Chapter 333: The Thief (I)

After two turns, the lock was opened with a very soft sound. Xu Yuan pushed it gently, and the door of the study was pushed open, revealing the dark room inside. Xu Yuan inadvertently looked back at the camera on the ceiling again, as if an eye was staring at him with malicious intentions, which made Xu Yuan's heart feel a little cold, and then seemed to have decided something, stepped into the study, and gently closed the door.

The hallway was back to its previous state, as if no one had ever been there, no sound, no light, but the monitor had recorded everything, the only evidence that someone had ever entered the study.

Xu Yuan leaned against the door and gasped, although he had already entered the study, but the experience just now was the first time Xu Yuan encountered it in his life, and he pretended to be very calm on the surface, but he was nervous to death in his heart, Xu Yuan didn't know how determined he was to choose to open the door and come in directly, so now he relaxed all of a sudden, so that Xu Yuan had a feeling of the rest of his life, which was simply a challenge to himself, for how to explain this matter tomorrow, Xu Yuan has not thought about it yet, Now there is no time or mood for her to think about such a question.

Wiping the cold sweat on her head, Xu Yuan eased up a little, since she had already chosen to come in, then at least she had to get what she wanted, so that it would not be in vain. So Xu Yuan gently turned on the flashlight and walked into the study, Xu Yuan couldn't turn on the light, because if the light was turned on, it would definitely be seen by the patrolling guards, in that case, it would probably be exposed, and using the flashlight was only a temporary trade-off, and there was not much time left for Xu Yuan, so Xu Yuan had to find it quickly before it was discovered.

Xu Yuan remembered that Qiao Feng's desk should be directly in front of her, with a sofa on the left, a bookshelf on the right, and a safe and a small bookcase behind the desk. The books on the shelves should be collectible, that is to say, the things you are looking for are likely to be in the safe, bookcase, and desk, if it is in the safe, then Xu Yuan feels that she has little hope, the safe is a password lock, there is no key to open, and it is obviously impossible for him to know the password of the Dao, even if he guesses, he has no clue at all, and the only person who can know the password of the Dao should be Uncle Zhong except Qiao Feng, Now Xu Yuan can only bless what she is looking for from being put in the safe by Qiao Feng.

Xu Yuan quietly came to Qiao Feng's bookcase, planning to start looking for the bookcase behind the desk first, but fortunately, the study was covered with carpets, so that she would not make a sound when she walked. I gently opened the bookcase and shone it in with a flashlight, there were not many books in the bookcase, there were some picture frames, certificates, or very fine sculptures or something, presumably something for an exhibition, some honorary certificate or something like a friendly giveaway. Xu Yuan found the bottom layer from the top layer all the way, and found nothing valuable, let alone anything Xu Yuan hoped to find. In desperation, Xu Yuan had no choice but to close the cabinet door again, it seemed that there was nothing left in the bookcase, so only the desk remained.

Just when Xu Yuan was ready to check the desk, he suddenly felt some bright light shining in from the window, Xu Yuan was startled, and quickly hid behind the curtains, turned his head sideways and cautiously leaned against the window to see what the situation was. Then there was some dim light outside, Xu Yuan saw two white beams of light similar to flashlights dangling not far away, and vaguely saw two figures, remembering that the guards began to patrol at this time, and finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, it should not be that he was discovered. But I also feel a little tricky, after these guards patrol the outside, they should patrol to the inside of the main building, and if they can't go back, they will definitely be exposed, because the doors of their bedrooms and this study are not locked, once the guards twist the doorknob to check, they will definitely find the problem, so they must find things before the guards check the interior and take the things back.

There was still a desk left, Xu Yuan simply calculated the time, although it was a little urgent, but it should be enough time, and he needed to hurry up a little. Coming to the desk, Xu Yuan checked the desktop first, the only few pieces of paper on it seemed to be some paper without any information, a few drawers on the left side of the desk, Xu Yuan also opened them in turn, which looked like documents, but they were all stacked together, and I couldn't tell which one was which, Xu Yuan had to shine with a flashlight with one hand, and quickly flip through each piece of paper with the other hand, just check one by one. After turning through for a long time, all I got were some contracts and materials, and there was no question about Zhang Ziyu, and there seemed to be no gain after working for a long time, but it took a long time, and there was not much time left.

Xu Yuan used a flashlight to probe back and forth around the desk to see if there was a place where he fell, and unexpectedly found that there was a long drawer in front of the desk, but because the drawer was still some distance from the outermost edge of the desk, so if you didn't lower your head, there was no way to find it, it seems that this drawer was designed like this because you don't want others to see it easily, the more this is the more it means that there must be something in such a drawer that you don't want others to see, Xu Yuan suddenly had a premonition, The things you are looking for are in this drawer, and you can quickly find them and take them out to go back, so that you should be able to go back to your bedroom before the guards check them.

After making up her mind, Xu Yuan reached out to the mysterious drawer, intending to take a good look after opening it, but unlike the other drawers opened before, Xu Yuan's first time was not opened. Strange, stuck? Zhang Ziyu put the flashlight on the table, and pulled the drawer out with both hands, but except for making the drawer make a little sound, the drawer did not move. This is clearly not stuck, but locked. I didn't expect this drawer to be locked by Qiao Feng, it seems that Qiao Feng is also cautious, the more this happens, the more it shows that the things in this drawer are not ordinary, but these are not important, because if you can't open it, all your efforts will be in vain.

Xu Yuan was a little in a hurry at this time, and Qiao Feng locked this most important drawer in addition to the safe. What should I do now, Xu Yuan stood there blankly, a little at a loss, should I hurry back now? So wouldn't such a trip come in vain, I didn't get anything after the end, or I didn't know anything, and I would be dealt with by Qiao Feng in vain tomorrow. But why don't you go back? Now there is no way to open this drawer immediately, because she doesn't even know where the key is, and seeing that those guards should start checking, what to do, Xu Yuan began to hesitate, but there should be little time left for her.

"You said that Lao Wang, this person, asked for leave today to let me inspect for him, damn, he is really lazy, or the house is warmer, and the outside is simply not fucking treated."

"You be quiet, don't wake people up, hurry up and check it back, you'll have the most troubles."

Xu Yuan suddenly heard the voices of two men talking faintly outside, no, have the guards already come in and started checking? How could it be so fast? If you go out now, you will definitely install them, at that time, there was no way to explain it, so you can only hide it first, Xu Yuan quickly turned off the flashlight and hid behind the desk, so that if you look at it from the door, you won't see her, but if you walk in, then you will definitely find out, and Xu Yuan can only gamble now.

Click. The sound of the doorknob being twisted sounded, and the air seemed to be condensed, and Xu Yuan covered her mouth with her hand, afraid that she would make a sound and be heard.

"Huh? I don't think it's locked. The door opened, and one of the guards said with some discrepancy, as if for the first time he had discovered whether there was a locked room or not.

"How so? Alas? Really, this should be Mr. Kaede's study, right? Another guard also poked his head over and asked.

Was it still discovered? Xu Yuan, who was hiding behind her desk, thought so.

"I guess I forgot to lock it, right? It is estimated that Mr. Kaede forgot about it when he slept late. A man said as he kept looking into the study with a flashlight to see if there was anything wrong.

"Hey, do you need to go in and see what's wrong?" One patted the other on the shoulder and asked.

"What do you go in, Mr. Feng's study is full of carpets, what should I do if I step on dirty? Besides, I must have forgotten it, there can still be thieves in the Feng Mansion, let's go, hurry up and go back after the inspection, it just so happens that I still have some wine in the house, let's warm up. The other said impatiently.

"Is it really okay?" Hearing what his companion said, the guard was also a little tempted and asked.

"It's not the first day you've come to Fengfu, hey, it's really troublesome." The other grabbed the guard and closed it along with the door.

The study was filled with darkness again, only the light from the windows came in, and the voices of the two guards faded away, and it looked like they were going back to drinking.

Xu Yuan has been sitting here stiffly, as if he has not come back to his senses, until the guard left for a long time, Xu Yuan took his hand away from his mouth, gasped for breath, just now his heart was almost jumping out, fortunately the guard did not come in to check, he finally escaped. Xu Yuan felt that her back was already wet with cold sweat, and her feet were a little numb, after all, she had maintained a posture for so long. Holding on to the edge of the desk, he stood up with difficulty, and accidentally touched a sound similar to a box, Xu Yuan turned on the flashlight and shone it, and found that it was a small transparent box on the desk, with a few pens inserted in it, and a metal piece-like thing, Xu Yuan took a closer look and found that it was a silver key.

Is this the key? Xu Yuan became excited, took the key out of the small box, and then couldn't wait to insert the key into the keyhole of the drawer, only to find that it was a match, turned it slightly, and then pulled it, and the drawer was opened.
