Chapter 4 4. Leather Throne
As the sun sets, the sun shines on the streets of Flagstaff City, illuminating the small buildings and small apartments more and more exquisitely.
Hans drove his Ford F150 on the road at high speed. It was time to get off work, and the road was full of traffic, but the Ford F150 was fast and kept overtaking.
Li Du exclaimed: "Be careful, Hans, can you drive slowly?"
Hans glared at him: "Then can you eat pizza slower? Damn, didn't you agree that three quarters belong to me? Also, don't call me by my name, call me Boss Fu, understand?!"
"Wrong, it's two-thirds!"
"OK, that's two-thirds, but why are there only two yuan left now? You ate six yuan! You ate three-quarters!"
Li Du smiled awkwardly, manipulating Xiao Chong to consume energy, he was so hungry.
The location of the warehouse is in the northeast corner of Qigan City. It is a wasteland that has opened up a land of about a hundred acres. There are hundreds of warehouses built on it, which are neatly arranged, square and orderly.
When the car stopped, there was only one piece left in the pizza box, and Hans yelled, "Damn, when did you eat another piece?!"
Li Du pretended not to hear, and went to look at the advertisement board at the entrance of the warehouse company. There was a large white paper posted on it, which read:

He hadn't been to a warehouse auction, so everything was new to him.
But Hans watched too much, he wolfed down the pizza, and said impatiently: "Okay, Chinese boy, don't waste time, I'll take you in and have a look."
Li Du said: "Be patient, Hans..."
"Call me Boss Fu, as long as you are at the auction, no matter when, please call me Boss Fu!" Hans said seriously.
"Then please don't call me a Chinese boy, call me Li!"
"Okay, Li, we're going in. But I don't understand why I'm going in. I told you that the owner is not allowed to enter the warehouse until the auction is over, and no one is allowed to enter at other times!"
Li Du looked around and said: "Be patient, Boss Fu, we have a slang saying in China, it's called 'If you don't sharpen your guns before the battle, you will be bright'. I don't fight uncertain battles. At least I have to investigate these warehouses before I can make a choice."
Hans pointed to a row of warehouses and said: "The eight warehouses belonged to the manager of an insurance company before. This guy's lumbar spine is not good, so he bought a very expensive massage chair, and he kept it in this warehouse. , but no one knows which of the eight it is."
"Then why didn't he want it?" Li Du asked as he walked to the first warehouse.
He summoned Xiao Chong from the bottom of his heart, then spread out his right hand, Xiao Chong poked its head out from his palm, quickly crawled out and jumped to the ground.
"I don't know, they may have made a fortune, and they went to Los Angeles to live in a mansion." Hans said.
Li Du nodded. At this moment, he replaced Xiao Chong's consciousness and controlled Xiao Chong to enter the warehouse.
The warehouse as a whole is made of cement masonry and is closed with rolling shutter doors, which can be said to be airtight.
But the bug didn't have any difficulty getting in, just like it could get into Li Du's palm, it could pass through anything freely, no matter it was a wall or a door.
Another great point is that Xiao Chong's eyes don't need light to see everything clearly, even if the warehouse is extremely dark, it doesn't affect Li Du's search.
But he didn't have much time, according to experiments, he could control the bug for at most five minutes, and then he was exhausted and needed a lot of sleep and food to restore his energy.
On the way, he thought for a while, let's take a quick look today, and take a quick scan. If a warehouse allocates one minute, then he has a five-eighth chance of finding this massage chair.
This chance is not low!
The little worm only has two short legs, so it can't be fast. Fortunately, it has the ability to pass through all obstacles, and can shuttle in the warehouse.
Li Du prayed that the massage chair was not in a very conspicuous place, otherwise Xiao Chong would have found it in vain:
According to the rules of the warehouse auction, all bidders on the auction day can line up and stand outside the door to see the things in the warehouse. They are not allowed to enter the door, let alone touch it.
In this way, Xiaochong entered warehouse No. 202. He scanned around first, but he didn't see the massage chair, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
The warehouse area is very large, and it is full of sundries, including valuable things such as bicycles, motorcycle parts, tires, and wrenches, as well as worthless things such as garbage bags, broken furniture, and scrap wood.
But there is no big massage chair he asked for.
Hans told him that this massage chair is a flagship product of the American Kessler Machinery Health Care Company. It is a flagship massage chair, just like a health care warehouse, very large and luxurious.
This is not a small thing, so Li Du doesn't need to search carefully, as long as he looks for the right warehouse, he will definitely find it.
Moreover, this massage chair is big enough, and there are not many hidden spaces that can accommodate it. Li Du mainly looks for it under the canvas, in corners, or in large boxes. Only these places have room to accommodate it.
It was the first time to control Xiao Chong to do such a tedious job, but Li Du still didn't control his time well, and wasted a little more time in the two warehouses behind.
Entering the fourth warehouse, Li Du sighed wearily, seeing that he was running out of time, and prepared to take Xiao Chong back to rest.
At this time, Xiao Chong got into a tarpaulin. It was just about to pass through it, and then when it looked up, a large leather chair with smooth curves and dazzling shapes appeared in the field of vision!
The chair may be more than two meters high and one meter wide. It has a golden synthetic plastic shell on the outside, and is covered with brown-yellow cowhide inside. There are LCD screens on the two armrests, which are extremely luxurious!
Seeing this chair, Li Du heaved a sigh of relief: No wonder Hans said he could make a lot of money with this thing, this is not a chair, this is a throne!
