Chapter 126: Theft
The door of the villa shows signs of being pried open.
The people who live here, Zhou Ming, Li Youruo sisters and Zhou Zhixing, all have keys, and if they forget to bring the key, they will definitely call other people, and they will definitely not pry the door.
Zhou Ming's face sank, and he helped Lin Chengyuan to quickly step into the villa.
Sure enough, as Zhou Ming expected, there were traces of being turned over in the villa, but the movement was not big, and some things were put back, obviously not ordinary thieves, but for a specific target.
Li Youruo's room, the guest rooms have all been turned over, and Zhou Ming's room is the most important thing, and he is taken care of, and the other party is coming for him.
There were several treasures in the villa, Zhou Ming's face changed slightly, and he immediately counted them.
There are only four bottles of rejuvenation water left, and there are not many blood chalcedony, these two things do not occupy much space, Zhou Ming is with him, and the rejuvenation tree is planted in a flower pot by Zhou Ming at will, which has no effect, just to facilitate placement.
It's okay this time, as for the jade pith hidden well, it is also safe and sound, and the Guanyin statue is placed in place, and there is no sign of passing.
The rest ......
Zhou Ming's expression changed, and he returned to the living room as quickly as possible, Lin Chengyuan was lying on the sofa and falling asleep, Zhou Ming's eyes fell on the place where the safe was placed, and his face suddenly looked ugly.
The traces of obvious passivity were verified by Zhou Ming when he opened the cabinet door and opened the safe.
The Soul Stone, the Purification Stone, and the Amethyst Spiritual Liquid placed inside were all gone, and the safe was empty.
"I really don't know whether to live or die." A cold glint flashed in Zhou Ming's eyes, and he sneered.
There is no doubt that someone took advantage of his absence to steal in the villa, and the purpose was quite clear, that is, to come at the treasure in his hand.
This person who made the shot, his investigation of Zhou Ming was really meticulous, and he knew that Li Youruo and the others were not there, as long as Zhou Ming went out, there would be room for the crime. And I knew the rumors that the villa was haunted, so I deliberately chose to come over during the day.
Ordinary people can't be so meticulous, and the other party is not small.
Everything has been lost. It was useless to be anxious, but Zhou Ming quickly calmed down.
The rejuvenating tree has not been lost, and the chalcedony and Guanyin statue have not been lost, what does this mean? The other party is not like Zhou Ming at all. Knowing that they are natural treasures, otherwise they will not let go of the Huiqing tree, the chalcedony and the Guanyin statue.
The reason why he took away the Soul Stone, the Purification Stone and the Amethyst Spiritual Liquid was probably because Zhou Ming hid them in the safe, otherwise he would not have taken away even the inconspicuous Soul Stone, after all, the Purification Stone was as pure as the sky. It's easy to see that it's extraordinary, and the Soul Stone is not at all remarkable.
What Zhou Ming is most worried about is to meet someone like himself who can recognize the treasures of heaven and earth, since the other party doesn't recognize it, he doesn't have to care too much, at least on the earth, he is still unique.
"Took my stuff. Do you think you can escape? Zhou Ming smiled coldly.
Take out your phone. Zhou Ming made a call to Xie Yaxue first.
"Yaxue, is there anything unusual in the auction house today?" As soon as the phone was connected, Zhou Ming immediately asked.
"Anomalous? No, it's about the same as usual, is something wrong? Xie Yaxue was stunned for a moment, then reacted and asked.
"Nothing. A little surprise. Zhou Ming smiled and comforted Xie Yaxue. I hung up the phone.
There is no abnormality in the auction house, which means that the other party is also clear. It was impossible for him to put valuables in the auction house, which made Zhou Ming breathe a sigh of relief.
Zhou Ming knew that because he kept taking out unprecedented rare treasures such as Huiqing Water and Blood Chalcedony, many people were red-eyed, and some people would definitely suspect that there were more rare treasures around him.
The other party should not be from Mingzhu City, otherwise he would definitely be afraid of the Li family.
After thinking about it, Zhou Ming walked out of the villa and arrived at a nearby villa, and before he could knock on the door, the door was opened from the inside, and a black-clothed bodyguard stood at the door.
"Zhou Shao, what do you command?" The black-clad bodyguard was respectful.
The nearby villa has long been bought by Li Tiancheng, and there are people arranged by the Li family to move in, in order to protect the Li Youruo sisters, at this time Li Youruo sisters do not live in the villa, there are not many people here, only a few people stay here.
"Who has been to my villa since I went out this morning?" Zhou Ming asked.
Hearing this, the black-clothed bodyguard was a little puzzled, thought about it, and replied, "Only your brother has ever gone in, around ten o'clock in the morning." ”
"The trip." Zhou Ming's brows furrowed.
"How long has he been there?"
"About an hour."
"My brother, what's unusual?"
"Uh" the black-clothed bodyguard recalled carefully: "He has a scarf around his face, and only half of his face is exposed, I don't know if it's an anomaly." ”
Zhou Ming nodded, his expression slightly cold.
He understood.
Zhou Ming can be sure that it was definitely not his younger brother Zhou Zhixing who entered the villa, but someone should have pretended to be.
It's nearly a month, the weather is already very cold, and it is normal to go out to wrap a scarf, plus these bodyguards of the Li family are not familiar with Zhou Zhixing, so they don't think much about it.
The other party did not pretend to be the Li sisters and Zhou Ming, who were very familiar to the bodyguards, but chose Zhou Zhixing, who had not come to the villa many times, and acted not cautiously and carefully.
"I see." Leaving the villa, Zhou Ming dialed Zhou Zhixing's mobile phone.
After having money, Zhou Ming bought his younger brother the latest mobile phones, laptops, etc., if he wasn't afraid that Zhou Zhixing would develop the habit of spending lavishly, he would have given him a lot of pocket money.
His parents died early, and Zhou Zhixing followed Zhou Ming to live a poor life since he was a child, which also made Zhou Ming feel quite guilty about him, and he wanted to compensate his younger brother wholeheartedly.
"You'd better not beat my brother's idea, otherwise, I'll make you regret it for the rest of your life." A terrifying murderous intent flashed in Zhou Ming's eyes.
"Brother?" Zhou Zhixing's voice came from the other end of the phone, which also calmed Zhou Ming's mood.
"It's nothing, just a phone call to ask about your situation, well, take the exam." Zhou Ming maintained a calm tone and talked to Zhou Zhixing for a while.
Hung up the phone, the killing intent in Zhou Ming's eyes was a little more restrained, the other party still knew the measure, he really dared to move the people he cared about, he didn't mind killing, don't try to stop him with any rules.
Back at the villa, Zhou Ming dialed Li Tiancheng's mobile phone again.
"Uncle Li, I want to ask you for help."
Pinching the phone in his hand, Li Tiancheng groaned, what Zhou Ming asked him to help with was really a lot of movement.
Carry out a carpet search of Pearl City, and the bigger the movement, the better.
Even if the Li family is the head snake of Mingzhu City, it is quite difficult to do this, after all, Mingzhu City is the provincial capital, which has attracted a lot of attention at home and abroad, and there are also constraints from the Fang family.
Li Tiancheng was weighing.
He is very optimistic about Zhou Ming, after coming out of the blood chalcedony, Li Tiancheng believes that Zhou Ming's future is vast, he has self-knowledge, and knows that the foundation of the Li family is in Mingzhu City.
In Linhai Province, the potential for ascent is very limited, coupled with the good relationship with Zhou Ming and Zhou Ming's kindness to Li Youruo, so he has never had the idea of plotting against the heavenly treasures in Zhou Ming's hands, and just wants to befriend Zhou Ming, so that after the latter rises, the Li family can also take advantage of the situation.
He believes that although he is the most suitable candidate, if it is not for a good relationship with Zhou Ming, these fifty bottles of returning to Qingshui may not all fall into his hands.
This is the benefit of cooperating with Zhou Ming.
Li Tiancheng's support for Zhou Ming is constantly increasing, which can be seen from forcing the secretary of the Mingzhu Municipal Party Committee to bow his head, and it is no longer the same as before, wanting to see Zhou Ming's development potential.
Today's Zhou Ming has gradually shown his strength, and if he looks at it with pride, he will miss the best opportunity to make friends with Zhou Ming.
In Li Tiancheng's eyes, he naturally would not do such a thing.
"Okay." There were thousands of clues, and he only stayed in Li Tiancheng's mind for a few seconds, and he was driven away by a firm thought.
"I'm very optimistic about you, don't let me down, Zhou Ming." After hanging up the phone, Li Tianchang breathed a sigh of relief, and then cheered up and called Zhuang Cheng in.
"There's something, you go and do it......"
"It's finished." Zhou Ming's face was overjoyed.
Li Tiancheng agreed very simply, which also made him feel a little grateful, speaking of which, Li Tiancheng had nothing to say about his support, Zhou Ming could naturally guess the other party's purpose, but this itself is nothing, how can there be love for no reason in the world, Li Tiancheng is not his parents, Zhou Ming is already very grateful for being able to do this.
"It's one o'clock in the afternoon, and the other party is a villa that entered at ten o'clock, and left at eleven o'clock, just less than two hours, and it is unlikely that he will leave Pearl City." Zhou Ming muttered.
You must know that he is not a suburb here, unless the other party wants to make a big move and attract the attention of others, according to the normal process, he may not be able to get out of Mingzhu City at this time.
What Zhou Ming wanted Li Tiancheng to do was to make a big move in Mingzhu City, so that the thieves would not dare to stay in Mingzhu City.
As long as he leaves Pearl City, there are only two directions to go.
Today's natal land, after continuous expansion, has invaded the territory of Pearl City, although it is still far from Pearl City, but a peripheral county has been swept away.
If you flee in the direction of the natal land, Zhou Ming is the most welcome, as long as you sweep with the eye of the sky, you can find the location of the other party.
If you flee in another direction, it will also reduce the scope of Zhou Ming's search, you must know that the Purification Stone and the Amethyst Spiritual Liquid are put together, and the two Heavenly Materials and Earth Treasures themselves are mutually reinforcing, and they are always in a state of being activated, which is far easier to sense than ordinary Heavenly Materials and Earth Treasures.
Of course, if the thief goes the opposite way and stays in Mingzhu City, Zhou Ming is not afraid, at most he is just catching a turtle in an urn, with the movement of the Li family, he will definitely not dare to transfer, and the other party will never think that he can sense the treasure of heaven and earth.
Looking at the time, the Li family should have already acted, Zhou Ming walked over and woke Lin Chengyuan up.
"Zhou Ming?" Lin Chengyuan was still a little confused, and his head was a little painful.
"Let's go, go out with me to drive and breathe." Zhou Ming patted Lin Chengyuan's shoulder and said with a light smile.
