Lin Fan's loud shout startled both Lin Qianxiao and Bai Weiwei, leaving expressions of confusion on their faces!
"Lin, you're yelling for no reason..."
Bai Weiwei was about to shout, but just as she began, Lin Fan hurriedly covered her mouth with his hand and motioned with a finger for her to keep quiet!
Then, Lin Fan glanced at Lin Qianxiao beside him and gave a mysterious wink!
Lin Qianxiao and Lin Fan grew up together. Although they hadn't seen each other in years, they still shared a tacit understanding. She imdiately understood Lin Fan's intention to use this thod to lure out the thief!
"That's great! It's a good thing the 'Sheepskin Scroll' was placed in a hidden spot earlier!"
Lin Qianxiao raised her voice too, but it still sounded soft, like a heavenly lody, very enchanting to hear!
"Thanks a lot! Your suggestion to put it lower was indeed clever. Let's go check the surveillance to see which daring thief dared to steal from my room. Let's leave the 'Sheepskin Scroll' under the bed for now; it's safer there!" Lin Fan continued loudly.
"Alright!" Lin Qianxiao also responded loudly.
Bai Weiwei watched Lin Fan and Lin Qianxiao exchange lines, staying still, and quickly caught on to their plan!
After that, Lin Fan winked at the two won, then turned and headed towards the room, with the won following closely behind. After closing the door, Lin Fan cursed loudly, "Bold thief! If I catch you, I'll chop you into mince!" while walking towards the elevator.
However, when they reached the elevator, they didn't go up but instead hid in a corner by the wall!
"Will this work?" Bai Weiwei whispered.
"Who knows if it'll work? We'll find out by trying!" Lin Fan lazily replied, lighting a cigarette and leisurely exhaling smoke.
"Hmph! If I catch those thieves, I'll give them a good beating!" Bai Weiwei said viciously, clenching her fists.
Clap-clap-clap~
At this mont, Lin Fan's ear twitched as he heard faint footsteps, prompting him to gesture for silence. He then reversed the burning cigarette in his palm to extinguish it without leaving a trace of burn on his hand!
Next, Lin Fan cautiously peeked around the corner and indeed, saw a tall and a short youth appear. To his surprise, the two wore gray robes, with long hair coiled in a bun like traditional martial sect disciples!
"They're from the Martial Arts world," Lin Fan thought, taken aback!
Soon, the two youths arrived at Lin Fan's door. The taller one pulled out a slender wire and inserted it into the lock, skillfully manipulating it. With a crisp "click," the door opened!
The two youths, after ensuring no one was around, imdiately entered and shut the door, finally breathing a sigh of relief!
"Senior brother, where did that guy say the 'Sheepskin Scroll' was hidden?" the shorter youth asked.
"Under the bed! Damn, no wonder I couldn't find it earlier, it's hidden here." The taller youth cursed and quickly dropped to the floor beside the bed, carefully searching.
But under the bed, there wasn't even a speck of dust, let alone the 'Sheepskin Scroll.' This sight changed the taller youth's expression!
"Senior brother, did you find it?" the shorter youth asked.
"How is it not here? Could we have heard wrong? Junior, check the bed!" the taller youth imdiately instructed.
"Understood, senior brother!"
The shorter youth quickly jumped on the bed and searched every inch but found nothing, causing a sense of foreboding between the siblings!
"Move the bed!" the taller youth ordered.
The shorter youth nodded, gathered his strength, and slamd down on the bed. With a muffled "thud," the entire bed was knocked to the side, but the floor was spotless, void of the 'Sheepskin Scroll'!
"How is it not here? Is it not this bed?" the shorter youth questioned, puzzled.
"Not good! We've been deceived!" the taller youth suddenly exclaid in alarm!
"Gentlen, are you looking for this?"
At that mont, a lazy voice suddenly ca from behind the two youths!
Their faces changed drastically as they quickly turned to see Lin Fan leaning against the door with a cigarette between his fingers, while the other hand played with the captivating 'Sheepskin Scroll.' A teasing smile graced his lips!
"When did you co in!" the taller youth asked in astonishnt.
"Just now!" Lin Fan took a drag from his cigarette, smiled lightly, and said, "If you want the 'Sheepskin Scroll,' you could've just asked . Why ss up my room, leaving such a ss for
to clean up?"
"Hmph! Kid, I warn you to hand over the 'Sheepskin Scroll' imdiately!" the taller youth said in a deep voice.
"No problem, but... you'll need to give
a reasonable explanation!" Lin Fan shrugged with a smile.
"Hmph! This originally belonged to our sect uncle, stolen by you, you little thief. Today we will return it to its rightful owner!" the shorter youth shouted angrily.
"Return it to its rightful owner? Just you two?" Lin Fan shook his head, full of disdain!
Seeing this, the youths' faces turned cold. As top disciples of their sect, they had never been so disregarded, and murderous intent surged from their eyes unabated!
"Courting death!" the taller youth roared, lunging forward with several steps to stand before Lin Fan, transforming his hand into a blade to strike at Lin Fan's head, as if to split it open, producing a piercing whistle!
"Strength is good, but unfortunately, too slow!" Lin Fan smirked nonchalantly, sliding his foot as if on wheels, easily dodging the strike!
This sight left the taller youth stunned, as he had confidence in his own strength and speed, yet Lin Fan had effortlessly evaded him!
"Ah~"
The taller youth roared, turning to attack again, launching fists like missiles, one after another.
However, Lin Fan remained calm, tucking the 'Sheepskin Scroll' into his chest while holding a cigarette with one hand, using only the other to et the taller youth's flurry of punches.
The taller youth's fist speed was quick, yet Lin Fan's hand speed was twice as fast, easily neutralizing the blows. Their fists collided repeatedly with loud "thud" sounds like playing drums, jarringly harsh!
