Chapter 1667
Chapter 1667: A New Beginning (7)
Lu Nanze jumped up from his reclining chair and quickly shouted, “Who’s that?!”
That dark silhouette froze and slowly looked up.
The thief had shut off all the lights except for a night light.
Under the dim light, Lu Nanze saw that this person had on a silver mask that covered the top half of the face. The only visible parts were an exquisite chin and red luscious lips.
The figure was wearing a black bodysuit and seemed like a being of the night. It was set off by its lanky and frail figure. It was obvious this was a woman.
Her dark silky hair was drawn back into a ponytail that sat high on her head, making her look devilishly charming.
Lu Nanze’s pupils shrank back immediately as he mouthed the word, “Traceless?!”
After many years in this world, Lu Nanze had connections with some alternative sources and people of power. Some were legendary characters, like the expert thief that went by the name Traceless.
She was named thus because she would never leave a trace of evidence in her missions. Police and private detectives alike had never been able to track her down because she had never left a trail behind.
Traceless never really got in the way of the law destructively. She was neither an upright character, nor an evil person. She just did as she pleased, free and easy.
Sometimes she stole for the thrill of it, sometimes it was just to challenge herself.
Her only motivation to steal was her own will. No matter what she stole, she would only charge 10 000 dollars.
In addition, she followed a professional rule, one job a month.
There had been attempts to entice her with high offers, but she had rejected them all.
Lu Nanze had heard of her, but he had minded their own business all along. Hence, this had been their first confrontation ever.
However, Lu Nanze narrowed his eyes.
Although his family had once mingled with the underworld, they had stayed clean in the recent years.
Especially ever since his father destroyed the Qiao Family and became second to none, they had stayed clean. So what was Traceless doing in his home and what was she here to steal?
And who had hired her?!
What was there worth stealing in his study?!
As he asked himself these questions, he saw her break into a devilishly charming smile—a curve of her luscious lips, which were left uncovered by the mask.
Following this, she extended her hand. In it was the bracelet that he had wanted to give Qiao Lian at her wedding half a year ago.
That was the only thing he had left to remember Qiao Lian.
Instantly, Lu Nanze was anxious and he shouted, “Return that to me!”
He lunged forward at her.
Lu Nanze had been trained in martial arts and had earned his place in the underworld.
In a flash, he was next to Traceless. He reached out to grab her wrist tightly and said with cold disdain, “Is that all the infamous Traceless of the underworld is capable of?”
As he said this, he reached for the bracelet in an attempt to take it back.
But suddenly, Traceless’ wrist softened as though there was not a single bone in it. She immediately freed her hand as her other hand flew directly at his face with two of her fingers aimed at his eyes.
Lu Nanze retreated quickly to avoid the attack and, as he did so, Traceless dashed towards the window at the speed of light.
The window was opened.
Like an alert rabbit, she jumped on the window.
Lu Nanze tried to charge at her, but it was too late.
He watched helplessly as Traceless stood on the window and suddenly turned around.
She raised her hands to make the gesture of a pistol. Then kissing it mockingly, she aimed the imaginary pistol at him and mouthed the word “bang.”
She jumped off the window ledge and disappeared.
