The night was dark and the moonlight was blocked by the tall buildings in the city.

The high-tech building in the center of the city stands in the night like a cold giant tower. The exterior wall of the building shines with a metallic luster, like a huge mirror, reflecting the prosperity and bustle of the city.

This high-tech building is brightly lit, a perfect combination of luxury and modern technology. The marble floor shines brightly under the light, and the surrounding walls are decorated with exquisite murals and artworks, showing the owner's extraordinary taste.

The crystal chandelier on the ceiling emits a soft light, illuminating the entire hall as if it were daytime. Smart machines work quietly in the corners, keeping the environment clean and comfortable.

In the center of the hall, there is a huge mahogany desk, on which various high-tech devices are neatly placed.

Sitting behind the desk was a middle-aged fat man in gorgeous clothes. He was wearing a custom-made high-end suit with a sparkling diamond collar pin on his collar, showing his extraordinary wealth and status. The fat man had a confident smile on his face and a shrewd light in his eyes.

At this time, the door of the hall quietly opened, and a man in black walked in quietly. His figure looked particularly thin under the light, and he wore a black mask on his face, revealing only a pair of cold eyes. The man in black walked to the fat man's desk and bowed respectfully.

"Boss, I brought the things." The man in black had a low and hoarse voice, sounding mysterious.

The fat man's smile brightened when he heard this. He waved his hand, signaling the man in black to come closer. "Very good, very good. You did a great job. Let me see that treasure."

The man in black took out a small box from his arms. The surface of the box was engraved with complex patterns, which looked simple and mysterious. He placed the box on the fat man's desk and gently opened it. Inside the box, there was a jade pendant with a faint glow. The jade pendant was transparent and exuded an indescribable mysterious atmosphere.

A gleam of greed flashed in the fat man's eyes. He carefully picked up the jade pendant and examined it carefully. "It is indeed the legendary treasure. We have really made a fortune this time."

The man in black nodded and continued, "It is said that this jade pendant contains a huge secret. Whoever possesses it will gain infinite power and wealth. Boss, what should we do with this treasure?"

The fat man pondered for a moment, then a sinister smile appeared on his face. "This kind of treasure must be hidden in the safest place. Don't worry, I have my own arrangements for this matter. Your mission has been completed, and leave the rest to me."

The man in black nodded, bowed and said, "Boss, you are wise. We will definitely follow your instructions."

The fat man nodded with satisfaction, took out a thick stack of banknotes from the drawer and handed it to the man in black. "This is your reward. You did a good job. If this operation is successful, you will get more missions and higher rewards in the future."

The man in black took the money and smiled with satisfaction. "Thank you, boss. We will do our best to complete every task."

The fat man waved his hand, signaling the man in black to leave. "Okay, you can go. Remember, what happened tonight must not be leaked, otherwise you will bear the consequences."

The man in black nodded, turned around and left the hall. His figure looked particularly lonely under the light, like a ghost in the dark night. The hall returned to silence, leaving only the fat man alone in his thoughts.

The fat man held the jade pendant, and his heart was filled with excitement. He knew that this jade pendant would bring him unimaginable wealth and power. He stood up, walked to a corner of the hall, and pressed a hidden button. The wall quietly opened, revealing a secret passage.

The fat man walked into the passage and came to a secret basement. The basement was decorated extremely luxuriously, with various gems inlaid on the walls, emitting a dazzling light. In the center was a huge safe, and the most advanced security equipment was installed around it to ensure that no one could easily enter.

The fat man carefully put the jade pendant into the safe, with a smug smile on his face. "With this jade pendant, my position will be more secure. Anyone who dares to go against me will pay a heavy price."

He closed the safe, left the basement, and returned to the hall on the ground floor. The fat man sat at his desk, lit a cigar, took a deep puff, and a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.

"Tonight is a great night. Everything is under my control." The fat man muttered to himself, as if declaring victory to himself.

However, the fat man didn't know that although tonight's action was successful, it triggered a more intense battle.

The gears of fate have begun to turn, and the future is full of unknowns and dangers. The battle between justice and evil is bound to set off a storm that will shake the world.

The morning sun shone into the room through the window, and the air was filled with a fresh scent. Lina stood in front of the table. The place where the treasure was originally placed was now empty. Her eyes widened and her face turned pale in an instant.

"My things are missing!" Lina's voice was sharp and urgent, which startled Ye Fan, who was sorting his equipment on the side, and he immediately raised his head.

Ye Fan walked to Lina's side, looked at the empty table, and frowned, "When did you find out?"

"Just now, I wanted to check the jade pendant, but found that it was gone." Lina said nervously, with a hint of anxiety in her eyes.

Ye Fan frowned and thought, then comforted him: "Don't worry, maybe you just put it in the wrong place. Look for it carefully again."

Lina shook her head, "I'm sure it's always been here."

Ye Fan was silent for a moment, and suddenly thought of what happened last night, "Did anyone come here last night?"

Lina slapped her forehead suddenly, as if she remembered something. "I slept a little uneasily last night, and I seemed to hear some strange noises, but I thought it was the wind at the time, so I didn't pay much attention to it."

Ye Fan's eyes became sharp, "It looks like someone sneaked in at night and stole the jade pendant."

Lina's expression became uglier and uglier, with a hint of panic in her eyes. "That jade pendant is very important to me, I must get it back."

Ye Fan nodded, "Do you know who did it?"

Lina hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke: "The people who are chasing me are a powerful dark organization called 'Shadow Blade'. This organization is huge and specializes in various illegal activities, including assassination, theft and smuggling. They have been tracking me for the jade pendant."

Ye Fan listened quietly, with a cold light flashing in his eyes, "What is so special about that jade pendant?"

Lina sighed and said in a low voice, "That jade pendant is not just a treasure, it is actually a powerful key that can open a legendary secret realm. According to legend, that secret realm contains endless wealth and powerful power. Shadow Blade has been chasing me for this secret realm and wants to take the jade pendant away."

Ye Fan nodded, his eyes firm, "In this case, we can't let them succeed. We have to find them and take back the jade pendant."

Lina looked at Ye Fan gratefully, with a glimmer of hope in her eyes, "Thank you, Ye Fan. Without you, I really don't know what to do."

Ye Fan smiled slightly, "You're welcome, we are friends, and we should help each other. The most important thing now is to find their traces."

Lina thought for a while and said, "Their actions have always been secretive, but I know they have a secret base in the city. Perhaps we can start from there."

Ye Fan nodded, "Okay, let's set off immediately."

The two quickly packed up their things and left the room. Walking on the streets of the city, Lina was still nervous, but with Ye Fan's company, she felt more at ease.
