The warehouse firefighter followed Lin Tian around the containers, going further and further off track.

"Bro, you wouldn't be deceiving me, would you?" The warehouse firefighter eyed Lin Tian ahead warily and stopped walking.

"Why would I lie to you?" Sensing the suspicion growing in the other man, Lin Tian knew he couldn't delay any longer.

"You said you'd take me to find women? Where are they?"

Lin Tian pointed at the container ahead and said, "Just around the corner!"

With that, he didn't care if the firefighter was following and strode forward.

The firefighter thought that since he was here anyway, he might as well take a look. If it turned out to be true, wouldn't he miss an exciting show by leaving now?

Continuing onward, the firefighter turned a corner and saw Lin Tian grinning ominously at him.

"You..." The firefighter barely got the word out before a fist the size of a sandbag came crashing toward his face.

"Bang!"

The punched firefighter clutched his nose in pain, bending over.

Without a word, Lin Tian delivered a chop to the man's neck.

The man slumped to the ground, unconscious.

"There's no such thing as a free lunch!" Lin Tian muttered to himself, "If something seems too good to be true, it usually is!"

Soon, Lin Tian started taking off his clothes, yes, his own clothes.

Taking off his own clothes wasn't enough; he needed to take off the other's clothes too!

If someone were watching, they might think Lin Tian was about to do something inappropriate to this male firefighter.

The saying goes: men and women are for procreation, but male-male is true love!

After removing the man's clothes, Lin Tian quickly donned the blue uniform himself.

His plan was to impersonate a firefighter to enter the red warehouse and investigate without arousing suspicion.

Only this way could he ensure nothing would go wrong.

The first step was already successful; next, he had to fool the two guards at the front of the red warehouse.

When it comes to trickery?

Lin Tian would rank second to no one!

He put on the uniform, pulled his cap low, and walked toward the red warehouse.

"Mr. Li, here for another fire inspection?" One guard greeted cheerfully as Lin Tian entered the red warehouse.

"I'm not Mr. Li!" Lin Tian responded.

Mr. Li was naturally the man previously knocked out; Lin Tian had seen his ID badge, which read Li Gang.

"Huh, I just saw Li Gang on duty. How come it's someone else now?" The guard's smile faded.

Lin Tian explained, "I'm new here. Mr. Li had something to do this afternoon, so I'm covering for him!"

Fortunately, it was already midday, so this excuse seemed plausible enough.

"Oh, that's how it is!" The guard immediately took out a cigarette and offered it, "What's your surname, bro? Please look out for me in the future!"

"In a warehouse like this, you should smoke less, and use power sources sparingly!" Lin Tian politely refused.

"Right, right, my memory's terrible!" The guard patted his head, grinning sheepishly.

"I'll go in for the inspection now!" Lin Tian said, heading toward the red warehouse.

Despite his calm exterior, Lin Tian was incredibly nervous inside.

Am I acting well enough?

Shouldn't raise any suspicion, right?

"Go easy on us, little bro. I'll give you a red envelope when you come out!" The guard said quickly as Lin Tian stepped in for the inspection.

If the fire inspection fails, the warehouse would be shut down until corrective measures are completed, creating massive trouble.

No company wants a failed fire inspection.

"Got it!" Lin Tian replied, slowly walking into the red warehouse.

As for the guard, he stood at the warehouse door, watching Lin Tian intently as he entered.

Feeling someone watching him, Lin Tian didn't touch anything inside but squinted his eyes to examine each box carefully.

The boxes were filled with sets of cosmetics, shampoo, facial cleanser, body wash, and some face masks.

There was nothing but these items, no anomalies.

"Could I have guessed wrong?" Lin Tian clicked his tongue, continuing further inside.

While walking, he pointed at a power source on the wall, playacting: "Try not to use this switch too much, it's surrounded by cardboard boxes and could catch fire easily!"

"Right, right!" The guard at the warehouse door nodded repeatedly.

Lin Tian continued deeper into the warehouse, growing colder inside with each step.

"Where could the things be hidden? Could Wang Quan have other smuggling methods?"

As Lin Tian pondered, his eyelids suddenly twitched.

He saw a dark object suddenly come into view, filling him with joy.

In a box, beneath a layer of facial cleanser, was a pitch-black bronze cauldron, surrounded by sponges and padding materials, clearly meant to prevent artifacts from being damaged during transit.

Soon, Lin Tian found that there were artifacts at the bottom of every box.

These artifacts were mixed with cosmetics, pressed at the bottom. Even if someone inspected the products, they would never find what was stashed below.

It was evident that Wang Quan exercised great caution in these dealings.

After circling the warehouse, Lin Tian clearly identified ten large artifacts and three small ones, totaling thirteen.

His heart seethed with anger at Wang Quan's disgraceful conduct.

Yet on the surface, he acted nonchalant as he returned to the warehouse entrance, advising the guard: "The weather's windy lately, it's best not to smoke carelessly!"

"Right, right!" The guard nodded repeatedly, quickly pulling a red envelope from his pocket and handing it to Lin Tian, "First time meeting you, brother. Please accept this small gesture!"

Glancing at the bulging red envelope, and seeing no reason not to, Lin Tian accepted it.

Stashing the envelope in his pocket, Lin Tian said courteously, "No one will be inspecting the fire controls anytime soon, but you should still be careful!"

"Understood! Understood!" The guard nodded vigorously.

Lin Tian casually walked out of the red warehouse, crammed the envelope into his pocket, and stepped into the container.

After taking off the blue uniform and putting on his own clothes, he went to find Bai Shishi.

"What took you so long? Where did you go?" Bai Shishi, who was waiting at the Xinhai Port entrance, asked Lin Tian curiously when she saw him strolling over.

"I took a tour of the warehouse and found that there are indeed artifacts inside, all hidden in boxes filled with cosmetics!"

Lin Tian paused and continued, "It seems my suspicion was correct, Wang Quan targeted the beauty company because he could discreetly ship those artifacts out of the country using the company's business!"

"Despicable!"

Hearing this news, Bai Shishi stomped her feet in anger, blaming herself for being an absentee proprietor and failing to supervise everything properly at the company.

Otherwise, how could such things happen?
