When 'God' Decides To Start Over-Chapter 899 - 351: Threat

"If Jiuxiao Yun was found by Han Minghui, would she still blatantly show me the Samurai Star?" Li Xiu raised his head to look at Han Minghui.

Hearing Li Xiu mention the name of the Samurai Star, Han Minghui smiled and said, "Commander Li truly has a good eye, to pick out the Samurai Star among so many gemstones at a glance. You must already know the origin of this gemstone."

"I really don't know, it's just that the name seems interesting. From Vice President Han's words, this Samurai Star seems to have quite a background?" Li Xiu said without giving anything away.

Han Minghui said, "Indeed, it has quite a history. This Samurai Star is a golden green Cat's Eye gemstone from Earth. There are many kinds of Cat's Eye gemstones, but the one that truly stands alongside rubies, sapphires, diamonds, and emeralds as the five great gemstones is this golden green Cat's Eye. The Samurai Star Cat's Eye gemstone also goes by the name Cat's Eye; it is much larger than any known golden green Cat's Eye gemstone on the market. However, only a few people know of its existence, so it is not famous. But those who do know it know that the Samurai Star is the king among golden green Cat's Eye gemstones, and it is also a Demon Spirit Gemstone."

"There seems to be quite a story behind it," Li Xiu said.

Han Minghui laughed and said, "Indeed, there have been some stories involving the Samurai Star. However, it's not just the Samurai Star. In fact, it was mined along with five other Cat's Eye gemstones, making a total of six, with the Samurai Star being the largest. After these six Cat's Eye gemstones were discovered, they triggered a mysterious case that remains unsolved to this day."

Han Minghui narrated the so-called unsolved case in detail. Where exactly the six Cat's Eye gemstones were mined can no longer be verified.

The known first owner of them was a gemstone thief. After stealing the six Cat's Eye gemstones, the thief planned to retire and leave the trade.

But on the day the gemstone thief planned to retire, he was found hanging from the chandelier in the living room, and to this day, no one knows how the gemstone thief actually died.

At the retirement ceremony, six people were present: a business partner of the gemstone thief who had been like a brother for decades; the thief's biological daughter; and the rest were apprentices adopted by the thief.

Before the ceremony started, they were chatting with the gemstone thief in the living room. When the ceremony was about to begin, the thief went to change clothes. The next time they saw him, he was hanging from the chandelier in the living room.

At that time, everyone had an alibi; no one had been alone with the thief, and there was no sign of any outsiders entering. The murderer has not been found until now.

"After the gemstone thief's death, the six Cat's Eye gemstones disappeared, and the thief's descendants have been pursuing the whereabouts of the Cat's Eyes. Whoever holds a Cat's Eye might be the one who killed the thief," Han Minghui said with a smile.

"How did the largest Samurai Star end up with you?" Li Xiu asked Han Minghui.

"Rest assured, Commander Li. I have nothing to do with that gemstone thief's death. The Samurai Star came into my possession by chance. Knowing that the thief's descendants have been looking for it, I kept it hidden away. If Commander Li fancies it, I would immediately present it to you with both hands."

"If I take the Samurai Star, won't the thief's descendants come looking for trouble with me?"

"No, they won't," Han Minghui said with a smile. "Among the gemstone thief's descendants, the most important branch has a current heir who is under your command."

"So Jiuxiao Yun is the descendant of that gemstone thief." Li Xiu had already guessed this and pretended to suddenly realize it.

"That's right, Jiuxiao Yun's family has been searching for the Samurai Star for many years. Even if Commander Li doesn't use it, you can give it to Jiuxiao Yun's family, and I'm sure they will reward you handsomely," Han Minghui said.

Li Xiu saw that Han Minghui seemed completely unaware that someone had used the Samurai Star to hire Jiuxiao Yun, making it hard to judge whether she was being wronged or just a good actor.

"What have you considered, Commander Li?" Han Minghui couldn't help but ask again.

"The items are indeed good, but I need to think about it. I'll give the Vice President my answer some other day; how does that sound?" Li Xiu said.

"Of course, I'll be waiting to hear from you," Han Minghui said, standing up to take her leave.

After escorting Han Minghui to the door, Li Xiu saw Li Xianchun standing outside.

Han Minghui gave Li Xianchun a cold glance, said nothing more, and turned to leave.

Li Xiu brought Li Xianchun into the living room. Li Xianchun looked at the tea set left uncollected from hosting Han Minghui and said, "Commander Li, I presume you haven't decided who to sell the Divine Position Gemstone to yet?"

"I haven't decided yet," Li Xiu replied casually.

"If I were Commander Li, owning such an unparalleled treasure, I wouldn't hesitate. After all, someone like me would probably never see a second Divine Position Gemstone in my lifetime, so how could I bear to sell it?" Li Xianchun said with a smile.

"What does Patriarch Li mean?" Li Xiu asked with a slight frown.

Li Xianchun said indifferently, "Commander Li retrieved that President Jade Token from Space City. I wonder if it is still with you?"
