Chapter 906: Dealing With It (1)

If it wasn’t man-made, could it be the work of demons and ghosts?

With a heart full of doubt, Zhu Wuwan followed behind Hao Jiyong and arrived at the Chaoyun warehouse that occupied thousands of square meters. She carefully walked around the inside and outside of the Chaoyun warehouse.

“Young master, in my opinion, if nothing unexpected happens, there must be demons and ghosts near our Chaoyun Farm Manor. Only they can steal so many precious medicinal herbs without anyone noticing.”

After Zhu Wuyang finished observing the warehouse, Hao Jiyong walked out impatiently and said with a hint of determination.

Zhu Wuwan glanced at him. If she didn’t know that this guy had been guarding the warehouse for more than ten years and that he couldn’t escape responsibility for the theft of the warehouse, she would have thought that he was the culprit behind the theft.

This was because once the theft of Chaoyun’s warehouse was reported, the first person to be held accountable would be Zhu Wuan, the new owner of Chaoyun Grange, even though Zhu Wuan had only been here for less than half a month.

The second was the butler of Chaoyun Farm, and the last was the owner of the warehouse, Hao Jiyong.

If the theft of the warehouse was determined to be the work of demons and ghosts, the responsibility of Zhu Wuyang and the butler would be greatly reduced. After all, demons and ghosts were not something that humans could resist, and the higher-ups of the family would not blame them too much.

When it came to Hao Jiyong, the responsibility would be further reduced, and the punishment would not be severe. At that time, Hao Jiyong could successfully escape.

If Hao Jiyong really stole the medicinal herbs inside, he could start selling them now. He would definitely be able to earn a large sum of money from it.

This sum of money was nothing to Zhu Wuan, but to Hao Jiyong, it was definitely a windfall. It was enough to increase his net worth by dozens of times.

“Do you have the key to the warehouse?” Zhu Wuyang asked.

“I have one here. Manor Lord, you have one too. We’re the only ones in the entire Chaoyun Grounds with one.” Hao Jiyong shook his head.

“Uh …” Zhu Wuyang recalled for a moment and realized that it was indeed the case. Moreover, the key was hidden in a secret room by the original owner, so there was no problem.

Zhu Wuyang looked at Hao Jiyong. ” Has anyone else touched the key recently? I’m talking about your key. ”

“No, I haven’t.” Hao Jiyong shook his head decisively. ” The key to the warehouse is extremely important. Other than when I need to take stock in the morning and occasionally when I need to pick up the goods, I hide it in a specific place. No one else knows about it except me. I won’t let anyone else take advantage of it. ”

” Think about it carefully, ” Zhu Wuwan said. ” Have you been negligent during this period of time? Or did someone else see an opportunity and take the key? ”

“This…” Hao Jiyong fell silent and thought about it carefully. Then, his expression changed slightly and he felt a little unnatural, but he did not immediately answer.

Zhu Wuan raised his eyebrows slightly. ” Hao Cangguan, this matter is of great importance. I hope you can report it truthfully. Otherwise, if anything is discovered in the investigation, you won’t be able to escape the blame. ”

In his voice, a wisp of spiritual fluctuation faintly gathered. Although he only brought a wisp of soul after transmigrating, the quality was beyond imagination. After fusing with the original owner’s soul, the original owner’s soul increased greatly and had some special effects.

Hao Jiyong was shocked and actually fell to the ground all of a sudden. His face was filled with fear as he said,”Son-in-law, I thought of something. One time, after collecting the medicinal herbs in the middle of the night, a few guards of the estate invited me to drink. At that time, it was freezing cold, so I didn’t put the key back immediately. Instead, I left it with me and drank with them.”

“After that, I got drunk, but when I woke up, I realized that the key was still with me, but it had been touched. Fortunately, it wasn’t taken away, so … So I didn’t take it seriously.”

“How long was it from the time you got drunk to the time you woke up? Where were you when you woke up?” Zhu Wuyang asked.

“It was about several hours in between,” Hao Jiyong hurriedly said.”At that time, we were drinking in the nearby town of Tongxin. There was an old blacksmith there who made keys.”

At this point, Hao Jiyong seemed to have thought of something. He looked at Zhu Wuhao in surprise and said, “”Guye, could it be…Could it be that the theft of the warehouse was not caused by demons and ghosts, but by someone stealing the medicinal herbs inside?”

“Not bad.” Zhu Wuyang nodded. There were no traces of demons or ghosts around the warehouse. With Zhu Wuyang’s mental power, he could basically determine this matter.

Since it was not done by demons and ghosts, it was naturally man-made.

If someone could take away the precious medicinal herbs in the warehouse without leaving any traces, and without picking the lock or digging a hole, it would be difficult for Zhu Wuyang not to suspect that something had happened on Hao Jiyong’s side.

Sure enough, after asking around, he discovered that there was indeed a loophole in Hao Ji Yong’s place.

Hao Jiyong’s face was a little pale and he hurriedly wanted to walk out. “”Young master, I’ll go ask the old blacksmith in United Town to see if anyone forged a key there a few months ago.”

“Don’t go yet.” Zhu Wanwan shook her head. ” Since the other party wanted to steal the things in the warehouse, why would they leave behind such obvious traces like a duplicate key? Even if they really wanted to duplicate the key, they wouldn’t do it in Tongxin Town. Or rather, even if they did, they would have taken certain precautions. Even if you go and ask now, I’m afraid there won’t be any results. ”

“Then …” Hao Jiyong said. What should we do now?”

“Go and secretly check if there’s anything unusual about the guards who drank with you that night. It’s best not to check it yourself, but to find a few trustworthy people to investigate.” ” Leave some people in the warehouse to keep watch at night, ” Zhu Wuyang suggested. ” At the same time, change the keys. Don’t let the thieves have another chance to take advantage of us. ”

“Alright, son-in-law. I’ll get it done right away.” Hao Jiyong nodded repeatedly.

Looking at Hao Jiyong’s departing figure, Zhu Wuyang turned around and continued what he was doing. He observed this great world and earned breakthrough stones at the same time.

As for the theft of the warehouse, Zhu Wuyang did not take it to heart. To him, it was just a small matter. If it was not because he did not want to waste time, with Zhu Wuyang’s strength, he could interrogate the murderer in minutes.

However, this matter also gave Zhu Wanhao an idea. He wanted to master a secret technique similar to the characteristics of the Dongyuan Continent’s Dream Bubble. This would be beneficial for him to control some intelligent life forms in the Xuanhuang Great World and earn resources and treasures for him.

After experiencing the convenience and benefits brought about by the Dream Bubble, Zhu Wuyang really could not bear to use such a useful method that could help him earn a lot of breakthrough stones.

After all, as long as he enslaved the other party, he would immediately be able to obtain the other party’s resources and treasures, even including the other party’s connections and resources. It was much easier than starting from scratch.
