Chapter 921: Chapter 604: Secret Room (One Update)_2

Mu Lin silently gave the two a glance, a helpless smile on her face, as she reminded them, "You know, this place shouldn’t be a desert." Therefore, mirages, which belong to legends in the desert, were basically impossible to encounter here.

We might as well accept reality.

Mu Lin said that her grandfather’s subordinates were really one more interesting than the next, their ability to be silly was stronger than others.

"So... Sister-in-law," hearing Mu Lin’s words, Wu Ya, who was desperately swallowing, asked incredulously, "The thing we’re seeing in front of us, it can’t really be... Golden Mountain, right?" Golden Mountain, isn’t that something from comics, books, or TV shows?

Mu Lin’s lips curved slightly, "Probably, and not just one."

"My god!" They needed a bolt of thunder to strike them awake – had they entered the national gold vault?

"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven..." Wu Ya counted foolishly, "There are actually fifteen gold mountains here, made of stacked gold bars, nearly as tall as they are."

"How much could that be worth!" How did they get so much gold! "Even gold shops don’t have this much, right?" They were really wondering, "Yu Xiongman must really love gold."

Mu Lin’s lips curved more profoundly, "If he wants it, there are plenty of people willing to give it." Even Mu Lin was shocked; she knew he was greedy but never imagined he could be greedy to such an extent, not only the gold mountains but also many antiques.

Mu Lin expressed that this was the first time she had seen someone dozens of times wealthier than herself, the shock in her heart was indescribable, too complex.

However, Mu Lin felt that if a certain person above continued to live, even the heavens might not be able to stand it.

"Sister-in-law." After the shock, Xigua walked to Mu Lin’s side, "What should we do?" Before coming, they had never imagined that they would see so much gold; staying here any longer would probably make him shine as if he were made of gold too.

This incident was really serious – even the Boss would not have expected it.

"Let’s go up and ask Jing Chen." Mu Lin really wasn’t good at dealing with these things.

But seeing all this, Mu Lin finally understood why Yu Xiongman was willing to keep so much cash in the names of his various lovers, because... even if he might not get it back later, he still... wasn’t short of money.

Money, having enough is good, Mu Lin couldn’t imagine why anyone would want to store so much. You can’t take it with you when you’re born or when you die; ultimately, it can only be exchanged with your life.

Is it really worth it?

"Let’s go, let’s head up," Mu Lin said, "With the existence of these items, I think all the evidence we’ve been looking for before, whether we have it or not, doesn’t matter anymore." It didn’t matter now.

Xigua nodded.

Mu Lin’s gaze swept around, and she took two steps forward, walking around in the secret room, but when she reached the opposite middle, she suddenly stopped in her tracks.

She lifted her foot and gave a slight kick.

"As expected." Her guess was correct; having solved the mechanism in the front, it was easy to find the one in the back.

"Sister-in-law, what did you find?" Finally snapping back to reality, Wu Ya hurried towards Mu Lin’s position, her expression telling him that she must have discovered something again.

Mu Lin looked at the two and said, "This should be the exit of the underground gold vault; if I’m not wrong, it should lead to the outside." That also meant one could also enter from the outside, probably a path specially used for transporting these items. It looked like Yu Xiongman’s escape route in case things went south, and he even wasn’t afraid of running out of money. As long as he could disguise himself, he could live very comfortably behind the scenes in China, no need to flee abroad; in China, he could still lead a luxurious life with plenty of lovers.

It was just too bad Yu Xiongman never imagined that one day, he would be so rudely cornered in bed.

Mu Lin acted, always so unexpectedly.

An exit to the outside!

Xigua and Wu Ya were shocked; Mu Lin reached out and pressed lightly, and just like above, a door seam opened up again. Wu Ya reached out to open it, and before them appeared a long passage, about half a person’s height.

"I wonder where this leads?" Xigua frowned.

"Probably to a less populated area on the outskirts." It couldn’t possibly be inside the villa area, otherwise, it would have been discovered long ago.

"We might need to act quickly and decisively tomorrow," Mu Lin always felt that there might be more people aware of this place than just Yu Xiongman, perhaps others as well.

But that was just her intuition, "I’ll go back and tell Jing Chen about this place. Under normal circumstances, you’ll probably need to be on standby first thing tomorrow morning." The wealth here was too vast; Mu Lin guessed that the higher-ups might assign Jing Chen with the responsibility.

After all, this was originally their case, and if given to someone else, that old gentleman would probably not feel at ease.

"I understand, Sister-in-law." The seriousness of this case went far beyond their initial encounter here.

From the moment they stepped in, Mu Lin’s brow had been furrowed nonstop; she paused and looked at Xigua and the others, "Close the door; it’s time we went up." They had been out long enough; the people up there were probably getting worried.

The main thing was, "There’s still one person up there waiting for me to deal with." They couldn’t go home until he was taken care of.

After speaking, Mu Lin turned and headed upstairs, with Xigua hurrying to follow.

Hearing Mu Lin’s last words also caused Xigua’s expression to tighten in an instant.

Someone definitely needed to be dealt with, and there could be no mercy.

The next moment, Xigua suddenly turned his head back, grabbed the dawdling Wu Ya, who didn’t know what he was lingering over, and dragged him upstairs.
