Chapter 61 Coral Case

Guan Zheng congratulated Li Wei and finally sat down. When he took his second cup of tea, he suddenly screamed loudly again!

"You! Your...mysterious skill is also at the ninth level of the mysterious ladder...middle stage?!"

Guan Zheng looked at Li Yun, his eyes wide open, and he was so surprised that he stuttered a bit.

In one day, I saw two warriors at the ninth level of the Mysterious Ladder Realm, and each one was more amazing than the other. They were father and son. Guan Zheng, a man who had experienced many hardships for a long time, could not control his emotions.

"Hehe, Uncle Guan, it's exactly what you said, but it's not a big deal." Li Yun said with a smile.

"It's not a big deal?! No, it's a big deal! A big deal!" Guan Zheng even said a little horrified.

Suddenly, he seemed to remember something and murmured: "Li Yun, it turns out you are that Li Yun! The person who defeated the treacherous schemes of South Vietnam and Xirong and defeated Ruan Yingxiong with one strike is you! No wonder, no wonder, only you, Only then is it possible to reach such a state at such a young age.”

"Haha, Director, you finally got the right number!" Li Wei said with a proud smile.

"Hey, Deputy Secretary Li, you have a son like Li Yun, everything is worth it! You really make me envious!"

"Thank you for the compliment, Director! However, my son is still young, so we can't praise him all the time, lest he become upset."

"What are you afraid of? Even the likes of us will never be able to catch up with his achievements. If we don't praise such people, then who should we praise?!"

"Haha! Director, I just saw Zhao Yu going out in a hurry and not reminiscing about old times together. Could there be some major case happening?" Li Wei quickly changed the subject.

When Guan Zheng heard this, he got what he wanted.

This matter has been bothering him today, and when he was looking for someone to talk to, Li Wei and his son came over.

"Yes, this case is quite strange."

"Director, why don't you come and listen."

"The 18th of this month is the 60th birthday of the Holy One, which is three days later. People from all over the world have come to pay tribute and celebrate the birthday. The surrounding Dongchang Empire, Beidi Empire, Xirong Empire, and Nanyue Empire also sent their respective envoys. However, last night, , a theft case occurred in the posthouse where the Dongchang Empire’s envoy stayed, and a gift they brought this time disappeared mysteriously. Zhao Yu went to check today, but could not find any clues as to how the birthday gift was transported I don’t even know if I’m leaving.”

"I see. Even Zhao Yu can't find out, which is a bit puzzling." Li Wei said.

"Exactly. Therefore, now we can only ask various government agencies to assist in the investigation and send out posters to solicit clues. Zhao Yu just went to handle this matter." Guan Zheng sighed.

Li Wei looked at Li Yun, then turned to Guan Zheng, smiled and asked, "I wonder what kind of gift that gift is?"

"I heard that it is an undersea fire coral that is nine feet high. It is extremely rare. It was obtained by the Dongchang Empire from the bottom of the East China Sea. However, where the birthday gifts are stored, there are people outside guarding them day and night, but when the orifices were stolen, they did not notice. I don't know. So I suspect there may be a traitor among them. However, Zhao Yu came to report just now. According to his observation, it doesn't seem to be the work of a traitor."

Li Wei fell into deep thought. This matter was indeed a bit tricky.

Suddenly he remembered the purpose of his trip, so he smiled and said: "Director, I came here today. In addition to seeing you, I also want to see if anyone has come to clean up the scrap yard of our Xingtian Division?"

"Scrapyard?! Hey, the piles are getting higher and higher now, which has seriously affected our environment. It would be great if someone came to clean it up!" Guan Zhengdao.

"Haha, the child can complete this task. He needs some scrap materials for an experiment recently. Why don't we let him go to the site to see it."

"Great! If Mr. Li can help us get rid of this serious problem, it will be a great achievement!"

Guan Zheng immediately sent someone to take Li Yun to the scrap yard.

When Li Yun heard about the case just now, he was a little happy to see Liexin, but he still held it back and thought secretly, "It's better to do business first.

"

I excitedly arrived at the scrap yard and saw a huge dump. The terrain here was not a valley, but just a super-large pothole. Therefore, these scraps had indeed affected the view. No wonder Guan Zheng sighed.

After the guide left, Li Yun immediately started moving all the approximately 20,000 square meters of waste here to the waste warehouse in space.

He moved much faster now than before, so he completed the task in about two hours.

Satisfied, he returned to Guan Zheng's pavilion and found that Li Wei and Guan Zheng were still chatting, so he also came over.

"Yun'er, are you coming back so soon?" Li Wei was a little surprised to see him coming back.

"Yes, I have asked people to clean up the scrap yard." Li Yun replied.

"What?! Already cleaned up?!" Guan Zheng felt a little incredible.

"Well, I guess it will be cleaned up by now."

"Wow, that's great! Who is so efficient? It seems that we will ask them to clean up the waste from other government agencies next time." Guan Zheng said in surprise.

"No problem. If necessary, uncle can just ask someone to notify me. I estimate that I will be in the Imperial Capital within the next six months." Li Yun quickly took over the recycling business.

"real?!"

"More real than pearls." Li Yun smiled.

"good!"

At this time, a figure walked in quickly from outside, it was Zhao Yu.

"Director, good news! The lost gift from the Dongchang Empire has been found!" Zhao Yu smiled happily and nodded quickly when he saw Li Wei.

"Recovered?! So fast?! Who found it?" Guan Zheng felt that there were too many surprises today.

"According to the report from the Dongchang mission, it was said that the gift had returned on its own. When they went to check the ward in the afternoon, they were surprised to find that the gift had returned to its original place." Zhao Yu said.

"Didn't anyone see how it came back?" Guan Zheng asked.

"No...no."

"What exactly is going on? Could it be that the people in the mission made a mistake?"

Guan Zheng was a little surprised and confused. As a veteran who had been in the crime scene for many years, he had a sixth sense that ordinary people did not have. He felt that this matter was not that simple.

"Director, since the gift is not lost, it is none of our Xingtian Division's business. Why bother with it?" Zhao Yu said.

"No, I always feel that there is something wrong with this matter, but I just can't tell what is wrong. This..." Guan Zheng was still thinking.

"Uncle, this matter is indeed not a trivial matter. If we don't figure it out, we can't let it go easily." Li Yun said suddenly.

Guan Zheng was startled, looked up at Li Yun, and said happily: "Yes! Your words won my heart. This matter is definitely a big deal. A country's mission lost an important gift. Even if it gets it back again, we still need to Let’s get to the bottom of it, otherwise, major mistakes are very likely to occur!”

"Uncle, can I ask a few questions?"

"Just ask."

"How does the imperial court generally handle gifts from various countries? Do they go into the treasury directly, or do they need to be received by the emperor in person?"

"Good question! If it is a tribute gift from a general place, the normal process is to directly count it and put it in the warehouse, and then show the list to the emperor. However, such major gifts from various countries will usually be displayed at the birthday ceremony. Let the Holy One see it in person, and the atmosphere at the scene will be extremely grand! At that time, the Holy One will usually reward the envoys who presented the gift in return, to show their great vigor." Guan Zheng said.

"I wonder what the sage's awards and gifts include?" Li Yun continued to ask.

"Return gifts are usually gold and silver cloth, mysterious stones, and some special products of Tianlong. By the way, our Tianlong Empire also has a special reward, which is the 'gift of Xuan'."

"Give Xuan?!" Li Yun was startled, a little confused.

Guan Zheng explained: "There is a huge Xuan Gathering Formation in our Tianlong court. This is a large formation built by the Qingyuan Sect for us. It can gather the surrounding Xuan Qi, making the concentration of Xuan Qi in the court extremely high. , the people in the formation are like practicing in an environment full of profound energy, which is of great benefit to themselves. Of course, it also consumes a lot of profound stones, because it requires a large amount of high-grade profound stones to drive. Therefore, only in It will only be activated when it is given a mysterious gift. Speaking of which, I am quite looking forward to this."

"Xuan Gathering Array? It turns out that there is such an array to assist cultivation. It seems that I will find a way to get one in the future. I wonder if there is a spirit gathering array..." Li Yun thought to himself.

"Sir, do you still have any questions?" Guan Zheng asked, staring at Li Yun.

"Yes. I would like to ask Uncle Zhao, you have gone to inspect the scene and can you describe to me the situation at that time." Li Yun said.

When Zhao Yu heard this, he thought for a while and said: "This morning, the people from the mission discovered that the gift had been stolen, so they urgently reported the case. A case of this level quickly came to our Xingtian Division. After I received the case, I rushed to At the scene, it took about an hour from the time the crime was reported to when I arrived at the crime scene.”

"According to people from the mission, they guard the door day and night, and go inside to check every hour. The gift is placed in a tall box, and it is difficult to put it into the room, let alone steal it out. However, the gift They didn't notice the theft, which shows that the person who committed the crime must be a master. What's even stranger is that when they went to check other gifts in the afternoon, they found that the tribute gift had magically returned, but they still didn't find any trace. I After carefully checking all the traces in the house, we found no traces of tracks moving out of the door, and even no sign of the windows being moved. It’s really incredible.”

Li Yun thought for a while and asked, "Uncle Zhao, are you sure there is no traitor among them?"

Zhao Yu nodded and said: "At the scene of the interrogation by the head of the mission, based on my many years of experience in investigating people, I can see that they are indeed loyal to their duties and do not seem to be hidden traitors."

"So, has anyone else been in or out of the room other than the person watching it?"

"No, no one else is allowed to enter, except the group leader himself." Zhao Yu replied.

"Well, I understand!" Li Yun said.

"Yun'er, what do you understand?" Li Wei asked.

"I know how they stole the gift." Li Yun smiled.

"Really?!" Guan Zheng and Zhao Yu asked at the same time in disbelief.

"Yes! If everything is as Uncle Zhao said, then...the thief actually came up from underground and moved the gifts underground." Li Yun said decisively.
