Escape after crossing

Chapter 247 Night Visit to the Prince's Mansion (2)

Tonight, Jiang Ziluo risked sneaking into the mansion just to find out what was going on. However, deep in her heart, her real purpose was to rob the Second Prince's storehouse and take the opportunity to teach him a lesson, so that this usually high-handed prince would suffer.

At this moment, Jiang Ziluo took advantage of the cover of night and the trick of space to swiftly dodge teams of patrolling guards, quietly approaching his target step by step...

She took advantage of the guards' shift change to sneak into the main courtyard. She walked lightly, trying not to make any noise.

However, just as she approached the Second Prince's study, she suddenly heard footsteps. Her heart tightened, and she quickly hid behind a beam. She saw a figure walk into the study, and it seemed to be the Second Prince himself.

Jiang Ziluo held his breath and waited for his chance. A moment later, the second prince left the study and walked towards another room.

Jiang Ziluo waited until the second prince walked away, then quietly walked to the door of the study and gently pushed it open. She walked into the study and looked around, wanting to see if the second prince would also have a secret room in the study. What was the secret passage? She carefully searched the books on the bookshelf, hoping to find some clues.

Suddenly, she found a painting on the wall that looked a little strange. She walked closer and observed it carefully, and found that there seemed to be a secret door behind the painting. Jiang Ziluo was delighted and reached out to push the painting open.

The secret door slowly opened, revealing a narrow passage. Jiang Ziluo entered the passage without hesitation and walked down the steps. At the end of the passage was a secret room filled with all kinds of precious jewels, calligraphy and paintings, and gold.

When Jiang Ziluo saw the scene in front of him, he felt excited, unbelievable, and a little relieved. Fortunately, he was more careful, otherwise he would have missed so many precious treasures.

But looking at the things in front of him, Jiang Ziluo felt a little embarrassed. He had originally planned to come here to investigate tonight, but looking at so many things, he didn't want to let them go.

But after a short while, Jiang Ziluo finally looted all the stuff. Now that he had started, Jiang Ziluo no longer hesitated and prepared to find the warehouse, empty it directly, set it on fire, and leave.

When she walked out of the study, she happened to meet a patrolling guard. She quickly hid herself and reappeared after the guards had passed.

Relying on the space and her own agility, Jiang Ziluo finally successfully found the location of the warehouse after going through untold hardships.

However, what surprised Jiang Ziluo was that this seemingly important warehouse was actually empty. This discovery was so strange that she couldn't help but stop, frowning and falling into deep thought.

Full of doubts, Jiang Ziluo walked cautiously into the warehouse and carefully observed the situation around him.

She first checked the door lock and found it was intact with no signs of having been pried; then she looked at the window and also did not see any signs of damage.

In this way, the possibility that someone had arrived here before her and entered the warehouse can be basically ruled out.

However, it was really abnormal that there was no one guarding the warehouse. Jiang Ziluo thought to himself, "Could it be that this warehouse has something special? Maybe there are some secrets hidden inside that are unknown to outsiders, so there is no need to send someone to guard it, because there is no need to worry about someone coming to steal..."

Thinking of this, Jiang Ziluo's eyes became sharper, as if he wanted to see through the tightly closed warehouse door to see the truth.

But at this moment, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind - maybe this was just a trick to deceive people! The real warehouse might be hidden in some other more secret place.

But anyway, since she was already here, Jiang Ziluo decided to go in and find out what was going on. So, she took a deep breath and pried open the door lock.

Speaking of the skill of picking door locks, I really have to thank Master Xue! Back then, Master Xue forced Jiang Ziluo to learn this. Master Xue vowed that this skill would be of great use to Jiang Ziluo when he ventured into the martial arts world in the future.

At first, Jiang Ziluo was actually very reluctant. On the one hand, she didn't think she would need this skill in the future; on the other hand, she felt that most of the ancient locks had simple structures, and except for some special locks, they should not be difficult for her.

However, Xue Lao was very determined and insisted on teaching Jiang Ziluo this skill. In order to persuade Jiang Ziluo to study seriously, Xue Lao even traveled thousands of miles from the villa to bring out all kinds of special locks that he had carefully collected over the years, so that Jiang Ziluo could learn more.

Those common locks were a piece of cake for the clever Jiang Ziluo. It didn't take her much effort to learn the tricks of unlocking them.

However, when it comes to special locks, the situation is different. Their structures are complex and diverse, and they require more advanced skills and patience to open.

At the beginning, Jiang Ziluo didn't take these special locks too seriously. He just took the attitude of learning them casually and getting by.

But who would have thought that as she got to know them more deeply, she would gradually be attracted to these mysterious and unique locks and develop a strong interest in them.

However, the lock before him was ordinary and nothing special. It was just an ordinary door lock that could be seen everywhere in daily life.

But such a small situation was not a problem for the clever Jiang Ziluo. She skillfully fiddled with the tools in her hands, and soon, with a slight "click", the door lock opened.

The door slowly opened, and Jiang Ziluo flashed into the storeroom as swiftly as a flash of lightning. Although she moved quickly, every step she took seemed extremely cautious, as if the slightest mistake would trigger a hidden trap.

After entering the warehouse, Jiang Ziluo gently turned her body, and with her backhand, she closed the door that had just been opened, and made sure it was tightly closed. After doing this, she stood still like a sculpture, not daring to move at all.

A strong intuition surged into Jiang Ziluo's mind, telling him that this seemingly ordinary door must be hiding a mystery and was by no means as simple as it appeared on the surface.

Therefore, she decided to avoid the spotlight for the time being, just in case. As soon as the thought flashed through her mind, Jiang Ziluo's figure flashed and disappeared in an instant. It turned out that she had already flashed into her own mysterious space.

Jiang Ziluo clearly remembers that once when she went out shopping, she specially bought a set of advanced night vision goggles and placed them at home in case of emergency.

Since I bought this set of night vision goggles, I have never had a suitable opportunity to use them, so they are still lying in a corner gathering dust.

Now, it can come in handy! Thinking of this, Jiang Ziluo began to search carefully among the piles of debris.

Fortunately, Jiang Ziluo has never been a person who likes to accumulate too many useless things, and the number of miscellaneous items she owns is relatively small.
