Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language
Chapter 455: The Enemy is Dark and We Are Bright
Wanyuanfang is his territory and also the gambling house in Jiangnan City.
Logically speaking, a place like this should be very safe, but first Gu Chan’s white fox was stolen, and then his things were stolen. As the young master of this place, he naturally cannot escape blame.
Realizing the importance of the problem, Wan Peng quickly stood up, clasped his fists and saluted, saying, "Brother Gu, it was my negligence that led to the theft of your things. I will definitely send more personnel and strengthen patrols to ensure that such things will not happen again."
"It's good that you know. Let me tell you, if I lose something again, I will not only move out of here, but also take away all the money stored in your gambling house. Then I will see how much cash you have to give me." Gu Chan said coldly.
As Wan Peng listened, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Places like gambling houses have a lot of people coming and going every day, so they naturally need a lot of cash support. If Gu Chan really withdrew the cash from his gambling house, it would be very troublesome for him to go to the money house to cash the silver later.
After all, there will be another 30 million taels of silver coming later. No matter what, we can't lose Gu Chan, our big money saver, right?
So Wan Peng resolutely admitted his mistake, put on a smile and said, "Okay, I promise you, this will never happen again. Otherwise, when you leave, no matter how much silver you want to take with you, I will definitely find a way to get it for you."
"Just what you said is enough. Then sit down! Let's continue chatting about whether we have found any clues about the person who stole my things." Gu Chan said with a stiff face.
Wan Peng quickly sat down, put down everything he was doing, and took this matter seriously.
Gu Chan urged, "Just tell me!"
"My people did find some information, but it's a bit troublesome. I'm afraid you don't dare to touch this person!" Wan Peng said with a serious expression.
"What do you mean?" Gu Chan was confused.
Wan Peng whispered, "My people came to report this morning that the person who stole your things was a man wearing a black cape and a black mask. His nickname is Batman. He was the hero who robbed the rich and gave to the poor in the border and Zhongyuan City before. He was famous and loved by the people!"
"Ah? There is such a thing?" Gu Chan screamed in shock.
At this moment, she really had the urge to laugh and cry.
Batman is a fictional character she created. Later in Zhongyuan City, she authorized Wei Xing to take on the title of hero. Now, this title has brought her a lot of trouble. Where can you let her go to cry?
As for the news that Wan Peng's people had found out, she certainly didn't believe it. After all, Wei Xing had followed her to the Nifeng Valley before, and only returned to the city this morning.
Her imperial sword was stolen last night, and Wei Xing couldn't possibly use the clone technique! On the way back with her, someone else came back first, seriously injured Di Lin, and stole the imperial sword.
So to sum up, this Batman must be pretended to be someone else, and this person is extremely powerful, otherwise with Dillin's ability, he would not have been beaten so badly by him.
Wan Peng said confidently, "I trust my people. They will never get the wrong information. If you want to get back what you lost, I'm afraid you can only find this hero and have a good chat with him."
"Okay! Then you go do your thing, I'll go meet this Batman." Gu Chan said with a sneer.
"Then you go to Jiangnan Academy. My people said that they saw him enter the back door of Jiangnan Academy." Wan Peng reminded.
Gu Chan frowned and muttered, "Your people are so powerful? Can you find out where he is hiding?"
"A hero like that must be very powerful. I guess he deliberately leaked his whereabouts to my people, asked them to come back and report to me, and then led you over. As for why he led you over, I'm not sure." Wan Peng said shrewdly.
Gu Chan nodded without comment.
It was obvious that since the other party was well prepared, his whereabouts would not be easy to trace. Since he deliberately leaked his whereabouts, it must have seemed like he was trying to lure her into a trap.
In the situation where the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light, this is most likely a huge trap. If she goes over there recklessly, she might really step into the trap set by others in advance, leading to her own doom.
But the problem was that the Imperial Sword was so important that she had to get it back, so she had to make this trip.
Thinking of this, Gu Chan didn't want to bother about it anymore, and just said to Wan Peng, "Then you just have to pretend that nothing happened, and then strengthen the security measures of Wanyuanfang, and don't let something like this happen again, otherwise I will really beat you up to vent my anger, and it won't be as simple as just taking the silver and leaving."
"Don't worry, I'll take care of it. I swear, I will never let anything like this happen again." Wan Peng quickly raised his hand to make a promise.
Gu Chan nodded with satisfaction, then stood up and left.
"call……"
After she left, Wan Peng sat in the chair and breathed a sigh of relief.
It was really because the murderous aura emanating from Gu Chan just now was too strong, and it really made him feel a little breathless.
After Gu Chan left Wan Peng's room, she quickly returned to Di Lin's room.
At this time, Di Lin had fallen asleep on the bed, and his complexion had returned to normal. He was no longer dying as before. His life was finally saved with the help of the spirit beast's blood.
Yuan Jie sat on the edge of the bed, and finally there was a smile on her face.
Seeing Gu Chan coming back again, she was so scared that she quickly stood up and said, "Boss, he is better now. His life is saved."
"Nonsense, the blood of the spirit beast is so powerful, it would be strange if he could die. Don't just sit here. Go to Yingchun Tower in the north and ask Wei Xing to come and see me secretly at night." Gu Chan ordered coldly.
"Yes, boss." Yuan Jie lowered her head and responded obediently, like a child who had done something wrong.
Then she hurried away and quietly went to Yingchun Tower in the north.
Gu Chan sat down beside the bed and took Di Lin's pulse. After confirming that his blood and qi were stable and his body had regained vitality, she left with peace of mind and returned to her room to rest.
In the evening, just when Gu Chan was getting impatient waiting in the room, Yuan Jie finally came with Wei Xing.
When the two entered the room, Wei Xing was wearing a black hat that covered his face, so his face could not be seen clearly.
After walking to the table and sitting down, he took off his black bamboo hat and placed it on the table. Then he looked at Gu Chan who had a grim expression on her face and said, "Little Boss, isn't it just that the Imperial Sword was stolen? We just need to get it back. There's no need for you to look so stern!"
"You know nothing. The other party is obviously well prepared. I'm afraid this matter will be really troublesome." Gu Chan said unhappily.
After hearing what she said, Wei Xing quickly became serious and no longer dared to act so frivolous as he did just now.
