Thief Game: Starting with Obtaining the Kidd Card

"succeed?"

Sun Luo, who had just returned from Western Europe, was somewhat surprised to hear this word, especially at such a delicate time, which instantly put him on alert.

Seemingly noticing the confusion on Sun Luo's face, Lin Chuanxiong then spoke up to explain:

"Captain Du was just transferred to the position of deputy chief of the seventh district of China. His promotion report was sent three days ago. He just hasn't left yet because he's waiting for his replacement to arrive for the handover."

Upon hearing this, Sun Luo's gaze fell on Captain Du, who had a smile on his face, and he said softly, "Congratulations."

"Thank you, Captain Sun."

Captain Du immediately stood up, displaying great humility. Even though he was no longer Sun Luo's subordinate, this humility remained unchanged, which was probably the reason he was promoted.

Sun Luo ignored Captain Du and looked at the team members again, saying:

Where is he now?

"Still waiting in the reception room. Oh, right, Captain, here is the information of the new captain."

The team member took a blue folder from behind his back and quickly stepped forward to hand it to Sun Luo.

Sun Luo opened the folder and scanned it with his eyes:

"Name: Fifth Qing, Gender: Male, Age: 27, Pursuit Expert: Level 8!"

"An eighth-level pursuit expert?!" Upon seeing the information in the document, the female captain, Fu Lingling, exclaimed in surprise.

The Pursuit Expert is an official assessment set by the Pursuit Team, similar to a level test for musical instruments or languages. The Pursuit Expert level ranges from Level 1, the lowest, to Level 8, the highest.

The Level 8 exam is only offered twice a year in each region, and the exam content is strictly controlled, so there are not many people taking it, and each one is highly valuable!

"Fifth Qing... surnamed Di? Does China have such a strange surname?" Lin Chuanxiong asked, somewhat puzzled.

“Vice Captain, Fifth is a compound surname, not the surname Di,” Fu Lingling explained.

"Uh... I see." Lin Chuanxiong smiled awkwardly and didn't dwell on the topic.

But then, Fu Lingling turned her gaze to Sun Luo beside her: "Captain, if I remember correctly, you also took the expert pursuit certificate exam, right? What level were you?"

"I'm at level seven. I had a small problem during the level eight exam and failed," Sun Luo readily admitted.

At this critical moment, if an eighth-level pursuit expert could come and help, that would undoubtedly be a good thing!

but……

Sun Luo's vigilance remained, his gaze scrutinizing the team members before him as he said:

"Has his identity been checked?"

"We've checked it. The evidence and the Level 8 authentication of the pursuit platform are all in order, and it has passed the fingerprint and iris authentication of the pursuit platform," the team member replied truthfully.

Hearing this answer, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, they couldn't help but think that this new captain was being a little too cautious.

Sun Luo nodded and didn't ask anything more.

He could ignore the previous document checks, since forging documents wasn't difficult, but the information from the pursuit platform would not be falsified.

The pursuit platform is completely independent of the official pursuit team and operates independently. The possibility of the platform information being hacked and tampered with is virtually zero, and it is extremely easy to detect!

Of course, that's not the most important thing. The most important thing is that in the past year or so, there have been no more than 50 Level 8 pursuit experts, and each of them is an elite who has undergone rigorous testing. Their iris and fingerprint information can be checked, making it almost impossible for them to be impersonated!

"Please have him come over, Captain Du. Please complete the handover within one hour. Everyone go back and prepare. We will depart for the target location in one and a half hours!"

"Yes!"

Everyone stood up and spoke in unison.

Chapter 465 Museum and Shangguan Meng

"Fifth Captain, have some water."

Inside the jeep bearing the insignia of the pursuit team, Fu Lingling unscrewed a bottle of water and handed it to the young man beside her. Her gaze would occasionally sweep over the young man's angular face before she would casually look away.

"Thank you."

The young man smiled at Fu Lingling, which made her blush slightly.

Guo Yu, the squad leader of the third team, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, couldn't help but roll his eyes helplessly when he saw this.

It's unfair that he's so handsome...

"The Fifth Brother."

At this moment, Deputy Captain Lin Chuanxiong, who was driving, spoke up:

"When did you pass the Level 8 pursuit certification exam? I remember your name wasn't among the thirty-odd Level 8 pursuit experts officially announced last month."

"Oh, I just took the test recently. I was abroad for a while and just returned to China recently. I happened to be taking this test, and I had some free time, so I took it. You'll see my name on the list next month."

Fifth Qing's smile remained unchanged, and his tone was calm, making people feel very comfortable.

Although Fifth Qing didn't say anything, Fu Lingling spoke up, somewhat indignantly:

"Oh dear, Deputy Captain Lin! Uncle Lin! Didn't Fifth just pass the detection by the pursuit platform today? You didn't say anything before, so why are you talking so much now? You can't keep doubting someone's identity just because Fifth arrived at a somewhat coincidental time, can you?"

"Uh, haha, I was just asking casually."

Lin Chuanxiong chuckled twice, not wanting to dwell on the matter any further, but his gaze kept glancing at the rearview mirror of CCTV, as if trying to glean something from it.

There was something he kept hidden:

Even he himself didn't know why, but this Fifth Youth General, whom he had never met before, gave him a strange sense of familiarity, especially that smile, which made him feel both familiar and... an urge to punch this kid...

squeak-

About half an hour later, the car came to a steady stop in front of a towering building.

The wide black glass curtain wall reflects the midday sun and the bustling scene of people coming and going at the entrance of the building.

Pedestrians come and go, freely entering and exiting the building's entrance. A middle-aged man in a suit stands at the entrance, waiting for something.

As a vehicle bearing the words "Pursuit Team" stopped in front of the building, many people stopped and cast curious glances in that direction.

Lin Chuanxiong and the others got out of the car one by one, and Sun Luo, who was sitting in the car behind, also got out. Under everyone's watchful eyes, the group of pursuit team members walked towards the building.

People around were talking about it:

"Why are the pursuit team here? Are they interested in the cultural relics exhibition too?"

"Are you stupid? There was a report a couple of days ago that Rattlesnake the Phantom Thief was planning to target this artifact exhibition, and it seems it's true..."

"Phantom Thief Rattlesnake? Oh, that's the one who challenged my husband KID, right? Just a clown trying to scam me, humph!"

"Who? Who issued another challenge to Kidd? Wait, isn't Kidd supposed to be in Western Europe right now? Why would he issue a challenge from home?"

"Who knows..."

People around were whispering among themselves, and a petite figure was mixed in with them.

He crossed his arms and glared at the pursuing team not far away.

"What bad luck! It was already bad enough that my older sister wouldn't let us participate in this, and now that we've finally managed to sneak out, we've run into these guys from the pursuit team. What bad luck!" Shangguan Meng pouted and muttered to herself.

Ever since Shangguan Lin learned of Chen Feng's attitude from Shangguan Xi, she strictly forbade her two younger sisters from getting involved in the matter, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble and ruin Chen Feng's own plans.

Shangguan Xi didn't think anything of it. She wished she could spend 24 hours a day chatting with Chen Feng on her phone, so naturally she had no objections.

However, this really frustrated the usually active Shangguan Meng. She finally found an opportunity and managed to escape from her older sister under the pretext of needing to find materials for a school photography activity. But before she could be happy for long, she ran into the pursuit team again.

Perhaps noticing Shangguan Meng's unusual behavior, Fifth Qing, walking among the pursuit team, turned his head and glanced in that direction, his eyes meeting Shangguan Meng's in mid-air.

Upon seeing this, Shangguan Meng was startled and quickly looked away, hiding in the crowd.

"what happened?"

Fu Lingling, who was walking beside her, asked curiously.

Fifth Qing shook his head: "It's nothing, it just seems like I ran into an acquaintance."

"An acquaintance?" Fu Lingling was taken aback. If she remembered correctly, wasn't Wu Qing abroad and had just returned to China? Moreover, his family wasn't even from H City. How could he have an acquaintance in H City?

Before she could ask any questions, the middle-aged man who had been standing at the entrance of the building had already come up.

"Excuse me, which one of you is Captain Sun?"

"Yes, you must be Director Luo."

Sun Luo stepped forward and shook hands with the middle-aged man who was referred to as "Director Luo".

After a few brief pleasantries, Sun Luo got straight to the point: "Director Luo, if it's convenient, could you take us to see the artifacts that the phantom thief Rattlesnake has his eye on?"

"Of course," Director Luo readily agreed, gesturing for everyone to proceed.

"Captain Sun, and everyone in the pursuit team, please come in. I happen to have some free time today, so I'll personally show you around."

"Then I'll have to trouble Director Luo." Sun Luo said politely, then waved to the people behind him, signaling them to follow.

A large group of people walked into the building, each one holding their head high and remaining silent. Their imposing manner caused those around them to unconsciously make way for them.

Only after the last person entered the building did Shangguan Meng, who had been hiding in the crowd, slowly peek out. Her fair brows furrowed slightly as she stared at the building entrance for a long time without looking away.

Was that person just now... looking at me? Have I been exposed?

Even Shangguan Meng herself was startled by this idea, but she quickly rejected it.

I always wear a mask when I go out, and even the most capable person couldn't possibly know someone's identity from such a distance with just a glance, right?

That's practically cheating!

Shangguan Meng frowned in thought, watching the crowds coming and going at the entrance of the building. After thinking for a moment, she still lifted her foot and walked over there.

However, out of caution, she also quietly took out a portable smoke grenade from her small waist bag, so that she could run away at any time if an emergency occurred.

Chapter 466 The Phantom Thief Who Infiltrated?

“Our museum was started 12 years ago and officially opened 8 years ago. It is considered one of the largest museums in S Province and even the entire eastern region.”

"This place not only has a large number of precious cultural relics and gems, but also many precious collections and works of art that private collectors have placed here for exhibition."

In the museum’s wide corridor, Director Luo walked at the front, introducing the exhibits to everyone as he went. After turning two corners, he finally stopped in front of an exhibit.
