Of course, the dozens of boxes of treasures in front of him were for Prefect Hong to see. There were also treasures in the secret room, treasures passed down from generations of the Yu family, and he would never be able to find them no matter how much virtue he accumulated.

Xin Ye and Yan Yiyi had discussed the matter in the secret room. Yan Yiyi did not plan to steal everything at once, as there would be a next time anyway.

If you feel that what you stole openly is not worth it, you can always come back for more after you've finished showing off.

"Oh no! All the items in the warehouse have been taken away by Ji De!"

Although the study was some distance away, it was very quiet at night. Upon hearing the news, the yamen runners and guards who were patrolling outside immediately ran to the study to report to Prefect Hong.

"What!? Ji De has emptied the entire warehouse in such a short time!" Prefect Hong stood up in shock, took a few steps forward, and then stopped.

"No, I cannot leave my post without permission." Having said that, he sat back down, his face stern, his eyes sharp and alert, and ordered, "Everyone, be alert! Ji De is about to arrive in the study, we must arrest him!"

The moment the voice fell, the study was dark.

"Pfft!"

"Pfft!"

“Hiss—” Master Yu gasped in pain and shouted angrily: “Who on earth is so presumptuous to pull this master’s chair away!”

Prefect Hong, who had just gotten up from the ground and was rubbing his butt, paused and immediately shouted, "Someone, turn on the lights!"

Upon hearing this, the butler, who was also on guard, immediately took out a tinder from his sleeve. The moment the tinder lit up, everyone was shocked.

--empty.

The whole study is empty!

Just at the moment when the lights were turned off!

OMG!

Isn't this a miracle?

The housekeeper was so frightened that the tinder dropped to the ground. Fortunately, there was no carpet on the floor, otherwise it would have caught fire.

The tinder did not go out immediately, but the flame gradually became smaller.

Prefect Hong was the first to react. He picked up the tinderbox and the light became brighter again. He came in front of Master Yu, who was sitting on the ground with a dazed expression. It was obvious that he was so frightened that he had not yet recovered.

"Master Yu..." Magistrate Hong was about to go over and help the man up, but Master Yu was obviously over-stimulated, his eyes rolled back, and he fainted.

"Quick, call the doctor!" Magistrate Hong immediately ordered, "Housekeeper, take good care of your master, and the rest of you, follow me out to search for the criminal!"

Yan Yiyi didn't walk far. She was just outside the courtyard when she saw Prefect Hong come out and lead the soldiers to search other places. She calculated the time and found that it had been less than 15 minutes since she came to take over the warehouse and study. She still had plenty of time and could make more money.

So, Yan Yiyi followed behind Prefect Hong, and wherever his men searched, the women would give way, leave their rooms and wait in the yard.

When Yan Yiyi and other yamen runners finished their search and turned to leave, they put the women's jewelry and dressing tables into the space.

"Ah! My accessories are gone, Ji De! Ji De is here!"

"Oh no, Ji De stole my dressing table!"

"God damn my dressing-case, my jewels and my silver!"

Things like this happened one after another, and Prefect Hong's face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot. He felt that Ji De was deliberately provoking him!

However, as soon as he had this thought, the women in other courtyards also heard the same cries of pain and collapse.

Prefect Hong: ...

For a moment, the entire Yu Mansion was in chaos.

Let’s talk about the Fan Mansion.

The Fan Mansion was under the charge of the Chief of Police, but the plan was the same as that discussed with Magistrate Hong, which was to use the method of ambushing troops and having the head of the household personally guard the study.

Yan Yiyi contacted Xin Ye on the way to the study after cleaning up the warehouse and told him about the situation here. Xin Ye understood and knew what to do next.

Xin Ye did not use the same method as Yan Yiyi and directly put the items into the space. Instead, he sprinkled drugs to knock out the guards outside, opened a crack in the door, and threw smoke inside.

After hearing the sound of someone falling to the ground, Xin Ye waited for another five minutes before opening the door and going in.

With a wave of his hand, all the items in the warehouse were put into the space, leaving a dozen or so yamen runners and guards lying unconscious on the ground.

After collecting the goods from the warehouse, he also locked the warehouse and then went to Master Fan's yard.

"Wife, are you here?" Xin Ye was sitting on a stone bench in Master Fan's yard, whispering to Yan Yiyi.

Most of the guards in the mansion were in the storeroom and study, so the defense here was tough, with only a few servants guarding the door of the master bedroom, a certain distance away from the stone bench.

Moreover, Mr. Fan was chatting with a few friends in the living room, gossiping about Ji De, and some of them were dreaming of catching Ji De and exposing his true face.

Tsk, what a bunch of ignorant second-generation rich kids. I’ll teach them a lesson later about the consequences of criticizing others for their good deeds.

"I'm on my way to the Fan Mansion. Where are you?"

"I'm sitting on the stone bench in Mr. Fan's yard, waiting for my wife~"

Yan Yiyi couldn't help but smile: "Be good, just wait for me for a few minutes and I'll be there."

"Wife, please come quickly, otherwise I'm worried that they will find out that the storehouse has been robbed and the whole mansion will be in turmoil, which will affect my performance."

"Good~"

"By the way, wife, please pay attention to whether there are any masters following you, especially the master standing on the willow tree."

"Yeah." Yan Yiyi responded and turned to look at the willow tree. She indeed vaguely saw a person standing on it. He seemed to be paying attention to the movements in the Yu Mansion and did not notice that she had left.

Seven minutes later, Yan Yiyi came to Master Fan's yard. Yan Yiyi jumped down from the wall and walked to the stone table. The two people in invisible state could not see each other.

"Aye, I'm here."

Xin Ye curled his lips. Although he couldn't see where his wife was, he could tell roughly where she was by the sound of her voice and looked towards where Yan Yiyi was.

"Okay, shall we start now?"

"Correct."

Xin Ye stood up and found a corner, took off the invisibility talisman, immediately changed into Kidd's outfit, then put on a large black cloak, flew to the top of the wall, and quickly put the black cloak into the space.

While Xin Ye was changing his clothes, Yan Yiyi walked into Master Fan's bedroom openly and put the valuable things inside into the bedroom in front of the servants who were guarding there.

"Ah! Ji De is here!" the maid screamed in horror, her scream was even more frightening than when she discovered a murder scene.

Upon hearing this, Master Fan and the others rushed out immediately, only to run into a tall white figure standing on the wall with one hand in his trouser pocket.

He was dressed in a strange white outfit, with a white cloak fluttering in the wind, which made the men there stunned. They really thought that such a man was so damn handsome!

I didn't expect that such alternative clothes would look so good when worn. A man like this really seems to be out of tune with this world.

Is he really an immortal?
