777米奇影

The thief acted with reckless abandon, and at this point, Luo Feng had run out of patience.

“Fine then, if you’re going to be this brazen, it would be remiss of me not to teach you a lesson,” Luo Feng said.

In the blink of an eye, Luo Feng closed the distance between him and the thief, who was taken aback by Luo Feng’s incredible speed. Instinctively, the thief tried to retreat, but before he could move two steps, Luo Feng had already circled around to his back, gripping his shoulder tightly.

Realizing that escape was no longer an option, the thief changed tactics. He quickly pulled a dagger from his trouser pocket and lunged it towards Luo Feng’s neck, trying to force him to retreat. The tactic worked momentarily; Luo Feng dodged, giving the thief a window of opportunity to escape.

Unfortunately for him, he had barely taken a few steps before Luo Feng caught up with him again, this time prepared for any underhanded tricks the thief might employ. Seizing his arm, Luo Feng struck down hard, nearly breaking the thief’s limb.

Immobilized by the intense pain, the thief could only watch as Luo Feng reclaimed his backpack.

“Please, let me go! You’ve got your stuff back; can’t we just call it even?” the thief begged, but Luo Feng had no intention of letting him go.

“I suggest you stay still. Next time, I’ll break your bones,” Luo Feng warned. The thief was rendered speechless and could only curl up helplessly.

Luo Feng kept an eye on the thief until the security guards finally caught up. They were flabbergasted; they had been rushing at full speed, only to find the culprit already apprehended by a passenger who had set off after them.

“Although we had the situation under control and were about to capture him, we’re grateful for your timely intervention,” the security guards offered their rehearsed gratitude.

Luo Feng didn’t care for their attempts to save face. After handing the thief over, he went on his way. After checking his bag and confirming that nothing was missing, he left the airport. His impression of the city was far from positive, but as long as he still had his black card, the rest was inconsequential.

Hailing a taxi, Luo Feng arrived at a hotel near the auction venue. The place was bustling, filled with people who seemed to be here for the auction. Being new to the area, Luo Feng knew he needed to gather information.

In the evening, instead of going for dinner, he stood outside the hotel for a while. Soon, two men emerged, engrossed in conversation about the auction.

“I must secure that bronze artifact this time!” one man said.

“Are you referring to the bronze artifact that just arrived in our country last month?” the other man asked cautiously.

“Keep your voice down. I’ve only told you about this. The big shots don’t yet know what the finale of this auction will be. If you leak this, I won’t forgive you,” warned the first man.

“Don’t worry; there’s no one else around. I flew all this way to be with you, and I don’t want to mess things up either,” the second man assured him.

“Good. I’m here representing my boss, and he’s given me a generous budget. I can’t afford to lose that artifact.”

As the two men continued their conversation, Luo Feng discreetly followed them. They seemed to lack awareness, failing to notice him.

They eventually arrived at a bar and chose a secluded table. Luo Feng took a seat on the other side of the wall, feigning interest in his drink while eavesdropping on their conversation. Despite his efforts, he didn’t glean any particularly useful information; these men didn’t seem to know much.

In summary, the people who had gathered for the auction were wealthy individuals with a penchant for antiques. They were all here for the grand finale of the event.

Thus, Luo Feng continued to blend into the shadows, his eyes and ears wide open for any clue that might give him an advantage in the upcoming auction..
