"Ha …"
Xiao Zhengyi, who was driving, yawned loudly.
"Senior, did you not sleep well last night?" Fang Xiaoqing couldn't help but ask curiously.
"More or less."
Taking advantage of the red light, Xiao Zhengyi wiped his eyes with his free hand.
Although he had asked Xu Shenxing to give him protection, recently, because of the increasingly rich spiritual energy in the house, it had become more chaotic.
Other things aside, Xiao Zhengyi would lean on the sofa in front of him every day when he came home. Then it would twist its body like a huge caterpillar and ask in a low and rough voice, "Master, do you want to eat first, take a bath first, or fuck me first?" While making poor Xiao Zhengyi feel nauseous, he regretted buying this fake leather sofa more than once.
Thanks to them, Xiao Zhengyi hadn't slept well for several days.
"I heard that drinking a glass of milk before going to bed can improve the quality of your sleep."
The girl kindly suggested.
"Is that so …" Xiao Zhengyi yawned again and answered casually.
In his current situation, sleeping pills might be more effective than milk.
She found that Xiao Zhengyi didn't seem to want to talk about this topic, so Fang Xiaoqing, who was beginning to understand the situation, tactfully changed the topic. "Speaking of which, are we going to the city museum now? What's the job this time? "
"Some time ago, there was an exhibition in Fusang, and it seemed to be quite a big deal. There was a special exhibition of national treasures. The people at the top felt that 'Huaxia is a great country with a history of five thousand years', 'Eat my socialist money attack', 'Oh, this is good for political achievements', and so on. They also organized a traveling exhibition, and the current stop is Jiang Jin."
Xiao Zhengyi cheered up a little and explained to the girl, "Because the exhibition includes some exhibits that may be supernatural objects, our Special Case Investigation Team was asked to cooperate with the security personnel."
"What about the case we were investigating before?"
Fang Xiaoqing frowned and asked.
Before this sudden job, the members of the Special Case Investigation Team, mainly her and Xiao Zhengyi, were investigating a missing person case.
At first, they thought it was just some problems left over from the previous serial kidnapping case, but during the investigation, other victims appeared.
Obviously, this was a new case.
Unfortunately, without Xu Shenxing, Xiao Zhengyi and the others not only couldn't contact the Earth God to seek clues, but even the investigation was difficult to carry out smoothly. It didn't take long for them to reach a dead end.
It was not easy to find some clues, but at this juncture, they were transferred to guard the exhibition by the higher-ups. Naturally, Fang Xiaoqing felt very angry.
"I heard that the case is, the like, it was a normal human crime, and it had nothing to do with the supernatural."
"What," said Xiao Zhengyi, "And we really didn't find anything supernatural in the case,"
"I know that too, but I just feel very unhappy!" Fang Xiaoqing was still a little indignant when she talked about it.
"This is society, young lady."
"Senior, you're not much older than me …"
"I just have a tender face, but I'm actually quite old, right?"
"But I still don't have a girlfriend."
"…"
Life is hard.
Xiao Zhengyi's face was full of tears.
— — Dividing line — —
When they arrived at the City Museum, Xu Feng and Antares were already there, talking to an old man.
"Oh, you're finally here." After seeing Xiao Zhengyi and the others arrive, Xu Feng waved to them. "This is the curator of the City Museum, a famous historian in Jiang Jin, Mr. Yuan Yuzhuang."
"Hello, Mr. Yuan." Xiao Zhengyi and Fang Xiaoqing hurriedly greeted him.
However, the old man just nodded and turned his gaze back to Xu Feng.
"That's it, Team Leader Xu. I still have a charity auction to attend, so I won't chat with you anymore."
After saying that, he left in the car, not giving Xu Feng and the others any chance to talk.
"Team Leader, how did I offend Mr. Yuan?" Xiao Zhengyi scratched his head, feeling that the old man didn't seem to like him.
"It's not that you offended Mr. Yuan, but that old man doesn't like our Special Case Investigation Team. It's said that because he's an extremely firm materialist, he has never seen any supernatural phenomenon in his life, so he doesn't believe that there is such a supernatural power in the world. Therefore, in his eyes, we're almost the same as scammers. "
Xu Feng didn't care about this.
As a member of the Super Administrative Office, he had seen many people who had the same understanding as Mr. Yuan.
"In short, let's go take a look at the things we're mainly protecting this time."
With that, Xu Feng led the two of them into the museum, leaving only Antares, who was playing "Capsule Monster: Go" on his phone, guarding the door.
As a native of Jiang Jin, Xiao Zhengyi had naturally been to the city museum before.
However, there were obvious changes in the museum now. The most eye-catching thing was that the armillary sphere that originally stood in the middle of the museum had been replaced with a huge stone, and there was a sword stuck in the stone.
The style of the sword was somewhat similar to the Yue Wang Sword, but the material used seemed to be more exquisite. It looked shiny and didn't feel like an antique at all.
A young girl was placing a nameplate on the stone.
Xiao Zhengyi glanced at it and found that the words "Yuanrong Sword" were written on it, but the description below was too small to read clearly.
However, at this time, the girl who was placing the nameplate and suspected to be a staff member also noticed Xiao Zhengyi and the others.
"Ah, Team Leader Xu, hello … These two are?" She looked at Xiao Zhengyi and Fang Xiaoqing behind Xu Feng in confusion.
"They are members of our group. This guy is called Xiao Zhengyi. If there's any physical work, just leave it to him. And this is Fang Xiaoqing. You guys are about the same age, so you can interact more."
Xu Feng introduced them as if they were familiar with each other, then said to Xiao Zhengyi and the others, "This is the main person in charge of this exhibition, Miss Yuan Shiyu."
After everyone got to know each other, they chatted about various issues. Not long after, the topic of conversation turned to the Yuanrong Sword.
"Ah, that's a lie …" Yuan Shiyu waved her hand. "The Yuanrong Sword was lost in the Han Dynasty. This is an ancient sword that was unearthed not long ago. After carbon-14 identification, this thing was at the earliest an item from the Republic of China. It should be an imitation of the Yuanrong Sword in ancient books, so it's not worth much. However, it's true that this thing can't be pulled out. We even used some machinery before, but we couldn't get it out of the stone. In the end, a member of the working group proposed to put it in the exhibition to attract popularity. "
The way to attract popularity was very simple. It was to let the tourists pull this thing out themselves. If they pulled it out, the sword would be given to that person.
In the previous exhibition, many tourists were very interested in this. It was just that no one could pull it out.
"Let me ask, how much is the so-called 'not worth much'?" Xu Feng suddenly asked.
"The market price is about ten thousand to thirty thousand."
Yuan Shiyu didn't understand and answered.
"Justice, remember not to tell your friend about this." Xu Feng touched his forehead and sighed.
"… Ah."
Xiao Zhengyi naturally understood what Xu Feng meant. If Xu Shenxing knew about this, he would probably immediately come over to pull the sword out. Even if he really couldn't pull it out, according to that guy's temper, he would probably directly break the stone in half or something …
But then Xiao Zhengyi heard another thing from Xu Feng's words.
"Boss, are you saying that Old Xu is coming back?"
"Yes, it's said that Fu Sang's Yin Yang Liao is now holding a fireworks festival to celebrate …"
"…"
What on earth did that guy do in Fu Sang?
"By the way, Mr. Xiao Zhengyi, do you want to give it a try?" Yuan Shiyu pointed at the sword on the stone and invited Xiao Zhengyi.
"Boss, have you tried?" Xiao Zhengyi asked Xu Feng.
"I tried, but I couldn't pull it out. This thing is a bit strange." Xu Feng frowned but didn't say much.
This made Xiao Zhengyi a little nervous, but he also had the impulse to give it a try.
In the end, he felt that Xu Feng was there and nothing would happen, so he boldly came to the stone, held the hilt with both hands, and carefully lifted it.
Maybe there was a slight deviation in the strength, but Xiao Zhengyi only felt that his hands were lighter. It was as if he had broken a plastic foam board from the hilt.
"Ah …"
A treasured sword that was worth tens of thousands of dollars was broken into two halves in front of everyone's eyes … Alright, not counting Xiao Zhengyi himself, there were only three people present.
