Chapter 74: Is there a thief in the house?
"200 kilograms of dumbbells! Did you see it right? Did you pull it up?" The young man frowned slightly and asked again to confirm.
"I tried pulling it several times! I couldn't lift it even with all my strength. It must really be 200 kilograms." The bald-headed bodyguard nodded hurriedly.
The young man's expression finally changed. He put down his hand that was touching his chin, then stretched out a finger and hooked it, and gently tapped on the desk in the next room, obviously thinking deeply about something.
"200 kilograms, and it's a one-handed dumbbell! With this kind of weight, even if my master came, he probably wouldn't be able to lift it with one hand if he used both his hidden and visible energy at the same time!"
"Is this guy using dumbbells as a two-handed barbell for training?"
"If one can lift it with one hand, then if such a terrifying force hits a person..."
"I've never heard of such a terrifying master in Wenzhou before! I'll have to ask someone about it when I get back." The young man tapped the table with his fingers, thinking a thousand things. He finally jumped up from his seat and ordered the flat-headed bodyguard, "Pack your things! Leave tonight!"
"Ah? Boss? Are we leaving now?" The bald-headed bodyguard was also stunned, because he had just moved in for a few hours and it was almost time to rest at night.
"Well! Let's go now! Move quickly and contact a few cars to come over. When we get to the county town, we can change cars and go back to Shanghai directly. It only takes seven or eight hours to drive from here to Shanghai if we drive fast. We can get there in the middle of the night after a good sleep in the car. We'll leave the yacht here and let Xiao He stay in the county town for a few days. We can drive the yacht back after the typhoon is over." The young man's tone became serious, and he no longer had the calmness he had before.
I used to think that this neighbor, a folk martial artist, was just a coincidence.
But now, when he thought of the other party's unfathomable martial arts, the young man felt uneasy and a little scared.
With such an uncontrollable master who is unknown to be the enemy by his side, not only will his father be unable to sleep, but even he himself will not be able to sleep peacefully.
After all, their family is wealthy and powerful, and he joined an overseas sect while studying abroad. After a long period of time of living in fear, he secretly made many enemies.
In order to eliminate danger, the family is always accompanied by bodyguards even when they go on vacation, and they travel on a private yacht. The entire route is not disclosed to the outside world, which is almost an extreme security measure.
If Chen Jue knew about this young man's weird idea, he would definitely pout and complain secretly, because he is obviously just a harmless little martial arts practitioner!
Is it necessary to be so cautious?
However, the thought processes of these wealthy people are mostly a little different from those of normal people. The levels they usually face are not accessible to ordinary people, so they will naturally complicate simple things.
Even though he knew that Chen Jue had no hostility towards his family, the young man still suggested leaving overnight, purely out of concern for his family's safety.
"Okay, boss! I'll contact the car right away!" The flat-headed bodyguard also heard the young man's urgent tone, and immediately whispered a few words into the microphone on his collar, turned around, went downstairs, and started to act.
Soon, the two small villas that had just been occupied became busy and bustling.
The wealthy family, who had been sitting peacefully and eating, lost interest in sightseeing instantly when they saw their eldest son, who was in charge of the family, was so serious and anxious to return to his home in Shanghai overnight. They packed up their things and changed their clothes, and in less than ten minutes, they got on several business cars that had come from the county town, which were contacted by their bodyguards, and left the seaside fishing village in a hurry.
…
Chen Jue obviously did not expect that the dumbbell he brought for exercise would scare this suspicious wealthy family so much that they checked out and left overnight.
At this time, he was practicing boxing on a fishing boat on the sea of Houya. It took him more than half an hour to perfect the boat boxing skill he had just learned.
Feeling that he still had some strength left, he went back to shore, dived into the water with the stone ball, and practiced Tai Chi for seven or eight minutes before climbing back to shore.
After taking a look and finding that his proficiency in both skills was stuck at (1999/2000), Chen Jue planned to go back and rest for a night. After recovering his strength tomorrow, he would stew the Ten-Ingredient Tonic Soup and fish maw together, and then practice Tai Chi and Thirteen-style Stance Meditation in the villa to avoid the siphon effect that would drain his body.
After getting ashore, he put the stone ball away, picked up the towel he brought with him, wiped his body, wrapped it around himself, and walked slowly along the path behind the cliff back to the villa.
Before he got closer, Chen Jue saw from afar that the whole house of his villa, where he had clearly turned off the lights, was suddenly lit up, and there was a figure walking in the room on the second floor.
"Who is it? Why did you come in without saying hello?"
Chen Dezhong was puzzled and tiptoed to the back door. He pushed it open and took a look. The lights in the living room were on and the door was opened from the front of the yard. A gust of fishy and salty sea breeze came in through the hall, making the green plants in the living room sway continuously.
Glancing at the coffee table and TV cabinet, Chen Jue discovered that his wallet and his charging cell phone were missing. Just as he was about to go upstairs to see what was going on.
The hostess came down from the second floor holding a pile of dirty sheets. Seeing Chen Jue dressed in swimming trunks, she hurriedly said with concern: "Hey! Jue, where have you been? You went swimming so late at night? Put on your clothes quickly, or you will catch a cold!"
"Auntie, it's you! Where is my wallet and cell phone?" Chen Jue let down his guard when he saw that it was the auntie from the B&B.
"I saw that you were not at home, so I put your phone and wallet in the drawer of the bedside table in your room! Auntie told you that when you go out alone, remember to keep your valuables safe!"
"I don't know what's wrong with the rich guy next door. He checked out in the middle of the night after staying for less than a few hours. I had to clean up the room all night! I just needed to change the sheets and quilt covers, so I came over to clean up your room first. I cleaned up the upstairs, and the empty rooms have been covered with dust since you've lived there for several days. There's going to be a typhoon the day after tomorrow, so I won't be able to clean up then. I'm helping you clean up in advance so you can live in a cleaner and more comfortable way."
The hostess at the B&B explained while complaining a few words. It was the first time for her to meet such a weird guest like the rich family next door! They didn't let her have any free time at night!
Holding the changed sheets and throwing them on the sofa in the living room, the homestay aunt took the broom, feather duster started cleaning the living room and kitchen. When she walked to the corner where the dumbbells were placed, she was surprised. She took a look at Chen Jue's angular figure, and knowing that Chen Jue brought them for fitness, she dusted the dumbbells with the feather duster.
Chen Jue knew that the other party was kind-hearted, so he smiled and said, "Thank you, Auntie! Then I'll go take a shower first. I'm a little cold after swimming."
After saying that, she ran to the second floor and took a look at the drawers in the room. Sure enough, her cell phone and wallet were there, and the money and documents in the wallet were not lost. The clothes that were scattered around the room were neatly folded by the aunt and put into the closet in the room. The newly changed sheets and quilt covers exuded the fragrance of laundry detergent.
I went up to the rooftop and looked at the small villa next door, and found that the wealthy family who had just moved in in the afternoon was gone, including their bodyguards. It seemed that they had checked out and left overnight just as the aunt at the B&B had said.
"Forget it! Ignore them and go take a shower first! The sea water will stick to your body and it smells fishy when it dries." Chen Jue was a little confused by the behavior of the wealthy family who had just checked in. Maybe they really had something important to deal with and left in a hurry. He shook his head, not understanding these rich people, and went back to the room to take a hot shower.
Although there were signs that the house had been touched up, Chen Jue subconsciously thought that it was left by the cleaning aunt at the B&B, so he didn't think too much about it.
He didn't notice at all that the villa he was staying in had been searched inside and out, and even his ID information had been recorded.
