Chapter 358: Preparing to Cause Trouble

 Chapter 358: Preparing to Cause Trouble

Yuan Shanchuan stood by, amazed as he felt that the painting he had gone to great lengths to hide was right in front of him. Meng Yunzheng was finishing up the final touches and kept an eye on the door. Suddenly, Da Niu said, "Someone is coming out." Shu Yu walked over, and Da Niu continued, "Unfortunately, it's just a servant." "A servant?" Shu Yu took his place and indeed saw a servant wearing a hat come out of the box, while the others remained inside. At this moment, Meng Yunzheng suddenly said, "This is a good opportunity. If we cause trouble for this servant, maybe the people inside the box will come out." In the chaos, it was easiest to switch things around. Shu Yu nodded, "How do we find him?" "I told Zhao to wait downstairs. I'll signal to him now." As he spoke, Meng Yunzheng walked to the window, pressed the blinds with his hand, pressing them down seven or eight times. Zhao Xi, who had been waiting in the lobby downstairs, looked up and saw Meng Yunzheng's signal. He straightened his back. He stuffed the pastry in his hand into his mouth, clapped his hands, and casually looked toward the staircase. Before long, a person appeared at the foot of the stairs. Zhao Xi looked up again, and Meng Yunzheng on the upper floor naturally also saw the person descending. He pressed the blinds two more times. After confirming, Zhao Xi nonchalantly followed the servant with the hat. The servant walked directly to the restroom, and Zhao Xi went in as well. After a while, they both came out. To Zhao Xi's surprise, instead of returning to the auction house, the servant continued walking toward the front hall. Zhao Xi narrowed his eyes and felt that something was off. Seeing the servant walking away, he suddenly shouted loudly, "Ah, there's a thief! A thief went that way." As soon as he finished speaking, several members of the black market came over and asked, "What happened, sir? What happened?" "I just saw a thief wearing a brown coat heading to the front hall. It looked like he was holding something in his hand and acting suspiciously. He bumped into me without apologizing and seemed flustered. After he left, I realized my money pouch was gone. How could there be thieves in the black market? It's so strange." The faces of the market's staff slightly changed. A brown coat? Yuan Shanchuan had been wearing a brown coat earlier. They hadn't been able to find him all this time, and now he had the audacity to steal from a guest? Furthermore, he was holding something in his hand. Could it be that he had stolen the painting? Damn it, if that were the case, it would be a big problem. Two of the staff hurriedly found a few more people and quickly ran towards the front hall. Meanwhile, Zhao Xi, taking advantage of their distraction, had already made his way to the front hall. This was the main hall where Shu Yu and the others had first entered, with counters and staff available for inquiries. There were also some people who hadn't gone to the auction building and were still lingering here for transactions. So there were quite a few people in the hall at the moment. The market's staff obviously didn't want to create a big scene, so they had blocked off the front, back, and side entrances, intending to conduct a thorough search within the hall. However, Zhao Xi had followed along, and his intention was to cause a commotion. How could he go along with their low-key approach? As soon as he entered, he began shouting loudly, "A thief has come in! Everyone, be careful and see who just came in. He stole my money pouch. Damn it, I still have to go to the auction in the small building. If I don't have money, I'll lose my life."
