shelf, Jiang Han turned on the abnormal recording mode and fell asleep peacefully.

Although he felt that even if there really was a thief in the house, he would not steal from him three times in a row.

After all, there is a high risk of being caught when breaking into his house to steal things.

However, it turned out that he had underestimated the boldness of the "thief"!

When he woke up the next day, the first thing he did was to check the amount of jade materials on the shelf.

It turned out that there was another piece missing!

Jiang Han's face darkened and he quickly opened his phone to check the surveillance video.

When I turned on my phone, the surveillance footage from last night was completely dark, as if it had been interfered with, and nothing was captured.

Jiang Han's heart sank instantly.

He didn't suspect that the camera was malfunctioning, he just felt that something was not right.

Thanks to having a cousin who is into metaphysics, Jiang Han now has some knowledge about the supernatural.

Not to mention the distant past, when Jiang Xuxu was recording a program and encountered a weasel in the mountains, it was said that the live broadcast signal was suddenly interrupted by interference.

His current situation is so similar to her situation back then.

When Jiang Han thought of this possibility, he suddenly didn't dare to stay in this room any longer.

He did not forget that Lu Xuexi had stuffed the doll's bloody clothes into the compartment at the head of his bed.

In this situation, who knows if Lu Xuexi has stuffed some strange things in his room.

Thinking of this possibility, Jiang Han went to find Jiang Xuxu without hesitation.

Soon, Jiang Xuxu was caught at the entrance on the first floor when he was about to go out.

Jiang Xuxu stood at the entrance, listening to him talk solemnly about his lost jade material and the camera that lost signal, but his face was very calm, and he only asked,

"You suspect there is something unclean in your house, so did the jade talisman I gave you react?"

After being reminded by her, Jiang Han hurriedly pulled out the protective jade token tied with a red rope from his chest.

The jade plaque is crystal clear and clean, just as before.

"It didn't respond."

Not only now, but even in these few nights, he didn't notice anything wrong with the jade token.

You know, he always wears this jade pendant when he sleeps, except for taking it off occasionally when taking a bath.

Since this jade token has no reaction, that means,

"Did I miss something?"

Jiang Han frowned and for a moment he actually doubted himself.

Jiang Xuxu glanced at him, and suddenly narrowed her eyes, "That's not necessarily true."

Seeing him looking at her, she continued in a calm voice,

"Besides ghosts and monsters, it could be something else."

Jiang Xuxu asked about the details carefully and had a vague guess in his mind.

Without telling Jiang Han, Jiang Xuxu only said,

"If it comes back to steal the jade at night as you said, then we should just wait together tonight."

Jiang Han was relieved when he heard her words implying that she was willing to take care of the matter, but he quickly reacted.
