The Rise of Otaku-Chapter 311 - Thief
With tenacious effort, Little Rat finally defeated Zhou Yu, the demon king, on the tabletop battlefield, and successfully obtained the Flaming Butterfly card. After Little Rat gave the beautiful flaming butterfly to Xiao Lu, the blushed Xiao Lu gave Little Rat a sweet kiss, making Little Rat unable to stop smiling. The poor Zhou Yu, not only failed on the battlefield, but he also suffered from the critical strike from this scene.
It was a pity that Little Rat also couldn’t smile for too long.
After he got the Flaming Butterfly card, he became the focus of the attention of the class. In this world, apart from brother Yu, only he had this kind of high-tech toy, which naturally made him feel very proud.
However, soon after, Little Rat noticed that something wasn’t right. Some strange people came to his door and said that they wanted to buy the card at a high price. The bid was so high that it could even buy a single apartment in the city. They even said that they could continue to add more if he was not satisfied.
The parents of Little Rat were a little bit tempted, after all, it was just a game card, and since Boy Yu gave it to their son already, he would not have any opinions.
But, how could Little Rat be willing to sell it? The other party’s bid was so exaggerated that it meant that this thing should be very valuable, not to mention that this was Xiao Lu’s favorite thing. Because Brother Yu had a lot of such cards, and he didn’t know that it was so valuable at that time, so he asked him for this card, otherwise, he would never have asked him for it.
Therefore, Little Rat decided to return the card. Anyway, every time when it ran out of electricity, he still had to send it back to the amusement park to ask the brother Yu to recharge it. So he could just keep the card in brother Yu’s place, and in the future, he could wait until the weekend and take Xiao Lu to the park to see it.
Unfortunately, Little Rat was still a step slower.
Normally, Little Rat lived in the school, and originally, he planned to return the card after the holiday, but unexpectedly, on Thursday evening, the dormitory was burgled. Early the next morning, when the students in the dormitory woke up, they found that the entire dormitory was turned upside down, obviously being visited by thieves.
Looking back now, no one knew who bought a bunch of snacks in the dormitory last night. After everyone happily shared them, they couldn’t remember anything later on.
If the thief had prepared in advance, then this was a very purposeful theft, otherwise, it would not have been so well prepared.
Little Rat then suddenly remembered the virtual card he hid in the cabinet. He ran over and opened it, and discovered it was also a mess inside. Moreover, the flaming butterfly inside had disappeared.
The situation instantly became very urgent, so Little Rat immediately reported to the teacher. Hearing that the stolen card was worth hundreds of thousands Chinese Yuan, the teacher also became anxious and immediately chose to call the police.
For a time, the theft incident caused a lot of commotion.
Zhou Yu was informed immediately because the police needed to confirm the value of the card, so the original owner Zhou Yu was contacted as soon as they got the report.
After knowing the matter, Zhou Fu criticized Zhou Yu seriously. The actual value of these cards was not so high, but the technology hidden behind it was worth millions of Chinese Yuan. The person behind him trusted him and gave the card and everything to him. But he just gave it to a child!?
In case the technology was leaked, how was he going to explain it to the other party? What if the other party was angry, the cooperation between the two parties would no longer be possible, then how was he going to calculate the losses?
After criticizing Zhou Yu, Zhou Fu specifically explained the seriousness of the matter to the police, and told them that it could not be handled as an ordinary theft. When the police heard that the technology for the stolen property might be worth millions or possibly billions of Chinese Yuan, they didn’t dare to take it lightly. The elites and experts of the provincial capital were deployed to thoroughly investigate this commercial espionage case.
The reporters immediately followed up the story, and after reporting it extensively, the internet exploded with discussions.
If it was the domestic thieves, sooner or later, they would capture them.
But what if the cards were sold abroad?
It was not without this possibility. After all, holographic games were so cutting-edge technology, and it was not a strange thing to be targeted by major technology companies in the world. The amusement park was said to be a Dragon’s den, and no one could find any news from it, but how difficult could it be to steal from a child? Moreover, some insiders revealed that someone had tried to buy the card from the child’s parents, and the offer was also very impressive.
So no matter whether the thief wanted to sell this themselves or they were entrusted by others, the value of the lost card was inestimable. People could only hope that the police would be able to catch the thieves quickly. Otherwise, the losses would be unimaginable.
The news of the lost card has attracted more and more attention.
In a private house in the provincial capital, two strange people were playing with the card that has caused a huge commotion outside.
“I didn’t expect that this little card would be so important! The other party actually paid only 500,000 Yuan. Do they think we are beggars? Big Brother, we can’t sell it so easily! ”
The man called big brother sat on the sofa, drinking beer happily. He has been a thief for decades. This was the easiest and most profitable job he has done. However, this didn’t mean that he would keep his promise and sell this important card to the original customer. At this time, if he didn’t raise the price, he would be a fool.
“Does Your big brother I look like a stupid person? But Mr. Zhu is not someone you can mess with easily. If other people’s bid is not high enough to allow us to run away, we still have to talk to Mr. Zhu, at least, we need to get one million! ”
One million, for those two thieves, this was already a very big number. Once they got money, they could completely stop doing this line of work, and started doing something new.
In terms of if they were really going to stop doing it after this one, no one really knew.
And just as the two brothers imagined their future after getting the money, in a world that they could not see, there was a strange young man staring at the flaming butterfly card.
“Huh? Isn’t this the latest toy that my future father-in-law made? How did it appear in this place? ”
That’s right, this strange young man was Yi Hu, the flying stupid bird. Today, he was tracking down a treasure called “Colorful Flower”, hoping that it would please his future father-in-law, but he didn’t expect that he would find the stolen card here.
After listening to the conversation between the two thieves, he immediately understood that his future father-in-law had been robbed by them, and this card seemed to be quite important. If he could help his future father-in-law to take it back, he might win the heart of his goddess.
Since this card had the ACG world’s attribute, normally, Yi Hu could move it. And with the skill of flying stupid bird, he could steal it without them knowing it.
However, things were not so simple.
