Chapter 261: Chapter 261: Zhou Tao Receives the News

Gradually, the old men in the small team on the Jiang City River bank opposite Ye Chen also came to their senses.

They rubbed their eyes, their expressions stunned as they gazed at the glittering gold bars inside the box.

Everyone’s face was filled with shock and amazement.

Goodness gracious!

Talk about speaking it into existence.

What was said just now?

Unless this box is filled with gold, it’s impossible for it to be worth seven figures!

Who would have thought they’d actually call it!

For a moment, they were unsure whether to marvel at their own word-following magic or to marvel at Teacher Ye’s ludicrous luck...

Meanwhile, the audience in the live stream room, separated by their phone screens,

could see that the contents of the box were gleaming. Nevertheless, they quickly recognized the gold bars inside.

When the over a million viewers in the live stream room saw this box of gold bars, the place exploded into chaos.

"Holy shit!!! Teacher Ye is awesome!!!"

"Are we witnessing a fortune made here? Teacher Ye is too cool, the number one fisherman to riches!"

"This is absolutely outrageous, what did Teacher Ye say just now? He mentioned the box was worth over seven figures and I didn’t believe it at all, but in the end, the joke’s on me!"

"This is insane, do you think Teacher Ye already knew it was full of gold bars?"

"Eyeballing it, this box of gold bars weighs about five kilograms, right? Calculating its value... it’s about 1.3 million?"

"Holy shit, I am so jealous, when can I ever go fishing and catch gold bars!"

"Magic bait brother, the streamer is really something, fishing out gold bars with mud, what kind of mysticism is this?"

"Forget it, I’m going to fish with mud as bait tomorrow. I want to experience the joy of fishing out gold bars, not because of the 1.3 million, but just for the pure happiness of it!"

"Hahaha, as expected, Teacher Ye is performing as usual, not catching fish but ending up with a box full of gold bars!"

"Isn’t this more thrilling than fishing? Brothers, it’s 1.3 million we’re talking about, how many fish do you need to catch to match that value?"

"Indeed... but I feel like it can’t be this simple, right? How is the streamer going to handle these gold bars?"

"You have a point, does any knowledgeable brother know whether you can keep gold bars for yourself if you find them in the wild?"

Just as the audience in the live stream room was curious about the ownership of the gold bars in the box.

A user with the ID "Outlaw Zhang San" in Ye Chen’s live stream room, sent a message.

"According to our country’s regulations, failing to return a lost item found can constitute embezzlement, refusing to return it can lead to two to five years of fixed-term imprisonment and a fine..."

When everyone in the live stream room saw the message from "Outlaw Zhang San," they were all taken aback.

"Holy crap?? Isn’t that Teacher Zhang San?"

"Even Outlaw is here, could it be that Teacher Zhang San is also a fan of Teacher Ye?"

"Hahaha, I’m dead, Teacher Zhang San truly is someone you can’t afford to offend, now that Teacher Zhang San has spoken, Teacher Ye, you should just turn in these gold bars!"

"Teacher Ye, you’re in danger, you’ve got Zhang San’s attention now!"

"Hot potato, Teacher Ye, you should just hand over the box of gold bars to the sir!"

"No choice, if you keep it for yourself, you’ll probably end up behind bars for good!"

"Teacher Ye, look back!!!"

Outlaw Zhang San, known as the most famous and capable lawyer on the internet.

His appearance undoubtedly brought Ye Chen’s live broadcast to a climax.

For a moment, many were speculating whether "Outlaw Zhang San" is also a fishing enthusiast.

And on-site.

Ye Chen was also discussing with everyone the ownership of this box of gold.

"What do you guys think, these gold bars are also part of my catch, should be fine for me to take them, right?"

Ye Chen looked at the box of gold bars, eager to take action.

Old Liao, also not thinking too much, with a lecherous scheme in mind, grinned slyly: "Heh heh heh..."

"You know, Teacher Ye, we are all witnesses, shouldn’t you give us some hush money?"

Old Zhang, upon seeing the box of gold bars, couldn’t wait to join in.

"That’s right, that’s right, Teacher Ye, you owe us a fancy dinner at a big hotel tonight!"

Watching everyone wanting to claim the gold bars for themselves.

Liao Xuexue helplessly slapped her forehead: "Teacher Ye, if you’re not afraid of sitting through a lengthy jail sentence, then go ahead and take this box of gold."

Upon hearing Liao Xuexue’s words, Ye Chen seemed suddenly reminded of something.

He chuckled embarrassedly and waved his hands: "Heh heh, just kidding, don’t take it seriously."

"This box of gold bars is no small amount, and as citizens of Hua Country, upon discovering such a suspiciously large asset, we naturally need to contact the sir!"

Liao Xuexue and the many old men, after hearing Ye Chen’s righteous words, couldn’t help but roll their eyes at him in disdain.

You make it sound so noble.

Who was it, just a while ago, drooling over this box of gold bars...

So, as suggested by everyone, they still made the call to the police.

No help for it, the origin of these gold bars was unknown, and though they were Ye Chen’s catch, he didn’t dare to keep them for himself.

...

Meanwhile, at the Jiang City Police Station, Zhou Tao was busy working and sitting at his office desk, looking at the case files.

Suddenly, Wang Feiyun, a newcomer to the police team, hurried into the office.

He was panting heavily, came to Zhou Tao, and looked utterly out of breath.

"Zhou... Zhou, Captain Zhou!"

"What’s with the panic?" Zhou Tao glanced at Wang Feiyun with irritation.

This new graduate and rookie sir, though spirited and passionate in his work,

is clumsy and immature.

It seems he needs more time to mature and settle down.

"Captain Zhou, we just received a call, the informer said, someone at the Golden Peak Mountain Pond has fished out a box full of gold bars!"

"What did you say?"

"Someone at the Golden Peak Mountain Pond has caught a box full of gold bars!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Tao’s eyes twitched fiercely.

For a moment, a familiar face flashed through his mind.

It couldn’t be that guy again, could it?

But...

He didn’t have time to think about it right now.

After taking a sip of water, he hastily asked, "Xiao Wang, how much do the gold bars weigh?"

"Five kilograms!"

Boom!

Five kilograms of gold bars, exactly matching the weight of the gold bars stolen from a major gold heist that occurred 22 years ago and which they were investigating!

Could this be a coincidence or something else...

Suddenly, Zhou Tao’s face tensed, then he stood up: "Call the team together immediately, we’re heading to Golden Peak Mountain Pond!"
