Siheyuan: tomb robbing? I am serious about hunting.

Chapter 301 He must seize this opportunity!

And that baby was his nephew.

Only then did he understand why his elder brother wanted to leave the village and why he wanted to join the "Shadow".

It was for his family, to protect them.

Chu Tian's eyes became moist, and he became more determined to complete the task.

He continued to look for the code, and finally, he found a diary in a drawer.

The diary records my eldest brother's experiences over the years, as well as the password to the safe.

Chu Tian entered the password tremblingly, and the safe opened.

Inside was a document that was exactly what he was looking for.

He carefully put away the documents and prepared to leave.

Just then, he heard footsteps outside the door.

somebody is coming!

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and Chu Tian's heart was in his throat. He quickly hid behind a huge bookcase, holding his breath, not daring to move.

The door opened and a tall figure walked in. In the faint moonlight, Chu Tian recognized him as the leader of "Shadow" - a cold man known as "Night Owl".

Ye Xiao walked to the desk and picked up the photo, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes. He gently stroked the woman's face in the photo and whispered, "Soon, we will be reunited."

Chu Tian was shocked. Could it be that Ye Xiao was also planning to leave "Shadow"?

Night Owl put down the photo, walked to the safe, entered the password, and opened the safe.

He didn't seem to notice that the documents had been taken away, and he took out a delicate little box.

There was a ring in the box, a diamond ring shining brightly.

Ye Xiao picked up the ring, put it on his ring finger, and a happy smile appeared on his face.

"I'll propose to you when you come back," he whispered to the photo.

Chu Tian then understood that Ye Xiao was not trying to leave "Shadow", but to gain more control over the organization for the sake of his family and his lover.

Chu Tian felt sick. This man, wearing human skin, was doing things that were against the will of heaven and earth. His so-called love was just a fig leaf for his ambition.

Night Owl closed the safe, turned around and left the office.

Chu Tian walked out from behind the bookcase and took a deep breath. He knew that he had to leave here as soon as possible.

He slipped quietly out of the office and returned along the same route.

Just as he was about to reach the exit, he suddenly heard a low shout from behind him: "Stop!"

Chu Tian's heart sank suddenly, he was discovered!

He turned around and saw Night Owl standing behind him with a gun in his hand, the muzzle of the gun pointed at his chest.

"Who are you?" Night Owl asked coldly, "What are you doing here?"

Chu Tian knew that he had no way to escape.

He took a deep breath and said calmly: "I'm here to take back what belongs to me."

"Something that belongs to you?" Night Owl sneered, "Who do you think you are?"

"I'm Chu Tian," Chu Tian raised his head and looked directly into Ye Xiao's eyes, "Chu Feng's younger brother."

Ye Xiao's expression changed slightly. He obviously didn't expect that Chu Feng had a younger brother.

"Where is your elder brother?" asked Night Owl.

"He's dead." Chu Tian said, "He was killed by you."

A hint of surprise flashed across Night Owl's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.

"If he's dead, he's dead," Night Owl said coldly, "He's just a traitor."

"He is not a traitor!" Chu Tian shouted angrily, "He was forced to join you in order to protect his family!"

"Shut up!" Night Owl shouted, "You are not qualified to judge him!"

"I do!" Chu Tian looked at Ye Xiao fearlessly, "I'm his younger brother, I know him better than you!"

A hint of murderous intent flashed in Ye Xiao's eyes, and he raised his gun and pointed it at Chu Tian's head.

"Since you are his brother, then die with him!"

At this moment, a woman's voice suddenly sounded: "Stop!"

A woman in black walked out of the darkness, also holding a gun in her hand, pointing the gun at Night Owl.

"Put down your gun!" the woman said coldly.

Night Owl turned his head and looked at the woman, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

"Who are you?" asked Night Owl.

“It doesn’t matter who I am,” the woman said. “What matters is that you can’t kill him.”

"Who do you think you are?" Night Owl sneered, "How dare you order me around?"

"I'm not ordering you," the woman said, "I'm just telling you that if you kill him, you won't live."

Ye Xiao's face became gloomy. He looked at the woman, then at Chu Tian, ​​and a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes.

"Who are you?" Night Owl asked again.

The woman didn't answer, but just looked at him coldly.

There was a tense atmosphere in the air, like a taut string that could break at any time.

Chu Tian's heart was beating violently. He didn't know who this woman was, nor did he know why she wanted to save him.

But he knew that this was an opportunity, a chance to escape.

He must seize this opportunity!

Chu Tian held his breath, feeling as if time had frozen. Night Owl's hesitation, the woman's appearance, all of this was like a sudden rainstorm, pulling him out of the abyss of despair.

Ye Xiao's eyes glanced back and forth between the woman and Chu Tian. He gripped the gun tightly, and the veins on the back of his hand bulged, showing his inner struggle.

"Who are you?!" Night Owl's voice was almost squeezed out from between his teeth, with a barely perceptible tremor.

The woman still had no expression on her face. She slowly raised the gun in her hand, pointing the muzzle steadily at Night Owl's head.

"I'll say it again, put down your gun." The woman's voice was cold and firm, leaving no room for negotiation.

The stalemate lasted for a full minute, and every second seemed as long as a century. Finally, Night Owl's hand slowly loosened, and the gun fell to the ground with a dull sound.

Chu Tian's heart almost jumped out of his chest, and he felt like he had been through the gates of hell.

"You win." Night Owl's voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of unwillingness.

The woman said nothing, but just looked at him coldly.

"What do you want?" asked Night Owl.

"I want you to let him go." The woman pointed at Chu Tian and said.

"Impossible!" Ye Xiao raised his head suddenly, "He is Chu Feng's younger brother, he must die!"

"If you kill him, you won't survive." The woman's tone was cold, without any emotion.

"You..." Night Owl glared at the woman, his eyes full of hatred.

“I don’t want to repeat myself for the third time,” the woman said. “Put down your weapon and let him go.”

Night Owl took a deep breath and tried to control his emotions. He knew that if he continued to resist, he would really die here.

He glared at Chu Tian fiercely, then turned and left.

The woman watched Night Owl's back disappear into the darkness, then slowly put down the gun.

"Are you okay?" The woman turned around and asked Chu Tian.
