“The freighter will leave in two hours. If we go now, we can still make it.”
Without further ado, Xu Jiajia immediately set off. She took the address and ship number provided by the mole man and rushed over. Using the car provided by her friend, she activated the top-grade flying car mode and rushed to the dock as quickly as possible while ensuring her safety.
According to the ship number given by the mole man, Xu Jiajia quickly searched and found a cargo ship with a safe in the easternmost corner of the dock. After some coordination, the safe that was sent to the country was dragged out of the cabin and placed in front of Xu Jiajia.
Facing the safe, Xu Jiajia, who did not know how to open locks, was also in a dilemma. Fortunately, she was well connected. In the end, she was introduced to a lock-picking friend. She took the safe and drove north. After a long trek, she finally met a lock-picking expert.
“It’s not that easy to open this safe. The lock core is specially customized and there’s also a signal jammer. If you want to open it, it will take about seven hours to open this safe.”
Seven hours? Upon hearing that it would take such a long time, Xu Jiajia immediately frowned. She did not know if it would delay Su Yun’s time. “No problem. Don’t worry and open the lock boldly. I’ll wait here.”
“Okay.”
Seven hours later.
“Xu Jiajia, wake up. Xu Jiajia?
In a daze, Xu Jiajia, who was sleeping on the sofa, quickly woke up when she heard someone calling her. “Did you open the safe?”
“Yes, it’s open. Go over and take a look.”
“Alright, thank you!” As she thanked him, Xu Jiajia rushed to the safe. When she arrived at the front of the safe, its door had already been opened. Inside was a small square box.
To be on the safe side, Xu Jiajia took the disposable plastic gloves beside her and put them on. She carefully took out the small square box. After carefully observing that there was nothing wrong with its appearance, she gently opened the box.
The first time she used force, she still could not open it.
Xu Jiajia was also locked. After observing, she realized that there was nothing, so she exerted strength again and opened it this time. At first, it was a small gap. As the gap in the box gradually widened, Xu Jiajia’s vision began to be filled with gold.
After the box was completely opened, she revealed a surprised expression. The second piece of golden foil was lying quietly in the middle of the box, waiting for Xu Jiajia to pick it up. “It’s really not easy. I finally found it!”
Letting out a long breath, Xu Jiajia felt relieved. It was as if the heavy burden on her shoulders had been lifted. However, after relaxing, she became vigilant again. She took the golden foil out of the box and examined it carefully.
This was the most important thing. If it was fake, it would be a big problem.
She could not let extreme joy turn into sorrow. First, she checked the material. After confirming that there were no problems, she checked the patterns and symbols on the second piece of golden foil.
Although she did not know what these symbols meant, Xu Jiajia had seen the first piece of golden foil. Even if the symbols and patterns were different, the carving technique was the same.
Therefore, after careful comparison, Xu Jiajia confirmed that there was nothing wrong with this golden foil. Be it the texture, feel, patterns… it was all the same. Finally, after the ‘test’, Xu Jiajia could celebrate properly.
“Hard work pays off. I’ve finally found the second piece of golden foil! I didn’t
let Su Yun down.” At the thought of this, Xu Jiajia immediately realized
something. She immediately took out her phone and aimed it at the hard -won second piece of golden foil. She took a careful photo and sent it to Su Yun.
After coming down from the top of Mount Shengu, Su Yun returned to Mount Shengu Village without a word. Then, he came to his house with ease. He climbed over the wall and entered the courtyard. He stole a few clothes to dry on the corridor and ran.
After changing into a set of clean clothes, it was already late at night. It was no longer raining, and dawn was about an hour away.
Su Yun knew that the police must be searching for him everywhere. Therefore, he walked carefully on the way. Thankfully, with the white monkey’s guidance, he successfully left the range of Mount Shengu’s search without any effort.
Before Xu Jiajia replied, he could not act rashly. It was best to stay put. However, just as Su Yun was about to think about where to stop first, the phone in his pocket vibrated.
This phone naturally did not belong to him, and he was not afraid of being tracked. Pressing on her phone screen, Su Yun saw that it was a message from Xu Jiajia. After unlocking his phone, Su Yun saw a message from Xu Jiajia. It was a photo.
After clicking open and loading, the photo of the second golden foil immediately appeared in front of Su Yun!
“Golden foil!” At this moment, Su Yun was especially happy when he saw the second piece of golden foil. His body trembled, and his breathing could not help but quicken. “That’s great. I finally found it! It seems that the clues Charles provided are correct!”
Looking at the second piece of golden foil in the picture, Su Yun temporarily felt a sense of relief. “It’s not easy. It’s really not easy. I spent so much effort. Fortunately, I found the second piece of golden foil. My previous efforts were not in vain.”
With this in mind, Su Yun took out the first piece of golden foil from his pocket and carefully compared it with the second piece of golden foil in the picture. He knew that Xu Jiajia had definitely checked. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have sent it to him.
Through visual comparison, he did not find anything amiss. Holding the first piece of golden foil in her hand, Su Yun looked at the second piece of golden foil on his phone and felt a little emotional.
“Sigh! With this second piece of golden foil, I’ll hand it over to the country and explain things clearly. I think we can end these complicated matters.”
Su Yun knew very well that he was currently guilty of possessing a jade. However, as long as the treasure was handed over to the country, he would naturally be free from it.
The overseas forces had always wanted to obtain the golden foil. Although they didn’t know what secrets were hidden, it was something the country needed to consider. It had nothing to do with them.
As for the overseas factions, they would probably not look for him again. After all, the golden foil was no longer on him. They were not stupid enough to come to China to take revenge on him. After all, this was a forbidden area!
It was not so easy to get over it!
Moreover, the price they paid every time they attacked was probably not small. As an overseas faction, they should not be impulsive and waste their strength purely to take revenge on him. If they threw out the hot potato, it would be their business if the overseas forces wanted to snatch it back.
He had to stay out of it. Otherwise, it would be too dangerous!
Of course, no one could say for sure what the exact situation would be, but if it could increase the safety ratio, it had to be done.
Just as Su Yun was thinking, Xu Jiajia sent a second message.
[I’m afraid it’s inconvenient for me to go to your current area. Let’s make an appointment at another place, then I’ll give you the second piece of golden foil?]
Xu Jiajia’s considerations were very good. Su Yun also agreed with Xu Jiajia’s actions, so he replied,
[Alright, I’ll choose Hibiscus City. It’s a place closer to the municipal bureau. I’ll look for the official department immediately after I obtain the golden foil.]
On the other side, after receiving Su Yun’s reply, Xu Jiajia immediately found a safe address and sent it to Su Yun.
In the end, Xu Jiajia added.
[Can you come over in your current situation? Do you need help?]
A minute later, Su Yun sent a message back.
[No problem. I have an idea.]
After receiving Su Yun’s definite reply, Xu Jiajia was relieved. Then, she immediately packed up the second piece of golden foil. After thanking the lockpicker, she set off for Hibiscus City.
On the other side, Su Yun did not delay either. He could not go home to visit his parents for the time being. It was most important to obtain the golden foil first before handing over the cultural relics and national treasures to the country!
He’s finally returning to Hibiscus City..
