“Prime Minister, they have discovered the Peking Man’s skull at the farm!” the secretary announced, urgency apparent in their voice.

“What is this object?” the Prime Minister asked, his face reflecting bewilderment.

The object in question was known as the Peking Man’s skull, an ancient remnant that once stunned the world.

“This object,” the secretary clarified, “is the remains of an upright human that once captured global attention!”

The secretary then methodically relayed the intricate details of the discovery.

“Damn it,” the Prime Minister muttered. “Now we cannot clear our names. They asked about its whereabouts, and we claimed ignorance!”

“Now, this object has appeared here within our borders!” he added, despair in his voice.

The Prime Minister was immediately aware of the gravity of the situation. They had denied possession of the item, sparking suspicion from other parties, particularly the United States. Now that the item had surfaced, they had managed to offend all involved.

“I think we can place all the blame on the owner of this farm,” someone ventured.

“But do you think it would be easy for a private individual to acquire the Peking Man’s skull from the military? We must have acquired it first, and then one of our own must have stolen it.”

In other words, when the United States facilitated the transportation of the item, soldiers from the Land of Cherry Blossoms intercepted it, and the traitorous farm owner switched it out.

Deep inside, the Prime Minister knew that they had taken the skull, only for it to vanish mysteriously later on. Now, shockingly, it had turned out to be the farm owner’s doing.

“Even if we had a hundred mouths to argue, the whole world knows that we took this skull, yet we claimed not to know its whereabouts!” The Prime Minister’s voice rang out as he slammed the table in frustration.

The farm owner had become a menace within the country. If the item had remained with the Land of Cherry Blossoms’ officials, its existence would have remained secret.

Within a mere half-hour, two events had ignited international attention.

First, the shocking reappearance of the Peking Man’s skull.

Second, the Land of Cherry Blossoms’ almost laughable claim of ignorance regarding the object.

When the United States transported the item, alleging that soldiers had intercepted it, what credible explanation could exist now that it had surfaced in the Land of Cherry Blossoms? Claiming ignorance was a ludicrous excuse.

Elsewhere, Luo Feng continued his examination of the artifacts on the farm.

After several days of inspection, the vast collection of 100,000 artifacts was finally being loaded onto trucks.

“Prime Minister, Luo Feng is about to leave!” the secretary warned urgently.

“If we don’t act now, it will be too late!”

The Prime Minister paused to think, then responded, “It is too late, and we cannot risk further action, not with international opinion so squarely against us. If we make another move like this, how will we explain ourselves?”

The prior incident with the skull had already cast them as thieves, a role they had vehemently denied. Could they possibly play the thief again? “Little Luo, are you returning home now?” Long Jianfei inquired at the dock.

“Yes, I must transport these items back. I cannot trust anyone else. Wait for me in Kobe!” Luo Feng responded firmly. “Will you return?”

“Of course, you know what I mean!”

“Good!” Long Jianfei said, instantly grasping Luo Feng’s intentions.

Luo Feng knew that other locations remained undiscovered, and he would undoubtedly return.

Overhearing a private conversation between Luo Feng and Long Jianfei, the Prime Minister hatched a plan: “When Luo Feng discovers the artifacts, we’ll play ‘the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind’ strategy to claim those artifacts for ourselves.”

In other words, he would let Luo Feng locate the treasures, thinking they were his, only to invoke a legal clause to claim them for the nation.

After careful thought, the Prime Minister amended his plan: “Perhaps it’s safer to cancel his visa after he returns home. With our resources in the Land of Cherry Blossoms, we should find the treasures ourselves.”

The secretary nodded in agreement and confidently added, “I can assure you that if the items are indeed here, we will find them!”

“Set sail, transport the artifacts home!” Luo Feng commanded, excitement in his face, as he settled into a large cargo ship.

The trip had finally ended safely.

Upon returning home, the nation’s collection of relics would be enriched by an incredible 100,000 pieces, significantly enhancing domestic research and the diversity ot artitacts.

This journey had indeed been worth every effort!
