Chapter 421: 421

HuangArt Advanced Studies Student Dormitory .

Nanfeng, Yan Biao and Zuo Yu were all at Fang Zhao’s dormitory .

Fang Zhao had already told them about the thieves’ visit to his Yanzhou house and had contacted Silver Wing . Silver Wing knew how to handle this since they were experienced in these matters . And, with Fang Zhao’s status, the company didn’t dare be negligent . Fang Zhao believed that he would get a reply shortly .

It would also take quite a while for Fang Zhao to go home . Fortunately, there hadn’t been any classified documents or shameful things left there, so he didn’t need to worry about the outcome .

Silver Wing’s personnel had asked Fang Zhao whether he would like the matter to be handled in secret or openly . “In secret” meant that Silver Wing would privately investigate while “openly” meant contacting the police .

Fang Zhao chose “openly” .

Of course, regardless of whichever choice was taken, it would still be conducted in a discreet manner as Fang Zhao was a public figure .

Currently, Nanfeng couldn’t sit still, and his face was pale . Luckily, Fang Zhao didn’t have any incriminating stuff left in the house so there was no need to worry about secret news being leaked but… eighty million!

There was a sea slug valued at eighty million inside the apartment!

The most expensive item in the entire house!

Would an experienced thief miss it?!

Even those limited edition gaming helmets added up couldn’t match up to the sea slug’s value! Perhaps the thief had broken in specifically to steal the sea slug!

Nanfeng sorely regretted his decision . Indeed, this expensive item should have been brought along all the time! Previously, when Fang Zhao had brought it to the dormitory, he had only paid attention to it at the start before his focus had turned to Curly Hair . After all, Curly Hair was worth two hundred million, and with his military merits, Curly Hair’s hidden value was even greater . But, this didn’t mean that he didn’t have to cherish the eighty million!

Nanfeng was already preparing himself for the eventuality of the sea slug being stolen . He consoled himself by thinking, Luckily Curly Hair is always by Fang Zhao’s side .

Turning his head, Nanfeng saw Curly Hair lying listlessly at Fang Zhao’s side . Nanfeng took a closer look and was startled .

“Boss, why is Curly Hair crying?!”

Yan Biao and Zuo Yu also looked over . They hadn’t noticed it previously, but after hearing what Nanfeng had said, they now noticed that Curly Hair’s face had obvious tear stains as though he had been crying .

“Dogs cry too?” Yan Biao was curious .

Despite having been Fang Zhao’s bodyguard for so long, he had never seen Curly Hair cry before . He had never kept a dog before and didn’t really pay much attention to pets . He really didn’t know that dogs could cry .

“Of course dogs cry . An old comrade of mine had a dog that liked to cry . It would cry whenever it got scolded . “

Crying whenever it got scolded?

Nanfeng and the other two glanced at the expressionless Fang Zhao who had remained silent up till now before looking at the listless Curly Hair…

Was this because of a scolding from Fang Zhao?

Sensing the gaze of those three, Fang Zhao glanced at Curly Hair and said, “He got upset and cried when he heard that his home was broken into . “

“Oh, so that was the case . “

“Understood, understood . “

“I nearly shed tears when I learnt about it too . “

The trio nodded their heads simultaneously, but deep down they didn’t think this way . What did Curly Hair know? He was surely scolded by boss! They reckoned that Fang Zhao had given Curly Hair a fierce scolding before they arrived here . Or, perhaps, Fang Zhao had vented his anger from learning that his place was broken into on Curly Hair?

Fang Zhao wasn’t in any mood to care about what the trio were thinking . Even the matter of the break-in at his house was secondary . Right now, what was being considered most in his mind was still Curly Hair .

This dog spoke!

Then, Fang Zhao discovered that this dog seemed like he didn’t realize that he had opened his mouth and spoken .

Just like the previous time when he had subconsciously hummed along to the game background music, Curly Hair wasn’t aware that he had spoken human language . Perhaps his attention was focused on his three gaming consoles that were stolen… No, those are my gaming consoles . When did they become his?

Fang Zhao frowned and sized up Curly Hair on the ground beside him . Before calling the trio over, Fang Zhao had told Curly Hair that he was forbidden from making a sound . It would be a problem if others heard him speaking human language .

Curly Hair really hadn’t made a single sound, but from what he saw, if the gaming helmets were really stolen, he would really cry once more .

It was reasonable to say that those with the ability to bypass and deactivate the security and surveillance systems would very likely be able to steal everything and retreat before the police arrived .

On the trip to Whale Island, Curly Hair hadn’t learnt much, but he had learnt to cry .

Fang Zhao had also asked Curly Hair how he knew that there was a break-in at home .

Curly Hair wasn’t able to explain . To be precise, he couldn’t say it clearly . The pronunciation had been very weird, like a kid who hadn’t learned how to speak yet . The only two sentences that had been somewhat clear were “Fang Zhao” and “My game console has been stolen” . Those had been blurted out anxiously .

After that, through the dormitory’s gaming helmet and pop-up screen, Curly Hair had typed a few key words in the dialog box so Fang Zhao could roughly guess what he meant .

How did Curly Hair know there was someone stealing the gaming helmets?

Because he had bound himself to the display cabinet where the gaming helmet was stored!

Using his own method! And it couldn’t be easily discovered!

As for how he had established such a connection, and how he knew this method…

For Curly Hair, he had just suddenly discovered how to do it! Using it was just as easy as eating and drinking . It was just like the innate ability of a baby to drink milk! However, it was still somewhat different because it wasn’t innate for Curly Hair . He hadn’t even aware of it until the day he had stared at the display cabinet . As he stared and stared, he had developed a feeling that it had been bound to him .

In short, Curly Hair couldn’t explain it .

While Fang Zhao was mulling over the issue with Curly Hair, the reply from Yanzhou finally came .

Silver Wing had established a small temporary team to handle this matter immediately after receiving Fang Zhao’s call . The one who contacted Fang Zhao was the leader of this small team . He had also been the one to inform the police .

“Nothing should have been stolen . The two intruders were also apprehended, but the situation is a little problematic . ” The team leader watched as two stretchers were loaded into an emergency flying transport . “When we arrived, the two were lying on the ground with their entire bodies considerably swollen…”

“Their identities have already been confirmed . Those two are on the police’s A-grade wanted list . They are suspected to be poisoned and are in critical condition . Emergency treatment had to be administered immediately . Any longer and we would have to contact forensics…”

“There is no way of keeping this matter under wraps anymore . It’s best if you come over tomorrow . You might be required to cooperate with the investigation . “

Upon hearing this, Fang Zhao revealed a strange facial expression . “Alright, I got it . “

The team leader paused before lowering his voice . “… Do you hide any dangerous drugs in your home?”

“No,” Fang Zhao replied .

The other party asked another question before ending the call .

After hanging up, Nanfeng asked anxiously, “How is it? Was the sea slug stolen?”

“No, it was in its tank when the police arrived . “

Nanfeng heaved a sigh of relief and then asked without any hope, “Were the thieves caught?”

“They were apprehended and are being rescued,” Fang Zhao replied .

The trio: “???” Rescue?

Curly Hair was whimpering at the side . Fang Zhao cast a glance at him and said, “The gaming helmets and other valuable items weren’t taken . Nothing was stolen . “

Fang Zhao got Zuo Yu and Yan Biao to head over to Qi’an City first . He would return after the end of tomorrow’s classes .

Currently in Yanzhou’s Qi’an City .

The leader of the Silver Wing team handling Fang Zhao’s matter had tightly furrowed brows . He was busy contacting the hospital, trying his best to find out exactly what toxins those two suffered from and how they had become poisoned . At the same time, he was also trying to guess exactly what Fang Zhao kept hidden in his home .

He reckoned that Fang Zhao surely was hiding something . Perhaps he even had some prohibited items that he wasn’t willing to reveal . Since Fang Zhao had chosen to handle this openly, it probably didn’t involve sex, gambling or drugs . However, Fang Zhao had black street history . The in-charge was worried that Fang Zhao perhaps was trafficking other prohibited medications . These sorts of highly toxic drugs weren’t easy to deal with .

“Sigh, how troublesome . “

The matter had been expected to be wrapped up quickly and quietly, yet it had now turned out this way . Silver Wing simply had no way of keeping this matter under wraps in the short term, and the identities of those two intruders meant that this matter wouldn’t be set aside lightly .

In the same building a few floors lower, a certain Internet personality had started his live stream . Against the backdrop of the night sky, he was artistically dramatizing and entertaining his viewers . He was totally absorbed in it when an emergency flying transport zipped past rapidly with its flickering and noisy siren .

The Internet personality stopped his exposition and aimed his camera upwards . “Seems like the penthouse apartment has some issue . I wonder what happened… Eh? There are police too? It isn’t some malicious case, is it? How scary . “

As he was speaking, he received a push notification from a media outlet he followed . He opened the notification, which was a news item with a photograph of the top floor penthouse apartment . It had been taken by an entertainment reporter from another building, so the angle was different . But a few uniformed policemen and the emergency flying transport that was landing could be made out in the photograph .

When he continued to scroll down the article and saw the apartment owner, the Internet personality was shocked .

His first reaction: What the f*ck! Fang Zhao lives above me?!

His second reaction: Something big happened!

There were police and an emergency flying transport . How could it be a small matter?!

If it involved anyone else, everyone would just treat it as tonight’s news, and it would pass after seeing and discussing it . But the one involved now was a celebrity! A celebrity famous in all twelve continents of the world! He had even appeared on the news quite recently .

Live stream viewers also started stirring up the news immediately when they heard what was being said . There weren’t just viewers from Yanzhou but other continents as well .

“Something happened in Fang Zhao’s house?”

“It’s been verified . Two Yanzhou journalists have already posted this news on social media platforms!”

The eyes of that Internet personality widened as he saw the number of online viewers increasing exponentially . He excitedly browsed a few more web pages and platforms . “For the time being, three entertainment reporters have claimed that the one staying in the top floor penthouse is Fang Zhao . It shouldn’t be wrong then, but we still don’t know exactly what happened in Fang Zhao’s house . It is probably serious… Now, Qi’an City entertainment reporters are simply like flies that have caught the scent of shi… Cough, bears that have smelled honey and started digging for the truth! I will continue paying attention to this… I wonder if I can head up for a look…”

“110 (Police Hotline) + 120 (Emergency Hotline) = Serious incident”

“110+120+Celebrity? Furthermore, it’s one of Yanzhou’s most resplendent stars in the past two years?”

Netizens couldn’t be serious about it . Besides Fang Zhao fans, the majority of others that focused on this were doing so purely to join in the excitement .

How curious!

That was the Fang Zhao who had been hotly discussed some time back! A genius artist in the eyes of many! Fiery Bird’s handpicked endorser for their new products! A young role model who was showered by praises from various continents’ authoritative publications and official military media outlets!

Negative news has finally emerged?!

Five minutes later, someone in Huangzhou verified that Fang Zhao was in HuangArt . Two hours later, HuangArt students saw Fang Zhao in class . He could not have been in Yanzhou .

Then, who exactly was currently living in Fang Zhao’s apartment?

A relative? Friend? Or…

Nanfeng’s face turned dark as he explored all the various imaginative guesses .

“Boss, do you want to go online and release an explanation?”

Nanfeng showed the recent push notifications from entertainment news sources to Fang Zhao . There were already four bold headlines from media outlets that had been sent out in succession concerning Fang Zhao——
