106: Chapter 106 Treasure Map
Not just Li Ming and the others, even everyone in the livestream was dumbfounded.
"Mom! There's a superman! I saw a superman."
"Wait? Is this the legendary 'dog jumping over a wall'? Is this something a human can do?"
"That wall is at least three meters high! How did he get up there?"
"I don't know, but looking at the Streamer's skills... I really doubt his previous profession."
"Right! The more I look, the more criminal it seems!"
...
At this moment, Li Ming regained his senses and roared, "What are you all standing around for? Chase him!"
"Oh, oh! A ladder... quick, get a ladder!"
Everyone scrambled to search the surroundings.
An Officer Hat even tried Qin Mo's method, sprinting toward the wall and jumping, but... he failed...
Meanwhile, on the other side of the wall.
Qin Mo was dumbfounded.
There was actually no way forward! There were only small doors on both sides of the wall, but they wouldn't open...
"Hahaha..."
"Are you stunned? Is your brain buzzing?"
"I thought he escaped to safety, but it turned out to be a turtle in a jar!"
"Sigh, Brother Mo, time to say goodbye!"
"Wait? Don't you have a hang glider? Just fly away!"
"Upstairs, use your brain, will you? How can a hang glider fly without wind? Do you think you can just step on your own feet and ascend to heaven on the spot?"
...
Qin Mo stood in the narrow corridor with an ashen face, feeling so angry he wanted to curse.
Who the hell blocked the passage? Do they have no manners? Who are they trying to keep out?
"Captain Li! The ladder is here!"
"Go up, go up! Don't let him escape!"
Hearing the voices outside the wall, Qin Mo's face was grim. Even if he had great abilities, he had no way to use them now...
Creak!
Suddenly, the small door on Qin Mo's left actually opened from the inside.
A young man with greyish-white hair walked out.
Qin Mo's eyes widened instantly.
"Why are you here?"
Ye looked at Qin Mo expressionlessly: "Are you coming or not?"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Saying that, Qin Mo impatiently walked into the small door.
"By the way, why are you like a ghost? How are you everywhere?"
"Has anyone ever told you that you talk way too much?"
"Really? I don't think so!"
"Anyway, where are you taking me?"
...
"Mute again? Say something!"
"Shut up!"
"Okay!"
...
"Hahaha..."
"The overbearing CEO has come to save his little pampered wife!"
"Damn gays upstairs, shut your stinky mouths! My Brother Mo is a 24k titanium alloy pure straight man!"
"I really don't know why the Streamer's livestream is full of such strange people. It's terrifying when you think about it! Have you heard the saying? Birds of a feather flock together!"
"Get out! Everyone get out! Brother Mo is a straight man! He belongs to us little fairies!"
"Upstairs, I looked at your profile. You call yourself a little fairy? With your physique, you'd squash the Streamer flat!"
...
"Huh?"
At this time, an Officer Hat finally climbed up the wall. Looking over, there was no one inside. He couldn't help but scratch his head, his face full of confusion.
"What the hell?"
"What's going on? Go down and catch him!"
Li Ming frowned from below.
"Captain Li, there's... no one here!"
Li Ming was instantly enraged upon hearing this: "Do you think I'm blind? So many people watched Qin Mo climb up, and you're telling me no one's there? Is there a passage inside?"
The Officer Hat on the wall hesitated and said, "Captain Li, I'm really not lying to you, there's really no one inside! And there's no passage either."
"How is that possible?"
"Get down! I'll go up and see!"
The Officer Hat climbed back down.
"This... this..."
When Li Ming climbed up, he was instantly stunned.
"This is impossible! It's completely a closed-off passage inside, how could he disappear into thin air?"
Refusing to believe it, Li Ming jumped over the wall, carefully checked the surroundings, and pulled at the small doors nearby.
"What the hell?"
...
Qin Mo followed Ye through the small door and walked forward.
The crisscrossing paths along the way were like a maze. If he had walked alone, he probably would have gotten lost...
Before long, the two emerged from a huge drainage pipe.
Looking around, there were rows of villas. Even though it was night, the area was still brightly lit.
Qin Mo was stunned.
"Where is this? Where the heck did he bring me?"
Ye glanced at Qin Mo and said calmly, "Follow me!"
After saying that, he walked forward without looking back.
"Hey! Where exactly are we going?"
Faced with Qin Mo's question, Ye didn't respond and continued walking forward.
Qin Mo spread his hands helplessly.
What a weirdo...
Qin Mo followed Ye until they reached a luxurious villa.
Ye took out a key, opened the door, and slowly walked in.
Qin Mo was a bit surprised.
"I didn't expect you to be quite wealthy?"
Ye looked back at Qin Mo and said calmly, "I can't compare to you, the eldest young master of the Qin Family."
Qin Mo frowned upon hearing this. "You investigated me?"
"Don't forget, I am a Detective. It should be quite simple for a Detective to find out something, shouldn't it?"
As he spoke, Ye took out two bottles of beer from the fridge.
"Want a drink?"
Qin Mo took the beer and said calmly, "What do you want from me? You didn't just bring me here to drink with you, did you?"
"Of course not."
Then, Ye walked into the study.
After a while, he came out with a map and handed it to Qin Mo.
"Take a look!"
"What is this?"
Qin Mo took it curiously and scanned it, then became quite surprised.
"A treasure map? These things are pretty rare. Where did it come from?"
"A client gave it to me. He wants me to help him find this treasure."
Qin Mo looked around the villa. "Looking at you, you don't seem like someone who lacks money. Why would you be interested in this treasure map?"
"I am a Detective. A Detective's duty is to solve riddles. Don't you think this is very challenging?"
"Besides, you're a Detective too."
Qin Mo frowned and said, "So you looked for me just for this?"
"Otherwise? Do you think I took such a big risk just to help you? I'm not some do-gooder."
"You guy..."
Qin Mo was speechless.
"So, are you coming with me or not?"
Qin Mo rubbed his chin and thought about it carefully.
"Sounds... quite interesting."
"Then I'll tell you about it in detail!"
"This time, the client is a descendant of an ancient emperor. His great-grandfather once ordered someone to build a huge castle in the outskirts, imitating Western architecture."
"When the war broke out, his great-grandfather buried a large amount of the family's property and various important documents in the castle. Later, his great-grandfather unfortunately died in the war."
"Only a treasure map was left, but he has never been able to understand it, so he commissioned me."
"The outskirts? The outskirts of Yanjing?"
"Exactly!"
"Sounds pretty interesting. Let's go! We're heading out!"
As soon as he said this, Ye rolled his eyes.
"It's the middle of the night. If you want to go, go by yourself. I'm going to sleep."
"Uh..."
...
