Chapter 26: The Master Thief Makes His Move (2)
In the main house, Shen Feng's face was as black as a pot bottom.
The second generation led by Shen Ye and the third generation led by Shen Yifeng each had a different expression.
Without a doubt, as the most important member of the Vermilion Bird family, apart from Shen Feng, the master of the house, all the others' pouches were completely empty, not to mention money, even some golden utensils in their rooms also disappeared.
The worst of all was Shen Jing.
In order to have a "deeper exchange" with many beauties, Shen Jingping often buys pearls and precious stones. Just the other day, he had just won an auction for a batch of high-quality gems from a certain jeweler. However, early this morning, when he was about to present those jewels to his beloved, all that was left in the jewelry box was emptiness...
The most outrageous thing!
That scoundrel actually didn't even spare a few small gems on the jewelry box, and took them all away!
Shen Jing didn't dare to calculate his losses this time. He only knew that in the next few months, he would have to bid farewell to his beauties...
Since the establishment of the Zhuque dynasty, we have never suffered such a heavy loss as today!
Although the money lost is just a drop in the bucket for the Zhuque family, what's infuriating is the thief's attitude!
In one night, the entire Zhuque family's important members were robbed, and surprisingly, no one discovered it throughout the whole process. That person quietly stole such a large sum of money from the Zhuque family without making a sound, which is simply a contempt for the dignity of the Zhuque family!
From economic issues to dignity issues, Shen Feng can't just let it go like this anymore.
"You bunch of good-for-nothings, you were actually sneaked into the house and didn't even know it!" Shen Feng was furious. Although the Zhu Que family had not been able to awaken the Zhu Que for a hundred years, their descendants' strength had not disgraced the family name.
This is great, I just slept and was stolen clean by someone breaking in. Are these people stupid? They didn't even feel anything.
"Dad... this is not our fault, that person must have been well-prepared and their skills are absolutely comparable to the leader of the Silver Hand gang. Even Second Brother didn't notice, which shows how good that person's skills are." Shen Jing explained with a bitter face as the one who suffered the greatest loss.
Shen Jing mentioned the Silver Hand, Shen Feng's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
The Silver Hand is a notorious gang of thieves on the Bright Continent, and it's said that every member has exceptional thieving skills. Among them, the leader of the Silver Hand is the most skilled, with rumors saying that anything he sets his eyes on, he can steal without fail.
"Could it be that the Silver Hand's people..." Shen Yifeng muttered, having also suffered a loss.
"It's impossible." Shen Feng waved his hand and said, "The Silver Hand is far away in the God Wind Alliance. Even if some of its members are mixed in the Long Xuan Empire, they are just small fish that can't get on stage, and it's fundamentally impossible for them to evade the eyes and ears of so many people and commit theft."
"Isn't he the leader of the Silver Hand?" Shen Yue asked.
Shen Feng shook his head.
"That person may be arrogant, but he wouldn't dare to be so presumptuous as to take on the Dragon Emperor Empire and our Vermilion Bird Clan. Moreover, given his habits, whenever he targets someone with a reputation, he will always send out advance notice."
Ruling out the possibility of Silver Hand, everyone was even more bewildered. Is there still a thief with superior stealing skills in this world who hasn't been received by Silver Hand?
