After having enough wine and food, the weasel patted his swollen and round belly and burped with satisfaction.
The two roasted chickens were eaten by it. Zhao Jianhua looked at the pile of chicken bones on the table and was dumbfounded. He couldn't help but smacked his lips. He felt that the weasel's stomach was like a bottomless pit.
It was obviously very petite in size, but I don’t know where it was eaten.
Probably because Zhao Jianhua's gaze was too obvious, the weasel glared at him, but he didn't dare to look around.
"Zhizhi——"
The weasel pointed at himself and then at Zhao Jianhua. After making such gestures, Zhao Jianhua actually understood what the weasel meant.
"Wong Tai Sin is saying that the master sent you to come with me?"
The weasel nodded.
"I see."
The Weasel might have been sent by an expert to help, or might have come to supervise, but no matter what, Zhao Jianhua had to go to the British Museum, otherwise there would be no peace.
Zhao Jianhua did not doubt the weasel's ability. Since the master sent it here, he must have had a deeper meaning. With such unpredictable means, it might be able to help him.
"Wong Tai Sin, please wait for a while, I will go to apply for the passport and other procedures."
The weasel signaled Zhao Jianhua to do it quickly. Seeing Zhao Jianhua walking away with his ID card, it was not worried about Zhao Jianhua escaping. He could find him even if he ran to the ends of the earth.
Zhao Jianhua no longer dared to have any small thoughts. After handing in the formalities, he quickly returned home. After all, he had experienced those magical powers before. Even if he ran away, the weasel would come to him.
As night fell, he lay uneasily on the bed. After the torture of the past few days, he already had a shadow on sleeping.
Even though his body was on the verge of collapse, he didn't dare to sleep anymore, for fear that he would be chased by bones and tigers as soon as he closed his eyes.
At this time, Zhao Jianhua's eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and he couldn't help but start a fight, but thinking of the scenes in his dream, he became sober again.
Subconsciously he glanced at the weasel next to him, who was sleeping soundly with his mouth smashed. Zhao Jianhua cautiously shouted: "Wong Tai Sin?"
The weasel opened his ghostly beast eyes, with a bit of displeasure at being disturbed, "Zhizhizhizhi!"
Seeing that the weasel was a little angry, Zhao Jianhua quickly explained:
"I don't mean to disturb you, Daxian. I just want to ask you that I won't have any more nightmares tonight. Daxian, can you please help me? If this continues, my body will not be able to bear it. Then I don’t have the energy to carry out my mission anymore.”
The weasel waved its paw impatiently, then turned around, revealing its big fluffy tail.
Zhao Jianhua was a little confused about what this meant. He didn't know whether Weasel agreed or not, but he didn't dare to disturb him anymore.
I was so nervous that I didn't know when I fell asleep. I had a dreamless night and it was calm.
Zhao Jianhua finally no longer has to suffer from nightmares. If it weren't for the squeaking sound in his ears, he might have been able to sleep until night.
There was some itching on his cheeks, and something seemed to be floating around. Zhao Jianhua was sleepy. When he opened his eyes, he saw a furry face and screamed in fright!
"ah!"
The yellow shadow was also startled by his cry, and its big eyes glared angrily. Only then did Zhao Jianhua realize that there was an extra weasel in his house.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"
Although I don't know what it means, judging from the look on the weasel's face, it should be quite dirty.
It had been a long time since he had such a good sleep, and he enjoyed the long-lost peace. Zhao Jianhua couldn't help but feel elated, "Don't be angry, Immortal. I'll prepare some roast chicken for you right now."
The weasel nodded with satisfaction, and the two sides passed peacefully for a while.
During the passport processing period, Zhao Jianhua was not idle. He had been studying roadmaps such as the British Museum and formulating a perfect plan.
After applying for the passport, Zhao Jianhua immediately bought the nearest flight and prepared to go to Country Y.
The only problem is how the weasel follows the past.
"How about I get your pet checked in, Daxian, and when we get there—"
Hearing this, the weasel's eyes were dark, and he showed his sharp claws and made several fierce gestures in the air.
Zhao Jianhua quickly apologized, "Don't be angry, Immortal. Of course I know that you are not a pet, and I don't dare to treat you as a pet. I am just following the authority in urgent matters."
Weasel pointed at Zhao Jianhua's backpack.
After this period of getting along with each other, Zhao Jianhua was able to understand what the weasel probably meant by even guessing.
"You want to go into my backpack?"
He shook his head quickly, "That's not possible. The security check at the airport is not just for show. You will definitely be found out and it will be very troublesome."
The weasel still persisted and shook his big fluffy tail, looking confident.
Zhao Jianhua touched his chin, remembering that the weasel had followed him all the way from the mountains to his home without anyone noticing. Maybe it could really do something.
Moreover, the expert had said before that the talisman paper would help him at critical moments, and he should be able to deceive the security check.
After packing everything, one person and one weasel also came to the airport.
When he arrived at the security checkpoint, Zhao Jianhua subconsciously touched his backpack. He didn't know if it was because of a guilty conscience, but he always felt like someone was watching him.
The black backpack looks ordinary, but who would have thought that there is a weasel inside.
What should I do if I get checked out at the airport? How should he explain it?
Zhao Jianhua couldn't help but think wildly, but he was afraid of whatever he wanted.
"There seems to be something in this backpack. Open it and take a look."
Hearing the staff's words, Zhao Jianhua's heart was completely in his throat, and he even dared not turn around, crazily organizing words in his mind.
"that--"
He cleared his throat and was about to speak when a simple and honest male voice came from behind him.
"OK."
Zhao Jianhua turned around and saw another man opening his brown bag and taking out everything inside.
The staff picked out several items and said, "This and this are not compliant and are not allowed on the plane."
It turns out I wasn’t talking about myself.
Zhao Jianhua couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He stood there for too long and had affected the people behind him. The staff couldn't help but remind him: "Mr., you can leave."
Zhao Jianhua quickly picked up his backpack, hurried to the waiting room, found a remote corner, unzipped the backpack, and a furry little head poked out of the bag.
The weasel looked at the surrounding environment, its eyes full of curiosity.
Zhao Jianhua lowered his voice, "Great Immortal, are you okay?"
The weasel shook his head.
"We have to take a long flight next. Daxian, just hold on. When we get to Country Y, I will take you to have a big meal."
Occasionally, someone would pass by, but due to the angle, the little head inside the backpack could not be seen, as it was completely blocked by Zhao Jianhua.
In the eyes of outsiders, he was whispering into the corner, and his behavior was so strange that passersby quickened their pace, thinking that Zhao Jianhua might not have some mental illness.
While Zhao Jianhua and Weasel were talking, a small figure approached them.
"Uncle, why are you talking to the air?"
The sudden childish voice startled Zhao Jianhua, and the weasel quickly shrank back, but the little boy still saw the yellow shadow.
The little boy's eyes widened and his mouth formed an O shape, "Uncle, how can you bring pets? My mother said that pets are not allowed on the plane."
Zhao Jianhua smiled quickly and said, "You are wrong, kid. That was not a pet just now, but my uncle's doll."
The little boy obviously didn't believe it, and replied seriously: "Uncle, I'm young, don't lie to me, that one is obviously——"
Before he finished speaking, a tall woman came over, took his hand, and said with a worried look:
"Didn't Xiaojie tell you to wait for me where you are and stop running around? What if you meet a bad guy?"
"Mom, I just saw this uncle who was so strange."
The woman looked at where Xiaojie pointed, but there was no one there. "Xiaojie, what are you talking about? There is no one there."
It turns out that while mother and son were chatting, Zhao Jianhua had already rubbed oil on his feet and left.
Xiaojie scratched his head, "It's strange, that uncle was still there just now."
The woman pulled Xiaojie away, "It's almost time, we should go register."
Xiaojie looked around, trying to find Zhao Jianhua's figure, and soon found the familiar black backpack, and could vaguely see a furry head, looking towards his location.
"Mom, next time we go back, please take Lele with you."
Lele was a dog raised at home. The woman was a little helpless, "Didn't Xiaojie tell you that pets are not allowed on the plane, and checking pets is very troublesome and a waste of money."
Xiaojie shook his head, "No, that uncle just brought the pet. I saw it."
The woman didn't take his words to heart. She just thought it was a child having a tantrum and said casually: "Okay, okay, let's bring Lele next time."
Xiaojie then showed a satisfied smile.
On the other hand, Zhao Jianhua has already gone far away. Fortunately, he is a child this time and can fool him. If he encounters the airport staff, he will not be able to explain clearly with eight mouths.
Seeing that the registration time was getting closer, he put the backpack on his chest and faintly saw the green beast eyes through the gap in the zipper.
"Daxian, we will be boarding the plane later. There will be more people on the plane then, so we must be extremely careful."
He even managed to pass the security check, but there was only one last step left. Zhao Jianhua didn't want anything to happen to him.
Fortunately, the flight was uneventful and nothing happened. Since the plane took off, the weasel has stayed quietly in the backpack.
He was motionless. If it weren't for the ups and downs, Zhao Jianhua almost thought the weasel was cold.
After leaving the airport, I found a remote place and quickly opened my backpack.
"Wong Tai Sin, are you okay?"
He saw the weasel lying inside, its eyes dull. It was unimaginable that he saw a look of despair on its furry face.
When it came into contact with the fresh air, the weasel's little nose moved, and finally it was injected with some vitality, awakening the vitality in the body, and it shot out instantly like an arrow from the string.
Zhao Jianhua was stunned, looking at the yellow afterimage in the air, and ran to the grass nearby to vomit.
He finally knew why the weasel was so quiet on the plane. It turned out to be because it was airsick, so it didn't make any noise.
Zhao Jianhua suddenly felt dumbfounded.
The weasel vomited for a long time and finally recovered. It weakly waved its claws and made a five sign. Zhao Jianhua immediately understood what it meant.
"No problem, five roast chickens will be arranged for Daxian immediately."
As soon as he heard the word "roast chicken", the weasel immediately came to life.
After the two took a short rest, they prepared to head to their destination.
In the square full of European style, blond and blue-eyed people from the country Y walked through it, and countless white pigeons were circling and flying. Under the blue sky and white clouds, it became a beautiful scenery.
The British Museum is located here, next to Lake Lorne. The lake is turquoise, reflecting the majestic reflection of the white palace buildings. It is full of ancient Roman style and can be said to be sparkling.
"We're finally here."
The British Museum is the oldest and largest museum in the world. It has collected many cultural relics and treasures from all over the world, which are rare in museums around the world.
However, behind the seemingly beautiful scenery, it is full of evil, because many of the collections here were plundered from the wars launched by Country Y from the 18th to 19th centuries. The main victim countries include Greece, Egypt, and Bactria.
This is one of the reasons why its collection is so rich.
Cultural relics and treasures from all over the world were plundered by these bandits. They left their homes and came to the other side of the ocean. They were even displayed shamelessly by these people.
Daxia has always wanted cultural relics to return, and has negotiated with Country Y in many ways, but how could Country Y spit out the things they obtained? They have always pretended to be deaf and dumb.
Thinking of this, Zhao Jianhua cursed and felt hateful even as a thief.
After all, even if he is a thief, he is still a Daxia person, and his feelings for family and country cannot be changed.
But fortunately, I was entrusted by an expert to bring back a cultural relic from Daxia and treat him the way he was treated. The British Museum would be sanctioned.
I can't help but feel a little excited when I think that a little person like myself can one day contribute to the motherland.
"If I succeed in stealing this time, I can brag about it for the rest of my life."
"If a thief does this, he must be called a big thief!"
It is now afternoon, and the crowds are surging, with many tourists from all over the place.
As the crowd entered the museum, the decoration inside became even more splendid and full of ancient atmosphere, as if they had traveled through the distance of time and space.
The cultural relics displayed in the glass showcases show the once glorious history to mankind thousands of years later. They are treasures and crystallizations that have been deposited in the long river of time.
Zhao Jianhua went straight to the Oriental Exhibition Hall, looking at the dazzling exhibits, his eyes glowed without desire, "Anything in here is priceless."
The ancient scrolls spread slowly, silently telling the long history of Daxia.
The characters in the painting are lifelike, their manners are clear, the details are exquisite, the brushwork is fine and vigorous, and the colors are classic and beautiful. It is exactly the "Picture of Admonitions of Women's History" created by Gu Kaizhi.
It is the earliest extant silk painting, and its status in the history of Bactrian art is self-evident. It is a pity that it should have been displayed in the Capital Museum, but now it is living abroad.
In addition, the British Museum also houses the three-color Arhat and Dunhuang murals of the Liao Dynasty in Yi County. Their preciousness is immeasurable. Unfortunately, they have all been lost abroad, which is extremely sad.
The archaeological shelf next to it is even more packed with ancient cultural relics from the East, so densely packed that there are almost no gaps.
Seeing that his family's cultural relics and treasures are now living in this small space, and there are even many people nearby taking out their cameras to take pictures, Zhao Jianhua felt a little complicated for a while.
If these cultural relics are from wanderers who have left their hometown, they must also be homesick.
Zhao Jianhua subconsciously clenched his fists and couldn't help but murmur to himself: "If these cultural relics can be returned to the East, I will be the hero of Daxia from now on!"
Letting them return to the embrace of the motherland is also the hope of many Daxia people. Unfortunately, the road is long.
"Zhizhizhi——"
A squeaking sound came from the backpack, which brought Zhao Jianhua back from his thoughts, and he almost forgot the important mission of coming here.
"Don't worry, Great Immortal, now is not a good time to take action."
Even if he had the talisman gifted by an expert, Zhao Jianhua was not so bold as to commit a crime in broad daylight. Wouldn't he be waiting for others to catch him?
After roughly touring the entire museum and planning the route, Zhao Jianhua already had a plan in mind, "Let's wait until dark before taking action."
As night falls slowly, the afterglow of the setting sun shrouds the white buildings, coating them with a faint golden light. There are only a few pigeons left in the square.
It's closing time for the British Museum, and tourists are leaving one after another. The museum, which was bustling during the day, is now silent.
Security guards will patrol every once in a while to check the situation in various places in the museum, and cameras are also monitoring in real time.
There were clattering footsteps in the empty corridor. Several teams of security guards were using flashlights to carefully check the surroundings. They were also armed with guns.
There are also security guards standing guard at the exit of each exhibition hall. The surroundings are so airtight that not even a mosquito can fly in.
Moreover, when the museum is closed, the glass cabinets displaying the items will automatically lock. If anyone tries to open them, an alarm will be triggered.
Zhao Jianhua lurked in the green belt nearby. The green belt nearby was as tall as half a man, so it was no problem to completely hide his figure.
Looking at the security guards with real guns and nuclear bombs, he felt a little scared. He had been a thief for so long and had never experienced such a big battle.
If he was slightly careless and made the wrong move, a bullet could send him home.
Even though he was ready, Zhao Jianhua couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. After all, it was a matter of wealth and life.
"Great Immortal, do you think the talisman given to me by the master really has magical effects?"
"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"
Weasel's expression was a little impatient, urging Zhao Jianhua to act quickly.
"Great Immortal, if something happens then, you can't just die without saving me. Seeing that I've eaten so much roast chicken for you, you must protect me."
The weasel nodded and pushed Zhao Jianhua with his little paw.
Zhao Jianhua took out the yellow talisman from his pocket and stuck it on himself, and also put one on the weasel. According to the expert, this yellow talisman has the function of holding one's breath and sneaking in, which can ensure that they sneak in quietly.
With the yellow talisman close to his body, Zhao Jianhua didn't notice any changes and couldn't help but mutter, "Is it so magical?"
He glanced at the weasel next to him and showed a flattering smile, "How about you help me try, Daxian? Even if something happens, you can still escape according to your ability."
If the yellow talisman had no effect, it would be very suspicious for him to appear here at night, and he would definitely be detained by the security guards for careful interrogation, which might lead to a lot of trouble.
But if it's a weasel, he doesn't have so many worries. If the yellow talisman doesn't work, he can find other ways to get in.
Weasel rolled his eyes and looked down upon Zhao Jianhua's timidity.
"Great Immortal, I am being cautious. Think about it, if I am caught, who will buy you roast chicken?"
Weasel thought for a while and felt that this was also true. He nodded and expressed his willingness to be a pioneer.
Zhao Jianhua was overjoyed and said, "Thank you so much, Immortal. I will definitely serve you a lot of roast chicken when the time comes!"
The weasel emerged from the green belt, swaggered close to the museum, and came to the main entrance. Strangely enough, the security guards really didn't react at all!
Seeing this scene, Zhao Jianhua's heart skipped a beat.
The weasel made faces at those finishing touches, and even twisted its body, rolled and jumped in mid-air, and made various movements that even Zhao Jianhua couldn't help but sweat.
The security guard's eyes were like decorations, not noticing the rampant weasel in front of him at all.
Zhao Jianhua couldn't help but swallowed his saliva, his heart beating like a drum, and he stepped forward cautiously.
Three meters, two meters, one meter.
Seeing that the security guards were getting closer and closer, but they still didn't react at all, Zhao Jianhua's actions gradually became more aggressive, even like a weasel, taking steps to disown his relatives.
This feeling is so good!
The British Museum was a tightly guarded museum, but he was able to swagger in under the eyes of so many people.
Zhao Jianhua waved to the group of security guards and entered the exhibition hall.
From the security guards' perspective, there was nothing in front of them and nothing unusual around them.
However, one of them couldn't help but said: "Why did I feel like someone was passing by just now?"
Zhao Jianhua, who was not far away, heard this and thought it was the invisibility charm that suddenly failed. His body suddenly froze, as if the pause button had been pressed, and he did not dare to move.
The companions around me felt a little funny when they heard this, "Don't talk about people here, not even a ghost."
"That's right."
After the two chatted for a few words, they didn't say anything else.
It turned out to be a false alarm.
Zhao Jianhua cursed secretly and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
These security guards would never have imagined that just now, a man and a beast walked in openly and openly.
The weasel's mung bean-sized eyes shone with a faint light, watching the surrounding environment vigilantly.
Zhao Jianhua's heartbeat was beating faster than usual. Although he had stolen many things before, this was his first time in a museum, and it was also the world-famous British Museum.
Even with the blessing of the invisibility charm, one cannot take it lightly. After all, if someone discovers it, it can be said that the success will be in vain.
Although the invisibility charm can make people invisible, it cannot hide other movements. Just like just now, the security guard seemed to be aware that if he accidentally made a sound, it would be noticed by others.
"We must fight quickly to avoid long nights and long dreams."
Since he had already visited the spot during the day, Zhao Jianhua quickly arrived at the location of the Oriental Pavilion.
Looking at the cameras around him, Zhao Jianhua decided to get rid of these surveillance cameras.
"I'll leave these monitoring tasks to you, Daxian."
The weasel raised his head and patted his chest, as if it was wrapped around himself.
I saw it jump up, and with the blessing of cultivation, it jumped to a position flush with the surveillance camera. Its tail tilted upward, and light yellow gas burst out from behind, covering the camera.
The whole process only took a few seconds. By the time Zhao Jianhua reacted, the weasel had landed smoothly on the ground.
Zhao Jianhua was stunned and couldn't help but give a thumbs up, "As expected of you!"
I never expected that the weasel's solution would be so special.
Zhao Jianhua took out several other talismans that Ye Qin had given him previously, one of which was used to find items with the mottled atmosphere of time.
According to what the expert said, the artifact that can make the talisman paper shine is what he is looking for.
No matter how you look at the talisman paper, it's ordinary. Zhao Jianhua couldn't help but mutter, "Does it really shine? Could it be a trick on me?"
There was no time to think so much now. Zhao Jianhua kept walking through the display cabinets with the yellow talisman, but there was no response from the yellow talisman, which made him wonder if it was useless.
Zhao Jianhua touched his chin and asked, "Maybe this talisman needs to be activated, reciting mantras, etc. This is what I see on TV."
"Hurry like a law?!"
Weasel looked at a fool and even distanced himself from Zhao Jianhua.
"Maybe this talisman has lost its effect."
Just when Zhao Jianhua was bored, the handwriting on the talisman paper seemed to come alive. The golden light slowly flowed through it, full of endless mystery, and the originally ordinary paper became extraordinary.
Zhao Jianhua couldn't help but open his mouth wide, and stammered: "It actually shines!"
He couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and immediately picked up the talisman. He found that the farther east he went, the brighter the light of the talisman, like a firefly crawling in the dark, guiding his direction.
"It seems that the cultural relics that the master wants me to find should be in the east."
Zhao Jianhua followed the guidance of the talisman and came to the glass display cabinet, where various exquisite and small jade articles, jade pendants and rings were displayed.
One of the wine gourd jade pendants is placed in the center. It is pale white in color, with a few touches of yellow and green mixed in. The overall body is flat and thin, lifelike, and looks very delicate.
The golden light on the talisman paper formed a faint golden thread, and there seemed to be some kind of guidance that fell on the jade pendant.
The originally white jade pendant also emitted a faint light, attracting each other with the talisman.
Although Zhao Jianhua had previously known that the master had mysterious methods, seeing the magical scene in front of him still caused quite a ripple in his heart.
Now that the thing has been found, the key is how to take out the jade pendant.
During the day, Zhao Jianhua observed the glass display cabinet. It seemed ordinary, but in fact there was something inside. The interior was connected to an alarm. It would automatically lock when the museum was closed at night. If there was any external force, the alarm next to it would sound.
Moreover, these are explosion-proof display cabinets and cannot be opened by external force.
Zhao Jianhua took out the last talisman.
"I can only rely on you at the critical moment."
He pasted the talisman paper on the glass display case, and saw that the writing on it began to flow, emitting a faint light, wrapping the entire glass display case.
"Is this enough?"
Zhao Jianhua took out all kinds of special tools.
"Finally I have come to my use..."
He used his superb lock-picking skills to carefully open the glass cabinet, glancing at the alarm next to him from the corner of his eye from time to time. The whole process could be said to be on tenterhooks.
As soon as the alarm sounded, he immediately returned his belongings to their original places.
However, when he took out the jade pendant and restored the showcase, the alarm never sounded, as if some invisible force interfered with its judgment.
It seems that the talisman separated the glass showcase from the alarm, so it was not triggered.
Zhao Jianhua could be said to be convinced. He had no idea that a small talisman could have such unpredictable power, and his respect for the master rose to a new level.
Looking at the jade next to him, Zhao Jianhua was not unmoved, but thinking about the master's instructions, he still didn't have the guts to do it.
After this period of time, he has completely surrendered to Ye Qin's ability, and can be said to be the kind of person who obeys his words.
"It would be great if I could take you all back one day."
This thought flashed through Zhao Jianhua's mind.
Everything was quickly restored, and except for the loss of a jade pendant, there were no changes here.
Just as Zhao Jianhua was preparing to leave.
"Dong——"
It was already early in the morning, and with the ringing of the ancient Western clock in the square, the museum's patrol officers also ushered in their second patrol.
The direction of their patrol happened to be the Oriental Exhibition Hall.
The sound of bells mixed with the sound of footsteps was approaching here.
"Someone is coming!"
If you don't come early, you won't come later, so I just chose this point.
There is only one exit in the exhibition hall. If you go out at this time, you will definitely run into someone.
Now that the invisibility effect has expired, Zhao Jianhua does not dare to take risks. In just a few seconds, countless thoughts have popped up in his mind.
However, things backfired, and soon dozens of security guards came towards this direction, and the direction happened to be facing Zhao Jianhua. At this moment, it was too late for him to leave.
The venue here is not big, and it is easy to bump into things next to you in the twists and turns. It will be even more dangerous if you accidentally make some noise.
Although there are many jades on display here, it is not obvious that one of them is missing, but what if you find that the wine gourd jade pendant is missing.
Zhao Jianhua's brain was running rapidly and he was constantly thinking of ways. In this situation, he had to prepare for the worst.
Once something is found to be missing, the museum will quickly impose strict security measures and block all entrances and exits.
At the critical moment, Zhao Jianhua calmed down. Looking out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly discovered that the weasel was nowhere to be seen. He was obviously still around just now, but he didn't know where he went in the blink of an eye.
Looking at the security guards getting closer and closer, Zhao Jianhua's heart beat like a drum.
"boom!"
At the critical moment, there was a muffled sound from the Egyptian Exhibition Hall, which was closest to the Oriental Exhibition Hall, and quickly attracted the attention of the security guards.
"There is movement over at the Egyptian Exhibition Hall!"
"Hurry over and have a look."
Looking at the back of the security guard leaving, Zhao Jianhua couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Not long after they left, a yellow shadow appeared at the door. It was the weasel that suddenly disappeared before.
Zhao Jianhua walked forward quickly and said, "Where have you been, Daxian? You almost scared me to death just now. You didn't know that those security guards suddenly walked over just now. If it hadn't been for the sudden suddenness next to you -"
The weasel didn't seem surprised. He pointed to the Egyptian pavilion next to him and gestured with his hand, "Zhizhizhizhi."
Zhao Jianhua realized it later and said in great surprise: "I understand, was it you, the Great Immortal, who caused the movement just now?"
The weasel nodded, with a teachable expression.
It turned out that when the weasel realized something was wrong, it ran into the nearby exhibition hall. It was small, fast, and blessed with aura, so the security guards couldn't detect its existence at all.
Making a little noise to attract these security guards solved Zhao Jianhua's dilemma.
"Daxian, you are so smart. I will buy 10 roast chickens to reward you when you go back!"
All the security guards arrived at the Egyptian Exhibition Hall, and Zhao Jianhua and Weasel immediately ran away. This time it went very smoothly without any accidents.
On the other side, the security guards who came to the Egyptian Exhibition Hall checked around and found nothing unusual.
"It's strange. I heard movement just now, but why was it suddenly gone again?"
"Is it possible that we heard it wrong just now? But it's impossible that so many people heard it wrong."
"Perhaps the window was not closed tightly and the wind blew over?"
The security guards checked the doors and windows again and found that they were all tightly closed.
Everyone looked at each other with confused expressions. Since nothing was found, they had no choice but to leave it alone and continue to patrol the Oriental Exhibition Hall.
As usual, when the flashlight swept away, the security captain Lawrence seemed to notice something and glanced at the jade display area next to him.
"What's wrong with Lawrence?"
"How do I remember? There should be a jade pendant here."
To the people of Country Y, Daxia's jades all looked the same in their eyes. Others also looked carefully and found nothing unusual.
"Lawrence, you are too worried. There are so many jade pendants here, which one are you talking about?"
If bronze utensils, or porcelain, or scrolls were lost, it would easily attract the attention of security guards, but a small jade pendant would seem a bit inconspicuous among so many jade utensils.
"If something was really stolen, the alarm would have gone off, but it was always quiet."
"This is the British Museum, how could something be lost?"
"Yes, and the locks on the glass display cabinets are also very good."
Lawrence disagreed with his companion's statement.
Lawrence was quite impressed by this jade pendant, because its workmanship and material were top-notch among jade objects.
To be on the safe side, Lawrence took out the list of jade displays and checked it carefully, his face changed slightly, "The wine gourd jade pendant is missing!"
Others also came over, took a closer look, and found that a piece of jade pendant was indeed missing.
"No, hurry up and inform the curator!"
The silent museum suddenly became lively, and this incident soon alarmed the curator Harvitt.
Harvitt was furious in the office, "I must investigate this matter! In addition, the news is completely blocked and no information is allowed to be disclosed to the public. If the theft incident is spread, wouldn't it be ridiculed by others!"
Theft from the museum is not a trivial matter. Who could take away the wine gourd and jade pendant without anyone noticing, and without even triggering the alarm system.
"Don't worry, curator, I will definitely catch this thief!"
Lawrence immediately led people to investigate. He originally thought there was a problem with the alarm system, but after inspection, he found that everything was normal.
Since he was able to steal this jade pendant, could other items also be stolen?
Harveyt mobilized all the administrators and began to count the items, because there were too many things stored in the museum, and the large items were okay. If small items were lost, they would not be easily discovered for a while. This was undoubtedly a big project.
"That's strange, why didn't the alarm sound?"
There is an alarm bell installed on each glass showcase. If someone touches the contents or damages the showcase vigorously, the alarm will sound immediately.
The thief was able to take out the jade pendant without triggering the alarm, and we don’t know what method he used.
As for the fingerprints on the showcase, I don’t know how many tourists touched them throughout the day. If you want to find the thief’s fingerprints and determine his identity, it is basically like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Lawrence quickly ordered: "Go and bring out the surveillance camera."
In the monitoring room, Lawrence and others stared intently at the content on the screen, seeing tourists coming and going like a dense ant colony.
The British Museum has a very large flow of people, and there are also many people staying in the jade display area. Judging from the camera, everyone is normal, there is nothing suspicious, and the jade pendant is still there during the day.
If it were to steal the jade pendant during this period, it would be extremely difficult and impossible.
"In other words, the jade pendant was stolen when the museum was closed."
Lawrence rubbed his eyes. After watching the monitoring for so long, he was still a little tired even after adjusting the acceleration.
"Keep playing back."
The surveillance footage in the first half of the night after closing was all normal, but later on, a small yellow figure appeared in the camera, quickly attracting everyone's attention.
"Wait what is this?"
Lawrence and others couldn't help but get closer to the screen and said with some uncertainty: "It looks like a weasel?!"
The doors and windows in the museum are very tight. Not to mention weasels, even flies might not be able to get in.
The weasel glanced at the surveillance camera and smiled slyly.
Looking at such a scene, everyone had an inexplicable feeling of absurdity, as if the weasel knew that someone would see this scene.
"Is this weasel looking at the camera?"
"It's probably a matter of angle. How could the weasel know there's surveillance here?"
Soon, the weasel under surveillance jumped up and almost jumped to the same level as the surveillance camera. The pair of green beast eyes were continuously enlarged, and after looking at it for a long time, it actually felt dizzy.
The light yellow gas continued to spread, and the lens became a little blurry, as if it was blocked by something.
"Why can't you see clearly? Adjust the angle here.?"
No matter how Lawrence and the others enlarged the picture and performed technical repairs, the camera was still extremely blurry, as if there was a hazy layer of fog blocking their exploration.
After some operations, the technician said helplessly: "Lawrence, the instrument shows that everything is normal. It should be caused by external reasons. This is the clearest picture."
Lawrence looked at the screen. Even the clearest picture was still blurry and he couldn't see anything clearly.
The pale yellow gas is shrouded outside the camera, full of inexplicable mystery.
He was surprised: "Are there any ways you here?"
The technician shook his head.
This vague shot lasted for nearly twenty minutes before it slowly became clear. The strange weasel had long disappeared.
Lawrence then appeared, and there were no other suspicious persons.
Yu Pei disappeared at this time.
Although he did not see anyone, Lawrence was almost sure that the thief started at this time, but I do n’t know what means he used to make the camera lose the effect temporarily.
Lawrence also asked the technicians carefully, but he did not give a clear answer.
It's just the weasel, and the weird movements in front of the camera, which makes people feel a bit unreasonable.
"How could there be a weasel?"
It must not be stolen by Yupei. Lawrence felt that this idea was too ridiculous. It should be an accident to come here to appear here.
He remembered the strange movement he heard in the Egyptian exhibition hall last night. He had nothing to find when he looked at it. He wondered if there was some connection between the two.
There was no problem with the Egyptian exhibition hall, but the Oriental Exhibition Hall was lost.
Lawrence reported to Harvert with the results found.
For this result, Harvete was very dissatisfied. His face can be said to be Wuyun densely. "This is what you investigated? Saying a bunch of specious nonsense, I didn't even catch it by person."
Lawrence's expression was also helpless. "The curator, the thief, was too cunning, leaving no trace, but why, this person only takes a piece of jade."
According to this person's ability, you should take away a lot of good things.
If this level of international thieves really take it, it is impossible to take such a point, and a guess appeared in Lawrence.
"Curator, will it be our own hands? If you only take a piece of jade, it is likely that you don't want to attract our attention."
Only their own talents can do this, and the stolen theft unknowingly can destroy the alarm bells in advance, and then recover after success.
It is not unreasonable to think about it so carefully.
Harvete's expression was getting colder. "The staff in the museum also had to check. In case of our internal staff, he only stole Yu Pei this time. Who knows what he will steal next time, you must get out."
Soon Lawrence and others began to investigate the museum staff one by one, but unfortunately there was no harvest.
Regardless of the clues and traces, Yu Pei is like evaporated out of thin air without any traces.
Due to the loss of Yu Pei, the British Museum hung the notice of "closed museum rest", but what they announced was that they would maintain and maintain cultural relics.
So no one thought of the stolen item for the time being, but it was clear that such a big thing could not be fired!
