Lord Yan, The Little Ancestor Has Fallen Off The Horse Again!-Chapter 32 Sleepless Night

That evening, Yun Yue returned to Lin Family’s residence and bolted the door early.

Her wet hair was a tangled mess as she casually wiped it with a dry towel.

Sitting at the desk, she booted up the bulky computer with her legs crossed, sipping on the brewed coffee.

She had secretly added sugar, making it sickeningly sweet.

But surprisingly, it tasted good.

"Have you arrived?" she lazily leaned back in her chair, holding her smartphone, her fingertips lightly tapping on its thick back cover, her eyebrows raised boldly, her posture unrestrained.

"Yes, when should we make our move?" Mo Fan, dressed in a black special agent suit, sat in a modified bulletproof vehicle, sleek and fierce.

At that moment, they were on a street next to the Weapon Association headquarters, where few residents lived, making it very desolate with dim streetlights.

Yun Yue checked the time. The Weapon Association was heavily guarded, and at 11:50 PM, everyone inside would go for dinner, time when staff movements peaked, with a ten-minute guard shift interval.

"You can now enter through the ventilation duct I have marked for you. Find an opportunity to blend in. There’s a ten-minute dinner and guard shift interval from 11:50 PM to midnight, when personnel movements are at their maximum, and the guards are most lax."

Yun Yue’s voice was cool and composed, her expression three parts serious.

"Remember, you must retrieve the item, and everyone must get out safely. Keep in contact at all times; I’ll cover you."

Yun Yue’s tone was decisive. The computer screen had shifted to black, with bytes dancing across it.

She put on her headset, placed her cellphone beside her, and her delicate fingers tapped swiftly on the keyboard, producing crisp and pleasing sounds.

Mo Fan, Xiao Bai, and Pino all put on Bluetooth headsets and equipped themselves with their weapons, then neatly exited the vehicle and entered the ventilation duct.

The three synchronized their watches. It was ten o’clock sharp.

They still had over an hour to prepare.

"Xiao Bai, you take care of cutting off the power, including the backup power. Mo Fan, go to the lab to draw attention. Pino, you steal the Diamond."

Her eyes were as deep as the stars. As she operated the computer, she assigned tasks, water dripping from her hair down her cheeks onto the floor, like raindrops on a cold, radiant white rose.

Breath concealed, her stance bold.

"Yes."

"OKOK."

All three simultaneously responded. Pino’s green eyes shimmered with excitement.

11:30.

"You can go in now. I’ll keep an eye on your positions," Yun Yue said, watching the three blinking red dots on the computer.

The three of them entered the ventilation duct together.

The Weapon Association’s lab was underground, the Diamond hidden on the second sub-level.

11:40.

They split up and started their respective tasks.

Mo Fan and Xiao Bai were trained by Yun Yue, their skills needing no explanation.

Pino, being the top thief, outclassed them in both speed and adaptability.

11:50.

"Xiao Bai, cut the power."

"Got it." Xiao Bai’s fair, pretty face was full of mischief. He had already sabotaged the backup power supply, pulling out a bottle of mineral water and pouring it over.

The fuse box hissed, and then the surroundings plunged into darkness, throwing the entire Weapon Association into chaos.

Soon, an alarm blared from the lab.

"Damn it, someone is stealing lab secrets! Everyone, follow me!"

A crowd headed towards the lab, a slew of soldiers armed with guns trailing behind.

From a corner, Pino watched them all leave, moving through the hallways like a ghost.

Two minutes later, he reached his target, wearing a pair of black sunglasses.

He clicked his tongue.

His figure was spectral, his speed astonishing, as he maneuvered through laser beams flawlessly.

He could come and go as he pleased in the International Police’s high-security prisons; what was a mere National Association to him?

"The main gate’s code is cracked, hurry up."

Yun Yue’s hands moved extremely fast; no one could see what she had typed.

She hacked into the Weapon Association’s internal website and surveillance footage, and planted a virus. These actions alone were enough to exhaust the people at the Weapon Association— they probably hadn’t yet realized this was a diversion.

She cracked the passwords for the laboratory and the storage room, which allowed Mo Fan to swipe a lot of confidential materials.

Pino walked into the storage room and took all the Diamonds, about thirty jin, and then grabbed a few more items before leaving the storage room.

Although the items were heavy, they didn’t slow him down; his speed remained very fast.

"Xiao Bai, head to Zone B to meet up with Pino; Mo Fan, you exit the lab and continue creating chaos."

Upon receiving their orders, the two split up and started their operations.

Five minutes later, the three people left the Weapon Association, looking relaxed and smug.

These fools probably were still guarding the lab, not knowing the warehouse had been robbed.

"Head to Lan City, take them to the usual place," Yun Yue said, sucking on a candy and stretching languidly.

She had destroyed the nearby surveillance cameras, and the car’s license plates were fake, making it impossible to trace any clues.

She closed her laptop and sent Nan Jingchen a message.

He replied with an emoji.

Yun Yue, slightly disgusted, exited the chat.

**

In the wee hours,

it was destined to be a sleepless night.

The higher-ups in Beijing were all woken up by phone calls.

"Someone broke into the Weapon Association?! Stole lab secrets?"

"What?! All the Diamonds stolen?!"

Hearing this news, some felt as if thunder had struck them, collapsing onto their beds, their good days were over.

They might be able to save their official positions if only lab secrets were stolen.

But the Diamonds were indispensable materials for weapons research and invention; the entire country could only produce so much each year.

With all of them stolen, one could imagine what would happen.

Everyone at the Weapon Association was terrified for their own safety.

At six in the morning, at the Lan City Suburb,

a robot waited outside a villa.

She and Xiao Bai were both curious about who exactly lived inside this villa.

The surroundings were as impregnable as a fortress, and this robot was highly precise.

Pino’s eyes sparkled as he looked at the robot.

He handed over the items to the robot and didn’t linger.

Mo Fan watched Pino defensively.

This guy was acting up again.

But if he dared steal from this villa, the boss would definitely not let him off.

She and Xiao Bai took turns delivering supplies to this villa every week; it was always this robot that came out to fetch the items.

Quite advanced, it could even speak.

The first time they visited, it had mistaken them for enemies, instantly transforming into a machine gun and was loaded with explosives, which scared the hell out of them.

If Pino dared to steal this robot, he would likely be blown to bits.

The next morning, Yun Yue’s eyes were bloodshot, her demeanor ill and fierce, exuding malevolence and ruthlessness.

Lin Xuanze dared not approach her.

Throughout the class, Yun Yue was asleep, the kind that couldn’t be woken up.

Zhang Ziyue thought she had been out committing theft the previous night.

When the first period ended, Zhang Ziyue woke her up; her heart pounding, afraid that upon waking, Yun Yue might take a chair and smash it on her head.

Her eyes were full of blood vessels, terrifyingly red as if filled with blood.

Zhang Ziyue, cautiously, pointed outside, "The school counselor is looking for you."
