Chapter 46 A child has gone missing.
Within the luxury area of the capital city.
It was late at night, and the entire luxury residential area was so quiet that not a sound could be heard. The cats and dogs had all gone home to sleep, and no one was still wandering around outside like a homeless person.
The two quiet rooms were tightly closed, but a deafening snore came from Liu Chun's room, instantly shattering the tranquility of the neighborhood.
"Snap!"
The bedroom light and door were turned on at the same time, and then the agent came out of the room, glancing at Liu Chun's room next door with annoyance and disdain.
"I'm really fed up. Can you please turn the snoring down a bit?"
Although he almost shouted, Liu Chun's snoring seemed to have a grudge against him, and the volume gradually increased by several decibels.
"Alright, alright, you go to sleep, I'll go sit in the living room for a while."
The agent reluctantly walked to the sofa, where the snoring was indeed much quieter in the living room. At that moment, Master Gu Xie also called him.
"Hey! Lord Gu Xie... Yes, yes, he's already asleep at my house, snoring so loudly, he's sleeping like a log!... Oh, okay, okay, I know what to do, don't worry."
Meanwhile, Liu Chun had already gotten up and prepared. The door had been locked in advance, so when his agent was making a phone call in the living room, he had already gone to the window.
A night wind blew, carrying with it a chilling, yin energy. When gusts of wind blew against Liu Chun, he instinctively shrank back.
"Ouch~, I should have worn more clothes earlier. I didn't expect the nights in the capital to be so cold!"
Liu Chun quietly pulled back a corner of the curtains in her agent's room to make sure no one was inside. To ensure no one else in the neighborhood would notice anything amiss, she quietly climbed over the wall.
"Clatter!"
Liu Chun took out the special flashlight provided by Pang Wenke's organization, turned it on, and with the curtains drawn, even if the bedroom was brightly lit, outsiders wouldn't think there was anything wrong, since in their view, the bedroom was always dark.
"Boxes! Boxes!"
Liu Chun quickly scanned the areas scattered throughout the bedroom. It was clear that the boxes wouldn't just be left there like that. This also confirmed that the agent might have actually come into direct contact with the 'antiques' without suffering any consequences.
"Do you also know how to distinguish between these kinds of things?"
Previously, Pang Wenke was worried and fearful, so he quickly dispelled the influence of the ancient artifact. Liu Chun didn't know if he was like this agent, able to absorb the power of the ancient artifact and turn it into "internal strength".
Recalling Pang Wenke's half-dead appearance earlier, Liu Chun felt that he shouldn't be that kind of person.
Next, they checked all the hidden places in the bedroom. Several boxes that might have contained boxes were opened, but they were empty except for a bunch of useless junk and old clothes.
Liu Chun stood up, scratched his head, and muttered to himself with a puzzled look, "Hey! Where did I put that box?"
He thought that even though his agent's house was big, he couldn't just throw such important things into a secluded corner or storage room, could he?
But thinking about it carefully, even he himself thought so, so I don't plan to go to that kind of place to look for it, because the box might really be there.
"It's not in this bedroom. Let's check the storage room or something similar."
Just as Liu Chun was moving to climb out of the window, the door was opened.
The agent came back.
As soon as he entered the bedroom, he saw the swaying window, his brow furrowing immediately, and he solemnly demanded, "Who are you?"
Seeing that the other party did not answer, the agent quickly ran to the bedside after turning on the light, pulled back the curtains and looked outside, mainly watching the top and bottom of the window for any abnormalities.
"Phew, it was just the wind. I thought..."
Gradually, the agent seemed to realize something and hurriedly examined the entire bedroom furnishings again until he was sure that none of the furnishings in the room had been touched before he lay down on the bed.
"This Liu Chun is no ordinary person. Many people know about what happened before." The agent closed his eyes and recalled, "But since he is unwilling to join the company, has he sensed something?"
"I only owe him a few hundred dollars. He shouldn't know about any other secrets in the company, right?"
"Snap!"
"You dead rat, shut up!"
Since her agent didn't get up to check, Liu Chun shrank back further, trying to remain quiet.
He hadn't even had a chance to run out the window when his manager came in, so he had to hide under the bed in the bedroom. And normally no one would be so bored as to check under the bed all the time.
Since there was no way to leave here in the short term, Liu Chun simply continued to hide under the bed and wait until dawn. The only downside was that his manager's shoes smelled strongly, which made him feel uncomfortable.
When it got light, the agent left the room, and Liu Chun tiptoed back to her own room to change into clean clothes.
Just as he finished, his agent opened his door: "Did you sleep well last night?"
Liu Chun stretched out her arms and let out a long breath, looking at him with a dazed expression as if she had just woken up: "It's alright, it's just that this place is too quiet, I might not be used to it yet, but I should be fine in a few days."
"How many more days do you want?" — Hearing Liu Chun's words, the agent was furious. If it weren't for Liu Chun's deafening snoring last night, the agent wouldn't have had to get up early to wake him up with panda-like dark circles under his eyes.
"That's fine. I'll prepare breakfast now, and then we'll go to the bank together to withdraw the money, and I'll pay you back."
"No more amnesia?" Liu Chun smiled and nodded, "Then you'd better slow down, I need to wash up and take a shower before going to the film set."
The agent broke down again, his face contorted in rage, but he still managed to suppress his anger and said, "Then take your time showering. I need to get ready before I start. It won't be long, there's plenty of time."
Liu Chun went into the bathroom and closed the door, completely ignoring him.
"Damn it! You owe me a favor, you'd better pay it back. Humph, I have plenty of ways to get rid of you so easily."
"Ouch!"
The agent bumped his head on the door frame and stormed into the kitchen to make breakfast, feeling both angry and frustrated. He was in a bad mood all morning, and nothing he did went right. He was having a really bad day.
Liu Chun, who had already entered the bathroom, was secretly delighted. He had long disliked this agent, and this was exactly the kind of situation where the enemy's misfortune made him happy.
At that moment, Liu Chun's phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was a message from Pang Wenke.
—Urgent news! A child has gone missing from a family in the vicinity of Beijing. The organization requests that we accompany the special forces to the scene to investigate. Depart immediately!—
Liu Chun smiled and replied: "What exactly is going on?"
Pang Wenke, who had been keeping himself in free time, organized his thoughts and slowly typed them into his phone. Liu Chun received his reply quite a while later.
—A little boy suddenly had the idea to climb the big tree in the village to steal a bird's nest, and suddenly he shot up into the sky. That night, the boy's body underwent a strange change, and he ran out of his house and disappeared. The whole village is still looking for him to this day. —
Liu Chun replied: "Then you should be careful!"
"Brother Liu, help me!"
—We'll see. I haven't even found the box yet. I'll have to keep looking to find the tiger statue. I'm not much more relaxed than you are. —
—Okay! Then be careful! (Sad emoji)—
