The boss is back and she doesn’t pretend to be a fake daughter anymore

Chapter 550 The little thief who steals jade materials

When Jiang Han woke up the next morning, he felt extremely tired.

Last night, he seemed to hear constant clicking noises in his ears.

It's like a dream, but not quite.

He planned to ask the butler later when he was having dinner. Passing by a shelf with jade pieces, he subconsciously glanced at it and then paused.

Turning his head, Jiang Han looked at the jade pieces on the shelf and the jade materials placed around them. After a long while, he couldn't help but mutter,

"Did I remember it wrong?"

Why do you feel like there is a piece of jade missing around Bixi?

Jiang Han brought back several pieces of jade yesterday and placed them next to Bixi in different sizes. He couldn't remember exactly how many pieces he put.

Without thinking much, he turned and went to the bathroom to wash up.

Freshman year courses are relatively intensive. Although he lives at home these days, he cannot miss the classes he should attend.

After changing clothes and hurried downstairs, after breakfast, Jiang Han went straight to school.

Before going to bed at night, he thought about what Jiang Xuxu said about jade materials that would become dim if their spiritual energy was absorbed, and he made a special observation.

Jiang Han found that every piece of jade was the same as the one he had obtained before, so Jiang Han went to sleep with peace of mind.

When he woke up on the third day, it was obvious that something was wrong.

The jade materials he placed around Bixi were missing.

Because he made a special observation before going to bed last night, Jiang Han was extremely sure and certain that this time it was not his mistake, the jade material was really missing!

His first reaction was——

"Is there a thief?"

But when I think about it, I think it’s impossible.

Not to mention the security level of the Jiang family, ordinary thieves would be caught without even breaking into the Jiang family's courtyard wall, let alone entering the home.

That's the mole.

But these bodyguards at home, all of them are carefully selected, and logically speaking, it is impossible for them to do such a thing.

Even if there really is someone with dirty hands and feet, why would they steal a piece of jade from grandpa if he doesn’t take away so many antique treasures from his collection room?

And the Bixi ornaments are right next to them. Isn’t this more expensive than uncarved jade?

However, it may also be that the other party thinks that the jade materials in his house are inconspicuous and there are many, and if one or two pieces are missing, they probably will not be discovered.

Unfortunately...that person guessed wrong!

Jiang Han sneered in his heart and decided to get rid of this thief.

He first went out and checked last night's surveillance as if nothing had happened.

According to his guess, if there is really a thief in the house, it can only be from last night to this morning.

Unfortunately, he was disappointed with the result.

The surveillance did not capture anyone suspicious entering his room.

Jiang Han suspected that the monitoring had been tampered with.

Without holding on to the surveillance camera, Jiang Han simply turned around and walked out. When he came back, he had a small camera in his hand.

Jiang Han placed the camera in a hidden place facing the shelf, turned on the abnormal recording mode, and fell asleep peacefully.

Although he felt that even if there was a thief at home, he probably wouldn't steal from him three times in a row.

After all, the risk of being caught if you enter his house and steal something is quite high.

However, it turns out that he still misjudged the boldness of the "thief"!

When he got up the next day, he immediately checked the number of jade materials on the shelf.

It turned out that there was another piece missing!

Jiang Han's face darkened, and he quickly opened his phone to check the surveillance video.

As a result, the cell phone was turned on, and the surveillance last night was dark, as if it was disturbed, and nothing was captured.

Jiang Han's heart sank for a moment.

He didn't suspect that the camera was malfunctioning, he just felt that something was not right.

Thanks to a cousin at home who is engaged in metaphysics, Jiang Han now also has some knowledge of the supernatural.

Not to mention the distance, when Jiang Xuxu was recording a program and met a weasel in the mountains, it was said that the live broadcast signal was suddenly interrupted by interference.

His current situation is so similar to hers at that time.

When Jiang Han thought of this possibility, he didn't dare to stay in this room anymore.

He didn't forget that Lu Xuexi stuffed the baby's bloody clothes into the mezzanine at the head of his bed.

In this situation, who knows if Lu Xuexi has stuffed something strange into his room.

Thinking of this possibility, Jiang Han went to find Jiang Xuxu without hesitation.

Soon he caught Jiang Xuxu at the entrance of the first floor who was about to go out.

Jiang Xuxu stood at the entrance and listened to him talk solemnly about the jade material he had lost and the camera that had lost its signal. However, his face was very calm and he only asked,

"You suspect that there is something unclean in your house. Did the jade talisman I gave you react?"

After Jiang Han was reminded by her, he hurriedly pulled out the protective jade plaque with the help of a red rope from his chest.

The jade plaque is as clear and clean as before.

"It's not responding."

Not only now, but also in the past few nights, he didn't notice anything wrong with the jade card.

You know, except for occasionally taking off this jade sign when taking a shower, he always wears it when sleeping.

Since the jade sign didn't respond, that's...

"Did I get distracted?"

Jiang Han frowned, really doubting himself for a moment.

Jiang Xuxu glanced at him and suddenly narrowed her almond-shaped eyes, "That's not necessarily the case."

Seeing his look, she continued softly,

"In addition to ghosts and monsters, it could be something else."

Jiang Xuxu asked for details carefully and had a vague guess in her mind.

Without telling Jiang Han, Jiang Xuxu only said,

"If according to what you said, it will come back to steal jade at night, then we will just wait together tonight."

Jiang Han secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard her words implying that she was willing to take care of this matter, and then quickly realized,

"At night? Why don't you go up and take a look now?"

"Don't worry, wait until I get back."

Jiang Xuxu refused very simply, and she really didn't detect anything wrong from Jiang Han.

After all, if a monster really got into this house, she wasn't dead.

Jiang Han watched Jiang Xuxu go out, and then watched her get into a familiar Maybach parked outside the gate.

Jiang Han:......

As a metaphysician but still thinking about falling in love, isn't she a bit neglectful of her job?

Jiang Xuxu didn't care what Jiang Han thought. After getting in the car, she said hello to Chu Beihe who was in the back seat of the car.

Not only did he fail to get points last time, but he also failed to achieve the planned merit gain, so Jiang Xuxu took on another mission.

This mission is rather special.

Because the person asking for help is a child.

The child first posted on the Internet that his parents had become a little strange recently, and he suspected that they were not his parents.

Netizens didn't take it seriously at first, because they could see several pretentious posts like this one a day, and some even teased the guy for telling stories that were confusing and had a lot of typos.

As a result, the child directly took a video and posted it, and netizens realized that it was really a child.

An employee of the Security Bureau responsible for screening paranormal incidents on the Internet found that the child did have a slight yin energy, so he issued a task on spiritual matters.

Following the child's IP address, I found it was a bungalow in an alley in the old city.

Because it was the weekend, when Jiang Xuxu and Chu Beihe arrived, they happened to see the child who posted the message playing at the entrance of the alley.

Looking from a distance, one can indeed see that there is a very faint yin energy lingering around the child.

Before the two of them walked over, they saw the door of the nearby room open, and a woman who must be the child's mother came out and greeted the child with a smile.

The moment Jiang Xuxu saw the woman, her eyes narrowed slightly.

I saw that the woman was covered in yin energy, and she was visibly possessed.
