The building of the antique market itself is an old-fashioned building many years ago, with very thick walls.

Although it has been renovated later, in the absence of lights, it can only rely on the moonlight shining in from the windows.

However, this negligible amount of moonlight can only illuminate a small area in front of the window, and cannot illuminate the entire venue at all.

After the venue was completely plunged into darkness, both the guests and the staff were stunned, and it took a while to react.

"What's going on?! Why is it suddenly dark?"

"Is there a power outage?"

The darkness magnified the uneasiness in everyone's hearts, and the guests fell into a panic in an instant.

After all, most of the people present were some well-known antique dealers or owners who loved antiques. Once an accident happened, the loss would be unpredictable.

In addition, they usually bring bodyguards no matter where they go, but today because it is Madam's exhibition, they didn't bring any of them.

Thinking of this, the guests present were even more panicked, you glanced at me and shouted.

"What's going on? Is there someone to take care of it!"

"Where's the staff? Where did they go? Why didn't anyone say anything?"

"Hurry up and arrange someone to repair it?"

Seeing this situation, Ning Fan only raised his eyebrows in surprise, but he didn't panic like the others.

But Ning Yizhou and Liang Qi next to them were so frightened that they jumped up on the spot and hugged Ning Fan's arms one by one with great precision in the darkness.

"Old ancestor!! What's going on here?"

"Sister Fan!! What happened?"

Two heavy objects were suddenly hung on his arms, causing Ning Fan's body to fall slightly, and his shoulders suddenly felt like they were about to dislocate.

She looked at the two speechlessly, and suddenly wondered if they really couldn't see it?
Otherwise, how could he hug her so precisely.

Ning Fan wanted to push them away, but they were both grown men after all, and it was useless if she didn't struggle with all her strength.

Her forehead twitched, she gritted her teeth, and her voice squeezed out from between her teeth, "I'll count to three, please let go."

"Otherwise, you should know what will happen?"

Although Ning Fan's expression could not be seen clearly in the dark, Ning Yizhou and Liang Qi could still hear the coldness of Ning Fan's voice.

As for the fate she said, they actually didn't know, but their intuition told them that it was better not to know.

The two reluctantly let go of Ning Fan's arm, but still stood tightly against her.

"Old Ancestor, what happened suddenly?"

Ning Fan gave him a blank look, "The light is broken."

Liang Qi clicked his tongue a few times, "I don't think it's that simple."

Ning Fan became a little interested, "How do you say?"

Seeing Ning Fan's questioning, Liang Qi became excited, "Why doesn't the lamp turn off sooner or later? It must be broken when the Goddess's things come out? This is too coincidental."

Ning Yizhou nodded thoughtfully, "It makes sense, and we haven't seen what the so-called Goddess is, so it's dark, no matter how you look at it, it's not a coincidence."

Listening to the analysis of the two, Ning Fan laughed.

"Not bad, I have grown my brain and know how to analyze."

Although this sentence does not sound like a compliment, to Ning Yizhou and Liang Qi, it is a compliment.

Both of them scratched their heads and smiled, "No wonder I feel itchy, so I have a brain."

The netizens in the live broadcast room were also taken aback by the sudden darkness.

[Fuck, I was fascinated by watching it, and suddenly saw my own big face, and thought the goddess's thing was my face!Scared to death! ! 】

[Hahahaha Although I was also taken aback, the sisters in front are a little too funny! 】

[Being hurt by my big face, I was so scared that I quickly ordered fried chicken to suppress my shock! 】

【So what happened?power cut? 】

[It looks like it is, but what are the dogs doing? Why did Sister Fan grit her teeth and speak up? 】

【Hahaha Sister Fan told them to let them go, wouldn't it be because she was so scared that she hugged Sister Fanhhh】

[The dogs are right in their analysis, it's really a coincidence, it can't be artificial, right? 】

[Isn't that the kind! !The precursor to the appearance of the strange thief, first darken the venue, and then make a stunning appearance! 】

【Ah... the light is broken, is the phantom about to appear? (bushi)]

[? ?He is the Phantom of the Opera, and we are the Phantom of the Auction?Is there a secret passage underground?Ha ha ha ha! 】

The sudden darkness surprised the host standing on the booth.

But after all, I have seen a lot of the market, so I quickly calmed down and picked up the microphone to calm everyone down.

But only then did I realize that the microphone was dead.

He had no choice but to raise his voice, "Everyone, calm down! It should just be a trip, and it will be fixed in a while."

However, the scene was too noisy, and the voice of the host was quickly drowned in the noise of the crowd.

The long-term darkness and uncontrollable development made the guests present even more flustered.

"Since we can't fix it, let us leave!"

"Yes! Let us leave, it's not a problem to wait here!"

"Let's go to the exit!"

Someone instigated it, and everyone followed to the exit.

Although the security guards standing at the door were a little at a loss about the current situation, their professionalism allowed them to quickly react and respond.

They know that what they should do now is to appease everyone's emotions, and leaving like this is not the best solution.

Thinking of this, the security captain quickly issued orders to the other security guards, some to protect the collection, some to repair the circuit, and very few people stayed at the scene to maintain order.

They stood at the door and blocked the guests who wanted to leave.

"Everyone, please stay calm. People have been sent to check the situation now. The circuit will be restored soon, and the finale collection will continue to be displayed."

Hearing that the security guard mentioned the finale collection, the heart that originally wanted to leave became hesitant.

But the guests in front heard what the security guard said, but the ones behind didn't hear them. They still pushed forward and wanted to leave.

The whole venue suddenly fell into chaos, and everyone was pushing and shoving together.

Ning Fan hated such a crowded environment, and she nimbly dodged several people who posted up regardless.

But with so many ordinary people around, she couldn't separate them with her ability.

Just when Ning Fan finally found an open space, he suddenly heard a vicious male voice sounding beside him.

"Tell you to mind your own business!"

At the same time, a force hit her, and she was pushed hard by a pair of hands.

In fact, Ning Fan can avoid it.

She had already sensed that someone was approaching her, with malice that could not be concealed.

But just as he was about to take a step back, Ning Yizhou behind him suddenly jumped up and shouted.

"Don't squeeze my ancestors!"

With this jump, he just bumped into Ning Fan.

Ning Fan was unprepared and lost his balance all of a sudden, wanting to fall to the side.

Her eyes widened, and she wanted to control her body, but Ning Yizhou seemed to be against her, changed the direction again, and bumped into her again.

"Who! Why squeeze my ancestor again!"

Ning Fan: "..."

This time she was completely off balance.

At this moment, a refreshing mint smell suddenly appeared, refreshing the sticky and turbid air instantly.

Immediately, something warm touched her lower back gently.

Ning Fan pushed his hands forward subconsciously, and his fingertips touched the delicate fabric of the clothes, as well as the cool metal-like chain.

After she stood still, the temperature at the back of her waist suddenly disappeared without any extra stay.

At the same time, a clear voice that could not be concealed even if it was deliberately suppressed sounded in his ears.

"Be careful."

This voice is different from Ning Yizhou's beating and Liang Qi's vitality, like mint sparkling water in summer, refreshing with a sense of impact that cannot be ignored.

It seems that the bottom of my heart is also poured into sparkling water, with fine and dense bubbles.

After Ning Fan stood firm, he quickly came back to his senses and took a step back slightly.

"Thank you."

But there was no response from that person.

In the darkness, she looked around, but she didn't see the suspected figure of the person just now.

She was slightly taken aback, and the man left just like that.

Ning Fan recalled the guests she saw just now, none of them matched the characteristics she felt just now.

It feels like that person is about the same age as Ning Yizhou, but much more stable than Ning Yizhou.

Just thinking about this, Ning Yizhou's anxious voice suddenly came from behind.

"Old Ancestor, are you alright? I drove away all the people who crowded towards you! There was another person deliberately leaning this way, and I was blown away!"

Ning Fan thought of what happened when he hit him twice just now, took a deep breath, and forcibly suppressed the thought of blowing his dog's head off.

Although it can't be blown up, it can still be hit.

Thinking of this, she raised her hand and hit Ning Yizhou precisely on the back of the head.

Even in a noisy environment, crisp sound can still be heard.

Ning Yizhou let out a groan, and looked at Ning Fan with some grievances, "Why did you hit me?"

Ning Fan hooked the corners of his lips at him, and spoke every word.

"Because it was me you pushed away just now."

Ning Yizhou: "..."

Although the netizens in the live broadcast room didn't see what happened just now, the conversation between the two made them remember the whole process.

【Hahahahahahaha, so Erha thought that Sister Fan was a guest who squeezed over on purpose, and then got kicked away? 】

[No, I seem to have heard someone say something beside Sister Fan just now, and the voice sounds quite scary! 】

[I remembered, it seemed like I said something to meddle in my own business, and then I felt I heard Sister Fan's exclamation, it couldn't be the owner of the previous fake, right? 】

[Holy shit, it's possible. I just said I was going to leave, but I have been hiding by the side and looking for a chance to get revenge. 】

[Oh my god, luckily I went through the security check when I entered the venue, otherwise it would be terrible if I brought a sharp weapon! 】

【That person is really disgusting, he shouldn't be let off so easily, I don't know if Sister Fan was injured. 】

[But it seems that besides that voice, there is another soft and vague voice that helped Sister Fan. Sister Fan also thanked her, but that voice seems a little familiar, but I can't remember where I heard it again. 】

【Why?I didn't hear this, did you hear it wrong? 】

[It's also possible that it was really too chaotic just now, and I was worried that it would turn into a stampede if it continued. 】

[But why hasn't it healed after so long, it's not a matter of doing things on purpose, right? 】

【The Phantom Thief and the Phantom didn’t appear...】

At this moment, the venue suddenly brightened.

The noisy guests suddenly quieted down, and everyone closed their eyes subconsciously.

After a while, I slowly opened my eyes after getting used to the bright spots.

Everyone is still at a loss, not knowing whether the short few minutes just now were an illusion or really happened.

However, before everyone came back to their senses, the voice of the supporter spread throughout the venue through the microphone.

The screams were mixed with harsh electric currents, making everyone subconsciously frown and cover their ears.

But even so, I still heard the host's words.

"The collection is missing?!"

Hearing this, everyone including Ning Fan suddenly looked up at the booth.

The red cloth covering the cabinet fell to the ground, and the transparent glass cabinet that was supposed to hold the finale collection.

It was empty at this time.

The host was so anxious that he almost cried, "Well, I didn't notice when it disappeared!"

The security guards who were in charge of protecting the collection were also stupid, and they didn't know it at all!

The guests present were noisy again.

"The collection is missing?!"

"Could it be taken away just now? Who is it?"

At the same time, the communication equipment in the whole venue has returned to normal.

The security captain listened to the sound coming from the earphone, his face was serious, he pressed the earphone with one hand, and said in a low voice, "Got it."

After finishing speaking, he strode to the platform, took the microphone in the host's hand, and his deep voice resounded loudly.

"Madam has an order, no one is allowed to leave until the collection is retrieved!"

The guests who were just surprised at first turned into anger this time.

"Not allowed to leave? Why? We didn't take it!"

"Yes, what qualifications do you have to prevent us from leaving! You are under illegal house arrest!"

"If you have time, you should find the person who took the collection. What's the use of not letting us go!"

"And who are you, why can you represent Madam?"

Facing the doubts of the guests, the security captain did not give in at all. He spoke again, and his voice overwhelmed the audience.

"I advise everyone, instead of having time to attack me here, it is better to look at the people around you. If someone finds the person who stole the collection, Madam will prepare a generous thank you."

These words silenced everyone, of course they knew about Madam's strength, since it was a generous thank you gift from Madam, it must have been beyond their imagination.

While everyone was denouncing the security guards, Ning Fan had already taken Ning Yizhou and Liang Qi to find an empty corner.

And the netizens in the live broadcast room also heard these words.

[Fuck, shit, shit, the collection is actually lost!Really Phantom Thief! 】

[What kind of strange thief, I think it is a guest, but I didn't expect that the dogs really guessed it right! 】

[But this lady is so powerful, she just won't let anyone leave, it's absolutely courageous! 】

[But is it useful to keep everyone here?What if someone has already run away? 】

[Probably not, didn't the security guards stand at the door just now, no one should have left, and the entry just now seems to have been registered, just check the identity against it. 】

【However, since that person is so well prepared, he should have already planned his escape route. 】

[Hey, it's hard to find. 】

Ning Yizhou looked at the empty cabinet and couldn't help shaking his head, "Sure enough, we guessed right just now, someone deliberately broke the circuit."

"But who is it? Normally, shouldn't all the people invited by Madam know their identities? Isn't it too easy to expose?"

Liang Qi clicked his tongue, "Didn't it mean that Madam has been collecting this collection for a while, in case someone prepares a fake identity in advance, just for this time?"

As they said that, the two looked at each other, and then at Ning Fan at the same time.

"Old Ancestor/Sister Fan, what do you think?"

Ning Fan crossed his arms and leaned casually against the wall.

Hearing what the two said, she rolled her eyelids, "Hmm... It's true that the person who took the collection is among the guests, but in this environment, it is not easy to escape."

Ning Yizhou blinked, curious, "Then we'll wait with you too? If we don't find it tomorrow morning, wouldn't we miss the variety show?"

Ning Fan rolled his eyes, "Of course we have to wait. You can't miss such an interesting event. As for Director Song..."

"Just say no."

Ning Yizhou thought for a while, "That's right, anyway, the results will be announced tomorrow morning, you must have won, it doesn't matter if you go or not."

While they were chatting, the guests present were still clamoring to leave, but the surrounding security guards were indifferent.

The staff who were originally standing in a fixed position also began to get busy walking in and out.

While Ning Fan was watching the excitement, the security captain walked up to her with a few staff members.

Ning Fan looked at them without moving, but raised his eyebrows.

The security captain lowered his eyebrows and spoke compliantly.

"Miss, madam, please go over."
