Zhao Yu followed the two thieves as they leaped over roofs and climbed over walls. When he saw them stop on the roof behind the Wei Residence, he stopped his own actions and observed the situation.
"Senior Brother, are you sure that thing is here?”One of the two thieves that Zhao Yu was following said to the man in black beside him as he observed the guards of the Wei Residence.
Zhao Yu, who was following behind them, was stunned for a moment. Although this person's voice was soft, it was crisp and pleasant to the ears, giving off a very comfortable feeling.
"One of them is actually a woman? This is interesting." Zhao Yu held his breath and continued eavesdropping.
"That's right. I've already asked around. The treasure that Wei Hua obtained a few days ago is hidden in this room. We have to act as soon as possible.”
One of them had a male voice, and it sounded rather immature. However, Zhao Yu felt that the tone was somewhat familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go down now.”The woman's voice once again made Zhao Yu's ears pregnant.
From their conversation, Zhao Yu was certain that their goal was the human-head-sized Night-Luminescent Pearl.
Without being discovered, Zhao Yu got closer, planning to wait for them to get their hands on him before he attacked them again.
Seeing that the woman was about to jump down, the man immediately pulled her back and said,
"Junior Sister, wait a moment. Wait a little longer. These guards will be replaced immediately. We will wait for them to leave before entering.”
The woman could only wait patiently.
Zhao Yu, who was following behind them, sighed in his heart. As expected of a professional. He even knew the time of the other party's shift change.
After a while, it was time to change shifts. The guards at the door reminded each other and left, while the two people quickly entered the house.
Seeing this, Zhao Yu quickly followed them in.
"Who is it?"
Hearing the commotion, the woman immediately looked behind her. Previously, Zhao Yu was able to follow them silently. Now that Zhao Yu had entered the house, he would naturally be noticed.
Zhao Yu had already thought of an excuse. He said in a deep voice,
"My goal is the same as yours, to find that treasure.”
"So you're also here..." Before the woman could finish, she was interrupted by the man beside her.
"Brother, you said you came to find treasures. How can I believe you?”
This question stunned Zhao Yu. Why would he need a reason to steal a priceless luminous pearl? Didn't everyone want this?
In that instant, Zhao Yu felt that this man was a little silly.
"Whether you believe it or not, I can only say that our goal is the same.”
The woman's eyes lit up as she sized up Zhao Yu, her eyes filled with admiration.
"I didn't expect you to be such a chivalrous person.”
Zhao Yu was even more confused. How did stealing become a chivalrous person? Were thieves all so thick-skinned?
Or did they steal the Night-Luminescent Pearls to sell them and distribute them to the poor?
At the thought of this, the image of the two of them in front of Zhao Yu instantly became bigger. He said righteously,
"I don't dare to be a chivalrous person. I'm just trying to find a way for some poor people to survive.”
They were now in the enemy camp, so it was best not to have a conflict with these two people, so they went along with what they said.
At most, he would be gentler when he got the Night-Luminescent Pearls, or steal more things to give to them.
The woman admired Zhao Yu more and more. If it wasn't for the fact that they were in the wrong place, she would have taken off her mask to get to know Zhao Yu.
"Senior brother, I don't think this brother is a bad person. The more people there are, the more power there is.”
The man had no choice but to agree. He felt that there was something wrong with the conversation just now, but the current situation did not allow him to think too much.
"In that case, I'll have to trouble you, brother. Please follow me.”
With that, the man turned around and led the way.
Zhao Yu secretly laughed. These two thieves were too naive to believe him.
How did such naivety survive in this chaotic world?
This house was considered big in the Wei Residence. It was divided into two halls. Zhao Yu and the rest were in the back hall.
The three of them tiptoed to the back hall. Zhao Yu looked at the two of them with a strange gaze.
The two of them looked jittery. No matter how one looked at it, they looked like they were thieves for the first time.
Were the requirements for being a thief so low these days?
Ali, who was safe and sound, arrived at the back hall. Then, Zhao Yu saw a woman sitting on the bed.
On the bedside cabinet, there was a ball-shaped object the size of a baby's head, emitting light under the illumination of the oil lamp.
Wasn't this the luminous pearl that Zhao Yu had been thinking about day and night?
The woman was dressed in sackcloth and tied up with hemp rope. There was something stuffed in her mouth so that she could not call for help.
The man came to the woman and asked in a deep voice,"Are you Old Man Li's daughter, Li Yao?”
Seeing that the man in black had actually said his name, the woman seemed to have seen hope. She nodded her head desperately.
The man seemed to heave a sigh of relief. He came to the woman's side and reached out to take out the cloth that was stuffed inside.
"We were entrusted by Old Man Li to save you. I'll untie you first.”
As the man was relieving himself, Zhao Yu finally realized that the two of them were not here to steal the Night-Luminescent Pearl, but to save someone.
No wonder Zhao Yu felt that there was something wrong with their conversation just now. They were chatting across servers.
The most important thing was that Zhao Yu was chatting with them.
This was awkward.
However, saving people was good. Since it was saving people, there was no conflict of interest between Zhao Yu and them. Zhao Yu did not need to " cheat " them.
"Thank you for saving my life."
The man shook his head and said," It's nothing. There's no need to thank me. We're not out of danger yet. Let's leave this place quickly." Brother, what do you think?"
"Of course, we have to run since we have saved her. However, we have so many people. We are too big of a target. Why don't we split up? You two take this girl and leave first. I'll be responsible for creating chaos and attracting their attention.”
Zhao Yu's goal was not to save them, but the Night-Luminescent Pearl beside the bed, so he had to send them away quickly.
However, the two of them misunderstood. They thought that Zhao Yu was going to cover their escape, so they immediately looked at Zhao Yu with admiration.
"Brother is really a righteous man."
Zhao Yu,"He's f * cking…"
