Chapter 163: Water Jade Gone

Zhu Song became more and more angry the more he thought about it. If he hadn't wanted to witness with his own eyes what kind of sky-high price the finale would have sold, he would have left long ago.

At the same time, all the items in Haoyue Auction were auctioned except for Shui Yu, and the rest were some items privately entrusted to the auction house for auction.

After the successful auction is made, Haoyue Auction House will draw 20% of the commission fee.

These things are basically gold, silver, jewelry, ceramics and antiques. Although they were successfully auctioned off, the price is far less than the previous lots.

As the last private lot was taken out, Li Shihan's voice came from the auction stand again: "The next one is the last lot of this auction. Please enjoy it. The treasure of our Haoyue Auction Store, Shuiyu!"

As soon as Li Shihan finished speaking, a waiter with outstanding appearance slowly walked up with an exquisite box and carefully placed the box on the auction table.

However, when Li Shihan opened the box, he found that the box was empty.

Shuiyu was actually lost!

Li Shihan's face turned pale in an instant. She knew the value of the water jade very well. Now that the water jade is lost, how can she explain to so many VIPs on the scene?

Although this water jade was made by Haoyue Manor itself, it is only two of which are so round and so large. One is presented to the emperor and the other is for auction.

Although many of the remaining ones are of good quality, they are not as large as that size and their value will be greatly reduced.

At this moment, the VIPs were stunned when they saw the empty box, not understanding what the auction house was doing.

"Hey? What's the situation? Do you want to play with mystery?" Li Mingyang looked at the auction table and said in confusion.

Zhu Song, who was standing beside him, also frowned and said, "I'm afraid it's not about playing with mystery, but about Shui Yu really disappearing."

"Absent?" Li Mingyang was shocked. Such a precious water jade disappeared. How much money would the Haoyue Auction lose?

Zhu Song nodded, pointed to Li Shihan at the auction stand and said, "Look at the auctioneer, she was so panicked, probably she didn't expect the box to be empty!"

"All the entrances of Haoyue Auction are guarded by escorts. This water jade is so precious, so there must be many guards. Who has the ability to steal the water jade quietly?"

Li Mingyang lowered his head and thought, suddenly, his eyes lit up and he said, "The gate of the auction house has been closed, and there are guards around him, which means that the person who stole the water jade is likely to be still in the manor. Your Majesty, I'll go and have a look."

Zhu Song nodded, his face was also very gloomy. The owner of the Haoyue Auction Store was Yu Hao, and Yu Hao was also doing business under the name of the emperor.

Now someone stole Shui Yu at Haoyue Auction. Isn’t this slapping him, the emperor in the face?

Thinking of this, Zhu Song called the waiter next to him and whispered something to the waiter's ear. The waiter was startled and hurriedly ran to the backstage.

At the auction stand, Li Shihan's face turned from pale to anger, suppressing his anger in his heart and said, "I'm really embarrassed, I have some surprises. Please give me some time. I'll give you all the guests an explanation later."

After saying that, Li Shihan turned around and walked towards the backstage without waiting for everyone to react.

At this time, the waiter who brought Shui Yu up was squatting in the corner with panic on his face. Beside him was Datou and a group of corpses, each looking sad.

Li Shihan looked at the waiter and asked seriously: "What's going on? Where is Shui Yu?"

Hearing Li Shihan's voice, the waiter stood up and said weakly: "I... I don't know what's going on. The box that contains water jade has been kept in the cabinet and has never been taken out."

"Master Li, I can prove that I have been here with my brothers and I have been here, and no one has ever been there." Datou also stood up and said.

At this time, Datou was also very panicked. He was responsible for guarding Shui Yu, but Shui Yu was lost. He undoubtedly became the most suspected person. Li Shihan may suspect that he was a custodian.

But he really didn't take the water jade, and he couldn't figure out why the water jade would be lost?

After hearing the two of them, Li Shihan did not blame him too much, but opened the cabinet and looked carefully.

The cabinet is made of solid wood, with a total of six small compartments, each with a lot of storage.

The compartment where water jade is stored is in the middle, and there seems to be nothing unusual.

At this moment, Li Shihan suddenly found that the entire compartment had been cut along the edge. With a light push with his hand, the solid wood cabinet wall fell down, revealing a large square hole.

At the same time, the wall behind the cabinet was chiseled through, and the other party must have taken Shui Yu away quietly from here.

Datou suddenly widened his eyes. He would never have thought that the other party would actually make a hole in the wall.

Although the walls are made of wood, so many of them didn't hear the sound of chiseling the wall here, which means that the other party broke the wall in an instant, causing them to fail to react.

How high is the martial arts of a person who can break the wooden wall in an instant?

"The room next to it is the warehouse of the auction house, a place where ingredients are piled up. There are few people moving around in normal times." Datou said hurriedly.

"The defense of our auction house has always been strict. This person is very likely to be still in the auction house. Datou immediately brings people to find him!" Li Shihan said coldly.

"Yes, brothers, come with me!" Big Head waved his hand and rushed out of the backstage with his bodyguard, his eyes full of determination.

Although Li Shihan never blamed him from beginning to end, he felt a sense of enthusiasm.

It is his responsibility to lose Shui Yu, and no matter what, he will find Shui Yu back.

Shortly after Datou and others left, a waiter hurriedly ran over: "Master, the VIP in the Private Room No. 9 wants to see you."

"See me?" Li Shihan frowned. The other party wanted to see him at this time. Could it be that he knew the whereabouts of Shui Yu?

Seeing Li Shihan's doubt, the waiter hurriedly approached Li Shihan's ear and whispered something.

The next second, Li Shihan widened her eyes and hurried to the private room No. 9 without waiting for the waiter to react.

Soon, Li Shihan arrived at the door of the No. 9 private room and knocked on the door gently.

"Come in." A majestic voice came from the private room.

Li Shihan pushed the door and came to Zhu Song and fell to his knees: "Men's girl see Your Majesty."

"Flat."

Zhu Song glanced at Li Shihan, took out a crystal clear water jade from his arms and placed it on the table.

"You can take this water jade to auction!"

"This is..." Li Shihan's pupils shrank sharply. Isn't this the one that Yu Hao presented to Zhu Song at the time?

You know, this water jade is the most perfect one made by Haoyue Manor.

This water jade is not only as transparent as still water, but also as the size of an adult man’s fist, which is a circle larger than the missing one!

Li Shihan didn't know what Zhu Song meant, but she had no courage to take this water jade to auction.

"This water jade was specially presented to His Majesty by Mr. Yu. How dare the female genius have the intention to covet it? Please take it back."
