C187 The Red Soul Stone Was Stolen(2)
"Young Master, Young Master, it is Zi Lan." Zi Lan's voice sounded from outside the door.
"Come in." Lee Zhuohua did not know why Zi Lan would knock on his door at this time.
"Creak."
Zi Lan pushed the door from the outside.
Zi Lan jogged in front of Lee Zhuohua, as if something had happened.
"What's wrong?" Lee Zhuohua looked at Zi Lan doubtfully and asked.
"Young master, quickly go and take a look. Something has been stolen from the Zhao Family Chamber of Commerce. It seems to be very important. Miss Zhao asked me to call you." Zi Lan quickly said.
"Hmm?" Hearing that, Lee Zhuohua thought about the matter of the Red Soul Stone that day.
On that day, a thief had broken into the Zhao Family Chamber of Commerce, wanting to steal the Red Soul Stone. Fortunately, Lee Zhuohua and Lee Zhuohua had arrived in time, or else the consequences would have been unimaginable.
But today, such a thing had happened. Lee Zhuohua felt that someone was secretly watching the Zhao Family Chamber of Commerce.
"Let's go." Lee Zhuohua immediately stood up and rushed towards Zhao Hanyan and the others.
Lee Zhuohua brought Zi Lan to the scene.
They saw that the Zhao Family Chamber of Commerce had already been surrounded, but there was no sign of the thief. Among them, Zhao Hanyan and Lin Wunian had serious expressions on their faces. It seemed that the situation was somewhat serious.
"Young Master Lee, you are here." Zhao Hanyan called out when he saw Lee Zhuohua.
"Miss Zhao, what's going on?" Lee Zhuohua immediately asked about the matter here.
When Zhao Hanyan heard Lee Zhuohua's question, he sighed with a complicated expression.
"The Red Soul Stone has been stolen." She spat out these words, as if there was anger buried in her heart.
When Lee Zhuohua heard this, his expression was filled with surprise. Ever since the incident of the theft that day, Zhao Hanyan and the others had strengthened the guards of the Red Soul Stone. How could such a thing still happen now?
"I wonder which group of people have been keeping an eye on my Zhao Family Chamber of Commerce. They actually came here to steal while we were having a debate at the Chamber of Commerce." Lin Wunian, who was at the side, said with a tone full of anger.
It turned out that the Red Soul Stone was stolen when Zhao Hanyan and the others went to participate in the Chamber of Commerce's competition. At that time, the guards of the Zhao Family Chamber of Commerce were weak, so the thief could take advantage of the situation to get in.
When the Red Soul Stone had been stolen, no one had noticed it. When Zhao Hanyan and the others returned, one of the guards discovered that the door was not tightly shut, so he went in to check and found that the Red Soul Stone had been stolen.
After that, Zhao Hanyan and the others rushed over and searched for a long time, but there was no clue.
"Miss Zhao, can you let me go in and take a look?" Lee Zhuohua suddenly said.
"Alas, Young Master Lee, you can go in." Zhao Hanyan's face was filled with complicated emotions as he sighed and said.
The matter of the Red Soul Stone was of utmost importance, so Zhao Hanyan was so worried when the Red Soul Stone was stolen.
Lee Zhuohua did not say anything to comfort Zhao Hanyan. Instead, he walked straight into the place where the Red Soul Stone was originally kept.
As soon as he entered, Lee Zhuohua found that the layout of the place was still intact, without any signs of damage. It was as if no one had ever entered this place, only the box that originally contained the Red Soul Stone had been opened, indicating that someone had indeed entered.
This made Lee Zhuohua very curious. How could the thief know where the Red Soul Stone was placed? If it wasn't done by his own people, it meant that the thief had been secretly observing the Zhao Family Chamber of Commerce for a long time.
That was how he was able to find the location of the Red Soul Stone so accurately.
"Hmm?" Lee Zhuohua found some clues.
His gaze found a piece of cloth inside the box containing the Red Soul Stone.
He picked up the piece of cloth and observed it carefully. He felt that the aura coming from the piece of cloth was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember what it was.
"Strange, it seems to be left behind by a thief. Why do I feel that it is a little familiar?" Lee Zhuohua thought doubtfully in his heart.
After that, he checked the room and found nothing else, so he walked out.
"Young Master Lee, did you find anything?" Zhao Hanyan asked with an anxious expression.
Lee Zhuohua looked at Zhao Hanyan and shook his head slightly. Then, he handed over the piece of cloth he had discovered.
"What is this?" Zhao Hanyan did not understand what it was.
"This should have been left behind by a Taoist thief. There should not be any other clues to follow." Lee Zhuohua said truthfully.
Zhao Hanyan took the piece of cloth and looked at it, as if she had an answer in her heart.
Lee Zhuohua didn't say anything to disturb the other party's thoughts. He knew that he was just an outsider to the Zhao Family Chamber of Commerce, so there were some things that he didn't need to participate in.
Zhao Hanyan looked at the rag thoughtfully for a long time before coming back to his senses.
"Thank you, Young Master Lee." Zhao Hanyan said apologetically.
"It's no trouble at all. I didn't help you much," Lee Zhuohua waved his hand.
Lee Zhuohua glanced at Zhao Hanyan and did not say anything more. He consciously turned around and left with Zi Lan.
"Looks like the origin of this Red Soul Stone has some background." Lee Zhuohua thought to himself.
After all, the Red Soul Stone was not an ordinary item. There was naturally something that no one knew about that the Zhao Family Chamber of Commerce was able to obtain. Lee Zhuohua would not involve himself in it. He only wanted to use the teleportation channel to go to the Qian Yuan Academy as soon as possible.
The piece of cloth, on the other hand, was what puzzled Lee Zhuohua. To be able to make him feel familiar, it was obvious that he had come into contact with someone or something, but he could not think of anything for the time being.
